THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS

 

The Mother Ship posted:

"Obama JUST doesn’t get it

OBAMA SLAMS AMERICA’S FOUNDERS..……."



This is wrong, of course.

Former President Obama actually "gets it." The blogger and her MAGAs are the people who don't "get it." 

The Founding Fathers wrote (Jefferson) and signed the DoI that said all men are created equal in the eyes of God and are granted inalienable rights. But those inalienable rights were not granted to women, non-property owners, and the slaves that the Founding Fathers themselves owned. They fell short of their own words! TRUTH!

This is the preamble to the Constitution:

"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." 

The Founding Fathers KNEW we had to work toward "...a more perfect Union."

The woman who runs that blog has no understanding of this, so she happily attacks former President Obama, who actually taught Constitutional Law, for being Constitutionally accurate in his speech.

This is more evidence of how appallingly ignorant many MAGA cultists are.


But NOT OBAMA!   He picks that day, in our 250th year to slam our forefathers…to bring up SLAVERY!   NO context, NO understanding of White people also having been enslaved, NO knowledge of slave owners who actually were good to their slaves (I saw a Black man maybe 35 years ago explaining that…though nobody thinks having human beings as slaves, of course!), NO love of country which would prohibit his slamming our founding fathers at a big event……………….NOT OBAMA! 


She actually believes slave owners  "...were good to their slaves." Did she ever question the idea of being "good" to people you OWN? Does she even think about the evil inherent in the ownership of a human being? The question answers itself. She doesn't "think" at all. She reacts with MAGA emotions and ignorance. 

BTW, she also has no sense that the opening of the Obama presidential library was a PRIVATE affair, it had nothing to do with the 250 anniversary of the founding of this country. But, again, she is MAGA; she doesn't think; she reacts with her hatred of a president who outshines Trump in every desirable human trait: dignity, intelligence, grace, and decency.

This blogger and many other MAGAs continue to slander Mr. Obama by lying about his love of America.  IMO, it shows how indecent they are -- and mendacious.


Geeez:

“ I HOPE that some of the contractors saying how they’re owed millions of dollars for having worked on the Obama Library.”


(This is rumor. I fact-checked it, and there are disputes, but no factual evidence of being stiffed, she must be thinking of her hero, Trump, who actually took contractors to court to get out of paying them what he owed. That is fact.)  

AI:

"Donald Trump has a documented history of stiffing contractors, subcontractors, and employees. Investigations and court records have revealed that over the last several decades, his companies have been involved in thousands of lawsuits and mechanic's liens from workers alleging they were short-changed or never fully paid for their services."

Geeez smears Mr. Obama's daughter, Malia:

Not content with attacking a beloved and admired former president, she had to attack his older daughter, saying she looked like "a streetwalker."

If anyone needed more evidence of their roiling racism, GEEEZ never disappoints with her wallowing in it. A streetwalker is another word for "whore," and "hooker." She used that word to describe Malia Obama. This is a perfect example of the disgusting misogyny and bigotry of MAGA:

 GEEEZ wrote: "One poor Obama daughter was wearing a very low cut tailored suit which made her look like a streetwalker….I guess her mother doesn’t have any clout or doesn’t think young women in the public eye might not want to show half their breasts at noon?   Do it in the evening…do it in private, but …really?

Can you tell I’m not an Obama fan BY A LONG SHOT?!

(Trump was not invited)

********************************


GEEEZ, always one to demonstrate her Christian charity and kindness, left out the fact that while Trump was at the G7 in Europe last week, he second-handedly insulted by proxy, Mr. Obama, and called him a "stupid son of a bitch." And last weekend a half-witted UFC fighter uttered a disgusting slur about former First Lady, Michelle Obama, in front of Trump and the world, and Trump let it pass without comment or condemnation. This disrespectful incident happened on the tax-payer grounds of the White House.

GEEEZ can't understand why the low-class, trash-talking, Obama slandering Trump, wasn't invited by the Obama's to their private and dignified opening of his presidential library?

Tell us you're drowning in MAGA misogyny, racism, and resentment while not telling us.

