When you are an adult, things don't always go your way. No different with politics, and infact, on a forum as this, some of us may be more brazen, some aloof to saying exactly what we think, and some may hold back a bit. But honesty to me, is still the best. As long as you mean what your saying.

I come on strong, and know it but that is just my personality, and really like people.
I do not like Obama, nor trust him, but i have always had these same feelings, and i am not fake.

For those of you who accept in him, like the job he is doing, will vote for him again, more power to you, that is your choice, not mine.

I am not going to have bad feelings for someone i honestly don't know, that is childish.

And i can seperate personal from business, a shame some people cannot.
In my sincere opinion, one is truly not better then the other, Elephant or Donkey! basically, we all know by know, how politicians operate. But don't sell me on Hope n' Change, if your not going to deliver!

That is true, and probably why this whole question seems weird to me! I pretty much only use FB to keep in touch with friends, mostly with those who don't live nearby... I've moved around a lot in my life, as have my friends, so it's an easy way to keep from losing touch with them. I also have a strict "work-friendly" policy for my page, since I do have a few co-workers & supervisors (both past and present) who are my friends on there. So I generally avoid making political statements, and definitely avoid saying anything that's "questionable" in nature. But I guess people use it for different reasons, and it apparently gets heated for those who use it as a personal political forum.

Very out there with his political beliefs. Hated President Obama unhealthy levels. I didn't just unfriend, I blocked him.
Good for you. I can't handle extremists either, and there's no doubt that some Republicans are running almost solely on the fumes of hatred.

You now want to complain about what people do in their private lives because you think it is juvenile?
It's irrelevant and not open to anyone else's opinion.
