Feb, with all due respect to your view on our current President, we all lived through eight years of the most vitriolic, hate filled, slanderous language about President Bush and VP Cheney. Now all of the sudden when we have a President who is fundamentally trying to change this country into a European style socialist system while incurring trillions in debt that will have to be paid by my children and grandchildren we are being chastised for our disdain toward this man child?!?!?!?.

I can assure you I respect the office of the President way more than the current occupant does and I have way more respect and love for this country than he ever will. He thinks you and I are fundamentally racists. He thinks this country is the cause of the problems in the world instead of the solution. He is a living, breathing declinist and is not only glad to see us getting our due but is actively promoting it. He deserves every name I have for him, whether it be the Messiah, Oblamer, the man-child or whatever.

Remember, Saddam Hussein was President of Iraq but that didn't make him worthy of my respect. Achmidiniwackjob is President of Iran and he isn't worthy of my respect. Hugo Chavez, Castro, Putin and on and on. At least with some of them they have the guts to admit openly their desire to destroy our way of life unlike Mr. Obama who does it surreptitiously. I had no love for Bill Clinton but I will give him credit for at least marginally wanting what was good for the country as long as he got a little action along the way. But Mr. Obama is a different sort of person and I cannot and will not show him any respect unless he earns it. And so far he has not even come close. When he does I will change my tune but not until then.
