Didn't he campaign on "restoring respect and dignity for America in the world community?"

How's that working out for him?

Probably as well as "Hopey Changey" is working for everyone else.

Speaking of hope and change.... I hope we can change it back.

Speaking as an ignorant English Gal, what is it that you guys hate so much about Obama? Expect I'll have a lot of reading to do

I don't "hate" Obama, but I'm not happy that he is the president. He's a big-government, tax and spend liberal who's running up the deficit at a frightening rate. And his foreign policy is incoherent and confusing; he treats allies poorly and enemies well.

Well for one thing, he supports all that is ungodly, unholy and contradicts what the Bible says, (abortion, gay marriage) I can't support that.

There is a long laundry list of issues that many Americans have against Obama.
1. He has made a point of creating division rather that bringing things together with his racial and class warfare.
2. He has been shown to be and has even proven in his actions to be at least a socialist, even global socialist, and even very possibly a communist who is bent on destroying this country.
3.The most important thing to remember about Obama is to not listen to what he says but to watch what he does. Politicians use the term disingenuous for those that are not honest and forthright. This would be an extremely kind and generous description of Obama.
4. He continues to spend money like it was water while we continue to head down to economic collapse. In his election campaign he said that he would cut and slash the budget and government costs. Not only has he not even tried to do this, we have not even had a budget for the majority of the administration. And what does he want to do? More taxes which is a typical socialist attitude of tax, borrow and spend and grow government on the backs of the people.
5. He has allowed or even ordered his Attorney General to become a political hack in the one position in any administration that should be fair, just and above all else neutral. This position has been about nothing but trying to gain more voters for Obama in the upcoming election as he wants to allow illegal aliens the right to vote and collect Social Security without ever having paid into the system. He would also not allow ID checks for elections to prove that people are registered and legal to vote.
6. He has tried to implement a health care system that in essence is a complete attempt at government control of the people. Vladimer Lenin once said that the first way to take control of a nation is to take control of their healthcare. There have been those that have read the 2,000 + page bill and have finally found out that it will completely destroy us. Hopefully the Supreme Court will render a decision sometime before July 4th that will strike this bill down.
7. There have been appointments called "czars" to his administration which were not "vetted" and some of these people were found to be communists and socialists. There are also people in the administration with links to the Muslim Brotherhood. None of this seems to be benefiting the American people but does seem to be benefiting others. As president his role and duties are to SERVE the American people, not his own ideologies and himself.

This will do for starters. It is time to go grocery shopping.

That's a good un' for starters, does he have any good points in your view?

LOL, oh dear.... I haven't found any yet, I'm still looking.

Edited to add: God loves him, so I need to pray for him.

Thought I might regret asking that question
being devils advocate though, how many of his predecessors got all or any of the above sussed?
And on the Muslim botherhood ( I'll leave that spillin' mistake) issue, are they American citizens? if so how can you not let them be part of the system, either we stop muslims coming in or we try to integrate them by allowing them to play a part in OUR governments.
And you have the same problem in the States as we do here, who are the American people?
Our countries, I believe have succeeded because of our tolerance of other nationalities, what would London be like without that wonderful cosmopolitan mix!
As I said earlier I am fairly ignorant of the politics across the pond but it is from my point of view interesting as we as countries have so much in common.

He also campaigned that he would have the most transparent administration ever, that we should learn personal responsibility, and that we should live within our means. Apparently, he doesn't include himself in we, the people. That's ok...I don't include him, either.

Remember the words of Princess Pelosi: We have to pass the bill to see whats in it.


Hope and Change folks, Hope and Change.

My favorite, of whom I had the honor of voting for, was Ronald Reagan.
