    Obama

    I'd like to hear peoples opinions on Obama. He's a poilitian, and it don't like politicians. But it seems as if everyone else loves him. Maybe it's because he represents equality between blacks and whites. I don't know. But I think that idea hinders peoples veiw of him. I think the fact that he's black gives people confidence that things are changing and getting better. It distracts them from the other wrongs. Maybe I'm wrong. That's why I'm posting this. Enlighten me.

    Where's the change? Are your lives or standard of living any better? Is our deficit any smaller? How about the unemployment rate; any better? What about the statements of a more transparent government? All I read about is how the press is being limited. Kind of like kicking FOX out of the presidential debates.....should have been a sign to all to what "change" really meant.

    Seems to me that if the people in the U.S. were really still on board we'd be seeing quite a different look in the current elections not to mention the growth of the Tea Party.

    I stated during the elections that he'd be Jimmy Carter part 2. We're on the verge of double digit unemployment.....just wait till the same happens with inflation and interest rates.

    I will say that he did ease up on the fed hassling innocent people about m.j.. Well, that and a few token laws regarding gay rights. I hope nobody includes health-care as part of his accomplishments; most of the people were against it in the end and we still haven't felt the repercussions of this action.

    Have a good one!:s4:

    A TOTAL FRAUD. Just another tax and spend liberal to the left of national joke Jimmy Carter. Made ANY promise he could make to get elected and now can't follow through on a damn thing. Obama is all hat and no cattle.

    Campaigned as someone completely different, got elected, went down the special interest, sellout, big money leftist route and will now lose all his majorities in November.

    Who loves him? Dudes popularity has fallen faster than any president in HISTORY including the much hated Bush. Atleast Bush had balls and did what he said even if we hated it. Obama leads like a wife.....tells ya he's gonna do one thing and does the exact opposite.

    A lot of the people I talk to who love him are ignorants who don't follow up on current events. He really hasn't done nearly enough to deserve the credit he's getting. I mean... a nobel prize? Really?

    No one liked Bush because he wasn't sneaky and got caught with half the shit he did. I think Obama will eventually get there though.

    The media portrays him to be amazing and people eat that shit up. He talks out his ass just like any politician. And if he's the president of America obviously he's not going to be worth a shit anyway. Times abviously aren't what they used to be, and even people who are more worthy of being president won't be.

    Corrupt. Greedy.

    Personally, I think Obama is great. Anyone that thinks he is a messiah is dumb, as are those that blindly hate him because of his liberal values and actions, yet ignore his repeated attempts to reach out to the other side.

    He is a politician, so he is bound to be imperfect, it is a given, and I think everyone knows this. But saying he is a total fraud is crap. I'm sorry, but Obama has done a lot of good for this country. He kept us out of another Great Depression (you can't rebuild a shattered economy in a few months, or heck, even a year or two, it takes time, and things are getting better, so stop demanding a quick fix to an insanely complex and huge problem), and set us up for universal health care.

    Thats right, someone that appreciates being able to buy affordable health care despite pre existing conditions. And what's this? in a few years we will see millions of lives saved because of health care being available to those that need it... the poor and sick. Yes, those are all good things. There are some bad aspects to it, but i cant think of too many "Perfect Bills" out there, and it has a bunch of good in it.

    I say give the man a break, and give him time. Rome wasn't built in a day, and America won't be rebuilt in one. Am I the only one that understands that?

    I didn't vote for him, I voted for the other crooks on the ballot but I think he's alright. He has stuck to his word so far about honoring the constitution and not trying to trump the will of MMJ states. that makes exponentially better than the two Presidents before him. :twocents: I am just about the opposite of him politically, I am am a conservative libertarian and he seems to be another in a long line of statists, but other than that he's alright.

    what i wonder sometimes with people like you is i wonder if you will think that when the time comes when they are kicking your door in.....wonder how that will play out in your mind?

    Obama has lied about every promise he made on his campaign. Don't believe his pretty smile and beautiful speech craft.
    1) Bring an end to the wars, he's expanded them.
    2) No patriot act, he resigned it without edits just like Bush.
    3) No Lobbyists in his admin, fills every position with lobbyists from Goldman Sachs, defense contractors and more.
    4) Banker takeover bill, Obama has pushed and passed giving $28 billion according to Bloomberg to the banks of U.S. taxpayer dollars! staggering!
    5) Spending us into oblivion with debt.
    6) Naked body scanners in airports break all U.S. and U.K. child porn laws!
    7) Heading the U.N. Security council, completely illegal!
    8) Attending Copenhagen in an attempt to sign over U.S. sovereignty to the IMF and World Bank.
    9) Copenhagen fails so Obama uses EPA to declare Co2 a toxic pollutant to further carbox tax agenda!!! Yes the stuff you exhale and plants breath is a toxic pollutant, lol!~
    10) Continuing renditions!!(secret arrest and torture for those who don't know.)
    11) Defending and continuing Bush's torture policy.
    12) Says he won't use unconstitutional signing statements on bills then uses them.
    13) Continuing and using for political gain the official 9/11 lie.
