Obamacare and abortion. Obama is a very big promoter of abortion.

On many other issues Bush and Obama are too much alike, open borders and amnesty to all who disregard the laws of this country, big government spending, NAFTA.

Bow wowing to the Saudi king
Using his office as a stage for hedonistic debauchery while the very people that elected him suffer the most
Changing wartime rules of engagement to a losing strategy that costs lives of our servicemen
Alliance with anarchists
Wasteful spending and allowing more debauchery of public funds by subordinates
Driving up energy prices with foolish notions about high speed rail, driving coal production out of business and investing in wasteful energy technology. What kind of pure rank fool tries to destroy the coal industry while simultaneously pouring tax dollars into coal driven cars
Apologizing for America on the international stage apologizing for a country that has poured national blood and treasure into almost every other country on the planet to improve said countries
Promoting job killing unions
Supporting public unions that are and eventually will bankrupt the country if unchecked
Creating the largest free ride public assistants country in the world instead of jobs for same

I don't have all night but I could damn well take all night!

You forgot resurrecting the auto industry. Oh, that's something positive, of course you wouldn't mention that.

It will not get my vote because I will NEVER forget his doing such a slime ball thing.

That is just one example I know about for sure. There are others which caused me not to vote for him in the first place with the biggest of that being his abortion stance in Illinois.

Sometimes you realize that a persons sense of values are off base.
Sounds like you were fed a bunch of far right wing fodder. Unlike W and the GOP, Obama has shown immense respect and done much for veterans such as:

Addressing the large number of veterans returning home unable to find work, Obama signed the historic "Vow to hire heroes act" giving veterans a substantial leg up on finding employment.

Repealing "don't ask, don't tell", allowing everyone the dignity and respect to serve their country.

And most importantly, ended the horrific false war in Iraq which won't allow another troop to be sent home in a body bag, rather sent home to be with their families where they belong.

Obama is a big promoter of women and women's choice but not abortion. He wants that left up to the individual. There is a big difference. And what republican president has tried to overturn Roe v Wade

That's priceless.

If you loaned someone a bunch of money and they hadn't paid you back, would you consider it a good thing?

The dead would be resurrected with bailouts like Uncle Suggah gives out.

In fact Joe Biden even claimed that the Patriot Act was his brainchild. That's how little difference between the two admins.

That said, I would take a Bush admin over Obama any day. Just look at the Heller decision. The two justices nominated by W both voted to uphold the Second Amendment as being an individual right (Roberts, Alito) The liberal justices all voted no, and the two Obama appointees (Kagan & Sotomayor) would have almost certainly voted no. Obama himself was on record as supporting the DC gun ban that the ruling overturned.
Kind of strange coming from a man who said "They bring a knife and we'll bring a gun" Guess he only wants his people to own guns and not "The People."

That's all I'm hearing from the brainwashed far right with their fingers in their ears that can't understand facts and only obey the right wing fodder of "La la la! I hate Obama! La la la! stop telling me facts! La la la! only the GOP loves the troops!"

The fact is the democrats and Obama have been the ones on the side of the troops.

The truth hurts, doesn't it?
That is silliness beyond retort sonill just pass and let you go on yourlalalala way

Ok so where is the link to that story. And no one is a supporter of abortion. It's ignorant to think that
