Damage in the Wake of ‘No Drama Obama’
Townhall.com ^ | April 24, 2017 | Susan Stamper Brown

Every time a picture of America’s Coolest Prez Ever gets posted on social media, the internet lights up like a Christmas tree. Of late, His Excellency, Barack Obama, was caught on camera photographing Michelle while they cruised the South Pacific on a carbon footprint-hogging 450-foot super yacht.

One Instagram click later and, who cares about global warming, or ISIS, or Russia? The picture goes viral...followers gasp…tears flow…and leftists of the world over fawn over their American idol.

One guy on social media went so far as to describe Obama as “our step dad who broke up with our mom America, who still loves us.” Seriously? No wonder people think they need safe spaces these days.

Conveniently, leftists neglect the fact that their idol who trashed the rich for eight years now lives a lifestyle of the rich and famous.

If he isn’t tucked away on a private island in the South Pacific once owned by Marlon Brando or kite surfing in the Virgin Islands with billionaire bud Richard Branson, he’s hanging out with fellow Hollywood BFFs Tom Hanks, Oprah Winfrey and Bruce Springsteen.

Not too bad for a community organizer from Chicago.

How did that happen?

His followers don’t care how it happened nor do they care that this adulated man they worship like royalty left in his wake a royal mess, spending more money and creating more debt than all his predecessors combined. Making income redistribution over economic growth his top priority, the economy sputtered his entire presidency. Americans suffered while he played golf.

Add to that, the world is on fire, thanks to poor choices, feeble leadership, and awkward appeasements. The worst of which were stashed away like time bombs, set to go off after his exit and upon the next president’s arrival.

Last year, the man whose decisions in Syria helped to create ISIS told us “the world has never been less violent” and “we are living in the most peaceful, prosperous, and progressive era in human history.”

On his watch, the Afghanistan war dragged on and Iraq was in shambles as ISIS expanded. But “the world has never been less violent” said he whose red line helped to stain the ground in Syria with the blood of a half million people while ISIS burned Christians in cages. Meanwhile, a million young Muslim men who should be defending their own countries deluged the West as “refugees” wherein terror attacks now abound.

That he believes “this is the most peaceful, prosperous, and progressive era in human history” is the reason why Democrats lost over 1000 seats under his watch. It’s also why America painted the electoral college map red last November.

But he still has his devoted followers.

Those who live to watch the world burn are forever grateful for the Obama era…that eight-year vacuum of leadership when the inmates began to run the asylum and bad people were emboldened to act out evil.

Fast forward to today. News breaks that Russian bombers have been spotted off the Alaska coast twice this week, and it likely isn’t to see if our snow is melting. Russia just unveiled another new Arctic military base. The first one, Northern Clover, was completed in 2015, probably while Obama was playing golf on Martha’s Vineyard, yucking it up with his rich pals while reminiscing about his 2012 debate zinger to Romney about the non-threat Russia posed.

Now North Korea is threatening to launch a “super-mighty preemptive strike” that will reduce the United States “to ashes.” China just put its bombers on alert and moved troops and equipment to the North Korean border along with Russia in anticipation that President Trump will keep his promise to keep America safe.

Spineless leadership, fake red lines, and pompous arrogance all have one thing in common: Barack Obama. If only Obama had pursued a career in Hollywood rather than Washington, he’d still have his feckless followers, but the world would be safer.

No truer words have been written. However,they merely engender melancholy due to the truth of them and the knowledge that his followers will never see the damage he has done.

It took me years to finally let go of the false fact, that Bush 2 was good for America. He doubled the debt, just like BO, he went on a spending spree, just like Obama. He is a globalists and worked with T. Kennedy on his first legislative work, reforming schools with the D's. The worse for me was setting us up for BO and saying nothing for 8 long years about how bad he was for the country, for the world.

I don't like Bush 2 at all, and I did not vote for his Dad either. Red flags went up when he said, welcome to the new world order. My first ever vote in America, in my 40's, went to Ross Perot. I was a teapartier and Trump voter in waiting. No more corrupt politicians, hate them.

In retrospect I’m inclined to agree with you.

The new world order thing Bush One talked about was quickly squashed in the news at the time but that bell could not be un-rung. I remember thinking Bush had let slip something he wasn’t supposed to... yet. It also indicated our President was taking orders from a powerful group (of oligarchs most likely) we had not yet been clued into at the time.

The truth usually finds a way to surface. It wants to be told I think and people want to say it even when they aren’t supposed to.

You also bring up someone who has done an immeasurable amount of damage to this country but doesn’t get enough credit for it; Ted Kennedy. Had he never been born our country would be so much better today. Guaranteed.

(hat tip Kenya Sunday Standard)

DID PRESIDENT OBAMA ACTUALLY DO ANYTHING FOR HIS HOMELAND?

<><> 2 billion US tax dollars to the Muslim Brotherhood,

<><> $50 million US tax dollars to his tax-exempt foundation in the form of a grant to Kenya.

<><> Total US Foreign Aid to Kenya (FY 2012): $749,236,440

<><> $418M arms sale to Kenya

-============================================

(FR Posted by RobinMasters)

A Kenyan lawmaker told the nation's Parliament last month (March 2010) that Barack Obama was born in Africa and is therefore "not even a native American."

During debate over the draft of a new Kenyan constitution, James Orengo, the country's minister of lands and a member of parliament for the Ugenya constituency, cited America's election of a Kenyan-born president as an example of what can be accomplished when diverse peoples unite:

"If America was living in a situation where they feared ethnicity and did not see itself as a multiparty state or nation," Orengo posited, "how could a young man born here in Kenya, who is not even a native American, become the president of America?"

Orengo held up the U.S. as a country no longer "living in the past," since Americans elected a Kenyan-born president without regard to "ethnic consideration and objectives."

Debate is then recorded in the Kenyan government's official March 25, 2010, hansard – a traditional name for printed transcripts of a parliamentary debate – as continuing with no other MPs mentioning or attempting to correct Orengo's comments about Obama. (Excerpt) Read more at wnd.com ...

EVEN MORE STARTLING TO CONTEMPLATE : Then-Pres Obamba and Susan Rice’s infamous surveillance activities, no doubt, collected ample evidence about Muslim plans to come to the US, to infiltrate and overthrow the US govt, to cause havoc, and kill Christians.

Yet, w/ full knowledge, the vengeful obamba launched a major “refugee project” to resettle thousands of Muslims in US communities, foisting rabid Christian-hating terrorists, criminals, torturers, beheaders on unsuspecting US citizens.

Obama made sure the criminal refugees boarded the US gravy train and received every freebie imaginable PLUS a cash stipend of 21,000 tax dollars upon arrival (from the U.S. Office of Refugee Resettlement, a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Obama ignored the concerns of taxpayers and state governors and began delivering violent Third World malcontents, en masse to almost every state in the US, a steady stream of Somali, Syrian, Afghan, Iraqi and Burmese Muslims.....not to mention the Central America crowd rife with communicable diseases..

Third World refugees who committed crimes in their homelands were welcomed into the US. Obama welcomed criminals from every hellhole on the globe:

Muslim Afghanistan, Algeria, Burundi, Cape Verde, China, Cuba, Eritrea, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, India, Iran, Iraq, Ivory Coast, Liberia, Libya, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Sierra Leone, Somalia, South Sudan, and Zimbabwe.

Obama and Susan Rice's purposeful crimes against America and the American people cry out for justice.
