Why do Republicans have socialist fantasies about Obama?

Because it suppresses their sexual fantasies about other men.

Che Guevera couldn't have run a bake sale.

And as for "Please register to read the rest of this article," suck it, shamelessshillmitter.

No, subby. We need vast liberal reforms.

Does this mean you're just now realizing he's not the most liberal liberal to ever liberal?

We all know that was John Kerry.

Hm. A 65% approval rating means the honeymoon is over?

We need a "moderates feel betrayed by ultra-liberal Obama" article to balance this out.

Obama is a Communist! vs. Whiney libs complain Obama's not left wing enough!

 
Jim_Callahan 2009-03-28 12:39:30 AM  
Yeah, headline is nonsensical, Che never ran shiat, his few attempts at being something other than the mean-ass second-in-command failed pretty miserably fast enough that they can't even really be called 'attempts'.

 
EL_FABREZ 2009-03-28 12:41:46 AM  
There is nothing Obama could do in the first 100 days to do shiat to the economy.

A trolleriffic headline but anyways, FTA:


The liberal backlash against President Barack Obama has begun with many prominent left-leaning economists in the US attacking the administration's plans to bail out the banks.


Apparently its whining because liberals are saying the things that pro-capitalist republicans should have been saying about it.

 
Gyrfalcon [TotalFark] 2009-03-28 12:45:06 AM  
Hate to tell ya, but those whiny libs would have been right up against the wall with the conservitards if Guevara was in charge. He was just Castro's hatchetman, and the Maximum Leader didn't like rich kulaks any more than he liked rich bourgeoisie.

 
Prospero424 [TotalFark] 2009-03-28 12:46:41 AM  
Yeah, it'd be SO much better if liberals just lined up behind Obama and his anointed propagandists like conservatives lined up behind Bush and Rove (except when they tried to let in more Mexicans).


That worked out great...

How is that not a possibility? He could be a commie and some libs would complain that Obama is not left wing enough. Some people are not happy unless you meet their pure ideas.

BTW Obama is a commie.

Obama, like Clinton, is a centrist. we have centrist and far right presidents in this country. Nixon was a centrist, but you would call him a librul today.

The right is so far right, it has to imagine everything to the left of it as "leftist" but it isn't.

That is why the right has no power in this country anymore.

Um, Pelosi certainly has. Reid has never had an original opinion, so I'm not sure how he feels.

That said, the idea that "Haha america, the liberals don't like Obama" seems a little silly, when the liberals do actually like Obama. Ideally the liberals would rather have him wave a wand and make everything happen immediately, but for the rational amongst us we are pretty pleased with the progress. No one with a brain thought it would be unicorns in the first 60 days... that's just what the trolls pretended we believed.

You see, the Democratic base also questions his decisions and gets pissed when he does the wrong thing. In black and white Republican land, this is impossible unless they oppose him. You either support fearless leader to the death, or you are against him. Reagan started that shiat, adn ironically its kinda help lead to the death of the right in America.

Knowing the republican party that wouldn't surprise me in the least. But it could also be to do with the fact that all of Obama's mentors including the biological father he so obviously yearns/ed for the approval of, were either socialist or communist.

How about everyone makes a deal...no more presidents with daddy issues. At least Clinton's mommy issues only resulted in a stained dress and a soggy cigar.

Does this even make sense?

Goalposts? Fooling anyone? Who am I trying to fool? What are you talking about?

Are you even capable of rational thought anymore? Since the Obama election you are about as goddamned stupid as that idiot who used to come and post Cox and Forkum cartoons all day. Christ.

They both make me want to vomit. Seriously, the Democratic Leadership in Congress is a farking joke. Steny Hoyer should rise up and grab the reigns in the House, and Jack Reed should do the same in the Senate.

Pelosi and Reid are not fit for their jobs. Far better than McConnell and Boner, but come on... This is ridiculous.

The problem with American liberals is that they are too nieve to recognize the nightmarish hellscape that their bullshiat ideologies will result into.

One needs only to look to Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional of Mexico to see Obamanism in practice. Except where Las Zapatias care very much for the citizens of their nation, liberals will shun protectionalism for a sick and twisted form of neo-liberal globalization.

It's like in "The Best of Both Worlds", the third-season finale of Star Trek: TNG, when Picard is transformed into Locutus. Sure, American liberalism appeals to those who favor collectivist tendencies, and sure it feels good to be part of the "team". But if serving Obama means that you have to abandon a large swath of your own humantiy, to assimilate in some form of watered-down communist system...no thanks, I will choose free will.

 
Antidamascus 2009-03-28 01:12:48 AM  
Personally, and I'm making this up, it seems to me that the MOST liberal are mad he didn't turn the country into a crazy utopia of solar power and bunnies yet and the MOST conservative are mad he hasn't dismantled the government.

Seems to me the people in the middle are all "Weeeeell, let's see"

Because of that, I should be happy.

Nope.

I see that. The words must confuse you.


I told you. You can read. Seirously, I think posting right wing comics would be great for you. Why not try it? What was that dude name again anyway?


I can't believe people are so pathetic that Obama getting elected honestly change their personality it frkked with them so bad. Get a life. Classic.
