No, no, that's not true. We don't like it that it was an incompetent black man. Color had nothing to do with this dislike...(I'm told it's not nice to hate). So I'm not.
That is the thing the left will never accept. Hell, the fact a black man got elected President was exciting. Then we found out we elected an America hating, Muslim loving socialist for President was the problem. Had zich to do with what his skin color was. The left just has to beat that dead horse.
Yeah, I had hopes that he would be a unifier, but he was the opposite. Knew I wouldn't like his policies, but it was his taking up the mantle of "Divider-in-chief" that was disappointing. I almost voted for him in the primary to stop Hillary even though I figured he would be tougher for McCain to beat. My wife did. But he was every bit as divisive as HRC.
In all honesty the man could give a speech and was charasmatic as hell. I'm reminded of Clinton in the 90s. I was a kid but I thought Clinton was cool, eating McDonald's, playing the sax on Arsenio... Difference between Bill and Barry stopped there. I've heard many talk that during the Clinton years they had confidence in the economy. Not so much under Obama. Was he dealt a bad hand thanks to W, possibly, but after the first four years he never changed his tune. I never once heard the man accept blame or try to negotiate. W made a comment about a deal he got on a bill and it was something like, it's not the deal I wanted but it's the deal the people needed.
Obama didn't do that. I never saw him try to negotiate. He ruled by executive order. Obamacare was the worst. My wife is a nurse and she was excited for it but after awhile she hated it.
We never negotiate with terrorists. Obama gave what 4 Taliban leaders for a deserter, whom I'm not sure wasn't a traitor. I don't know wasn't there and can't tell you what happened nor do I expect to be that guy.

Ok fair enough. And 100% similar to the current white imcompetent bafoon we have in office now. Looks like we both agree.
Apparently there's a LOT of happy people that think he's doing a GREAT job. I'm in that group and in only ONE year. Oblunder couldn't do anything positive in eight years. You should stop watching the MSM, you're starting to sound like them.

Use em up. Get those race jabs in there. Because it's losing it's power to change minds. Like the boy who cried wolf. People are starting to see through you. And once that's gone. Then what do you got?
