A few weeks ago The Washington Posts’s David Swerlick wrote a piece of clickbaity dreck called “Barack Obama, conservative” (sorry, been too busy to write this until now). As you may have noticed, I didn’t embed the hyperlink to the story as I normally do. That was intentional – suffice to say I read it so that you don’t have to, and I refuse to provide a link to something this stupid. If you’re truly interested you can easily do a search on the author name and title, but it’s ten minutes of your life you’ll never get back.
To give one example of the weapons grade stupidity, Swerlick throws out the tired line that Obamacare is actually a Conservative idea, based on a 1989 Heritage Foundation paper (that apparently everyone who makes this argument didn’t read) or the fact that Pierre Dilecto inflicted this garbage onto the people of Massachusetts. Instead of trying to fight this intellectually dishonest argument, I just point out that removal of Iraq was a Leftists idea and that every Lefty who opposed/protested the war was a total hypocrite since it was a Democratic idea. A few years ago I would have dissected this idiocy piece by piece. But I’ve come to realize that when you’re arguing with someone who’s either this stupid or intellectually dishonest, facts and reality are useless. So I’m going to take the only logical course of action – agree with him!
Since Obama is a Conservative, let’s label him the same way Leftists tag all other Conservatives. Barack Obama is a racist, sexist, homophobic Xenophobe. He wants to destroy the environment. Obama hates the poor and wants to kill them off. He wants to pollute the water and air, and he helped contribute to the impending Climate Catastrophe. Don’t believe me that Obama is a Climate Denier? Then why would he buy a house on Martha’s Vineyard that every intelligent person knows for a fact will be underwater in a few years? And don’t get me started on Russia – “more flexibility after the election”? We all know what Lefties think of Russian Assets!
And if you’re the kind of person who argues that Obama was a Conservative, but praised him while condemning Bush and Trump? If you’re holding Obama to a lower standard because of the color of his skin, then you’re obviously a racist.
Take your hate speech elsewhere.
