I have no problem with rational criticism of Obama. However, a lot of it isn't rational and a lot of it is clearly motivated by racial considerations.

In this paragraph from my last post name one question that isn't rational and is racially motivated:

The same people who yelled and screamed it was "patriotic and the right thing to do" when criticizing Bush and told people that defended him how stupid they were...... are now for the most part steadfastly defending Obama the same way those who defended Bush did. The difference is and it is a fact that people love to pull that race card on people that criticize Obama. When race truly has nothing to do with what are his plans in Afghaniston? Why do you cut vet benefits and still pay contractors HUNDREDS of MILLIONS? Why are you cutting benefits to the people and going on a 2 front war, when you criticized 2 front wars (Iraq and Afghanistan) before you were in power? Why did you bail out banks, when all they did was raise fees and interest rates and kept foreclosing on homes you funded an agency to help with yet, how many were ripped off and preyed upon and told to "wait" while they lost their homes? Why are people forced to pay more for meds than they make in a month? How do you live with yourself when you show nothing but contradiction and not leadership? True leadership is sticking by your beliefs right or wrong, not trying to appease people. Here's news you were elected president because a majority believed in you as a leader. Now lead for Christ's sake. Stop being a namby pamby and stand up for your beliefs. Life is too short to try to play both sides. The people who play both sides are usually starving for approval and will never get it by people who truly matter. This country has people with no job, no income, needing meds and you sit and bail out banks???????? And people who criticize this are wrong? wow......

Or am I going to be attacked again and told I'm bringing race into all this? Pathetic. And oh by the way people who defended Bush also criticized him. It's easy to say "well I criticize too." but ignore the hard questions and refuse to ask them yourself. Bush defenders did it with him, Obama's defenders do it with him also. To me there isn't much difference, except, instead of being "unpatriotic" you are now "racist".

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
