Thread Name: BS: As much as I've grown to dislike Obama
Subject: RE: BS: As much as I've grown to dislike Obama
I think it's utterly ridiculous to say that the people who voted for Obama only have themselves to blame. That's an insult to everybody with intelligence and would cause Perry's camp to collapse in laughter and thank you for that brilliant analysis.

Obama has kept virtually every Bush policy intact. He has not gotten rid of the DHS, he has not gotten rid of the Patriot Act, he cannot manage this war any better than Bush did. He got rid of DADT--well, pardon me, but I really don't think that's important right now. I'm furious with him over his administration's policy on medical marijuana. I'm furious with him that he did nothing about the thievery of contractors in Iraq. He has done nothing about ridiculous TSA searches at airports. Can't close Guantanamo even though he promised to. His attempts to restart the economy have been a failure. He's the best friend the fanatical conservatives have--if he was white, they'd have made a god of him by now.

I think he should step aside and let Hilary run in his stead. Can't be any worse than him.

I'm more disappointed with him than I have been with white liberal/moderate politicians who promise the moon but don't deliver--I knew from experience not to believe them.
