Is the sky really falling?

We're 120 days into Obama's first term, and the hysterics from the right continue.

By now, everyone is already aware of Obama's plan to ban all guns and ammo, first-person-shooters and Super-Soakers, and melt down any remaining stock to make 2012 commemorative plates.

And Obama's pro-baby-killer stance means America won't be spared Zombie Jesus's wrath during the End Of Days.

But have you heard the latest news? I hear Obama's going to increase mileage standards! Hes gonna ban r trucks an r gunz! All he has to do now is outlaw hound-dogs and the country music industry will be dead overnight.

I hear he's going after the credit card industry with reforms as well. Sonofabitch! Those credit card companies are a wholesome as they come, why are they being targeted? America isn't really America without universal default clauses and predatory lending practices. And besides, it's not like these credit card companies are building their asset portfolios on bad credit like the mortgage industry; let's trust them to do the right thing.

A similar topic is already in progress in regards to the performance of Obama thus far.

What Grade Do you Give Mr Obama for His First 100 Days?

Is thread actually supposed to be about something in particular?

Seems like a massive troll thread.

On economics: Sorry dude. But the right believes the government is not supposed to encroach on the market, even if its intentions are benign, and even if the results are benign.

Dictatorships can be benign too. That doesn't make it the best way to do it.

I'm not going to comment on social issues as it would ignite tempers.

Let's see, Obama's been in office about 120 days, with a Democratic Congress, and mental giants like the OP continue to dwell on how stupid they think the other side is...

As a troll thread this is weaksauce, as another insight into your disturbed obsession it's telling. A lot of people are more concerned with hating than actually building reasonable arguments to make things better. It's a lot easier to parrot insults than to create and defend a rational position.
