Although I detest everything the 0bama stands for, he was still my President by law and tradition.

No longer.

He just quit that job with that speech in Virginia (my home). I no longer feel obligated to call him ‘my’ president. He is now the New American Ruler who wants to subjugate over half the population for the benefit of his political minions. He demands fealty, not repect.

I fear this will not end well.

The comments below from the current President are akin to Bill Clinton saying the following to Governor Mark Sanford:

“Hey buddy, what is wrong with you? I can’t believe you put your state through this trauma. You can be sure we’ll put a squeaky clean Democrat — hopefully just like me — in the governor’s office to bring morality back to SC. If you need inspiration to get your act together, just look at how long Hillary and I have been married! In fact, if not for the vast right-wing conspiracy, we’d never have had any bumps in the road in our marriage. And feel free to call if you could use some marriage counseling. Eliot Spitzer and I are co-writing a book on marriage, including one chapter about how your wife can be your greatest political ally. You could use more than a little help in that area.”

“Obama also did some campaigning for himself, defending his administration’s efforts to fix the economy and blistering Republican critics, who he blamed for creating the crisis he inherited.

“I expect to be held responsible,” Obama said. “But I don’t want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess. I don’t mind cleaning up after them, but don’t do a lot of talking.”

Obama accused his GOP critics of having “selective memory” about the economy and said, “When I walked in we had a $1.3 trillion deficit. That was gift-wrapped and waiting for me when I walked into the Oval Office.”

George W. Bush was a man of GOD and my president, not this socialist muslim Obama, So what if Bush lied to the american people and falsified evidence to start a war in Iraq, so what if he politicized the Department of Justice, so what if his economic policies helped destroy our economy, so what if pretty much all of his domestic and foreign policies were a total failure, he is a man of God and that makes him a good president.

Did any of you Redstaters ever report anti-war activity to the government? Sure, we were rough with each other — I called President Bush–I won’t repeat it, everything under the sun I could think of. You said I was appeasing terrorists. But that’s not the same as reporting my IP address to the White House.

I think flag@whitehouse.gov is unconstitutional. Next thing he’ll be telling us to wear our underwear on the outside.

“while treating American citizens that disagree with its policies as dangerous threats bent on destroying the country, using every thuggish tactic at its disposal to silence them.”
You cannot be serious in saying that the republican party/Bush administration never resorted to these tactics during their time in power. The revisionism here is astounding. Anyone remember Cheney insinuating that disagreeing with the war in Iraq was tantamount to aiding terrorism? Whether you agree with his insinuation or not, he made it and it is most certainly an example of casting your detractors as dangerous threats to the country.
