Hatred for Obama

Thought for the day

Until this week I never really understood  the depth of  Republican hatred against Obama  was such  that they would wreck the American economy to defeat him.  I should have believed:
(1) Rush Limbaugh when he said after Obama was elected and before he assumed office “I hope Obama fails.” 
(2) Republican leaders who have been saying  for four years “our number 1 priority is to defeat Obama.”
(3) Romney when he said “he didn’t worry about 47% of Americans—the poor, retired and disabled.” 
(4) Ryan when he said “30% of Americans want to live off of welfare.”

The Bureau of Labor released its report showing total employment rose by 873,000 in September, 104,000 people were hired in non farm jobs, unemployed persons decreased by 456,000 to 7.8% the lowest in four years.

The 456,000 who got off unemployment the 104,000 who were hired in September are happy to be working and paying their bills along with thoughtful Americans who believe we should care for the poor the disabled and  the unemployed.

Republicans reaction to the Bureau of Labor September report--“Obama cooked the books.” 

Republican reaction to the Bureau of Labor reports showing unemployment  above 8% “Failed Obama economics”

Republican hatred of Obama and their desire to defeat him as president has been of such degree they have thrown 47%  of Americans---the poor and disabled under the bus along with Jim Leherer and Big Bird.
