Friends and I have noticed an interesting and nauseating parallel between the postures of our presidential electors:
I lived with a liberal during a portion of President George Bush’s recent term whose friends and associates frequently used absurd and caustic expressions portraying and demeaning his character and demeanor.
While their man was elected president this time, ironically I haven’t heard any of this banter degrading President Obama, merely referring to him in the mature dialog, “He’s my president to whom I wish the utmost of luck succeeding in his objectives.”
You draw the conclusion of what one and one equals about the wisdom of those who elected our current president and his cabinet.
