There was a time in this country when, if the President was a good man, worked hard, and tried to do the greatest good for the greatest number of Americans, we stood behind him and supported his work.

And if he was a mediocrity, neglectful, incurious, made bad decisions, followed the advice of unreliable people, and deliberately did bad things to the people of America and the world at large, we opposed him, expressed our dissatisfaction, protested his perfidy, and voted against him in the next election.

These days, it seems the more good things President Obama does, the more bad people oppose him, obstruct him and disrespect him in the most filthy and despicable ways imaginable.

Not me.

I've got the President's back...
