Barack Obama
Related: About this forum"How dare this President be a President?"

There is nothing Republicans hate more than when the President does something seemingly impossible... ...be it take down a Somali pirate, institute health care reform, kill Osama Bin Laden, or attempt negotiation in the middle east rather than wasting lives and money on a war that does nothing... ...and succeeds. Basically it's this: How dare this President be a President? How dare he use his powers and his elections in the manner in which he believes he was elected? This is what the guy was elected FOR: To pursue his vision of what this country should be. This is the guy I voted for - the one that negotiates before he fights but when that negotiation fails, will war with everything he has. I just didn't expect that war to be with traitorous sore losers within the United States House and Senate. So on yet another issue - like gay marriage, health care and so many others - the Republicans are out of step with the country, the world and the time. And watch from the sidelines threatening to unravel it because they have no forward plan of their own. Good for Obama, on Iran. We should all hope this works, and the world becomes safer without a missile being fired. If you can't at least agree to that, you're saying you'd rather have the world fall to crap than this Democrat succeed at anything. And that makes you a lousy American. - Steve Marmel Http://Facebook.com/TheMarmelPage

Major Hogwash
(17,656 posts)President Obama has moved the hands of the so-called "Doomsday clock" back at least 10 minutes.
This historic agreement is the biggest foreign policy coup since the Camp David accords that President Carter accomplished during his time in the White House.
Which proves once again, Democrats are for peace.
We don't start wars, we end them!

(91,523 posts)Nothing pisses the Republicans off more than these achievements. Every time he pulls off another unbelievable success, they piss and moan and stamp their feet. They act like spoiled petulant children.
The world is watching the Republican party implode. They are being watched as the masks slip away, what the world is seeing is their soullessness laid bare.
Thank you babylonsister, great writing by Marmel.

(6,151 posts)indeed all Democrats. Their own followers are bound to them by negative emotions of greed, fear and mutual hatred of the 'other'. No real love and respect involved. But they can also see that President Barack Hussein Obama has earned the honor and devotion rightfully showered upon him. In short, somewhere deep in their bones they know they're hardly fit to tie his shoes.
