Thanks for the ping. I can’t say I hate Obama; that personalizes it. I don’t like him, his arrogance, his elitism, etc. but that does not translate into hate for me. And saying you hate the president comes very close to the edge where those that hate plan to take personal, violent action which in their own mind will resolve that hate. And the country does not need that; we must at all costs avoid making our first (half) black president a martyr.

However, I do hate his administration and what they are doing to the country with increased government control and bureaucracy in all areas; loss of freedom to chose, increased taxes and a debt that is rapidly making us a third-world bankrupt economy.

We need a leader like Reagan that will inspire us, lift us up, make us proud again, have us believe in ourselves again. And assist us by rolling back government programs and taxes. It will take time, but if we don’t do it, we will not survive as a nation.

Spot on. As someone has observed, if your enemy is destroying himself, just let him.

(I have naughty thoughts of kicking him after he's down, though.)
