Where is the unity Obama campaigned on?

David Limbaugh:

...

How, inquiring minds wonder, can Obama join us all together -- bitter clingers and all -- in one big communal bond of sentimental good will if he can't even inspire unity in his own party?

That's unfair, you say? It's not his fault? It's those grudge-holding Clintons and their die-hard supporters who won't bury the hatchet?

Oh? I thought it was George W. Bush's fault that the countries of Old Europe wouldn't support the American efforts against Iraq. I thought it was Dubya's fault -- that evil, unilateralist, go-it-alone cowboy -- that the United Nations wouldn't do the right thing and enforce its own resolutions that Saddam Hussein had violated at will.

Democrats told us that had they been in charge, the world would have melted in their diplomatic hands. It was Dubya's fault the world wouldn't get on board. Shame on Dubya for not placing "unity" and "bilateralism" -- you know, getting along for the sake of getting along -- ahead of national interests.

Democrats also railed against Bush for failing in his promise to bring the country together, to usher in a spirit of conviviality across party lines, as he had done as Texas governor.

Never mind that he did reach out ad nauseam to Democrats, even courting the ideologically hostile Ted Kennedy. Never mind that Democrats and their fellow leftist Bush Derangement Syndrome enablers were engulfed in blue flames of unquenchable hatred for George Bush and depicted him daily as "Hitler" and "the enemy." No, it was all George Bush's fault that the country didn't come together. It was his fault they couldn't forgive him for sins he hadn’t committed.

Shouldn't these people who held Bush to the impossible standard of winning the favor of terrorists, recalcitrant nations and an unappeasably hostile opposition party be held to the much easier standard of unifying just their own party?

As I pointed out below the guy can't even lead his own church members to a sane position on Aids. What David points out is the emptiness of Obama's rhetoric that has been apparent since the Rev. Wright CD's surfaced on ABC. That was a turning point in this election and Obama has been on defense ever since.
