Next year in Washington

Assuming that Obama "wins" the election and takes office next year, I'm wondering whether these things, which were a centerpiece of opposition party politics over the past eight years, will still be acceptable...

Can we still refer to the President as "chimpy"?

Will dissent still be the highest form of patriotism?

Will it be permissible to state that Obama is "Not My President"?

Will we be able to claim that everything Obama does is a lie?

Can we insist that Obama stole the election?

Can we plaster our cars with "IMPEACH OBAMA" stickers?

Can we call him "Worst. President. Ever" from the day he takes office?

I'm betting that any of the above will be met with allegations of racism by the press and the rest of the left wing.

I'm also betting that all of a sudden no one blames the President for the problems in the economy or the world or society in general once Obama takes office. Of course, the fact that Congress has been controlled by Democrats for the last two years seems to have been lost on most pundits anyway.
