Perspective Inversion in Obama-Rama

Senator Barack H. Obama spoke about how small-town folk cling to certain attitudes out of bitterness. Switching on the old tu quoque machine, let's see if we can come up with a parallel observation...

“You go into these big cities in California and, like a lot of big cities in Europe, Communism has been gone now for 16 years. And it’s not surprising, then, that they get bitter, they cling to victim disarmament or Big Government or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-citizen sentiment or anti-business sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”

How many liberals do you know that fit this description?

Air America was a good example. Not just bitter, but repulsively crude and not funny. I'm glad they didn't succeed.

Hooray for John Stewart, Stephen Colbert, and Bill Maher any day for brilliantly funny observations on the propaganda that creates Stepford taxpayers. "More war, please!"
