It's obvious that the level of criticism of the government is, for most people, mostly a matter of which gang they support rather than real thought or analysis. Bush Derangement Syndrome or Obama Derangement Syndrome, it's much the same.

One key indicator is when something that made them nuts when the other party was doing it is perfectly okay when their party is doing it. Have you noticed the protests that dried up when Obama became president, even though the policies remained the same? Did you notice that Bush got away with spending excesses that would have made Republicans crazy if a Democratic president was signing the bills?

Despite your attempts to reconstruct reality into some fantasy Mobius configuration in these discussions, the Left is no less likely to go off the deep end in these things than the Right is, on the Internet or on the streets, as is amply demonstrated by history. In fact, until recently the idea of a "conservative protest march" was almost an oxymoron.

It's interesting that the media, normally politically correct to the point of psychosis, has no problem with using an obscene term when it serves their agenda.
