The Incredible Lightness of Barack Obama
Israel National News ^ | November 10, 2023 | Victor Davis Hanson

Posted on 11/11/2023 10:05:21 AM PST by Twotone

U.S. President Joe Biden is caught in a quadfecta of corruption, cognitive decline, a failed agenda and eroding polls. Amid this apparent vacuum, an opportunistic Barack Obama, who used to be more discreet in managing his third term, is re-entering the arena.

Last week, he came out as the overseer of the Biden administration’s AI agenda, even as his foundation’s “Democracy Forum” was warning Americans about the need for “inclusive capitalism” and the pathologies of “material consumption”—all this from a multi-mansioned multimillionaire.

Now, Obama is weighing in on the Gaza war by undercutting his third-term presidential proxy.

Yet just as he seems somewhat clueless about the contradictions of an erstwhile “community organizer” turned into a hyper-capitalist, consumption-addicted elite, so, too, Obama has little self-awareness about how much of Biden’s unpopularity derives from his continuation of Obama’s own agendas on the economy, border, crime, race, foreign policy and energy.

His apparent obliviousness continues with his most recent odd assertion that, “The occupation and what’s happening to Palestinians is [sic] unbearable.

But Obama surely concedes that Gaza has been autonomous and free of Israelis since 2005 and governed by a “one man, one vote, once” terrorist Hamas clique since January 2006.

I nourish an especially delicious contempt for this malignant pustule that is a Muslim double-agent and Marxist messiah. Fie upon his countenance and memory.

Alan Dershowitz on Obama.

If he’s not careful, Alan Dershowitz may turn into a good guy.

He's so arrogant and egocentric it's impossible for him to comprehend that.

Yes, unbearable for Hamas and Hamas-supporting pallies.

Like the old Soviet nomenklatura they make sure to take care of themselves first and foremost.
