Let's just say this: I have been around long enough to see many Presidents and there is a big difference in attitude about them. Sure, there will always be those who either do not approve of the present administration or really dislike the President regardless. But not in the same way as what we have now. We still have family and many friend in Ca, I will add, some are Democrats, mostly Republicans, even they are discusted and embarrassed.

I'm disappointed, but not disgusted. No, what the Bush administration did to America was patently disgusting and unamerican. The bulk of what we are seeing now is a direct result of his administration's mishandling, and people like you are
1) ignoring this (though kudos to you for actually admitting that he wasn't a very good president here and there, in this posts and others)
2) expecting 8 years of mishandling to be undone in the two years he's been in office now irregardless of other issues that are coming up as time goes on (such as BP), and having written him off as a total failure as soon as he won, rather than hoping for the best.
I don't think that he can undo it in one term, and I don't really think that he's the right man for the job, though he is a massively better choice than McCain/Palin would have been.
Furthermore, I don't think you have any real idea of the sort of outrage that half this nation had over Bush.
I don't mean that Barack is America's enemy in the sense that people don't like him.
Barack is our enemy by the facts of his policies and actions/inactions. He is damaging the United States and we should consider impeachment before it's too late.
The "negative attitude" Obama has towards the US is not a creation of the RW. He is ruining this country.
That is your opinion. Mine is that he is cleaning up the mess that dubya let and he seems to being doing every thing that he said he was going to do to get elected unlike dubya. As you all know it is going to take years to clean up 8 years of the worse president to date.
Nearly everything Barack has done is bad for this country. It's as if he and his administration really do want to destroy the United States.
Excessive spending, rising tax rates, ramming legislation down the people's throats, not living up to their obligation to secure the border, allowing Black Panther voter intimidation, apologizing to Muslims and now making a recess appointment of Donald Berwick to head up Medicare and Medicaid.
What next?
In this country today, the problem IS Obama.
I can't see how Democrats can think that Obama's policies are good for us.
If what we are seeing in America is what Progressives envision as progress, then we're all in big trouble. To adhere to this kind of fundamental change is just stupid.
Throw the bums out in November. And vote out Barack in 2012. He is a bad President. We need a President who is on the side of Americans.

do you think everyone who disagrees with you is a lover or even listens to Beck and Limbaugh?
The right wing and people like Congressman Barton have been more critical of Obama than BP. Its going to be an interesting mid-term election especially since BP was instrumental in getting the release of the terrorist that was part of the Pan Am 103 murders in return for oil rights in Libya.
Drill Baby Drill, Shakedown; the republicans just keep creating democratic election slogans.
