why are people mad at Obama?

[kingblaze84]

Of course.......Americans never do anything for humanitarian reasons & when they do it's only for OIL....why did this President run his campaign on false pretences then? IE he's gonna be transparent and transform this nation. How come these troubled countries in the ME/N Africa won't just cut us off & start taking care of thier own people and give them the freedom they deserve and want....why? Why do these countries think we sacrifice our own soldiers & we shouldn't expect something in return 4 our efforts? All these tribes fighting one another for power & Americans get caught in the middle every time.

Impressive post slick. Obama has a 42% approval rating now and deserves it because he's letting oil hungry corporations dictate his foreign policy. Obama has turned into a bigger failure for change everyday. It's hilarious how the same people who used to bitch and moan about Bush now support Obama CONTINUING Bush's horrible foreign policy. His domestic policy is all about following Bush's lead, like the good little lapdog he is.

Obama supports Bush's tax cuts for the rich, despite it bankrupting the country further. Benefits and jobs are being cut, and yet we have ANOTHER Middle Eastern nation to babysit. The same Middle Eastern nation that will turn on us, just like most of the Middle East has turned against us because of our blind support for Israel and us supporting dictatorships, ALL OVER the Middle East.

Obama, what the fuck happened to you man? What happened to the change you promised? All Obama has done is repeat almost to the T Bush's policies. Shame on anyone who now supports Bush's policies, all because Obama has no balls or no common sense.

After a brief resurgence earlier this year, President Obama's poll numbers are back in the dumps. A new Quinnipiac Poll released Wednesday finds Obama's approval rating at the lowest point in his presidency, thanks in part to voter angst over the economy and his handling of the situation in Libya.

Just 42 percent of those polled approve of the job Obama is doing, compared to 48 percent who disapprove, according to Quinnipiac. And in a bad sign for his upcoming 2012 re-election campaign, 50 percent of those polled say he doesn't deserve another term in the White House.

In January, Obama's approval rating was at 48 percent—the highest number it had been in more than a year, though still dramatically lower than his 59 percent approval rating recorded in June 2009.

What's to blame for the president's slump? For one thing, 60 percent of voters disapprove of Obama's handling of the economy, while just 34 percent approve--the lowest number of his presidency.

Meanwhile, Obama appears to have taken a hit over Libya. According to Quinnipiac, just 41 percent approve of Obama's handling of foreign policy—a new low. Asked specifically about Libya, 45 percent disapprove, even as voters are virtually split on whether intervening in the crisis was a good idea.

okay. here is my honest and humble opinion. I may be one of the rare few that is not mad at Obama.

People seem to be mad at Obama because he, a- isnt doing what they want him to do, or what he said he would do. b- isnt doing it fast enough. or c- both.

Im also noticing that people are not thinking or reasoning why things are the way they are. We are now that people of instant results, instant gratification, and watching to much CSI where the case is solved in one hour.

"Bring our troops home now." is one of the many current themes. And that was one of Obama's promises. But as he soon

found out, and that many others still have not, is it is not that simple. Everyday there are plots made, and plots foiled to

attack our country by terrorists. So yeah, lets hurry and get the troops home, they will feel so much better being bombed and attacked on their own soil .

The other ongoing rant is about money. I seen Donald Trump on CNN tonight. He seems to think since we get no oil from Libya,we should not be there, it has no effects on us, and that we are fighting for China, not once did he acknowledge the slaughtering of innocent civilians.

I was surprised by the ignorance of his comments. Even if we dont get our fuel from Libya, every action has a reaction. We

are globally connected, what affects China, can and will affect us, just look pick up damn near any item laying around, and turn it over. Its made in China.

Calling Obama "Bush" really? Bush was a trigger man, he pulled the trigger and talked, not asked questions later. I dont

see Obama doing this, its quite the opposite. He is methodical and thinks things through without making hasty decisions. This

is why it seems alot have people have grown impatient with him.

Impeach him? lol, really? On what grounds?

Replace him? With who? The next candidate who decorates a nice shiny portrait for you?

Considering the mess he inherited, alot have seemed to forget, he isnt doing a bad job. I think we are starting to take our Democracy for granted, if gone unchecked, things will get out of control.

LMAO........are you fucking kidding me??

Obama is CONTINUING Bush's policies, where is the change????

The Middle East hates us with a passion because we support dictatorships all over the Arab world, and we still give Israel blind support, despite the many settlements they are building on occupied land, along with the fact Israel is stealing land from Arabs everyday. Obama vetoed a UN resolution condemning Israel for its illegal settlement building, how do you think the average person in the Middle East feels about that? You think that's gonna decrease terrorism, or increase it?

Obama is Bush's third term, and that's the main reason most people dislike Obama these days. Obama has been a dismal failure, we might as well let Donald Trump be president. Both make stupid decisions all the time, might as well.

Oh and by the way, why are we still in Iraq? Bush never left.

Very profound.

It would appear that the platform which he used to ascend to power has evaporated into thin air.

Obama apologists had no clue who he was before he became president and cannot comprehensively explain what his policies are now.

I give George Bush for being somewhat consistent with his ideals whereas Obama seems to sway as the breeze goes. Always seeking to maintain his popularity even as it plummets.

 

[think]

There's a lot of smart posters in here. What do you guys think will happen to the economy? Are we headed towards martial law? Or will the economy recover anytime soon?

 

[kingblaze84]

Obama's slick enough to get NATO and the United Nations to cover for him. Bush never had the charm Obama had, Obama is taking advantage of that.

