WR opinions: Looking back at the Obama years

[OverCoronavirus Pressure]

Nobody's right or wrong ITT.

Now that the dust is settling, and how long is that process for any POTUS, we have a little room for reflection and discussion regarding ol' Barack Hussein Obama.
Not a sober analysis, but a partisan back and forth, it's what we do here.

I'll begin by saying outrageously that I didn't agree with everything but thought he repped the US well, carried himself with a fair amount of dignity, and nothing (that mattered) exploded (very much) while he was in office.

I'd give him a terrorist fist bump.
(anyone know off the top of their head how that expression made it into the public mind, I forget)

Obama will go down in history as one of, if not the best president US ever had, and the butthurt righties will screech about it

I'm not a Republican or Democrat. After the mess Dubya made its hard to gauge Obama. He ran with the slogan about "change" but things kept moving along. I thought with the Iran deal we were heading in the right direction but I don't trust the government because I think it's occupied by Zionist interests ( not all Jews are Zionist, and not all Zionist are Jews, and those people run the show. The president is just a puppet for the needs of Israel's interest. The white house is being occupied with an international agenda, not a national one.

He was a good speaker for the most part, but it was the worst economic recovery since the depression. He was also supposed to be inspirational to black people to show they could be anything, but instead he just convinced them they were victims and the racial wage differences actually increased.

There's also fast and furious scandal, Benghazi scandal, IRS targeting political opponents, spying on reporters. In short, not a fan.

My finger hovered over the like button until I got to the part about the Jews

Why is that word so taboo? What's that quote by Voltaire again? The one about finding out who rules over you is who you're not allowed to question. It seems that's the case.

I don't want this thread derailed and it's common sense I'm not talking about all J's. I didn't think I had to say "not everyone". I just think the government is occupied with Zionist interests. That includes many people of all races and alot of Christians.

What word? Jews?
Nothing wrong with a word, any word.
It's how it's used.

I edited my post. I didn't want your thread derailed. I was just giving my opinion.

 

[TheComebackKid]

Obama was absolutely terrible. A complete swamp creature that grew the shadow government and represented America like a complete cuck.

And that's where you're wrong!!

I didn't agree with many of his politics. I do think, as Conservative, that he took an unfair amount of criticism for being a black man who looked at the world as a black man and addressed it from that perspective, and not from the perspective of a white man. I think most people failed to take into consideration that when you get right down to it, when you peel everything else away, ideology, education, experience, birthplace, etc, the President is really just a dude. That's just a person standing up there, not a super computer. I thought he did his best at times to try to be fair, his perspectives on things and his ideas on what "fairness" was were just so much different than what your average Middle Class White American's are that that created conflict.

I also thought the entire adminstration was incredibly dishonest about the way they went about things. He was too much of a pure politician. Nothing was his fault, and everything that went right, even if by chance, was directly because of something he did. In the final year of his adminstration he was STILL blaming Bush for any slight criticism that came his way. A prime example of this is the current situation in the Middle East. The Middle East collapsed under his watch, as a direct result of decisions he made, that he took zero accountability for and attempted to sluff of on Bush, a man who hadn't been in office in this decade. He really set the bar for the new model of self important, vaugely smug self described super intellectual Liberal that we have today.

Obama set the precedent that the President can name himself judge, jury, and executioner of any American citizen without any evidence ever being presented to the public.

Anwar Al-Awlaki was an American citizen. He was executed without trial, or even being aware of the charges against him. Yes, his rhetoric was hateful, and he may (no evidence ever presented) have been involved in more then just rhetoric. If the latter was the case, then he needed to be captured, put on trial, and then executed. THAT is what makes us better then those we oppose. Even the worst among us are given the chance to defend themselves in court.

That is a scandal.

To any WarRoom liberals/leftists/Democrats/wanna-be-moderates, that would defend Obama's decision to execute an American citizen without trial:

How do you feel about Trump now having the exact same power and authority?

I suspect many of you will have a "Come to Jesus" moment and realize that level of power is easily abused. Of course this revelation will only come after Obama is safely out of power and safe from harsh criticism.

Funny how that works.....

ROFL. Yes, a tiny little country in the Middle East is actually running the world. You don't get out much, huh?

 

[lecter]

IRS targeting controversy, reauthorization of Patriot Act, NSA spying scandal (domestic and foreign), military intervention in Lybia, Eric Holder, drone war, did nothing significant to end the war on drugs
And that's without typical right-wing talking points like Benghazi, Fast and Furious etc and without issues which might be seen one way or the other depending on one's political views like Obamacare, Iran deal, and DACA
but because he was a great speaker and a competent politician he's, of course, the best president the USA ever had
The only thing I give him credit for is that he did his part in legalizing gay marriage

Hussein Obama's Legacy (And reasons Trump got elected)

Racial division-white people are bad, "the cops acted stupidly" the knockout game

Trannies (men) should be in the girls restrooms

Ahmed's clock (Islamic fake bomb) was cool

Islam is wonderful- "the Muslim call to prayer is the most beautiful sound in the world."

Opening borders

People didn't get to keep their doctor or keep their plan like he said they would

 

[Thunderflash500]

He gave the wealth of the nation over to elite. That's a sin I think we will still end up paying for.

You must get out too much. You might want to stay home and work on your reading comprehension. I'm not derailing his thread with people yelling at me because I mention Jewish interests. Middle East wars are part of it though.

 

[Teppodama]

I personally saw no gain, either financially or socially from his Presidency, so for ME he was just a well spoken President no different than the others. From a purely observational position, I don't like the divisiveness that he allowed to fester and grow within our nation either through inaction, direct support or passive aggressive support. I don't believe his social policies were in the best interest of the nation as a whole.

 

[Literally Bricked]

Honestly, outside of getting Osama and Dodd-Frank, I don't like that he allowed an environment to be created that is so divided that we now have BLM in Canada. He seems like a toned down version of our current Instagram prince, I mean Prime Minister.
