Obama himself remains popular, largely because of his charisma and because most people agree he inherited the problem. With staggering job losses and an unemployment rate now at 8.1%, the highest in 25 years, many Americans are hopeful our new President can right the ship and punish those responsible.

As long as O can keep the previous administration alive as the enemy, he'll have a little wiggle room. Which partially explains why one tactic is to keep demonizing Repubs

Eventually someone will figure out that 6 years of Repub control in Congress moved the economy up, while 2 years of Democrat control ushered in the crisis.

Another aspect of O's malaise is he goes with the standard Democrat approach -- you don't have to actually produce any benefit, just ride by, wave, toss some bread out, and offer up something for the masses to watch getting torn apart.

CommieBama is just another black guy pissed off about reparations and slavery - even though with a white mother and a kenyan father, he actually had no dog in that fight at all.

This is not "payback the rich", this is "payback the white", pure and simple. Obama has been brainwashed into the black victim mentality and that is what he is all about. If you stop listening to his words today, but summarize those words tomorrow, you'll see they're not much different from Jesse Jackson, Jerimiah Wright, or Lenin.



The longsuffering Mr. Obama is now striking out at all of his perceived enemies - those who would stand in his way of socialism/communism.

But CommieBama has a lot to prove about himself - the acornnuts of America thinks his color qualifies him to be president - but so far all we've seen from him is race based bitterness and peter panic syndrome.

He's like a caveman trying to fly a 747...in way over his head.

The presstitutes are suddenly looking at their 401Ks like the rest of us. Perhaps they don’t like it either.

(He hasn’t called anyone an “evildoer” or denounced an “axis of evil.” But make no mistake: President Obama is putting together an enemies list. )

Obama has had an enemy list for many years. As a dedicated Socialist that list contains Americans, Christians, Military People,Sucessful people.
Just look at his actions in office so far and you can see the attacks on all in what he has said and what he has done.

Obama is the ultimate liberal. He sees all non-Americans as our superiors, and grovels at their feet—oh, unless you’re British, since they have all these “oldtime” associations.

Much more important, though, is the self-hatred, the anger over every single wrong in our past. Fly planes into WTC? Well, we can’t condone that BUT they have their reasons, you know, big oil, supporting Israel, etc. Shoot at our planes every single day for years? Well, you know, we were asking for it by flying them, even if the UN said it’s ok and you haven’t lived up to a ceasefire agreement.

This is what is going on in a liberal’s mind each time anything positive is said about America: “Yeah, great country—we stole it from the Indians and then committed genocide on them, oh, and let’s not forget slavery.”

More hip and with-it libs also think about abortion being “under fire” and gay marriage.

Obama didn’t get to the WH in order to assert US power oveseas. He doesn’t really care about how we look to other countries except as a way of criticizing Bush. No, what he cares about is “getting even” with The Rich, who represent the eeeevil that is at the core of this country, as he sees it. That’s what all this “have a discsussion about race” crap is all about—he and the other libs see racism, slavery, etc. as a cancer that is growing in the soul of this country that NOTHING can eradicate UNLESS we, the privilidged, are put through PAIN. We must suffer as Europe, Russia and Poland, for example, did during WW2, as Japan suffered at our hands, as the poor of the world do every day. Only by massive, sustained suffering will we be purified and can take our seat at the table with the rest of the world.

Our sin is that we’ve built and lived in a prosperous country. Now Obama’s here to make us pay the bill.

Well Frank. You have this guy pegged.

You may catch hell from some White Guilters for putting this thing in perspective, but you are right.

Obama is just another black guy living in public housing, spending money he doesn’t have and blaming all his troubles on “The Man”.

Obama is Clinton redux.

The Clintons attacked their enemies ruthlessly, and their enemies were almost always "domestic" (anyone who dared challenge them or call them on their hypocrisies).

Meanwhile, terrorists from abroad went scot-free so they could plan for bigger atrocities.

Strangely, though, those on it (Obama's "enemies" list) are not terrorists or foreign dictators.

How long before we see this again on American soil:

With Obama, I predict it will be within the year.

sometimes he suggests the problem is criminal, as when he defended his plan for an expanded government push into health insurance as necessary "to keep the private sector honest."

I've been cheated and lied to on at least a couple of occasions by health insurers, with no recourse. I have no doubt that there is criminal behavior in the health insurance companies - I've been the victim of it.

Having said that, it would be far worse under the government.

And continuing to undermine and demoralize our military.

He stated to the NYSlimes that NO we are not winning in Afghanistan.

Guess the progress we’ve made due to our heroic troops didn’t really occur.

Much as bubba’s cabal attacked Ken Star mercilessly, the same ugly creatures are now demonizing Rush Limbaugh.

The President is a Marxist. Class Warfare is basic to the creed. He must promote it and act and speak as if it were a fact.
