I absolutely hate this President yet i have reasons. As a democrat i believe pandering to your conservative base and banning things like gay marriage, stem cell research and flag burn burning is ridiculous at this point in time. There are men and women in Iraq right now fighting for our freedoms yet we have a man in a big comfy office trying to ban this? I hate flag burning too, but whatever happened to freedom of speech, the First Amendment. There are so many issues from domestic spying to no bid contracts, to being lied to about starting war, to banning civil liberties, to not taking care of this country. I said it in another post and ill say it again, there are millions of hungry children, millions of homeless, millions without healthcare(like me), a growing border issue, an education problem, and environmental catastrophe on our hands but we are banning gay and lesbian couples from marrying? The priorities aren't there for this president. We is not looking out for this country but he is looking out for himself, his conservative base and his religious followers. Its disgusting.
