Lefties (and even some Mods) hate President Bush with a hatred so strong that the Conservatives' feeling over X-Clinton is relegated to dislike by comparison. The difference is, Conservatives had the entire history of X-Clinton's two terms as President, and all his time as Governor of Arkansas, upon which were based our conclusions about that man's character, motivation, and habit patterns. The evidence was on our side, yet the Left not only couldn't bring themselves to admit the truth about X-Clinton, they denied everything and defended him!
Why the unexplained and inexplicable HATRED of President Bush? Because he once drank to excess? Because his father was President before him? Because he is a Republican? There is no logic to their strong emotions against the President, and even no real basis for the emotion! Where does the hatred come from, and what fuels it? Why can it not be defeated with simple logic, a laying out of the evidence?
Though this group is smaller than it was pre-9/11, I don't think they can be brushed aside with quips about the Lefties' (and the Mods') intelligence. Something has drummed up this feeling, and keeps the fires of hatred burning despite evidence to the contrary. Is it just DU? Is it the media? Can it be explained Biblically, i.e., that the darkness shrinks from the light and that their minds have been given over to believe the lie since they have rejected the Truth?
It astounds me.
