There's been about as much mud slinging and name calling


Posted: Nov 7, 2012

on this board today as there was in the election campaigns.  The fact is, Obama won the election.  He is our president.  I didn't vote for him, but he is still the president of the country where I live.  Instead of dissecting the election numbers and saying so-and-so committed voter fraud/suppression, why can't we stand together.  After all, we are the United States of America.  It doesn't mean we have to agree on everything, but we do need to band together to move our country forward.  Cool

When he does what he promises, I will stand (sm) - LM

with him. Until then, I won't. I almost puked today when I heard him yelling about reaching across the aisles. Who is buying this??? He didn't reach across the aisle in 5 years and you expect him to start now? Everyone keeps saying, he will have to find a way to work with Republicans. Are you all crazy? No, he doesn't have to find a way. All he has to do is issue an executive order or put a regulation into effect.

Your malice is a what voters rejected. We don't want - America to be like you. nm

For the last 4 years, the Republicans have been whining and refusing to play because they lost in 2008, and they just couldn't get over it. The party leaders have backed themselves into such a small corner that even they must realize now it has to expand if the party wants to survive. Here's hoping that more moderate Republicans will finally have the courage to step away from the party's right-wing lunatic fringe and actually try to help our country.

You should speak for yourself alone as in "you don't want" - I agree with her post - AND

We need more patriots like her. Her points are valid. Obama has talked aobut reaching across the isle (it was one of his campaign gimmicks the last election), but has never once tried to work with republicans. He doesn't even want to meet the half way. He won't compromise. When people see this then they should be able to say it. The last thing I knew this was the United States of America where people have the freedom to speak their minds. I'll bet North Korea wishes they were able to. Maybe that's the kind of government you would like where as long as a democrat was in nobody is allowed to speak their minds or disagree, but it's just not the way our system works. Whether or not you agree or disagree with issues everyone should have the right to speak their mind without being called names or have their patriotism questioned.

Thank you LM for your post.
The day I quit speaking my mind will be the day I die. Thanks. - LM

I only have one more thing to ask about Obama that - backwards typist

isn't favorable and that is.........why didn't he reach across the aisle in 2009? And don't give me the story that the pubs wouldn't work with him. They tried time after time, especially on the health care. This is when things went bad. He had a chip on his shoulder when he got in and it only got larger as the year went on.

Because he couldn't charm his way to victory with Congress, he chose to become divisive and blame all his problems on Bush and the pubs in Congress which makes him sound like a 2-year-old.

Now I'll behave and hold my tongue unless someone ticks me off by calling me a liar or worse.

Have a nice evening, must go.

He did. You don't believe it. Oh well. - Buh-Bye.

He did, he didn't like what they proposed, so he told them - to go _____. Fill in blank.

Yes, I remember. It was his way or the highway. - But now he will reach across the aisle.

Liar.
Yeah, certainly not holding my breath - for that one! (nm)

We Have To Stop Calling The Republican PartySep 24, 2012
a political party...they're not. They're a cult. Facts and reality do not matter to these people. They've morphed what was once a political party and blended it with some distortion of Christianity where they support policies that are complete contradictions of the teachings of Jesus Christ. They've convinced millions that the best way to achieve economic prosperity is through facilitating more power and wealth towards the greedy at the expense of everyone else. T ...

Does Name-calling Politics Improve Your Argument?Oct 15, 2013
"When we label someone, we do two things. We exert control over another person and assume our own superiority and power. We also dismiss or relegate the person being labeled to a status that is less fully human than our own. It is a combustible mix. The need to label typically emerges from our own insecurity, despair about our situation or a perceived threat from another." ...

Dem Leaders Enraged At Obama And OFA - Calling ItFeb 17, 2017
For those who don't know, Obama didn't get the memo about appropriate behavior for former Presidents.  Like some deposed dictator in exile, he's sitting like a spider in his DC walled castle, agitating and fomenting unrest in the nation that tossed him and his surrogate to the curb. I was hoping Democrat leaders wouldn't wake up to the fact that things like BLM and OFA are only going to hand them another debacle in 2018 because the majority of Americans don't stand ...
