He's been horrible. As worse as Bush or McCain would have been.

Now the "middle road" is so far to the right that it will be Decades before sanity is restored.
This is what happens when one of your own turns out to be such a back stabber.
Unfortunately, you're probably right. But what's the alternative, an even more obvious corporatist like Romney, or god forbid, paired with one of the GOP's kookier "base" types for a VP... like a Perry or Palin (shudder)?!!
[quote=Dockside;21073865]GWB did nothing to make my skin crawl. He was a good man in an impossible situation and he did a good job. I was hoping Obama could start cutting back on the Patriot Act, but the man has only made things more volatile and dangerous in the Middle East, so we are going to be stuck with the PA and the TSA feeling us up for a long time.[/quote]
If Bush had spent more time actually working at presidential duties and less time in Texas cutting brush, he might have amounted to something besides the man who started a war for no reason, and Americans might still have money in their retirement plans.
I hope he lives to be a hundred, and every time he looks in a mirror the five thousand soldiers that he sent to unnecessary deaths stare back at him, and may they be the first to meet him on the other side.
All the things GW. Bush did that made your skin crawl, what has Obama done to change it?
Looks to me like he has double downed, on Bush's policies, everyone had a cow about.
Of Bush's 8 years, what has Obama tried to reverse?
I can tell you what he double downed on, though.
Bush did nothing to make my skin crawl...
I loved it when he landed on the deck of that carrier...in full military garb...I loved that...
I also loved his off beat sense of humor...(he was goofy and cute at the same time)...a grown child....
And I loved the fact that he use to fly F-4 Phantomns...one of my favorite war birds of all time...
(yes I know this is not a F-4)
And I love his bull horn episode...'The world will soon hear us'...ye!
I had nothing but respect for the man...towards the end...I feel he got a bit careless with the domestic economy...but that's no reason for me to 'hate' him...he's human...and I've got nothing but love for the guy...
Thing about me...is I'm a man...and I'm not stupid or dense enough to allow talk radio hosts to dictate who I like or not like...
I'm independent and think for myself...
I'm an American...I was born here...and as such...I will always offer a level of support to whomever is President...my sense of country...is stronger than any one political party...
I may not vote for a Republican President ever again...but dm if I'll ever disrespect a standing President...be it they Rep or Dem...
United we stand...divided we fall...
