For now, I cannot express my opinions about the new president because he was just recently elected yesterday and I don't know him that much so it's better to wait for his actions to change something for the good of America. That will be up to me if I'll eventually hate him or not if he made mistakes of fulfilling his duty as a new president.

I did not vote for him. When he makes things worse, my conscious is clear.
Let's see if we can't get at least one thing straight here. The media loves whoever gets asses on the couch and clicks on the mouse and quaters in the newstands. America loves Barack Obama and the media feeds off that. If America loved John McCain as much as Obama, then everyone would be calling the media racist and saying that they gave McCain the election.
That's not to say there isn't a liberal media bias. But that accusation can't be made unless the people making it are prepared to admit that there is also a conservative media bias. For every Sean Hannity or Bill O'Reilly or Rush Limbaugh there's a Bill Maher or a Keith Olbermann or a Jon Stewart. This is because for ever dollar a liberal spends, there's a conservative out there with a buck in his pocket, too.
Every republican that uses that obnoxious argument does exactly what that talking point was created to do; which is to pretend their always the underdog and their battle is always an uphill one and the whole world loves an underdog so every republican victory is just that much sweeter. It's a bullshit argument.
Re: Eventually, we will all hate Obama too
Originally posted by Grand-Moff-GavI'd say the article takes a realist point and pushes it clear to excessive pessimism. We'll all hate Obama because anti-Americanism is inevitable? I don't think so...
An interesting little article this one:What are your thoughts?
