M2RB: The Romantics
What I hate about you...
I
hate President Barack H Obama. There, I said it. I think his
policies rank him among the worst presidents in U.S. history. And, while I'm
tempted to leave it at that, the truth is that I hate him for less substantive
reasons, too.
I hate the inequitable way he has come to his economic and political achievements and his utter lack of humility (disguised behind transparently false modesty) at having done so.
I hate him for his divisiveness.
I hate him for his willingness - no, eagerness - to infect American society with the cancer of envy and hatred.
I hate him for encouraging the McCarthys in his party, amongst his followers, and in the media - but, I repeat myself – by allowing them to cry “RAAAACISM!” when even the slightest criticism is lodged against him. Sorry, but if I criticise his “reset” with a Russia run by a strongman like the former KGB-prick, Putin, who weirdly has the great fortune of seeing his critics, especially women such as human rights activist Natalia Estemirova and journalists Anna Politkovskaya and Anastasia Baburova, turn up murdered, IT IS NOT RACIST! If I criticise his drone programme, IT IS NOT RACIST! Were either criticism motivated by racism when I lodged them at Bush?
I hate him for refusing to take responsibility for I hate him for refusing to take responsibility for ANYTHING and his eternal reflexiveness to blame Bush; the Bush tax cuts; the Japanese tsunami; the euro crisis; ATMs; airport kiosks; oil prices; corporate jet owners; rich fatcats; Afghanistan; Iran; Israel; Israeli settlements; Iraq; the deficit; the debt; Republican obstructionism; Blue Dog Democrats; BP; the financial crisis; Scott Brown’s election; Greece; “teabaggers;” political gridlock; the euro; eurosceptics; too little government; too few taxes; the debt debate; Standard & Poor’s; wealthy people who want to keep what they earned; oil companies; Ireland; some car that won’t get out of the ditch, cliffs; Slurpees; people that don't like people with "funny names;" people that won't let "people love who they want to love;" people that hate women; climate change deniers; Portugal; Midwest heatwaves; ice storms in Tennessee and Kentucky; hurricanes; health care costs; too little government investment in subsidised green energy; math errors; millionaires and billionaires; Wall Street; hedge fund managers; the unfairness of the debt limit law; “man-caused disasters;” “overseas contingency operations;” various seasons in the Arab world (“It’s Spring! No, maybe, it’s only Autumn! Well, OK, maybe, we were irrationally exuberant and it’s an Arab Winter!”); Congress’ unwillingness to spend more on Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious stimulus programmes; people who holiday in Las Vegas; the American form of government; people who won’t “eat their peas”; Rush Limbaugh; Sean Hannity; Glenn Beck; “enemies;” Fox News; bitterclingers; “shadowy overseas groups;” people that want “dirty air and dirty water;” Americans For Prosperity; the Heritage Foundation; the CATO Institute; our “messy system of government;” other people’s “ideologies;” people in positions of power in Washington (but not him or Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid or House Democrats or Senate Democrats); SuperPACs (except his and those of Democrats, of course); people who want to reform entitlements, i.e., Republicans, libertarians, independents, moderates, and Blue Dog Democrats (even though he has said they must be reformed because they are unsustainable); people who do not want to reform entitlements, i.e., Progressives (even though he has said they must be reformed because they are unsustainable); people who produce budgets in accordance with the law; the “Professional Left;” budget hawks because deficit spending is only “irresponsible” and “unpatriotic” when Republicans do it; Islamophobes that question the Muslim Brotherhood; the Praetorian Guard/MSM, which only very, very rarely questions the Palace’s line; people that need “revenge” taken out upon them; citizens and representatives,who don’t want to “ride in the back of the bus;” Mitt Romney, who “kills women with cancer, has stock in a company that closed a factory in Illinois and opened a new one in China (like I do), doesn’t pay taxes (like my Treasury Secretary), and has money in Cayman Island bank accounts (like my director of OMB), dontcha know?”; people, who think that our military still uses “horses and bayonets” (“Wait! WHAT? The military DOES still use bayonets and horses?!?! I’m the Commander-in-Chief! Why was I not told???”); and YouTube videos for his own failures.
I hate him for his desire to always jump into issues like Skip Gates and Trayvon Martin while remaining mum on what his White House calls "local matters" such as the bounty the New Black Panthers put on George Zimmerman's head, the hundreds of African-American teenagers that went on a wilding-spree at the Wisconsin State Fair beating up white people.
I hate him for thinking that profit is a real four-letter word, unlike "J-O-B-S."
I hate him for caring about women when it comes to Sandra Fluke, but couldn't give a fuck about women like Bristol Palin, SE Cupp, Sarah Palin, Laura Ingraham, etc.
