2. I agree that some expressions of negative emotions toward President Obama are unjustified
But are all expressions of negative emotions created equal?

7. I don't know what you mean, but I don't like his pro-war stance
I'm sick and tired of seeing government after government, ever since the Soviet Union went south, starting wars and conflicts everywhere. Bush senior, Clinton, Bush junior, and now Obama, have behaved like imperialist war mongers like the world hasn't seen in a long time. We got to get out of this place, guys.

These FRAKKING wars & controlling the proliferation of nuclear weapons are #1 for me.

27. I just had a DNA test done and found out he's half
Alaskan Malamute. So he really likes the cold. He likes to cuddle for a while, but I think the electric blanket is just too heat much for him.

46. Dogs think their rear ends are the center of the universe.
So they tend to believe their butt belongs in the center of the bed. Which is better than having dog feet pointed at you, I guess.

This really shouldn't be that difficult to understand.

55. Hyperbole building on those negative comments
and calling for mounting violent revolution with absolutely no regard for real world consequences.

Naive belief in that old rubric about watering the tree of liberty with the blood of tyrants without considering a lot of other blood usually gets added to it and with a very poor outcome.

Complete ignorance of the fact that the Liberty Tree is represented now only by a small plaque on the side of a building in an X-rated theater district.
