This was all knowable back in 2008. You're not a follower of Saul Alinsky and chummie with folks like Bill Ayers (ghost writer of your memoir), Jeremiah Wright, Al Monsour, Odinga, and countless other demented left wing radicals AND also somehow at the same time an admirer of classical liberalism, a la John Locke and Adam Smith.
I want to take those influential conservatives who insisted in 2008 that OF COURSE Obama's not a socialist and whack them upside their pointy heads. But that won't undo what has been done. It was a nice Republic, while it lasted. We have lost it for lack of discernment on a point that should be obvious to anyone with a functioning medulla oblongata. But the country was worked up through relentless propaganda to desire 'anyone but Bush' so that even a crackpot socialist tyrant-in-training with qualifications -- and credentials -- as dubious as Obama's could squirm through to the White House, and stick the knife right into the heart of our Founding principles.
