BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Did you hear what Obama said? This happened when I was away. When this happened, when I heard about this, I almost got on the plane and flew 12 hours back here. I could have done it on the phone but I don't trust it.
Obama in his commencement speech at Howard University, do you remember what he said? Here's what he said to the class of 2016 at Howard University: "Yes, you've worked hard, but you've also been lucky," and that's a pet peeve of mine. "People have been successful and don't realize they've been lucky, that God may have blessed them. It wasn't nothing you did!" Quote/unquote, Barack Obama, right out of the Elizabeth Warren playbook. "Hey, you didn't build that!" which Obama also has said.
Can you imagine telling college graduates, "You've worked hard, but you've been lucky, and so's every other successful person out there. They've been lucky, and they don't realize it. Wasn't [any]thing you did." And that... "Nothing." Nothing. And that is how they lay the case for Big Government. To redistribute, to make things "fair," to determine equality of outcomes, because it's just luck.
Dick Gephardt, "the successful are winners of life's lottery." I'll tell you, the American left, progressives, Democrats, are the greatest enemies of human greatness that we have to deal with. They really stand in the way of individual, group, whatever, human greatness, by disparaging it, by impugning it, by denying it. It's bad enough you think it, but to run around and send college graduates from a black university out into the world thinking that what they've just accomplished was luck? (sigh) That's the kind of thing, you know, you walk out of a speech, people saying things like that.

Well, when they all fail to find a job with their expensive __Fill In The Blank__ Studies degrees, they can blame him.................
~ “People have been successful and don’t realize they’ve been lucky, that God may have blessed them. It wasn’t nothing you did!” ~
I think Barry was/is VERY lucky, but only because SATAN has rewarded him for his level of evil!
“It wasnt nothing you did!
Whaaa? Is that ebonics, or merely grammatical ignorance?
That is factual
If not for Rush and other stalwart voices in the wilderness we may have had an ineligible marxist muslim America-hating faggot illegal alien as President.
Bammy believes that just because he has been the recipient of affirmative action, PC run amuck special considerations at every step of his life that elevated him consistently to recognition and titles that he was not qualified for, that everyone else is just the same. In reality, he knows this is not true, it is simply a defense mechanism to relieve the subconscious guilt in response to unearned merit that gnaws at the miniscule conscience that has not yet been eradicated from his dark heart.
What he’s saying here is consistent with this life philosophy. No one really achieves anything. Hence, the productive should give all their money to the government so that the government can hand out Welfare and Food Stamps and Obamacare to the unproductive.
-”Yes, you’ve worked hard, but you’ve also been lucky,” and that’s a pet peeve of mine. “People have been successful and don’t realize they’ve been lucky, that XXXGodXXX ALLAH may have blessed them. It wasn’t nothing you did!”
There, fixed it...
Excellent fix
Uh huh. “Yeah, you skipped meals and pulled all-nighters to pass those engineering finals, but you’re just lucky” is going to go over great. To someone who has never done anything, everything is easy.
Looks like yet ANOTHER speech by obongo that I missed, that makes me lucky.
The problem with Obama, is that he thinks everyone achieved their success the same way he did.
Let’s face it, if you are a lying no talent dim-witted hack like Obozo who gets all the way to the presidency of the USA, you’d have to think that success is all about luck.
I never listen to any of that arrogant pos’ speeches, and I don’t think that I miss anything
Yeah, I was lucky enough to work 2 jobs while going to college and EARNING my degree in Engineering.
This imbecile seems to think that people are just walking down the street, and some person jumps out of the bushes and hands them a certificate for tuition for college - that may be true for blacks and select other minorities; but it’s not true for whites, asians and other people who actually earn them.
This is from the Community Organizer who has been given everything he has, by virtue of his mother’s family, and the color of his skin. He worships his black father; but doesn’t seem to grasp the concept that his father ABANDONED both his mother, and him to fend for themselves.
I’m an engineer. I design things to make life better, I fix bad designs - but I cannot fix stupid. I wish I could; I would never have to work another day in my life.
Let’s see...an Islamic mulatto from Kenya gets elected as the “first black president” of theUSA...yep, sounds like luck (or fraud) to me.
If we could see his grades we’d know it was luck (or affirmative action) that got him there.
