The corruption of Barack Obama
2020-02-16
[American Thinker] The national media are flabbergasted that Americans won't consent to President Trump's removal from office. How can so many of his compatriots be indicted and so many government bureaucrats condemn his behavior without giving them what they desire: self-assurance that they are "on the right side of history"?

If they ever wish to understand, the critical starting point in their education is not the current presidency, but the last one. Although there are numerous ways to describe the present divide in America, one of the simpler is thus: those Americans who take Barack Obama at his word that his presidency was historically "scandal free" and those Americans who see the unrelenting stream of Deep State attempts to take down President Trump as a continuing coup and the natural extension of an unethical, criminal, and at times unconstitutional Obama presidency.

For those of us in the latter camp, Barack Obama presided over a corrupt administration and used his historic election as the first non-white American president as a get-out-of-jail-free card to abuse his power while silencing his critics.

#9  Not to mention his arm twisting to get Chicago the Olympics for his friends who bought up property there to cash in.

#8  Plus his, er, collusion with Medvedev and Putin in March 2012 for electoral gain ("I'll have more flexibility after the election"). Not criminal but, ironically, EXACTLY what he and his fellow conspirators falsely accused OrangeMan of doing.

Most corrupt era since the Robber Barons.
Led by a lazy and corrupt moron in a well-cut suit.

#7  Omitted the 8-figure post=[residency Netflix sweetheart deal - a company whose entire rickety business model depends on favorable treatment by political appointees in Washington.

Also omitted the Obama-ordered campus rape tribunals / kangaroo courts which have destroyed the lives of scores of innocent young men.

Also does not go into detail on the offense for which this buffoon may yet land in prison, the conspiracy with Brennan to use foreign intelligence agents to spy on and create bogus charges against a political rival during and after the 2016 presidential election.

But it's a start.

#3  Yes, but we owe him a debt of gratitude for adding seven states to the Union.

#2  The Obama great transformation? Reads like a litany of Al Capone's crimes and more.

#1  That once prolific graphic of the Soetoro-Saudi bow appears to be quietly making it's way to the media's historical editing room. It's now very difficult to locate on-line. Strange, strange indeed. Massive statuary and street names to soon follow.

(Graphic is of the Nelson Mandela statue on Signal Hill, Bloemfontein, SA)
