    According to the U.S. Secret Service, which actually makes a living tracking these types of things as they are legally sworn to do so, you are absolutely 100% dead wrong on this, and there is no comparison to the Bush years in terms of volume of threats to the president, not now, not ever. Which is about the least surprising thing since the sun came up today.

    I get it, you're shocked that a black man might not like Obama. That's not surprising considering that your type usually thinks that all black people just mindlessly voted for Obama because of his race.

    I guess having a Congressman yelling out "you lie" during your presidential address was standard operating procedure for Bush.

    it is amusing to see basso play with a straight face that Bush has taken more bashing on trivial things than Obama.

    Bush was smashed for failed policies and wars. Obama gets smashed for having a Muslim Father, being black, and being progressive.

    The GOP = Failure.

    Obama is only half black, so that should only count 50% towards his bash total.

    Of course you aren't following him. You're an idiot.

    Why do you constantly point out that he is only "half black"?

    except that the definition of black is really not white, which makes Obama as black as there is.

    Of course, I am not surprised that in your unsuccessful attempt to mock, you have revealed your own inherent biases and ignorance of society in the U.S. For someone who claims to live in NYC, it's quite surprising because the statement above is someone I expect more from living under a rock.

    considering that "black" is a mixed race category anyway, 50% black has no meaning.

    sure it does. i don't think of my indian friends, who are far "blacker" than The Once, as black, but as Indian.

    in American society, black has a very well established meaning- to be of black (sub-saharan) african descent.

    You realize that hardly any blacks with roots in the U.S. are 100% african right?

    There are history books for you to read up on this kind of stuff.
