Why Are People Always Criticizing President Obama?
January 14th, 2010People tend to only see that he’s part African – American. They look beyond his education, his past community service experience which set his path for where he is today. He had to start somewhere. The man is not a SAVIOR! He will not fix all of America’s problems. He’s only been in office a year and people act as if he has a magic wand to wave over the country and instantly fix our problems. Problems can occur in seconds, but will take years to correct!
I agree with you 100%. He walked into a huge mess. He is actually trying to fix it all. I feel for the guy as he wants to fix the world and make everything wonderful. That is what matters to me…that he really cares. He is only one person and all he can do is put out the effort to fix whatever he can and nothing more.Republicans are idiots.They are jealous that a black man was able to become president. Oh my gosh! Its the end of the world now. I even had someone tell me that Obama is bringing down the end of the world.He is leading us to that time where all will end…its all his fault.I often wish we were not such a divided country and have 2 parties instead of just coming together to care about the same things we should be caring about..homeless people, hungry people,people who are sick with no insurance coverage,jobless people now to add to the list. We need to come together but I don’t see that happening and its a very sad thing.
Well, when he does something right, let us know.
I could run the military better than he can. I could fix the insurance issue better and cheaper than he can.
I can name company after company and CEO after CEO he has giving money to. Give links to all of the poor and homeless who are no longer poor and homeless because of him?
And who are you kidding? All through the election I read comment after comment about someone was voting for him just because of his skin color. You can still find some of it on You Tube. A load of it was right here on Yahoo Answers as well. And they weren’t saying it for the just because sake either. Furthermore, even a member of the American Civil Rights Union wrote an article about him because of the way the liberal media treats him. It was in the New York Post titled, “Beyond Obama’s Beauty.”
I took notice of a comment you made on another question:
“When President Obama does well everyone wants credit for the good, but when he makes a humane mistake then he’s belittled and hated.”
You are kidding yourself! Much of the stuff he is doing wrong has nothing what so ever to do with “humane mistake(s)”! The guy is doing it on purpose!
People will always criticize the President of the United States. Obama is no exception to the rule. I would say a greater departure from the norm is the expectation that President Obama is the savior we’ve all been looking for in this country. I respect Obama as our nations leader and as a brilliant individual. However, I deeply disagree with many of the principles that govern his ideology. Other people that are unreasonable and hateful disagree with him as well. Being the unreasonable and hateful people that they are, they say unreasonable and hateful things about Obama. Others are negative individuals and derive satisfaction from criticising not only Obama, but plenty of others around them. But, its important to not confuse criticism with civil disussions on fundamental disagreements citizens have with Obama’s personal philosophy and the decisions it guides him to make. Blunt criticism is often alienating, disrespectful, and unproductive, while civil debate perpetuates the development of quality critical thinking. Both of these forms of communication will be present in America during any Presidential Administration. It would require widespread divine intervention to ever change that fact.
Nobody cares about his skin color. His background is woefully insufficient for his current job, which is well beyond his pay grade. As a result, his inexperience renders him incapable of fixing anything. The criticism stems from his inability to effectively deal with situations, and his ability to make them worse by the actions he takes. See “Economy and Deficits.”
Community service is not executive experience. In fact, the two groups most noted for performing community service are ACORN and criminals, definitely not mutually exclusive groups.
It is EXACTLY because of his past community CRIMINAL “service” he is criticized
It is EXACTLY because he was elected by over 90% blacks that he usurped the oval office and the CORRUPT ACORN FRAUD he funds with my tax dollars that he is criticized
It is EXACTLY because of his arab-african-muslim roots that are hostile to the American way of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness that your idol is criticized.
It is EXACTLY because of the anti-American liberal education paid for by the tax payers that he is criticized
It is EXACTLY because he is indoctrinated 20 years by Rev Wright’s hate whitey and damning of America that he is criticized
It is EXACTLY racist sheeple like yourself who point the finger at hard working, law abiding, tax paying citizens
You show your ignorance like a true racist liberal.
Just go away!
You should be asking why he hasn’t been impeached!
It is very simple: he lied to the american people. He has broken every campaign promise that he made. He has surrounded himself with people who don’t have a clue what they are doing. He is causing more problems than fixing problems. Everything he does is for his political agenda and nothing else. Being part african-american has nothing to do with anything. He is a racist. If you disagree with anything he wants to do sooner or later you are branded a racist. He spends more time flying around in Air Force One than he does in the white house. Foreign countrys do not like this country anymore. I could go on for days. He needs to resign and go back to the streets of Chigago where he belongs.
