GD: "I still can't understand the hate ... towards President Obama"

[denem]

But isn't that we said about,

Hillary Clinton
Bill Clinton
Max Cleland

and now (even)
Nancy Pelosi

Truth is the first casualty of war
even a culture war:
You don't need an excuse
to hate.

1. Every president has been hated by some portion of the population

comes with the job.

5. Its the one thing freepers are good at

:shrug:

8. No side has a monopoly on this

bush was hated by the left for what it deemed valid reasons, obama and clinton were hated by the right for what it deemed valid reasons.

In either event, emotion often takes precedence over reason.

2. Criticism shouldn't be confused with hate. Bush, now that was hate.

[denem]

4. It was a comment about the RW.

Interesting take - the capital Left feels the same?

[pleah]

3. If they don't want to be hated by some, then they should

stand up for the people and not the corporations and banks. \\

PS: I don't hate the Pres. because I knew what we were getting.

[denem]

6. Wow. The LEFT speaks again.

Everything Clinton was the same as Reagan y'know.

[pleah]

10. So do you mean that you are for the corporations and not the people?

:shrug:

7. Culture War; Culture War; Culture War!!

11. The republicans are

a group of haters and people who urge violence. They can not stand for anybody other than a republican to be in charge. See how each of the senators and representatives, get upset when another one makes headlines. And they then come up with something outrageous to try to trump the other one. I suppose Palin has them all messing their pants trying to outdo her. Bachmann had a run at it and then went to far and I heard someone say she is being investigated. I hope so I have posted it in every list trying to get someone to take notice. I also send an email to C.R.E.W. and the ethic commission.

13. Didn't FDR say judge me by the enemies I make?

You should keep that in mind when discussing "hate"

[denem]

14. He said: "I welcome their hate".

Of course Obama has a milder personality, probably as smart, but still love that guy.
