where's FrenchieCat?

116. I must have had more run-ins with Nance

I thought FrenchieCat was great, and even told her so.

Maybe it helps if you are on the same side, because I was always a Hillary-hater.

And then for two years - from 2008 to 2010, I was an Obama defender (or tried to be). Then Obama crossed my Rubicon - he extended the Bush tax cuts, and instituted an accursed payroll tax cut, and started (actually continued) to preach Reaganomics (tax cuts (for the rich, which the politician calls middle class tax cuts or small business tax cuts) will create jobs!!!).

Doubtless there were many posts that I never saw, many flame wars I never got singed by.

It was funny how perceptions changed though.

When I was an Obama defender, it seemed like the Obama attackers were rude as hell, calling us Obamabots, DINOs, lovers of Bush, sensible woodchucks, etc., etc., etc. even using that as an icon.

Then when I switched though, it seemed like the Obama defenders were the obnoxious ones. Calling us firebaggers, closet racists (as if the same people didn't also hate the white Bill Clinton), etc.

It's always more serious when your own eye is the one getting poked.
