I am sick of seeing all the Obama haters creating threads which purely go out of their way to demonise Obama, for things he clearly didn't do. Furthermore, these threads are created with the sole intent to confuse the readers and/or make them believe things that are not true. This is corroborated by the fact that the posters tend to overlook critical parts of the story altogether, instead, picking apart and creating a situation that fits them best. Here are some recent threads as examples. Both have been proven false, yet are promoted as the truth:

It's time to stop with this unsubstantiated bull crap which boards on the edge of disinformation!

You chose two unfortunate examples.
The first is a thread entitled: "Oops! Obama Says He Wants Wind Turbines 'Manufactured Here in China'" As the report states:So, Obama did say what the headline indicates. It's completely true and substantiated. We may wonder what Obama meant, but he did say those words.
"I want to build on the progress we've made. Doubling clean energy. I want fuel efficient cars and long-lasting batteries and wind turbines manufactured here in China! I don't want them manufactured in China, I want them manufactured here in the United States!"
Yes, however, members of the thread are demonising Obama, simply because he slipped up. He just got his lines mixed up.
Your second example is too vague to be properly considered an example of anything. It reports the Rolling Stone interview and accurately reports what Obama said. Again, there is discussion in the thread as to what he meant, but no question that he used b---------r.
Yes, it accurately reported what Obama said, but the poster of the thread decided to run with the lie that Obama had said that in response to a question from a young child, when in fact he did not. The conversation had changed by the time Obama made that comment...nothing to do with the child. He was demonising Obama for something he didn't do...something common for a deluded Romney supporter.
Just because something doesn't make Obama look good doesn't make it unsubstantiated or hateful.
There are many other threads here which hate on Obama utilising unsubstantiated claims.

Obama is a good man I'm just amazed how people think He has been a good president when His record shows He doe snot have nearly enough epxerience.I don't do the crazed whacky stuff that Obama is gonna kill is all nonsense.I still do not trust Obama though.
The more I read and the more He talks the more untrustworthy He becomes to me.edit on 27-10-2012 by Jobeycool because: (no reason given)

I am no Obama and and personally abhor many of his policies. But I agree there are a lot of idiots on here spewing a bunch of vitriol about Obama. They love the Commie! Socialists! Evil Muslim! birther rhetoric and are nothing but a bunch of trailer trash losers who get a hard on watching that cesspool known as Fox News.
