Conservatives fire back at Obama, say he sowed the division that led to
Trump

Former President Barack Obama says the midterm elections in November
will give Americans the chance to — in his words — "restore some sanity
in our politics" by changing control of Congress. (Sept. 8) AP

Former President Barack Obama is on the campaign trail, stumping for
Democratic candidates in a midterm election in which he says our very
democracy is at stake. And many conservative politicians and pundits
were happy to get the chance to relive the Obama years and point to what
they perceive as his failures in office.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said in response to Obama's speech that,
"The more former President Obama speaks about the ‘good ol years’ of his
presidency, the more likely President Trump is to get re-elected."

Former Trump adviser Sebastian Gorka said Obama's "whole eight-year
presidency was an embarrassment when it comes to everything from the
economy to national security."

Several conservatives jumped on Obama's assertion that President Donald
Trump was brought to power by the forces in America that "keep us
divided and keep us angry and keep us cynical." They said it was Obama,
not Trump, who first used rhetoric to pit groups of Americans against
each other.

Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., sent a series of tweets outlining times he
felt Obama was guilty of using divisive language, including his infamous
2008 line where he accused "cynical" voters of clinging to "guns or
religion or antipathy toward people who aren’t like them."

Marco Rubio

@marcorubio
Pres. Obama is right. It is wrong for a President to use divisive
language, such as:
1. Call all opponents of same-sex marriage bigots
2. Call the Pro-Life movement a "War on Women"
3. Call all immigration enforcement advocates racists
4. Call the GOP the enemy of Hispanics

Marco Rubio

@marcorubio
Barack Obama on people left behind by new economy: “And it’s not
surprising then they get bitter,they cling to guns or religion or
antipathy toward people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment
or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”

Fox News host Jeanine Pirro derided Obama for a "full-throttled, savage
attack" on Trump. She particularly took issue with Obama's statement
that Trump has been "capitalizing" on America's historical resentments.

President Trump

"Are you kidding?" asked an incredulous Pirro. "If anyone has stoked
racial hatred and divisiveness, it's you," she said, citing Obama's
actions in the wake of the 2014 police shooting in Ferguson, Missouri,
that helped spark the Black Lives Matter movement.

"The only reason that we have an outsider, businessman president is
because of you, your lies, your policies and your divisiveness," Pirro
said. "You, Barack, you elected Donald Trump."

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie also took issue with Obama's
attempt to blame America's divisions on Trump, calling it "richly
ironic" for him to refer to Trump as a "symptom" of the divide.

"He was the president for the eight years when the cause was being
created," Christie said on "ABC This Week" on Sunday. "But the president
acts like he's detached from this, that somehow he was a dispassionate
observer during the eight years beforehand."

Former Fox News host Bill O'Reilly slammed Obama for violating the
unwritten code of former presidents not publicly criticizing their
predecessors. But O'Reilly said Obama's appearances will be good news
for Trump and the Republicans because it reminds voters of two things:
that Obama's "economic policies harmed many Americans" and that
"evidence points to powerful people within the Obama administration
misusing the FBI and federal judges to illegally surveil the Trump
campaign."

In his speech Friday, Obama told the crowd that "when you hear how great
the economy's doing right now," it is important to "remember when this
recovery started."

Stephen Moore, who served as economic adviser to Trump during the
campaign, called it "preposterous" for Obama to take credit for the
booming economy. Moore said the economy was slowing down dramatically at
the end of Obama's second term and that the current growth started as "a
result of the fact that Obama and Clinton were not going to be office
anymore."

Fox Business host Stuart Varney called it a "stretch" for Obama to take
credit for the economy.

"Today's stellar 4 percent growth is clearly the result of tax cuts and
deregulation. That's Trump, it's not Obama," said Varney.


Conservative Eric Bolling tweeted that it is "disgraceful" to see Obama
taking credit for Trump's successes.

Score So Far-

TRUMP:
-Unemployment Rate
-GDP
-Wage Growth
-# Blacks Employed
-# Hispanics Employed
-# Women Employed
-ISIS Wins
-Homegrown Terror Events

OBAMA:
-Slick Speaking
-School Shootings


But Democrats like their chances heading into November, and many are
happy to embrace Obama's message.

Mike Levin, who is running for the seat left open by retiring GOP Rep.
Darrell Issa in California, tweeted that Obama "left Trump an economy on
third base. Trump thinks he hit a triple."


“I think President Obama is a powerful reminder of what a presidential
leader looks like, and that’s a contrast to Donald Trump,” Katie Porter,
who is running to unseat California Republican Rep. Mimi Walters, told
Politico.

But some, like Andrew Janz, who is trying to topple incumbent California
Republican Rep. Devin Nunes, are keeping more of a cautious distance.

