I've gotten to the point I can't stand listing to Obama's voice. Every time someone puts him on, I fast forward or pull my ear plugs out of my ears. This must be how all those people felt about George W. Bush a couple years ago. Sick of him and sick of everything he says before he says it.
Having said this, I cannot say that I hate Obama. I just don't want him to be president any more. I just know that the next election will be close if there is anyone on the Republican side who can stand up to the task. The only chance that Obama will not win reelection in my mind is a black female republican coming out of the weeds and taking the reins. This is not going to happen.
Are all U. S. Elections going to be based on which produced group is most sympathetic? This is no way to run a country. We have a long list to go through. Gender, sexual preference, We will need a Jew a Hindu a Pagan. Then comes the nationality question. it says the U. S. president must have been born in the U. S.. Isn't that un-PC?
It is not lost on conservatives that Obama has done most of the same things that Bush did and yet, the press have given Obama a break and the benefit of the doubt on every turn, every time. GWB was pummeled every second for everything. The pure hate came out. When there was nothing to hate, people made stuff up. Still do.
The class of person that is really catching it in teeth right now is conservative women. Any strong conservative woman who sticks her head above the battlement gets it bit off by the press. Again, people are living their lives to discredit these women. When these women make the decisions that feminists have fought to give women the right to make the that decision, those feminists condemn these women for making the decision.
The hate pouring out of our press is staggering. Many in the press don't know they are bias because they are surrounded by other people in the press who believe very close to the same thing they believe in. They seem to believe they are all in the middle. This happened because of a several decade long trend of liberal people taking over academia. There are precious few conservative in the area. People who are conservative and believe in conservative values are systematically weeded out of the path to fields like academics and communications. Add on top of this trend that conservative people will typically gravitate to field where You "do something" rather than just talking about it. Engineering comes to mind. This is far from 100%. It does happen.
Liberal or progressive or whatever folks call themselves this week are still pissed over the defeat in 2004. They genuinely feel that the election of GWB was stolen from Gore. Their guy was ripped off. I'm not sure what to think about this. I cannot blame them for being upset. I can blame them for playing dirty at every point from then on. Politics is becoming a field where the last person standing gets the job. Honest people don't want in. You have to be crooked to afford to play. Which side your are on doesn't seem to matter any more.
Hate is a bad thing. Hate is even worse when you do not realize you hate. Hate is at it's worse, when it is disguised as right, balance and good.
