Breaking Silence, Obama Speaks out on Trump Immigrants Order

Former President Barack Obama praised protesters who amassed across the country in opposition to President Donald Trump's immigration orders, breaking his silence on political issues for the first time since leaving office.

"The president fundamentally disagrees with the notion of discriminating against individuals because of their faith or religion," Obama's spokesman, Kevin Lewis, said.

In his first statement on behalf of the former president, Lewis said Obama was "heartened" by the amount of engagement taking place in U.S. communities. Lewis, a former White House official, pointed out that Obama used his last official speech as president to talk about Americans' responsibility to be "guardians of our democracy," even in nonelection years.


"Citizens exercising their constitutional right to assemble, organize and have their voices heard by their elected officials is exactly what we expect to see when American values are at stake," Lewis said.

Lewis didn't specifically invoke Trump's immigration order. But he rejected comparisons between Trump's recent actions and Obama's foreign policy decisions.

Amazing that the guy lasted 9 days without giving his opinion on his replacement.

We have another 40 years of hearing from the community organizer.
No punishment, in my opinion, is too great, for the man who can build his greatness upon his country's ruin~  George Washington

'Failed' community organizer.  We have another 40 years of hearing from the failed community organizer.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

-Ayn Rand-

Doesn't he have a golf game to go to...or a Spa Day with Reggie Love he should be at?
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Here lies in honored glory an American soldier, known but to God

THE ESTABLISHMENT IS THE PROBLEM...NOT THE SOLUTION

Soon, the Eightball Obama will be out there leading the riots.
 
If that fool broke wind as often as he "broke his silence" on things other presidents had the good sense to shun, he'd sound like a tuba in a oompah band.

The little mongrel seems intent on stripping away every last vestige of dignity from the title of president. It's like he wants his profile to read, "anti-American activist, guerilla organizer and former-president, in that order.

I'm guessing that this entire thing is a effort to extort money from the Democrat party. He will promise to shut up and stop damaging the party only if they buy him off by making him as rich as the Clintons and algore. Then and ONLY then will he promise to stop (even though he has no intention of keeping that promise, they will pay him off anyway).
