Hussein never knew what he was going to say next, and he didn’t care. He actually thought he was coming up with the ideas which were being fed into his empty skull.
Scary, in a way, but impressive, how easily he was tooled to be the public face of a shadowy cabal of leftists. He actually thought he was in charge.

Mentioning him is irrelevant in any larger discussion now because the radicals basically view him as a white Republican anyway; none of these thugs in the street are even mentioning him. His betrayal of those in the ‘hood actually drives a lot of their rage; “Black Lies Matter” started on his watch for that very reason.

I have considered a possible theory. There was more than a little suspicion that Scalia was killed. its a remote possibility that the reason Mitch refused to give Garland the shot was that. Replacing Scalia with a leftist would send the SC hard left for a decade. And its just the kind of ruthless move Obongo would make in his final year.

When Obama spoke it reminded a tad of Bean's speech about Whistler's mother.
Bean (paraphrasing): "What is striking about this painting is that it is a painting of Whistler's ... MOTHER."
Obama was stuffy and said obvious things everyone already knows but expected everyone to be impressed and astonished by his remarks.

Yup! Just ask Val Jar.

I will always think that Garland was revenge for the way the leftists treated Bork.

That’s only for a President with the magic “D” after his name.

Seriously? Key into your browser "liberals disappointed Obama centrist"; here are a few: Washington Examiner, 2011" Senior adviser David Axelrod insisted to bloggers in a roundtable that Obama's views haven't shifted. "I give you, as God is my witness, my word that we have not had a repositioning discussion here," Axelrod said, according to a transcript posted by the Nation. "We have not talked about let's move three degrees to the right." In order to succeed, Obama needs to win back the independent voters who helped propel him into office in 2008 but have since left him in large part over his economic policies and inability to reverse the country's persistent high unemployment. "While he hasn't abandoned progressives, he's worked to embrace those from the reasonable right," said David Badash, a New York-based civil rights activist. "Going into 2012, rational Americans will all be focused on the same issue: jobs." New York Times, 2011: Mr. (Robert) Reich is not pleased by the presidents message of late. By freezing federal salaries, by talking about deficits, by extending the Bush tax cuts, hes legitimizing a Republican narrative, Mr. Reich says. Why wont he tell the alternative story? For three decades weve cut taxes on the wealthy while real wages stood still. Mr. Obamas liberal economics critics include Nobel Prize winners, Paul R. Krugman, the Princeton professor and columnist for The New York Times, and Joseph E. Stiglitz, the Columbia professor who served as chairman of Mr. Clintons Council of Economic Advisors. Simon Johnson, former chief economist at the International Monetary Fund and a professor at M.I.T., once advised liberals to stop blaming Mr. Obamas advisers for pushing policies too friendly to Wall Street the president makes those decisions. Mr. Reich served as labor secretary for President Clinton, and in his latest book Aftershock: The Next Economy and Americas Future he applauds Mr. Obama for deft work in preventing the economy from toppling into a Depression. But the president demanded too little of the bankers he saved, Mr. Reich says, and he conflated a rising stock market and soaring corporate profits with an improving economy. The Guardian, 2019: Would it be uncouth to say that Obama has become
a centrist dad? Who lectures people with extremely mundane, unsolicited opinions? Here are some past examples: 1. When he told Black Lives Matter to stop yelling - In 2016, Obama met young people in Europe and was asked whether his administration had gone far enough in tackling racial profiling. Instead of answering the question, Obama turned his attention towards the Black Lives Matter movement. Once youve highlighted an issue and brought it to peoples attention
then you cant just keep on yelling at them, Obama said. And so, the president who ran on a campaign promising people Yes, we can was using his platform to criticize a campaign group working to highlight how routinely American police shoot and kill unarmed black men. 2. When he complained about woke culture - When Obama took the stage to talk down to young people in October, it was almost too easy to agree with him. The world is messy, he said, so we should be more careful about our tendency to cancel people online especially if our judgment is replacing real action. Which all sounds fair enough. But then came his central message: that change is incremental. We cant completely remake society in a minute. This idea of purity and youre never compromised and youre always politically woke
you should get over that quickly, he said. There is a term for older people who benefitted from the boom and are now criticising young people for wanting change too quickly, and I think its: OK, boomer. 3. When he said America was not ready for real change - In November, Obama who now has a net worth of $70m stood up in front of a room of similarly wealthy people to reassure them that the system doesnt need to be radically changed. Even as we push the envelope and we are bold in our vision, we also have to be rooted in reality, Obama said at the annual Democracy Alliance meeting, attended by wealthy liberal donors. The average American doesnt think we have to completely tear down the system and remake it. Perhaps Americans wanting radical change should re-think their approach. Get ready to lean in to good health insurance, everybody! 4. When he bragged about helping oil companies - At a Rice University gala in 2018, Obama took credit for the oil and gas boom in America. It went up every year I was president. Suddenly Americas the biggest oil producer and the biggest gas. That was me, people, say thank you, he said. Oil production grew 88% under Obamas two terms. The US is also one of the biggest consumers of fossil fuels, and the planet is literally burning so this is not exactly something to be proud of, but credit where credit is due, I guess. 5. When he said hed stand up to stop Sanders - Obama has said he would support any Democratic nominee for president in 2020. But judging by a Politico report from November, he doesnt include Bernie Sanders in that list. The piece quoted close sources to him who said that Obama has refrained from speaking out against Bernie so far because Sanders doesnt look like a credible threat. But privately, Politico reported, Obama has vowed to speak up to stop him if it looks like Sanders has a proper shot at winning the nomination. This is why Obama isn't even mentioned by the radicals in the street today; they view him as a total sell-out.

Scalia was murdered”
That is my belief as well. We were told his family refused an autopsy. Maybe true, maybe not.

I think if Garland had been voted on, the nomination would have failed. Then what would Obama have said??
