The party of perpetual outrage
You’d think that American liberals might actually be happy for at least a short period of time since Democrats swept the national elections just nine days ago, but the rage goes on over the passage of Proposition 8 in California. Of course, you don’t see conservatives enraged over the fact that a socialist with terrorist friends just got elected president, or that the Democrats increased their majorities in both the House and Senate. But something doesn’t go the left’s way at the ballot box, and their short-fuses get lit. What’s ironic is that Proposition 8, which passed 52-48%, was apparently pushed over the top by the state’s black voters, and liberals, who consistently accuse the right of racism, are attacking black voters — the same black voters who voted 95% for Obama — for providing the margin of victory for Proposition 8.
Yeah, this is kinda funny, kinda sad, kinda sobering. Our beliefs might cost us something this time around; this is something we Americans aren’t use do. I mean, ya, we’ve faced differing amounts of ridicule and such, but the opposition hasn’t been to this outrageous level. Conservatives might actually have to show some backbone.
