Inversion of Logic is Obama's Excuse For Loss of Democrat Power.
"President Obama has searched high and, increasingly, low, for the reasons he and Hillary Clinton lost the election. He has blamed Fox News, insufficient grass-roots campaigning by Hillary, “fake news”, and now has singled out Russian meddling for the loss of 194 of 207 counties that voted for him in either 2008 or 2012.Let's see. With all of the MSM focused on Donald Trump while aligning themselves overtly with Hillary, the actual vetting of Hillary was a vacuum. The Wikileaks revelations - hacked by whoever - was the sole access to the truth about Hillary, the Democrats, and the sycophantic MSM.
The suggestion is that Vladimir Putin wanted Trump to win; the liberal media has hinted darkly that the president-elect and his campaign team have “ties” to the Russian head of state.
As most Americans review Trump’s defense and security picks, the notion that the new administration will go easy on our adversaries – including Russia – is laughable. Retired General James Mattis, whom Trump has nominated to head Defense, has described Russia’s annexation of Crimea as a “severe” threat, one underestimated by the Obama White House. Mattis is not to be trifled with."
Obama doesn't refer to the fact that the Wikileaks revelations provided rational balance to the information content available to voters. For Obama, that is bad, evil even. The progress of the Progressives has been stymied, and even revealed for what it is: common corruption. All due to pulling back the curtain.
Everything that Obama does in this last month will be his last, futile attempt to regain the appearance of validity of Progressive's moral imperatives and to strut the moral self-righteousness of HISOWNSELF in the media, a prerogative that he is rapidly losing.
It's interesting that after two elections as president, Obama still claims racism. He doesn't admit that racism is what got him elected, as Americans attempted to overcome prejudice, and voted black, for an unvetted, unknown, opaque man with impeccably creased pants. It's unfortunate that the first black president and the first female presidential candidate were such tokens, such flawed and corrupt intellects, such radical anti-Americans. Of all the blacks and females in the USA, these two were the representatives of the Democrat Party of Corruption and Hatred.
Even at the end, Obama fumes at the existence of public information revealing the undeniable underlying corruption which consumes and defines the Democrats and Leftists, including the MSM. Anger at the existence of the availability to the public of undeniable truth is an inversion of the logic of freedom. The Left will not ever relinquish that logical inversion, because that is what defines them.

A Simple Computer Algorithm Could Write This Script For Race Riot Support
Fomenting the race war is what the Democrat Party does. It always has; it always will.
Lynch to Dallas protesters: ‘Do not be discouraged’
Attorney General Loretta Lynch on Friday encouraged protesters not to allow the “heinous violence” that occurred in Dallas to silence their “important” voices.
Hillary Clinton Blames Whites, Cops for Deaths of Young Black Men
Hillary Clinton used a CNN interview on Friday to completely embrace the Democrats’ claim that white people and cops must change to help reduce the number of African-Americans killed in tense exchanges with cops.
“I will call for white people, like myself, to put ourselves in the shoes of those African-American families who fear every time their children go somewhere, who have to have ‘The Talk,’ about, you now, how to really protect themselves [from police], when they’re the ones who should be expecting protection from encounters with police,” Clinton told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer.
Obama Pushes More Federal Oversight of Cops After Dallas Attack on Cops
President Barack Obama is harnessing the increasing attacks on police — and the periodic shootings of people by stressed cops — to push his agenda to federalize state and local police forces.
“I want to start moving on constructive actions that are actually going to make a difference,” he said during his evening press conference in Poland when he was asked about the Dallas attack.
Those actions, he said, would be based on the recommendations of the panel that he picked after the 2014 street riots in Ferguson, Missouri. The panel offered “practical concrete solutions that can reduce — if not eliminate — the problems of racial bias,” Obama said.
The dramatic shootings are an opportunity to push that agenda, Obama said. “If my voice has been true and positive, my hope would be that… [the panel] surfaces problems, it frames them, it allows us to wrestle with these issue and try to come up with practical solutions,” he said.

Top Down Racism
Obama: Not Renting to Criminals is RacistLet's correct that statement:
The Obama administration released a warning Monday telling the nation’s landlords that it may be discriminatory for them to refuse to rent to those with criminal records.
The Fair Housing Act doesn’t include criminals as a protected class, but the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) says refusing to rent based on a criminal record is a form of racial discrimination, due to racial imbalances in the U.S. justice system.
...refusing to rent based on a criminal record is a form of [common sense], [due primarily due to the lack of reform due to incarceration and the increased likelihood of future criminal behavior, not to mention] the [criminal] imbalances in the U.S. [racial subculture].There.
Now. That is being helped by attacking police, who respond by not enforcing laws in racial subculture zones (e.g. Baltimore, NYC). That is designed to decrease the numbers of racial minorities in prison to give the impression of Egalitarianism. But it is not egalitarian for either the victimized residence of the racial subculture zones (violent, anarchic ghettos) or for landlords. But those categories don't matter. Landlords especially are Oppressor Class (they expect to be paid). And the victimized residents of racial subculture zones expect police protection (again Oppressor Class).
The Marxist three-class Class War has generated revolutions which were quite bloody and which resulted in the total repression of entire populations, not to mention entire populations eradicated as "oppressors" of one type or another. That is the main lesson of the 20th century - which apparently is entirely lost on the Left and the maleducated millennials who flock to the social-communist, Bernie Sanders, as their savior. Today's Brownshirts likely have never even heard of Brownshirts.

