I think it boils down to the fact that in order to not appear hypocritical, liberals denounce all standards of behavior, therefore, one can never be accused of not living up to those standards.

One word for y’all:

Mancrush.

I think I figured it out. This guy used to write copy in North Korea for Kim Jong-Il, but for some reason he was fired. Now he’s writing on spec for another Maximum Leader.

I guess that POS rag is looking to go out of business soon. What a piece of crap article.

[a fool in paradise]

Born in 1976. So he doesn’t remember the Carter years.

To the author, I say: “Speak for yourself, you pathetic liberal mouthpiece.”

Yep...looks like the lapdog media is ramping up its Oboingo re-election campaign work.

[rlmorel]

Reading this really, REALLY tweaked me.

I don’t give a rat’s patootie if liberals want to say Barack Obama is just like them.

Fine. It is on them.

But the arrogance and presumption to say that he is like “us” is insulting in the extreme. Words and deeds still MEAN something in my world.

Damn this man, all he stands for, and the people who worship him. Damn them.

[Allegra]

Damn this man, all he stands for, and the people who worship him. Damn them.

My sentiments exactly.

There are not words to convey how much I despise that arrogant, nasty socialist and his minions.

[rlmorel]

Probably why I felt so insulted when I read it.

Funny...when I am driving down the road, and come up behind a car like this:

I have this urge to pass the car, to see if the person looks like a liberal. Comically, they never disappoint...they all look the part! (I know, I know...)

I had to look this guy up, and...not at all surprised. He looks the part.

Thx for the link -- now we can all laugh.

I always thought good satire let the reader off the hook at some point.

Oh, wait, that's good satire.

Bad satire has to have somebody else tell you it's satire on a webpage.

Thx for your message. Now someone may understand what you think you are saying.

Thx for your extraordinary expenditure of effort in writing such an essay to let us off the hook in trying to figure out what the hell you think you are saying.

Or, is it just satire? Or should I assume you have a journalism degree from an Ivy league school.
