Have a look at some of the nasty exchanges in this thread to see where I'm coming from:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10026452384 Some posters have never had one good thing to say about Obama, his administration or their accomplishments. One long litany of bashing and snarking...and this on DEMOCRATIC Underground. And, it's always the same offenders.

7. Iranian Nuclear Deal Cements President Obama’s Legacy; Validates Nobel Peace Prize
In a landmark victory for peace and cooperation, President Obama and a coalition of world powers have agreed to a lasting accord with the Islamic Republic of Iran, halting their nuclear program in exchange for the lifting of the economic sanctions that have been crippling the Iranian economy. “We have stopped a cycle that is not in the interest of anybody!” proclaimed Iranian foreign minister Mohammed Javad Zarif MOre.. http://www.occupydemocrats.com/peace-triumphs-pres-obama-reaches-historic-nuclear-deal-with-iran/

I'm not sure anyone does. Did Kissinger? Singling one person (particularly in instances where it's before they've even done anything to indicate why they're should) out like this always seems to end up DIVIDING people -- instead of bringing them together. Like now.
I mean, am I supposed to forget everything? That would require amnesia..... 
"Stand firm for what you believe in. Until and unless logic and experience prove you wrong. Remember, when the emperor looks naked, the emperor is naked. The truth and a lie are not "sort of" the same thing. And there is no aspect, no facet, no moment of life that can't be improved with pizza. Thank you." --Daria Morgendorffer (''fauxgressives'' - Good one. I'll add to my growing list of liberal pejoratives for all those people who don't agree with them..... :|) |
