Go ahead, be proud and public that you are voting for and support Obama. Why do you resort to anger and name-calling when someone points you out?
It has been proven that this movement is being used as a vehicle for Obama's re-election along with moveon.org, and instead of simply denouncing your support for Obama you resort to name-calling
I voted for Obama. He has been a big disappointment. I see little difference between him and most other politicians.
My experience exactly (see my earlier comment for more details).

What do you expect from a CIA agent whose parents and grandparents were also CIA?
These people aren't liberals. They are leftists. Huge difference, leftists can't stand libs and are more likely to associate with the anarchists. Just sayin... they don't like the liberals.
I don't know if that's entirely accurate, I think a lot of people are disappointed by his term so far. I think all these people taking to the streets shows that we have, in a way, lost faith in his ability or willingness to pursue the "change" that we feel we were promised. If people thought that their government was representing them fairly they would not use their bodies for over a month as a vehicle for political expression.

Well put, "Thoreaux42". The OWS Movement is in fact the expression of a collective LOSS OF FAITH in a President who betrayed his supporters at practically ALL levels.
Obama must secretly hate the OWS Movement, because it is basically telling him to his face : "NO YOU CAN'T - OR WON'T - BUT "WE THE PEOPLE" CAN!!!"
Just think of how humiliating that must be for a narcissist like Obama. On this little-publicized character trait of his, go to Dr. Sam Vaknin's site and scroll down:

This movement is meant to help reelect Obama? I though we were trying to end corporate greed. How silly of me.
