WOULD THE COUNTRY RATHER HAVE A BULLY FOR PRESIDENT?

Would the country rather have a bully for President?  Why do people keep saying he is not acting like a Commander in Chief?  We had a loud mouth bully for eight years and I don't think Bush-43 was Presidential at all.  I, for one, think that Obama is doing a great job overall but I think he needs to fire his speech writers of late.  What he says is not what he has done or makes clear his intent and ability to help this country as he has been doing tactfully and, perhaps, too gently.  The man is damned if he does or doesn't do things.  He will be criticized regardless of what or how he does anything and whatever he does will be distorted and lied about, as it has been to date.  Above all, he should cut the recommendation that we all resort to prayer.  I really find that offensive.  He wasn't elected to use prayer as a solution and I know that, though he may personally pray, that is not his first choice as a solution to the country's problems.

Free speech is good.   Those who are using it to tell him what they would do if they were president know nothing about all the facts the president has or of the situations he is trying to handle. Of all those criticizing him, why is Sarah Palin allowed to give her advice on National TV?  The woman has no facts straight and is close to libeling the President as are many who speak out so publicly.  In fact, a headline and article on 6/2/10 wrote  "Obama uses bully pulpit to attack Republicans on the economy" The article was by Sam Youngman

While the Presidency is often referred to as a bully pulpit, I do not believe that the intention of the term 'bully' is as we use the term today.   Robert Reich spoke today about the President not expressing enough indignation. in his last speech.  When will people stop projecting what emotion they are feeling and assuming that it is appropriate for the President to behave as immaturely, seeming as out of control of his feelings.No one should ever deign to avow how another should express their emotions or what they should feel.  As a lawyer, the president has undoubtedly learned not to show emotions freely, if his early life had not trained him to do that first.

When will people allow the man to do his job before the revolution that seems to be happening becomes a bigger crisis than the economy, health care, the oil spill in the gulf of Mexico, and all the liars and sickos who think he is a Muslim, not a citizen, and not 'their' president.
