“Bring the revolution home, kill your parents.”
“It’s a front-row seat to history, no matter where you are,” the Obamas promised everyone coming to the opening of their grim towering $850 million Obama Presidential Center.But much like Barack Obama’s famously cynical slogan, “we are the ones we have been waiting for”, some had actual front row seats to the Obama post-history while others were out back.
Most of the three thousand or so people who flocked to serve as human props for the official opening of the massively ugly addition to the Chicago skyline were forced to squat in camp chairs on the dying grass of what remained of a once beloved neighborhood park, burning in the hot sun, while their betters, politicians and celebrities, watched the spectacle up close.
Media reporting spent a good deal of time spotting celebrities in the VIP section. There was a sprightly Tom Hanks in sunglasses, there was Oprah, on her fortieth diet, and girlfriend Gayle King, and there was Stephen Colbert, both of whose tenures at CBS had crashed and burned, and there was LA Mayor Karen Bass who had to return home after Los Angeles burned down again which seems to happen every time the politician with a 31% approval rating leaves town.
And then again there were the people who actually mattered, who had made Obama and the era of radicalism he brought into national politics, which has only intensified since, happen.
“Dig it!” the old woman in the third row of the Obama Presidential Center, had once gloated over the brutal murder of Sharon Tate by the Manson Family. “First they killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them. They even shoved a fork into the victim’s stomach! Wild!”
“Kill all the rich people,” the old man wearing the Communist ‘red star’ had defined his radical movement. “Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, Kill your parents.”
Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn (pictured above from 2009), the former terrorist leaders of the Weathermen and the Chicago power couple who spotted Obama and moved him up the political ladder getting third row seats to the opening of the Obama Presidential Center spoke more eloquently about what Obama represented than any of the hollow political speeches and media press releases.
“We want to find a way to turn toward each other again,” Barack Obama claimed, insisting that he stood for the traditional American values of ,“fairness and common sense and mutual respect.”
But what he actually stood for was sitting in the third row and wearing the Communist star. The same media that could see Nazi symbols at every conservative event (but somehow can’t process a Nazi SS tattoo when it’s worn by their senate nominee in Maine) didn’t even believe that Obama’s mentor getting a front row seat to the opening of his presidential center while wearing the symbol of a movement responsible for the mass murder of millions mattered.
Bill Ayers was pretty clear about what Obama represented. Far more than Obama will ever be.
“The people who tried to say that Obama palled around with terrorists, that he had Palestinian friends, that he had a black nationalist minister, none of that s___ worked,” Ayers told the one reporter who stopped him to chat. And it’s true.
Obama didn’t represent American values, but the destruction of American values.
Without Obama, Congress wouldn’t include a Somali mass murderer’s daughter and an open apologist for Islamic terrorism, and the next Congress wouldn’t likely include an associate of the World Trade Center bombing’s religious leader, Hisham ‘Adam’ Hamawy, or a woman who celebrated Oct 7, co-founded an organization that tweeted ‘Death to America’ and who bragged about wiping her hands on the American flag (courtesy of her political backer, Zohran Mamdani.)
None of this is about turning “towards each other again”, but Obama’s reconciliation shtick has always been phony. The same man who claimed, “There is not a black America and a white America and Latino America and Asian America; there’s the United States of America” once in power, built his political machine around racial grievance, urging minorities to “punish our enemies.”
In an ironic note, Barack Obama referenced that line again in his speech, decrying Republicans for supposedly seeing “some groups and some people as more equal than others and see government as nothing more than a way to divvy up the spoils and punish enemies.”
It’s always been the Obamas who are out to punish enemies, making a point of not inviting President Trump to the opening of their center, and then launching attacks at him anyway.
The resentment was never far from the surface. In her remarks, Michelle Obama ranting to her husband about conservatives who questioned “your birthright and your faith and your patriotism.” How could anyone possibly question the patriotism of a man who not only invited domestic terrorists to the inauguration of his presidential center, but gave them front row seats.
It wasn’t the suckers in the camp chairs on the lawn still pining for the vanished Obama charm in between ‘No Kings’ rallies and New York Times op-eds and Wordle puzzles who had the ‘front row seat to history’ promised by the Obama Presidential Center, but Ayers, whose alum had served two terms in the White House and whose other alum was the LA mayor.
Ayers had bragged about sending members of the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) to Cuba with the Venceremos Brigade. Former Rep. Karen Bass had gone to Cuba with the Venceremos Brigade. That Castroite connection had reportedly caused the Biden team to turn her down for the VP slot that eventually went to Kamala, but she still took over Los Angeles.
And now showed up to party with the Obamas and watch her city burn from a distance. --->READ MORE HERE