"I’m going to run my own race," Janz told Politico. "I am really focused
on making sure that the voters of my district know that I am not
somebody that is going to be controlled by the national party."

Ah, yes, it MUST have been Obama - couldn't have been the propaganda pushed
out 24/7 by FAUX NUZ and other right-wing blatherers.

You are truly delusional, if you think "propaganda pushed
out 24/7 by FAUX NUZ" caused the Democrats to lose control
of the House in 2010, the Senate in 2014, and the POTUS
in 2016.

The voters decided the Democrats were not addressing
the problems that they saw.

They have no interest in that. As soon as blacks achieve middle class
they are less likely to vote Democrat. It takes a free market:

They got you buffaloed. They will not leave, and if they did we would no
longer have to support them - they are (figuratively) eating us out of
house and home. After WWII we taxed them, and those taxes build us as a
superpower. Now we don't tax them and the country is deteriorating.

Which is far, far less than the amount of income they end up getting
(having redistributed to them). So they pay a far lower percent of
income tax than most of us.

That would mean that they aren't paying more than their fair share.

No one paid that tax and when JFK lowered it tax revenues increased -
like the did for 2018 after the Trump tax cuts. We'll have more revenues
next year as well.

They will always be able to shelter their money. The alternatives are to
give them the opportunity to reinvest in the American economy or invest
somewhere else.

3.9% unemployment currently.

You said the 21% of our total federal income tax receipts is, "far less
than the amount of income they end up getting (having redistributed to
them)". If this were true and they left there would be more everyone tax
money to spend on the rest of us.

Of course this is not true, but you are an idiot. I don't think your
meds will help that but it wouldn't hurt.

There is no income redistributed to top 1%. Even Eleanor Roosevelt
knew that.

You have no idea how economics works, do you? After WWII the rich
reinvested because they otherwise would have had to pay taxes - high taxes
made them reinvest. Low taxes means they don't have to reinvest and can
just spend it or let it sit in a vault like Scrooge McDuck.

So you are willing to bribe them to stay here, even if bribing them
causes you harm. Fair enough: this is a part of your worship I have
talked about.

I prefer to do things based more on logic and reason and not worship or
damnation of any group.

If we used reason and helped those in need and did NOT help those not in
need then we would be better off. I mean, sure, for EVERYONE there would
be roads and parks and libraries and infrastructure and the like, but
why "invest" in the wealthy when you know you only get back something
like 70 cents on the dollar? It is an idiotic way of handling things.

Not very well. We are being beaten in tech (at least in many areas),
manufacturing, space, energy, health care, and so much more. I am saying
we should work to compete better.

It has been getting worse under both parties... but historically, at
least since WWII the economy does better under Democrats. This is true
for the legislative and the executive branches.

Great, they just recently did what we did way back in 1966.....

You have repeatedly shown conservationism, a condition that overlaps

As I said, the Chinese and Russians are giving us a run for our money in
terms of pushing the technology. We, in the US, have just rolled over on
this. We went to the moon in the late '60s and '70s and then just...
stopped (largely). No more moon trips. No more pushing to Mars. And we
have a large part of the country which deeply ignorant on basic science
questions.

Heck, what do YOU think is the center of the solar system? Without doing
research I doubt you even know, nor do you likely know why this type of
understanding is important to understanding modern findings.

Heck, can you even describe where -- visually -- the standard deviation
is on standard bell curve? This is more math than science, but it
overlaps and is so trivial a grade school student can understand it...
but most adults in this country have no clue.

Once again, if Max is to be consistent he would be jumping in and noting
your snipping of content and then posting attacks is clearly and
unambiguously "trolling". He will not.

Remember: my focus here is a simple one -- I support evidence based
policies AND the research that helps us to be able to do that. I have no
sympathy for those of you who reject research because you fear the
results will not back your biases.

My view: if the results do not back whatever biases I have then I should
change my view. Now this does not mean to change your view back and
forth and blindly trust any one study, or even any one group of
researches. Trust in the peer-review and scientific process and know
that our best knowledge comes from it.

I proved you wrong.
You started babbling about Max.

Liberals are going to want to be protected when they go to Mars.
They're not knows for personal responsibility, you know.

And-- while Trump SUGGESTED the creation of a Space Force, we do not
have a Space Force, therefore you are--once again-- lying when you
claim Trump "gave us a new wing of the military."

And-- Trump did not "promise us Mars." Everybody knows we'll
eventually get to Mars, because we're the USA, and it's the kind of
thing we do.

...stuff where you engage in your usual trollish behavior, trying to

Why don't you just admit that you lied, that I caught you, and move
