I see no hatred in my comments. Disgust, yes.

They are attacking private citizens who disagree with them on an almost daily basis, absolutely vilifying them, and are attempting to silence the voices of dissent by whatever means, including elimination of the means by which some of these voices are heard (talk radio), effectively controlling what I hear. Does that sound like "America" to you?
Just more sour-grapes from an obviously sore-loser..

Dubya did hundreds times more damage to our liberties than Obama ever will...

People are today in jail for dairing to protest at Bush rallies...

The AIG Bonuses should be stopped - at least Obama is doing something to stop them - Bush would have encouraged AIG to give even more bonuses - that there's plenty more taxpayer dollars ...

Why not just continue to listen to Hannity and Limbaugh and stew in your misery - and leave the tough decisions in government to the adults...

Wrong. But I refuse to stand idly by and watch our country be destroyed by one who has said he intends to "fundamentally change" it to something other than what our founders created. He does not have that right, and it is not his job.

But, apparently, people like you do not care.

Really? Do you have some proof of this claim? Or did they commit crimes while protesting? The right to protest does not give one the right to violence or to commit a crime in the process.

They were part of a contract that was made over a year ago. What right does anyone have to stop them from being paid, whether or not you agree with it? Further, they are nothing unusual.

Obama knew about these bonuses months before. They are simply feigning outrage to distract from their other agenda items so that they can slip them through unnoticed.

And you know this because...?

How did I know this was coming? You people are so predictable.


Where are the "adults" in this administration? There are none. If there were, they wouldn't be waisting time with attacks on people like Rush, and they would instead be doing something to solve our economic problem (for which they have yet to offer even one solution).

They aren't making the "tough decisions". They are flailing their arms. They have no idea what they are doing.

The trouble is, they created the problem in the first place! That's why everything they do makes it worse.