This is why Trump is so vicious in his attacks against the Obamas, and why, it appears, Geeez is too. They can't handle the truth!:



From AI:

Barack Obama is consistently more admired than Donald Trump, with recent national surveys reflecting a clear double-digit advantage in both overall favorability and public admiration. 
A nationwide poll conducted by CNN reveals exactly where the two figures stand: 
  • Favorability Ratings: Obama holds a 57% favorability rating among U.S. adults, compared to 34% for Trump. 
  • "Most Admired" Figure: When asked which president throughout U.S. history they admire most, 30% of Americans named Obama, placing him ahead of Trump at 19%. 
  • Independent Voters: Obama's favorability among political independents is more than double that of Trump’s. 
  • Bipartisan Appeal: While views on both men are largely shaped by party lines, Obama still garners a notably higher share of cross-party support than Trump does.

So Shaw... here is the total part of the speech which offended the Geeezers. 229 words. I can guarantee you no one at that site, nor Ms Z, ever read or heard the passage below. Because rather than link to it, she linked to a Fox "We all hate Obama here" News article.

"And since we’re a few weeks away from America’s 250th birthday, it is worth remembering just how radical the whole idea of self-government really was back in 1776. To that point, human history was a tale of conquest and caste and rigid hierarchies, a world where the strong dominated the weak, where power and wealth and status flowed through lineage and the many were ruled by the few.

But out of the fire and steel of a revolution, a different story took flight on this continent, a declaration that we are all created equal, endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights, and that in the newly independent United States, there will be no kings or lords, no serfs or subjects, but only citizens, each of us free to pursue our own version of happiness, and able to determine our collective faith through an elected representative government.It had not been done. And because it hadn’t been done before, the success of this experiment was never a given. In forming our union, the founders fell terribly short of the Declaration’s promise, leaving slavery intact, allowing states to restrict the franchise to white men who owned property, but in drafting a Constitution and a Bill of Rights, they did have the foresight, the genius to provide us with a framework that allows each generation to make our union more perfect."


I loaded her post into ChatGPT and asked it to characterize her words. Here's I got back.

"I would characterize your friend's post as a mix of partisan reaction, historical grievance, emotional venting, and several logical fallacies, rather than a careful engagement with what Obama actually said.

What's striking is that Obama's statement is actually fairly conventional and would not have been controversial among most historians, including many conservatives. He is expressing two ideas simultaneously:

The founders failed to fully live up to the ideals they proclaimed (because slavery remained and voting rights were limited). The founders nevertheless created a constitutional system capable of reform and improvement.

That's not a radical interpretation. In fact, it's very close to the view held by figures across the political spectrum, from Frederick Douglass to Abraham Lincoln, both of whom criticized America's failures while affirming the promise of its founding principles."


Let's remember... Ms Z, and many others like her, including our current president, do not want to hear thoughts or ideas that involve critical thinking, bad news or critical comments about POTUS Trump. All of that to them is "fake news"

Pres Obama did not slam America, or our founders. He spoke the truth. Z, and her followers, just don't like it.

They can't hide their ignorance and racism.
MAGA IS racism to its ugly core. It's really MAWA, Make America White Again. Never mind it never was.

Les Carpenter said...

For MAGAs like the one you posted about ignorance is bliss. Their ignorance (and hate) allows them to constantly feed and constantly reinforce their desires. Their desires to believe the fictional stories their malignant narcissist cult leader tells them to believe and the additional stories they create in their troubled minds that reinforce their cult leaders lies.

Can't fix stupid and there are a lot of MAGAs that, like Geeez, can't be fixed. They WANT DESPERATELY to believe the lies are true. Even though EVIDENCE confirms they are lies.

BB-Idaho said...

They are seemingly (and hopefully) a circular firing squad. Too bad they are
so damned inaccurate. History will judge Trump and he will be an example
of a Hitler wanabbe..

Craig said...

A few days, today, after posting her fallacious hate filled screed against the Obamas, she posts a meme calling liberals haters. I don't think she's aware of how self unaware she is.

I found this humorous comment at the Mothership today. A woman who, apparently, lives on a side of a bay was lamenting those nasty Iranians (Lucy) keep pulling the football away from Charlie Brown (Trump). Totally lost on her is that the dim witted Charlie Brown keeps falling for it. When will he learn?

Les Carpenter said...

Fear of loss (loss of identity) drives the MAGAs into the embrace of an authoritarian populous and racist that promises he will save them (and the country) from being overrun by brown people and people of non X'tian faith.

Unfortunately for them, and fortunately for people of good will, they will ultimately lose and lose bigly.

Positive change occurs slowly over long periods of time. The pendulum will swing left again. And when it does it will do so with a vengeance not seen since the Bolshevic Revolution in Russia.

Dave Miller said...

