Hillary got over it and so should you

Nearly two years after the inauguration of Barack Obama, die hard Hillary Clinton supporters persist in their ridiculous and laughable campaigns to discredit our democratically elected president. I'm not really clear as to their ultimate agenda unless the goal is to ensure future losses within the Democratic Party and the ultimate transfer of Congress and the White House to the Rethuglicans. The more rabid crazies point frantically to the "promises that Obama hasn't kept" as proof of his perfidy http://www.newser.com/story/108376/promises-that-obamas-apparently-forgotten.html . This is a bit like telling a mountaineer who has just scaled the world's three tallest peaks that she is a failure for not planting the flag atop Mt. Dora, Florida (elev 144 ft).

Let's now look at the perspective of Frank Schaeffer, a self-proclaimed survivor of an evangelical and fundamentalist childhood http://www.huffingtonpost.com/frank-schaeffer/obamas-lefty-critics-owe-_b_802911.html . To quote Mr. Schaeffer, "I'm beginning to think that some people on the Left of the left [...] have such an ego claim to having been smarter than President Obama that they really would rather the news stay bad to prove them right." Sounds a bit like those asshole Rethuglicans who would rather see the country spiral into further economic distress than to admit that President Obama's economic policies are working. To these petulant brats, I say, get over it.
