Dissecting Obama's Delusional DNC Speech
American Thinker.com ^ | August 21, 2020 | Jack Cashill

Posted on 08/21/2020 5:15:35 AM PDT by Kaslin

Barack Obama's speech at the DNC's misbegotten cyber-convention worked only for those Americans, including most in the media, who paid no serious attention to the eight years of Obama's presidency. As I document in my book Unmasking Obama, I and scores of other journalists, many of them unsalaried, did pay attention. What follows are some of the riffs that I, and likely they, found most entertaining.

Obama began by telling us the Constitution "wasn't a perfect document," implying that he would have done better had he been there. Its redeeming quality was that it established "a system of representative government — a democracy — through which we could better realize our highest ideals."

As late as March 2011, Obama seemed to believe this, saying, "With respect to the notion that I can just suspend deportations through executive order, that's just not the case, because there are laws on the books that Congress has passed."

In 2012, with re-election looming, Obama unilaterally decided he could suspend deportations through executive orders. He gave out a million or so work authorizations while he was at it, arguing that he personally could make laws that were "more fair, more efficient, and more just" than Congress. Curiously, that is almost exactly what Stalin told the Politburo when he forcibly collectivized Ukrainian farms.

Said Obama at the DNC: "Donald Trump hasn't grown into the job because he can't. And the consequences of that failure are severe. One hundred seventy thousand Americans dead. Millions of jobs gone while those at the top take in more than ever."

The Greatest Fraud Ever deserves justice more swift and lasting (after a speedy trial and conviction, of course).

<><> ex-presidents are prohibited from exploiting the presidency
<><> shakedowns of entities with whom they conducted official business are prohibited,
<><> profiteering by ex-presidents is to be penalized to the fullest extent of the law.

EXCLUSIVE: The Obama Treasury Department Spied on Flynn, Manafort, and the Trump Family
The Ohio Star ^ | 18 May 2020 | Neil W. McCabe / FR posted by Erik Latranyi

President Barack Obama’s Treasury Department regularly surveiled retired Army Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn’s financial records and transactions beginning in December 2015 and well into 2017, before, during and after when he served at the White House as President Donald Trump’s National Security Director, a former senior Treasury Department official, and veteran of the intelligence community, told the Star Newspapers.

“I started seeing things that were not correct, so I did my own little investigation, because I wanted to make sure what I was seeing was correct” she said. “You never want to draw attention to something if there is not anything there.”
The whistleblower said she only saw metadata, that is names and dates when the general’s financial records were accessed. “I never saw what they saw.”

By March 2016, the whistleblower said she and a colleague, who was detailed to Treasury from the intelligence community, became convinced that the surveillance of Flynn was not tied to legitimate criminal or national security concerns, but was straight-up political surveillance among other illegal activity occurring at Treasury.

“When I showed it to her, what she said, ‘Oh, sh%t!’ and I knew right then and there that I was right – this was some shady stuff,” the whistleblower said.’

“It wasn’t just him,” the whistleblower said. “They were targeting other U.S. citizens, as well.”

Only two names are listed in the whistleblower’s official paperwork, so the others must remain sealed, she said. The second name is Paul J. Manafort Jr., the one-time chairman of Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.

The other names include: Members of Congress, the most senior staffers on the 2016 Trump campaign and members of Trump’s family, she said.(Excerpt) Read more at theohiostar.com ...

The “Members of Congress” being spied upon by Obama could be a goldmine of info.
Betcha good money, Obama was spying on DEMOCRATS.

Was Obama checking to see if Democrats were holding out on his share of the graft?

One of Thomas Jefferson’s indictments against the king that justified the declaration and subsequent colonial rebellion:
“He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.”

Sounds a lot like an early American description of the Obama/Biden years
<><> siccing the IRS on innocent law-abiding citizens
<><> Obama was obsessed w/ govt wiretaps——numbers rose 71% during one year of Obama’s reign
<><> Obama used drones to shoot down Americans
<><> Obama’s state dept covered-up of sex scandals-—obstructing justice
<><> Obama nixed sex-related investigations (w/ Joe’s help?)
<><> Obama’s DOJ labeled Fox journo Rosen a criminal; charging him, spying on his family—
<><> Obama monitored the Asso Press,
<><> Obama via Verizon spied on the USSC via their blackberries
<><> Obama spied on Congress via Verizon blackberries

LESSON OF THE DAY -— don’t elect a kingpin of organized Chicago criminal politics, a cunning con artist to run the govt ...... OR his henchman.

A “cool, clean, smooth talker,” Obama ran a monstrous govt we the people forcibly lived under-— a police state capable of extraordinary crimes against its people.all

"Said Obama at the DNC: "Donald Trump hasn't grown into the job because he can't. And the consequences of that failure are severe. One hundred seventy thousand Americans dead. Millions of jobs gone while those at the top take in more than ever."

To blame Trump for the COVID dead is disgraceful, pure demagoguery."

With that right there, any thinking individual would have dismissed Obama as credible.

Obama hates the Constitution because it says he can’t be President.

Too bad not one of our elected or appointed would uphold it.

Obama has too many Republicans who helped him violate the Constitution protecting him for that to ever happen.

They nailed it!

“According to Obama, Biden and Harris ‘believe that no one — including the president — is above the law, and that no public official — including the president — should use their office to enrich themselves or their supporters.’

“At the time Obama ran for U.S. Senate in 2004, he was still struggling to pay his student debts. Today, the Obamas have a net worth north of $40 million, almost as much as the Clintons and slightly more than Hunter Biden.”

Regarding the "constitutional scholar" Obama, what turned me against him during his time in the senate was his quote in an interview that the constiution was a document that LIMITED the government's power.

That single statement SHOULD HAVE been enough to get him permanently kicked out of school! Mark
