TPM Watch: Ed Kilgore

Tee hee:

It seems to me that conservatives today have almost completely internalized their own rhetoric about Obama's "radicalism," "socialism," "anti-Americanism," and so forth. If you have read or listened to movement conservative pundits recently, it's hard to avoid the impression that they truly think this temperate man pursuing Clinton-style centrist policies is determined to enact "socialized medicine," create vast new "welfare" programs, legalize infanticide, surrender to terrorists, and use the power of the state to censor or perhaps even jail his opponents.

Now where would we get that stuff? It's not like we invented Obama. He is who he is.

Saying we have had to convince ourselves of Obama's shortcomings is amusing, but the emphasized part above is a real hoot.
