Michael Moore Slams Obama: All He’ll Be Remembered for Is ‘First Black President’
Mediaite ^ | 10 Sep 2014 | Josh Feldman

Political documentarian Michael Moore has repeatedly expressed his frustrations with President Obama, but this week he really stuck the knife in, saying in an interview that Obama will be remembered as the first black president and “that’s it.”

Moore spoke with The Hollywood Reporter at the Toronto Film Festival (which Moore attended to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Roger & Me) and said that despite what Obama may have claimed in 2012, he “did not save Detroit.” Moore admitted that while Obama’s done many good things, “he’s been a huge disappointment.”

But that wasn’t it for Moore, he actually went as far enough as to say in the history books, Obama will be remembered mostly for the color of his skin:

“When the history is written of this era, this is how you’ll be remembered: ‘He was the first black president.’ Okay, not a bad accomplishment, but that’s it. That’s it, Mr. Obama. A hundred years from now, ‘he was the first black American that got elected president.’ And that’s it. Eight years of your life and that’s what people are got to remember. Boy, I got a feeling, know you, that you’d probably wish you were remembered for a few other things, a few other things you could’ve done.”

Moore's grief with 0bama is that he hasn't gone far enough into totalitarian leftist destruction.
At least not yet.

The Hard Left is going to have very bitter feelings towards Obama. For a brief fleeting moment in the glow of his victory, and in the wake the collapse of the economy and the Bush Administration, he had his opportunity to shift us off of the Capitalist economic system, once and for all.

He did not do it. And they will never forgive him.

DING DING DING- Moore gets it right. But, he can't connect the dots as to why Obama is a failure and does not seem to care. This is because the media protected him because he was a transforming figure. Hell, he earned a Nobel Peace Prize for just being the first black president. OBAMA does not need to accomplish anything because history was written before he took office. This is why he doesn't care what people think of the job he is doing. Think about this, with all the criticism coming from Sarah Palin the only thing he responded to was the MOM jean comment. His hurt ego is more important than his legacy!!!

The only thing he can put his name to is ObamaCare; however, the only reason he pushed this was payback to the Democratic Super Delegates who got him the nomination (Hillary actually had more votes).

I think it will be a very long time before we have another black president.

Wow, Moore looks very unwell, even for him.

He seems to have changed gender at some point.

Machts nichts. Once this greasy hog goes belly up he won't be remembered at all.
