Letter: Obama can expect same treatment Bush received
To the editor:
The selective memory of liberals never ceases to amaze me. In the midst of a Sound Off whine, the commentator labeled "No Democrats?" bleated, "Why are people so mean and hateful of this future president? I don't understand this. Give the guy a chance."
Give Obama a chance? Let's take a walk down memory lane. Remember the screams that Bush stole the 2000 election? That he was poisoning children by putting arsenic in the water? That he was killing millions by not funding stem-cell research?
Remember the bumper stickers? "He's not MY president!" "Somewhere in Texas a village is missing its idiot." "Re-Defeat Bush" and, of course, the ubiquitous "1-20-09."
Let's remember the supposed "loyal opposition" — Harry Reid on the floor of the Senate screaming that the war in Iraq was "lost," Jack Murtha slandering an innocent platoon of Marines as cold-blooded murderers and Washington Congressman Jim McDermott telling CNN "I trust Saddam Hussein more than I trust George Bush."
Have you forgotten Nancy Pelosi traveling to Syria to meet with Bashir Assad, or Jimmy Carter groveling to Hugo Chavez, both insisting they had as much right to conduct foreign policy as the elected president of the United States?
Or let's just talk plain slander — "BusHitler," "Bush Lied, People Died," "Bush is a cocaine freak." "Bush is a dry drunk." "Bush is a fascist." "Bush knew Sept. 11 was going to happen." Just for fun, why not Google "chimp" or "chimpy Bush."
You'll find thousands of Web sites comparing George Bush to a monkey, or slamming him as a subliterate moron who can't even tie his own shoes.
For the last eight years, the Democrats have blackmailed this country. "Put us in office," they made it clear, "or we will ruin you. We will lie. We will give aid and comfort to the enemy. We will leak top-secret intelligence to the New York Times. We will use organizations like Code Pink and CAIR to funnel money and weapons to the Iraqi resistance. We will slime George Bush at every turn and do our best to destroy his administration." But now that B. Hussein Obama has been elected, people like "No Democrats?" think we should just shrug our shoulders and fall in line?
Sorry, no. Your filthy party has poisoned the political well, and it's long past time you had a good stiff dose poured down your throats. "Dissent is the highest form of patriotism!" you screamed incessantly, and so I plan to dissent.
Obama is not my president. I do not wish him well. I will laugh at his mistakes and cheer his stumbles. I want the GOP to block, hinder and slam him at every turn. I want him driven from office four years from now a broken man with his administration in ruins.
In short, I want Obama given the same respect and deference that Democrats have given George Bush since November of 2000.

I'm thinking this guy read Coulter's Column from a couple of weeks ago
In short, I want Obama given the same respect and deference that Democrats have given George Bush since November of 2000.
To: Syncro“In the spirit of reaching across the aisle, we owe it to the Democrats to show their president the exact same kind of respect and loyalty that they have shown our recent Republican president.”
DITTOS ON THAT!! Ann nails it!!

I concur.
Great letter!
This guy really believes in turning it around to those that dished it out.Sorry, no. Your filthy party has poisoned the political well, and it's long past time you had a good stiff dose poured down your throats. "Dissent is the highest form of patriotism!" you screamed incessantly, and so I plan to dissent.
Can they take it?
Naw, they will whine and cry...
Sounds like reasonable and duly earned wants for the democrats and their president to me.

They will reap what they sow. Unfortunately it may be American cities that will lie in ruins because of Obama's liberal policies on national security. Then they will still scream that George Bush and not their precious President Obama is responsible for not protecting the country.
I feel sick already just thinking about it.
Fair and balanced.
I’m sure the Obamaites wouldn’t want it any other way...
Pinging you ‘cause I used your post in my comment after the letter.
Let’s see if the Obama voters take the “He Is Not My President” and “I Love My Country But I Fear My Government”
bumper stickers OFF their cars come 1/20...at which point,
frankly, they’d be better bumper stickers for US to have!
He’s a good writer. I wonder if he writes a column anywhere.
Look at Barney Frank and all the other politicians that “reaped” the money from Fannie and Freddie and won't own up to their responsibilities for the financial mess we are in now.
I love this! Thanks for sharing it. The treatment of our president has been a disgrace!
New tagline alert!
Hear, hear!
>>”Dissent is the highest form of patriotism!”
Madam Clinton, if you please:
“I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration, somehow you’re not patriotic, and we should stand up and say, “WE ARE AMERICANS AND WE HAVE A RIGHT TO DEBATE AND DISAGREE WITH ANY ADMINISTRATION!”
I’m not going to lay off Obama - the guy has already started working and look at his WISH LIST.
It’s a socialist’s paradise.
It’s funny to see Ann calling foul on the leftists’ treatment of Bush when you really couldn’t tell the difference between her and Randi Rhodes when it came to Bush during the Miers nomination. Now if it were someone like Bill Bennett pointing it out, then sure I’d buy that. But for Ann (or Ingraham or Malkin) to say that is hypocritical.
I don't know.
I did find This, don't know if it is the same guy or not
And history lesson #2, from Christopher DiGrazia:
CAUSA (MELVIN) BELLI by The Ripper"No blood for oil!" We hear the cry -
"No daddy's shrub sends us to die!"
But when it's Clinton, it would seem,
"Bomb the Balkans!" is the scream.
Oh Goodie! Does that mean we can start inserting the phrase “Barrack Obama’s failed policies” into every public statement we make starting January 21st just like the Democrats did eight years ago?
