You can't be talking about Obama, that's for sure. I don't trust ANYONE who goes to court so that they can have the ability to read my damn emails. You shouldn't either.

Are you saying that Bush was the last president that we could trust? Or are you saying that Obama is like Bush? And, if not these two things, what ARE you saying?

The blind Obama loyalists have usurped this board... really sad to see them support war, then think BHO and Kerry are masters of the universe when the game changed through other means.

Do they trust this POTUS with SS, Medicare?????!!!!

And did ya ever see BHO fight so hard for something positive on the domestic front the way he was pushing for launching missiles against Syria!

ya know how defensive some people get if you question their faith. That is how blind Obama loyalists get if you question their faith.
They get so defensive because other than faith they have no facts to hang on to.

by the way I like your term "Blind Obama loyalists" -much better than, less offensive than "Obamabots" which is a term I've heard-

Wonder why this board is so tipped to one side?

Can the numbers here reflect Dems in general?

--- surely NOT.

They are just so vociferous, the blind Obama loyalists. They drown everyone else out. Haven't you noticed that their posts start out a little rude, and then get progressively worse is you dare to rebut them? I've got about thirty people on my Ignore list now.

maybe they are just louder than everyone else.
I am always happy to encounter other people who are not b.o.l.

I trust he"d pay it back...however, I don't trust him to fight for Liberalism. For one, I think he's too Centrist, but the real issue is that he"s too pragmatic. He'd rather not fight than lose. Sad, he could have been in the top 5 POTUS club.

I cannot help but believe that he is a sincere, thoughtful, intelligent person and I'm glad to have him in the Oval Office and not McCain, Romney, et. al.
