18. Funny. Another case where we are tricked into applauding

May 2012

when we are shown that Obama is not (shock, gasp) as liberal as some say he is!

"No, he did not increase the government. He is actually for smaller government!"

"No, he did not spend during a financial recession (except of Defense)!"

"No,he did not demand a public option!"

"No, he is not soft on bombing the shit out of terrorists!"

"No, he isn't against the idea of torture, indefinite detention or illegal wiretapping if it is for national security!"

Has someone (us) been played?
