6. Same here...
there are many here who are simply critics and they will never know the inside of my basement, but it's pretty easy to tell a critic from a hater.

12. Hater is a bullshit right wing term.
If liberals are going to have any kind of positive actions, and substantive discussion and analysis of policy, we need to stop using the language of our enemies.

19. Yes. I know. And it became fashionable, politically, when Bush was elected.
Rather than substantively argue policy, the Bushie's would toss out "hater".

Well, there you go. How can you argue with that?

16. Let me tell you something right now...
I don't hate President Obama. You go back and look at any post in which I referred to the President. You will see that I have shown nothing but the utmost respect for him as the President of the United States of America.

In fact, I voted for him. Twice. In Texas, where supporting him was not always popular. I volunteered. I phone-banked. I donated. I believed. I hoped. And, I told him personally, face-to-face at Reunion Arena in Dallas, that I trusted him and believed in him. He said that he wouldn't let me down.

Well, he has let me down. I thought it was going to be different. I thought he wss going to be tough and brave. Instead, he is just more of the same old story that begins with hope and promises and ends with broken-dreams and despair. I wanted to see historic truth and historic facing our demons and historic resolve to right the wrongs and reset the agenda. All we got instead was peace, love, sunshine, daisies, and skittles-shitting unicorns.

18. Bless you, fellow Texan...
I think Obama's performance in the White House would improve dramatically if he jettisoned the dead weight, aka Rahm Emanuel.

17. Maybe if the actions match the words

I'll stop criticizing.

But being a hater? That's second grade name calling. Grow up.
