The liberal blinders lift on Obama
The American Thinker ^ | June 18, 2010 | Tony Gallardo

Posted on 06/18/2010 3:04:17 AM PDT by Scanian

There is a lot moaning, groaning, and gnashing of teeth coming from the lefties these days. They are battering Barack Obama like a piñata; but just a few months ago they proclaimed him to be the Messiah, a Savior, a combination of George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Martin Luther King, a sort of god, and even, according to Chris Matthews, "...the last Kennedy brother." (Why Matthews thinks this is a compliment is mystery to me, but there you have it.)

This is mostly just about the oil spill, but at least the scales seem to be falling from their adoring eyes.

They are stunned to learn that the man they told us would heal the world, end all wars, restore America's image in the world, unify us as a kind of Disneyland where the meerkats, hyenas, lions, monkeys, and crocodiles would all live side by side in harmony singing "It's a small world after all" is in reality just another average, run of the mill political hack who doesn't know his "you know what" from a hole in the ground.

Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, Howard Fineman, James Carville, and Maureen Dowd simply cannot believe the incompetence of the man they once deified.

I take no comfort in the Fact that a Bunch of Anti American Slugs only realize what most of us have Known for a Long time .
Now we have to listen to the sages tell us what to do next.

They are stunned to learn that Obama really is an idiot and everyone else knew it.

Mostly, they are upset that he isn’t the One to finally perfect socialism and deliver the Marxist utopia to which they are all entitled.
