(29,082 posts)Just because I don't have much faith in his leadership because I find him to be a prevaricator who can't be trusted to do what he says he will. And I don't like people who say one thing and do another. I put up with 8 years of that under Bush. Seriously, I think I know the difference. Bush I despised to the point where the veins bulged in my forehead when I ranted. Obama has merely failed to live up to expectations. Probably no one could. We expected him to walk on water. I didn't know he wasn't willing to even get his feet wet. I do now.
I like the president's family. But they know criticism is sometimes part of the job. As for defending his actions to all the people attacking him, how am I supposed to do that and not look like you do? Because it has to be hard for you to defend at times too.
I don't have any hate I have to own. But if Google is where you learned about the Irish problems, you haven't lived the history my family has. There's a lot of Irish and Scots blood in this country. They don't have a history of bending the knee to anyone. They speak their minds to the high and mighty come what may.
