Using that logic, anything that isn't universally accepted is "dividing the nation"

Capitalism? Dividing the nation against socialist.
Bombing Iran? Dividing the nation
Any and every political position? Dividing the nation.

p.s. He was also the greatest president in the history of this country. F*ck unity as far as I'm concerned. The republi-babies need to stop whining, pay their taxes, or get the f*ck out of the country and go live in the Caymans.
If you are so dead set on changing this country, then why dont YOU leave.. Many of us like it here.

Wrong, people can disagree without dividing taking place. Its when you use one AGAINST the other that you are dividing. You dont need to take wealth from the 1% to grow wealth for the other 99%, but thats what this president believes. Its so utterly ridiculous and false that I wonder how many people could vote for this stupidity.

For some reason, Liberals and Democrats put a premimum on Barack Obama that he doesn't deserve. When in the history of mankind did it become affirmative to Lead From the Back of the Pack?â„¢

What are you kidding! If this were the Great Change he was bringing to us, to change this Nation and make it better? He lost his premimum status. This Country is more divided now then ever, some great change you brought to us Obama.

I heard someone say, on one of the news channel that in order to have a sustained growth for the economy, we need to have growth for a full 6 months straight And in all avenues.

He is an arrogant, pompas, bully Preisident, that has got to get his way, and if you disagree with him, Gosh help you.

Did you forget about those 2 years ?
Sure do, do you remember the record wingnut filibusters after Ted Kennedy died and the dems only had 59 votes in the senate? Wasn't that about six months into Obama's first year?

You trying to revise history?

How is the 1% being used against the 99%?

Or better yet, how is the rhetoric behind that different than what gets said about those on welfare?

You cant be serious? Did you even listen to the state of the union address where Obama blamed the 1% for the deficits, and government not having enough, or their greed.

Don't use Obama's skin color as a crutch, for your inability to defend him. Don't try to use the legitimate disagreements we have with Obama's political ideology, and legitimate objections he have over his wasteful government spending and his crony capitalism, and disguise it as racism.
59 votes against GOP filibusters is not controlling everything.
