I think that President Obama's approval rating will go up as the Republican field narrows.

1. That may be so, but his signing into law of indefinate detention of detainees that are citizens

extending a version of extraordinary rendition -- that Bush inspired sort of fascist kidnapping that ignores habeas corpus and other crucial elements to making our legal system fair means I regret voting and working for him on the grass roots level the last election.

I am voting third party and am proud to be a Pacific Green party member. I am very angry and disdainful of Obama. I have no use for the man.

5. You mean that as a joke in a tongue in cheek way; but as an activist, I have no doubt...

... this crappy Bush-like measure Obama signed into law could indeed cost me dearly in just that way.

16. Then you might want to cover your tracks ... after all, this entire site could be ...

Obama's attempt to find you.

JURY RESULTS

A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Sun Jan 8, 2012, 09:59 PM, and voted 2-4 to LEAVE IT ALONE.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: DU has permitted Green Party members to participate in the past. The poster's refusal to support Obama does not mean that he/she wouldn't vote for another Democrat.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT and said: Poster's need to go use someone else's bandwidth to push their third party bullshit.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Disagrees strongly with OP, but not rude.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT and said: OK to voice objections to the policies and actions of the POTUS, but not to advocate for third parties.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: this post states the poster's opinion and future intention - it may not be in line with my opinions, but we are not here to censure opinions - free speech and all that

Thank you.

10. Oh it will!

[nobodyspecial]

11. Boy, I remember when the jury pool was trumpeted as a way of silencing Greens and Progressives

Now they are allowed to openly advocate without any consequences. Oh well. I'm sure the GOP will help them further their goals.

All for pathetically repeated incorrect memes. What a freaking joke.
