Where's the Anti-Obama sentiment I've come to expect?

President Obama is in South Korea, supporting our troops and criticizing North Korea (and supporting capitalism). Clearly another sellout to the capitalists and neo-cons, right?

I think that perhaps you are (deliberately) confusing anti-Obama sentiment with Anti-Obama-policy sentiment.....

Some people are a tad too sensitive and take any criticism of his policies as an attack on their hero. It gets labeled as ODS because then you can dismiss the message as another attack and not address the issue at hand.

Some of us know that the policies he pushes come from the pentagon or neocons at state and he is as much a victim of them as we are.

So this is news to me.

Truth is, at this point I'm past Obama, and looking forward to 2016!

From my POV PBO is no longer of any use to me and has not been of much use for quite some time. Yeah I am still fucking bitter about the whole public option thing and his lies about the public option during the election.

My only concern is how much more will he give to the 1% before he leaves office.
