The Democrats are in full push back against conservatives who cheered Barack Obamas defeat at the hands of the International Olympic Committee.
During the Bush era Republicans from Karl Rove to Joe Wilson questioned in ways both veiled and overt the patriotism of Democrats who challenged the administrations Iraq policy pre-war intelligence and surveillance programs.
But the joyous reaction in some GOP quarters to the International Olympics Committees snub of Chicago coupled with the partys rapid-fire reaction to bad economic data has some Democrats turning the tables and asking if Republicans are the ones cheering against America now.
At the 4:30 mark in
this video you can hear Texas Democrat candidate John Sharp running for the Senate attack RedState for cheering Obamas defeat.
This is the most bogus crap Ive ever witnessed. Leave it to a sympathetic media to egg it on.
For eight years we have witnessed the left cheer every defeat in war say screw them" about America deaths in Iraq have elected Congressmen declare our soldiers war criminals have an elected United States Senator compare our soldiers to Nazis and now have
the Chairman of the Democratic Party encouraging Virginia to deny our soldiers the right to vote and
the President of the United States begin a systematic effort to undermine our successes in Afghanistan after embarking on a seven month long world tour to apologize for America.That the left would call conservatives unpatriotic and un-American for cheering Obamas defeat at the IOC means they have a bastardized idea of what patriotism means and does nothing to wash the blood of our nations freedoms and soldiers off their hands.
I love America therefore I must cheer this Obama defeat and it was an Obama defeat.
