Conservative backlash begins against Barack Obama

What's good for the goose is good for the gander?

Or...

Do unto others as they have done unto you?

Or...

How 'bout a taste of their own medicine?

Democrats took it upon themselves, as early as 2001 and proven by memos passed around within their ranks. that they would oppose anything that Bush did or proposed, especially in the nominating of judges.

They demonized and lied and use whatever means possible to stop Bush and republicans at every turn.

Now that the roles are reversed, let's see how republicans can play the game that the democrats played during the last 8 years.

The democrats held together and their leadership was able to get their members to follow in lock-step to stop Bush and to demonize and decry everything that Bush and republicans undertook. Even when some programs were what the democrats might have done themselves if they had been in power, such as the medicare drug program and the no-child-left-behind programs, the democrats made sure that neither Bush nor republicans gained any credit for them. They demonized the war-o-terror and the wars in Afghanistan and in Iraq, even after most of them voted to allow and fund those wars.

I say, let's play hardball.

I have little hope that the RINOs in in Congress will present the Messiah with any real opposition.
