Republicans, are you rethinking your unpatriotic political strategy of "hoping Obama fails" yet?

Thanks for asking that; it brought them out into the light for a moment before they scuttled back into the darkness.
It seems they are so far outa touch with reality they think Obama is taking them into some evil form of Communism.
WTF?
They'd be amusing if they weren't so sad.
They have NO idea how good Obama is for the USian image overseas.
He is bringing trust and honour back.
Bush was the worst enemy USians had since Richard Nixon but so many USians saw nothing wrong with him.
Thank 'god' the majority of y'all saw the light on the hill.

Wow, I didn't think you could find a more dense group than the Christians, maybe I was wrong.
I'm somewhat curious as to how one person can be compared to Karl Marx AND Hitler... Aren't they opposite ideas? Maybe I need to go back to college.
Mr. Mopar gets my vote of most hilarious ignorance and I'd like to ask, IF:
(1. a person who loves, supports, and defends his or her country and its interests with devotion.) Wouldn't your country's interests include YOUR president?
(2. a person who regards himself or herself as a defender, esp. of individual rights, against presumed interference by the federal government.) Wouldn't that include interference by the federal government into the personal lives and individual rights of homosexual families?
So it seems to me that YOU my friend are using your own definition of patriot. As I acknowledge your simple understanding of such things let me break it down for you:
Questioning your president = patriotic;
Wanting your president to fail = unpatriotic;
Defending individual rights against government interference = patriotic;
Promoting government interference into individual rights (even if they are "immoral" in your eyes) = unpatriotic.

One guy says it and you feel it is an entire group of people? Why, because you were told every one in the group feels the same? Are you really think for yourself or are you letting someone tell you what to believe? Come on, it was a guy that does things for ratings.

Somebody actually trotted out the dictionary definition of patriot? Golly gee, thanks, mister.
I am so tired of these fools trying to justify their nasty scorched earth policies in the name of defending our country against "Marxism". What a crock, straight out of the Joe McCarthy playbook.
Pathetic.

I have never been unpatriotic in my life.
Hussein needs to take a hike and take most of DC with him.
May they all fail and go to Christian Heaven.

What is unpatriotic with the desire to never see Marxism inflicted upon the American people? It is quite the opposite. It is quite patriotic to hope Obama fails with his Marxist agenda.

I would be unpatriotic if I wanted someone to succeed that has been sucking up to our enemies from day one, that has went on foreign soil and disparaged America, that bows down to a foreign kings, that needs his teleprompter to use the bathroom.

All I know is.....I was working a full week before he took office, and my husband had a job.
I'm not defending Bush (hoo-boy!)....but those are the facts.

It's unpatriotic to be against a liberal like Obama wanting to enslave millions of people to governmental control ? Like the homosexuals want to redefine marriage, I think you're attempting to redefine the word patriot. Let me show you what that definition is. According to this definition below from www.dictionary.com , it looks like Obama doesn't even qualify as a patriot. Pay special attention to the one about government control, and also notice that it says nothing about supporting a liberal immoral president like Obama. God bless.
patriot
–noun
1. a person who loves, supports, and defends his or her country and its interests with devotion.
2. a person who regards himself or herself as a defender, esp. of individual rights, against presumed interference by the federal government.

Pray tell how is hoping Obama fails and thus helping America unpatriotic?
