I like the expansion of government hiring in International Relations with regards to Arab Relations
I dislike how he bent over backwards to appease Beck and his complainers when chances are that about 95% them didn’t vote for him to begin with.

He’s failed to put cons in detainment centers. Instead, he’s trying to have a “dialogue” with them.
You don’t try to have a “dialogue” with a rabid dog!

I dislike that he is destroying America, but I like that he is also destroying the liberals and the Democrat party, unless the Democrat Party gets wise and boots the liberal hordes out before it’s too late, to save their party*****************

One thing I like it that we have endured almost 11 months and with each passing day, we are closer to the next election and, hopefully, a way out of this mess.
The other thing…. what I dislike is how polarized our country has become. I hate that people on both sides are constantly battling and the best interests of our people and our country seem to have suffered.
I’m a registered independent as I hope to be able to step aside and see what each side is up to. We have a huge mess on our hands. We need fresh blood in DC and term limits. If we can’t get term limits, the people have to set the limits by voting out incumbents.

I just love that we have been over run by people who admire and respect a communist who killed 70 million of his own people. I love government bankrupting our nation and devaluing our currency. I will just love it when no matter what I earn, the government will confiscate all of it because they have dug a hole so wide and so vast no amount of money will ever fill it, I just love people who tax me for exhaling CO2 and claim that I am ruining the planet, I just love it when government attempts to control everyone and everything. I can’t wait for Obama’s next move which is to sign away our sovereignty to a one world government which plans to redistribute our wealth to not our poor, but all over the world…essentially making us all equally poor.
Yeah, I just love this guy who sucks at everything he has ever done in his life, (including writing books about himself that someone else wrote) who is letting the most radical fringe elements steal away all our rights and money…It is so refreshing to see government take control of EVERYTHING and EVERYONE so we don’t have to think for ourselves…we will just let all the Hope and Change take care of us.
(Yeah…I am being sarcastic…can’t wait to vote these communists out of power but by then they will have destroyed a once great nation…thanks everyone appreciate it).

The one thing I like is that his presidency is acting so corrupt and/or incompetent that it’s forcing people to wake up and wake up fast. If we had only a moderate failure of a president like normal, people likely would have just let things continue on as always.
The main thing I dislike is his seeming complete misunderstanding of the purpose of the federal government within the United States and his role in that government as President. He seems to think that it’s similar to other countries when it’s not. In most countries, the federal government is the primary source of power and certain rights and responsibilities are delegated down to local authorities. That’s not how it works in the US. Here it’s the people who have the most people and we delegate that power to our local and state governments first. Then a small set of limited powers are delegated from the state governments to the federal government. Most of his plans appear based on the idea that the federal government is responsible for our every breath when that simply isn’t the case. State governments are so much more capable of meeting the needs of their own people as each state may have its own culture of people. A single federal government cannot possible know what’s best for the population as a whole, which is exactly why this country was designed as it was.

I like that he killed a fly.
I dislike how he protects the corporate welfare bonuses of the business failures at AIG while high levels of joblessness for the non-privileged class becomes the norm.
