Ken Blackwell scores again with this post addressed to Barack Hussein Obama, the great mistake.
Barack Obama, you had a historic opportunity. You could’ve been the first Black president who truly united this country. You could’ve proved that America’s founding principles work for everyone. But instead of rising to that moment, you chose self-interest over statesmanship. And you left this country more divided, more bitter, and more distrustful than when you found it.
Let’s cut through the spin: You didn’t lead. You conned your way through.
You built a political brand on “hope and change” but what you delivered was corruption, cover-ups, and chaos.
You let the IRS target conservatives. You let the ATF run guns to Mexican drug cartels. You lied to the American people about Benghazi while Americans died. You stood by as veterans were left to die on waiting lists. And you called that leadership?
You gave us Obamacare, a healthcare law built on lies, jammed through on false promises like “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.” That was Politifact’s Lie of the Year, and it didn’t stop you from repeating it over and over again.
And while you smiled for the cameras, your administration quietly laid the groundwork for one of the worst political abuses of power in American history: Russiagate.
You knew what was going on. You were briefed. Your top officials used a Clinton-funded dossier—filled with garbage and unverified claims—to launch Crossfire Hurricane. They misled the FISA court. They spied on a presidential campaign. They unmasked Trump officials. And they tried to sabotage a duly elected president.
You want to talk about defending democracy? You tried to rig it.
You handed cash to Iran—actual pallets of cash—while pretending it was diplomacy. You “reset” with Russia while they prepared to take Crimea. You drew a “red line” in Syria and then erased it. And let’s not forget: you told Putin’s guy on a hot mic you’d have “more flexibility” after the election.
Flexibility for what, exactly?
You divided this country with identity politics and grievance theater. You undermined law enforcement while elevating radical voices. You told people who disagreed with you that they were on “the wrong side of history” - as if you were history’s author.
But history will judge you. And it won’t be kind.
You had the world’s stage, and you used it to divide. You were supposed to prove that America’s greatness isn’t skin deep. Instead, you used your skin color as a shield against criticism and a sword against anyone who challenged you. That wasn’t courage. That was manipulation.
You weren’t transformational. You were transactional. And the bill has come due.
You didn’t build trust. You exploited it. You didn’t unite us. You fractured us.
You could’ve gone down as one of America’s proudest moments. But you chose to become one of its biggest mistakes.
History won’t forget. You deserve to be indicted! |
