We can already see a pattern emerging here. In just a week, those on the right are being called "racist" because we aren't rejoicing in the streets over our new 'black' president... never mind that he is 'biracial' and not black. But don't dare mention that, it means you are a racist if you do! Aside from these constant insidious snide remarks, we are inundated with the retorts and chortles of how he will be "better than Bush" in his administrative tenure. This is somewhat worrisome to me, that they have set the bar so low for parameters of judgment.
It essentially means, Obama will REALLY have to fuck things up, for pinhead liberals to ever admit he is not a good president. Bush got us into two 'unjust wars' so Obama can get us into one, and still be "better than Bush" ...We could invade Canada and steal all their oil, but that wouldn't be "as bad as Bush" in the liberals eyes. We've lost hundreds of thousands of jobs, if not millions, under the Bush presidency, so Obama can lose at least that many jobs, and not be "as bad as Bush" to the liberals. Under Bush, our national debt has soared, but unless it doubles in the next 4 years, it won't be "as bad as Bush" to the liberals, so spend away!
It doesn't matter what Obama is able to accomplish, we are all "redneck racists" and he's not "as bad as Bush" and that's all we need to remember! The illegal immigration problem need not get fixed, or education, or Social Security, or even health care for that matter, because Bush didn't fix those problems, so Obama not being able to do it, simply means he wasn't "as bad as Bush" at fixing things.
Something tells me it's going to be a rough 4 years, just putting up with liberals!
