10 Things they want you to forget about Obama

10 things they want you to forget about Obama

1-That Middle Name

We spent many years fighting middle eastern conflicts and a dictator named Saddam Hussein. Just the sound of the name alone engenders nothing but negativity from Americans. In bizarre irony, Barack Hussein Obama's middle name never got in the way of his rise to the highest office in the nation.

2-Nobel Peace Bomber

In 2009, President Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Back in 1999, a group called 'Doctors Without Borders' was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Fast forward to October of 2015, US/NATO planes bombed a Doctors Without Borders hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan--an act which Obama apologized for. This makes Obama the second Nobel Peace Prize winner to have bombed another Nobel Peace Prize winner. The first was Henry Kissinger supposedly bombing a Red Cross facility.

3-Debt Doubled

The national debt roughly doubled under Obama's administrations from 2009-2017. It went from $10 trillion to $20 trillion. There's no nice way of putting it, this was not the Hope & Change that we expected. In all fairness, it also doubled under Bush Jr, and Bill Clinton. You would almost think there was a pattern of spending among presidents.

4-Only kept half of his promises

The website fact checker 'Politifact' charts that Obama was only able to keep half of his 533 total promises spanning two campaigns. The other half of his promises were split between broken and compromised.

5-Public Flubs

He was regarded as being a good public speaker and criticized for heavily relying on the teleprompter. He did botch a line or two though.

-Feb 2010, when talking about a Navy Corpsman, he pronounced the word as "corpse-man" not once, but twice.

-In 2008 on the campaign trail, he mentioned that he had visited "All 57 states."

-Also in 2008 when interviewed by George Stephanopoulos, Obama accidentally claimed to be of the muslim faith, then claimed he meant to say he was of the Christian faith. The cat was already out of the bag with such a big slip of the tongue that fueled many conspiracy theories which already surrounded Obama's past.

6-Sketchy Harvard history

A 1991 printout of his biography from his days at Harvard states that he was born in Kenya. Also, for a guy who was president of the Harvard Law Review, not a single publication of his can be found from that time period.

7-His racist church

From 1992-2008, he was a member of the Trinity United Church of Christ, headed by Jeremiah Wright. When footage of Pastor Wright spewing racist remarks in a sermon was made public, Obama at first claimed he could not disown Wright "any more than I can disown my own white grandmother."
Only to pull a full 180 degrees and disown Wright a short time later.

8-You might have been a racist in voting for him

If you vote for someone based on the color of their skin, that is the definition of racism. So if you voted for Obama because he's black, you were actually a racist. Let us also remember that he is half-black, half-white. On a technicality he wasn't America's first black President.

9-The conclusion of the investigation into his birth certificate

You may remember Sheriff Joe Arpaio was organizing an international team of experts to look at authenticity of Obama's birth certificate. What you may not remember is that the investigation concluded after 5 years. The team found dozens of anomalies and concluded that it was a forgery, but the press release barely got any attention.

10-The Mass Murderer

In 8 years, Obama's total number of airstrikes reached into 100,000, surpassing the 37,000 of Dubya's 8 years in office. Obama also bombed 7 countries, the most any President had done since WW2. Remember how at the end of Bush Jr's administration, we were so sick of President Dubya and his middle eastern conflicts? Obama became twice as much of a warmonger as Bush. One more of those 'Hope & Change' things we thought would be different.

Was there something else that happened during Obama's years in office that didn't get enough attention? Do you hate tyypos? Like and comment below, tell me about your thoughts.
