You use a literary trick to hide behind the fact that you're lumping everyone in the Democratic Party who isn't happy with the President - creating some illusion of an "angry left". You offer the oft-abused excusetroll comparison to the end of the Civil War. 'It takes a long time to fix things.' As if ending rendition, withdrawing troops from unwinnable conflicts, disbanding corrupt bushie sub-groups within government, and appointing rubin disciples and hacks to critical Administration positions are too hard.
You apparently ignored the ease at which dubya lowered taxes on the rich, virtually handed over national lands to mining and exploration companies, implemented massive corporate welfare plans, unraveled regulatory oversight, abused civil rights - all with a far smaller Congressional majority than Obama has now.
And if that's not enough, you offer a cute, condescending quip above that you're more left than the commenter. As if that matters, can be measured, or alters the reality of the facts on the ground.
As was said many times during the waning years of the bush 2 travesty, "if you're not angry, you're not paying attention.
But even if you took all of THAT into consideration and you're STILL not angry, then I suspect your threshold for pain is so abnormally high that you're not a valid judge of whose emotional condition is more reasonable.
