Delusions of the liberal mind

Here's a recap of an actual conversation I had last night with two friends, through-and-through Obamabots both. The TV news was on in the background and it precipated a short but telling discussion of the 2012 presidential race.

Right off the assertion is made, "Of course Obama will be re-elected in 2012."

Why?

"Because the Republicans have nobody who can beat him."

"Really," I said. "I think we have quite a few qualified candidates."

Which drew the sharp retort, "Oh yeah, name one! And it had better not be that skirt."

He was referring of course to Sarah Palin. Real classy, right? "That skirt." I guess I should be grateful he wasn't a stringer for the Washington Post.

What makes the irony doubly delicious is the tantrum these folks threw when I dared to refer to FLOTUS The 44^th as "Moochelle" in a recent blog post. Because as everyone knows it's raaaaacist to makes jokes about the size of a Black woman's butt, even when she's calling our kids a bunch of lard-asses.

But then, before I could even formulate a response, out came this whopper: "Obama deserves a second term."

"Excuse me?"

"You can't expect him to undo 8 years of Bush in one term. He's just getting started and you want to kick him out? Give the guy a chance to get the country back on track."

BDS, it's alive and well!

But wait, it gets better.

"No Republican is qualified to run against him because only Obama has the actual experience of being president."

Really, this is what passes for logic among the liberals. These are card-carrying progressives who worked tirelessly to evict George W. Bush after one term hoping to put John "War Hero" Kerry and John "Serial Adulterer" Edwards in the White House. I don't recall any "he deserves a second term" admonitions passing their lips in 2004!

My how times have changed.
