The myth of Obama’s ‘disappearance’
By Paul Sperry
June 30, 2018 | 9:01am

If you believe recent media accounts, the former Democratic president has suddenly transcended the political fray. It’s as if a newly “Zen-like” Barack Obama is content to just write his memoir and let Donald Trump and Republicans write the next chapter of history.

In a cover story asking “Where is Barack Obama?” for example, New York magazine concluded that the 44th president has “virtually disappeared” from the political scene and is sitting idly by as his legacy is dismantled piece by piece. From an exclusive interview, the periodical concluded Obama was “modeling his political engagement out of office after George W. Bush’s” — that is, staying out of the rough-and-tumble of politics, maintaining distance from his former office and resigning himself to be an elder statesman fading into the sunset.

Don’t buy it.

Obama is doing far more to shape the political landscape than is visible. In fact, for an ex-prez, he’s taking an unusually active role in politics, including helping radical protest groups fight Trump and his policies and devising a scheme to flip the GOP majority in the House and permanently turn red seats blue.  ...

In public, Obama has skillfully kept his distance from recent anti-Trump protests and politicking. But behind the scenes, he really may be coordinating the resistance — and acting as its organizer in chief.

I certainly did not expect Obastard to fade away in obscurity.  He has to keep pushing his knife into the country, for without its destruction, he is nothing.

I am glad that this got posted.  After the election, I will reflect back on it and compare it to the excuses Democrats put forward on why they lost.

Obama leading from behind does not equate to a winning strategy.  If Obama knew what leadership was, then Gorsuch wouldn't be a Supreme Court Justice.

Gorsuch is a judge because Obama, all of Congress, and all the Supreme Court, all believed that Hillary was going to win. If those Judges had any inkling that a Republican was going to be elected, half of them would have resigned under Obama. They did not resign because the very idea of a Republican President was ridiculous. It could never happen.

That line made me chuckle a little. Obama can't 'coordinate' his own life, much less any kind of organization. He wasn't even the President. Valerie Jarrett was. All he did was make smarmy smart-ass speeches and play golf. As for running the government, that was all mommy Jarrett. That is why her home country Iran wound up with hundreds of billions of dollars for nothing.

Hussein Obama is a child with a 'man body'. All he wants to do is to party and play. Work, is for somebody else to do. I do not believe that he is 'coordinating' anything, except maybe with his pot dealer.

   I'm excited about the next decade, too.



   He'll be selling Tanning Booths on QVC.

To evaluate Obama, one must not let one's opinion of him decide the outcome of the evaluation.

Obama is a master organizer and skillful of speech, and, even - singing.  When he was in that church and began to sing "Amazing Grace", he could have been elected King of the universe.

Not many expected him to be elected the second time - he did it easily.  His skill with bringing an audience along with him, is still there.  He is teaching others to do this and they are teaching others - he is organizing and doesn't have to make big speeches to do it.  He has his smart right hand man (see that as female), Valerie Jarret, right there with him.  The last I heard, she was living in their home.

I heard one speech he gave somewhere and he was telling them to get off their duff and get busy.  When he says "busy", he has given them the outline of what to do when they are "busy".  That is hands on work to actually do; not sitting in a chair thinking about it.

None of you are going to accept what I just wrote, but I say again, look at what he has done in the past to get people working/voting, and realize you can't use your opinion of him to evaluate what he will do/is doing.  Again, past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior - and remember, "Amazing Grace".

Ohhh!  I get it now.  So that's why Obama started taxing tanning booths!  Silly me.... and here I thought it was just his anti-whitey bigotry.  He was anti-Trumpy from the beginning!

She's still running things. Is it true she actually lives with Mooch and Hussein?

Is Trump taxing tanning booths?  I remember Obastard levied huge taxes on tanning booths to help pay for Obastardcare.  The reason for that was rather obvious.  How many non-white people use tanning booths?

... And that's why Jarrett is living with the obamas.
She's STILL "running the show" and pulling the puppet strings...!
