Conservatives, do you think Obama is evil or just misguided?
I get the feeling that many people think Obama secretly hates America and is seriously trying to destroy it the best he can. Even if you don't like Obama, and don't agree with his policies, can you at least concede that his actions are based on what he thinks is best for the country, even if he might turn out to be wrong?
Be reasonable. I was not a fan of George W. Bush, but I never doubted that his decisions were based on what he thought would best serve America and its people. I just thought he often made bad decisions based on the fact that my world view was different than his. Can you relate?

I don't think he's evil at all. He is slightly misguided, but mostly he's just incompetent.

Obama is just basically ignorant. And narcissistic. He admits to knowing nothing about math and economics yet he is making decisions from poor advice that are leading us no where.
I doubt he could even define the word "prosperity" and what the basics are to make our economy grow.
EDIT: "The economy must add 13.3 million jobs over the next three years -- 375,000 jobs each month -- to bring the unemployment rate down to 6% [equal to Bush's worst year], notes economist Peter Morici. That means GDP growth must be running at a 4% to 5% pace, not the pathetic 1.8% [recently 2.8%] rate it’s running at now, a pace that has been trending downhill since last year."
Obama doesn't even have a plan, nor does he care about reducing unemployment drastically. Why? Because it would mean promoting the growth of private enterprise which he doesn't like. Yet Private enterprise is the basis for everything we do.

How would you feel about a man who called you the enemy? ''President'' Obama told his hispanic supporters to join black in his fight with what he called ''our enemies'' and went on and told them if they bring a knife to this fight we will bring a gun?
Look I lived an worked with the Brits and euros I know how they really feel about America and Americans they look forward to it's down fall ''Oil will be sold in the Euro the U S dollar will be worthless'' ''Air Bus will put Boeing out of business'' how would you feel about a ''President'' who went to these people and said ''many Americans have been dismissive even derisive towards your Great union''?
I don't trust this man he has conducted a campaign of hate and division

There is no "might turn out to be wrong."
Obama's policies ARE wrong for this country and will contribute to this countries continued demise.
College kids wanting more tuition money fed to them and illegals who wanna become legal are the ones responsible for his reelection. Neither equal America. America was for Mitt.

George Bush acted as though the world would end in rapture after his presidency so didn't give a flying fig newton what the consequences of his actions were.
Obama, meanwhile, is trying to fix that mess.
Kindly cite examples of being evil or misguided. You can't, can you?
