It's not "hate", it's his arrogance, it's his disdain of the Constitution, it's his lies, it's his deceptions, it's his "not one dime" of tax increase lies, it's unemployment, it's $trillions$ more in debt on the backs of future generations, it's redistribution of wealth, it's his condescending attitude, it's his broken promises period.

Almost makes me want to see him re-elected for the reactions alone.

The US doesn't have a drilling need; it has a consumption and price manipulation problem. And as can easily be seen here, those who already oppose the president will continue to malign him.

eomc17 Champion Author Tucson Posts:1,822 Points:134,145 Joined:Mar 2007	Message Posted: Jul 7, 2012 1:59:46 AM Ignore eomc17 Report Abuse Obama lies about everything. He won't reign in speculators either. He won't give the CFTC or Congress any money to enforce any legislation that will save us money anywhere. He won't tell us how expensive Obamacare will really be for us. Access to Health Care is not ACCESS to affordable Health Care. And this hypocrite has the gall to tell us his government is transparent???? He must believe the world is flat, too.

Metrolizer Champion Author Fort Worth Posts:2,015 Points:2,205,005 Joined:Feb 2005	Message Posted: Jul 6, 2012 11:27:15 AM Ignore Metrolizer Report Abuse “Shell won its Arctic leases during the Bush administration, but its final permits to drill have so far not been granted by Obama. Sources expect the final OK to come this week.” Sounds fishy to me. Shell has millions of dollars riding on a go-ahead this season, but “green” activists will never be on board. What game is Obama playing?
johntxx Champion Author Texas Posts:2,761 Points:612,320 Joined:Aug 2011	Message Posted: Jul 6, 2012 11:20:49 AM Ignore johntxx Report Abuse An Obama tactic for getting votes--more smoke & mirrors. If America is stupid enough to re-elect this lying incompetent narcissistic moron for another term, he'll just claim the studies show that we shouldn't drill. I would be surprised if he appoints himself dictator or head czar for life if he gets a second term.
