I don't think I am interested in what Obama has to say on this subject. He angered fathers last year trying to tell them how to be good fathers. There are just some things he has no business talking about. This is one of them. He needs to give his mouth a rest already!

I would like it, if just for ONE day, I didn't here Obama's name!

The Problem with King Obama's Father's Day Speech

What King Obama should have talked about was the failure of mothers to understand the importance of fathers.  That is the heart of why we have fatherless homes.  Once, it was accepted that a child needed both a father and a mother to grow up right.  Now, it is politically correct to believe that a father who pays child support and visits his offspring every other week is sufficient.  My mother grew up with a father who was sick and who could contribute very little to his family, except for his paternal love -- but that love was incomparably more important than any wages that he could have earned.

So you want Fathers to step up, do you? Why don't you try reforming that mockery of Justice known as "Family Court" in this country? When we see equality justice in place of absolute discrimination on basis of sex, when we see the needs of children placed ahead of the needs of lawyers and bigoted judges, we'll see more involvement of Fathers. And until YOU step up to the plate and make that day a reality, shut your hypocritical face.

President Obama's doing so bad I can hardly get a day off work.  When Bush was president I got at least 3 days a week off.  Keep up the "bad" work Obama!

He makes some good points.  He loves his children.  The thing is, most any guy can father a child.  It takes a man to be a Dad.  Some children are better off not having their father, or in other cases their mother, in their lives.  Some people are just screwed up.  I adopted my daughter when she was 6, her "father" moved out of state when she was 1 and never made a effort to be a Dad.  But back to the point.  Do we really need our President to tell us more guys need to step up and take care of their responsibilities?  Any person with a lick of commen sense already knows this.  Cmon Obama, give us a little credit, we're not that stupid.

If he is sincere than President Obama will have no trouble supporting a bill to give presumptive equal custody to parents at the birth of children or at the time of seperation that way fathers will be able to see their children and not be alienated from them by the childrens mothers.

WHO IS WATCHING OUT FOR THE AMERICAN TAXPAYERS? ANYONE?

Does ANYONE in the Congress or House of Representatives or Senate have ANY Values? Morals? Honesty? Integrity?  Who is going to SUPPORT and STAND UP for the American People? Who is going to support the LAWS of this land and our CONSTITUTION?

President Obama’s SPENDING is OUT-OF-CONTROL. No Country should saddle its Citizens with unsustainable DEBT. Obama is making TAX SLAVES out  the AMERICAN PEOPLE. NO MORE: SPENDING, STIMULUS, BUSINESS TAKEOVERS, AMNESTY, UNIVERSAL/SOCIALIST HEALTHCARE, TAXES, etc.

Why is Obama hiring “CZARS” that only report to him, with no oversight by the House/Senate? Why is Obama spending like there is no tomorrow? Will NO ONE stand up to his crazed spending?? Why is Obama not following the LAWS of this land? WHO IS GOING TO PROTECT THE AMERICAN CITIZENS??? The American People do NOT want the TRILLIONS of dollars of DEBT and the RIDICULOUS proposals President Obama is CRAMMING DOWN OUR THROATS.
