No, no, don't get me wrong, I am a strong supporter of Obama, although I often have disagreed with his policies for not going far enough to really offer the "changes" promised.
I can't wait for him to be out of office for other reasons......I'm not positive if its just Obama's mixed-race, his often "professorial attitude," his penchant to avoid direct confrontation with his critics........but whatever it may be, the last 6 years have witnessed the rise of the ugliest segment of our population expressing rabid hatred, discord, acrimony, and distrust of our own government.
Like any cancer that once was dormant, Obama has caused many on the right to revert to (in some cases) outright racism and bigotry, and in other cases to almost seditious attitudes...........a malady that will only be fully cured after this generation of older, white [especially] males (a demographic that I happen to be part of) dies out of existence.
Nonetheless, following the analogy of the "cancer" affliction, I can't wait until it goes into remission.....a condition that may only happen once Obama is out of the WH.
I understand where you are coming from there. I can't help wondering if we would have had more progress if McCain had been elected. We almost surely would have had immigration reform (a la Kennedy-McCain). We might have had a climate bill by now (a la McCain-Lieberman). Probably would have even had some common sense gun regulations.
And Sarah Palin would have been up there "making policy." That dingbat didn't know the job of VP and was asked twice.![]()
I'm just talking about how there would not have been the degree of outrage out there over the policies of a freckly "war hero"
