When the Orator Heckles

“What do you mean, ‘Make America Great Again’? I’ve already done that!”

That was the essence of Barack Obama’s thankfully final State of the Union Address last night. We’ve watched a lot of Obama’s speeches over the years (our humble service so that you won’t have to), and this one was particularly remarkable for his cocky, smug and hectoring tone — and that’s saying something for a petulant narcissist like him. Whether it was insisting that the economy is great or that climate change requires his solutions or that “America is the most powerful nation on Earth — period,” Obama is right and righteous, and anyone who disagrees is a lying clown.

We’re only surprised he didn’t claim credit for the $1.5 billion Powerball jackpot, because Obama’s awesome, America’s great, and, oh, by the way, you’re welcome, you ingrates.

What makes the tone even more obnoxious was that he eventually got around to lecturing us about political disagreements in general. “It’s one of the few regrets of my presidency that the rancor and suspicion between the parties has gotten worse instead of better,” he lamented, as if he was an innocent bystander. Of course, he has done more to foment rancor and suspicion than any other president in history.

Obama's state of the union address was pure fiction.
You got to start asking if this guy (Obama)is a compulsive liar like Hillary, or is he completely out of touch with reality.

If going around the world bowing and kissing back sides of the world leaders. Giving our enemies the keys to our safety making it great again. Well thanks to the FOOLS that voted for this inept idiot.
