False Equivalency

I'm getting really goddamn tired of people equating liberal loathing of George W. Bush with the Republican/teabagger contempt for President Obama. Look, George Bush lied us into a war of choice and screwed up just about everything he ever touched as president. The justifications for protests against the march to war are not the same as for the teabaggers' outrageous antics, at town hall meetings or during a presidential address.

Barack Obama is seeking to untie a Gordian knot and extend health care coverage to even the neediest of Americans. George Bush couldn't have given a rat's ass about any of that.

Just ask these guys.
