I hate to get involved in this sort of thread because they sometimes get heated. I know I'm very opinionated on this subject, and we all know opinions are like arseholes... we've all got one and they all stink.

So, here's mine:
BHO is a major left wing socialist. He has thrown all of the catch-words out there like "social justice" etc. This sort of person (politician or not) believes that those that are successful in life owe something to those who are less successful. It doesn't matter that I have worked about 70 hours this week already. I make too much money for a white guy, and I owe it to people that aren't so blessed. That's called wealth redistribution. One bad flag for BHO.

Another issue I have is this apologist attitude he and other lefties have towards the rest of the world. They believe that the big mean United States has been a bully all around the world. They think that's why radical Islamists want to blow us up. So he has been playing nice and sucking up and apologizing for all the mean things the US has done, and has not garnered the respect of anyone that didn't respect Mr Bush. He has likely lost respect over Mr. Bush.
The radicals want us dead because we are the devil to them. Nothing BHO can do to change their opinion.
If we are the big bully US, why are we dumping millions into Haiti to help those people suffering over there. We could sit back and let them deal with it. The truth is, any time there is a major conflict or major natural disaster, we are the number one country those suffering look to for help. We always give help when needed. Remember the sunami?


I think Bush the second was a far greater president than what we have today. I did have issues with him as well, but would take him back in a second. He sucked at public speaking, but he carried a big stick. The Iraq war is a big issue for a lot of people, but either way, that one was won under Bush, and the country is working on growing as a democracy.
Bush screwed up big time with bail-out number one. He regrets it too, but all the people he trusted to help make the decision told him it was the right thing to do.

Another big issue with BHO is the spending spree. I know people like to think every president spends like crazy, but BHO's budget is bigger than the budgets of George Washington to George Bush 2, and every president in between combined!! I don't think that's the way to grow the economy. If they were worried about the economy and no so much social justice, they would cut taxes on the middle class and on businesses so they could afford to start creating jobs again. There are countless studies and examples in the past that proof that is how to spurn the economy. Not by blowing through tax-payer money like skittles. The government doesn't do anything to make money. It simply takes it from us. At least businesses take money for providing a good or service, and they spend that money to continue doing business. That's how the economy works, or at least used to.

Ok, I'm done. I hope no one is angered by this, because I hate when these threads turn bitter. This is just one humble conservative's opinion on the current president.
