Obama supporters, your missing the point

Tweet

After browsing through a number of threads reguarding Obama, I felt it nessesary to point a few things out to his supporters, particularly the issues many of his oposition have, wich seem to be drasticly misunderstood. Let me state first, I am not a republican, i didn't vote republican in the elections at all in fact. Bush and the last congress passed some pretty power grabbing and liberty threatening legislation by scaring us all in to believing it was nessesary It isn't that we aren't willing to give him time or that we believe things can be fixed overnight. For many of us, or at least me, the issues are the same I had with the Bush administration, a lack of constitutional government and a disasterous spending/money creation policy. there is no doubt Bush and the last congress put more coffin nails in the economy, he and his ilk spent like drunken sailors on leave . But this didn't all happen in one adminsitration, it's a house of cards that has been building for a very long time. No one ever adressed the real problems over time and so now here we are. It takes a long time to see results, that is for certain. But it only takes 2 seconds to spot a blatently unconstitutional act or a policy that will be ultimately desytructive to our economy or way of life. I apply my critisism not only to the president but to the congress as well, both houses, both parties. I am not willing to sacrifice constitutional principals for a sense of ecoonomic gain or personal and national security, those principals are far more important to me. I do not wish to see a large powerfull central federal government, it is not what was intended, it is not a workable government and the constitution clearly defines a very specific and limited role for it. If you have issue outside the federal government's constitutional scope you need to address in government through legislation or such, then adress it with in your state government and leave the rest of our states out of it. If your state government isn't working for you, then change it or move to another state who's laws and such suit your liking, again, leave my state alone. Also, in future discussions, if you feel you have a valid case in defending one of Obama's or the current congress's actions or policies, then please, defend that policy or action on it's own merrit, rather than point back to the last bastardd administraion. If a policy is in fact a good one, you should be able to defend it with out having to resort to this. If you are presented with a critism, be kind enough to read the relevent legislation or policy before you dismiss concerns out of hand, come back with valid arguments. I'm becomming convinced many of his supporters are incapable of doing this and revert to the typical pavlovian responses.
