Hopefully, they'll fade away into the pages of history.

This. And if they're still out and working then they'll probably be complete hacks for the republicans. They won't complain anymore about a tyrannical government or presidential power grabs as long as the person they like is in power.

Like I said,

Just like all the liberals who complained loudly and nonstop about Bush for 8 years. Then did a complete 180 and have since supported Obama/the Democrats 100% in every instance even when the White House pushes for the same exact policies that the previous occupant did.

Ex. Debt ceiling and NSA Surveillance as one example. Hell if you look at many of the left-wing members of this forum who bitched and complained non-stop about GWB suppressing civil liberties and more for 8 years they do a complete turnaround and support Obama over the same things.



How old are you? Do you actually remember the Bush administration? Sure, liberals criticized bush, and yes, some are turning a blind eye to the same bad stuff the Obama administration is doing, but opposition to Bush was NOTHING like the tea party today.

First of all, most liberals kept their mouths shut after 9/11 and basically gave Bush free reign to start the war on terror. Honestly, I wish they had spoken up, but the administration created this false dichotomy where you either supported Bus or hated America. Bush basically got a free pass for a couple years, while Obama from day 1 had to deal with the tea party. Bush never had to face rumors that questioned his faith, patriotism or his citizenship. Democrats never threatened to shut down the government to spite Bush when they took control of congress. And Laura Bush was never compared to a monkey or a cow.
