Originally posted by BrennanOB: I hear from folks on the left (code pink, the guys in the "medical" marijuana business, ect.) how much they are angered at Obama. It is not too surprising given how diverse his constituency was in the first election, but what surprises me is that the only voices that are heard objecting to Obama on the popular news come from the right.
I think if the folks on the right who think Obama is a socialist radical could hear the condemnation of his administration from real socialist radicals, real peace advocates, real anti wall street agitators, fans of a single payer healthcare system, ect. ect. ect, they might be shocked into seeing the Obama administration a bit more as I see it, as a centrist administration.
But the far left has a very small voice in the media landscape of America, while the far right is massively over represented. |
