Forgetting the the office of the president represents all the people of the United States. I hate him as a president because of that very thing. Democrats and Republicans will do what they do, hopefully having a balance. When that balance is there, the government works better, I have nothing against the democrats or the GOP, what I have a problem with is a President that is not doing his job and representing all the FOLKS. Look back at past speeches and listen how he puts down the GOP every chance he gets, those are representatives of the people, he has become the leader of the democratic party, not the president of the United States.
Any president that refuses to listen to the other side of things is ignoring the will of the people, anyone that thinks that's ok is wrong
Reagan worked with Tip O'Neil to fix a lot of stuff
Clinton worked with Republicans to balance a budget and several other things
Barry barely talks to the other side

He hasn't tried to work with the other side only in the eyes of conservatives. Shutting down the government because you don't get everything you want is not being agreeable. In what world have Republicans wanted to work with Obama? They stated from the outset that they'd be blocking everything he tried to do, and they've followed through on that. They've played 100% politics for the last 5 years, totally disregarding the will of the American people. It's been a nonstop circus of obstructionist antics.
Obama has basically given them an olive branch with immigration reform as a cause they could take up to improve their standing with the public --- and they've squandered that chance, with only one work day left ion Congress. Do you even know about that situation? Probably not. Can they actually do anything besides try to lower taxes and be against anything that looks like progress?
They lost the goddamn election and think they're still in charge, and think the country on their side on all of their backward ass ideals and values that basically involves keeping things as they are, or moving backwards socially and fiscally. You're obviously in the same bubble they are. I watch Fox News, so I know about all of the misinformation you guys get fed on a daily basis. Don't even try to say you're neutral. It's very obvious you're not, so just own it.