We are criticizing President Obama because now people are seeing what he’s doing. He’s taking away the freedom of speech. If a talk show host is conservative then he pasted a law in which he can get their show off. The bombers of 9/11 ? yea he’s letting them come into a civil court. He is trying to legalize homosexuals able to legally marry. that isn’t good if you want to know why look it America’s virtues and morals. He is also weakening our national defense. He has insulted Europe by not attending his own ceremony for his award. Unfortunately he represents America and by him shaking the Queen’s hand or whatever he did is a huge no no. So those are just some of the reasons why people are criticizing him.
Obama is uniquely unqualified for the position of POTUS. He was a _junior_ senator with no voting record and very little political experience which was as a “community organizer”.
Now _that_ is real experience to enable him to deal with international politics.
Perhaps that is why he was grovelling before the honorary emperor of Japan.
… Why not? That is the proper question here…
Why do people make fun of Britney Spears? Tiger Woods? Bush Jr? Federline? Because they have all made fools of themselves. Obama has lost 30% of his supporters over the first year… That leaves 21% of his “loyal” supporters. Not to be mean or anthing, but those supporters are either stupid, poor, a celebrity (95% are stupid) or some idiot that blames everything on everyone except for themselves.
Woo Obama!! NOT!!
Ok lets not make fun of him… He is trying to make too drastic of changes too quick. He is a arrogant jerk that wants nothing to do with “We the People”… Just “I know whats best”. He is digging himself a hole and any intelligent person should do everything in their power to get him kicked from office… and yes… it is possible… but everyone is too busy on Yahoo! Answers bitching about our problems and are not doing anything about it.
I called my congressman today… Did you?
People ask why are people criticizing Obama and will not see what he is doing to American and know in the first place he was not experienced enough for such a office. I get tired of the complaining but I will give my input that he will never fix our problems as he is a selfish and is a dictator. He will never practice what he preaches but he is spending our monies big time for what he wants and has never pushed back in his spending practices to push what he wants.
It has nothing to do with his race, and honestly I get very irritated when I’m told that I’m a racist if I disagree with him. I would gladly take Bill Cosby, that guy from the Allstate commercials, or Fat Albert over President Obama. He campaigned as a savior, but now every time he opens his mouth or uses his pen, America suffers.
Because he’s awful. He was a failure as a community organizer (he couldn’t even get toilets fixed) and is a worse failure as president. Any problems we had before he was elected he’s only managed to make worse.
It has nothing to do with the color of his skin.
Look, no one cares if he is African American or Siamese.. get over it. The only ones caring are the blacks or the racists.
People are getting on his case tho, because he promised so much, knowing he couldn’t do it, but wanted to be elected., make history, blah, blah blah.
Now he can’t deliver and yeah, people are mad. Where are the jobs and fixing of the economy. And now, God forbid we are liable to have another war front to handle… he doesn’t have a clue what he is doing.
I don’t feel safe with him at the helm!
criticism how so?http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?…
The man is a joke
He has the LOWEST approval rating entering his second year in office of ALL previous Presidents
Because he’s making unprecedented grabs by the federal government to strengthen it and centralize power.
Obama is a habitual liar and deceptive.
He should be doing his best to make black people proud,but instead he lets them down!
because he is screwing up all the time. I don’t see his race, I see someone who got elected on hype and now it is costing all of us
Perhaps if he seemed to have a clue what he was doing there wouldn’t be so many people criticizing him….
oh boo hoo
He’s an idiot.
I don’t care what color he is, he is bad for this country, as are all lib/socialists
I am an Obama supporter, but, he has broken a lot of his campaign promises!
I am still hoping for the best when it comes to the issues that are important to me. But he does get criticized a lot for good things he has done. He has only been in for one year, so I am willing to give him a chance!!
I do wish he would stand up to the R’s and the Conservadems!!
People are criticizing Obama because their jealous that the Democrats got someone elected who’s iq was larger than their shoe size
It is easy to criticize.,
it is hard to come up with solutions.
That is the real answer to your question.
Sad, huh?
It is no more than the right wing band wagon of hatred. They thought the last election was in the bag lock stock and barrel.
It’s not “people” it’s “ignorant people”
honestly people find anything to complain about. nothing could be wrong and someone would find something to say
This is for shjOld, Obama is doing a better job of commanding the U.S. Military that the Bushwacker ever did. Bush put us in great danger. The best thing that happened last year was his departure from a very inept presidency.
