Whatever he is, it is bad for the Country and possibly the World.

Our Debt has Tripled on his watch, that is more than the last few hundred years totaled together.

Feds are printing money only limited by their supply of paper, when the super inflation... Excuse me, Hyper inflation hits, you won't be able to buy a loaf of bread with your 501K plan.

Guy is just bad JuJu.....

Then it's odd that he's so popular in other countries, who think that the Republicans have gone mad. He was bad juju for Osama though, and he didn't have to rely on voodoo dolls or St. John the Conquerer root.

He also believes in government controlling all aspects of industry including pricing and what products they can produce, so he stops just short of complete government ownership of industry.

Obama believes in equality of outcome as opposed to equality of opportunity.

There is no doubt that he is a socialist.
No, don't be ridiculous. Obama is certainly no socialist. Anyone who refuses not to believe that only shows him or her self as a gullible fool. You, no doubt, missed hearing Obama say he didn't want to be in the car busness, showing he stands for capitalism, certainly not socialism. So you have no idea what you're talking about. May God help you see the light.

Looking at who he surrounds himself with and his strategy to bypass congress and pass regulations vs legislation. clearly places Obama and friends' brand of society and politics squarely in the dust pile that needs to be swept, vacuumed, bleached and excised out of existence.

To argue labeling concerns as the hook upon which to hang approval or rejection of Obamaworld while ignoring demonstrated actions is the mark of a poor magic trick that attempts to befuddle those perceived to be helpless morons.
Obama most of all is simply a politician. That is a fair and accurate label.

But conservatives surely wonder if Jesus felt it was right for the government to take money from the people against their will in order to give it to help the poor.

But many conservatives don't question why the government is taking money from the people against their will in order to give it to help the rich, after all the rich is going to give the money back to the poor right?

Definitely...one apostle even complained that Mary Magdalene had wasted money on precious oils to annoint the feet of Jesus. Must have been the world's first Republican.

Then you would be wrong. Jesus told everyone to render unto Ceasar what was Ceasar's.

It is wrong to demand that anyone buy anything to just be a citizen and it is unconstitutional. Read the constitution.

Because Obama said he doesn't want to be in the car business doesn't mean that he doesn't want to be in the car business. Please!!! Are you telling the world that you believe any word that he says, along with the word of any other darn politician?
