I know they are unlikely in a thread like this one.

Do you really think that Michelle wouldn't love to be the queen of Sheeba? She already acts like she is. Obama already thinks he was "elected" as a dictator and dare disagree with him he will relentlessly cry to his base. How dare they.

I have never, ever seen a "president" like this. The presidency has been mangled into something I don't know.
He has built upon what Bush started and many complaining now were strangely quiet when he was. Granted, many defending the actions now were condemning Bush for building the problems we are seeing today.

One can condemn without the silly name calling meant to do nothing but inflame.
In the political arena, those with thin-skin don't fix problems, they create them... kinda like what you are trying to do right now...

What would you claim is getting fixed here?

Would you make the argument that Obama's statement of "clinging to their guns and religion" did anything to solve a problem or did it further drive a wedge?

Yea, kind of like republicans will likely work with Obama who is constantly attacking and blaming republicans every time he opens his mouth. Attacking and blaming may be good for Obama's base but it hardly did any good with relations. Nothing like alienating the people needed to reach bipartisan compromise.

Do you actually think Obama's base understand this. They think they can bully everyone into compliance.

Oh, that's right, Obama doesn't believe in compromise. He wants his way period.

I'll stand behind this in the context of the discussion you jumped into the middle of.

Yes, very much the same. It doesn't work does it?

Oh please! don't lecture me.

Do you think Obama followers will understand? Really? LOL, Hardly.

But really... what difference does it make any more.

Lecture you? I agreed with your point and asked you a question. One you didn't answer.

Yes, I believe they understand. The question is whether they will condemn.

No, I don't think they do understand. And of course they won't condemn, even if they did recognize what is going on the liberal media will get them back in line.
