The GOP the "Party of Cranks?" That's a laugh!

Has the author forgotten the even greater personal hatred and vitriol the Democrats showered on Mr. Obama's predecessor for eight years? A general with Alzheimer's mentions that he didn't remember George W. Bush serving under his command in the National Guard during a specific period in which Bush wasn't even required to be on base. Within months, witnesses come forward to share their memories of his serving with them at that base anyway at the time in question, and the general- citing his illness-withdraws his comment and apologizes. All of this before Bush is even elected. Yet the "Bush was AWOL" lie continues to spread for the next eight years, even repeated by the 2004 Democrat candidate for president, John Kerry!

Despite the fact that the election officials in precincts in question were Democrats and that every recount or investigation done by independent parties concluded that George W. Bush won Florida and the presidency fair and square in 2000, the lie that the election was stolen is cherished by left wing zanies as an article of faith. As if the damage to the country were not enough, when Bush is re-elected, sore losers in the Democratic party claim that that election was also stolen, on the basis of even flimsier evidence.

Bush is compared to Hitler and members of his administration to Nazis for eight years. The over-the-top rhetoric continues to this day- as do the loony charges that he personally plotted the 9/11 attacks! Coller rightly decries the "birther" nutjobs, but seems to have forgotten the "truthers" who continue to maintain even now that Bush, and not Osama bin Laden, was responsible for the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentegon eight years ago today!

An admittedly narticulate and dyslexic graduate of Yale with a Harvard MBA is attacked as somehow lacking in mental acuity for eight years, and the media not only doesn't say a word, but snickers sympathetically whenever possible But let one of its congressmen challenge Barack Obama- however inappropriately- for a deceptive claim made in his health care speech, and suddenly the GOP as a whole is not only in danger of being seen as the party of vitriol, but presumed guilty of racism for the simply opposing a president of the opposite party who happens to be an African-American! Incredibly, the media as a whole seem to have forgotten that Bush was heckled and booed by virtually the entire Democratic membership in Congress during his 2005 State of the Union address. Where was the outrage then?

The lies and personal attacks from the Democrats continue. And the Republicans are in danger of being dismissed as the party of hate? The Democrats richly earned that title over the past nine years, and the GOP has a long, long way to go before it's in any positon to challenge their monopoly on it.
