(20,805 posts)How the fuck do you get to that wild-ass conclusion from my post?
The same people decrying harsh criticism of Obama said similar things of the former president when he was in office, and pointing that out makes me a republican? Give me a fucking break. My point is that yes, it is expected for shit to be thrown at the president REGARDLESS OF PARTY, COLOUR OR SEX because that comes with the job. I have been on DU damned near since the beginning, and to be accused of being a republican, or supporting a republican is just about the must laughable and downright stupid thing anyone has ever posted about me on DU.
Re-read the post I was responding to, and then pull your head out of your backside. Obama is by a country mile better than either of the two people he has run against, but i will be damned if that means I have to cheer him on when he does things that are contrary to the party, or the country's best interest.
I suggest that YOU are the one the needs to "seriously get a grip".
