You're a genius.

Well please show me increased world cooperation, Iran rolls on. Russia is cozying up with Chavez. Afghanastan is getting worse as is Iraq.

They're clueless. They have a right to their opinion, but it's really wishful thinking on their part to believe that the majority of the world shares their hatred of Obama.

The poll was taken by the BBC, actually, but I guess that unless it was conducted by a right-wing organization, it will be dismissed by most Republicans.

They hate us not all the money they get just for landing on the soil . Did you know that some ' refugees' make over $50,000 a yr just for being poor and ignorant ?

Do you know how much mony some get for every kid they have ? In my dr.s office the secretary said nobody would come close to believing what kinds of money they get .

He is a failure as a president, and a failure as a man...!

Could you imagine inviting them for a sleepover in the Lincoln Bedroom where many ditators,pervert and other un-disirables have slept ? I pity the poor fly on that wall .

They like us more? Maybe the Muslim countries that he went and bowed down before. I hope they realize he was not bowing for me. What kind of leader boes down to another leader?

He is bending over backwards and spreading his cheeks for the muslim countries. Amazine, he does not want to help Israel, yet he wants to lick these countries bungholes?

This guy you call your president is a sham and a lame duck in office.
He bows, he refuses to visit US Soldiers grave sites in other countries so he doesn't "offend" them? Who the heck does he think he is?

He is a complete and utter failure. He still in over a year has not done anything for the good of this country or the middle class. His first lie started with his first speech that started out Hello, my name is Barack Obama......

That's because Obama has apologized to most of them.

Is that all you have is to call people "0bama haters" and that these "haters" like it when the world "hated" America?

Misery loves company, so the more America is beaten down, and the poorer we are, and the more like socialist Europe we become, the more the world will like us.

It's a form of international class envy, just like the left in this country despise the "rich" simply for being successful and doing well in life, so too does socialist Europe hate the wealth and independence of America. So when 0bama denigrates America, destroys wealth, incurs an exploding national debt and helps continue more unemployment, the more we feed the schadenfreude of the world's class warfare "haters".

They hate it when the music they listen to comes from America.
They hate it when the computers and and new gadgets like the iPad they use come from America.
They hate it when the movies they watch come from America.
They hate it when they see so much of what they like is coming from America.
They hate it when America is the country that comes to their rescue after a natural disaster.
They hate it when America saved them in WWI & WWII.
