Remember when we were told how much conservatives just love our country so much it makes them cry?Apparently, some conservatives hate President Obama a lot more than they love their country.
Fox News right-wing commentator John Stossel is an interesting character, who probably still has a nugget rolling around in his head after being smacked around by wrestler Dr. D David Schultz back in the day (see the video below as his smart, disrespectful as was dealt with by Schultz).
Recently, Stossel again went on the attack of the United States, the city of Chicago and U.S. President Barack Obama for its efforts to hold BP accountable for its mess in the Gulf of Mexico. In an effort to get justifiable compensation for the victims of BPs mess, the president has worked with a lot of people to set up an escrow account that will help real Americans who are suffering.
Stossel, has attacked the president for this effort. According to a Media Matters for America report, Stossel referred to this effort as a "thuggish Chicago shakedown" and referred to the president as "Vladimir Obama."
Once again, it shows the hatred that conservative Americans have for this president. They hate President Obama so much they are willing to attack their own country and president to back British Petroleum, which has done great damage to our environment.

I am torn on whether or not Stossel is anti-American. However, his backing of BP is typical of many on the right. If George W. Bush was president now and did the same thing as Obama (holding BP accountable for the spill), the right would be talking about how strong and tough he was in sticking up for the American people.
The swipes against so-called Chicago styled politics have gotten predictable. Politics is often dirty and doubt that Chicago is any worse than other major American cities.
Stossel is a first-class chump. He fits in perfectly at Fox News.
