It's important to remember that Bush Derangement Syndrome on the left - comparing him to Hitler, calling him a terrorist and a tyrant - preceded Obama Derangement Syndrome on the right.

In order to have the stuff of a tyrant, a certain mental derangement is necessary.
There's something about Barack Obama that induces Americans to imagine what they cannot see. The Right envisions a vile socialist, while many on the Left picture an inspired liberal, politically restrained in his first term but now free to pursue his true beliefs.
There is no doubt that the second President Bush inherited a very serious terrorist threat, though not such a threat as had been represented by the totalitarian Great Powers, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union.

It's not about Obama, it's about the Democrats and their policies that cause consternation on the right.
Barack Obama is more irritating than the other nuisances on the Left.
Barack Obama is a radical, and we should not be afraid to say that.
Oh, you know what, it's an honor to be mentioned in the company of those that might lead our country forward after President Obama.
