How Can We Miss a President Who Won’t Go Away?
Wall Street Journal ^ | January 11,2017 | Opinion

Posted on 01/11/2017 4:29:58 PM PST by Hojczyk

His presence in Washington will invite news reporters to seek his commentary and criticism of every move Mr. Trump makes. True, he told Mr. Axelrod he agreed with President Washington “that at a certain point, you make room for new voices and fresh legs.”

But he added a huge qualification: “Now, that doesn’t mean that if a year from now or a year and a half from now or two years from now, there is an issue of such moment, such import, that isn’t just a debate about a particular tax bill or a particular policy, but goes to some foundational issues about our democracy that I might not weigh in.”

It’s a safe bet that many of the challenges the Trump administration presents to the Obama legacy will come under Mr. Obama’s heading of “foundational issues of our democracy.” His presence in Washington, not some faraway place like Chicago, will make it difficult to remain above the fray even if he wanted to. As his party’s most admired and most skilled politician, he will receive calls to join the battle early and often.

Go away Obama. You and your policies were failures. The rest of your whole RAT Party are liars and failures too.

Barry,

You are just the last person Americans will turn to for an opinion regarding anything momentous or important.

No problem. Odumbo will prove to be just as ineffective out of office as he was in office.

I think back to the emergence of the Royal Idiot on the political scene....clearly unqualified, clearly an American-hater.....wormed his way into the political system under false pretenses.

Remember his 2008 PR person Anita Dunn? The White House communications director said they held back all info on Obama....only told the media what THEY wanted them (and gullible voters) to know.

======================================

Every minute of every day Obama shows and proves what a crud he is. He never should have been president. He has been a human wrecking ball for the US and our interests world-wide.

This deluded megalomaniac clearly got into American politics under false pretenses.

His disgusting European apology tour certainly proved his rank hatred of America. His capabilities in office demonstrated a remarkable proclivity for looting the US Treasury.

In it only for the money, you say? You betcha. The Washington Times says he leaves office as a billionaire.....and plans to shake the money tree bigtime (coached by those practiced grifting experts....the Clintons).

===============================================

The clock is ticking, his time in the White House is fading....but Obama is not going quietly. Boobamba left Americans a divided nation, trillions in debt, and a cartload of parasitic freeloaders sucking up our tax dollars, many of whom plan to kill us.

If that wasnt enough, Boobamba says he and the missus intend to stay active....to take years and years to transform America even more. He's proud he fundamentally transformed the nation we loved into a violent, hate-filled place.

I hope and pray he doesn't fall off his triycle as he's ticking off his "accomplishments."

The Obamas are leaving govt w/ a bundle: A new era in looting and pillaging the US Treasury has been set.

ITEM---- Obama gave Mrs O $100 million tax dollars from the State Dept's Millennium Challenge Corporation (chaired by Hillary) on her recent visit to Morocco, to "teach Muslim girls". The 100 million tax dollars are to be held by, and doled out by, the post- presidency tax-exempt Obama Foundation.

LOOK AT THAT SMILE Michele, her daughters and her mother in
Morocco's palace. 100 million dollars to spend when she and Mr O
get back to Chicago

=============================================

CAN YOU SAY KICKBACK? US TAXPAYERS PAY NOW---Obama collects later. Obama's federal outlays (that we know of):

<><> $150 billion to Muslim Iran in the nuclear deal,

<><> $2 billion funding to Malik's organization---the Muslim Brotherhood,

<><> $50 million to Malik/Barack's tax-exempt foundation in the form of a grant to Kenya.

<><> While the Muslim Brotherhood was in charge in Egypt, Obama (and Hillary) showered them w/ praise.....and billions of US dollars in aid, arms, tanks and planes.

<><> Obama gave $90 million US tax dollars to wealthy oil-rich Muslim African Muslim countries.

<><> the PR billions missing from the Obamacare scam.

<><> 6 billion missing from Hillary's State dept.

<><> Michele talked about "teaching girls," then Obama sent her off to oil-rich Muslim Quatar w/ $73 million US tax dollars......she got 100 million tax dollars to "teach girls" in Morocco ( to be administered by the Obama Foundation).

===========================================

OBAMA'S GENEROSITY TO HIS HOMELAND IS THE BEST KEPT SECRET IN DC

<><> $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

<><> Kenya listed as one of the Top Ten Recipients of US Foreign Aid

<><> Not to forget $2 billion US tax dollars to the Muslim Brotherhood

================================================

And Obama's fourteen trillion dollar tax dollar bailouts, for those “shovel ready” jobs, Solyndra, etc.

Truth is a bitter pill. Evil is not intended to be forgotten quickly.

There was a myth that Adam and Jamie of “Mythbusters” put to the test. The myth was about a perfect condition Corvette that couldn’t be sold because a person’s body had decomposed inside of it and there was no way to get rid of the putrid smell. They put the myth to the test by putting a dead hog inside a Corvette, letting it decompose, and then trying every imaginable way to get rid of the stench. No matter what they did, they couldn’t get rid of the smell. The car had to be totaled and parted out.

I fear that Obama is going to be just like that stench that won’t go away.

Won't go away?

The longer he stays, the greater the chance he'll end up in prison. I predict he'll spend his last days hiding out in Kenya.

He’ll go away on 1/20/2017 regardless of what he says or does. You’ll find out 6 months into the Trump Administration, Obama will be as popular as a public pay phone and the full impact of his loser legacy will realized by most everyone.
