Has anyone else noticed that with the change in Presidential administrations a number of posters have exchanged hats (i.e. protesters have become supporters and vice versa)? With this cosmic shift in positions they also appear to have swapped arguments, the reasoning and descriptives are similar with the nouns changing.
Let's have a little fun with this and come up with the words used by the Obama supporters/detractors and the corresponding words used by the Bush supporters/detractors just one or more years ago. I'll start:
Obama / Bush
Greedy & Selfish / Unpatriotic (i.e. anyone who opposes GWB's Iraq policy is unpatriotic / Obama's healthcare initiative is greedy & selfish)
Angry White Men / ?