Oh Craig... don't try to make sense of it, because there is none. That's Santa Monica Bay BTW., where real estate prices currently sit at between $1100 and $1400 a sq foot.

That crowd is seeing absolutely no pain from the current gas prices, inflation, etc.

My favorite post of the last few days is the one begging for some good news. It includes a list of laments that includes the paint peeling from the Lincoln Memorial reflection pool, the ballroom cost overruns and who's paying for it, ICE, the Iran War and our abandoning of Ukraine.

If only we could find a single through line we could see in all of those debacles, maybe, just maybe we could fashion a solution.

Shaw Kenawe said...

"I don't think she's aware of how self unaware she is." Bingo! I say this every time I read her posts. She is a faithful consumer of Fox News, and occasionally looks in on CNN, which she's labeled as "America haters," when CNN reports anything negative about Trump and his administration.

Her idea of a good American is to behave like good little North Koreans and worship anything from Trump. Anything short of adulation is considered by her and her commenters, traitorous.

This is the blog that regularly refers to former President Obama as the "Halfrican." And I have read the "Big Mike Obama" reference there as well.

Craig said...

Oh Craig... don't try to make sense of it, because there is none.

Oh Dave, I don't. I read her blog to see what's going on in the MAGA brain. Sometimes for laughs (funny but pathetic), sometimes to internally fact check (For when I encounter MAGAs in the wild). Mostly I look at it like, and I'm not proud of this, people who slow down to gawk at a terrible car accident.

BTW, Dave, According to Mz. Zs post today, you hate God. That's a MAGA article of faith.

Shaw Kenawe said...

Craig, that’s why I read that blog as well. I like to understand, or at least try to,the MAGA mind. GEEEZ is a bit more honest than most of them because she at least has the ability at times to see why Trump is so bad at what he does. For the last 10 years, she has fantasized about him becoming a statesman and expressing himself in whole sentences and with rationality. Of course, he disappoints her time and again, and she never understands why. After 10 years, it has never dawned on her that Trump is simply incapable of rational thought or being a decent human being.

They are also blinded to the fact that he mirrors a North Korean dictator, demanding adulation, and praise from his cabinet members, and calling anything that comes near to criticizing him fake news or communists! The folks at the GEEEZ blog faithfully carry water for the Trump administration and Trump himself because they can’t handle the truth.

Dave Miller said...

Yeah Craig... I encounter those folks all the time in person. They can't understand how I do what I do, you know, like provide free health care to thousands of indigenous ppl in Mexico every year, support local church AND not vote for Trump.

What can I do?

Les Carpenter said...

Keep doing what you do. You help make life a bit better for many.

You're obsessed with Z. I'll let her know of your crush for her.... ;)

It seems following the teachings of Jesus really pisses off some Christians.

Re: "a different story took flight on this continent, a declaration that we are all created equal, endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights, and that in the newly independent United States, there will be no kings or lords"

It's a different set of propaganda and lies nearly all Americans have been swallowing like little navie kids!

The "No Kings movement" is --- like the "MAGA movement" or the "Black Lives Movement" and other phony grassroot "movements" --- a US regime-controlled operation to either control the opposition via such hope porn movements or divert them into safe outlets IN ORDER TO PREVENT A MASS REVOLUTION AGAINST the totally criminal ENTIRE US REGIME which is, AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN, run by PSYCHOPATHIC KINGS (not just Trump)!

The bogus 'no kings' movement wants you to think once Trump is gone everything's alright AS IF IT'S ONLY A TRUMP ISSUE. It's the same child-like mentality and stupidity of millions of people who "think" and hang on to the fake hope or fantasy that once their democrat/republican candidate is in office things will be fundamentally better again!

ANY criminal beta psychopath who has ended up and ends up in high office is merely always a lower-ranked willfully participating puppet or agent serving the true pack of alpha psychopaths behind the scenes. Removing the public-facing immoral criminals has never solved anything vital at all, and never will.

