Why So Much Hate

I believe that a lot of conservatives hate Obama for the same reason they hated Clinton. Clinton for all his flaws was a highly successful president. Clinton cut federal staffing to the lowest level it had been since JFK, he cut federal spending by eliminating and streamlining, and had the longest peace time economic expansion in our nation’s history. Clinton cut the deficit every year he was in office and ended with a surplus. In short Clinton showed up the Republicans up by doing things they said they would do but never got around to. If Obama is successful it calls into question the whole Republican approach. If Obama succeeds the Republicans loose more power and influence so it is in their best interest for him to fail so many will do everything they can to sink our president.

he is by far not the worst president I have ever know, but the worst person I have ever known. In my opnion, he is worse that Bn Ladin and hussan (or however you spell it)

I am not American, however your previous president made your whole country the butt of just about every joke around here, now that guy WAS really bad for you and your image.

Also I do feel sorry for Obama as well…the whole world is placing immense pressure on him, mainly BECAUSE he is the first black president of America and now everyone is expecting miracles, mainly based on his skin color.

And as for abortion, it’s all about opinion, just like this question is I suppose and not everyone sees it as murder and sometimes it is necessary. Also isn’t America supposed to be a democracy I.e. freedom of choice? So by that standards he is correct isn’t he? It should be every womans choice what to do with his or her body. (but then again, that’s only one topic and him being a good/bad president shouldn’t be based on one factor alone)

Ashlyn, to be so “educated” as you say you are it’s funny how you can’t spell Osama Bin Ladens name. Also, to compare a terrorist who killed millions of people to someone who supports the PEOPLES CHOICE, isn’t a very educated thing either.

“and no its not because he is black. at al. im the most non racial person you could meet. especially from the area I live. so im seriously offended by that ignorant remark”

I know plenty of people who live in diverse citys/schools who are racist, just because you see a black person from time to time doesn’t mean that you can’t be racist or that you’re not prejudice. I’m definitely not saying you are, but you know…

Finally, to answer the question. Not everyone is going to like the president, of course. There were plenty of people who didn’t like Bush (very smart people). I see what you’re saying though, people need to learn to support someone who is trying to help change this world and not be so negative. It’s only been a little over a hundred days since he’s been in office and he’s done WAYYY more positive things than Bush did in EIGHT YEARS.

:] I’ve learned Ignorance IS bliss, for some people.

uh, he’s actually one of the best ones. he’s trying to get rid of the money problems[like rich, poor. obviously it’s not going to completely go away, but he’s trying to fix some parts] and deal with most of the big problems. most people don’t like him because he’s black. and some people don’t like him for no reason. like that ashlyn girl. she’s not even naming reasons why she doesn’t like him. she’s just saying it.
hahah are world is sure filled with educated people today. [:

because by passing that VERY LOOSE bill on abortion, he is willingly letting people kill. in my opinion, hes killed more people than anyone.

You’re basing your evaluation on whether your president is good or bad on one item, and abortion is not considered killing by everyone, else it wouldn’t be allowed at all…and not speaking from experience, but wasn’t abortion allowed under the reign of Bush as well?

your name is cuumsneezer.

nuff said.

next time don’t comment on a question that requires someone to be able to fully understand the things Obama has done compared to what Bush DIDN’T do. Obama hasn’t made your family even more poor, how could he be capable of doing that? Muslim is a religion not a race. Malcolm X was muslim. Are you talking down on the muslim religion? If so, why? Do you even know anything about muslims?

Okay, first biracial president, so what? Is that supposed to be an insult? HAHAHAHAAA

Wow. IGNORANCE IS BLISS for some of you isn’t it?

1. YOU CAN NOT SPEND YOUR WAY OUT OF DEBT!!!
2. If he really wanted to stimulate the ecomony give money to the average person to spend. 3.Malcolm X was not such a nice guy as everyone thought go to wikipedia and look him up.

I think Obama is better than Bush. I admit, though, that I don’t know a lot about what Obama is doing or not doing, except that I have noticed that my ‘group’, the ‘disabled’ has been overlooked many times.

most people don’t like him because he’s black.

Actually, for those who don’t like him, that’s the one thing that DOESN’T bother them…

p

LMFAO!!! Easy question. Mannn oh man he makes Bush look great. Wheres the change? Wheres the change in my pocket?? oO;; Jesus just make my family even more poor than it already is. Muslim a.sss. First BIRACIAL president. Not Black ^__^

Ashlyn, you’re not helping your cause. Just stop talking now, you’re making it worse.

Enough said.

barrack obama huh?

cool president.
