Quote from Ricter:
Anyone and everyone could be on that list because the writing is cariacature. Had the writer chosen, for tone, to accentuate the subjects' strengths, instead of failings, I have little doubt readers here would be saying, "bullshit, Obama/Reid/Pelosi are not good in any way", etc.
The word caricature is accurate. Just like the right fights the caricature of Obama, not the actual President. They fight over what they want others to think Obama has done, or said, whether it's true or not.
And, to be fair, the left probably went too far against Bush II. Sometimes even losing respect for the office.
