You are not a patriot if you don't want Obama to succeed.

.....This is no ordinary time in the history of our democracy, and none of us can afford to behave like ordinary people. Every patriot must wish for the new president to succeed.....

If Obama wishes to expand our 2A rights, individual liberties, freer markets, and increase our national security, then I'm all for him succeeding. Otherwise, I wish him confusion and failure.

My wish for success is first and foremost with this great Republic. If that also means success for Obama, so be it. If it means utter failure for Obama, so be it.

I can’t say I disagree in principle...why would you want the President to fail?

That is a very easy question to answer.

Barack Obama defines success as full-blown Marxism. He defines success as taking from those who produce and giving that property to those who do not.

He defines success as spending trillions of dollars on wasteful government - borrowed money our grandchildren and their grandchildren can never repay.

He defines success as no unborn baby going unslaughtered even in late term or under the barbaric partial birth abortion.

He defines success as forcing open homosexuality on the military and the rest of us.

He defines success as bankrupting coal companies and forcing electrical rates to skyrocket.

He wants American parents not to have freedom of choice as to where they may send their children to school.

He defines success as forcing workers to join unions without giving those workers a secret ballot.

Anyone with any conscience would NEVER want Barack Obama to bring such misery, hardship and death (especially to the unborn) and SUCCEED in that effort.

You may want to appear noble on this dark day for the Republic but you are wishing success to the most destructive president to ever come down the road.

I certainly do not want this dirtbag to succeed...all of his policys that I am aware of stink...starting with his penchant for wantng PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION please consider those three words for a minute....Partial (as in pull apart the parts of a little baby, ie arms and legs, head if possible)....birth....( as in the procedure that is used on babies ready to be born, babies who have grown many months in mommy and are capable of surviving on their own)....abortion ( as in the absolute killing of a baby growing in the womb).

IMO-Barack HUSSEIN Obama is a sleezy man who has hung with the Rev Wrights and Bill Ayers of this world and has demonstrated, in doing so and in exposing his KIDS to it, an immense lack of good judgement. (Not to mention the klintonista team he has gathered, the slugs we all know and distrust from experience, for his advisors and team.

Obama is a slug.

OBAMA VOTED NOT ONCE,,,,,,,,,, BUT TWICE FOR THIS PROCEDURE TO BE MADE LEGAL WHEN HE WAS A STATE SENATOR IN ILLINOIS. AGAIN, HE IS A SLUG.

This is the greatest country on earth, but God help us if Barrack succeeds. He has called for doing away with existing regulations that slow down abortions, he has called for socialism,he has called for more taxes, more government to regulate society, an interior armed force (KGB) acceptance of gays in the military, gay marriage, Supreme Court Justices in the mold of “Ginsberg and Breher....This be one patriot who hopes he fails at doing what he wants to do!!!

I want these morons to define “succeed” because free, rampant abortion is not “success” to me. Paying higher taxes and dragging our country down with MORE government jobs is not “success” to me.

Idiots. For 8 years I have heard “Don’t question MY patriotism” and now they get all PATRIOTIC and demand YOU support them.

Idiots.

With regards to Iraq/Afghanistan/War on Terror, I hope he succeeds in bringing these to a victorious conclusion!

On the home front, I hope he fails miserably in converting America to his vision of a socialist utopia.

You can be a patriot and hope we lose the war in Iraq, but you can't be a patriot and hope Dear Leader falls on his face.

Hmmm.

“The Editiorial Board of DMN have decided that every patriot must wish for Obama to succeed”

Great. Will they now acknowledge that the RAT Party is not ony unpatriotic but TREASONOUS for doing everything in their power to MAKE Bush a failure?

When are the terms ‘racism’ and ‘African-American’ going to be dropped from the English language.

THAT is the true definition of "patriotism"!

Liberals, as usual, are using their own definitions of words again.

I did not vote for Obama because I believe his policies will be bad for the country: economically, socially, and with regard to national security. If he is for governing this country from the far left, I want him to fail.

Ah, but it depends on the meaning of "succeed." Do we want America to succeed? You betcha. If that means Obama gets the credit, is that a problem? No, absolutely not! Does it mean if Obama is headed off in the wrong direction and, if left to his own devices America would stumble, should we remain quite? Hell, no.

IOW - IN ORDER FOR OBAMA TO SUCCEED, HE NEEDS SUPPORT WHEN WARRANTED AND OPPOSITION WHEN NECESSARY. THAT ESPECIALLY APPLIES TO THE PRESS AND IT IS THE REASON THEY HAVE 1ST AMENDMENT PROTECTION.

Imagine if they’d taken this stance on not emboldening the North Vietnamese Communists or AlQaida in Iraq.
