Do you agree with Obama?

Do you agree with Obama?

YES! President Obama is our moral leader!

No, he's yours, bud. I don't subscribe.

Well, sparky, you don't have to "subscribe" - but President Obama's morals far surpass Trump's! President Obama even surpasses Evangelicals on the moral scale.

Trump wasn’t elected to be a moral example. He was elected to push a conservative agenda which he has had some success with

Obama asked

"How hard is it to say that Nazis are bad?"

I agree with that

How hard was it to say Islamic terrorists are bad? He couldn’t even call them Islamic terrorists.

How hard is it to say socialists are bad (not just the national socialists)?

Or communism is bad?

reviewing the transcripts of his speech today, I had to comment on this:

You cannot sit back and wait for a savior. You can’t opt out because you don’t feel sufficiently inspired by this or that particular candidate. This is not a rock concert. This is not Coachella. We don’t need a messiah.

I’m sorry. But we do very much need a Messiah. In fact, we have one and His name is Jesus Christ.

So I disagree and I suspect many others will too. Do you agree with Obama? Or do you need Christ?

He is not talking about a religious messiah. He's talking about a political messiah. And he's right. We're all hoping for some sort of singular inspirational leader to take charge politically. It's isn't going to happen. We need to concentrate on what we have - advancing the best candidates on every level.

They are one and the same

A Democratic president with 60 votes and control of Congress would be the equivalent of a political Messiah at this point... This OP is another phony scandal of course...

It’s phony to quote the former President and ask whether you agree with him?

I'm afraid that Obumma was referring to TRUMP as the "messiah" we all don't need! Which I found funny as he proffered HIMSELF as something of a messiah in 2008, here to save us from GW Bush!

I don’t remember anyone claiming Trump is a Messiah

Obama did not use Christ in the statement.

Because old men predated thousands of years by Christ brainwashed you to not believe, in the pages of their books which are now dustier than their bones. Sounds legit.

I think he means pols being a messiah .

I think that after looking in the mirror, what he meant was Leper Messiah. I'm pretty sure Metallica would agree.

The entire transcript of what Obama said, for anyone who cares to quote him correctly.

Transcript: Former President Obama's speech at the University of Illinois

I posted the transcript in the original post. That’s where I found the quote

 

[Avatar4321]

Obama is correct ...

"All we need are decent, honest, hard-working people who are accountable and who have America’s best interests at heart.”

Sit around waiting for a second coming and we're gonna continue to get idiots like The Dumpster Fire.

So all we need are conservatives

 

[night_son]

The Great Obama has Crooked Donnie in his sights

He will link all 2018 Republicans to the Crook in Chief

Agreed. And then you will wake up. What a dream, huh?

 

[Care4all]

I think he means pols being a messiah .

That is precisely what he was saying, I listened live.... it was about politicians, not about Jesus....

You should not be waiting for a rock star/messiah type candidate to get you out to vote in November...(no bernie sanders type, or no barack obama type candidate) just get out and vote, regardless of not having a candidate that inspires you.... and vote Democratic, even if you don't agree with everything the candidate believes or stands for...!

Politically speaking, we the people have always been our own messiah. Somewhere along the path we waded through a muddy river of race and class warfare. We came out onto the opposite bank changed forever.

I do not need a homosexual Kenyan mulatto traitor to my country.

Sorry, Michelle and children. Your dad/husband is a traitor to the United States, and deserves to be hung by the neck until dead for being a traitor. That doesn't mean you did anything wrong, that means he did.

Class warfare has always been with us.

white and blacks folks, and brown and beige ones too, have had their views on race and politics turned topsy-turvy by Obama's presidency.

race fundamentally defines america and is a dividing line drawn in blood through america's moral map.

obama provoked great hope and fear about what a black presidency means to our nation. his biracial roots and black identiy are a beguiling draw but also a spur to belligerent reaction

Too bad Obama never said Benghazi is a conspiracy.

Slashed the safety net wherever it could, cast dozens of votes to take away health insurance from ordinary Americans, embraced wild conspiracy theories like those surrounding Benghazi or my birth certificate, rejected science, rejected facts on things like climate change, embraced a rising absolutism from a willingness to default on America’s debt by not paying our bills to a refusal to even meet much less consider a qualified nominee for the supreme court because he happened to be nominated by a Democratic president.

He had the opportunity to do good, but he chose to be a traitor.

Where's that "JV Team" these days. That were provided American weapons by somebody. Hmm?

Yes, I ask the hard questions.

He's a liar, and corrupt to the core. That said, I think all of them are corrupt at the higher levels.
