    Obama deserves his fair share of criticism, but going over the top and claiming that he single handedly ruined the country or that things were fine before he came into office are, depending on the creator of the video, either immature or delusional things to say.

    Plenty of that video is spot-on, but plenty is also factually incorrect.

    Just as so many people didn't know why they liked Obama and decided to vote for him, so many people don't know why they don't like Obama. They just know that they do or they don't and try to write fairy tales that conform to their prejudice.

    In particular, it's pretty ignorant to refer to him as a "socialist". His policies have been solidly corporatist, just like the guy before him and just like any likely successor.

    Ah, you don't get it. "My person" is way different, they even tell me so. It's "Your Person" who does the bad things. Watch, I'll show you; *takes a meandering course through political history hop scotching around and amazingly finds that* See!? It's all "Those People's" fault and coincidentally they have "This" letter after their name. All that's good in America came from "These People" that have "That" letter after their name.

    Pick your letter.

    I swear I've heard the narrator's voice before... I think he's done some voice work reading some of Lincoln's speeches. If not, the two guys sound an awful lot alike!
