Obama is the most disrespected President in America's political history

Thanks for taking the first link out of context... did you watch the video? Second link... do you know what a tax cut is? And "95% of working families" was what he said in that link. Also, has he imposed a VAT Tax yet.... no so the discussion is void. Thanks for trying to misinform people in the spirit of Fox News.

Out of context? In no uncertain terms, and at various moments during the 2008 campaign, Obama stated his opposition, in principle, to an individual health insurance mandate. You can try to spin that however you want, but no amount of pedantic spinning will change the absolute fact that Obama's position on the individual mandate has rotated a full 180 degrees since the campaign.

He opposed the mandate during the campaing, but once he became president, then he supported it. That means that he was lying to everyone during the campaign and as such deserves to have scorn heaped upon him for being a decietful and corrupt liar that is not worthy of respect either as a person or as president.

In regards to taxes, he campaigned on the promise of cutting taxes for 95% of Americans. Furthermore, he promised, in absolute terms, that he would not raise any taxes for anyone making less than $250k/year. The healthcare reform bill raises many taxes that people making less than $250k/year will have to pay. Taxes on medical equipment, tanning salons, medications, and health insurance plans were all included in the bill. This makes Obama a liar, and that's a FACT.

I think he deserves whatevers coming to him. Bush was hated, why can't people hate Obama?

What's up with this crazy amount of hated towards our current president?

Shattered007

None of this has ever happened with any other president.:|

Nearly every president gets a ton of hate from people. I've never seen this much hate from actual elected officials however. Its probably at its worst since Southern congressmen and Abraham Lincoln. wstfld

The Bush years say hello.

Don't waste your time attempting to reason with someone like that.

Oh don't forget, our premiums won't increase, we're not going to have a shortage of doctors, and our quality of care won't be impacted.:lol:

Which is among the reasons why politics is a topic you don't bring up in the workplace.

That's not at all professional or appropriate.

Obviously its because all white conservatives are racists. I mean, just the other day Newt Gingrich called Obama an athlete. AN ATHLETE !!!! I mean, can you be any more racist than that? I know its racist cuz Nora Odonell at MSNBC told me so.

Poor Barack must cry himself to sleep every night. I know I do just from thinking about how mean people are to him.

perhaps the most disrespected with the least warrant for it.

personally I like the guy though.

Bush had his share of haters as well. It pretty much comes with the office. Not saying that is justified however.

I guess that Bush does fade from memory that fast...

as a Canadian I dont think you should judge him so quickly. He hasnt been president for more then a year now so i think when he is your president for at least a year you can start complaining about him unless it is really bad

I don't understand why so many Americans are so against gouvernment run health care. It's not perfect but it works fine in Canada. Isn't better to be able to get the treatment you need from the gouvernmentsystem instead of needing insuranse or you're screwed?

I thought Bush was the most hated?

TC, you are wrong. That would be Bush II.

does anybody remember history class and the kind of respect Lincoln got during his time

In genereal I don't think he is, there's a radical movement against him larger than other presidents though. However if a poll had been taken about every president (while they were president) simply asking do you respect the (current sitting president) he'd be far from the most disrespected in history.

I wouldn't want to be president after Bush, that's for sure. No matter what change you try to implement, you're still screwed because of that guy.metallica_fan42

That's funny. If you analyze Obama's performance, his administration would look a lot like Bush's third term in office.

I think that title may belong to George Bush, actually.

[QUOTE="Godly_Cure"][QUOTE="Acemaster27"] Well he did pass some health care reform that Dems have been trying to get through for 40 years now. So that's definitely change.L_17

No one in America, including illegal immigrants goes without healthcare. Federal law already prohibits turning away those seeking care. That's why we didn't need Obamacare.
