He is destroying the constitution he swore to uphold.
He is taking away personal liberties.
He is attacking religion.
He spends money like Paris Hilton on a bender.

He said he would have, by now, put forward a plant to reform Medicare and Social Security because he pointed out they are on the road to bankruptcy. He hasn't even made a proposal on either one.
He said in his first year he'd put out an immigration plan that would deal with our immigration challenge.... Didn't even file it !
He said that he'd cut the deficit in half! He hasn't done that either. In fact, he doubled it.
He said that by now, middle-income families would have a reduction in their health insurance premiums by $2500 a year. It's gone up by $2 500 a year. And if O Care is implemented fully it'll be another $2500.
The middle class is getting crushed under the policies of a President who has not understood what it takes to get the economy working again. The number of people who are still looking for work is still 23 million Americans.
How about food stamps? When he took office, 32 million people were on food stamps. Today, 47 million !!!!!!
There are more people in poverty, one out of six people in poverty.
I don't hate the President...... Just don't agree !!!
With Barry, there is no 'inspiration' to achieve, no benefits for success. In fact, success is demonized and discuraged. (tax the millionaires and billionaires... defined as anyone earning over $250k/yr... which is a crock)
It's not so much that Obama is "hated", its just that Obam is not inspiring... He doesn't motivate people to "be all that they can be" to steal a phrase.
Obama only has one solution for problems and that is a centralized government where "fairness" means equality of outcome instead of equality of opportunity. I think that's the key reason for the disdain towards this guy that is now within 7 months of his four year election cycle.
With over $6 Trillion more debt, are you...no will your children be better off than you, because of the Obama Administration from 2009 through 2012?
For most, the answer is a resounding NO!
Such a racist mindset and statement really isn't worthy of my time or response, so I will go on to your more (slightly more) rational comments.
== == ==
SayWhat: "You claim such concern about our children’s' financial future because of the trillions of debt"
Yes I do. Ignoring the problem merely enslaves our children to be bound to the greed of the previous generation's demand of something for nothing. I.E. the 47% that Romney spoke of in that infamous speech he made last March that he accurately said were the people that won't be voting for him anyway, so has a candidate, his job is to focus on the sector of voters that are still undecided. As you obviously don't care about loading your children up with debt, but only educating them just enough to get a job that will PAY that debt... you obviously have bought into the Plantation mindset where the slaves are well trained so as to be able to make the plantation as...

Yet you don't mind piling on more and more debt while destroying the purchasing power of the dollar you earned that is already in your pocket. Example of that is the $1.80/gallon for gas when Barry was sworn in as POTUS compared to the $3.80/gallon it costs now. Or that ounce of gold that cost $880/oz in Jan'09 versus the $1700 /oz today. Or that institutional size can of tuna that I've been buying for our church 'feed the homeless' project we have every weekend. I've been providing my famous tuna casserole each week for years... and that super large can of tuna at Walmart used to cost $7.95 in 2008 but costs $12.39 last week. That's erosion of purchasing power I'm talkin' about. Do you think it will be any better in 2016? Or 2020? Or when your children are buying tuna, gas or can no longer afford to invest in gold? Barry said he would only raise taxes those earning above $250k... but instead, he has eroded the purchasing power of EVERYONE, including those in the lowest income levels! Inflating the number of dollars in circulation is still eroding the value of that currency and either way you slice it, it’s still a tax!

SayWhat: "yet you support those who oppose improvement of education that would better enable them to feel the jobs that would best bring down the deficit"
Can you give me an example of either the GOP or the Libertarian Party (both of whom are those that "you support") of opposing "improvement of education"???
I do oppose the unconstitutional involvement of the federal government in state functions, i.e. providing education to our children. I would much rather have 50 different states (or 57 states, for Obama supports) trying their own individual policies of improvement for education than to have all 50 trying to adhere to a 'one size fits all' federal mandate that provides 7% of the educational funding while requiring 100% of the regulatory control and underfunded mandates imposed on those states.
Besides, I'm a supporter of public FUNDING of education and not a supporter of public VENDING of education. Vouchers work quite well for providing food, housing, college education and dozens of subsidy endeavors, so why can't we simplify our government's involvement and just provide each parent with a voucher or tax credit up to the amount that society is willing to fund, for each of that parent's K-12 age children?
Why not simply allow each state's commerce department assist their existing "public" school teachers and administrators in opening their own private schools, assisting them with SBA loans and assisting them with the purchase of existing franchises like Sylvan, Montessori or 'The Learning Center' or the dozens of other acclaimed educational training venues that are available? Why have gov't RUNNING schools when they can simply be FUNDING schools via vouchers and tax credits?
Why is it that the typically PRO-CHOICE Liberal Progressives are so REGRESSIVE when it comes to being Pro-Choice in where parents can choose their child to school?
Again, please give me an example of either the GOP or the Libertarian Party of opposing
"Improvement of education"???

