So while you're out dipping your teabags on John McCain's head and attacking what you think are a few left-wing nut jobs who somehow hoodwinked an entire nation, 300 million people have realized that it was all based on hate and anger and greed and self-interest. And they're not buying it anymore.

It's hard to take a post with such unadulterated hyperbole seriously.
Obama received 69,456,897 of the popular vote. How does that translate to 300,000,000? Did all 69+ million base their vote on the perception that McCain's campaign was based on hate, anger, greed and self-interest? Does that mean that no one voted
for Obama's platform - just
against the "hate, etc." of McCain?
The irony of this point is delicious, since to a "normal" person, the entire OP was based on hate and anger - probably induced from an OD of listening to the hate mongers that exist on the left (Olberman, Randi Rhodes, et al) versus the ones on the right that the poster derides.
