Before I do anything else and once again forget this thought, President Obama was quoted last week as saying, “They treat me like a dog,” or something of that nature, and the words he spoke were a quote from a Jimmy Hendrix song, which is neither here nor there, but, he was referring to his Republican counterparts in the House and Senate as treating him like a dog. As I’ve stated before, I am no ardent fan of Conservatives but I do advocate their being a lesser evil to the wellbeing of this country. Therefore, it is infuriating to me to hear such an uncreative and desperate comment like that from a man who fills the seat of President of this great country. What is really sad is that I think he honestly believes it when, more than likely, it is a simple truth that Republicans will not give him an inch edgewise because they disagree with his intentions and the constituents that so many Senators and House members represent don’t want his vision either. My point is, Barack Obama is not being discriminated against or treated disrespectfully because of his personality; it is because the majority of people disagree with him and fears the direction he is taking America into. His ideas are not shut down because Republicans and everyday American citizens are bullies. We just completely disagree with him. It is as simple as that. If my dog could somehow speak to me and posit some of the intentions Barack Obama has for this country I would press and rub his nose into the proverbial urine he was dispelling on my red, white and blue carpet to let him know that his actions were unacceptable. Now that that thought has come full-circle, perhaps he was right to say he was being treated like a dog. Come November, he will be locked up in the bathroom until he is trained to behave like his American family. After all, no president is our King, Monarch or Despot. He is our servant and we are his masters. Barack Obama and his democratic entourage have bit their master’s hand and November will hopefully be a meaningful result of discipline towards misbehavior.
