I am seeing an alarming amount of hatred against Obama and the Democratic party in general on fb. These "liberty" people, mainly Ron Paul supporters, are spreading all sorts of lies about his health plan, the "birthers" are growing in enormous numbers, it's all over MSM- but we here know that is an age old psy op, to make conspiracy truthers look foolish...
I am finding this akin to when we had the Klan to worry about, in other words a huge step backwards. It scares me frankly. My congressman, a good man, Lloyd Doggett, spoke at our local Randalls on Sat and the right wing anti health care reform waccos were there in huge numbers just screaming at him, it made the press every where. These same goons were around to bash Clinton every time he even attempted any type of reform -admittedly not often- but now it's far bigger, there are way more Rush types on the radio and tv giving these people fake bs to rally round.
Strange days indeed.
