8. If you're asking for lock step acquiescence to Obama

I'll have to decline.

There seems to be three crowds here, one thinks he walks on water(I'm exaggerating, a little), the other seems to think he's a devil plant (I'm exaggerating, a little). The middle crowd doesn't like some of the things he's done, or not done. I'm that crowd. I've defended him, I've criticized him.

To the devil plant crowd, nobody will ever be pure enough, but that being said, one thing I'm not going to do is give up my right to criticize because of the purity crowd. Of course, the walk on water crowd always says there's a time and place, like somewhere in a free speech zone, far away.
