There it is. You don't like Obama = racist.

There are legitimate reasons to dislike Obama, but there are a lot of people who don't like him just because he's black. Don't act like that isn't true.

What annoys me is when people claim they don't like Obama for things he's not, like a Muslim or a socialist. When people throw out those reasons, I can make one of two judgments about those people. Those people are either (1) racist or (2) incredibly stupid.

The NSA spying program should be enough to impeach Obama. But he'll never get impeached over that because Republican politicians want to be able to spy when they are the ones in power. Instead, they just shout "BENGHAZI!!!!" Idiots.

Trashy as frick and disrespectful to not only our POTUS but those taking the oath.

I liked HW as a person, loved Bubba, and couldn't stand Dubya. Even so, if I met Dubya today I'd shake his hand and be nothing but polite. If I got an invite to his WH I'd be there in a heartbeat and it would be 'yes, sir" and "no, sir" despite some very serious disagreements with him at the time (as well as today). No matter how awful he was or is in person I'm not going to insult my POTUS. And for better or worse, he was my goddamned POTUS just like Obama is my POTUS and everyone else's (and I have disagreements with him as well). The office deserves my respect and the respect of every citizen.

Even out of office, I was simply taught better than the nonsense you see both sides pulling against the so-called enemy but doing so while in-office is beyond the pale. It's not about the man (or woman) but about respecting the office.
