How Could Anyone Criticize the President During a Time of War?

Republicans are just anti-American.

No two ways about it.

2. We are a nation at war. And we need to stand with our commander in chief.
Not second guess him. That gives aid and comfort to the enemy.

4. No, no. It turns out the rule was:
Don't criticize your REPUBLICAN president in times of war.

8. Yes we did and got slammed for it.
But it all looks different now to the Republicans.

I was disgusted by Huckabee when he went over to Israel and bad-mouthed Obama's policy a few months ago.

7. Well, they sure did it to Bush.
Just sayin'. The conservatives lost the elections, but nobody rolled up their flags and left the battlefield. The Left mowed down the Republicans front ranks, which, after eight years of Bush was pretty easy to do. However, they're still full of fight.

Many people here oppose the wars, openly, and have been very critical of Obama's handling of all issues. I don't think the right wing is going to be anymore pleased with him than the people here.

9. What are you talking about - I love Obama
He is just getting warmed up. He will be our greatest president perhaps.

10. Read the forums
There has been more than a little ranting about health care and the continuation of the wars.

I hope we go places too. We need to get things turned around. It appears to me that our biggest obstacles are economic, and they are huge. We can't afford to pay our bills.
