Are members of DU generally in support of a Dem President or not?

129. Supportive, certainly

Critical where I feel strongly; but in general I don't express these views anywhere near DU. I just trash thread after thread. It's one thing to say "he could have handled that better and this is why I believe this", it's entirely another to call him names or use RW type slander against him.

I'm hoping for a change here as well--I can well understand dissatisfaction with policy but not combined with apparent ignorance of the political process. There are a few posters who still give great information-- too many have left. We also, in my opinion keep getting hit with trolls who doing nothing but cause trouble, which makes popular areas like GD a political ball of confusion

I don't expect Democrats to agree on everything--it's part of the beauty of the left. The anti-Obama sentiment has turned into a hate fest, to the point we needed a protected group to support our president. That was some time ago, and I haven't seen it get better.

The other thing that happens are the "sky is falling" posts speculating what he president is going to do-- posts without substance. This makes thing even worse.

I'll ride it out and wait for elections. For the first time in my nearly 10 years here, I have people on ignore. That is just sad.
