Oh how things have changed. Not that long ago, the 60's and 70's when people had a beef with the government, it was "The Man" who did all the damage. Now it's either republicans or democrats. IMO, I believe it to be apathy and greed are the real culprits of todays issues. America was built on the strength of its citizens and the union they formed. Both sides have their demons and as such, are still "The Man".

Until last night you could have said, "tossing a baseball".
But since he tosses a ball like a girl, she's even on par with him in that respect.

She's an athlete who very likely can not only outrun the guy (she runs long distances regularly), but would also be able to THROW a baseball... I doubt she'd just "toss" it...
People are "hating" her because that's that the media is telling them they should do. If the governer of Texas was a good-looking female, they'd hate him too, because they are SCARED AS HELL of these people who seem to actually understand how governments are suppose to work, as evidence by the way they run their states...Darin E.

As this thread was started by a Kanadian,,,maybe another Kanadian can end it......
If you don't like whats going on in politics in your country,,,run for office, then make changes.
All other whining and complaining is just that,,,,,and accomplishes nothing.

I second Doby's motion. We had a Prez for 8 years that did NOTHING for the average American except tell lies and kill American soldiers and now that we have someone that is at least trying to help the average citizen, some are bad-mouthing him. Poor losers, sour grapes. GET OVER IT! Do something to help your country rather than tearing it down!
OK, off the soap box. Preparing for incoming barrage. Eeeeeek.Mini Cat Racing USA

No barrage...
But I'd love to hear some examples of how you think he's "helping the average citizen"... The term "average citizen" here actually needs to be clarified, because it infers the middle-class, and there is NO evidence what-so-ever that he's doing ANYTHING to help promote that in this country. NONE!Darin E. Jordan - Renton, WA

If you call record spending "trying".
I didn't support Bush, I wouldn't support Palin and I don't support Obama either. I wonder why you would call people poor losers for expressing their opinions.
That is after all, how this thread started.
And Doby, I don't have the cash to run for office, I'm raising five kids. All I can do is vote!Comment

What? Darin, please, have you been paying attention or just drinking the koolaid of the GOP, listening to FAUX news, Limbaugh, etc.
Passing meaningful health care reform for starters will help the average american by helping reduce the cost of it!
Hopefully getting us eventually the hell out of Iraq will help the average american by stopping the bleed on our economy this ill begotten war has created.
Stopping the no-bid contracts by the pentagon, etc. will help the average american by stopping the squandering of our treasury on over-priced under-performing greedy bastards associated with Cheney.
For starters. The guy's been president for LESS THAN 6 Months and immediately you want results Bush couldn't produce in 8 years? 8 years of inheriting a surplus and leaving us with the largest deficit ever?Mini Cat Racing USA

The only motivation for far too many people to complain about Obama is they are sore losers. The man hasn't been in office long enough to enact any of his reforms that could pull us out of this mess. But there are those that rather than trying to do something positive and encourage someone to do something just want to criticize. It drives me nuts.

Steven,
What drives me nuts is you guys won't even give him a chance!
Like I said before, Bush gave away $700 billion with no strings attached. The current administration's additional stimulus had HEAVY strings attached. Furthermore, $87 billion has been repaid WITH interest by some banks that Obama held their feet to the fire.
You're not old enough to remember the Savings and Loan debacle in the 80's. People screamed and yelled back then too because the government bailed out failed thrifts. In the final analysis, the government MADE A PROFIT on it.
I am better off because I don't have to apologize to all of my friends around the world for a horrible president and his lies. Financially? I'm holding my own just fine.
My wife, on the other hand, lost her job over a year ago...UNDER BUSH's failed economy and still can't find work.
OK, that's it. I'm gonna
Gotta stay friends here. I get pretty riled up!
