It's so sad that people actually WANT our President to fail. Wow...fucking self absorbed morons. No matter who it is, people should want the best for OUR COUNTRY. They don't have to LIKE him, but still, WANTING him (ANY President) to fail for their own personal "pride" is disgusting.
Who WANTS Obama to fail?
I would love for Obama to be the greatest president thus far. I am just
afraid that he won't be. So are these people, and many others.
Just as you said, there are some bad apples who wish the president ill no matter what, but I think the vast majority set aside the campaign politics and are now looking purely at the proposed ideas.
I like the latest
Chris Matthews incident. Highlights the case of MSM BDS(Bush-Derangement System)/Obama Worship quite nicely.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Yeah, well, you know what? I want to do everything I can to make this thing work, this new presidency work, and I think that --
JOE SCARBOROUGH: Is that your job? You just talked about being a journalist!
MATTHEWS: Yeah, it is my job. My job is to help this country.
Matthews wasn't done with his odd new job description . . . An incredulous Scarborough kept pressing, astonished at such a complete 180 from Matthews's repeated insistence during the Bush presidency that he had to hold the government accountable.
SCARBOROUGH: Your job is the make this presidency work?
MATTHEWS: To make this work successfully. This country needs a successful presidency.
Matthews will hardly be alone in that sentiment. Once Obama assumes office, the "speaking truth to power" line we've heard so often during the past eight years will be a thing of the past.
Media Bias? What Media Bias?
(My point here is NOT that Matthews is wrong to want to make sure this presidency works. My point is that Matthews/the MSM have been wrong
for the last 8 years with their incessant Bush Bashing)
