Is anyone else sick of all the republican whining and complaining about every...

[Geo]

...little thing? I have been following politics on and off for about two and a half years now, and from what I recall there wasn't such a degree of backlash for Bush's actions as there is now. In some cases, people who criticized that corrupt administration were deemed to hate America and were called unpatriotic.

Ever since Barrack Obama has been president it seems like every little thing he does gets a huge amount of unnecessary criticism. The thing that really annoys me though, is that half the time people with opposing views fail to come up with a logical and rational response.

PS: I am not a liberal, I would consider myself an independent as I don't align my beliefs to a specific party but rather towards specific issues.

Also, I am not trying to imply that anyone should withhold their freedom of speech, but just because they said it doesn't mean I have to listen to it. This is only something I have noticed lately, so sorry if you take offense to it.
Did half of you even read the question?

I said "there wasn't such a degree of backlash for Bush's actions as there is now".

Obviously liberals did the same thing to Bush. But it is nowhere near as bad as now hence why I stated the level of criticism.
Also Erica, your answer is laughable. No where in my question did I claim to be an expert in the field of politics.

And by you saying "except we actually have a point." is further proving my point.

2 and half years... ooohhhh you must be an expert in politics.

Both parties complain about a President that is from the opposing party... where have you been?! The Libs criticized Bush's every move.

Now it's our turn... except we actually have a point.

I agree with you, but you have to admit, the republicans have whining and umbrage down to a science.

Ah, I miss those Bush days too when they just crammed legislation down congress's throat or in the night or in some back room (like the bailout).

And I think it's perfectly alright that you say you're not a liberal yet still defend your principles and call out (some) conservatives. We need more people thinking like that.

you mean like the libs did for the last 8 years?
