I know it's too much to hope for...

...but the next time I see this guy's name, I wish it would be on a tombstone (and I'm not talking about the late John Lewis): "Former president Barack Obama fanned the flames of racial resentment in his politicized eulogy for the late Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) at his funeral in Atlanta, Georgia, Thursday afternoon, comparing law enforcement officers and President Trump to racist Democrats Bull Connor and George Wallace."

Is inciting a riot still a crime? How about calling for widespread anarchic violence, can you prosecute that? Maybe these things can't, or won't, be prosecuted, but they can be defended against, and agitators like Barack Obama are definitely going to wind up with blood on their hands for encouraging their hordes of neurotic, immature, half-baked revolutionary followers into harm's way.

Fanning the flames of racial resentment is what Barack Obama does. He's the scorpion and we're the frog.

I wish people wouldn't call his hate-filled diatribe a "eulogy."
We should call it a 'wellstone".
"Former president Barack Obama fanned the flames of racial resentment in his wellstone..."

Although, considering John Lewis, maybe it's the eulogy he would have wanted.

Such a disappointment. I really expected better from Mister "The Police Acted Stupidly."

V,

We should call it a 'wellstone".

His wasn't the first "Do it for PAAAUL! since the embarrassing original, and won't be the last.

If the death of every high-profile Democrat politician is to be turned into a "Wellstone", then I'm willing to stomach scores of them in short order.

Wellstone - some aerial acrobatics?
Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's son Sanjay was a neofascist brat who died showing off his acrobatic skills to his mum in a new plane he'd just bought. 'His greatest contribution to history was his flying skills' as my old Prof used to say.
