People are smarter this time around, you can only be ignorant to the facts for so long, when the facts are all around us.
I think I see as many anti-Obama bumper stickers as I do pro-Obama bumper stickers. I don't hear anyone enthusiastically supporting him. I hear many people enthusiastically opposing him. His support has weakened from 2008. President Obama has not been a highly successful president by any means. Hopefully people will start to think if he promises everything again.

* In Fox's report of the death, there were 7 images shown of George Bush, and not one image shown of Obama. Gee, guess who Fox wants to give credit.
* Fred Barnes told Fox News that Bush told him “bin Laden doesn’t fit with the administration’s strategy for combating terrorism.” - that capturing bin Laden is "not a top priority". Why would it not be? Why would repugs want Bin Laden on the loose?
Romney is just another Republican. Traditional conservatives should start speaking out, otherwise I will just lump them all together.

Oh, so now you change it to the media, rather than just Republicans in general.

I have heard some Conservatives in the media point out President Obama's hypocrisy in the matter. Obama says that we won't spike the football with Bin Laden. Then he makes getting Bin Laden into a political re-elect me video as if it were a tough decision. President Obama rejected interrogation methods that the insiders are saying directly led to the info of getting Bin Laden.

It is fair game to look at Obama's role in getting Bin Laden, the second he makes it a campaign issue.

Always vague platitudes and pronouncements with very little detail.
* You are talking about torture and "insider experts" hand-picked by Fox.
* Any repug would make BL a campaign issue. If Bush got him they would have held ticker tape parades. Bush would have shown up - in uniform, codpiece and all. Who are you kidding?
* Obama cited Bush for his "part" in the capture, though he didn't need to.
If Obama wanted to "spike the football" he had every right to. Your last sentence is vague. It suggests Obama had little role in getting BL and Bush deserves the credit?

Oh my, how will I sleep at night, an opportunistic bimbo won't be voting for Obama! Had she not said this, she would never be in the news again, she wants to get in headlines and this is the only way how.

detwahDJ,

* You are talking about torture and "insider experts" hand-picked by Fox.

If you call waterboarding torture, yes. Handpicked phony experts by FoxNews? You mean like CIA Chief Leon Panetta on NBC News is a phony expert! I suppose the CIA guy in charge of the interrogations at Gitmo, Jose Rodriquez telling CBS on 60 minutes is also a hand picked phony expert person by FoxNews!


* Any repug would make BL a campaign issue. If Bush got him they would have held ticker tape parades. Bush would have shown up - in uniform, codpiece and all. Who are you kidding?

What were you saying about platitudes and pronouncements? You need to day dream less.


* Obama cited Bush for his "part" in the capture, though he didn't need to.
If Obama wanted to "spike the football" he had every right to. Your last sentence is vague. It suggests Obama had little role in getting BL and Bush deserves the credit?

So you admit, Obama is a hypocrite on this issue and made it a political issue?

You are partisan to the point that you have lost rationality.
A lot of Repubs on this forum were upset that Bin Laden was killed, yes, indeed. Go do a search.

You are in Orange County (the bastion of the Republican party and....the birthplace of the Klan in the state of California) so seeing anti-Obama signs in your territory doesn't really count.

If he is potentially losing "Obama Girl" - how many other teenie boppers is he potentially losing?

No wonder Obama has been going gangbusters with slow jamming the news, ads on MTV and cheap celebrities.
Newsflash for the misinformed and clueless: President owns the youth vote.

Along with the youth of this country, he is supported by the following:

Women
Native Americans
Blacks or AAs
Asians
Mexicans or Hispanics
Indians
Gays
The unemployed, underemployed
Historically disadvantaged
Working class
Blue-collar
The urban population in every city in every state
Progressive, enlightened, educated, non-bigoted whites
The entire Northeast, Midwest, and Far West
Immigrants
Those who support the Arts, medical research, and the Environment
College-educated
High-tech
Hollywood
Silicon Valley
Elderly relying on Medicare and Medicaid
The sick, poor, and weak
The underprivileged and underclass
Those who are not bigots
Those who remember what Republican represent because of Bush
Those sick of the Republicans in Congress
Those sick of Fox, Limbaugh, and the rest of those right-wing kooks
Those who are not narrow-minded
Those who are not fooled by GOP deceptive marketing
Those who hate Scott Walker
Those disgusted with the entire GOP presidential field
Those disgusted with the very sad Romney
Those who vote Democrat as a matter of course
....so on and so forth.

What this girl does means nothing. Get a clue.

Enjoy President Obama's second term.
