and I guess that Romney and the GOP will have us all singing "Kum-by-ah" by the time the election is over?

unchecked.

This was one of the main hammers they used to smash over Hillary Clinton's head until ...

Right about March of 2008 when it was pretty clear that Barrack Obama was going to beat her in the primary, then all of sudden she was not all bad and he had to explain to people why he hated america so much because he did not wear a flag lapel pin.

The RIGHT WING screams bloody murder over EVERYTHING and ANYTHING about a D, and in their deluded little world it is the Ds fault because they are DIVISIVE!

And, the MSM drones just drool and nod when they spew this nonsense.

This line was also used by those "Fox News Democratic Pollsters" Caddell and Schoen after the 2010 midterms to argue that President Obama should refuse to run again.

I just.don't.get.it. Only in their tea-addled minds could President Obama be the most divisive POTUS ever but OTOH they, of course, seem to conveniently forget about how Bush and the Republicans governed from 2001-2008.

there might not be a cooler and more even tempered politician we have seen in our lives.

He is 1,000,000 more the man than I am, cause I would have lost it on these morons a hundred times over by now.

But, it is one of their little talking points and they just parrot them without the first thought, and for good measure this one helps to justify all of their banal partisan rage at him.

I know you can't expect anything better from them.

But given President Obama's incredible demeanor, you would think that the so called "liberal media" would do more than just nod when they spew this kind of shiite.

Rubio, "HE IS THE MOST DIVISIVE PRESIDENT EVER!"

Anyone with a brain, "uh, Barrack Obama? How is this so ..."
