There’s an Anti-Obama Thread gathering a lot of attention this a.m.

[busterbrown]

For a President who was completely undermined by the Republican Opposition from day 1, and may I add many from his own party, I think he’s done a pretty fucking good job..

We give great hope to the Republican Presidential hopefuls( Lunatics) when we trash our POTUS..

1. No it is our responcibility as citizens to

criticize our leaders when we disagree with them.
To follow like sheep is wrong.

[bigwillq]

3. Yup.

[busterbrown]

9. Yup..

Lets clear the path for a complete take over of the Govt. by the Lunatic Right..
We can have Yup parties while we watch..

13. You make no sense. How old are you ?

I was born during the Truman administration. He was criticized as was Kennedey, Johnson, Carter, Clinton and Obama now. The right did not gain any advantage. We are stronger when we speak out not when we are afraid!

[busterbrown]

15. I not quite as old as you but I do know this.

The opposition today are complete bunch of war mongering extremists who are bent on changing the moral and economic fabric of our country as laid out by our Const.. Bet your ass I’m afraid.. Especially afraid for my son who will be completely caught up in their war mongering..

[upaloopa]

16. You should not live in fear. Fear is what drives the

right.
Look at the history of this country. It has never been without problems. If you have access to Netflix on TV go see the American Experience documentary "1964". That was the year I graduated high school. You think now is bad you ain't seen nothing like 1964.

[busterbrown]

18. I was there..Graduated in 1970.

There is absolutely no comparison..There were still some sensible members of the Republican Party back then..I lived that documentary, I marched on D.C. and in the streets. Cops were more reasonable back then..Today the opposition party is filled with just plain fucking ignorant people who deny climate change,are war mongers, have absolute no moral boundaries..For Christ sakes the Republican Party wants to endanger the lives of millions of people who will be kicked out of their healthcare plans..

Yes, the nuts who are yearning to take over our govt. present a far more frightening scenario than what I experienced in the late 60s.

20. But Obama is not running this time. I would rather spend my energy working for a good progressive

Democrat who can win this time. Let the historians sort out Obama's legacy.

[busterbrown]

21. Exactly, Except I’d want to support the Dem. who

has the best chance of winning!

[emulatorloo]

12. Of course, but half-truths, lies, and hatchet jobs are not legit criticism.

[upaloopa]

14. I read that OP and it is all honest criticism.

I agree with most of it and I support Obama

[emulatorloo]

17. Maybe we are thinking of different threads.

IMHO opinion anybody who claims we had a bullet proof Democratic Congressional majority in 2009 wasn't paying attention or is disingenuous.

We got great legislation out of the Pelosi house where we did have a solid majority.

In the Senate the majority was razor thin, and pretty much came down to Joementum, ardent McCain supporter.

Everything the house did was deliberately fucked up by the Senate by Republicans, aided and abetted by a few DINO's.

or this one:

"22. You have disenfranchised young voters. "

What the fuck does that even mean? I had an internship on Obama 2012 campaign and we spend tons of time helping young voters register and get to the polls or provide them with absentee ballots.

Anyway this is all a little too meta so I don't want to get to far into it.

Have a good one!

[elleng]

2. Yes we do have such 'hope,'

in those circumstances.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

5. He's right!

Any Republican hopeful who gets votes in 2016 in the general is going to get more votes than Obama does in that election!

[elleng]

8. aHA!

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

4. He gets 'trashed' when he works with Republicans to pass things they want.

Maybe if he's so upset about being undermined, he shouldn't have spent years trying to help them and work to try and pass a trade bill that even Harry Reid seems to think is an abomination, but Boehner and McConnell love.

[JoePhilly]

6. We're going to see lots of gnashing of teeth from some during the primaries.

And their anger will be pointed in all directions ... except at the republicans.

[busterbrown]

11. Yea, Joe

We’ll kick HRC’s ass as hard as we can in order to make certain that there is a complete takeover of our govt. by lunatics..

[Buzz Clik]

7. DU is ONLY about kicking against The Man.

It doesn't matter who is in charge, they are the enemy.

It's what we do. When you get down to it, it's the only thing we stand for.

[tularetom]

10. I'm sorry it took him six years and a midterm election debacle to realize how much power he had

He's accomplished a lot, but he could have done so much more if he hadn't wasted most of his term trying to do all this bipartisan crap.

Unfortunately, now that he's begun to flex his muscles, he has decided to be a douchebag (to his own supporters) over this "free" trade agreement.

[dmosh42]

19. Obama only has to see who is on his side in this TPP agreement. Maybe some transparency and ...

discussion would clear the air. If I was still working, this would really have me steaming!(TPP)

[youceyec]

22. Obama has to work 50 times as hard and be perfect all the time

The black double standard knows no limit
