I believe it's akin to the treatment George Bush received. Attack, attack and attack some more. Eventually hoping some of it sticks.

We'll see if it works toward Obama the same way it worked toward a decent person like Bush. The criticism toward Obama is no where near the level of vitriolic hatred thrown at Bush. Yet, the sensitivity of Obama supporters is much higher than Bush supporters. And of course the press is nothing but a bunch of lap dogs toward Obama as compared to Bush.

Those who support Obama seem to think he is above criticism. The truth is he's a politician just like all the others. He does some things right and a heck of a lot of things wrong.

The only difference between liberal Obama and liberal Carter is Obama spends and then taxes, and Carter taxed and then spent. The same outcome will occur. A few years from now economic stagnation will be the norm (think European economies), higher taxes will be the norm and government spending will continue to go through the roof.

Where are the cries from the media over the 350K dollar government waste for flying an airplane for a photo-shoot, as compared to the treatment a few CEO's received flying their private planes to D.C.?

Of course, we can't criticize that, because it might lead to Obama's doorstep.

Let's all watch the identify politics circus come into play for the PC crowd regarding the Supreme Court appointment. Forget whether he or she is qualified, Team Obama will need to find a gay - hispanic -partial birth abortion supporter to fill out the court, instead of locating the most qualified person in America.

And if anyone criticizes the decision, they will be labelled a homophobic racist.