By FAR the most vital urgent and DEEP understanding everyone needs to gain is that a mafia network of manipulating PSYCHOPATHS (psychopathic KINGS) is, and always has been, governing big businesses and institutions (eg official medicine, big academia, big tech, big banks, big religions), governments and the world -- the evidence is very solid in front of everyone's "awake" nose: see “The 2 Married Pink Elephants In The Historical Room”... https://www.rolf-hefti.com/covid-19-coronavirus.html

"We’ll sit on the edge of our seats watching made-up tales about psychopathic killers while psychopathic killers rule the world." --- Caitlin Johnstone, Independent Journalist

"America is the greatest exporter of violence the world has ever known. So wear your patriotism on your sleeve and be proud. You are a depraved citizen of the world’s worst killer nation." --- Paul Craig Roberts, Ph.D., American economist & former US empire official, in 2015 [https://archive.ph/liVj5]

"I've come to realize that the biggest problem anywhere in the world is that people's perceptions of reality are compulsively filtered through the screening mesh of WHAT THEY WANT, AND DO NOT WANT, TO BE TRUE." --- Travis Walton, Author

"If we have learned anything in the past six years, it is that vaccinologists, doctors, and the government in general do not have good intentions and never did. The clear intention of everyone concerned was and is to make as much dirty money as possible, letting any amount of collateral damage slide, including a genocide and mass poisoning [with Covid-19 jabs]. The fact [is] that Big Pharma just murdered millions of people, with the full support of government, media, and “science”. With Covid, everyone is part of the fraud, many of them paid off, so no one has any reason to expose it, and big reasons to bury it. Don't believe anything these people tell you, ABOUT ANYTHING. It isn't time for a civil war against your neighbors, it is time for a revolution against these hoaxers and thieves." --- Miles Mathis, American author, in 2025

"Ignorance is the root cause of all Evil. Since only Knowledge eradicates ignorance, it is our duty and moral obligation to educate ourselves, as well as the masses around us." --- Anonymous

Speaking of ignorance is evil, how can the masses get out of this whole mess? First, EVERYONE needs to learn, and teach others, what true morality is (it's NOT the same as religious morality): https://www.whatonearthishappening.com/news/988-mark-passio-interviewed-by-axel-dahi-2026-04-16

Les Carpenter said...

Yeah, because they have no idea what the true teachings of Jesus are. And, they prefer their X'tian Nationalism and supporting Zionist genocide.

skudrunner said...

Dave, Just look at all the good things you could do if you turned your talent for providing for indigenous in the US, the country who supports you and so you can use the tax deductible money out of the country.
Have you ever been to the reservations in Northern Arizona/ New Mexico or Nevada. Lot of good could be done but you choose to not assist in your own country, why is that?

Dave Miller said...

Thanks Les. I've always looked at my faith like this... I could be wrong and there's nothing eternal at the end of life. If so, so be it. But my life won't be wasted as some say. It will have been a good run, helping lots of people live a better life.

Sadly Craig, what I do gets described as suicidal empathy, the bugaboo for a lot of Christian who have no interest or desire to even try and make the world a better place if it means there's a cost for the US.

Shaw Kenawe said...

I'm not answering for Dave M., he's more than capable of doing that. But I will, as blog host, put in my two cents:

We live in such a globally connected world that ignoring problems elsewhere often creates larger, more expensive problems for us at home.

Do you not see, skud, that Dave M. makes a differences by helping those who need help in becoming economically and socially independent would contribute to those very people being able to thrive and prosper in their own country? Isn't that a worthy goal? Especially considering how many Americans resent people coming across our southern border seeking to improve their lives here? Dave is actually helping them improve their lives THERE!

I'm surprised skudrunner would post such an ungenerous criticism about someone doing good work for people. That work benefits Americans and their south-of-the border neighbors. Dave does more than help our neighbors, he is an example to them of the inherent goodness in most Americans.

Shaw Kenawe said...

Obsessed? Nah. Interested in the way that a biologist studies how a healthy organism invites its own destruction by ingesting poison.

They are perfect specimens. They actually ingest Trumpism and their MAGA numbers are decreasing. Trump is polling at 34% approval, and only 16% of the American people approved of his UFC debacle and the destruction he perpetrated on the grounds of the WH.

PS. Like a grammar school child, you went running to her to tattle on what my blog wrote. That's so cute. Talk about someone having a "crush!" You're her own precious informant! Did she give you a little pat on your head for your work?


Shaw Kenawe said...

BTW, Geeez is a mirror of what Trump. If you don’t share her MAGA ideology, you’re out and not welcome. She banned BB-Idaho, as well as Dave M.

We know her kind. She doesn’t want to hear anything that challenges her preconceived ideas. Right now on her blog she’s got a list of everything that she BELIEVES liberals hate! Hilarious for the lies and misrepresentation. But it makes her feel good and self- satisfied, so she’s going to stick with it.

Now be sure to go back and tell her all this like a good little informer.
