Obama...has gone to war and killed people with bombs too....without congressional approval. You Lefties conviently ignore that.....OH HOW HYPOCRITICAL. He is as much a war criminal as Bush. At least Bush got the approval of congress for his war.
Oh, if you want to criticize Obama for continuing and sometimes even expanding the Bush policies of drone strikes, secrecy and illegal detention, including failing to fulfill his promise to close Guantanamo, I'm right there with you. I've posted many times on this forum that Obama is a profound disappointment and he is not my man by any means.
If you spend any time on a liberal forum, you'll find that we're bitterly divided between the "purists" who want a real liberal in office even if it means a 3rd party, the "realists" who say we need to vote the lesser evil because the GOP is worse, and the "Obamabots" who insist that Obama is a great president and any of his failures are only because we didn't support him enough.
I'm in the middle category. I pragmatically hold my nose and vote Obama even though he sucks only because the GOP has lost its mind. At the same time though, I have no patience for the self-righteous Obamabots who wag their fingers at everyone else on the left and hold Obama to be blameless and pure.
