Obama and the Democrats (who created the economic crisis in the first place) are making it worse (and I believe it is deliberate). What they are doing brings us ever closer to depression day by day.
This is why we want them to fail.
Why don't you take those blinders off, and look at the truth for a change?
Speaking of being blind to truth...how can you say Obama and the Democrats caused the crisis when the Republicans were in power for the 6 years leading up to it? That the previous administration wasted over a trillion dollars fighting in Iraq whil Bin Laden laughed at the stupidity of our inept leadership.
I know you're delusional, but seriously, blaming the Democrats for this crisis is pretty sad, as they had no power whatsoever from 2000-2006, which is when this crisis really began. Blame Carter and Clinton all you want, there's been just 12 years of Democratic control and 24+ years of Republican control since 1972.
That being said, both parties are stupid and are doing the wrong things to fix this country. We need more Libertarianism, not more Fascism (like the Right Wing wants) and not more Socialism.
If you're so smart, what do you propose we do to fix the economy?
Ah ... I haven't read this entire post but the thread's title is pretty provocative "why are right-wingers so fevently anti-American???" With a title such as this, don't tell me the OP was not looking for an argument.
There are hundreds of intentionally provacative anti-Obama threads posted on this forum each week...
Want to complain about them too? Or is your resentment one sided?

THAT is an insult.
Exactly! That's like people saying that liberals are all anti-American. Just accept the fact that republicans and democrats have different ideology and political stances and MOVE ON! Sheesh!

As opposed to the democratic ideology where the power hungry dems can't wait to control every facet of this country.
You can see it on this forum hundreds of time each day...
You hear it daily on Limbaugh and Hannity radio shows...
Far right conservatives are hoping and praying for the failure of the Obama administration - and for the downfall of the country if that is necessary to improve the Republican party's chance of victory...
This is so outrageously anti-American - it makes you gag to think these hypocrites sport American flags on their lapels, or constantly talk about patriotism.. and in the next breath pray for the failure of the desperate economic measures forced upon Obama by the horrendous mismanagement by his predecessor...
Bush and his Republican cabal created the economic mess we are in - that is clear...
Obama and the Democrats are trying to fix things and keep us from sinking into a depression...
What do the Republicans do?? They snipe, they criticize, they obstruct, they refused to lift a finger to fix the problem that they created...
I have confidence in the average American (not in the distorted sampling of nutcases on this forum however) - and I am SURE they will give Obama credit for working for our good - and will continue to support him - and that there will be a heavy price the Republicans will pay at the polls for their unforgiveable behavior.
The election propaganda fund ran out two months ago. Didn't you get the memo?
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi launched an aggressive whip operation to persuade members the bill was their best shot at trying to force Bush to abandon his Iraq policy.

Dissent is extremely patriotic and thank God for it. The day Americans are afraid to point out the wrongs of their country, their government is the day we ceased to deserve our democracy and all it's freedoms. Let freedom ring and dissent rule. All Americans unite and take back their country from the corruption of today. It is time to unite!
The OP was NOT a troll - that's just your distorted opinion.
I feel that many of the anti-Obama posters are so filled with hate for the man that they would gladly see the country fail and go into depression just to make him look bad, and to (in their minds only) see the Republicans rise to power.
I agree - many on the right-wing have been behaving very anti-American for the past few months...
I've posted here many times that I want President Obama to succeed. You want to go after me for something I said on this thread, fine. If I did something that bad I will take my lumps for it. If I crossed a line in that regard then so be it. Just don't accuse me of wanting the President to fail. I can produce plenty of posts where I said exactly the opposite. I can produce even more from other conservatives who have said the same thing. I have seen virtually none that wish for him to fail, so if they exist there can't be many. That makes the OP a troll. President Obama won because he deserved to win, and that has nothing to do with anything that anyone posted in this thread. Judge me by what I actually say all that you wish, but don't judge me based on assumptions, because you will be wrong.

I have made repeated complaints about the anti-Obama threads as well so what's your excuse?
