 Obama Hopes His Successor Will Be As Serious About Serious Issues As He Is – Seriously Delusional
GrassTopsUSA Exclusive Commentary

The current occupant of the White House – Barack, the first of his name – is seriously unhappy with the comments of two contenders for the Republican presidential nomination, Having endured their logic for as long as he could, Obama unburdened himself in Addis Ababa on Monday.
While saving some disdain for Donald Trump, POTUS was particularly incensed by the comments of former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, who said the president's genocide-in-the-making deal with Iran is like marching Israelis "to the ovens." Such rhetoric is "part of a general pattern that you've seen that would be considered ridiculous if it weren't so sad," the leader of the universe dolefully intoned.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu – who Obama loathes more than any other leader – has said much the same thing in different words. In 2014, an unnamed source in a White House famous for its civility called Netanyahu "chicken sh*t."
But the president was just getting warmed up. Some Republicans may feign shock over Trump's rhetoric, "and yet that arises out of a culture where those kinds of outrageous attacks (like suggesting Obamacare is a wealth-redistribution scheme) have become far too commonplace and get circulated nonstop through the Internet and talk radio, news outlets."
Obama then confided, "In 18 months, I'm turning over the keys. I want to make sure that I'm turning over the keys to someone who is serious about the serious problems that the country faces and the world faces." Seriously?
The president – who's a hardcore ideologue with the disposition of a spoiled child – hopes that whoever takes over from him will be as serious as he is – seriously delusional.
The Iran surrender – which is in line with Obama's other foreign policy disasters – makes Munich look like "trust-but-verify." The president is saying to the American people: "Are you going to believe what the ayatollahs say the deal means to them, or what I'm telling you it means to them?"
This much is clear:
• It will unfreeze $150 billion in Iranian assets, which Tehran will use to further its nuclear program and support global jihad. Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei promises: "Whether the deal is approved or disapproved, we will never stop supporting our friends in the region and the (most dangerous) people of Palestinian, Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Bahrain and Lebanon." In congressional testimony on Tuesday, Secretary of State John Kerry admitted that Iran is the foremost sponsor of international terrorism.
• Once sanctions are lifted, Iran will be able to import unlimited quantities of conventional weapons – which will eventually to be used to kill Christians, Jews, Sunnis and Kurds in the Middle East.
• The regime's intentions – the annihilation of America, a nuclear Holocaust for Israel – are no more in doubt than Hitler's were in "Mein Kampf."
• There will be no snap inspections of the terror-state's nuclear facilities.
• Tehran says there will be no inspections of nuclear facilities on Iranian military bases. All the mullahs have to do to put a reactor off limits is to declare the surrounding area a military base,
• If a requested inspection is rejected, the dispute will go to an international arbitration committee loaded with Iran's friends or those it can easily influence.
• The deal Obama and Kerry have worked out depends on the good faith and reasonableness of the most viciously insane regime on earth.
Of course, the president is equally serious about a broad range of issues.
On average, 1,000 illegal aliens a day have entered the United States since Obama became president. He refuses to secure the border, issues unconstitutional amnesties (that he calls executive orders), sues states that try to do the job Washington won't do, and facilitated the entry of 300,000 juveniles from Central America last year, doing everything but handing out fruit baskets at the border.
Last week, the president who's the nation's greatest enabler of illegal immigration, threatened to veto pending legislation which would cut off federal funding for sanctuary cities. A White House statement said the measure doesn't further comprehensive immigration reform (amnesty) – which the president feels is furthered by municipalities that shelter the most dangerous undocumented criminals. If Obama had a daughter who was murdered by an illegal alien, would she look like Kate Steinle?
The National Debt is a problem of staggering proportions. Even Obama expressed concern about this mountain of IOUs – before he became president. On July 3, 2008, candidate Obama said Bush's contribution (adding $4 trillion in eight years) was "irresponsible" and "unpatriotic." His predecessor had put that amount on "a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children," Obama charged.
To date, this president has added over $8 trillion to the National Debt, taking it to over $18 trillion, with a year and a half still to go. Since September 30, 2012, the National Debt has increased at an average rate of $2.03 billion a day. Obama's idea of confronting this serious problem seriously is by threatening to veto any increase in the debt ceiling that's accompanied by meaningful fiscal reforms.
In a February CNN poll, 39% of Americans said race relations have gotten worse under Obama, compared to 15% who said they've improved. The president who was supposed to bring us together rarely misses a chance to divide us based on skin color.
When his friend Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates was arrested in 2009, the Cambridge police "acted stupidly," the president sneered.
If he had a son, "he'd look like Trayvon" Martin, who died in an altercation with a neighborhood watch captain in Sanford, Florida. The latter was acquitted of second-degree murder.
Last year, when a grand jury refused to indict a white cop who shot a black teen in self-defense, the Department of Justice sent dozens of investigators to Ferguson, Missouri to try to make a civil rights case against the officer. When that didn't work, it issued a report charging the Ferguson police department with "a broad pattern of racially biased enforcement." For this president, all black lives matter – unless it's the life of a black man who just lost his job to an illegal immigrant.
As his go-to guy on race, the president chose none other than Al Sharpton – perpetrator of the Tawana Brawley fraud and inciter of the Crown Heights and Freddy's Fashion Mart lynch mobs. Obama has a racial chip the size of a sequoia on his shoulder. He believes racism is endemic to America and that in any racial confrontation, whites are guilty until proven innocent.
Benghazi (he lied about the cause for two weeks), Fast and Furious, losing the war on terrorism, the IRS scandal (the president says the only scandal is inadequate funding for the rogue agency), and guns and crime (he also says guns in private hands are more of a threat to Americans than terrorism) – all demonstrate how Obama deals seriously with serious problems – by denying reality.
Whoever succeeds him, when President Obama turns over the keys on January 20, 2017, the most serious problem now confronting the country and the world will be gone.
