Obama doesn't annoy me that much. I don't like his views on redistributing wealth. I do admit that Obama does act and look very Presidential most of the time unlike Vice President Biden. I am much more annoyed by Obama supporters and how they act. I also hate those stupid shirts and pictures with an Obama portrait drawn like old Soviet/Communist propaganda posters. I saw them everywhere around my school during the weeks leading up to the election.

I've warmed up to Obama and hope he does great things for this country, but some of his followers swear the man walks on water. People, he's a politician, not the Messiah.

I voted his supporters most annoying, mainly because I've NEVER seen so many people acting like God dropped right out of heaven to anoint them personally or something. And the hymns....that killed it for me! As for Obama, one thing that really irritates me about him to the point that I can't even listen to him, is that he whistles his S's. I have to change the channel on the radio or tv every time he's on. It's like nails on a chalkboard to me...

Sad that you don't know how "out-of-sync" you are from other Texans who look away in embarrassment every time you post. Don't be ashamed of your worship of Bush but know that you speak only for yourself in Houston. Quit being a clown in front of the world.

Actually the only thing so far that we are bothered by is Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, other than those two, we like some of Obama's proposals on SS. We wish him well.

i tinks osama is a sosilist. I dont know what that is as I nevir got past 7th grade. but i am sure he is out there to take my mony and give it to bums! I am not very educatid so i dont know that sosilism and capitalism both have taxes and having the goverment regulate the banks happend on bush's term. I am not smart enough for that so I just call him a sosilist and hate him!

I'm not annoyed by Obama. I think I would probably like him if I met him. I hope he does a good job and makes me want to vote for him in 2012. I do disagree with him on a lot of things though.

Of his supporters, some are annoying, others are not.

Obama's extreme hardcore supporters remind me of the people who attended Jim Jones "Peoples Temple".

I voted for the supporters not because of them personally but because it scares me how they look at him like he is a "God". He is a man no more and he should be seen as such not as a messiah that will magically solve all your problems. The only one that will make you happy and fix your life, is you not a politician.
