Not the policies,, thats understandable,, but the PERSONAL hatred of the man,,,,, I found this article to be interesting

from http://call2action.blogspot.com/2009/09/why-they-hate-obama.html


Our ego wants to believe we are wonderful, and so cannot tolerate evidence to the contrary. Consider America. As good as we are, we have a dark side and our actions often have dark consequences. We are large and cast a large shadow. If we were a more mature people we would simply own our dark side, integrate it into part of our self knowledge, and act accordingly. However American mythology says that we are the good country, and to maintain that the pure version of that belief, we are willfully ignorant of our faults. In the minds of many “patriotic” Americans, we have no dark side. Unwilling to own our dark side, we project our shadow onto others.

The Cold War gave us a long period as “the good country” as the Soviet Union gave us a steady (and objectively evil) force onto which we could project our shadow. After the fall of communism we finally found Saddam Hussein to play that role, which clouded our perceptions of the real Saddam (and again, he was objectively evil). Since the Iraq war we’ve looked for a new target onto which to project our shadow. Perennial candidates China, North Korea, and Iran don’t quite suit our needs, and “the terrorists” finally wore thin. I have wondered who our next victim would be. Now we know.

It is Obama.

The right is projecting its shadow onto Obama. The same qualities that make him a saint to the left make him the devil to the right - he is easy to project onto.


That is why he is the out of control spender when they sat on their hands through all of Bush’s malfeasance. That is why his talking to schoolchildren is dangerous when our government wiretapping its citizens wasn’t. That is why saving the financial system from years of Republican regulation is taking away our future. The more evil revealed about the right’s excesses on torture, or wars of choice, or nearly destroying the economy, the more evil Obama will look in their eyes, as they cannot tolerate owning responsibility, because in their own minds they are only good.

That is why he is the Fascist/Communist/Socialist/Muslim . . . Racism makes Obama the Other, but shadow projection is an even more powerful (if interrelated) force than simple racism, and it is very susceptible to the mob mentality – think Goldberg in Orwell’s 1984. This will not end well. Now that Obama is carrying their shadow, only a dramatic event from outside could change it. . . . The more those on the right deny their own failings, the more their internal unease will increase, the more the hatred to Obama will grow, and the more the need to do something will increase.

only the crazies hate BO PERSONALLY. It's the same with every regime. Hate is a waste of time. It's more practical to point out the failed policies and philosophy of the Obama regime.

Nice smokescreen ...

I agree. I have respect for those who try to educate themself about policy. Even if we disagree, it is something that can truly be debated unlike personal attacks and name calling.

If Hussein would secure the borders, deport Illegals and denounce Islam, I might be able to cut the jerk a little slack!

Think it'll ever happen? Don't hold yer breath.

I am in agreement as well...............not personal....besides hate as I have said before is such a strong word, with strong emotions, and takes to much energy to muster..............

Well, I wouldnt want a President to denounce any religion. However, on the immigration issues, I doubt that(even if he started this second trying to) we could have secure borders before his term is up, I think the process will take quite a while not to mention that he has to work with the Senate and the House and we saw with healthcare how long that process can take.

I would like to see those who were documented, but illegal because they let their documents expire, pay a fine and be permitted to renew and stay. However, I think those who SNUCK in and were NEVER counted and never documented should be sent home. No privilege of remaining,,without the responsibility of following the law, or at least showing SOME Regard for the laws.

He's not going to even attempt to secure us. He's pushing Amnesty.

He will side with the Muslim.

amnesty and repealing dadt are two policies I disagree with as well


the religion, to me , is a non issue

It will be when they start pushing Sharia Law harder.

That might be a good thang!

The only fashion statement women could make is, what shade of black sheet to wear.

Then, no one would know if the old lady was ugly as homemade sin or not.

where are they pushing dress codes,, besides government buildings or schools?

I see nothing wrong with hating an individual who is doing his damnedest to destroy our nation with his 'policies' (I prefer 'agenda'). When I became a father, I fully expected that I'd be able to leave a country at least as good as, and preferably better than, the one my predecessors passed down to me. If this little Communist narcissist has his way, I'll be lucky if I can imagine her and her family living in what he's turned into HIS Marxist vision of Rwanda, Zimbabwe, Uganda - pick one - to make everyone 'equal'. There is none of his fictional 'equality' in the real world. It's just one more technique to control the sheeple and their votes. When I look at what came before him and what's likely to come AFTER him, I have no problem hating a person who wants to do that to my country. That statement, btw, has the virtue of being honest and not 'playing to the audience' ... it's too serious for that kinda crap.

I never doubted you would support hatred, or the notion that any one person has single handed responsibility for how far our country does or doesnt progres,,, we are the country, we have to make it better, not a figurehead in washington,, although I do believe most of them think they know what is best and act on that belief, just as those who post here do...

For a racist white person there is nothing worse in the universe than a black man in power. Especially a power over them. Their head twists like in the Exorcists and green **** spews out all over the rest of us as you have obviously experienced.

It doesn't matter if the **** that they throw at him is true or not, they cannot believe that a black face will ever be any good for this country.

And most people know what they are looking at but there are some who don't realize that none of the crap slung at the president is true and those are the ones at risk of making wrong choices based on lies.

Fox news, Limbaugh, etc... couldn't care less if they are telling the truth either. They just want something they sling to stick so they can remove that black face out of that seat of power.

black or what, he's a smooth talking crap president

Oh. One person CAN'T destroy a country single-handedly ... ? Evidently you conveniently forget Lenin, Marx, Hitler, Tojo, Kim Il Sung, Mao, Pol Pot, Castro, 'Papa Doc' Duvalier, or their predecessors / successors ... damned shame, that ... Santayana is proved right again: "Those who do not remember history are condemned to repeat it." ... I do like that little touch about the 'figurehead in Washington' - it's about the only accurate thing there ... As for that matter about ONE person bearing responsibiility ... ? Who do you think sets the TONE and gives the ORDERS for the üntermenschen to carry out ... ? It sure ain't Biden ...

So who is able to tell what is green spew and what is not?

I can.

This is why I hate politics. People are so blinded by there own beliefs and reasoning. Love or Hate, go ahead and beat each other to death. In the mean time, I'll work on keeping our country going.

I'm with you. I've been working for the benefit of our country since 1966...but I need to tell someone.
I just had a verbal argument in the grocery store because some one was blaming Obama for welfare. That was around long before Obama.

Plain and simple; with some it is racism, with others it's because they distrust all government (until they need something from it), with still others it's a conservative (any change is bad) ideology vs a liberal (some change is good) way of thinking. Then of course there are those where it is all three.
