The bottom line

[Kath1]

President Obama supports world peace, women's rights, minority rights and economic fairness. That is why I supported him in a nutshell. And I know he won't let me (us) down!

3. Thank YOU, for your contributions here, freshwest!

I'm still high on the election results! So nice to have a President to be proud of!

2. Social Security, Medicare, Keystone Pipeline,

..continuing to keep the Patriot act in tact....... Those broken promises or the discussion of breaking them leave me disappointed.


The Party here on the blue west coast are growing more discouraged everyday with him.

4. This is the Barack Obama Forum so

please do your "disappointments" elsewhere.

[Kath1]

5. Thank you, Cha!

Just getting ready to reply when I saw your post. I can't think of another candidate who could have brought such positive change - socially, economically and internationally, in such a short period of time. Very proud of my President , BOG and OFA!

[Cha]

6. Yeah, I am too, Kath..

thank you for posting!

[Kath1]

7. Thank YOU!

Love it, sister! Great things still to come! Reeaally looking forward to all of it. Great times ahead for all of us.

8. +1

10. Indeed. You're only welcome to speak if you agree with us.

That's the American, democratic way.

11. This is the BOG so yeah, there is a Mission Statement.. those

are the rules for the Groups on DU.

I understand there are those who don't want to follow the rules but that's too bad for them.

12. They can post elsewhere.

13. Don't upset the cheerleaders

You'll bring them down. Happy people hate hearing how or why others might not be as happy as them.

[Cha]

14. Sorry, I don't think you have any power to

affect this forum one way or another.

19. Instead of

making snarky comments, how about reading the BOG's mission statement?

[CheapShotArtist]

18. So I guess

his other accomplishments don't really matter, then.

Just because of a few unwise decisions, you're automatically disappointed in him?
I just love how people conveniently forget about all the things he has done that have actually benefited the country, and the type of Congress he has been forced to deal with.

9. Thanks Kath,

I needed a breath of fresh air!

BOG

15. He won't let us down.

Socialist presidents in Spain and Greece up and resigned when they got to this particular juncture. Now I see why. BO won't throw in the towel but getting flack from all sides has got to be completely demoralizing and discouraging, so I hope his family friends and faith help him get through it and I hope it ends soon.

p. s. this is basically the point Clinton was at when Ms Lewinsky came his way.

[freshwest]

17. Thanks.

[greatauntoftriplets]

16. Well said, Kath1!!!

[Politicub]

20. I trust him implicitly

And can only roll my eyes at all of the melodrama on the front page.

Thank goodness for the BOG!

[LeftInTX]

21. I don't understand why he put Chained CPI on the table, but I still support him

I think he's being overly bashed and I feel the best approach is to try to understand why he is supporting it. And to write letters to him and/or congress. Sure everyone has a right to be angry and every political leader will anger or disappoint at some time.

It would be great if throngs of Dems gathered in the streets with "Hands off my Social Security" signs (like the Tea Party with "Hands off my Medicare&quot . But that's not happening, so what can anyone do?

Instead Dems are attacking Dems on the internet. This is what the Republicans want.

My little rant. Thanks for listening.
