Dear President Obama, we are NOT the enemy
Republicans cherish their base. Why do you hate us?


WE GOT YOU ELECTED. If you decide we aren't worthy, we may turn our backs come 2012. And just like the Republicans who work for DECADES to bring about real change, so can we.


I can wait till 2016.

1. You seem to see Obama as the enemy, and not the GOP.
Obama hates you?

Oh ... if we have a GOP President in 2012 ... lots of folks won't survive the wait.

4. Enemies?
Voting the lesser of two evils has placed me in the position of not having decent representation. My needs are not being met. What good has doing this done for me and mine?

Clearly the country is not going in the direction I want it to go, it has steadily gone further and further to the right. It's not I have left the party. The party has left me, avoids me, shits all over me...

5. There are numerous examples that strongly indicate
the WH is at best dismissive and at worst outright hostile to progressive interests. Obama may not *hate* us but he has no love for progressive causes and goals, and some of his aides have been rather forceful in their hostility towards same. There is no question we are viewed by this WH and by our DC Dem leaders in general as an annoying nuisance that should just STFU already and go away.

9. When you turn your back and let the GOP in, see who CAN'T wait until 2016.
People around here lose sight of who REALLY wants to destroy them.

And the GOP WILL finish the job.

Maybe YOU have 4 years to sit back and let them do their thing, but I'll bet those who are hanging on by their fingernails can't withstand what the party who wants to abolish government has in store.
