When I was growing up I was taught to show respect for the president. (Even if the president was a member of the "other party.")...Of course we didn't always agree with a president's policies or "political leanings." But we didn't "go whacko" and "trash" the president in mean and childish ways...I was taught that my words and my behavior serve as reflection of my character...All of the "mud-slinging" that goes on today makes me feel sick to my stomach at times. I feel ashamed. What happened to our country? When did respect fly out the window?...I'm not against a little humor or satire once in awhile. (In good taste.) But some of the "stuff" that goes on today and some of what is "said" is downright mean and cruel and "tacky" and childish. (In my estimation anyway.) And I don't want to be part of any of it...I don't want to "win" at all "costs." I don't want to cheapen myself or tell lies or become a "scuze-ball" in order to "win."...I will accept whichever candidate wins the coming election. And treat him with respect even if I don't agree with all of his policies. I agree although, If we go back to Republican leadership (With the current republican ideals anyhow),, Im considering moving with my family to another country,,,lol |

After all, other presidents have created government programs every bit as large or larger than anything implemented by the current administration; they have created far higher taxes, and added much more to the deficit.
Here is an excerpt from a CBS News report: The National Debt has now increased more during President Obama's three years and two months in office than it did during 8 years of the George W. Bush presidency.
what government 'program' does the debt fall under?... and that it has grown in three years is a way to mislead people who dont understand how the fiscal years run,,,,, |

One would have to look far and wide to uncover any rhetoric that apocalyptic said about previous presidents. Egads! Someone didn't pay attention when George W. Bush was in the Oval Office. I can't count the number of times when people called him a dictator. His presidency was repeatedly called a regime. me neither, I do think its childish. I thought he was not very bright or a very good representative for America, but I Didnt have any 'hatred' or 'condemnation' for him. He just wasnt right for that position, in my opinion. This president, the HATRED is far spread and the unsubstantiated claims are like nothing I have seen as far as the scope and number and REPETITION by what are supposed to be 'legitimate' and educated pundits/politicians/commentators,,,, |
