While Dick Cheney was recovering from his heart transplant in the intensive care unit of Inova Fairfax Hospital in Falls Church, Va. Saturday, Twitter exploded with hate and ill wishes for the former vice president.
“Whoever donated their heart to dick cheney: f*ck you,” tweeted @yokelesy.
“Cheney’s black soul keeps rotting out his heart. F*ck that bitch,” @SolidGlo waxed poetic.
“Why in the contumacious f*ck are we wasting a perfectly good heart on dick cheney?” tweeted @mr_senor_pete
Another offered a different if similar perspective, expressing happiness for Cheney’s transplant — so that Cheney could one day meet his demise in a fire.
“I’m glad Cheney survived his heart transplant because I’ve always wanted him to die in a horrible fire,” @Jedimasterbator tweeted.
Sarah Palin has company. Leftists are infected with Bush Derangement Syndrome too.
(The Guardian) — Human rights groups have vowed to track George W. Bush round the world after their success in forcing him to cancel a trip to Switzerland amid concerns over protests and a threatened arrest warrant.
Katherine Gallagher, a lawyer with the New York-based Centre for Constitutional Rights, said: “The reach of the convention against torture is wide. This case is prepared and will be waiting for him wherever he travels next.
“Torturers, even if they are former presidents of the United States, must be held to account and prosecuted.”
The Progressive Change Campaign Committee released an ad, "Obama's Conscience", accusing President Obama of breaking campaign promises regarding tax rates.
A liberal protester at the “One Nation Working Together” march physically assaulted a HUMAN EVENTS reporter who was videotaping Rep. Charlie Rangel (D.-N.Y) at the event at the National Mall in Washington, D.C.

The radical left turns on President Obama. Arianna Huffington has some strong words of criticism of President Obama on the Rachael Maddow Show.
Arianna Huffington from the video:
Maybe progressives and the middle class need to sort of face up to the fact that the president is not that much into them, that he would rather hang out with Larry Summers, or flirt with Olympia Snowe, or play wargames late into the night with General Petraeus.
This video contains a collection of vile tweets in response to the Glenn Beck's Restoring Honor Rally on 8.28.2010. The hatred of the left knows no bounds. (strong language warning)
The leaders of Emily’s List unveiled a new resource center Tuesday to promote their new campaign targeting former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R).
Emily’s List President Stephanie Schriock will detail the group’s new “Sarah Doesn’t Speak for Me” campaign during an availability Tuesday morning at the National Press Club. The campaign is part of an effort to combat Palin’s effect in this fall’s elections and push back against her slate of candidates.
Washington Post columnist Ruth Marcus thinks the left and lefty bloggers are "Deranged" because they have unreasonable expectations about what Obama can accomplish. I would argue they have unreasonable expectations period.
During an appearance on Chuck Todd and Savannah Guthrie’s Daily Rundown, Washington Post columnist Ruth Marcus may have one-upped Robert Gibbs‘ “Professional Left” comments. Having already written a column agreeing with Gibbs, she told Chuck, Savannah, and Anita Dunn that the left and the blogosphere are “deranged.”
Of course, Gibbs didn't criticize the left for attacking Republicans. He is concerned they are attacking President Obama. The Hill reported:
The press secretary dismissed the “professional left” in terms very similar to those used by their opponents on the ideological right, saying, “They will be satisfied when we have Canadian healthcare and we’ve eliminated the Pentagon. That’s not reality.”
Jon Stewart is a very funny guy, but there is little humor in this eight minute smack-down. Stewart takes President Obama to task for breaking almost every campaign promise he made to curb what the left sees as abuse of terrorists rights in the war on terror. The left is feeling very frustrated because President Obama is actually expanding and defending many of the Bush policies he campaigned against.
The left and labor unions are working to defeat two-term Democratic incumbent Senator Blanch Lincoln. It seems Lincoln may be to much to the left to win re-election in the general election this fall, but she is still too far to the right for labor unions and liberals. Bill Clinton is 'pounding' the podium in her defense.
Using unusually vivid language to describe the threat against Sen. Blanche Lincoln, Clinton urged the voters who nurtured his career to resist outside forces bent on making an example out of the two-term Democratic incumbent....
He pounded the podium with Lincoln at his side, warning that national liberal and labor groups wanted to make her a “poster child” in the June 8 Senate run-off to send a message about what happens to Democrats who don’t toe the party line.
Shouldn't they be worrying terrorism will kill Americans?
Did you notice how hard Democrats and those on the left are working to spin the Times Square bombing as a success for the Obama administration. The truth is it was a total intelligence failure and there was nothing authorities did that saved any lives. Certainly, the police and bystanders and authorities reacted bravely and effectively once the bomb was discovered, but the thing that saved lives was the failure of the device to explode. Bystanders saw smoke after the detonation failure and called authorities who safely disarmed the device. If the bomb had blew up, many would have died. Then, we barely caught the man responsible before he fled the country. His overseas flight was already taxiing for takeoff and had to be returned to the gate. If the device had detonated, the evidence would have been much more time consuming to sort out and Faisal Shahzad would have likely escaped to the Middle East.
Freedomworks has produced this viral vile video collection of their emails and voice-mails from progressives. Don't click the video if you are easily offended. I hesitated to post this video, but the truth about the left must be exposed.
Warning: Full of profanity, harsh language and violent rhetoric.
President Obama seems to be in perpetual campaign mode. It is hard to find a time he is not on television. There is a certain narcissism about him. Obama also hasn't demonstrated any serious ability to lead this country. In spite of the election being almost one year ago, he is still beating the "blame Bush" drum. America can not be lead forward by a self-centered individual who is constantly looking backward. Obama needs to remember he ran for the job of President, not movie star.
The president’s problem isn’t that he is too visible; it’s the lack of content in what he says when he keeps showing up on the tube. Obama can seem a mite too impressed with his own aura, as if his presence on the stage is the Answer. There is, at times, a self-referential (even self-reverential) tone in his big speeches. They are heavily salted with the words “I” and “my.” (He used the former 11 times in the first few paragraphs of his address to the U.N. last week.) Obama is a historic figure, but that is the beginning, not the end, of the story.
