[Vision2020] Obama

[keely emerinemix]

Gary, much of my own personal yammering -- kevetching, bemoaning, lamenting -- began right after the 2000 election, when it appeared that the guy who won Florida and thus got those electoral votes that put him over the top wasn't the guy who took the oath of office.  

I'd like to think that I and many other people kept yammering -- protesting, objecting, crying "foul" at every illegal, immoral, unethical turn -- for the full eight years following.  I consider that a noble occupation in response to the poisoning of the American wellspring that took place during that time.

While everyone who voted for "The One" is highly suspect, 
when I refer to obots I have in mind people such as Olbermann, Mathews, and 
folks such as this poor fool.

While I admire your purported willingness to cut GW slack in his early 
going many, including a few from this forum, started their yammering well 
before his oath was given, kept it up incessantly through all eight years, 
and haven't managed to let it go even now. To be of the opinion that many of 
these automatons are a might caught up in the wonderfulness that is Barry does 
not seem to me to be beyond the pale.

  As one who voted for President Obama, a couple of things.  Some on the 
  right insist on calling Obama voters "Obots", Mr. Obama himself as "The One", 
  the "Obamessiah", etc.  Claptrap.  I simply preferred the 
  Obama/Biden ticket to the McCain/Palin ticket.  I was not, and am not, 
  under any illusions that Barack Obama is "The One", that he is the picture of 
  perfection, and will cure all the nation's and society's ills.  Is he 
  flawed?  Sure. Will he do things I don't like? Undoubtedly. Will he do 
  things that the Rush Limbaughs and Ann (shudder) Coulters of the world won't 
  like?  No duh.  But he's not even been in office a week yet.  
  Even I, being (apparently) evil in the eyes of Mr. Limbaugh and Ms. Coulter 
  because of my moderately liberal leanings, was willing to give George W. Bush 
  a chance this early in his first term.  Oh, and completely off-topic, 
  great win last night Idaho!  Next up in the Dome Jan. 29th, Boise 
  State...... Carl Westberg Jr.
