And you goal was to shot down any answer that didn't fit in with "I blame Obama and democrats for everything." Hell, you almost admitted to not believing redlining existed. What's the point of having a discussion if you are going to irrationally attack opposing views.
Every example given would have either happened regardless of Obama being in office or from members who did not have correct information and was repeating it. For example, they believe that Obama is clean of anything that has to do with the housing crash but they are wrong. but I am sure that is what the democrats would want you to believe.

The girl who will graduate as an RN again, would have a job. I know, it was that way LONG before Obama. I know someone who got himself in trouble (underwater house) but can not get any help even if to refinance it to a lower interest rate.

My point is since people are so dead set that Obama is so great I am asking what has improved as a direct result of Obama. I just don't see it. I see alot of hate from the left. Alot of accusations that if you do not agree then you are racist. I've never seen such disgusting politicking as I have seen from this administration. Why are people so convinced. What am I missing?

I really haven't seen much of that. I've just seen that people are glad he's not Mccain, Palin, Romney or Ryan.

Oh and I'll say it for the millionth time, people aren't going to call you racist if you disagree with Obama, only if you say racist things or have a documented history of saying racist things.

Who's calling you a racist? Just like a typical right always thinking someone is calling you a racist when we say we don't agree with you and that it seems you have no idea what certain terms mean.

No it's not. I guess you are not familiar with the term code words. Are you?

And just to keep count, you were the first to mention race.

So let me get this straight, you poorly run a "business" and can't afford your employees and will have to lay someone off and that is Obama's fault because you can't man up and take responsibility for not running your "business" better. Maybe you can contact your Congressman and see if they will give you a bailout.

It is a personality complex, where people think they are being attacked or critisized even when they are not.

It's easy to blame eveyone but yourself, but one day you need to pull yourself together and take responsiblity of your own actions. I am tired of seeing people cry and whine about everything and blame everyone.
