I criticize Obama's policies.

Edited on Wed Feb-16-11 12:42 PM by cali

I try not to attack him personally when I do so. I don't always succeed, but I do not attack him for trivial purposes. I do not demonize him.

And I hate seeing that shit here, no matter how much I disagree with his policies.

3. Nice sentiment, but

can you quote any of the things you consider "shit"? Can you give examples?

One person's "shit" might be another person's criticism.

Peace,

12. I didn't say you had to name names

just paraphrase. Otherwise, your post has NO credibility.

"When people say things like 'blah blah'". That's NOT against the rules.

I just don't see the "shit" that you see.

Peace,

5. Yeah, but I dont think people bitching about trivial things isn't all that common

from what I've seen most of the time it's warranted.

7. I don't care about the man, just his policies.

Now GWB I berated personally, daily. Obama just needs to stop listening to the wrong people.

8. Gutless is a policy?

What about Michelle's garden?

There's a tinge of hipocrisy here.

11. As I said, I don't always succeed

but pointing out the irony of the White House garden when the Ag Dept is as pro-agribusiness as it is, is not a personal attack.

10. True and I can sit here and do so because so far his policies

have not come to harm me. Not so for the millions out of work and the millions out there newly homeless. Goodluck getting help.
