This article encompasses a lot of my thoughts about the current state of the conservative movement and why I am a facts-based and values-oriented progressive.
It’s hard to comprehend the level of hatred that you conservatives have for Obama. Your intense hatred of him began long before he even took office and doesn’t seem to stem from anything he’s done as president.
From the day he was inaugurated, all over the country you began protesting Obama’s tax increases, even though he had only lowered your taxes.
Although he’s offered more proof of his origin of birth than any president in history, nearly half of you still say you believe Obama was not born in America, 57% believe he is Muslim, and 24% said he may be the Anti-Christ.
Before Obama took office, congressional Republicans decided that they would oppose every single bill that Obama supported. They used the filibuster to prevent any legislation from being voted on, including bills that Republicans previously supported and some that they even co-sponsored. When President Obama decided to embrace a lot of Republican ideas like Cap and Trade, the individual mandate for health insurance and the Dream Act, these Republican ideas suddenly were denounced by as Socialism and received zero Republican votes.
