Maureen Dowd on Obama. "We just weren’t ready for his amazing awesomeness."

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/02/o...form=hootsuite

Excerpt:

Perhaps Obama should have used a different line with a celestial theme by Shakespeare: “The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.”

As president, Obama always found us wanting. We were constantly disappointing him. He would tell us the right thing to do and then sigh and purse his lips when his instructions were not followed.

I am not sure if that article is 100% serious or satire.

And they wonder why the notion of media bias is out there. I know this is an opinion piece but it is exemplary of just how far out of touch so many of these historically "trusted" outlets are or were. And out of touch is putting it nicely.

It is objectively verifiable that this man was the most unqualified person to ever be President of the United States. Only people not thinking, but feeling, will tell you otherwise.

Like his presidency, it showed. At least Bill Clinton was a seasoned politician who told the truth about a few things. With Obama, the DNC went full retard, which showed you something about the stage of American culture and decline at that point in history.

Read the entire thing myself.


It is amazingly hard to believe somebody is this efficiently ignorant.

The first part of article is mentioning parts from Ben Rhodes new book.

The last part of the article is her take (which is not flattering).
