Please give us your reasons. Be specific on issues of policy and executive decisions that you disagree with and what you would like to see done differently in the next four years. Cite laws promoted and enacted under Obama that you don't like or feel are ineffective or misguided, or offensive. Try to refrain from incendiary rhetoric that doesn't help promote an intelligent and persuasive point of view. Consider Executive-Legislative relations, and if you have an opinion on Judicial appointments, voice it. Think of the various cabinets and the programs their Secretaries have been pursuing and comment on them. Tell us whether you voted for Obama in 08 or not.

Current Obama supporters, remain silent.

I voted for Obama in 2008. I did so with the hope he would sweep in and get rid of the banksters (to an extent, of course), reign in fraud on Wall Street, get rid of Bernanke and prosecute anyone who could be tied to the crash (of which there were a few).

Instead, he put in Geithner, Summers, reappointed Bernanke, did not do anything to prosecute thieves like Corzine, allowed Dodd-Frank to pass (even cheered it), and continued the same ol' as Bush had done. He continued, and even exacerbated the issue with joke projects like Stimulus, and encouraging more wall street financing through projects like QE.

1. Not bringing one single person to justice for the economic collapse. Not one!
2. Wasting two years on a health care plan that does nothing to address health care costs.
3. Complete lack of focus on creating business initiatives for job programs.
4. Playing politics with the energy program. Denying the start up of the pipeline work.
5. Failure to provide the leadership required to get a budget passed thereby putting us at risk of a government induced recession.
6. Continueing a wasted effort in Afganistan.

To hit the high points. There are other things, mostly chicken shit stuff which are neither here nor there to me.

Tell Why You Oppose The Re-election of Obama

Because:

Obama believes it's okay to murder babies.

Obama believes it's okay for a man to marry another man.

Obama believes it's okay to confiscate more of your money because he doesn't understand that we have a spending problem, not a revenue problem.

For me it was the Affordable Health Care Act.

Any president that would sign a bill as far reaching as this one, that did not have a single vote from the opposition party. That tells me everything.

Every single controversial bill in the past had bipartisan support. Civil rights; Social Security; Medicare/Medicaid. They all had at least some opposition support. This bill had none. The president should never have signed for that reason alone. He's not president of just those that elected him.

For me, I have never in my life seen a president as partisan as Obama.
