IMO, it simply boils down to one thing. An irrational burning, visceral hatred for George W Bush.
Yes, they can not believe that Bush was re-elected with even better numbers.
This elite also hates most other Americans, Christmas, Santa Claus, God, ...
Agreed. And why do they hate him?
1. It's all they've got.
2. By comparison, GWB shows up Clinton, the liberal icon, to be the worthless failure of a POTUS in every way that he was. RATS do not like that.
3. This may be the most important -- a successful Bush presidency will keep the liberals OUT OF POWER for the forseeable future. That terrifies them.
