If President Obama succeeds in inspiring mutual respect and dignity among
communities of disparate cultures, the Far Right's scarecrow of fear and suspicion is dismembered.

2. Ol' Rush has a huge investment in debasing this president. Rush's stock
has fallen lately. His ratings may be good but his audience appears to be very angry and maybe unstable.

If Obama succeeds, Limbaugh and the rest of the hatemongers will be increasingly at a loss to justify their anti-Obama hate talk.

4. Hi, BlooInBloo.
The Right has tried to smear Judge Sotomayor, just to cite one recent example. Evidently they thought they could wound the president by attacking his Supreme Court nominee, also evidently forgetting that they likely can't win elections if they disparage huge constituencies.

The Republicans are a sorry lot these days.