I hate him for lying and demagoguing laws like SB 1070 claiming that they will allow the police to arrest innocent people buying their kids ice cream while his own administration is in court arguing that race is a relevant factor in immigration stops.
I hate him for building strawmen for everything. If you oppose him, you want dead children, dead old people, homeless autistic kids, dirty air, dirty water, an economy that "only works for the rich," etc, and you hate immigrants, women, homosexuals, "people that don't look like you," and cling to your guns and religion.
I hate him for reducing the concept of my healthcare to abortion and contraception.
I hate him for believing that I am, apparently, sufficiently well-informed enough to abort a foetus, but incapable of deciding what kind of health insurance policy best suits my health and financial needs.
I hate him for refusing to learn economics while believing that he does.
I hate him for believing that people buy insurance out of compassion for other people. Do you purchase car insurance so that the 16 year-old with 5 accidents and 6 speeding tickets can pay lower premiums or, conversely, do you purchase more insurance than you need to cover your 1988 Chevette so that the millionaire with a sweeeeeeeeeet Ferrari 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO can pay lower premiums? Of course not, but The-Smartest-Man-In-The-World-Room-Phonebox™ believes that you do.
I hate him for his paternalism.
I hate him for believing that America is a flawed country that is either forever stained by the "original sin of slavery" or can only be saved by him.
I hate him because he punishes our allies and rewards our enemies.
I hate him because he believes that there is something fundamentally wrong with successful people and treats them as they have achieved their success through theft, corruption, oppression, privilege, etc.
I hate him because he thinks people should go into business solely for the "common good" and any self-interest is indicative of greed and selfishness.
I hate him for calling Americans "enemies," but refusing to call terrorists and Islamists what they are.
I hate him for bowing to foreign leaders. For someone, who has spoken and written about the misdeeds of imperialism, it is quite strange to see him bow and subjugate himself and this country.
I hate him for apologising for this country, which has liberated more people and done more good than any in the history of civilisation.
I hate him for having so little regard for the Constitution and violates it whenever he pleases such as when he makes recess appointments when the Senate cannot possibly be in recess pursuant to Article I, Section 9 or refuses to get Congressional approval for military actions like that in Libya.
I hate him for calling the profligate President Bush "irresponsible" and "unpatriotic" for adding $4,901,104,747,205.59 to the national debt over the course of 8 years, but considers it perfectly acceptable -- indeed, necessary -- to add $ 6,077,066,080,503.06 to the national debt in 1,512 days.
I hate him for his administration's issuance of an average of 68 regulations per day -- 6,125 regulations or regulatory notices in just the 90 days leading up to 12 November 2012.
I hate him for his disgust of business and business people.
I hate that he believes that illegal immigrants should be rewarded while people like me, who obeyed the law to come here, are called racist and other names for demanding that everyone "have a fair shot and plays by the same rules."
I hate him for his ridicule and derision of the millions of Americans, who peacefully protested as part of the Tea Party or in townhalls, while he praises the much smaller, violent, and criminal Occupy Movement.
I hate him because he thinks that he is a better speechwriter than any speechwriter, a better policy director than any policy director, a better this than any that.
I hate him because he thinks "[He's] LeBron, baby!"
I hate him because he is conceited enough to tell people that "I have a gift."
I hate him because he believes paediatricians yank out children's tonsils for profit and doctors charge $50,000 to amputate a limb.
I hate him because he encourages the ignorant, desperate, and hopeless to believe that he will pay their mortgage, fill their gas tanks, make McDonalds' give them better hours, give them a new kitchen and second bathroom, give them some of his "stash," make them rich overnight, that Obamacare will "be like Christmas morning," that, unlike King Canute, he can control the level of the seas, heal the planet, fill Easter baskets, cause them to lose a couple of stone overnight and reverse their receding hairlines.
I hate him for being a False Prophet and instilling faux hope in people, who are destined to be crushed by him.
I hate him for leading people to believe that he actually cares about anything other than himself.
I hate him because he stupidly believes that gas prices are solely affected by the Great Recession.
I hate that he wants to be "more flexible" with a thug like Vladimir Putin.
I hate that he is unilaterally disarming the United States.
I hate that him for not speaking out against the human rights abuses in China, the Muslim world, Russia and elsewhere.
I hate him for criticising Bush's assault on civil liberties, then adopting all of those policies and going much further.
I hate that he demanded the power to indefinitely hold American citizens.
I hate that he believes that he has the right to assassinate whomever he pleases, including Americans, who have not been charged with any crimes whatsoever.
I hate him because he is a liar.
I hate him because he hates me.
I hate him for his support of the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist* organisations.
I hate him for his opaqueness.
I hate him for his treatment of Israel.
I hate him for believing that government can spend my money better than can I.
I hate him for teaching others that they are entitled to what is mine.
