when bush was president i remember people complaining about
:
- the (possibly illegal, definitely unwise) war he started
- his infringements on privacy and civil rights
- his failure to stop what he was doing and make an appearance during an ongoing natural disaster
- his record-setting vacation time
i don't recall hearing anything negative about
:
- what his wife was doing as first lady
- every single state visit he did or did not make (ones obama goes to are "vacations", ones he doesn't go to are shameful snubs)
- every weekend trip or night out he took
the only thing i can think of that bush was routinely attacked for that even approaches the pettiness of what people here say about obama every day is his silly misstatements.
it's telling that i've brought up the fact that people criticized obama for going to the anniversary of d-day several times in threads on this subject and not one person criticizing obama for not going to this anniversary has addressed it. the hypocrisy here is blatant. i'm sure i could go back and find some of the same people who are attacking obama for not going to germany attacking him for going to france.
