I am tired of being called an authoritarian swooner, fascist enabler, etc. just because I like that Obama is for women, gays, minorities and the poor. And that I see those as more important, because that is hands on oppression there.
The fact that I enjoy having finally having a first family setting a positive example for youth that will benefit our future, gets me called an Obama asskisser, worshipper and all the other names I endured on mixed boards with conservatives save the one, the N-lover.
I'm supposed to 'curb my enthusiasm' in the march to Ragnarok, or I'll be called names. Tired of it when ProSense or others post facts and are called apologists, or paid staff of the White House, or people who have no life and should fuck off.
Since when are facts anathema and those who present them to be cursed, told to fuck off, shut up, damned fools, etc., anywhere but the most conservative sites?
