If Barack Obama were to cure cancer and bring world peace tomorrow before noon...
Rush Limbaugh, Fox Noise and National Hate Radio would be on the air by evening, ranting about
Obama's evil moves to put Americans who do medical research and work in the arms industry out of a job.

2. Barack Obama could save a child's life by pulling him from a flooded river ...
..... and Fox would say that Obama does not like fireman and rescue e.m.t.s.

30. Yeah, it's not the driveby trolls killing this place, it's the
wolves in sheep's clothing who are so uncool.

7. Someone on TV said if he ended world hunger, he'd be blamed for overpopulation!
They also made your point about the arms industry. It was pretty funny.

I can see a list in the making.

15. And Glenn Greenwald would profess that he always knew that Barack Obama
was a no-good jerk.

9. Even if the President burped in public...
Republicans would try to impeach him!

20. I think their reaction to that would be:
"How dare he bring that up?"

14. If Barack Obama professed a preference for breathing oxygen,
Limbaugh, Beck and the rest of the right-wing blowhards would be screaming themselves hoarse on the radio that all FREEDOM LOVING PATRIOTS SHOULD GIT TO BREATHIN' ONLY NITROGEN AND HELIUM. Then they'd be on the radio the next day blaming Obama for "allowing his constituents to die".

25. I don't think they're all right wingers.
Some days, this place could be called "GreenUnderground" instead. They care not for Obama's success because it violates their theory that a Democrat is exactly the same as a Republican.

19. One of the few times I've listened to Comedian Rush L
One of his callers was doing exactly that - complaining about cuts in military spending because it would close a base in her town and people would have to change jobs. This was during the Clinton years. yes, we must continue to kill people without need to, just so some people won't have to change jobs.

27. And SNL and cable news would say he hasn't done anything, and
progressives would still be whining because it took him too long.

28. People would bitch that he's doing too much - it he takes a few hours off,
he's not doing enough.

Who cares what these people supposedly "think".
