The Love-Hate Relationship with Barack Obama

There is rampant speculation by many on the far-left that President Barack Obama is rapidly losing his popularity solely due to the color of his skin. But didn't 80% of the population approve of the man on inauguration day? Are far-leftists arguing that it wasn't until after they voted him into office did people begin realizing they weren't comfortable with an African-American man residing at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue?

Are Americans saying, "On second thought, I do have a problem with the race of our current president and therefore will indicate to any pollster who calls on the telephone that I disapprove of the job Mr. Obama is doing despite the fact that I remain an ardent supporter of every single one of his ideas. As a result of my poll responses, hopefully we can get a white guy back running the show, even if said honkey's positions will damage the country."

Perhaps far-leftists are correct in their claim that the overwhelming majority of Americans are indeed closeted racists? Sure, we tried living a non-racist lifestyle, but in the end simply couldn't bury the truth and now must admit that we despise people with skin color different than our own. Forgive us, for we were born racist.

Or maybe this is what happened...

The American people received a wake up call when it became evident, early in his presidency, that Obama considers most of us to be capitalist pigs. It took some longer than others to realize, but the majority of reasonable Americans are now keenly aware of the fact that, because so many individuals living in our country hold center-right viewpoints, citizens of the United States do not poll well in the First Household.

Barack Obama only likes people unwilling to help themselves; people who sit in their dingy apartments playing video games as they wait for a president to come along and implement policies that allow them to live comfortably while achieving nothing more than progressing to the next level with 50,000 bonus points and the occasional power-up.

Those are the only individuals for whom President Obama has an affinity.

He wants you to want him.

He needs you to need him.

I can't imagine how crushing it was for people to learn that the man they loved so much not only does not reciprocate said feelings of admiration, but considers them the cause of what ails the world.

So we must give these poor souls time, for they likely remain optimistic Mr. Obama has something up his sleeve.

We conservatives would feel the same way if Rush Limbaugh went astray on his uber-popular radio show.

At first we wouldn't believe it.

We'd say, "Did the Doctor of Democracy just claim that he believes the Federal Government should mandate the kind of car we drive because we're too stupid to make appropriate automotive decisions? He's up to something. Wait for it... Wait for it..."

It would take us a while to come to grips with the reality that we were waiting for a reversal that was never going to happen.

It's not a perfect analogy because Rush has established a decades long track record, whereas, prior to being elected President of the United States, Mr. Obama had a career that equaled the time it takes Tiger Woods to seduce a porn star, but you get my drift.

So please give those who genuinely love Barack Obama time to accept the simple fact that he despises ever fiber of their being.
