Because his entire montage about bringing us together was crap. He wants what HE wants and does not care what the people want. It is all about HIM and how dare anyone challenge him. HE thought when he was elected that it was going to be smooth sailing for him to do whatever he wanted he never dreamed so many including those in his own party would stand up to him.

We have had just about enough of this thug from Chicago!
It is the other thugs from Chicago that I can't stand. Like the Emanuel brothers, Axelrod and Messina.

Isn't it time even you expect this president to take responsibility and quit trying to blame his failures and decisions on everyone else? Can we ever expect he will MAN UP?
One way you can tell he's not talking about the people at the town hall meetings is that, obviously, they didnt "create the mess."

He's getting a tremendous amount of difficult work accomplished in an extraordinary situation and he's only been in half a year. That's like, if a four-year term = four days, he's been in only up to noon of the first day. People seem to want him to snap his fingers and have everything fixed by tomorrow morning. Why wont you face the reality that he DID inherit a horrible mess? Goodness.

i am beginning to wonder who exactly are the people doing the hate posts.
i never see them do any posting except to bad mouth the president.
Surely you could list all the good things he has done for the country and then be ready to defend your list, if need be. Maybe just 3 things.

The hatemongering is not run-of-the-mill disapproval...it is treason.
More treasonous than what Bush put up with for almost his whole 8 years? I don't understand talk like that.

I don't think you will do that and I can guarantee that until they lock me up for exercising my freedom of speech I won't either. I guess I am a Nazi racist so they may come after me. I didn't vote for him and that makes me racist to many of the left orientation.

Good grief people look at where this country is heading.. it doesn't even have a whole lot to do with Obama himself it is the politicians from many years back. Republicans or Democrats they all tell us what we want to hear and then do it the way they want. No WE the people should NOT shut up...WE didn't cause this mess.

why do you all like to pretend you're victimized? You surely know the truth by now in your hearts about this "get out of the way" thing but you just cling to the romantic image of yourselves as oppressed and likely to be chased and persecuted any day now. What a strange psychology.

Was that kind of like sicing a bunch of union thugs on that poor man in St. Louis? I guess that depends on whether you are talking literal or figurative.
