(2,730 posts)talking about? Which enemies are imagined? Domestic spying on whom? Utter contempt for which rule of Law and what Constitution? Which movie have you seen before the Republican or Democratic?
He is better than the Republicans or any rightwinger. I don't think Obama is deceiving anybody, muchless he thinks that he is doing the right thing. Paranoia, that isn't President Obama. There is not a paranoid gene in his DNA, but it might be arrogance. Cronyism, I doubt that either, but he might be loyal to his friends.
Suppression of the Free press, what free Press? They are all owned by private individuals and Corporations. Most of them agree with what he is doing until he gets out of line, then you see the revenge. Illegal bombing of civilians, where was the Press doing the Bush Administration? That is what he gets when you trust snakes. You never know when they will turn around and strike you in the back. It is more like appeasement for acceptance to the group. He just forgot who gave him power and who he is working for.
And if you are so upset, run yourself or go out and recruit a candidate. It doesn't have to be Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden. That is like taking your marbles and running home. You can even start a grass roots petition you get a person to challenge the establishment. There has to be somebody in politics you trust?
