It would take 6 more years to equal what Bush got, so lets hope Bush keeps his record.

You mean that you didn't see all of the Bush effigies, the political cartoons against Bush and all of the blogs, editorials and commentators that were bashing bushing Bush 7/24? Oh they were only spreading the truth, not bashing, I get it. sheeeesh. Also whenever any president does something that you disagree with it is fair to criticize. If I agree then your criticism is unfair. Get it?

Bush vetoed each thing. The Democrats did no longer have sufficient votes to override his veto. sufficient suggested. Obama has all started the arrangements to charm to down troops in Iraq. He stored the protection Sec. in an attempt to be bipartisan, however the Republicans did no longer reciprocate. He has crammed his cabinet swifter THAN BUSH did. Sorry, all your criticisms are fake.

Yeah,

but I think the fact that Obama haters appear to hate whatever imaginary bugaboo they're convinced without a shred of actual evidence, that Obama is guilty of setting up the very sort of intrusive government tentacles that were initially devised and set in place under the false flag attack whereby the government set-up by Bush and his cronies has purred along just fine with Bush-poser (Obama) at the helm of this corporate-centric, (fascist) government.



If Obama haters wanted to be taken seriously, perhaps they might do well to consider that all the things that Bush and his henchmen/women did while in power, were essentially given a pass during his dubious election-tampering "victories" during his time in office.



The disconnect that continues to play itself out in the corporate friendly right-wing dominant media mess, is the fact that Obama has allowed Bush policies to fester unaltered, unchanged, and few if any have been rescinded or eliminated.



If Obama haters could criticize regurgitated Bush policies adopted or barely touched by Obama, then they would have a legitimate gripe and I'd be in total agreement with them, but alas, Obama haters choose false narratives as their main argument against Obama.



It's really simple, choose anything Obama has screwed up on that is supported by facts or testable evidence, then I'd be forced to agree with you, but straw-man arguments only tend to lure the tin-foil hat crowd out into the open away from the safety of their end of the world Beck inspired, doomsday bunkers.



The only thing you attract when the right insists on using crazy conspiracy theories, is they attract crazy people, tea-baggers without a clue, I rest my case.

No. I engaged in regular Bush bashing myself but I was certainly not prepared for the Obama presidency. I don't bash him for the sake of bashing. I really disagree with the Democrat's agenda. I think they have made a mess we may never get out of in a normal way. Bush made a some very bad mistakes. Obama has changed this country. I see Obama as being much worse with an agenda that most Americans do not agree with.

I don't think I'm unfair. There were times when I wanted to choke Bush (amnesty for example) but it just so happens that Obama has done a LOT more worth 'bashing'.

We have something in our system of government called the separation of powers, which gives rise to a system of checks and balances that keeps one branch of government from getting too powerful. It balances everything out. Since day one of Obama's Presidency, he has thrown tantrums before Congress and called them "irresponsible" for not just blindly passing his stuff without hardly having time to read it first, and he has thrown tantrums every time the Supreme Court chooses to uphold the Constitution regardless of his personal feelings on a given issue.



You can disagree with Bush all you want, and you can call for his arrest for war crimes if you want to. The 1st Amendment says you can. Agree or disagree with Bush, at least he put the country ahead of his own agenda most of the time and at least his decisions were driven by what he thought was right for the country, whether he was correct or incorrect. Obama stands there with a sh!t-eating grin on his face, his body between his arms, while the lowlife President of Mexico trashes one of our 50 states before our own Congress. He doesn't say a damn thing to defend our own people. In fact, he sues our own people for trying to physically protect themselves from a literal invasion. That proves beyond any doubt whatsoever that President Obama really does not care about his own country or his own people. If he did, he'd prove it.



We disagree over how money should be spent, we disagree over who should legally be in the country and we disagree over which wars should be fought when or where. There is no way to disagree over the law of the land that is written in stone and that has worked for 221, going on 222 years. Ideology can be disagreed upon, but the above is what makes Obama a bad President. You don't get to ignore governmental systems and laws just because you're the President. Period.

Not even close. Obama is a complete failure. October 2nd came and went and Libs still didn't learn anything. November 2012 is coming and we'll be taking out the rest of the trash.

No. There is nothing more vile and nasty as a liberal. Well, maybe satan, but libs are a close second. Their Bush bashing was the worst history has ever seen. There are web sites showing all the bashing they did of Bush. Just google it.

I've noticed that most conservatives are completely unable to argue issues so they have to resort to name calling.

Only on Fox and Y!A. Other forums are more balanced.
