As best I can determine, following a careful read of the *Hard Left* hate
blogs and the attendant worshipful comments, there are approximately ten
primary categories of *Obama Hater*, with one bonus. I offer them to you
hoping to provoke thought and discussion:

1. *The Revengers*: They want or wanted a Democratic president who behaved
like Mr. Bush, but for *progressive* causes, meaning not acting with a
measure of care, but with the “bull in the china shop” mentality. These folk
are extremely upset by Obama’s attempts to govern with even a modicum of
civility, claiming that arrogance and aggression are the best ways to get
the job done.

2. *The Hippies*: They want absolutely no war and no confrontation
whatsoever, regardless of the purpose, the reason, or rationale. The Iraq
and Afghanistan conflicts were supposed to be ended immediately following
the Obama’s inauguration and we weren’t supposed to actually *help* the
oppressed Libyan Rebels by using real weapons of war against the oppressive
Ghadaffi regime. There has to be a better way than actually hurting bad
people and screw the UN.

3. *The Unknowing Racist*: They are progressive but never really wanted or
thought Obama could handle the job. They don’t necessarily hate minorities,
but can unknowingly hold them to much higher standards.

4. *The Professional Lefties*: These are the folks who look to profit from
or further their careers by stoking anger in the frustrated and naive
progressive.

5. *The Dull and Ignorant*: Those who have absolutely no understanding of
the three branches of government and believe that Barack Obama possesses
magical powers in the spirit of Harry Potter.

6. *The Passive Aggressives*: Haters in their own right who can
*never*acknowledge the president’s accomplishments because they are
too busy hating
him and what he doesn’t do for them. Universal health care, an impossible to
reach goal in 2010, is a good example. It doesn’t matter to the Haters that
he accomplished something no president has been able to do since FDR,
because they cannot see through their blind and intolerant hate of Obama.

7. *The Out-of-Towners*: Those who don’t even live in America (sometimes
Canadian and unemployed) who presume to pass judgment on our leaders, while
pandering to the Hard Left and stoking the fires of the Obama Hate.

8.* The Pious and Principled*: These folks think that democrats who don’t
think like them are “unprincipled and pathetic.” Now this is the same group
of nutters who complain that the mainstream democrats are wrong to debate
the Hard Left viewpoint and dare to actually like Obama. What? Since when is
disagreement unprincipled and pathetic?

9. *The Obfuscating Haters*: Now these guys are the ones who will tell you
that Obama is in the pocket of the corporations and Wall Street. They can’t
tell you why, they just know it in their bones because they hate Obama. What
makes matters worse is they blog about it, offering information that is just
made from whole cloth and carries not one word of truth.

10. *The Real Racists*: We hate to admit it, but there are democrats who are
racists, and some of them are extreme. They stay in the closet for the most
part but from time to time their virulent hate can be seen peeking out from
behind their words. These are the ones, and they may be minorities
themselves, who are the most dangerous because the Hard Left is easily led
by the nose and this sort of false rhetoric feeds into their naivete. If you
want proof of this visit an Obama Hater blog and read the lofty but vicious
rhetoric and obsequious comments.

The list is not complete of course, but time marches on and life it too
short. I will however, leave you with a bonus:

11. *The Sky is Falling Gang*: These folks blame Obama for the Gulf oil
spill because they are convinced that he was and is in collusion with BP and
the other big oil companies, with his goal being to destroy the world to
make himself uber-rich like Donald Trump. These nutters, including
progressive star Dennis Kucinich, said that President of the United States
Barack Obama should be combing the beaches of Louisiana picking up oil
otherwise life as we know it would end.

Sigh. It’s enough to wear you out isn’t it?

I will leave you with the words, more or less, of Dan Halen, a commenter
over at Cesca’s <http://www.bobcesca.com/>: *The Obama Haters are playing
checkers while the president is playing chess!*
