Former President Barack Obama still inspires many a journalist. Karen Tumulty, a longtime correspondent for Time magazine and, until last year, a national political correspondent for the Washington Post, pleaded in a Tuesday column this past week for Obama to save the nation from President Donald Trump.
Speak up, President Obama, read the July 16 Washington Post print headline. Online: We need someone who can lift us up again. Enter President Obama.
Tumulty offered an open letter to Barack Obama, which she began: Mr. President, it is time. You must speak. Your country needs you.
She soon argued: But silence now is unacceptable. It is time to make yourself heard.
Tumulty proceeded to castigate Republicans for not standing up to Trumps presumed moral failings: We have long since given up expectations that anyone in Trumps own party will do or say anything to call him out for what he is. The few who tried at the beginning have capitulated, been driven from office or walked away.
For Trump, racism is not a moral failing; it is a political tactic. None of us can really claim to understand what is in his heart, but the cynicism of his actions is apparent, and it must be exposed for what it is.
A few hundred words later, she concluded by pining for Obama's wisdom and inspiration: President Obama, what we need more than anything else right now is someone who can lift the countrys sights again. Someone who can charge us, as you once did, with a mission to march into the future. Let us keep that promise, that American promise, and in the words of scripture hold firmly, without wavering, to the hope that we confess.
Find your voice again. Reclaim your legacy. Do it now. It wont wait until your memoirs.

The Obamas should stay on their vacation
I see this idiot hasn’t asked herself: ‘why *hasn’t* King Zero done or said anything yet?’.
Send another box of cash to Iran, Mr. Obungo.
Obama was not universally liked. He did however have the protection of the media that labeled any and all criticism against his policies as being “racist”.
Obama is out of office and his ability to legislate with a phone and a pen are over. As someone else pointed out, President Trump has access to information on Obama and has shown his willingness to counter attack when he is attacked.
If you have noticed the President tends to play nice until it is time not to. Obama has a comfortable life as an “elder statesman” and I doubt if he wishes to go head to head with President Trump.
Obama in Kenya---his homeland---aunt in blue.
He is stoking the gravy train now and will do nothing to derail his capitalist post POTUS windfall.
“The nation” is a certain Knight in a certain castle stuffed with beautiful and horny virgins in “Monty Python and the Holy grail.”
We don’t want to be “saved.”
Liberals are so f**ked up upstairs. As a former Democrat I shake my head at the brainwashed supporters of that political party. Thank God I left it, or today my brain would be total mush like Karen Tumultys! How any rational thinking American could vote for todays RAT Party escapes me! Of course we know leftists are not rational people, not now, not in the past, and never will be in the future!
That’s if Obama doesn’t end up at Leavenworth very soon for his role in the anti-Trump conspiracy dating back in 2015.
Hysterical leftist floozies are so cliche.
Like he’s gonna quit nutfliX for that? Not likely. LOL!
Matthew 24:24 King James Version
24 For there shall arise false Christs..
Karen Tumulty and most of the rest of the media are doing us a big favor. They have become completely unhinged and are proving what we have long suspected that they were dedicated partisan activists committed to the radical Leftist agenda. They no longer pretend to be “journalists” bringing truth to the American people. We should encourage this sort of behavior.
Greatness.
Seeing the Dems and their propaganda arm seriously losing it now, just imagine what they will do in October 2020...
“. . . journalist. Karen Tumulty, a longtime correspondent “
Wait - I thought journalists and correspondents reported the facts, not do campaigning for a political party.
Obama: I uh, can't do that Karen. Trump probably knows all the s**t I pulled in office and if I stick my head up out of this foxhole....well, I'll just stay quiet, thank you.
Talk about stupid! No we America does not need Barack Obama for anything! He should stay in Europe which he always seemed to like better then America anyhow! We certainly don’t want or need him back here screwing up everything again!
The Greatest Fraud Ever (and Traitor Deluxe) should be in prison for the rest of his worthless, malignant life.
