Do you have anything to say besides toeing the partisan line and regurgitating talking points?
The reason why people on the right don't like Obama is because we don't know anything about him. He kept it all secret and still is. The people on
the right knew what kind of person he was, but we all got bashed saying this and that isn't true and all that, and wow imagine that its all
happening.
I could easily just say the people that agree with Obama agree with him because he is a progressive democrat. That would be the true description of
him, he is a progressive, aka Socialist or some kind of wired mix of a socialist and a corporatist. He is most definitely not a liberal.
The fact is he is destroying this country, and his platform of "change" is the same road we have been heading down. The left only agrees with it
because it is "their guy" doing it.

I have to agree with your straight forward description on the rights view of Obama.
Many folks on the left feel its a personal thing but it is the love of our country that fuels our passion. We all want a stand up guy as President
who will tell us the truth, stick by his promises, and shows compassion towards all Americans. That's what many don't understand. An empty suit
won't do, for the reasons mentioned in this thread.
And Grover, if you can't look behind the facade to see the real truths about our political parties and stop with the
"toeing the partisan line
and regurgitating talking points", you'll be the first person I will use the
"Ignore" button on as you have not had anything useful to
add on any on-going conversations in quite a while, IMHO. The party line all the way, ad nauseum...........................
In truth, politics in this country is a lot like having a choice in the manner of your death. In this game, it's either death by strangulation, or
death by hanging. The results are the same, one just takes a little longer.
You've got to get past the divide and conquer routine that is destroying this country and join the Americans that know we are being hosed by
BOTH of the two parties and are trying to do something about it.
If you're not going to be part of the solution, hush up and step to the side.
I for one, am tired of hearing it.
