What a rogues gallery of self-adoring kissups to Obama.

I want to have a list of all the gushing attendees-—to add to my “S” list. “S” is for Special. When things get going these will not get my Hallmark Christmas cards or foil wrapped Godiva chocolates, in other words.

This party was cut way back from the original plan.

Obozo was planning to invite ten thousand illegal aliens and another ten thousand homeless folks, but decided not to go there due to the “killer pandemic”.

;-)

What was all that stuff tiegen was involved it? Bullying folks on line or something like that.

Guess the hero of the common man, Soetero, has no problem entertaining someone as nasty as that.

These people are gross on every level.

“Obama and Liberal Elites Spotted Maskless at His Swank Birthday Gala on Martha’s Vineyard as Rest of the Country Hunkers Down in Pandemic”

Well, not quite the ‘Rest of the Country”, as I live in TEXAS.

Yeah, I thought so too. Something like this:

Prospero had supplied everything they needed for pleasure. There was music, there was dancing, there was beauty, there was food to eat and wine to drink. All these were within the wall, and within the wall they would be safe. Outside the wall walked the Red Death.

It was a scene of great richness, that masquerade. There were seven rooms in which Prospero’s friends danced...

Now they knew that it was the Red Death itself that had come in the night. One by one the dancers fell, and each died as he fell. And the fires died. And the clock stopped. And darkness and decay and the Red Death ruled forever over all.

I love a nice feel-good story. HERE is the whole thing...

Of course because the facade of a pandemic is all BS.

To most people, hypocrisy is a liability.

To the Left, it’s a fringe benefit.

Hypocrisy and Shame have no effect on Leftists. Never has. Never will. They don’t worry about such things as they know for a fact their Propaganda Machine, the MSM will never ever report on it. They dictate to the Plebes that which they have no intention of doing themselves because they are completely immunized from their Hypocrisy by their allies in the MSM/Hollywood/Academia, etc...
They truly believe they are our betters. Our Masters.
We are to simply comply with their edicts and not question anything they dictate to us. And, those who dare to question? They must be dealt with. Harshly.

The rest of the country hunkers down?

Hyperbole much?

No masks, no restrictions in my area.

They need not worry.

“The Masque of the Red Death”

Let’s hope it parallels it.

The 11PM local Boston news is about to start. I’ll watch the local CBS station to see the 5 seconds of coverage they give it...praising all the wonderful “progressives” in attendance.
