39. Last week I listed one example of good things Obama has done after another to this poster

After each one he essentially held his arm out and said "talk to the hand". He considers Obama the worst president in history and is consistantly calling for one term at best, and a cold dark cell in the Hague at worst, and no, he didn't like Clinton either. He admits he despises the Democratic party at large as much as he hates the Republicans. He refers to the Democratic Party as "your party".

When pressed for an alternative, he dodges. To say he hates Obama is a gross understatement to the point that Sean Hannity would advise he rein it in for the sake of common decency, so you do the math.

Since our exchange last week, one DUer has me on ignore, and I really hope it's him:
