Related: About this forumTired of Hearing It!
By Dave WhitneyIf I hear it one more time I think Ill puke: Hes not my President!
I am tired of hearing this in reference to President Barack Obama, especially since last falls election.
Let me qualify myself in relation to that: I did not vote for Obama but he is My President.
Thats the way our system works. Obama won, all the others lost.
Obama deserves the same respect as President as any other person who has been or will be elected to the nations highest office.

No matter how loud you say it President Obama, the change you have proposed to the Consumer Price Index is bad for Seniors, for Veterans, and for Goverment retirees. ,It only helps fat cat wealthy donors who want to avoid paying back the social security contributions stolen by the general fund ever since Gerald Ford and keep taxes low for the rich.
President Obama should be ashamed. I say this as one who worked hard two times to get him elected.
