It isn't hate...it's disgust over the direction he is taking this country. I know...the lefties would like to say that most hate him because he is black. But while that may be true for some, I think it is a very small percentage. No bigger than blacks hating a white president.

Some of you are so blind...you don't even see reacism as a 2 way street...only white on black.

Well, I'm sorry, but I disagree. Someone who is a genuinely good person but whose ideas are misguided, you can disagree with, and perhaps even "like".

But evil is real. It exists in the world today, and always has. It always will. Was not Hitler evil? Is not Mahmoud Ahmadinejad evil?

I would also describe "Rev" Wright, Barack Obama's pastor of 20 years and his "Black Liberation Theology" as evil. I would further decribe Derrick Bell, whom Barack Obama has praised and told a crowd that they should "embrace him", as evil. People who think as these men do, who preach this kind of hatred, are evil.

By extension, that makes Barack Obama evil, in my opinion, because you cannot separate the man from the ideas that he embraces. He has internalized them. He is a "believer".

Hate is a real emotion, and it comes from strong feelings of resentment, dislike, and disagreement with what something is or what it stands for.

I more than simply "disagree" with Obama's policies. I dispise them, because they are based on the evil that is within the man. He does not have the best interests of America at heart. He seeks to destroy America.

Sorry. I don't simply "dislike" Obama. I despise him.

One cannot be a Communist AND a Socialist. They are wildly different. He is, of course, neither -- study up on what they are. Even if he WERE either -- both are TOTALLY LEGAL things to be in the US.

The left are so hung up on the color of his skin that they don't hear anything else outside of his skin color. They refuse to understand that people don't agree with ideology. They would rather stay hung up on his skin color.

The left showed unceasing vitriol towards President Bush - but they always claimed that they simply disagreed with his policies - rather than hate the man.

I could ask the same question - why do people hate President Bush - still?

Liberals love to use the word "hate" as a substitute for disagreement - it allows them to act as if no one could possibly have a valid reason for opposing leftist policies.

Default Why do people hate Barack Obama?

Right wingers do as they're told.

Bull Pucky! Get over his color already! Damn this black thing is so Fricken... old. People need to over their skin color too. It doesn't work anymore and just an annoyance that people blame everything on their own hatred of their skin color.
