The anti-Obama crowd must be still smoking their cigarettes today, eh?
Interestingly, Fox News is riling up their viewers about the fascism permeating this country. I say it's interesting because Fox News was a perfect example of fascism for the past 8 years- big business and government interacting as one. You couldn't tell where Fox ended and Cheney started. When our country was truly threatened by real fascism (during the bush years) not a single news source even brought up the term. In fact, if you did say the f word, the right wing blew a fuse. Comparing Bush to Hitler was viewed as a mortal sin. Comparing Obama to Hitler is now viewed as patriotic. Another interesting thing is that the anti-Obama crowd also likes to say that our country is now socialist. How can you be a fascist and a socialist? When news reporters asked protesters what socialism is, they described communism! None could define fascism or what it was about Hitler that made him a fascist.
The teabaggers had to be some of the stupidest people ever to protest! Fox News ought to be sued to take the word 'news' out of their name because they are not giving anyone any actual news, but they are sure Foxy and great at propaganda.
Another thing that struck me is that all the protesters were white and I wonder how many of them are white supremacists. After all they are very stupid people and most of the protesters were very stupid and misinformed. If the current Democratic president was white, would people be so anti-president? I'm just thinking out loud here.
Americablog has a number of posts and news video from yesterday. Enough to keep you busy and shaking your head.
