President Obama..

[Carloscda]

After sitting back and taking in all that is going on right now, I'm so sick & tired of people dissing this man & his family!! Lets be Clear the only reason all this hate & rhetoric is at a all time fever pitch is because the man is Black!!

People coming out the woodwork all of a sudden speaking out against him?! Umm where were all of you when Bush used his propaganda machine to scare use into Iraq?! This man lied so much that he had the undercover agents identities exposed when they were about to put him on blast! Where was the outcry then?!

You have people saying he's ruining the country, he's promised false hope. Really...

This recession started a yr before the man was even in office!! Hundreds of thousands of jobs were lost before the man came into office! But how convenient it is that you don't hear about that from the right?!

No President has come into office with 2 wars & a recession going on, No One!! But it's all good let the black man handle it and we can blame him!

Like he said when he started this journey this is going to be a marathon not a sprint! It took a decade to get where we're at now and it's going to take yrs to get out of this mess but for some reason People just don't get it??

And now people are complaining about Michelle Obama because she's advocating healthy life styles for our kids. Even though Doctors, fitness experts etc have been saying this for yrs now we need to do something about the food our kids are consuming! Especially in the black community with the high blood pressure, diabetes, heart conditions etc.. that alot of us suffer from.

You have Palin giving advice, saying how she could've done a better job, Really?! She couldn't even finish her term as governor straight lying saying how she wants to spend more time at home with kids. But low & behold she's doing speaking engagements, tv shows etc.. Don't hear anyone bringing that up?!

You can call me a Obamabot, WTFE!! It wouldn't have mattered if he was green I voted for him because he's smart & intelligent and was about uniting! Like he said it's not about me it's about all of us!!

But on the other hand you have some reps saying how they're going to break him, we're going to say No to everything! Yea, that's a good way to put this country back on its feet!!

If the President fails we all fail but some just don't get it??!!

Pissed Off....

Like the 91 percent of blacks in this country who were recently polled, you don't get it.

The reason I hate on the guy is basic: he's a liar, spent more in the first two years in office than the last 43 presidents combined, Obamacare, Cap n Trade, his Apology Tours... and on and on.

Know why his latest Apology Tours are being held in people's backyards? Cuz if they did 'em in the front yard they'd have to move all the Forclosure Sale signs out of the way.

Now there's an original thought. We've never heard that on this board before.

NONSENSE

Obamas socialist agenda is the reason for the backlash.....It is possible to disagree, or even dislike a black person without it being racism.

Thank you. I've never quite understood the rationale for including racial matters into political discussions, as it seems to belong on a high school debating team's list of last gasp and purely desperate options for winning an argument, followed only by "I know you are but what am I?". Voicing disapproval of the Obama regime's performance in the White House makes a person a racist no more than disagreeing with the political choices of Israel makes a person antisemitic.

Uh-huh. Did you wake up this morning and decide that any thought that entered your head would somehow add relevance your post? A little fact checking reveals that a handful of Presidents had things a tad bit worse than Mr. Obama, yet they somehow managed to persevere without a great deal of whining by their supporters. And as for your theory about Presidents during wartime, it holds water like a cheese grater...

* George Washington: war with Native Americans in Ohio
* Thomas Jefferson: Tripolitan War, 1800-1805, against the Barbary pirates
* James Madison - War of 1812, 1812-1814, against the British

I certainly agree that not everyone who opposes Obama's Administration is somehow racist, I would say that idiotic conspiracy theories regarding the Kenyan and Muslim bullshit are both highly tainted with racist bias. Furthermore, teabaggers and extremists would never have made such baseless horseshit claims against a white president whose father had been from Britain in identical circumstances...

I think people were hoping Barrack would be change for the better but his policies are tearing this country down and making the economic situation worse. It's become clear to the people this president doesn't give a ratt's ass about what you want and is set on getting as much of his agenda done as he can even if it destroys small to medium sized businesses and skyrockets the debt. Obama has been a disaster and has only made things worse. Everyone with the exception of the welfare rat will be glad to see him go.

How exactly has he "destroyed small and medium sized business?" And the debt was already skyrocketing due to this thing called an economic recession that began under Bush coupled with his tax cuts for the wealthy, foreign wars we hemorrhaged both 'blood and treasure' on, and had root in many of Bush's (and Clinton's) economic policies and was easily predictable as far back as the corporate scandals involving ENRON, World Comm, Adelphia, etc....

Obama being elected basically proved the US will finally vote a person into the executive branch regardless of their color. That was the only historic thing about this president. Too bad it wasn't someone with some integrity. The thing is, now that hype is over and people are looking for real solutions to the problems and they look at this guy taking over private industry and running up a huge deficit while smugly chastising people who have lost their jobs and homes to buck up while he and his wife take luxury vacations and throw lavish parties. Can you say out of touch and don't care? What about the hard working black people who built their own businesses and this asshole is out to ruin them with Obamacare and cap and trade? The overhead will be so huge and the government paperwork and inspections so thick, you just don't want to do it anymore. Of course the people still in the Obama hypefest don't see the reality.

Obama is an idealogue who has no concept of how free market capitalism works, yet he continues to preach radical change...

As far as i'm concerned, Obama can keep the change...
