46. Whose blaming Pres Obama for everything?

Sat Sep 30, 2017, 05:37 PM

Sep 2017

I happened to have had disagreements with him on a several things during his 8 years as President. You're never going to agree with anyone on everything. I never agreed with my late parents on everything, and they were my PARENTS who I loved dearly. I voted for Pres. Obama 2 times, but just because he's president doesn't mean I have to co-sign with everything that he said or did. I agreed with most of what he did during his 8 years in office but not with every single thing. As you know, there was a time when Pres. Obama wasn't on board with marriage equality. HE eventually came around to the decision that I thought was right, which was supporting marriage equality. What, I should have just agreed with him even when he didn't support marriage equality? I guess you were on board with him when he didn't support marriage equality, correct?

Again, NO ONE is immune from criticism. NO ONE. This is not North Korea, this is America and if I disagree with something concerning Pres. Obama or with ANY president or elected official that I vote for that's my right to do so. I've told you already that I won't do sheeple for you or for anyone. Sorry. Now, you're welcome to do sheeple if you like.
