Remember this stuff?

15 Most Ridiculous Moments Fox News Attacked Barack Obama

Or what about the accusation of Obama wire tapping Trump, is that Obama Derangement Syndrome?

It seems like conservatives talking about Trump Derangement Syndrome are saying do as I say not as I do, criticizing Trump is Trump Derangement Syndrome, but complaining about Obama having a tan suit or eating mustard is fine.

Ummm...

You ARE aware that Obama wiretapped Trump, right?

Remember Carter Page FISA? That's what that was all about.

Re: Did conservatives suffer from Obama Derangement Syndrome when he was President?

You mean this: ''Remember Carter Page FISA? That's what that was all about.''

That is not much in the way of evidence, where are your sources?

Did you read that article I posted?

Also, it doesn't seem like the DOJ agrees with you:

DOJ inspector general refutes Trump claim that Obama tapped his wires | TheHill

But The Great Q said it happened, so clearly everyone disagreeing is wrong. The Great Q is never wrong...

Re: Did conservatives suffer from Obama Derangement Syndrome when he was President?

Can't you read? I already gave you factual evidence.

No, you made a claim, without offering any actual links or real evidence that it was true. Do try and fail less.

You act like you've never heard of the Carter Page FISA surveillance. Have you had your head in the sand all this time?

Your evidence was one sentence, I provided 2 articles, including a quote from the DOJ that said Obama did not wiretap Trump.

Maybe you should apply for your own signature to yourself and dismiss yourself. If you posted 2 articles and I came back with a sentence and said that trumped the articles, including a DOJ quote, you would totally dismiss that.

You are dismissed, look at your own signature, and try harder next time.

Yes but, under Trump, the left have taken it to all new levels.

How would you determine that the left took it a new level than the Right did?

So are conservatives being hypocrites when they invoke Trump Derangement Syndrome if they made ridiculous criticism of Obama and would freak out over the tiniest things with him? It seems like they want to apply rules to other people that they will not apply to themselves.

I agree to a degree. Actually to about ninety nine degrees. Things couldn't have gotten any worse for the right than having a black democratic president and trump played on it masterfully.

And to keep the record straight, the right never said a negative word about the guy who wasn't born here.

there was a certain amount of whining. Fox certainly went overboard with tan suits and all.

But mostly the conservatives overreacted to every little policy move - like a Dem was ever going to do things they agree with anyway. It was a lot less reasonable than getting one's panties in a bunch over Trump's blatant corruption and incompetence.

Re: Did conservatives suffer from Obama Derangement Syndrome when he was President?

Most of the conservative ire relating to Obama was based on his policies and his partisan behavior. Very little of the left's collective TDS is related to actual policies. It's based almost entirely on knee-jerk hatred, fomented by the democrat's communication arm, ie. the "news" media. Trump has already done FAR more to help black people AND the working class than Obama did in 2 terms! Biden and Harris are worse than Obama, because they've supported policies that have put lots of blacks in prison over minor, non-violent drug beefs! Trump has ALREADY promoted prison reform, which Obama never did!

But none of that matters, because it's NOT really about policy! It's about HATING Trump!

So the complaints about Obama's tan suit or eating mustard were not petty and partisan? Care to explain that?

If you wind up the phonograph, the talk radio right wingers will repeat all of it, and swear that it is all true.

72% of registered Republicans were Birthers.

Seventy. Two. Percent.


So with that in mind, I'll let people answer that question for themselves.

I dunno. How many "evil right-wingers" rioted in the streets, and caused billions of dollars of damage from coast to coast?

Re: Did conservatives suffer from Obama Derangement Syndrome when he was President?

The Oklahoma City bomber was "right wing?" Show me one right-leaning person who sides with that jackhole. That, versus MANY left-wingers who brazenly condone the billions of dollars worth of damage done. How many times have left-wing "peaceful" protesters accept the destruction of small businesses by saying "oh, they have insurance." No jackhole, you just destroyed that small business owner's livelihood.

How man Republicans have denounced radical right-wing groups like the KKK (founded by the Democrats, by the way)?

This isn't about dick-measuring. This is about the difference between protests and riots, and how each side has responded. Joe Biden refuses to denounce Antifa because he's scared of them. He's TERRIFIED of losing their votes. Trump, on the other hand, openly condemns radical right-wing groups like the KKK.