I hate him for his assault of religion freedom.
I hate him for telling his supporters that "voting is the best revenge." Revenge for what? What have I done to his supporters that I deserve their vengeance?
I hate him for choosing a buffoon like Joe Biden to be a heartbeat away, which he claims to be the best decision he has made.
I hate him for putting people like Eric "Nation of Cowards/Pardon for the Marc Rich, the biggest tax evader in the history of the country/FARC/NBPP/My People" Holder, Susan "Spontaneous Protest as a result of a vile video" Rice, Hillary "We're going to have that (filmmaker) arrested and prosecuted" Clinton, Communists like Van Jones, Socialists like Carol Browner, control freaks and totalitarians like Cass Sunstein, idolisers of dictators like Mark "the glorious revolution in Venezuela" Lloyd, taxcheats like Timothy Geithner, radicals like Valerie Jarrett, racialists like Hilda Solis, thugs like Rahm Emmanuel, David Axelrod, Jim Messina, and David Plouffe, etc, in government.
I hate him for allowing disgusting ad and accusations to be run and made against his opponents.
I hate him for making some pretty disgusting ad hominem attacks and accusations against his opponents himself. So, your opponents want “dirty air and water” and “want the elderly and kids with autism to fend for themselves,” President Obama? OK. With specificity, NAME THESE PEOPLE.
I hate him because he refuses to listen to the people. For example, the majority of Americans did not want and still do not want Obamacare; yet, he forced it down our throats anyway.
I hate him because he believes that only he "won" when the American people returned a Republican House to act as a brake on his radicalism and, evidently, want the parties to compromise, which means Obama doesn't get his way 100%.
I hate him because his rhetoric is inflaming an already angry and agitated people.
I hate his arrogance and smugness.
I hate him when he claims to be "offended" that anyone would question his administration...about anything.
I hate him for Benghazi.
I hate the inequitable way he has come to his economic and political achievements and his utter lack of humility (disguised behind transparently false modesty) at having done so.
I hate him for his divisiveness.
I hate him for his willingness - no, eagerness - to infect American society with the cancer of envy and hatred.

"While most people who meet Obama claim to like him, I suspect that, if I got to know him personally, I would hate him even more.
There seem to be quite a few of us Obama haters. I have friends, who have a viscerally hostile reaction to the sound of his voice or describe his existence as a constant oppressive force in their daily psyche nor is this phenomenon limited to my personal experience.
Yet, for all its pervasiveness, Obama hatred is described almost exclusively as a sort of incomprehensible mental affliction. Progressives have taken a special interest in the subject. Have Obama haters lost their minds? Certainly some have. Antipathy to Obama has, for example, led some conservatives and libertarians to oppose everything that the President says, including "Good morning." It has caused them to grab the tinfoil hats and double-secret decoder rings from the Bush haters and adopt some truly crazy beliefs to justify their own anger.
But, although Obama hatred can result in irrationality, it's not the product of irrationality. Indeed, for those not ideologically or personally committed to Obama's success, hatred for Obama is a logical response to the events of the last few years. It is not the slightest bit mystifying that libertarians and conservatives despise Obama. It would be mystifying if we did not.
Now, safely ensconced, Obama's dual goal is to prove that a President can "fundamentally transform" America in 8 years without EVER, EVER, EVAH! taking responsibility for ONE. SINGLE. THING. And, guess what? He's very likely to get away with it! Thank you, Praetorian Guards in the media. I hope that you liked getting screwed without the KY and have no problem with an administration that is now monitoring your activities online. 'Toopid 'tards!!!
OK, Progs, now that you have totally freaked and are screaming "Racist cunt! How dare she? No one ever wrote such filth about George W Bush (I didn't vote for him, btw). There should be laws against uttering such about the President (which is strangely the position that Chris Matthews has now adopted after his 8 years of stark, raving, batshyt crazy madness about Bush every weekday evening at 7 PM on MSNBC) and you should be investigated by the Secret Service!!!," please allow me to remind you of the very well-known article, "Mad About You: The Case For Bush Hatred," by the famous Progressive writer Jonathan Chait, which appeared in the equally famous Progressive magazine, The New Republic. It began with these 10 little words:
"I hate President George W. Bush. There, I said it."
Big kiss...

In a word: brilliant!
"I hate him for refusing to take responsibility for ANYTHING..."
Slight correction---How many times has he taken responibility for "bin laden is dead"? As if he had on his GI Joe Spec Ops gear and personally pulled the trigger?
Other than that, I'd give you a 12 out of 10!Keep up the great work!!
I still can't decide if his theme song is Liar by 3 Dog Night or Lyin' Eyes by the Eagles......
Fantastic, as usual. I look forward to your posts daily. I also love your Alison squashing!
