During the Bush years, many liberals had BDS, Bush Derangement Syndrome. I wonder how many conservatives have ODS, Obama Derangement Syndrome. Sure, the guy is more liberal and he's spending way more money on even more wasteful programs, but it isn't as though Bush was much better. Plus, Bush laid the groundwork for Obama. There were conservatives blasting Bush, but most of the party rallied around him. Obama is like 130% McCain. Videos like the one below might suddenly be popular, but if John McCain had won, he'd be effectively destroying just as much of America, except conservatives would cheer it and liberals would scream that it wasn't enough spending and McCain was abusing government power.
And many conservatives are still singing the same tune. Just last week at CPAC, Mitt Romney won with 20%! It's encouraging that Ron Paul tied Sarah Palin with 13%, and Bobby Jindal had 14%, but I don't know enough about Palin or Jindal. I do know, however, that Romney is a liberal who went along with universal health care in Massachusetts. In sum, I'm not going to listen to anyone who gets angry at Obama for doing 130% of what they voted for and/or continue to support.
