Really?  The wingers all seem to think he's pretty clearly the devil.  I'm not sure they feel like he's telling them what they want to hear.[/quote]

I know it's hard to remember and feels different because Obama is black, but the mouthbreathers behaved similarly when Bill Clinton was president. Hell, they *impeached* Bill Clinton. Over getting a BJ in the Oval. It was the same playbook: Vince Foster was the equivalent of the birth certificate. The attacks on Hillary parallel the disdain expressed about Michelle Obama (even though M.O. really behaves more like Nancy Reagan did with her policy initiative). The attacks on Obama feel more intense because the Internet echo chamber amplifies them more loudly, and they feel uglier because you can detect an undercurrent of racism. Netscape didn't debut until 1995, two years into Clinton's first term, and Fox News wasn't a factor. But even a couple of years later, Hillary Clinton was warning of the "vast right-wing conspiracy" that was enabled by the network of right-wing sights and their lockstep feeding frenzies that were just beginning.

Someone should create a flow chart of the right-wing media and how the bullshit filters through it.[/quote]
