Some positive things to say about Obama.

Obama's first four years…. I’ve been thinking about some positive things to say. I can say that it’s exciting to have the first African American president. I find him to be a likeable guy. I actually prefer his way of communicating to that of someone like Jesse Jackson. I find Obama refreshing. He is a good, trustworthy family man who I am sure is faithful to his wife. I have tried to think of a few positive, proactive accomplishments over the past 4 years. I can’t think of any. Can you?

I've never voted for him and I don't like too many of his policies, but he does seem to be a genuinely decent and interesting person. I think it would be nice to sit down and have a beer together.

I would rather have a beer with Bush; you are guaranteed to laugh your ass off!
Obama would probably kick my ass at chess and would have more substance to talk about. The only problem is execution, it's not there; maybe he's too timid. Maybe I could beat him at chess after all...

Of 300,000,000+ Americans, I find the one you choose to compare him with extremely telling...

I admire his seemingly endless supply of hope that enables him to keep trying to fix the economy by enacting policy after policy of spending money we don't have. A normal human being would have given up on the idea after four years of failure and outcomes contrary to his predictions, but not President Obama. He goes to work every day determined to stay the course of implementing the failed policies of the past, in defiance of all criticism.

One can't help but respect such stubborn single-mindedness and seemingly illogical sense of dedication to his ideological vision. He is truly a beacon of hope for the hopeless among us.

You really are a freakin' drama queen.

But I do admire your

single-mindedness
and intractable advocacy of all things NRA and conservative regardless of how silly it makes you look.

Carry on.

You're not a small town lawyer per chance?
