I mean, how or why not wearing a tie/jacket in HIS (Oval) office an issue? Hello? Birthers? Hello? On and on.
I agree that most of the bashing against Obama is unmerited and just plain childish, which is what I've expressed over and over ad nauseum on CD. What I take issue with is the expressed opinions that all conservatives AGREE with such bashing and that is simply untrue. Those who disagree with the Obama bashing are, unfortunately, not as vocal as the ignoramuses who persist in engaging in 3rd grader name calling tactics.

Explain what you mean by the name ignoramus. Somehow I see me being called that since I want to get rid of Obama any way that will work. How does that make me ignorant? I guess not agreeing with you of the supporter class is being an ignoramus. I think just the opposite is the truth.
has anyone ever noticed pbo's 2 handed nut salute when the american flag goes by?
Do you mean holding his nuts? Yep, he does that now and then. Supporting that flag could mean that he isn't a progressive and I don't believe that at all.
It might be nice if Laura and you would learn to provide the entire quote. Since you didn't here is what Obama said:
"................as radical as I think people tried to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn’t that radical. It didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution — at least as it’s been interpreted, and Warren Court interpreted it in the same way, that generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties: [It] says what the states can’t do to you, says what the federal government can’t do to you, but it doesn’t say what the federal government or the state government must do on your behalf."
What you and Laura have done here is deliberately edit the quote to distort the fact that Obama was talking about the Warren Court interpretation. You can disagree with the supreme court ruling but you can't condemn a president whose own opinion agrees or disagrees with a ruling that you obviously don't understand.
Since you seem to be so excited about the negative parts of the Constitution maybe you could talk about the method provided for the making of law by the founders. You can find it in Article 1, Section 7, I think. There is nothing there that allows what the Dems want to do with the Slaughter rule but somehow I think they will try it. It is totally unConstitutional and if that abortion of a law is passed with it I think that the courts will be overcome with all the lawsuits against the Congress. How about you telling me how negative that part of the document is. I ask because it seems that Dems just aren't going to allow the allowed system to be used but will get that thing passed one way or another.
Do you manage to see that passage with that pile of Pelosi will result in pure martial law and there will be more bullets flying than it could ever be worth? If you don't then I wonder what you think will happen.
It'd be funny/sad, what sheep they are, if it werent so damn destructive.
Is that more destructive than the Slaughter rule I asked you about? It was done through freedom of speech and that foul rule is not done from any freedom, at all. Let me know what you think about that thing.

Voicing your dissent about the direction a president is taking the country and the policies that he enacts is perfectly fine. The ignoramuses are the ones irrationally calling him "hussein obama" and other childish names that they can come up with and not offering any valid, coherent complaint about Obama except that his name sounds funny or that he relies too much on a teleprompter or that he failed to wear a tie to an event. By engaging in such name calling and blind partisanship, the poster is demonstrating a level of immaturity that is befitting a 3rd-grader.
this is a hilarious thread! So A President (Obama) who happens to be a Constitutional scholar hates the Constitution?
He says he thinks that it is outdated since it doesn't allow him to do so many things he wants to do. Also, he has agreed that he will go along with the Slaughter rule to get Health Care Reform passed since they can't get it passed any other way. I think that many here should Google that Slaughter rule because most don't have any idea what it is. Hell, it is a manner of passing this thing through the House without a vote. They are saying that the thing can be passed through the House by the leadership voting for it and not allowing the membership to vote. That is one of the most unconstitutional things of the past few years and it would result in the end of the US of A.
