I find Obama very likeable.

I understand why political neo-conservatives and George Bush supporters and lunatic fringe Republicans don’t like Barack Obama. And oppose whatever he does. Every step of the way. Because Obama isn’t a neo-conservative or a George Bush or a lunatic. They want him to be all of those things. And he just ain’t gonna do it. Instead, he’s gonna tend to be moderate to liberal, and himself, rather than Bush. And you’ve gotta give Obama credit for being reasonably sane and sensible. And a generally good guy. Intelligent, too. And he’s black. Therefore, little wonder that he annoys the people that he annoys. He’s everything they dislike. Which means I find Obama very likeable. –Jim Broede
