I didn't realise it was this severe. I guess this explains why you were on the defensive about my posts. I hope you don't think I have that Obama Derangement Syndrome.
To be honest, I haven't read every post in this thread. I did see some negativity, but that was more about policy, rather than the man himself!
As for why would you not post it, I don't know. I just wanted the know the purpose of it! What you wanted to achieve. For example, if you posted the acceptance speech to illustrate him being noble and gentlemen like about accepting such a prize, I would have understood.

You've only heard good things about Obama in the left-wing media because they have tossed out any pretense of objectivity and are covering up his blunders and faults, of which there are many. They simply refuse to report any of it, you need to go to alternative sources to find out what's really going on. There is indeed a great deal of opposition to Obama's radical agenda, and the man himself. In much of the country, he is not well liked at all, and I expect that anger to grow by leaps and bounds if Cap and Tax, govt-run healthcare and govt-funded abortions, amnesty for illegal aliens, handouts to leftist organizations like ACORN, appointing corrupt czars, bailouts, and a failure to turn the economy around continues for the rest of his term...
