The better way to understand the Left at this moment in time is to realize that they are the battered wives of politics.
The more that 0bama hurts them, the more that they will cling to him.
What, 0bama just legalized carrying loaded firearms in national parks?! Suddenly the fear and hatred that the entire Left had for expanding gun rights is gone.
It never existed. Their opposition to expanding gun rights was flushed down Orwell’s 1984 Memory Hole. Liberals no longer remember being against 0bama’s expansion of gun rights.
What, Gitmo is still open?! Memory hole.
What, the U.S. is still at war in Iraq?! Memory hole. Iraq is no longer in the news...no longer discussed among liberals when Leftists have lunch together.
What, 0bama broke his campaign promise to use only public campaign Dollars, and instead took in record sums of private donations?! Memory hole. Suddenly the Left no longer opposes privately funding elections.
What, 0bama just gave telecoms immunity to wiretap prosecutions after campaigning to *filibuster* such legislation?! Never mentioned again.
Memory hole.
The battered wives forget all of the bad. It’s how they are programmed.
They run frantically back to their husband-0bama, trampling over their sacred principles in the process.
I firmly believe that the real danger is here - clear and present.
The agenda is in full swing and the overt goal is to remove the ability to resist.
They will do this through control of information (already well underway), control of weapons (being made easier by”reasonable incrementalism” - coding of ammo and the like) and finally by removing mobility (facilitated by government control of vehicle production and the coming taxation of anything capable of moving more than two sheeple at a time.
We cannot wait for Obama to grow old with his enablers and fellow travelers.
