The election of the Carebear seems to have really unhinged a portion of the country in a way we haven't seen since President Johnson pushed through the civil rights legislation in the 1960's.
Even if everything they feared about Obama being a socialist were true, there is very little change that can be brought about in a single term. Certainly we could never enact the kind of society enjoyed by Canada and Europe, yet these folks are convinced that its the end of the country as they know it, and grandma will be turned into Soilent Green.

Of course the same sort of end of times hysteria was all the rage about thirty years ago in the land of cotton. Seems like some things just haven't changed.
These folks need to grow up and quit their whining. The rest of us suffered through eights years to disastrous right wind politics. Now its their turn.
