they won't listen, instead they'll defend it , say how hes a bad president and deserves it or how bush got called bad names too so they will become just like the liberals they claim did the same act
I'm listening, and I think the names we give these fools are cute.
I especially like GeeDurrbya, Mittens, and Bambi--they sound like the 7 dwarves' cousins.
Not even you can resist.... See the bold.. The "one' is the only one who respects himself.. He has never been any president for many, and many more now wish he wasn't one for them!
He is free to go pound salt.... Exactly what has he accomplished, other than being a perfect failure, and super racist.
In history he will go down as an Error.
When I used the term "one", I used it in place of "you". My point is that even if your don't agree with his policies, the least everyone can do is respect his title and stop referring to him as "obummer" or "obozo".
I make a point of - and any search of my posts will prove this - to refer to the president as President Obama.
However I am certain that the horn effect will kick in and many people on this forum will refuse to acknowledge this fact and lump me in with the disrespecters simply because they can't fathom that someone who holds the views that I do could be so respectful.

Exactly. Respect the person - if they have earned it. But never respect a position. I don't call our president disrespectful names (or anyone else for that matter) only because "do unto others as you would have them do unto you", but respecting positions leads to submission regardless of the quality of person in that position. Under that thinking Assad should stay in power and we should still be under the crown.
Generally the second I see one of those things (or an American calling him "your president") I immediately know the poster is not someone who thinks clearly and who is blinded by hate.
I personally did not vote for him in 2008 (I voted for Bob Barr) and wont again in 2012 (Gary Johnson for me this year), but I still respect the man. But you can tell that most of the people who call him "Obozo" or "Odummy" clearly do not respect him and never did...and it's usually for reasons which are not related to politics.
I think Romney is an utter tool and anyone who supports him is either idiotic, evil or greedy...but I still call him Romney or Mitt, not Mitt the Twit or Bumney or some other idiotic variation.
I see the same thing. There are many times when I wonder about President Obama, but he is still our President and I respect him as such. I don't feel the need to call him "Obummer" and "Obamanator" or "Obozo". Usually, when I hear names like that, I don't think it has as much to do with politics as some people might say.
