You simply post numerous times about your hatred for Obama.

I failed with the statement of you starting threads, not at all about your hatred.
Disagreeing with the POTUS = hatred? LMAO! Do you hate politicians that do not agree with your political views? I do not hate President Obama - I strongly disagree with his policies.

You need to tone down the hyperbole. Share just one post that I have made that you consider a demonstration of hatred on my part for President Obama.

This should be an interesting peek into the liberal mindset.

I fit neither, so I can't move to Europe.

I'm quite eager to spend some time living in Europe for the cultural experience and to work on my language studies. But it's too hard to move there for an American.

No thanks. I wouldn't mind a cruise to Alaska because it's so pretty, but certainly wouldn't want to live there.

I maintain that if I had known that the Bush daughters were receiving taxpayer Secret Service protection on their school trips - I would have been as outraged as I am now. You libs want so badly to think that everyone sees the world from a partisan point of view just as you do. Not so - I am a man of principles - and I apply those principles evenly and without bias.

Sending the Secret Service out of the country to protect a student on a school trip is a waste of taxpayers money. It is a benefit that other American students don't receive and it is a form of welfare just as Ron Paul said. If Obama or Bush wanted the Secret Service to accompany their children out of the country - that is fine - but they should pay for it.

Where did I ever say I wanted "everything for nothing" - I am a conservative - I work for what I have - I certainly don't want a handout. - you have no argument so you put words in my mouth - real impressive!

Malia is in private school - tax dollars don't fund her education - and they shouldn't pay for security when she is on a school trip.

Selective memory, perhaps?

In the minds of a certain element of the Right, The United States of America is in a constant de facto state of cold war with every other nation on Earth!!! The very notion of crossing a foreign border is an act of treason.

Yes, Americans fund the office of the President and ALL it entails.

YOU want to escape your fair share...YOU want something for nothing.






Ya left off the really silly part where you think Obama is letting his kids play hooky...was rather embarrassing thing to say , wasn't it.

I want something for nothing? We are discussing the Secret Service protecting Malia on a school trip out of the country. I DON'T want my money being used for that - how can you claim I want it and don't wish to pay for it? The persons who want it and don't want to pay for it are President Obama and President Bush - they should foot the bill for the Secret Service if their children go on a school trip out of the country. What part of that do you not understand?
