repeatedly point out
1. ALL opposition to Obama from the right is based in RACISM and NOTHING else
2. Obstruction of this man was unprecedented and yet he still somehow managed to preside over a rather remarkable recovery
3. Righty (and some who claim to be lefty) will never give him the credit he deserves.

(81,861 posts)Do you believe that opposition to Obama from the right is based solely on race? I wonder what Clinton and Carter would have to say about that.

(222 posts)Sorry, I disagree with your first statement. Racism has a LOT to do with their opposition but the right are comprised of a lot of spoiled brats in adult bodies who are absolutely certain they are right, so right in fact that anyone who disagrees with them are enemies of the state. They throw massive tantrums when they don't get what they want.
I'm pretty certain future historians will give Obama a lot more credit than we give him today.

I cant think of a single thing they didnt support before he was for it other than maybe Gay marriage.
Yes, they will ALL hate any democrat because they are children who cant admit they are wrong
But Obama was special to them...
Something changed when Gingrich came in, he was the originator of hate the other party for no reason.
So I concede that it started with Clinton, but the right can ONLY see his skin color

(21,115 posts)and that is why they bristle about you pointing out about the Rightwingers hatred based on skin color. They know that a mentionable percentage of their compatriots have the same issue with it too...
