Barack Obama

on DU love to shit on the BOG (weird on a supposedly Democratic site, right?), and portray the regulars here as somehow Obama "shills" or "worshipers". It's not so much that we worship him or necessarily agree with everything he does (I disagree with his stance on the TPP, for example), but most of us here know not to subject ourselves to absolutist thinking and neglect the positives from his agenda just because of a few things we are at odds with him on. In general, though, absolutism appears to be a running theme on much of DU; if you don't agree with someone 100%, you are a centrist or Republican-lite. If you follow religion, then you are an idiot. And so on.
This type of behavior gets tiring after a while.
