In early spring of 2013, the new U.S. president, Seumas McDoherty-O’Rahilly, was invited to give the commencement address at the University of Notre Dame. He had run on an anti-hope-and-change platform, as had all other candidates, so toxic had these words become in the climate of cynicism that had developed when runaway governmental borrowing and spending plunged the nation into Jimmy Carter-style stagflation.
Etc.

From Reader D:
I believe I heard Rush say recently: Obama’s the only American president who “hates our country.”
That’s why he doesn’t flinch when a 2-bit dictator denounces us and insults us in his presence. In my opinion Obama buys the rhetoric, the same way he bought Jeremiah Wright’s venom against Amerika for 20 years. We’re in serious doo-doo.
Right. He’s not shocked, having heard it all before.
