Your question about the lack of those who wholeheartedly and with great passion supported President Obama during the primary and the campaign is one that I dont quite understand.

I suppose...either they are ONLY interested when the party tells them to be interested (campaigns).....they have given up on Obama totally and have nothing to say in defense, or ALL the verbage was due to the hate for George Bush !

Now, even for me who totally opposed Obama's philosophies, some of the criticism is sort of exaggerated and out of context (however if I made that point during the primary/campaign I was told that was politics) but you would think if you truely believed that you might take the time to defend. Of course not all are as interested in politics as some of us but I am personally suspicious of those who are only interested during presidential campaigns !!!!
