    Whaddaya expect from idiots?

    The truth about Obama is that he's generally to the right of Hillary in all his proposals: health care, global warming, the bailout of the subprime mortgages. I know it's fashionable in Obama circles to bash Clinton and thus find Obama the true progressive, but in one area after another, he's on the right

    These are the same people who think the only thing "progressives" do is throw anti-war demonstrations.
