Wow so much hate for Obama, he doesn't seem all that bad and overall he just comes off as a very meh President not outright terrible. Any Americans willing to explain the Obama hate?

  • Republicans hate him and democrats love him. There are very few who can think outside their party in this country. Obama has some good ideas, but most of them are unrealistic and without a perfect world would never work. I am a republican and I don't like how much of a liberal he is, liberalism has no place in politics (for example gay marriage passing as a national law is a violation of states rights and should not be allowed). So yes you are right on him being a "meh" president who didn't really accomplish anything that significant.

  • Hmm I see, but now I HAVE to ask another question, why does liberalism have no place in politics?

  • Because it's based too much on opinion, such as gay marriage being mainly a liberalist belief and then that belief being passed as a federal law. Passing something that has nothing to do with politics through a nationwide federal law is just ridiculous, unconstitutional, and a direct violation of states rights.

  • But what about human rights? It's not like they're trying to make people gay, they just want full rights is that such a bad thing? Sure liberalism has flaws but the IDEALS that liberalism promotes usually comes from the right place.

  • I'm not saying that gays having rights is wrong, I'd think it was wrong if they didn't. But that choice is not a government concern. An especially if how they legalize it is unconstitutional. And if liberals had it their way then America would basically be communist or socialist to be honest. And from a viewpoint of a conservative Christian, things like homosexuality are wrong. Now if you know much about Christianity that is not a deal breaker for being Christian. (Gays can be Christian but homosexuality is a sin, but who doesn't sin, right? In Christianity it's just a matter of if you repent or not.) Christian conservatives (which if you didn't know most republicans/conservatives are Christians) would believe that some liberal beliefs are wrong due to being immoral or just that they simply disagree with them in most cases due to being opposite parties.
