You people hate Obama

[RecycleMichael]

Nope, both were still in office.  Bush’s visit was, 2008 to OKC, Cheney either ’07 or ’08.  They ran his motorcade the wrong way up 2nd St.  It was so refreshing to see hipsters flipping off our VP.  Spoke quite well for Oklahoma, don’t you think?

I believe there were no public events on that 2008 trip. He flew in to Tinker Air Force base, talked to reporters, then went to a private home to fundraise for John McCain.

Obama came to Oklahoma for a public appearance and to make a speech on energy policies.

I believe there is a difference in protocol for different type of events.

West Virginia must REALLY hate Obama:

It's West Virginia.  A lot like Oklahoma.

Oklahoma democrats ran an incarcerated, convicted felon against Obama? I missed that story. Rather than finding an excuse to run down our state, perhaps next time you could just laugh at a funny story.

West Virginia must REALLY hate Obama:

Obama's lack of popularity in West Virginia is well documented writes Elizabeth Hartfield of ABC News: "The state's governor Earl Ray Tomblin and its junior senator Joe Manchin, both Democrats, have kept their distance from the president."

This is mainly due to Obama's environmental and energy policies (skin color) incurring the wrath of West Virginia's coal industry (uneducated masses).

Republicans called the Judd garnered embarrassing.  "Keith Judd's performance is embarrassing for Obama and our great state," outgoing West Virginia GOP Chairman Mike Stuart told the AP.

Mitt Romney won the GOP primary in West Virginia with more than 69 percent of the vote.

Not the felon...just a commentary on how we do a whole lot of the same type of stuff - really stupid, ignorant things the make all companies out there want to drop everything and move here so they can join in.

And yeah, it was a funny story.  Like our personhood bill story.  


As for convicted felon, incarcerated elections - no, not against Obama - we had that back a few years ago with the county commissioner "scandal".  Only in Oklahoma, it wasn't a scandal, it was just "boys will be boys"....  So, yeah, I guess we do have pretty much the exact same kind of stupid, so the comparison holds.

And it really ISN'T running down our state when stupid things we do are pointed out.  It is bringing to light an area for improvement.

Maybe if you posted some Oklahoma stupidity coming from the left. It's almost like this state is the straw man to bash conservatives or what some believe. Also, maybe if there were more positive threads as well about us, or some of its great people, then my perspective might change.

The left here is moderate elsewhere.

Take a good gander at our state and federal reps.

Pop some meaningful positive threads about Oklahoma.  Please.

Now that the President has said he supports gay marriage I can't imagine how angry Jesus will be in the Southern Baptist churches this week.

I'll start working on more. Hard to overlook the porn thread...

And his Daughters helped change his mind. What else can this man be convinced of? and by whom?

And my spelling inability continues.

"Whom"

You're a target rich environment, sir.  Ending a sentence with a preposition... Ay Yah

edited to say:  BTW, I'm absolutely kidding with you.  I use cuss words as most of my nouns and descriptives.  I have no room to talk.

So he’s a flip-flopper now.

As far as why Obama is hated in West Virginia has a lot to do with how he said he intends to hobble the coal industry.

...and "He diffrunt dan us."

That's the reason imo.

I would think that coming up with ways to continue using coal while not paying the enormous environmental cost would be a good thing for West Virginia (and Wyoming).