With that being said, Bush has been VERRRRRY QUIET during Obama's presidency so far. He loves Obama's policies too much to criticize him. Bush has become Obama's spiritual guide, in the words of Louis Farrakhan, he's trying to out bush Bush.

The economy is not looking too good for the future. Most of the new jobs being created these days are in the low paying service industry, where salaries run on avg of about 15 K per year. That's something you expect in China or Russia, but the USA is moving in that direction already. The rich are paying their workers less and less, and young people are going to become more and more desperate to make extra money. The economy is improving BARELY, but the real unemployment rate is around 15%, likely higher. Only 64% of Americans are participating in the legal workforce, so do the math. The only reason the unemployment rate is "8.9%" is because millions of people gave up looking for work. Who knows what they're doing, either going back to school or selling crack like so many people I know.

As far as martial law in the USA, nah I don't see that happening. Americans have vicious tempers, and although we put up with a lot, that's one thing that will never be accepted here.

America's future under Democrats or Republicans ain't gonna be pretty though. It's no wonder 70% of Americans believe things are going in the wrong direction. I worry deeply for America's future.

Maybe these little fellas are crying for reasons you'll never understand?

Inflation, here we come!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for bankrupting our future Democrats and Republicans. It's gonna be real fun paying higher for food and rent. That's just what we needed.

Obama's slick enough to get NATO and the United Nations to cover for him. Bush never had the charm Obama had-

except for the whole NATO/UN signing off on Afghanistan thing, right?

With that being said, Bush has been VERRRRRY QUIET during Obama's presidency so far. He loves Obama's policies too much to criticize him.

okay, in fairness to Bush, he DID declare this policy of "not commenting on Obama's presidency" prior to Obama stealing his policies

The economy is not looking too good for the future. Most of the new jobs being created these days are in the low paying service industry, where salaries run on avg of about 15 K per year. That's something you expect in China or Russia, but the USA is moving in that direction already.

wouldn't you expect low-paying jobs NOT in the service industry out of China/Russia?

Plus, Mr. Nobama aka obama is an illegal president.

 

[kingblaze84]

I wonder if Obama is what he said he was but once he got in Office he found out all that shit he was about b4 is bullshit....and he's stuck with what he wanted but he is so optimistic he thinks with more time he can slowly turn the ship....America is like the Titanic not a small boat....dem rich (white) folks will sink america b4 they let some idealistic black man make it more of a equal place....he is playing the hand he was dealt and yall niggaz quick to jump ship....pussys

Obama has many people in Congress that want to end the war in Afghanistan, and many people who want us out of Iraq sooner. Many didn't want his dumbass to get into Libya, but he did it anyway. Obama is the only one whose pussy. He's too pussy to stand up against his own generals, what kind of commander in chief is he?

Obama is a bitch. Straight up, and I know he is because I'm comparing him to men like MLK Jr and Malcolm X, men who weren't afraid to speak up for truth. If there are people who are stopping his agenda, he needs to call them out. Otherwise, he needs to stop pretending to be a leader and admit what he is: a puppet for the corporations that he's a slave to.

Obama should not have campaigned on hope and CHANGE if he knew he wouldn't have the balls to be a leader. Only someone whose a pussy in real life can't understand that.

people are always mad at the president. no matter what. as much as he led some people to believe, he's no different from the rest

All great points. But when you campaign on "change you can believe in" and don't actually deliver on fundamental changes....well then voters get upset.

Put it this way, every democratic candidate campaigns as if they are the second coming of FDR. Democrats and independents with a democratic slant WANT an FDR. I want my president coming through and back handing politicians. The republicans got their fearless military cowboy. Why can't Democrats get our fearless leader?

Why can't I get a leader who forcibly regulates the banks after they put my economy in a submission?

Why can't I get a leader who says, "Yo real talk you threaten my country by saying you're gonna relocate jobs or leave the country all together, it's fuckn over for you. And I got America with me."

Why can't I get a leader who puts politicians on record about their international agenda? "Yo Congress, emergency session, we bout to run through every dictator right now and state our official 4 yr American international military stance."

Why can't I get a leader who explicitly states YOU CANNOT FUCKN REDUCE SPENDING DURING A RECESSION YOU FUCKN MORONS.

If you're gonna campaign on change, then you should be rhetorically and logically crapping on every dumb idea you hear. Where's that political G that turned the Republican party to pudding. Did we all forget how ppl were forecasting the Republican party as the new Whig party after the election? They were facing extinction and democrats as a whole let them right back in. Damn shame.

 

[b*braze]

he need to just realize that roughly 50% of these crackers aint gonna like him no matter what he do, and jus do what the fuck he said he was gonna do. they already complaining that he "forced healthcare down their throat"(so fuckin stupid by the way... how dare he care about the health and well-being of others:/) he might as well start doin the rest of what he said he was gonna do.

thats one thing i did admired about bush. he was on some "playas do what they want to, and suckas do what they can" shit

 

[tupacfan35]

why are people mad at Obama?

people dont even know why they mad at him

Because he's a liar, a slick statesman and a puppet for the globalist banks.

 

[shootemwon]

YOU CANNOT FUCKN REDUCE SPENDING DURING A RECESSION YOU FUCKN MORONS.

If I could get one point across to the many retards who post in the SL....well, it'd be a tough choice, but this would be a finalist.

Because he's a liar, a slick statesman and a puppet for the globalist banks.

You've never even been to America, why don't you start obsessing over your own country's politicians.
