Disrespect is Unacceptable
How much more disrespectful can some politicians be for the office of the presidency and how much longer will we all put up with it?
“Obama doesn’t love us,” (that’s why he wants Americans to have health care and wants children who were born here to be citizens); Obama is a Muslim (non-factual), Obama is not a U.S. citizen (non-factual); Obama is not agreeing with us so he is wrong; Obama is not this or that or the other thing; Obama wasn’t brought up the way we were, and the list goes on and on … Although he was voted into office twice by the people he so doesn’t love?
Some of our politicians have so disrespected the office of the presidency that I am embarrassed by their obvious hatred, piousness and relentless lack of diplomacy. I hope my granddaughter looks real close and learns the true history of our country and our forefathers before some politicians try to change that! Our forefathers must be rolling in their graves! Read and watch all the news (not just one channel), make your own decisions. Don’t be lazy. Know your history and then above all else, go out and vote intelligently for politicians who have something to stand for besides only hating Obama.

In the red states, there aren’t very many of those! If we listen to the right wing idiots and their BS, and vote for them, we deserve what we get!
So everybody else is an idiot? Gotcha.

David W, if all they can do is find new and different ways to hate Obama, instead of doing their jobs, they’re idiots.
Even other Republicans have been trying to turn on duly elected do-nothings who want to destroy all forms of responsible governing/legislating in favor of political paralysis, media stunts and short-sighted stupidity in Washington, DC – and many state governments as well. And please don’t say it is both parties at fault. The ball sits still within the majority, and does not move down the field.
One of the areas that has been solely lacking while President Obama has been in office is fact finding. The writer repeats many of those statements that have no facts and are repeated so often others believe them as true. Inevitably, when I am having a discussion about why someone doesn’t like (usually why he or she hates Obama) those statements end it all(i.e. He’s a Muslim). Even the continual blaming of why our middle class is shrinking ends with blaming Obama. I spend so much time investigating and researching so I know why something is happening rather than take someone’s opinion who has an agenda that is basically to just discredit him. I would love to blame Fox News however, why do people just believe it? If we are to grow as a nation, and really be a model for the world as we once were, we must get back to this skill or we will be lead around by any and all who are really good at preaching propaganda. This is definitely happening in Arizona which is evidenced by our current governor being elected.
