Mr. President, I feel hope-less (New York doorman turns on Obama)

Three years ago, Bryant Park Hotel doorman Greg Smith, 46, once a diehard supporter of the Clintons, put his life on hold to cam paign for Barack Obama. Shortly after The Post fea tured Smith's conversion on the front page in April 2007, Obama called the doorman and asked him to introduce him on the cam paign trail. Now, 18 months after Obama's inaugura tion, Smith says he's losing hope for the change he once believed in. He tells ANNIE KARNI his story.

Schadenfreude, etc...

My hope is that this guy and every other idiot that voted for Obama is and will continue to be unemployed.

“Obama has let professional politicians take over the White House — and our dream of change.”

He does not begin to get it. “Professional politicians” would not be setting out to destroy our country the way Obama is.

The doorman interviewed “stupidly.”

Socialism/communism has always been an ugly thing. Nothing more than slavery you can feel good about because of all of the warm and fluffy slogans that they attach to it.

Never elect a bisexual muslim Kenyan to do a man’s work.

What did he expect to be different? Was he going to magically receive the skill set required to move him past his current station in life? Maybe people were going to treat him better. Give him better tips. Trust me, my good man, when the government taxes the hell out of the so called “rich” they have less to spread around to people who need it.

I guarantee you he would vote for him again...in a heart beat!

[Kartographer]

That makes two black people who have made the news recently tell about how they are disappointed in Obama. But just remember just because two have come forward it doesn't mean that all blacks will be turning, it just means that two more blacks that are paying attention have turned.

Two years later, I'm living a more sober reality.

My life is not better. I'm a college graduate and I still can't get a good job.

I'm back working as a doorman at a Manhattan hotel earning peanuts because my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer and I need the health insurance again.

I share the same sentiments of Velma Hart, the woman who confronted Obama at a town hall last week, saying she was tired of defending him. The idea of leaving New York is even on the table.

Welcome to Obama’s HOPE and CHANGE!

What? YOU don't like Obama’s HOPE and CHANGE?

And you're BLACK?

Hmmmm maybe it's NOT about RACE THINK anymore?

Maybe it's OBVIOUS that Obama is a loser?

Even BLACKS are not enthusiased about Obama’s HOPE and CHANGE! Ah, maybe these two blacks are really RACISTS? Yes, to not agree with BLACK OBAMA makes them RACISTS too! Right?

From the comments this college graduate made, I’d say “doorman” may be his lifelong vocation.

[ladyvet]

Poor guy, I feel so sorry for him....NOT! Greg, you still sound like you've learned nothing from the experience. Still looking for the freebies. And I bet if Bambi flicked his eyes your way you would be on your knees singing his praise again.

[Roccus]

Hey Greg! Not to worry. I’m sure when he reads this, Zer0 will have ya over for a beer.
