since before he was even sworn into office.

Why do you think so few of us still post on this web site? Why so few of us start OPs anyplace but in this group? Why even fewer have stars next to our names?

There has been a loud and libertarian meme for YEARS that he was merely a vessel for the Powers that Be. That he is an "empty suit" and a "slave" to the 1%. People here openly and loudly question his intelligence on a regular basis.

You see the polls and hear from actual liberals and Obama has a 85%+ approval rate. But yet, somehow, on the Intertubes where people can scream all day long about how "liberal" they are and then go and smoke a joint listening to their favorite Ron Paul speech, all of the liberals hate him and consider him a conservative. I don't buy it and never have.
