Rightwing Attacks On Obama A Continuation Of Their Style

I heard there was some kind of crazy wingnut gathering in Washington yesterday. Anyone else hear anything about that? Hmmmm? Something about they lost the last few election cycles and it's driving them nuts? Someone needs to check out their cable Networks FAUX and CNN and see what's up with that.
Glenn Greenwald takes on the corporate media's latest fascination(other than teabaggers) with that new-fangled Republican trend of; making up sh*t, ignoring their own hypocracy, and treating Democratic ideals with sneering contempt.

Is the Right's attack on Obama's legitimacy new or unprecedented?

"..Nothing that the GOP is doing to Obama should be the slightest bit surprising because this is the true face of the American Right -- and that's been true for a very long time now. It didn't just become true in the last few months or in the last two years. Recent months is just the time period when the media began noticing and acknowledging what they are: a pack of crazed, primitive radicals who don't really believe in the country's core founding values and don't merely disagree with, but contest the legitimacy of, any elected political officials who aren't part of their movement. Before the last year or so, the media pretended that this was a serious, adult, substantive political movement, but it wasn't any truer then than it is now. All one has to do is review their behavior during the Clinton presidency -- to say nothing of the Bush years -- to see that none of this is remotely new. Nothing they're doing to Obama is a break from their past behavior; it's just a natural and totally predictable continuation of it..."

When they're not in power it's what they do.
When they're in power they loot the treasury, turn the government over to corporations(I know Dems do to, but not to GOP level) and the churches, rape the environment(more than usual), coddle the rich and the corrupt, etc.