It's Simple: Increased Racism is Due to Racists With Power.
Obama and Holder are directly responsible for the race riots. They immediately cried "racism" and effectively went silent when the facts were otherwise. Obama's son-he-never-had was a strong-arm robber and a thug intent on murdering an officer with his own gun. But the narrative wasn't stopped: "hands up! Don't shoot!"; "black lives [only] matter!". The causal chain goes straight to the highest offices in the land, and two racist Democrats.
Holder’s Hatchet Job
Another look at the Justice Department’s misguided Ferguson report, which caps the former attorney general’s legacy of racial divisiveness
"One lesson should have been driven home from the shooting of Michael Brown by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson in August 2014: racial interpretations of complex events are dangerous. The media and Eric Holder’s Justice Department initially cast Wilson as a racist who shot an innocent black youth. They were, as we now know, flat wrong. Not only did a state grand jury decline to prosecute Wilson last fall, but the Justice Department itself backtracked and recommended against federal prosecution. The evidence confirmed that Wilson acted in self-defense and didn’t provide a whiff of support for allegations of anti-black bias.
Nevertheless, it bears recalling that the racial narrative did serious damage. It sowed mistrust of police around the nation, especially among African-Americans. The antipolice protests and the shootings of police officers, in Brooklyn last year, in Ferguson this year, and most recently in Houston, were byproducts of the poisoned atmosphere created by the campaign against allegedly racist law enforcement. Perhaps unsurprisingly, shooting deaths of law enforcers spiked 52 percent in 2014, declining in 2015 as tensions eased. (Forty-seven on-duty officers died from intentional gunfire in 2014, compared with 31 the previous year. Twenty-four died as of the end of August 2015, which at the same rate would result in 36 deaths for the year.)"

Roger Simon: Racism and the Left
90% of the Racism in America Comes from the Democratic Party and the LeftRacism and its effluent - discord, poverty, hatred, institutionalized Victimhood, Messiahism, and constant Othering - all are to the distinct advantage of the western Left. Normal people have nothing to gain from these things, and wish to have nothing to do with them. The Left needs them, must have them, feeds solely on them. Without them, the Left are nothing. Nothing at all. They actually have no other desires except the further Messiahist craving to return Goddess Gaia to her pre-Anthropocene utopia (add eugenics to the list above).
My conclusion is inescapable. Here's why...
"Ninety percent of the racism in America today comes from the Democratic Party and the Left. They live off it and exploit it. It is unconscionable to the degree they do this, ruining the lives and futures of the very people they say they are helping in the process.
I am uniquely positioned to say this because I spent most of my life on the Left and was a civil rights worker in the South in my early twenties. I was also, to my everlasting regret, a donor to the Black Panther Party in the seventies.
So I have seen this personally from both sides and my conclusion is inescapable. The Left is far, far worse. They are obsessed with race in a manner that does not allow them to see straight. Further, they project racism onto others continually, exacerbating situations, which in most instances weren’t even there in the first place. From Al Sharpton to Hillary Clinton, they all do it."
"Barack Obama is one of the worst offenders in this regard. Recently, in reaction to the horrid actions of the deranged, but solitary racist Dylann Root, the president claimed racism is in our DNA.Never forget that the very first day as president, Barack Obama cancelled the program which allowed exceptional black DC children to go to the best schools, and thereby escape their stultifying neighborhood day prisons. Had a white president done that, DC would still be smoldering cinders, edge to edge.
How could he possibly utter such nonsense and who was he talking about? The majority of Americans are from families that came to this country after slavery existed. Many of those were escaping oppression of their own. In my case my family was fleeing the pogroms of Eastern Europe. Many of the members of my family who stayed behind ended up gassed in Auschwitz or exterminated in Treblinka.
Is Obama telling me that racism is in my DNA? What a wretched and insulting statement. If he means that, he should tell it to me face-to-face.
If he does, I will tell him what I think. The racial situation in this country has gotten decidedly worse since he took office. And he is a great deal to blame. Ever since the beer summit it was obvious he was disingenuous and harmful on the subject of race, seeking to stir the pot when it was actually empty or nearly. His claim that if he had had a son he would look like Travyon Martin was ridiculous and self-serving in the extreme. Barack Obama is a product of the fanciest private school in Hawaii and his children go to Sidwell Friends, the fanciest school in D. C."

Culture of Racism at the Top
From Instapundit:
"ERICK ERICKSON: If Only President Obama Weren’t Black.Actually, I think they know it's not racism; racism is just their "moral" weaponization for silencing the Other.
'It must be comfortable and convenient for President Obama to assume the opposition to him is because of his race. He can negotiate a bad deal with Iran and conclude the public hates it because he is black. He can tell people they can keep their doctors then take their doctors away from them and console himself that the anger of the public is just racist. He can see a solid position in Iraq and Afghanistan squandered as ISIS overruns us and, when people point it out, conclude it’s just because of his skin color. People can drop out of the workforce because they can’t find jobs and when their stomachs rumble and their mouths grumble, President Obama can look himself in the mirror and think it’d all be different if he were not a black man.
If only President Obama weren’t black, maybe he would realize that people don’t dislike him because he is black, they dislike him because he is a self-absorbed ass.'
If he weren’t black, he never would have been elected, of course. That’s the only reason people voted for him. And even that didn’t work out as hoped."
