Tucker Carlson calls Obama 'one of the sleaziest and most dishonest figures' in U.S. political history
The Hill ^ | 07 31 2020 | Joe Concha

Tucker Carlson described former President Obama as "one of the sleaziest and most dishonest figures in the history of American politics" after his eulogy at the funeral of civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) on Thursday night.

Carlson, who also described the former president as "a greasy politician" for calling on Congress to pass a new Voting Rights Act and to eliminate the filibuster, which Obama described as a relic of the Jim Crow era that disenfranchised Black Americans, in order to do so.

"Barack Obama, one of the sleaziest and most dishonest figures in the history of American politics, used George Floyd's death at a funeral to attack the police," Carlson said before showing a segment of Obama's remarks.

Obama gave lengthy remarks about Lewis at Thursday's funeral, but the part that got the most attention was his vehement push for Congress to pass a new Voting Rights Act, which was an issue that the civil rights icon Lewis had pursued. The Supreme Court in 2013 struck down the heart of the law, allowing nine states, mostly in the South, to change their voting laws without federal approval.

"Bull Connor may be gone. But today we witness with our own eyes police officers kneeling on the necks of Black Americans. George Wallace may be gone. But we can witness our federal government sending agents to use tear gas and batons against peaceful demonstrators," Obama said.

“Once a “community organizer” always a “community organizer”.”

Community organ grinder.

“I’ve been alive during 13 Presidential Administrations and Osama Obama is....BY FAR...the worst.Carter is a *very* distant second.”

You have one more than I do. No disagreement with the worst but have to disagree with #2 due to the long term deleterious effects on the country brought on by the “great society”.

Johnson is probably #2 in the modern era, followed by Carter. The previous Johnson (#15) was probably #1 in that era.

That’s what “community organizers” do. They lie, distort, twist the facts and the truth. They manipulate people. They indoctrinate them. All themed with dishonesty. Trying to lead them in their direction regardless of how it may be detrimental to those people or their interests. They create an army of mind numbed robots. Obama was thus produced as a “Manchurian candidate” and lived up to this training and purpose.

Obama is not a natural born citizen.

He had many enablers from both parties that assisted him in violating the Constitution.

... while getting the federal government out of telling the states how to hold elections, I am all for it.

I'm with you in theory, but I want the Feds to disqualify Colorados all mail in voting. Dems have had a lock on our elections ever since that was enacted.

Tucker will catch all sorts of flack for stating the truth.


Which is exactly the same as the deranged attacks against Tucker for the past 6 months.
Hasn’t affected him in the slightest.
If anything the attacks have given Tucker the highest quarterly ratings of any show in cable news history.
Keep the attacks coming leftists.

Hard to make money with no advertisers. I doubt Fox is making much if any money from his show now.

Obama spend his 8 years in the White house planting the seeds of what we are sowing today.

“0bama is repulsive. I can’t stand the sight or sound of him.”

Interesting. I was watching Tucker when he put the sack of crap’s video up. I yelled I cannot stand that black CS POS (you fill in the full words). Shot up, grabbed the remote and quickly changed the channel, did not go back, and quietly watched the first 48. I hate that reptile so much that I pray I get to read his obit before I cash in just so I can go happy.

I'm surprised that Tucker has lost his mainline corporate advertisers given that his show is ranked # 1 in cable news viewing.

Proof that Trump Derangement Syndrome is not confined to politicians, academia and the media, etal.
