I am bone-tired defending President Barack Hussein Obama...

42. I guess you were one of the ones that fell in love with Obama during the 2007/8 primaries

(Or even the 2004 DNC keynote speech.)

I don't follow someone just because he's attractive, people have to prove themselves and Obama's proven to be another Clinton (which isn't good because Clinton was a third way, DLC Democrat, nice and charming but just another corporatist. I don't see the logic in liking someone just because you'll enjoy being screwed more than you would with the Republicans.

Oh, and BTW I find it interesting that many Obama fans totally disregard Obama's "harsher than Bush" foreign, surveillance, and immigration policy. It doesn't really matter to you that we continue to kill so many innocent civilians in Afghanistan with drone strikes (more than 2,000 so far), that the NSA under this administration is building a center to conduct even more intense communications spying (internet, cellphone calls, etc...) and will let the NSA spy and track more than a million people through multiple forms of communication, that Obama has continued rendition (that allows the U.S. to torture detainees in other countries, free from U.S. law), and that Obama has been harsher than Bush on Immigration Policy, with record deportations (record family breakups) about 1.5 times more than Bush.
