THE LEFT'S UNHAPPINESS IS MISPLACED.
THE PROBLEM ISN'T - AS THEY FEEL - THAT OBAMA HAS BEEN TOO CENTRIST.
THE REAL PROBLEM IS TWO-FOLD:
HAD OBAMA BEEN EVEN MORE LEFTIST - HAD HE BEEN AS LEFTIST AS HIS CRITICS ON THE LEFT DESIRE - THEN THE RESULTS WOULD HAVE BEEN EVEN WORSE ON BOTH COUNTS:
THE PROBLEM ISN'T - AS THEY FEEL - THAT OBAMA HAS BEEN TOO CENTRIST.
THE REAL PROBLEM IS TWO-FOLD:
- FIRST, OBAMA'S LEFTIST POLICIES HAVE MADE THINGS WORSE.
- SECOND, OBAMA'S LEFTIST POLICIES HAVE PROVEN THAT OBAMA HAS BEEN MORE LEFTIST AS PRESIDENT THAN OBAMA THE CANDIDATE WAS - AND THIS HAS ALSO UPSET THE INDEPENDENTS WHO WERE DUPED INTO THINKING THAT OBAMA WAS A MODERATE.
HAD OBAMA BEEN EVEN MORE LEFTIST - HAD HE BEEN AS LEFTIST AS HIS CRITICS ON THE LEFT DESIRE - THEN THE RESULTS WOULD HAVE BEEN EVEN WORSE ON BOTH COUNTS:
- THE COUNTRY WOULD BE DOING EVEN WORSE
- AND THE INDEPENDENTS WOULD BE EVEN MORE PISSED OFF!
- INSTEAD OF LOOKING IN THE MIRROR AND ADMITTING THAT THEIR LEFTIST POLICIES SUCK, LEFTISTS ARE BLAMING OBAMA.
- THIS IS LIKE HOW LEFTISTS USED TO EXCUSE THE USSR'S HORRORS ... BY SAYING THAT THE USSR WASN'T REAL COMMUNISM.
