Conservatives from day 1 of his Presidency have been focused on getting him out of office and they have made this clear.

And liberals were not focused on getting GWB out of office from day 1?

No.

I remember distictly the difference between what was going on in America in 2000 and what has been going on since day 1 of Obama's presidency.

The focus of FOX News and others on the right on getting Obama out of office became nauseating after the first 6 months.


In 2000, the hang up was on the election in the first place-- many thought that Gore should have won it. The focus was on making sure that the confusion never happens again. Then there was the dot com bust and the ............ economy. Dems were focused on getting a stronger hold on the House and Senate-- not on the Presidency. Then there was 9/11 and a brief period of solidarity.

Bottom line, it hasn't been the same.


Many conservatives became consumed very quickly on getting Obama out of office-- fed by FOX and other right-winged talking heads. My guess is that it was good for their ratings.

Furthermore, President Obama has not been the permanently campaigning for his re-election.

There has been so much going on during the last 3 years!

So you are a defender of President Obama and a Republican?

The reason Conservative have been trying to "get rid" of him is that he is leading in the wrong direction. He would lead us away from Capitalism and into socialism. Away from a Republic(representative) form of government to a Democracy (mob rule :heeheehee). From self sufficiency to a nanny state.

They wated to get rid of him from day 1!

He didn't even have a chance to lead when the nausea started.

Perhaps looking at his record. what he said during the campaign, and looking at who he surrounds himself with was a factor.

JD - whoever you are referring to as "they", I can guarantee you that I can find a "they" on the other side for GWB's term of office.
As for me, I wanted and hoped for BHO to succeed.
I wanted and hoped for him to bring us together and lead us to a more non-racial society.
I wanted and hoped for him to do the right things to bring this economy back.
But, he has been an outright disaster.
He squandered his first term on a healthcare bill, which will just accelerate our economic slide.
He has ONE accomplishment of which he can boast.
The killing of OBL.
