What does it say about your getting so emotional about discussions abut Obama? You should not get upset with honest ideas. He is a hard man to figure out and we should always try to understand our leaders.

Don't you think so?

It is a terrible thing for any society when people cannot have honest discussions without resorting to anger. Especially when they are aimed at trying to build a better and more humane country.

Do you really think people should not discuss politics and the job their government and president is doing? Are you only interested in defending your positions?

I am not bashing anyone, I am trying to understand what is going on. And I do not spin anything. People who get emotional defend a position more look for the truth.

I read the books on Obama by Richard Wolff, and Michael Lewis and listened to Elizabeth Warren and Dahlia Lithwick, chris Mathews and others I trust, and am mostly just recounting what they say. They are honest and informed people.

Much more informed than you or I.

Chuck Todd just wrote a book on Obama called: "The Stranger" and in the interview I saw yesterday he said exactly what I have been posting about Obama for many years now.

Obama is a loner, does not form political relationships very much and is a riddle.

Richard Wolff said Obama ran an outside game against Hillary and a inside game once he was elected. that is important information.

Chris Mathews said: "Obama left us at the alter".

Warren said Obama do not confront the plutocrats enough.

And Michael Lewis said Obama told the bankers he would "protect them from the public"

If that is all true and I think all of the above have squeaky clean reputations, isn't it important we understand that? .

Let's look at that closer.

No. I don't want to hear more of your Obama bashing. I am sick to death of you so called holier than thou liberals.

All of the gains made in the last 6 years have gone to the 1%. Middle class wages have actually declined a bit. The jobs you are talking about are low paying jobs.

No, they haven't all gone to the 1%. A lot of people who weren't working in 2008 are working again. All you're doing is spreading GOP BS to undermine Obama. Its enough.
