Moron of the Month - August 2020

At last!

I finally have the nerve to spotlight him on this monthly salute to stupidity.  But, in reality, he is not a moron.  Oh, no.  He is a genius.   He is cunning.  He is sly.   He is devious.   

Indeed, I might want to change this monthly post to "Villain of the Month."  Because, a century from now when historians will reflect on the destruction of the United States and can look past his skin color, Barack Obama will be Exhibit A on why the country took its last breath.   I mean, just listen how he turned that John Lewis funeral eulogy into a rabble rousing speech from the Adolf Hitler playbook.  Totally inappropriate, but totally Barack Obama.

I've always thought this, but I had a recent epiphany where I blurted out my feelings in a rare political discussion with a friend.   

Back in 2008, if Barack Obama doesn't play the race card and steal the Democratic nomination from Hillary Clinton, America would not be the shambles that is 2020.  No, I'm not saying Hillary would have been a great President.  She likely would have been a mess.   Heck, she might not even have won the election.   

But think about it.  The marketing and race campaign waged by the dirty and underhanded Barry was the pivot point in beginning America on its slippery slope downward.   

What, you say?  Obama played the race card?  Seriously?

Seriously.

Read the definitive book on that 2008 election called "Game Change."   It's reputable as it was written by a couple of Time Magazine journalists. 

Yes, I mean the book that the assholes at HBO turned into a movie.   But they only concentrated on the Sarah Palin story which was just about 25 percent of the pages.   There's a whole section about Obama secretly dropping hints of racism against Bill and Hillary.  Of course, nobody wanted you to see that dramatized.

So if Barry is unsuccessful, maybe Hillary wins or has a one term Presidency or goes the distance.  But if Barry doesn't get his way, we ultimately don't have him stirring the pot when that Harvard professor is arrested.   We probably don't have the hysteria of Ferguson or Travyon Martin.   We don't have the invention of systemic racism.   

Overall, we have a much better life if Obama is not in power to do the only thing he is good at.  Community agitation.   

To this day for me, it's still a mystery where he came from.  He had a brief and lackluster Senate career.   And then he ran for President.   Like overnight.

In this age of social media, where was all the vetting of this guy?   Oh, I don't mean the birth certificate controversy.   That was a dead issue from the get go. But, in 2020, when everybody comes out of the bushes to tarnish reputations, there was nobody...and I mean nobody from Obama's past.   No college roommate.   No childhood friends.   No old professors or teachers.   No previous girlfriends.   It's like America got him out of the box completely assembled.  

Meanwhile, I have always had concerns that this guy had some major psych issues.   I mean, how could he not?   His mother was a bit of a lowlife tramp. His father effectively deserted him.   He is raised by a white grandmother.  Some of that has to frame your viewpoint of the world just a little.

Going back to where I started this blog entry, think about how life would have changed if we had no Obama in 2008.  If Hillary won, she might have been forced to the middle like her hubby was.   Or maybe she makes so much of a mess that a reasonable Republican would have won in 2012.

Most pointedly, if Obama had not pulled those race cards in 2008, we likely would not have turned to Trump in 2016.   So, in reality, if you think America is dying right now from a bullet wound to the stomach, it was Barack Obama who pulled the trigger.  And there are a lot of voters who fell for this.  Nice work, gang.  It truly resulted in a pivotal and negative point in our country's history much akin to the murder of the Kennedy brothers.

Yep, Obama's no moron.  Because, as only the elitist that he is could do, he's one of the few people living a carefree life in 2020.  His Netflix deal that he and his many-wigged wife signed has scored them millions of dollars.   Of course, if the virtually-brain-dead Joe Biden wins the Presidency in November, Barack might come in from the golf course from time to time and help pull the strings on that Charlie McCarthy in the Oval Office.   And we will continue to swirl down the porcelain drain.

Maybe I should retitle this month's post as "Flush of the Month."

Dinner last night:  Bacon salad.
