You are correct, Obama nearly doubled the national debt to $20 trillion.

I couldn't care less what color he is. He has absolutely no heart, and it certainly showed throughout his alleged "presidency".



Uh, not so fast, Lee Corso. Obama is certainly an apologist for Muslims, and that's if he hasn't converted already. He ought to prove that he isn't one. If he were a Christian, then he sure as heck did not practice what he was supposedly taught.
Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? The ignorant remark that Obama is a Muslim, but even further that he did not practice what he was taught. He showed compassion and understanding beyond anything that Trump has done.

So is that why Democrats lost over 1000 seats during the Obama presidency and with the promise that Hillary was Obama 2.0, Democrats lost the presidency... He only showed that he was a power grabber who wanted bigger government.

The tax payer can't afford Obama's America!

We don't care about Trump being a liar. All politicians lie. Most people lie. It's what he does with those lies and bottom line is he never takes responsibility for anything. It may not bother you because you haven't experienced someone like that in your personal life but it's a big deal.

It's quite likely that's what it is but only a part of it as you said. He was also a Democrat but also largely because he is aloof. The most extreme of extroverts (which are usually Trump supporters) don't like people like Obama because they don't trust him. When you're an introvert you have to work harder. Unless you're the next Eleanor Roosevelt the people are likely to not accept you.

The disdain alone doesn't bother me personally. I know it doesn't bother Obama. He laughs it up. He knows he's successful and did his best. That's all that mattered to him when he was in office.
What bothers me is that they hate him so much that they'd vote in the man we have now (most likely that is what bothers Obama as well). So because Obama failed at some things that gives you a reason to elect the worst of the snake oil salesman? You had a plethora there and you chose Mr. "I peep in young girls dressing rooms and neglect my own daughter"

Is this the "whomever smelt it dealt it" defense? Why couldn't he be an athiest or agnostic?

My question is, what happened under Obama that angered conservatives to such a great extent? Was it the climage change policy? The rainbow White House after the gay marriage decision? The trangender bathroom policy? What did Obama did to warrant this kind of hatred and thirst for revenge?
So funny! Trump has been in office for a couple of months and look how angry you are.

You do realize that the biggest contribution to Trump's win had nothing to do with Obama and everything to do with Hillary as the nominee, right? You need to put the blame where it belongs, the Democratic Party. Start asking questions about that.

What "feelings" are you having? Obama didn't give me "feelings", I considered him a traitor. Got tired of him insulting our citizens and making us the doormat to the world as he wanted to be the "world leader", what a joke. I didn't care to have someone that had used hard drugs as POTUS either, or someone that thought America was an imperialist nation and should pay for their sins.

Ah, the liberal buzz word "Hatred". We didn't "hate", that is much more of a liberal trait. And revenge, no idea what you are talking about. You think not voting for the morally, mentally and physically incompetent Hillary Clinton was revenge on Obama? Oh, heck no! That was wisdom gained over years of knowing the Clintons for what they are.

I can see that you really have no idea what the issues were with Obama since all of what you listed are social issues that you actually seem to harp on constantly. It really is time to get over it. Clinton is defeated and Obama will soon be irrelevant as will be your constant rants about Trump, conservatives, Republicans, Christians, etc.

And, the bathroom issue and "feelings", never going anywhere, biological never changes. Give them an "OTHER" bathroom if they can't handle being with their OWN gender, but they can't peek that way!
