I’ve always been raised to respect the President, regardless of who he is or whether you vote for him or not. And after having to sit through eight years of liberal Bush Derangement Syndrome, I told myself I was never going to react to President Obama the same way. That’s just not how I roll.
But while I’m trying my best to respect President Obama, it’s becoming clear that he doesn’t respect me that much.
It started with Rush Limbaugh, and his telling senate Republicans that they can’t listen to Rush because he’s the reason things don’t get done. It’s you’re a-typical liberal belief. Their worldview is the only one that’s right, and if you disagree with them it’s not because you’ve read books and though aboot the issues, and simply came to a different conclusion. It’s because you blinded listen to talk radio and are too stupid to know any better. I live in New York; I get this from people all the time.
But it’s one thing when I’m dealing with douchebags at parties or on the Internet, or when it is Democrat activists like Andrea Mitchell and the cast at NBC News who think that. They’re all irrelevant to me. But when it’s my President who thinks this aboot me…I find that very offensive.
And besides being too stupid to know any better, according to President Obama I’m also un-patriotic. At least, that’s the context I took from him thanking the three sell-out GOP senators for their “patriotism.” Apparently you’re patriotic if you agree with him, which would make you un-patriotic if you don’t. It’s kind of sounds a little like what George Bush would say.
Come to think of it, George Bush also used the politics of fear to scare people into supporting a bill that no one in congress has read. And here I though voting for John McCain was a vote for the 3rd Bush term.
I’ll be honest; George W. Obama simply isn’t change I can believe in.

You’re absolutely right. Didn’t he tell us how different he was going to be from Dubya? He’s like all of Dubya’s faults to the tenth power, and he doesn’t even have the compensation of the former President’s sense of humor.
