The ‘Wait, What?!’ of the Week, October 16, 2015

Last week President Obama was in Seattle, and he said, “Why are all these Republicans so down on America? Listening to them is really depressing.”


Wait. What?! Why are Republicans “down on America”? Um, this is the man who came into office and said he planned to “fundamentally transform” the nation. Would you want to fundamentally transform something you considered to be good? This is the man who sat in a church for 20 years and listened to Rev. Jeremiah Wright condemn America in the most vile and racist terms, including shouting during a sermon, “God damn America!!” This is the man whose wife (our First Lady) declared in 2008: “For the first time in my life, I'm proud of America.”

I’m pretty sure Republicans are not “down on America.” But they might be plenty concerned about what’s happened to this country during the last 6-1/2 years.
