It's a little hard to explain, but the main reason is because the economy collapsed and Americans like to blame people. I, along with my family after explaining this to them, dislike him because he speaks incredibly well, and because of that, he disguises his true intentions with enviable perfection. Most of what he does is exactly against Constitutional values, in fact, he himself has personally written and signed over 2000 executive orders. Previously, in 43 presidents, only ~8200 Executive orders had been filed. He sapped more power from the rest of the government (And in turn the public) than every other president and Congressman combined. He kind of became a dictator. Or dick tater.
EDIT: @Dippo: No, they're both evil rats.
As TMM states, the economic collapse was in no way his fault. Plus, according to https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/data/o...orders.php Obama has only passed 168 executive orders up to January 2014. Plus, the so called power sapping is always going to happen when the majority of the legislature are of the opposing party to the executive.

I know about the economic thing; as I said people like to blame. Whoever is in power gets a shoulder to the face. I'm very confused by that web link, as the government itself has published work saying this. I guess that's what I get for listening to printed sources.

Don't like Obama, never been particularly fond of his rhetoric but the main reason he's a bit of a devil in disguise for me (drone strikes, NSA scandal etc)
In cooler stuff, anybody will watch E3 today?

Just wondering if anybody can answer this; in the video of Keisses 2012 stage win in the Tour of Turkey with the two british commentators, who was the commentator who came all over Turkey when he crossed the line? I'd like to hear more from him.
There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

Carlton Kirby, I believe.
And that is still one of the most fantastic stages in history!

I'm like a superhero, I can stop a thread dead in its tracks with just a word.
Calling all Germans, calling all Germans. Achtung!
I need some help translating a sentence into german. It's about a feight boat which was used to ferry people out to a larger coastal steamer.
How do you say "It was used to ferry people out to the Hurtigruten (the name of the steamer)"?
All Google translate has given me is "Es wurde benutzt, um die Menschen aus, um der Hurtigruten Fähre"
