(7,604 posts)I have read so much crap comparing My President, the guy I voted for to that awful POS Cheney.
This guy is reasonable , intelligent, more honest than most politicians and this older white guy continues to support him. I have been mystified about why a supposed Democratic website would have so many prolific posters who appear to hate a Democratic President.
The deliberate ignorance of the President's powers when the issue is the closure of Guantanamo, the deliberate ignorance of the President's constitutional responsibilities to the people of the United States when the issue is NSA spying on the other 95% of the world, is incredible to see from a Democratic website.
"And boy, are the people sure eating it up. I expect it from the Republicans, but how to explain all the Democrats falling for it? How do we explain the dozens of Democrats even repeating this nonsense on DU day in and day out? I have my hypothesis. You come up with yours."
I think you are right.
