Unfortunately, just like Bush he's more worried about how his corporate friends' bank accounts are doing than actually governing this country in a more positive direction. I've been teetering for awhile on whether I like Obama or not. This Syria fiasco pushed me over the edge.
When Obama was running for president the first time around, my opinion of him was that he seemed sincere, but I thought he lacked the experience for the job. I didn't vote for him for that reason (nor did I vote for McCain, I wanted no part of sending a Republican to ANY position of power after the prior 8 years).
I wanted to like the guy, and I wished him well after he took office.
What an utter disappointment. He's every bit a tool of the so-called 1% as his predecessor.
Hopefully in 2016 the Democrats will put up some decent candidates, though I won't hold my breath. I'm pretty certain that the Republicans are going to double down on batshit crazy again.
