HuffPo Blogger: Why Can’t Everyone Think Like Us?
As soon as I get on board with supporting our new president as any American should, I read something from the morons at the Huffington Post and that warm sense of patriotic bipartisanship washes away.
My biggest beef with an Obama presidency is not so much with Obama himself, but the far-left pinkos he empowers — people like HuffPo blogger Evan Handler.
Here’s Evan’s take on the election:
It’s good! It’s great! It’s all fantastic, and I’m thrilled! Really. I do mean it. But something seems to be escaping our attention amidst the exaltation. In spite of the wars, the lies, the torture, the stacking of the courts, and the rollbacks to civil liberties; in spite of the religious fundamentalism, the fanaticism, and the utter disdain toward the population that’s been expressed; in spite of the Katrina fiasco, the wire tapping, and the raping and pillaging of our economy for corporate gain (not to mention the ridiculousness and horrendous idiocy of the Republican campaign, including the Palin monstrosity) 56 million, 378 thousand, 316 Americans still voted for the other side.
To humanize that just a bit, that means that 56,378,316 individuals waited in line just as long as you did, and worked just as hard as anyone else, to try to make sure that Barack Obama would not become president of the United States. I don’t know about you, but that scares the shit out of me.
That is precisely the way the radical left looks at the world. They want a uniformity of thought which is why they try to silence any opposing viewpoints. They can’t understand why everyone doesn’t share their radical left-wing view of the world.
Evan goes on to write:
…if you’ve got some money stashed away in these economically stormy days, if you’ve got some major purchases anywhere on your horizon, time them out for the first ninety days of the new administration. Need a washer/dryer or an automobile? Thinking of buying a new home? Want to get back into the stock market? Hold off ’till after January 20th, and let the numbers show sudden economic improvement during the first three months of a new Democratic majority. Because I’ve got a sneaking suspicion that those 56,378,316 misguided souls aren’t the most sophisticated sailors on the sea.
I’m not suggesting we’d be successfully addressing any of the serious issues that need to be sorted out. But I am thinking that, if they’re crass enough, and easily hoodwinked enough, to have voted Republican after the last eight years, we might as well do a little psychological manipulation of our own. We might not be able to win their hearts and minds, or erase whatever bigotry led them to vote as they did. But we should be able to outwit them. Let ‘em read a few positive economic headlines just as they’re fearing the wrath of God is about to drop down upon us. Let ‘em think that, even if the “Godless,” “unreal” Americans have prevailed, it might be good for their pocketbooks. And then, maybe then, they might climb aboard the Peace Train.
I wish Evan’s incredibly cynical and misguided views were some kind of anomaly, but they’re not. The idea that anyone who voted against Obama is either stupid, racist, or both is shared by a large segment of the left.
The “liberal” party that is supposed to be all about tolerance and acceptance is actually the least tolerant among us. If you don’t vote like them and think like them, they don’t wanna have anything to do with you.
Which is why I think many well intentioned Americans who voted for Obama are gonna live to regret that decision. The luntatics have been let out of the asylum.
