At the Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony on Saturday, former president Barack Obama and the late actor Chadwick Boseman had notable wins.

Obama won the outstanding narrator Emmy Award for his work on the Netflix documentary, "Our Great National Parks."

Higher Ground, Barack and Michelle Obama's production company, created the five-part docuseries on national parks and wildlife throughout the world.

Obama is the second US president to win an Emmy. Dwight Eisenhower was awarded an honorary Governors Award by the Television Academy while he was still in office in 1956.

It figures that the one President in American history who closed all the National Parks and Monuments during the 2013 government shutdown, was tapped to narrate a documentary series on those same National Parks, and then gets an Emmy for it. Must be his half-white privilege.

A sloppy act of journalistic gratification for which they should design a lobster bib.

The mindset at Netflix that encouraged them to employ Barack Obama for these things is the principal reason I cancelled my Netflix subscription after 15 years.

To the left, Obama is a deity. They worship him at every opportunity.

As I mentioned on another thread about this story, I thought that national parks were racist, as per what BLM activists and their INGSOC media friends told us.

Everything he says, as JFK, has a snotty, holier-than-thou attitude. At least in his public speaking. In interiews, as JFK, he was a totally different kind of rube.

I don’t mind Obama. He did nothing in office. If I was a democrat I would hate him more than I do as a republican. I can’t figure out why his team liked him so much. He screwed up every single opportunity.

I point out that Trump and Reagan signed off on more gun control than Obama did.

He was arrogant. Biden's handlers (Obama? He is still in DC) learned from Obama's mistakes during his administration.

Biden is much more calculating and is playing for keeps.

It’s worth the same as his “Peace” award.
Shi...er...excrement.
Just like his life.
