I am amused in a sickened way by the people who support Obama and don't even keep track of his speeches. No one yelled "you lie" at a State of the Union address.
Or, just sick, in an amusing way.
I'm more sickened at those who actually want to turn a deaf ear and a blind eye, to those who caused the problem we are in right now, while all of a sudden, being those who supposedly have all the answers when no solution was forthcoming from any of them when we needed it most, between 2000 and 2008.
At least Clinton, left Republican leadership and multi-hundred billion dollar projected surplus when he left office. What did Republican leadership do that that? They blew it on an illegal war that lacked any righteous causation or justification. In fact, they blew it on a total lie about a nonexistent threat to national security. That same leadership proceeded to get hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women and children in Iraq/Afghanistan, killed for no reason whatsoever other than transnational oil contracts - period.
Yet, you can hold such disdain for Obama, when he was wise enough to speak out against the invasion in the first instance.
Face it - you dislike Obama, for "other reasons" that have no logical connection to his policies as President in the aggregate. There might be one or two policy missteps that he needs to account for, but on whole, he has done nearly precisely what he needed to do as President, given the last minute hurricane that came in the form of the global economic meltdown just before I got elected.
Obama is a media hog so I understand that it would be hard to keep track of all of his addresses.
So, when this President promised to keep in touch directly with the American People during the campaign, which is something that he talked about a lot before 2008, by doing town hall meetings and remaining in constant contact with the American People, he's labeled by the Right as a "Media Hog." If President Obama, shut himself inside the White House and never came out like some executive hermit, then the Right would label him completely unwilling to remain in touch with the American People.
This is precisely the kind of thing that the Right as been doing since before Obama's inauguration - attempting to set-up the President up for failure, by establishing phony causalities for "why" he failed. All the while, never being intellectually honest about the double standard analysis of his performance at all. That's the height of hyper-partisan hypocrisy.
But at least try to tell the difference between the State of the Union and Obama's other speeches.
Now, that's amusing. You tracked his speeches so well, that you don't even understand why he's been in the "Media" as much as he has, when that's precisely what he told you that he would do out on the campaign trail.
At least attempt to keep track of reality.
Unbelievable!
