Only in this way could his Presidency possibly be measured a "success".
Why, the very PINNACLE of patriotism, don't you recall.
That was then, this is now. We're 'Changed®'.
You are not a patriot if you don’t want Obama to succeed.
OK.......then please define what an Obama success will look like????
Obama will get the same respect the left gave George W Bush....and Sarah Palin.
In all the previous inaugurations, I didn’t see anything approaching this. Could it be that the MSM know that zero is totally over his head?
Succeed at WHAT?
If it is to make this country more secure and prosperous, a place where individual liberties are maximized by a government hierarchy that understands its limited role in our society, as intended by the Founding Fathers, then YES, OF COURSE I wish him success.
OTOH, if he is going to attempt to socialize our economy, weaken our defenses, destroy the First and Second Amendments, force us to go green no matter the cost and no matter the validity of the exercise, and assorted other touchstones of the anti-American Left (/oxymoron), then HELL NO, I DON’T SUPPORT HIM.
I wish my nation and fellow citizens success in their respective endeavors. I do not wish politicians success, when success is defined by their personal agenda and such agenda is not in the best interests of this nation.
The Leftards simply don’t understand the concept of “loyal opposition.” Their behavior during Bush’s 8 years was horrible - even from supposedly sober people like the leaders of the Congress. Now, of course, they think that we should all line up to support Obama with no questions asked. I won’t do that, and I’m not sorry about it. I want what is best for the USA, and if that means opposing Obama and his minions every step of the way, then I’m ready, willing and able.
Well, he’s halfway to “success”.
He has the “suck” part nailed.
That depends upon what he should be successful. Am I a patriot if I wish for Uncle Hussein to succeed in turning our nation more towards the very clear and concise goals put forth by the Soviet Communists to destabilize the USofA? I think not.
I don’t support baby-killers of either part, you media cretins.
They’ll probably make an exception for those willing to buy a lifetime paid subscription to the paper.
I don’t support baby-killers of either part, you media cretins.
Whatever happened to dissent is patriotic?
Oh right, a democrat is president now.
I’m all for him succeeding at protecting our nation and constitution.
Given he’s wholesale dedicated to
shredding our Constitution and destroying our nation; our welfare; our way of life; our Judeo/Christian substrate;
. . . no way do I wish him the slightest success in such goals and efforts.
No way. THAT would be TREASON.
I wish the Buckwheat presidency well. That’s about all I can muster for the moment. His agenda, however, when its finally revealed, may change that radically.
I don’t want Obama to succeed. He cheated his way to the very top, spitting on our Constitution and hiding his true self. I hope he falls flat on his face. No good can come of his administration.
I can’t say I disagree in principle...why would you want the President to fail? I hope he’s a great president. I have my doubts, but there’s nothing to be gained if the country falls apart even more.
The best thing for our country would be for Zero to crash and burn very quickly
every republican should wish him as much success as the libs wished GWBush
i just heard ‘today, we will have our first african-American president’
considering his kenyan birth, that takes on a whole new meaning. africa has performed a coup on the US (ok, maybe not africa... but soros doesn’t have his own country, yet.)
A patriot of which country?
Those little pissants at the Dallas Morning News Editorial Board can kiss my red, white and blue ass. If I don’t want this marxist POS to succeed in turning our nation into a collective state, that’s my right. F*** them.
