what you don't seem to realize is that if obama becomes president, about 50% of the country is going to hate him right off the bat. that's what happens. it happens every election, and obama isn't a magician.

Bush's approval rating was in the basement in California from the first yr he was appointed by the Supreme Court. Many Californians predicted that Bush would be a disaster for the nation & he has lived up to that horrible low point every day.
Let's face it, President Bush will be an outsider in his own nation until the day he dies. He is poison & every Republican candidate is running away from Bush as fast as possible. Good riddance to a pathetic man who betrayed his country.
San Franciscians, like nearly all Americans, are so angry & disgusted with President Bush that anything to express that hate is appropriate. The usual resentment of the few Bush fans is unAmerican & shows that they are a very small minority of losers.
Now what about the Dick Cheney? How about the public toilets being named for the Dick?
San Fransisco is the center of the "kook" universe!
The president earns the respect he gets! If Georgie W. hadn’t made such a mess of this nation and caused so much damage and harm to so many ~ maybe he would have a few people giving him some positive acknowledgements, but so far 7 ½ years later this man hasn’t earned anything from most Americans much less their respect. His overall approval ratings show it.
How quickly some people forget of the harm that this man and those of his administration have done over the years to the country and the nation. George W. and Nixon appear to have tied for the histories worst criminal presidents of all time, and I think most Americans liked Nixon better.
I respect no man that has put himself and his administration above the law, and the only polite words that can describe him and the others are “criminals” and “liars”.
Truthful history books for reference of this time period will be those printed in foreign countries because the journalism in America had been lied too and rewritten by these people in office and their kind.
Ohh how quickly do we forget about how all the events unfolded....if we look at it right now no one likes him....in the larger scheme of things he did was he thought was right as he had the ultimate responsibility for figuring them out. How many of us would have liked to decided or figured how how to go about a war on terrorism....How many would like to deal with the biggest attack in history for the US? How many of us would have like to been the call maker on the stockmarket drop of 2001?...The list goes on. All I'm saying is he is our president like him or not defacing him across the world does no good...and in the end if he was right....It's just plain brilliance....someone can go against the main stream and make critical decisions good or bad for what they think is the best intrest of their country and they get ravaged for it.....
Not exactly easy choices. Don’t lie and falsify the facts surrounding them!
9/11 occurred and the actions of this nation moved in directions that were dictated by misinformation and lies coming from agencies of our government. This administration had repeatedly requested that the facts to be alerted to reflect a different view of the issues at hand.
The lies and falsified documents caused not only the nation’s people but the world at large to question those of authority in our administration. A lack of trust and confidence in the president and his people grew daily. Crimes being committed weekly or monthly continued throughout the period of the Bush Administration. A total lack of credibility!
Maybe if the facts (the true facts) had been viewed and considered then (9/11) instead of all the untruths ~ a different avenue of action would have been in the best interests of this nation and the world in general. Maybe the continued destruction of our economy would not have occurred? Maybe this nation would not have lost 4,000+ servicemen and women killed in Iraq and all of the ten’s of thousands who have become injured in combat would have a different life for their family and friends. You know that those who died of their injuries in military hospitals outside of Iraq are not counted in the government totals? This 4,000 + figure is a lie from our government.
The economy is in the trash, the dollar is devalued lower then it has ever been under any president in the history of the nation, more American jobs have gone offshore, and the falsified numbers of these are provided by your government agency of this administration.
The constitution has been altered to fit this administrations needs, and this is a president that we should look up to and give honor to ~ for all this and more? I don’t believe he earned any respect from the citizens.

Since we are in American that is perfectly acceptable opinion. I stated mine. I am going to take it that you aren't calling me a liar and leave it at that if you are make your intentions clear.
So bad mouthing the president is your stand....that's real American of you. Do you need a knife and for the country to turn it's back to you?
....questioning our "elected" leaders is one of the most American things we can do. At least that's what our founding fathers believed.
