Why do some people spend to much time criticizing our President; when it gets them nothing?

Answer 1

Why do some people spend too much time on Answers criticizing other people whom they don't know; when it gets them nothing?

Answer 2

A lot of people have died and sacrificed through history to give us the right to freely criticize our leaders. To not do so when our leadership is so obviously inept disrespects the freedoms that so much blood was spilled to gain.

Just be glad you can criticize the President, most people throughout history have not had that luxury. It's what the free world is all about.

Answer 3

People who do nothing but criticize don't understand that cynicism is a zero sum game.

Here are the brilliant words of Stephen Colbert (Comedy Central), who, by comparison, makes John Stewart seem like he has the brains of a monkey.

Stephen Colbert's commencement address at Knox College:

Now, will saying "yes" get you in trouble at times? Will saying "yes" lead you to do some foolish things? Yes it will. But don't be afraid to be a fool. Remember, you cannot be both young and wise. Young people who pretend to be wise to the ways of the world are mostly just cynics. Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don't learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us.

Cynics always say no. But saying "yes" begins things. Saying "yes" is how things grow. Saying "yes" leads to knowledge. "Yes" is for young people. So, for as long as you have the strength to, say "yes".

Answer 7

Because in the USA you have that right and when you are not happy with his performance you should be heard and loud for that matter. People should be informed about the most powerful man in America

Answer 8

Frustration ...The worlds most powerful country has a Buffoon as a leader. We all wonder How did this happen? Are we really that stupid? He can't be leading us. He can't walk and chew gum at the same time. He can't even speak our language. Wake meup....I must be dreaming this.

Answer 9

It's called Freedom of Speech and it doesn't come with a guarantee that you'll get anything out of it. You just have the right to say it, just like you had the right to ask this question.

Answer 10

I agree they can't even vote for the President because of the electoral college.
