Back in Jan 2008 I stated I hoped Obama would defeat Hillary. Boy was I wrong.

I also agree he is being blocked by Congress and with ypur reasons.

Here is another reason of why he does not get any cooperation from Congress. This has been his modus operandi since he took office.

FALTERING OBAMA REVS UP ATTACKS - President Obama is back in attack mode. Obama’s tone, which was briefly contrite following his admission that he had misled voters about being able to keep their insurance policies, turned combative during his West Coast campaign swing. He blamed Republicans for problems with his faltering health law, promising that “anybody who is going to keep on pushing against that, they will meet my resistance.” Obama is very much reverting to his 2012 playbook: firing up the base with sharp attacks on Republicans and personalizing policy differences. That’s one thing in an election when he could pin it on an individual opponent, but quite another when the issue is a law passed with only Democratic votes and enacted by his own administration. While liberals may be feeling less bilious as signups for free and subsidized health insurance pick up, the problem is all about the people who are losing coverage and jobs because of the law.

Bush was not a true conservative. I could point you to many examples where I was not happy with President Bush. But there is no point since I will never change your cynicism either in regard to this must be a racial issue.

One last thing and then I will get off this subject. While I and other conservatives have been critical of Bush., I don't believe I have ever heard a liberal be critical of Obama or any of his policies. Is that due to race or political perspective. In fact there has been no criticism from a liberal of any Democrat that I can recall. No politician is that perfect.

Thanks for reading my opinions as well. Other calling me a racist, this post was otherwise civil which is the way it should be.

Has your wallet gotten fat in the stock market? If it hasn't you need to fire your financial advisor.

Looking at your posting history, those of you that currently oppose Obama had no criticism of G W Bush, his performance in office, his appointees, or any other aspects of his presidency, but were quite vocal about the president before him. I happened to have loved that guy, despite his transgressions. Again, I am finding your criticisms to divide more on party lines and race and less on what is truly relevant.
I will never change your cynicism, but thought I would offer up my perspective. It is truly a shame when we get blinded to the point of hatred and intolerance.

I will probably not venture in this political off-topic forum again... but thanks for reading.

I am trying to understand where all this hate for Obama is coming from. I am neither democrat nor republican. I simply want a good leader in place that I can support, regarless of his party affiliation, to improve my life and and that of those around me.
And from where I sit, I seem to think that the current president is doing a pretty darn good job, especially given the fierce opposition he is facing from republicans.
Is all this hatred because he is democrat or because he is black? I was not going to say anything with regard to this topic, but as an outsider, who does not have a dog in this race, I thought I would chime in
It seems that you can't get out of your own ways to put down just about anything this administration does. Peace out!!!
