At first it just didnt' make sense. Disappointment ok. Anger or recriminations, all right.

But cons every where have been downright paranoid and even dumb in their conspiracy theories over what they think Obama will do

Obama's using executive orders to undo Bush's executive orders that he used to grab power is somehow Obama grabbing power?

Support for the progressive tax system we have had for almost a century is a call to seize the means of production fora communist revolution?

Thinking we need to repair our infrastructure makes Obama the same as Hitler?

Even claiming Obama is poised to cause a Caucasion Holocaust?

Not every thing Shrub was accused of had merit but even the worst of it had a limit , at least some kind of internal logic or corroboration. At least Shrub had a chance to effect public policy for a while. But cons don't seem to even care if what they say makes any sense or that Obama hasnt' even started the job.

Then i remembered during Clinton there were all those survivalist groups and right wing whackos saying Clinton was going to create a police state.
Yet Shrub got into power with a rubber stamp Congress, started side stepping laws he didn't like to have torture and spying on Americans and chipping away of one right after another (which is what a police state does).. And not one peep from those same people on the right.

And it occurred to me, it's not a totalitarian police state that bothers them. It's who they think will be in control of it. The right spent 8 fucking years ignoring or downplaying or even cheer leading whenever Shrub grabbed more power and now it's probably occurred to them all that now that power Shrub grabbed is going to belong to Obama.

Maybe you thought they would win this election. Maybe they were so busy "dissing the liberals" that they really didn't know what was going on. Maybe the right really thought being able to hold people without charge, torture them, spy on them, lock them up without trial was a good idea at the time.

Oops.

And after years of demonizing anyone that doesn't agree with them as Un American, Anti-American, Terrorists supporting Liberals ect ect, I think they began to believe thier own rhetoric. Sure the right were the good guys so they would only use to take away people's rights for good. But Liberals hate America and despite what Shrub claimed, his power grab did let him do to Americans what he did to "furners' (Just ask Padilla)

And now a "Black Marxist Liberal ect ect " has that power Shrub spent 8 long years grabbing with the right's tacit approval.

Not that we didn't warn them this could happen. we did keep asking them what if the next President wa s a Democrat. I Bet they feel pretty dumb right now.

So let me give this message to any conservative who may be reading this...

Relax.

We aren't going to form a police state. We want to get rid of it. Regulating guns does not mean taking away all guns. Using a legal power of the Presidency is not a power grab. No one outside the right ever claimed Obama was the second coming. Just because you guys were happy to sell off your rights for a colorful warning system doesn't' mean everybody is.

Not to say everyone on the right is gripped with this kind of paranoia. A few o f you aren't. (too few) Why not ask them to talk you down. (since a Liberal like me telling you there will be no Obama police state probably only reinforces in your mind that there will be an Obama police state.)

Not that this will sort all of your problems. You seem to be in deep denial over why you lost. But hopefully you will be a little less obnoxious.