SayWhat: "Obama didn’t borrow all that money to fight those unfunded wars that took more than 100 times the lives that were lost at the twin towers"
Yes, you are right. Less than one trillion went to pay for the war that Barry escalated in Afghanistan. The remaining FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS of debt was spent on things like non-existing "shovel ready" jobs that Barry later said were not 'shovel ready'... Or funding his trillion dollar 'stimulus' package where Gary Johnson noted:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?... Or paying for entitlements like the Social Security deficit where 44 million current beneficiaries are receiving benefits while 85 million baby boomers are just now reaching the age to claim benefits, thereby adding 200% more RIDERS in the wagon than there were, while fewer and fewer workers are PULLING the wagon. Barry's solution is to PRINT MORE MONEY.
== == ==
SayWhat: "you expected Obama to undue in 4 years that which took more than 8 years to evolve???
Yes, I expected Obama to do what HE SAID he would do! I.E. cut the deficit in half in four years (his 2008 campaign platform), Cut unemployment to less than 5% (it was just over 7% when he was sworn in, [the lowest rate of unemployment during his entire administration]), Not have any lobbyists in his administration (that promise was broken in February 2009, <30 days after becoming POTUS). Close Gitmo within a year. (It’s still in operation). I could go on, but I need to comment on your point "you expected Obama to undue in 4 years that which took more than 8 years to evolve???"
Please note that Reagan 'inherited' far worse economy (16% interest rates, massive inflation, 10.7% unemployment, etc, etc from Jimmy Carter. Yet by the end of Reagan's first 4 years, inflation was down to less than 4%, unemployment was less than 5% and the economy and GDP was growing at over 6%...
That just proves that it can be done!
But not with the policies of Obama that are "geared toward managing the decay of our nation. Managing declining resources. Managing diminishing manufacturing capacity. Managing a lower standard of living where he would put the coal & oil industries out of business and "electricity would cost substantially more"....which is exactly what I said back in April, which is what prompted you to reply to me 6 hours ago. Compare that to Jimmy Carter and you would find numerous similarities in Obama's "managing the decay" to Carter's administration of lower standards, and failure using both administrations’ dismal projections.
YES! I did expect Obama to DO WHAT HE PROMISED TO DO.

SayWhat: "thats insane!!!."
You are quite right... That IS the definition of insanity. Voting for the same person, who promises the same policies, wanting to do the same thing over and over, while telling us to expect a DIFFERENT RESULT... is quite insane!!!
That's why I'm voting for change this time so as to NOT do the same thing over and over while trying to get me to believe it will result in a different result.
You are quite right... That IS the definition of insanity.
OBAMA inspires my whole family, neighbors, workers and freinds. If Romney inspires you thats good! Dont assume Obama isnt inspiring just because he doesnt inspire you. Its that general attitude and perception that cause so much angst between voters. Hating on one another...........something I find that republicans do very, very well- they just call it something else. As far as swing voters, some swing voters need some type of fodder to help make thier decision.......unfortunatly some need the hate spin. Thank God some swing voters really are concerned about the whole picture. Like how did this get like this in the first place - bet you wont talk about that, and if you do..PLEASE! do your research, get the facts....right.
Can you point to anything I said regarding Romney? Why do you assume that I'm a Romney supporter?
I'm voting for Gary Johnson, the LP candidate for president. Johnson is the ONLY candidate that has stated he would balance the budget while both Romney & Obama have promised to keep loading more and more debt upon our children. When George Bush was elected in 2000, an ounce of gold could be bought for $220 and a gallon of gas was $1.51. When minimum wage was $1.00 an hour's worth of work would buy just over two gallons of gas, today's minimum wage of $7.25 STILL BUYS just over two gallons of gas. So how is what either the Dems or GOP helping?
I always cringe when I see/hear of the "Mess that the Bush Admin left"... Although Bush certainly is not without fault, he did have the help of a congress that enjoyed the benefits of the lobbyists from Wall street calling the shots.
@Dreamy...There, fixed it for ya!!! :-)
Speaking of that... did you know that all kittens when born, are DEMOCRATS?
Yup... they are Democrats when they are born, but usualy after 7 to 10 days, they open their eyes!
:-)
Sorry, I couldn't resist! AV
I have no problem feeding the truly needy, children and elderly but I do have a problem feeding those that I see abusing the system because they can and they feel they are owed something for nothing.
pretty sure that fox has done more to divide the country. he created more than 200,000 jobs just this year and any problem is a "real problem" or else it wouldn't be a problem. The part about house foreclosures and related is actually due to the companies that the "unnecessary and crippling" regulations(bill o'rilly) were ment to Regulate to keep from occurring which were loosened by conservatives. As for that last part you are right but its not quantity of individuals paying taxes but saturation of taxes in the significantly more dense areas of wealth.if you stop looking for your keys you can never find them, same applies.the lower income americans are the ones that are actually putting money back into the system(not just the government but also general economy because increased profit also means that there is less money for the base, which broke down due to lack of support from the "job growers", which holds up the economy and has only been barely saved by those in the lower realms having to liquidate their assets to the base.) and because they have little or no profit they are not going to see any...<

Really? Can you provide citation for your claim? I thought entitlements (Social Security, Medicare, Welfare, housing, etc, etc were the largest part of the budget, but I may be wrong. Please provide support for your statement. Thanks! AV
