One half of the Democratic Party has become what they hate
So typical of children raised in abusive families... I guess we are all a family that has been abused beyond belief in the last 8 years.

The sad thing is that roughly one half of us has become what we hate. One half of us approves of a candidate who is a warmonger, who wouldn't vote against torture, who pulls pure Rovian tactics,driving the campaign into the gutter, who now identifies with and befriends the very people who have abused us the most over the last 8 years.

So sad. But predictable, I guess, according to the psychologists.

3. I was a Democrat to begin with. Lots of us were and still are. But Obama is not someone
who should be president. He isn't experienced enough and yet he thinks he knows everything. And quite frankly, I just don't think he is a very nice person.

5. Just like those children of abusive parents
who go out and try to prevent abuse, rather than furthering it.
