26. It's getting worse....

Thu Feb 23, 2012, 09:42 PM

Feb 2012

I'm running into hysteria that is waaaayyy beyond the already-high level of the past three years. Facebook, viral emails, LTTE comments...

They are re-treading emails and lies from 2009...

The dumb bastards have been told.. in increasingly shrill tones... that if Obama is re-elected, that it's the end of this country.

The Godless Commies will take over.

The Constitution will be thrown out.

The next election will be cancelled.

I fear for Obama's safety.
