This is nothing short if hilarious. Listening to Republicans and conservatives talking about others being divisive is almost laughable these days. Consider the following comments made by conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh, emerging as spokesperson for the Republican Party:
President Obama has the ability — he has the ability to inspire excellence in people’s pursuits. He has the ability to do all this. And yet he pursues a path, seeks a path that punishes achievement. That punishes earners. That punishes — and he speaks negatively of the country.
Ronald Reagan used to speak of the shining city on a hill. Barack Obama portrays America as a soup kitchen in some dark night in a corner of America that’s very obscure. He constantly is telling people that bad times are ahead, worse times are ahead. And it’s troubling because this is the United States of America.
… President Obama is so busy trying to create anger, and an atmosphere of crisis. He is so busy fueling the emotions of class envy that he has forgotten: It’s not his money he is spending.
The atmosphere of anger and crisis, created during a Republican eight-year administration, is what helped bring President Obama to the presidency. Limbaugh is comparing eight years of Ronald Reagan to a little over a month of president Obama. It just shows the ignorance of Rush Limbaugh. He is already judging Obama harshly after riding president George W. Bush’s jock for most of the prior eight years.
