Dear obama lovers.

I understand your disappointment, I really do.

It sort of feels like we conservatives felt when Bush signed on to "No Child Left Behind".....a Ted Kennedy sponsored bill.

It's also how we felt when Bush initiated "Medicare Part D", another "bi-partisan" big government program.

Just remember to recycle your "Hopey-Changey" signs and posters!

and there's no shame in letting your neighbors see you do it!

I hear there is a backlog of McCain/Palin and Romney/Ryan posters waiting to be recycled, and those should be recycled by around 2016. Just in time to start on the next GOP ticket.

I would think that most Obama supporters would be very very embarassed at this point. The failures of Obama's economic policies, the lack of a budget under his watch, foreign affairs nightmares, the failure of his green initiatives, his constant divisiveness on race, class and gender matters, unemployment, the constant gaffes his VP makes, the mess that is Obamacare and the fact that it is raising premiums and cutting hours for people, more debt and more spending (when he promised to cut), the teleprompter goofs and how it seems it is his crutch, more people on disability, foodstamps and below the poverty line, women and minorities are doing worse under him, and his constant blaming of the previous admin; all of these serve to make him such an ineffective and terrible President that is is a colossal disappointment. He has made this country weaker and worse and we will all pay for it in the long run.

I love how conservatives constantly accuse our President of "divisiveness on race".

I guess to a party that did not send a single representative to the 50th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King's historic speech on civil rights, there will always be this divisiveness on race when a black man is in charge.

And we all know who causes it. It sure ain't the President.

The speakers were there by invitation and the only black US Senator, a Republican from SC, was not invited. Whose decision was that, if there were no Republicans involved? Oh wait, GWB was invited but he was inconveniently recovering from health concerns. How (in)convenient.

He'll never reach people like you and others in the GOP. The 50's are gone for good. It is 2013 and we continue to see institutional racism lessening as the "old guard" in the GOP dies off.

The new GOP had better get with this century or it will die off too.

Hasta la Vista.....

So this is how he united people? No, the problem is not raching people like me as I preach unity rather the separating people based on their differences. The problem is that he is folling people such as you. You obviously cannot come up with anything on how he has brought race relations to a better place so you attacked me and the GOP and grasped at the tired old mantra that we are racists when in fact the racism resides on the left.

Why don't you start thinking of people as people and not as black or white or hispanic or based on their gender or class? That seems to be what our President is doing.

Appearing on National TV telling America that the "police acted stupidly" for arresting a black man for disorderly conduct wasn't divisive. Isn't it funny how no disciplinary action at all was ever taken against the police in the matter.

Stating that a black thug who was killed after attacking a man looks like the son he never had while remaining silent on the multitude of other black on white crime isn't divisive. Launching a witch hunt DOJ investigation after he was acquitted certainly isn't divisive either.

How about giving the Black Panthers a free pass for a clear cut case of voter intimidation? You guessed it- not divisive. It must be all Bush's fault still.

Who said anything about us being disappointed? Your bitterness shines in every post of yours. That alone would make it worthwhile.
