President Obama gave the commencement speech for the 2020 high school seniors online. I tuned in for the whole thing because I thought it was worth watching. What I did not expect was to get all verklempt watching an intelligent, coherent, articulate government official speak to the people of America.
“Doing what feels good, what’s convenient, what’s easy — that’s how little kids think,” he said during a prime time special for high school seniors.
“Unfortunately, a lot of so-called grown-ups, including some with fancy titles and important jobs, still think that way — which is why things are so screwed up. I hope that instead, you decide to ground yourself in values that last, like honesty, hard work, responsibility, fairness, generosity, respect for others.”
BARACKOBAMA
Of course, you can only measure how effective his delivery was by the reaction of IMPOTUS or his minions. And it was glorious because Cheeto melted down -again- and talking heads on Faux News were crying over the whole thing. Mission accomplished, President Obama. It was refreshing and a big contrast having Obama on TV, offering a stark comparison between COVFEFE-19's sputtering, incoherent, bile-filled, off the cuff, third-grade-level rants and a level-headed, intelligent, compassionate, articulate message, like the one Obama gave.
Twitler and his enablers are really afraid of Obama and Biden, not only because in comparison Cheeto sounds and looks more and more wretched, but because when Obama or Biden speak directly to the people of America, there is no way to twist their words and by comparison, the Orange One sounds as deranged and sociopathic as he in fact may be.
So congrats to the 2020 high school seniors who just graduated. Hopefully, none of them reads this blog.
XOXO
P.S. My girl Chika got to perform for the kids.
Aslo, Megan Rapinoe FTW.

It’s truly amazing how polar opposite these two are. And Obama’s comment is spot in. The current occupant of the White House is infantile and filled with rage. He is impulsive and cannot be trusted to do what is right for the greater good. The entire repuglican party is in lock step. I would say they have sold their souls, but they don’t have any.
ReplyDeleteWe must ensure the repugs lose up and down the entire ballot in November. They flipped a house seat back to red in a California special election. We must get it back in November as well as a lot more and as many senate seats as possible.
Vote blue. Vote. Vote!
XOXO 👨❤️💋👨
The difference could not be more striking. Really. Cheeto really is just absolutely stupid.
DeleteIf people cannot grasp how abysmally bad IMPOTUS is, I don't think there's hope for this country.
XOXO
I find it funny, and sad and pathetic, that whenever a former president says anything about doing the right thing, being a decent human being, having compassion, that ____ automatically takes it as a slam against him.
ReplyDeleteProves that even HE knows what a complete fuckmonkey her is,
Oh, Nowadays (and probably from now on) people really can just say 'inept' or 'corrupt' or 'stupid' and the only person that comes up is Cheeto. When W is seen as slightly proficient at governing....
DeleteXOXO
Yes, from Obama to Trump America went from the best to the worst, that's for sure.
ReplyDeleteIt was devolution.
DeleteTotal and complete. But the trumpanzees don't see it. Neither do the racists.
XOXO
I miss REAL president obama. and REAL president hillary.
ReplyDeleteOh, absolutely.
DeleteI just can imagine the super-efficient response Hillary would have planned. Of course, if 200 people died, it would be BENGAZI all over again.
XOXO
Even if Obama didn't say a word, just smiled and waved at the camera, dumpy would have a complete meltdown because he knows that he can never measure up to Obama and that the only people who like dump are people even he would describe as losers.
ReplyDeleteOh, his Obama Envy is well known. He cannot take it.
DeleteYou know Trumpanzees only like Cheeto because he IS like them: ignorant, bigoted and a bully.
XOXO
I'll take it to ground zero. The only good trump is a dead one.
ReplyDeleteIt's appalling and embarrassing to watch him. He blows up over speeches and a message from Obama, Bush and Carter, since this is going on. Id take back any president in my lifetime in a heat beat.
Get the coffin ready. And no jail for him. 6 ft under suits him much better. I can forget, but never forgive. Some days, I wish we would go in by the thousands and just drag his ass and his family out of the white house. I'm not opposed to the French Revolution days dear.
Hahaha Maddie is out for blood.
DeleteBut I would love to see IMPOTUS in jail. Or on the run. That's why he's so desperate to get re-elected. He knows that if he's not the president jail is the only alternative. Same for his spawn.
XOXO
HEY!!!!!! I learned all I know from Game of Thrones... revenge, playing politics , and going out for blood. Enemies don't get the luxury of a cell or exile. Swift and quick.
DeleteI enjoyed the speech thoroughly. I got to stand about 20 feet away from when he came to Harrisburg. Amazing moment. He speaks profoundly well. At no time did he feel the need to say "really, really big."
ReplyDeleteOh, same. The Trumpanzees accuse Obama of 'reading' off a teleprompter. Cheeto cannot even do that. Or read from his notes. He can only say 'super duper'. He really cannot speak like an adult.
DeleteXOXO
We watched. It was pretty nice, actually. Better than I had expected. I want to find a clip of Obama's college speech.... coco
