Has any US President ever been as consistent as Obama when it comes to dividing the nation?

I mean, if he's not taking aim at the "wealthy", he's slamming the republicans.

He uses the words "them" to describe other Americans more than any president I can remember.

And I'm not espousing the right-leaning Foxnews viewpoint here.

This is an observation from all sources.

You're as likely to here him denegrating the republicans on MSNBC as you are anywhere else.

It's no secret that I disagree with his politics. That's not unique.

But to watch him systematically divide the country with an "us vs them" mentality??

Bush was vilified for his "you're either with us or against us" message (please note, he never uttered these words specifically, but the message was similar).

Why, then, does Obama get a pass for using the same rhetoric? Especially since it's actually WORSE because he's pitting Americans against each other.

By economic class.

By political affiliation.

And by default, by color.

Four more years?

WTF are the left thinking?

The other interesting question is, have we been permanently divided along ethnic/socio-economic lines and will a caucasian ever be elected to office when his racial demographic is the minority?

I don't think arguing the tax codes is really class warfare, I think it's pure politics. I want my people represented even if it is at the expense of yours.

Too bad in my case my people means semiretarded obese midgets. But hey wheel and I need to stick together.

You've been pelted with class warfare from Obama and his cronies for so long that you now fail to even recognize it.

The term 99% should be copyrighted by Obama.

Honestly though, I only hit the hightlights.

Just listen to a speech by Obama. ANY speech.

He talks about the conservatives like they're an enemy.

I understand this type of talk during an election. But he's done it for 3+ years now and he's not on a campaign trail just yet.

And when people like you simply accept it as "pure politics" then he's done his job.
