I wonder how many anti-Bu$h books there are compared to anti-Obama books. Additionally, I wonder if Glynnis would have even phrased Bu$h hater books the same way.

Hating Obama? My, the Left is in such denial. The policies coming out of the White House have been a disaster. I’m sure the President is a decent man. But you can like him personally and still see the incompetence and failure of his administration. The spin in this article is just one more sign that the Left is unwilling to take ownership for its own disastrous agenda, and is thus determined to demonize anyone who disagrees with their failed social engineering schemes. Grow up, progressives, and stop reducing everything to mud-slinging and name-calling. We object to your policies, and the longer you hide behind these smokescreens, the worse you will fare at the ballot box.

I know, don’t hate but my thought is once agin how many actual Bu$h hater books are out there now.

Fair point. Another important point that Glynnis doesn’t mention is what were the unemployment numbers for Bu$h two years in, what was the deficit and what was the debt. At the two year mark, Bush had high approval numbers while Obama….mmmmm….not so much.

I really miss the Bush years. Everyone was so civil and respectful.

It’s not hating Obama, it’s loving freedom!!!!

Avlon is a moron with amnesia. His argument is laughable.

Bush at his first mid-term had a 70% approval following 9/11. So you can’t compare the two. The anti-Bush meme would not have worked (but they made up for it in his second term, twofold).

On the other hand, Obama has the lapdogs in the media that Bush never had. His coronation (and his partisan tone) was so over the top that the slide down is even more delicious for conservatives.

And in a mere 18 months has jammed through a far left liberal agenda on a country that is 80% non-liberal according to the most recent Gallup poll. (42% conservative, 36% moderate, 22% liberal).

Obviously the pushback is going to be severe. But nice spin.

@More Libery—There are to damn many to count .I stopped at 48.

Death of a President (2006)

Years after the assassination of President George W. Bush in Chicago, an investigative documentary examines that as-yet-unsolved crime.

Maybe it is that people are reading up on the lightweight now instead of reading his self serving books that drove his run to the top and saying stuff, like, who the hell is this guy really? Now they have a taste and are doing the investigation that should have been done long before he fooled everyone. I mean, for Gods sake, throw away everything else and his work experieince should disqualify him immediately.

Any experience running a large matrixed organization, nope.
Ever met a payroll? Ah, nope.
Ever submitted a Business plan?. Nope, may have edited one though.
Ever had your own business? Nope
Ever worked for a corporation, private entity? Nope.
Ever managed a cross functional team, set performance plans, mapped processes, responded to a customer service call? Ah Nope.
Ever made a cold call? Sure a load.

Wait a minute now, I WAS A CIVIL RIGHTS lawyer for about 10 years. So a Community organizer with a Badge huh?

Oh oh and , and I wrote a book about my Dad and something that was inspiried by my pastor.

You are Hired!

This arrogant man has had two books , allegedly by him , about himself . If the media had done it’s job before the election , the public would already have known what they were bringing down upon themselves .

Cancon’s list can be extended and now that Obummer’s crotchety cranky nature is being exposed more openly on a daily basis, we can ask if Barry Soetero actually wrote his own autobiography without being subjected to an eyeball roll.

The guy never lost an election and now his clock is getting thoroughly cleaned on a microscopic examination to discover why its moving parts don’t manage to tell the time correctly. Barry looks like Jimmy Carter, with more charm and a better jump shot, but still a one-termer.

Maybe they’re using the term “hating” as in “haters gonna hate”?

I’m really very very ready for the election season to be over.

Let’s see. President Bush was in office for eight years. President Obama has been in office for one-fourth of that time. But, then, once again, you obfuscate the issue. When you cannot rationally discuss the issue at hand, you change it by attacking Mediaite.

Why don’t liberal books sell? Don’t liberals read?

This is exceptionally obfuscated. More to the point, what did President Bush inherit, and what did President Obama inherit? And after the two year mark, President Bush had 9/11 to unite the country. More to the point, what were President Bush’s numbers after the Iraq War turned out to be terribly botched by Mr. Rumsfeld?

Actually, as an educated person, I refuse to read any tripe that intends to totally demean one side, no matter which side. I would rather read something by an historian of note. For example, there is “A. Lincoln” by Ronald White, “FDR” by Jean Edward Smith, “Truman” by David McCullough. These are great books by great historians, about three great presidents. They tell me how a great man thinks, how a great man builds consensus, how a great man acts. (And it also shows how great men can fail.) Quickie books that are hit and run, disparaging liberals, or disparaging conservatives, really are not very informative. That is why I do not read any of the hundreds of books by the political pundits out there today. The overwhelming majority of them are opinion-based, and not fact-based. And serve only to divide us all that much more.

I was thinking the same thing. I think the anti G.W. Bush books numbered in the 100s!!!

Some People want to deny that they hate Obama because he’s black to the brink of either questioning his mental state to insulting supporters intelligence by turning supporting the president as anti-american and making America stupid by believing that the people who got us into this mess are responible now. also spouting continuos lies about him and his policies like calling him a socialist when full-blown socialists know he’s not one to the fact that 11% percent of tea partiers admit they’re racists and will vote against Obama because of it to questioning his eligibility to be president. Racism is alive and well and has played a factor to opposition to Obama and i’m not playing the race card, i’m stating the facts. someone said that America wasn’t ready for an African-American President and this and everywhere else proves it.

Liberals are the ones writing the books, genius.

WE are the professors.

WE are the educated.

So, 11% = 100% now? This screaming of “RACISM” by the left bothers me, not because I’m some evil white racist (I’m not even white), but because I am a black person who has voted for black candidates in the past, and all of a sudden because I’m not bending over for Barack, I’m suddenly a member of the KKK?

That’s complete BS.

“It’s also evidence that the proliferation of Obama Derangement Syndrome has out-paced Bush Derangement Syndrome—big time.”

That’s simple to understand. The Obama backlash is fueled largely by racist reactionaries, although they will deny their racism and pout.

Bush cared less and did nothing about the huge and accelerating national debt, but the debt hawks in the tea party said nothing, organized nothing. What’s the difference? Obama is black…and a Democrat. The Arkansas Project didn’t hold a candle compare with the nasty and deceitful vitriol that C. Moore pointed out.

Kitsune, nothing you wrote doesn’t mean that you’re not an Uncle Tom. Why are you not bending over for Obama? Has he disappointed you, or are you just a right wing black man to start with?
