I have always vowed to show at least the same level of respect for President Obama, as the left did for President Bush.
More than I’m currently exhibiting? That shouldn’t be hard.
FUBO!!!
Great line.
Actually he just wishes he could thin the herd to suit himself.
bttt
Where in the koran does it say they must respect infidels?
Fine, I’ll double my respect for him. Zero times two is still zero.
Thanks for posting, Kaslin. Ken's my hero!
I have a hard time respecting a liar with no integrity, but that’s just me...
"The selective memory of liberals never ceases to amaze me. In the midst of a Sound Off whine, the commentator labeled "No Democrats?" bleated, "Why are people so mean and hateful of this future president? I don't understand this. Give the guy a chance."
Give Obama a chance? Let's take a walk down memory lane. Remember the screams that Bush stole the 2000 election? That he was poisoning children by putting arsenic in the water? That he was killing millions by not funding stem-cell research?
Remember the bumper stickers? "He's not MY president!" "Somewhere in Texas a village is missing its idiot." "Re-Defeat Bush" and, of course, the ubiquitous "1-20-09."
Let's remember the supposed "loyal opposition" — Harry Reid on the floor of the Senate screaming that the war in Iraq was "lost," Jack Murtha slandering an innocent platoon of Marines as cold-blooded murderers and Washington Congressman Jim McDermott telling CNN "I trust Saddam Hussein more than I trust George Bush."
Have you forgotten Nancy Pelosi traveling to Syria to meet with Bashir Assad, or Jimmy Carter groveling to Hugo Chavez, both insisting they had as much right to conduct foreign policy as the elected president of the United States?
Or let's just talk plain slander — "BusHitler," "Bush Lied, People Died," "Bush is a cocaine freak." "Bush is a dry drunk." "Bush is a fascist." "Bush knew Sept. 11 was going to happen." Just for fun, why not Google "chimp" or "chimpy Bush."
You'll find thousands of Web sites comparing George Bush to a monkey, or slamming him as a subliterate moron who can't even tie his own shoes.
For the last eight years, the Democrats have blackmailed this country. "Put us in office," they made it clear, "or we will ruin you. We will lie. We will give aid and comfort to the enemy. We will leak top-secret intelligence to the New York Times. We will use organizations like Code Pink and CAIR to funnel money and weapons to the Iraqi resistance. We will slime George Bush at every turn and do our best to destroy his administration." But now that B. Hussein Obama has been elected, people like "No Democrats?" think we should just shrug our shoulders and fall in line?
Sorry, no. Your filthy party has poisoned the political well, and it's long past time you had a good stiff dose poured down your throats. "Dissent is the highest form of patriotism!" you screamed incessantly, and so I plan to dissent.
Obama is not my president. I do not wish him well. I will laugh at his mistakes and cheer his stumbles. I want the GOP to block, hinder and slam him at every turn. I want him driven from office four years from now a broken man with his administration in ruins.
In short, I want Obama given the same respect and deference that Democrats have given George Bush since November of 2000.
CHRISTOPHER DIGRAZIA Obama can expect same treatment Bush received
President? What President? We've had a foreign usurper occupying the office since Jan 20, 2009.
He deserves NO RESPECT, only jail time.
1/350 millionth or so (actually, probably more along the lines of 1/330 millionth or so if you exclude the illegals) of Obama’s time is spent as my employee. He’s not my king. He’s done nothing to earn my respect.
I’m trying very hard to respect President Obama. As the elected leader of this nation, he is due that. If I met him, I’d treat him respectfully, to include respectfully disagreeing with him.
“Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities,” wrote the apostle Paul. “For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God” (Romans 13:1)
“Therefore submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake, whether to the king as supreme, or to governors ...” (1 Peter 2:13-14)
Respect has to be earned. Oh, I’d respect a rattlesnake, at least until I could dispense with it.
I respect him as much as he respects the American people.
Shove it, Obama.
“Newsweek’s Evan Thomas said he hovered over the nations, like ‘a sort of god.’”
Ugh, that line makes me want to hover over my toilet and give an “offering” to Obama on the only altar he is worthy of.
Most of us saw through the con-artist with a teleprompter. Kids were conned and the handout crowd saw another golden egg for which they didn’t have to work. During the initial campaign, I remember conversations talking about what a joke this organizer of community illiterates was to think he could be elected. Then homowood and the old media began pushing the hard sell to the community illiterates and he was supposedly voted in with an honest election. Never once, did I trust or think this clown had a clue—all one had to do was view his record.
I'll give respect to the President. If and when we get a REAL one. Usurpators don't get no respect.
