".........., and the horse you rode in on "

[Peacetrain]

This may quickly become my standard reply to the non stop Obama haters. I have given a good nine months of hand holding and coddling some friends and even a few family as they transition into accepting that the Democrats won.

The non stop whining, has got to end. I know a few (fortunately just a few) who will chant the latest outrage on Fox news or Hannity, or Beck as if it were inscribed in stone.

The second you disprove their point of view, they do not stop to think and reconsider before jumping to the next outrage being pushed.

So enough is enough.

By the way, that can include Arianna. Get a grip already!

1. you're exaggerating how bad they are

and how many there are.

If you looked at reality, Obama has a ton of support and most people are extremely patient with him.

Especially if you compare him to other democrats. Obama is spared a lot that other dems aren't.

[Peacetrain]

5. Since they are MY personal acquaintances , I think I should know how bad they are

[Enrique]

7. ok, go get 'em

do it for Obama!

[Cha]

2. The only Obama haters I encounter

are right here on DU. I don't watch "news"..any way shape or form and I'm lucky enough that all my family and friends are strong supporters of the President.

In fact, tomorrow night I'm going out to dinner with some women who were part of the Mohawk Valley for Obama and now we're Organizing for America:patriot::patriot:

Hang Tough, Peacetrain..PO is. These haters are not going to bring him down.

6. It was an interesting few days as some family and friends gathered.

Cha you are so lucky.. some of mine are just off the deep end. Most of our family and friends are solid Democrats, but we have a few who have been drinking that right wing kool aide for too long :hi:

3. Oh guess what?

"you're exaggerating"! :hug:

4. Bravo!

8. Oh, stop whining! I get so sick of the whining about Obama haters. It has got to end.

Any DUer with any sense is not going to react with either hate or total love for Obama. I don't bother with many of the posts attacking Obama, and often unrec them. By the same token, I don't care for those that oppose any criticism of Obama, and often unrec them.

9. I have to agree...

Sometimes I like what Obama has done...and at times I don't.
I like it when he does something to correct the mistakes and evil fuck-ups of the past..I hate it when he upholds the same Bush doctrines that made this mess.

[JTFrog]

10. The fucking Lieberman's of DU.

They'll side with Fox, Rush and even the fucking Taliban if it means they can toss some hate President Obama's way.

11. Obama Haters

Stop defending Obama, he stinks! Your such a peace lover, why aren't you out there protesting Obama and the war? He has not changed Bushs policies at all on the war. He is also sending lots more troops to Afghanistan! Why aren't we protesting anymore? What is he or congress doing any different, except being allot more hush, hush about it. I say we go to Washington and march!

13. Lets see..you join today, and you had to dig back 2 weeks in the archives to respond to this..

hmmmmmmm... you want a Appaloosa , and Arabian.. maybe a Tennessee Walking Horse.. or maybe a nice stocky Breton

[azmouse]

14. It's Halloween.

All the slimy, creepy crawly things come out of the woodwork on a day like this.

[Peacetrain]

16. You are right.. it will be a trick night in here.. hmmmmm wonder if I should go in costume to FR

How long would I last before they figured me out.. I could go as a Palin supporter.. Oh I have to think about this one a minute.. he he he

[Phx_Dem]

12. I might borrow that refrain, Peacetrain!

I am sick to death of the incessant whining too. It started immediately after Obama was elected with the bitching about who he might or might not choose for his cabinet. And Ariana Huffington and John Aravosis can take turns shoving each other up their own asses.

[AllentownJake]

15. I hope you guys realize this isn't a primary

There is no choice in the matter right now. What the hell do you think the "Obama Haters" are going to do? Organize a third party? Vote for a token candidate in the 2012 primary? Vote for a Republican? Are you guys seriously that deluded?

Guess what, any President that is elected is going to get criticism from both part of his base and from the opposition.

If he was moving to far leftward the moderates would be the ones screaming bloody murder.

Some people have real concerns about administration policies. They vent on a message board. Deal with it.

You all know in 2010 all of us will dutifully walk to the polls and vote for the democratic candidate unless the particular candidate is acting like Lieberman. You also know in 2012 everyone on here is going to go vote for President Obama.

If you want people to do more, how about giving them a reason to instead of trying to brow beat people into doing it.

[Peacetrain]

17. First of all AllenT.. if you read the OP I was venting about people in my real time life

sheesh
