Why Can't Republicans EVER Be Nice?

John Walkenbach pointed to a cute little article over at ABC news about Barack getting a gift for his wife on their anniversary. Then he posted some snarky comments from conservatives who never met a human being they couldn't slam with insults. Nice folks, aren't they? Probably go to church every Sunday to prove how pious they are.

A clip from the article...

In the town of Glenside, PA Obama's motorcade made an unannounced stop at Penny's Flowers so the Senator could buy Michelle Obama flowers for their 16th wedding anniversary.

And just one of the comments...

BO is a criminal do nothing. He is lazy, sub-standard, made it this far because of Affirmative Action and using race to play the pity party to the benefit of his pocket and all of his friend's pockets (Rezko, Wright, Pflegger, his wife's, etc., etc.).
