Shut Up And Eat Your Beans and Corn

Well, it’s official: Barack Hussein Obama is back on the campaign trail, as evidenced by his speech yesterday at the University of Illinois. Opening line:

“It is good to be home. It’s good to see corn, beans. I was trying to explain to somebody as we were flying in, that's corn. That's beans, they were very impressed at my agricultural knowledge.”

It would indeed be good to have Obama back in Illinois where he belongs. But trust me, he doesn’t know beans about corn, or most any thing else that fuels the economy of the greatest nation on earth.

The most divisive president in U.S. history took to the microphone to chastise President Trump for being, well, the most divisive president in U.S. history. He accused him and his followers of pushing back against all things right and just that he, Barack Hussein Obama, put in place:

Progress doesn’t just move in a straight line. There’s a reason why progress hasn’t been easy and why throughout our history every two steps forward seems to sometimes produce one step back.

He’s got it backwards though, he was the step back, we are the 2 steps forward.

Each time we painstakingly pull ourselves closer to our founding ideals…

- if I may point out, the “founding ideals” that anyone committed to “fundamentally changing” is clearly not committed to… -

that all of us are created equal, endowed by our creator with certain inalienable rights, the ideals that say every child should have opportunity, and every man and woman in this country who’s willing to work hard should be able to find a job and support their family and pursue their small piece of the American dream. Ideals that say we have a collective responsibility to care for the sick and the infirm. And we have a responsibility to conserve the amazing bounty, the resources of this country and of this planet for future generations.

Assuming that he and his cohorts actually believe any of that, it’s clear that they don’t see any of the above as the personal responsibility of citizens but rather the obligation of the government (which they, the enlightened, will control and maintain). Forget free will. Forget freedom. Daddy will tell you what you must do…and then they lecture us on the evils of “patriarchy.”

After referencing himself over 100 times, taking credit for Trump’s burgeoning economy, accusing Trump supporters of practicing the politics of division and resentment, and of being paranoid

Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean you’re paranoid enough

he reminded us that these are “dangerous times.” I wonder how that happened?

And then Barry, who said he was “intent on following a wise American tradition of ex-presidents gracefully exiting the political stage and making room for new voices and new ideas” explained that he changed his mind and will now be the leader of The Resistance. He will make the ultimate sacrifice, for you. He will be back front and center, telling you what you need to think about everything, for as long as needed and by any means necessary. So thanks for the warning.

I can go no further down the rabbit hole at this time. But clearly, with Obama back on the campaign trail telling the media which fake news story to pursue each day I’m going to need to consider reinstating “The Rabbit Hole Report” a former recurring feature of MOTUS A.D. premised on the conceit that Donald J. Trump actually lost the 2016 election to Hillary Rodham Clinton and thereby offering an alternate reality which provides temporary succor and comfort to #Democrats, #Progressives, #BernieBros, #RINOs and #NeverTrumpers. 

“I’m glad you asked me that. Allow me to elaborate.”

Things just continue to get curiouser and curiouser.

“Sometimes you just have to shut up and eat your black beans and corn.”
