You know, I think Obama just may be worn down by almost four years of constant, deep, unmitigated hatred which has been directed at him by the far right in this country. I've never seen any politician so openly and violently hated and that hatred expressed over and over and over again by public figures like Limbaugh and all the other talk radio sellers of hate and violence. Maybe you guys won. Maybe you just beat him bloody with all your daily rants and thoughts of hatred. Maybe you won.

As I said somewhere else, be careful what you wish for. You may get a real robot for President, one who represents the 1% and all you guys who are not part of that socio-economic demographic may be in for a very, very big surprise.

You don't have the guts to be honest about that I'm sure.

I'm definitely calling that poster on being a racist based ON HIS WRITTEN STATEMENT.

I'm sorry, were you in a coma from 2001 - 2008?

I think Obama got Romney to admit, after denying it over and over, that he plans on following the Ryan plan (which scares the crap out of people) to dismantling medicare and turn it into a voucher program that will cost most of us thousands of dollars more a year. He may have lost the debate, but he won some great new ads to play during prime time in Florida and the rest of the swing states over the next few weeks. As they say, lose the battle but win the war...

Haha , guts....

Yea, I went back and re-read....you maybe right....but affirmative action goes further than just "being black."

Do you have the guts to respond?

The opposition to Dubya was nowhere near the level of hatred expressed toward Obama. I didn't like Bush as President. I didn't like his policies. I didn't like anything he did. And I didn't HATE him. There's a difference between being deeply opposed to a person in a high political office and their policies and having a deep, abiding visceral hatred of that person on a personal level. No, you really can't compare the LEVEL of hate expressed toward Bush and what has been happening to Obama.

Lies told over and over again, do not make them true...

when you talk about a black person and affirmative action, the connection is painfully obvious. Don't be fool enough to try to deny that.

He the President and his wife the First Lady are not big on duty and work- They had their adventure and now they want to return to a life of leisure and fun...I really don't believe that Obama understood that this was not just a lark and ego trip...that it is very hard work...OBAMA DOES NOT LIKE WORK....he will cleverly blow the election.
