Lets try this for the mentally dim.....Obama was getting death threats BEFORE he was president unlike bush. There are racist factions in this country who want Obama to get assisinated in order to fuel a race war. Check out any of their sites since you have trouble believing me

WASHINGTON - Death threats are part of the job for any American president, but Barack Obama has reportedly had more levelled against him than any commander-in-chief in history.

Concerns about his safety are mounting in the midst of a tense summer that has seen mobs of angry demonstrators showing up to protest Obama's health-care reform plans - including a man openly carrying a pistol on Tuesday in New Hampshire, where the president held a town hall meeting on health care.

More at the link.

This is no surprise to me. There are still a ton of racists in this country that will never accept a black man in office. Honestly I am surprised there hasn't been a known attempt yet. I even heard about pools going around on how long it will be before someone takes him out.
But liberals are the ones promoting immoral behavior.

Those backward racist hicks need to stop their .

They claim it's all about government spending, but they weren't whining about what was going on under the Bush Administration.

Could you blame them? There seems to have been an increase in mental illness accompanied by violence in this country. How many presidents since then have had assisination attempts or killed since than?

Regardless of what is being reported it boils down to the fact that many of them cannot accept a blackman as the president

Never heard of that movie & I'm pretty much a film freak. I don't condone even a slight threat to kill any president, how stupid could someone be??

Death of a President (2006)

Canadians, Europeans and American libs loved this movie...it even won awards. The MSM treated it gingerely, but it was all over Internet news sites.

I reiterate, Obama death threats? BFD, it comes with the job, get used to it, quit whining racism all the time.

American liberals loved it? And you base that on what exactly? It only made $167,000.
Death of a President Movie Reviews, Pictures - Rotten Tomatoes

Isn't it quite possible that most people felt as Hillary Clinton did:

"I think it's despicable," Clinton said of "Death of a President," a fictional film that features a staged assassination of the president in 2007. "I think it's absolutely outrageous. That anyone would even attempt to profit on such a horrible scenario makes me sick."
