Has the opposing party and the media ever gone after a President like what Obama has experienced? The volume and audacity of the attacks are staggering.

Oh, have they ever. I can see it's time to run this again.

Don't make me run the anti-Jefferson cartoon again.

Anti-Obama billboard raises eyebrows - Caricatures are racist and homophobic, local Dems say

"There is no new thing under the sun."

Is that all? This is a cariacture of the sainted Jefferson from over two hundred years ago:

The prairie dog sickened at the sting of the hornet or a diplomatic puppet exhibiting his deceptions



Summary: James Akin's earliest-known signed cartoon, "The Prairie Dog" is an anti-Jefferson satire, relating to Jefferson's covert negotiations for the purchase of West Florida from Spain in 1804. Jefferson, as a scrawny dog, is stung by a hornet with Napoleon's head into coughing up "Two Millions" in gold coins, (the secret appropriation Jefferson sought from Congress for the purchase). On the right dances a man (possibly a French diplomat) with orders from French minister Talleyrand in his pocket and maps of East Florida and West Florida in his hand. He says, "A gull for the People."

I post this picture every time someone says, of politics, that it has never before been this bad or that it has hit a new low. As you can see, that is not the case.

The best comment on the subject was written over two thousand years ago.

Ecclesiastes 1-9

The thing that has been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

I love the fact that, in 2 years or so, this president will exit the highest office in the world, and he will look back and smile at the fact that, EVERYTHING the teabaggers, right wingers, racists, etc., etc., etc., threw at him did not stick. He will look back and say "hey idiots...you still have your guns, the only death panels are the Supreme Court, the idiotic people like Bachmann, McConnell, Boehner, Orliy Tant, or whoever, Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Hannity, Fox news, CNN, main stream media, Palin, McCain and his girlfriend Lindsey Graham, the entire nation of the Soviet Union, ISIS, and so on and so on did not break me"..... IRS scandal....nothing, the thousands of hearings on Benghazi....nothing, Fast and Furious....nothing, all the while, cutting unemployment to 5.8%, lower deficit spending, sustained job growth for 50ish months in a row, delivered healthcare to millions, pumped life into the auto industry when Romney and others said for it too die, was Commander in chief when Bin Laden was killed, and did not say as the previous chief said...."uhhhh, we don't know where he is, we don't care where he is"... The things the right did do were...obstruct, block, penalize, threaten, and cause this country to lose face and faith.......
