More Republican Lies About Obama

I want to quote a remark from Crooks and Liars about Sean Hannity:

"Last night Sean Hannity went on and on with a litany of lies intended to prove we have an irresponsible President. In the ultimate irony, Hannity claims Obama is not "interested in the facts or the truth." Oh, there's a hoot. He goes on to claim the White House was slow to react to the Nashville floods despite Nashville's mayor saying the opposite, Obama hasn't read Arizona's immigration law, the oil spill is Obama's Katrina (long debunked here, here, and here), and makes the scurrilous, unfounded, ignorant claim that this Administration is incompetent.

At the end he asks, "President Obama, is it time to step up? or maybe step aside?"

Gosh, Hannity. Where was that question when you were so bent in 2007 you felt the need to rant about "Democrats emboldening our enemies" by criticizing President Bush?"

Hannity's behavior, which is attributed to mere hypocrisy is, as I have been pointing out for a year now, more than that.

This kind of attack actually has almost nothing to do with Obama at all, and is actually about Bush. These people are desperately trying to erase the disgrace they earned by their unwavering support of the worst president in American history, and the only way they have found to do this is by launching preosterous accusations toward Obama claiming that he is just as bad as Bush.

They can't wipe away the stain of one of the greatest military blunders in history, the looting and devastation of our economy, the turning of FEMA into a hollow shell, while preaching endlessly about how they had made us secure, the torture, the devastation of the constitution, the open corruption. So the only choice left to them is to hallucinate Obama into a clone of Bush.

Their only choice, that is, except to admit the truth, learn from it and move on. But then you come to one of Green Eagle's other fundamental rules of existence: the most universal characteristic of conservatives is an absolute inability to take responsibility for anything they have ever done.
