Barack Obama✔@BarackObamaWe've seen all too terribly the consequences of those who denied warnings of a pandemic. We can't afford any more consequences of climate denial. All of us, especially young people, have to demand better of our government at every level and vote this fall.
Obama refused to shut down US - Mexico border after CDC and WHO issued H1N1 pandemic alertAmerican Thinker, Apr1, 2020, M. Catharine EvansOnce again, Barack Obama has opened the door to reviewing his 2009 response to what the CDC then called the "first global flu pandemic in 40 years." In a tweet accusing President Trump of being in denial about the COVID-19 pandemic and climate change, the former president cited an LA Times article on the administration's new policy to roll back Obama's 2012 environmentally friendly fuel efficiency standards. This is rich coming from a president whose denial of the H1N1 pandemic early on may have led to tens of millions more infections and thousands of more deaths than otherwise would have happened.During his two terms as president, Obama left our borders wide open to all kinds of infectious diseases the United States had rid itself of almost a century ago. So looking back to April 29, 2009, a day after the CDC issued Interim Guidance on Closing Schools and Childcare Facilities, recommending a 7-day dismissal in affected schools and childcare facilities with laboratory-confirmed cases of the swine flu, it's no surprise Obama told a White House reporter, on the advice of his hourly discussions with his public health officials, that closing our southern border would be "akin to closing the barn door after the horses were out." From whitehousearchives.gov: QuoteQ Thank you, Mr. President. With the flu outbreak spreading and worsening, can you talk about whether you think it's time to close the border with Mexico, and whether -- under what conditions you might consider quarantining, when that might be appropriate? THE PRESIDENT: Well, first of all, as I said, this is a cause for deep concern, but not panic... I've consulted with our public health officials extensively on a day-to-day basis, in some cases, an hour-to-hour basis. At this point they have not recommended a border closing. From their perspective it would be akin to closing the barn door after the horses are out, because we already have cases here in the United States. We have ramped up screening efforts, as well as made sure that additional supplies are there on the border so that we can prepare in the eventuality that we have to do more than we're doing currently.But the most important thing right now that public health officials have indicated is that we treat this the same way that we would treat other flu outbreaks, just understanding that because this is a new strain we don't yet know how it will respond. [...]The same person accusing President Trump of being in denial regarding the coronavirus continued his open border policy with Mexico throughout the year-long swine flu pandemic. The virus ended up claiming nearly 13,000 lives, including 317 children, and infecting over 60 million..In contrast to President Trump's early travel bans to contain the virus, Barack Obama, by his own admission, refused to "close the barn door." https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/04/obama_refused_to_shut_down_us__mexico_border_after_cdc_and_who_issued_h1n1_pandemic_alert.html

Obama's lying. For more details, the top of my signature.
Very well done!Would you mind it being copied to other sites?
Obama is a POS, and should never be heard from again. He is lucky to be walking around. If we had equal justice in this country, he would have long ago been indicted and convicted of his many crimes.
Pardon my ignorance, but how do I navigate to “the top of my signature?†Where is the top of your signature? Anyone?
See the link just below the fine line above all the bit at the bottom of his post.

The ol' 'a lie told often enough' ploy. I see that time hasn't made Obama any more honest.
@mystery-ak Anyone else recall a former president getting him/herself involved in presidential politics after leaving office?Yet,here comes Bathhouse Barry,the biggest poser and the biggest fool to ever occupy that office,and sticks his fool head into the mix.
@skeeter IMNSHO,it is not that he is honest or dishonest,it is that he is so freaking stupid he doesn't know the difference.
