FLASHBACK: Obama Insulted Nancy Reagan on Day One
Joe Miller ^ | 3/9/16 | Joel B. Pollak

President Barack Obama’s decision to skip Nancy Reagan’s funeral in California on Friday in favor of attending the South by Southwest (SXSW) conference in Texas is not the first time Obama has insulted the former First Lady.

On Nov. 7, 2008, at his very first press conference after winning the election, President-elect Obama cracked a nasty joke at Nancy Reagan’s expense, referring to stories that she consulted an astrologer in the White House.

Obama was answering a question from a journalist who had asked him whether he had spoken to any of his predecessors. Obama’s flippant, contemptuous response is recorded in the transcript of the event:

I am glad he will not be desecrating Ronald Reagan’s burial site.

Who will attend his ribbon cutting ceremony for the Barak Hussein Obama Presidential Library? In the center of the Presidential library, there will be a Koran...

You know someone is small-minded and thin-skinned when they sling mud even after winning the trophy.

Obama imagines he is a thousand times more refined than the street thugs he once claimed to represent but they both display all the character flaws and neuroses caused by fatherlessness: quick to anger, unable to interact with people without staging some sort of silly power game, always seeking revenge, no sense of decorum or limits.

Consulting with the Quran isn’t the same as consulting with astrologists in his mind. It is just dutiful, insane zealotry. Perfectly logical if you’re stuck in the 4th century.

Given that, Nancy’s family and close friends should not be too disappointed if The One does not want to grace (or disgrace) the event with his presence.

In the center of the Presidential library, there will be a Koran...

Right next to that will be Das Kapital, The Communist Manifesto, Rules for Radicals, and Mao's Little Red Book.

So Obama is black trash. We all knew that. Same as white trash, only a different color.

Doncha know his Mizzus is really steamed. She has to go to Mrs. Reagan’s funeral because all the First Ladies will be there, and it would look too crummy if she was the only one missing. She was supposed to “address” SXSW in Austin on Friday, too, so expect her to be really grumpy…but what else is new?

Isn’t diversity at funerals vital to our nation’s interests?
