What's Exceedingly Obvious Over the Last Three days
The rank and file hardcore right wingers really didn't think Obama would ever assume the office. They are behaving as if they ACTUALLY, in fact, thought he would not be President. They are behaving as if they actually cannot process the idea that he will follow through on his policies. They are, in fact, shocked by it. I think many of them thought, as late as this week, that he really wouldn't ever be President. These people are in for a very long eight years.

1. Then I can empathetically say, "Welcome to my world view/sentiments during January of 2001."
Karma, it's a BITCH! :evilgrin:

2. You stated: These people are in for a very long eight years.
We can feel their pain, can't we? Only difference is that Obama will be doing good things, rather than destroying this country and the world and Bush's friends are ecstatic over the increase in their wealth.

3. And it will be hard for them to tune out his ability to articulate ideas
He expresses them with authority and simply enough.

We're loving that around this house. More than once my husband has walked through my office commenting on how great it is to listen to our president.

5. Thank goodness we overcame their time warp
their minds will forever be in the 50s.

6. I was in the same state of disbelief
Edited on Fri Jan-23-09 02:11 PM by chill_wind
in 2000 and again in 04 that the country I live in could allow the
reselection of a George Bush.

These last have been the looooongest eight years of MY life, I know that!

Find a way to deal with it Wingers. You blew it and you know it.

7. They think that Saint Ronnie gave them perpetual right to own the White House.
They have lots of problems in processing reality. They mistake their imaginations for the real world.
