It's because everything that Obama is for, you are against. If tomorrow, Obama adopted all of the TEA Party platform without telling anyone, you all
would be just as aghast, foaming at the mouth angry and against it.
You hate this president, fine, good. It's your opinion and you are completely entitled to it. But this idea, does have merit and believe it or not,
deepening our ports so that they can accommodate larger ships is a good idea that has benefits for the majority of Americans, despite the fact that
Obama said it.
Here's the formula Obama does X, times the number of pundits on Hannity against it Y plus token idiot liberal for it, shown on Hannity for
"balance" (Y*.005) Equals the level of rage the Hannity mocking birds have to be with anything that Obama does.
Let's give an example
Fake FOX News Headline: Obama goes to the bathroom.
Hannity: Clearly the "Messiah" is a socialist, cause only SOCIALIST COMMIES use toilets instead of outhouses like REAL Americans!
Guest 1: The Bible says that the toilet is an abomination of GOD and sinners like Obama using one is the reason there is gay marriage in this country,
look it up Hannity, it's Deu 23:12-14 KJV!
Guest 2: Clearly this is a allegory for what Obama is doing to America on a daily basis with his evil commie plot to destroy us from within, which is
his father's wish as he saw him born at that satanic altar in Kenya!
Guest 3: What kind of environmentalist does Obama look like when he wastes that much water and flushes SEWAGE into the DC System? And he expects US to
believe that he's concerned with Climate Change? Which is fake by the way!
Lib Guest: Uh most Americans have toilets in their homes.
Hannity: See! More socialism! Forcing god fearing righteous AMERICANS to have a toilet in their homes! Where's our FREEDOM?!
And then the next day it's a thread on ATS, with the same talking points spewed out over and over again.
Now we have an idea to do something for the economy, but automatically must be against it because Obama said something for it. Gotta make sure to take
that opposing view right? Can't sit there and think, "Well, most of his policies and actions are abhorrent and I really can't stand the guy as a
President, but this one time, this one idea does have merit, I'll give him that one."
Nope it' Obama Fundamentally Transforms America! (Geographically) And we have to throw the whole idea away based solely on a slight slip of the
tongue.
"OH MY GOD! Obama made a gaff! HIS WHOLE IDEA MUST BE DESTROYED BASED ONLY ON THAT GAFF AND NOT ON ANYTHING RELEVANT TO THE IDEA ITSELF!"
