The point is that it doesn't matter why he did it. He's (hypothetically) doing it, and it's perfectly germane to discuss the acts, the impacts, what you can do to resist it and advocate for overturning/opposition, etc, but it serves no purpose and adds nothing to the discussion to have post after post ranting about the (D) before his name, or how he's a "phony liberal" (I'm honestly not even sure how to digest that in this context)
Honestly the only effect of ranting about his party affiliation is to alienate people.
Pro-tip, even people who hate Obama and don't like liberal ideology sometimes don't want to be around a bunch of bitchy people going on and on about how much they hate <politicians> and how little they think of <people> or <idea>, and plenty of people like that don't want to have to sift through dozens of posts of liberal-bashing and politician-slandering to see if there is anything useful in the thread to read.
