BHODS

It was Charles Krauthammer who coined the annoyingly-overused phrase "Bush Derangement Syndrome," defining it as:
...the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency — nay — the very existence of George W. Bush.
At the time, he surely recognized that it was just a matter of time before the shoe would be on the other foot. And while the Right at large had shown signs all year of the early stages of "Barack Hussein Obama Derangement Syndrome," we may have our first official case in an elected official.

Republican Congressman Paul Broun, within the hour, has taken back his taking back of comments about Obama planning to build a domestic security force so that he can impose a Marxist dictatorship. Meant it just the way he said it, thank you very much.

Keep talking, "Congressman." It's nice to have a little post-election comic relief!
