Former President Barack Obama dialed back his planned 700-person birthday bash, set to take place this weekend, after sustained criticism for the large-scale gathering at a time when Democrats are telling ordinary Americans to hunker down or wear masks. But that’s just the tip of the hypocrisy iceberg.
Obama is using his birthday to raise funds for his planned “presidential center,”(Snip)Chicago, which has massive pension debt and an impoverished tax base, agreed to essentially give the land to the private group in the form of a 99-year “land use agreement” for a sum of $10. Epstein estimates the value of the land at $200 million.

Amazed that anyone believes this sheister about anything or is surprised at anything he does. A devotee of religion unto self.

I think I read it's where he wants to be buried, too. I also read, again not sure if it's true, that each party goer gave a $2500 'donation' to this fiasco because he's run out of other people's money to build it.

He is taking over a beautiful park in one of the nicer (and whiter) parts of the south side with his monstrous phallic-symbol monument to himself.

read Erik Larsen’s “Devil in the White City “ ( no not about smidgen rather true story of the World’s Fair held on that site ..and a murderer ..again not barry )
The importance of the Fair’s site is overlooked for the mosque like thing he wants

Once it’s built, I’m going to go back and see if I can splice it in to any old Tarzan or King Kong movies.

Why wouldn't Obama want it built in a poor, black neighborhood? It does not make sense. All the neighborhood schools could go there for class trips; could use library to write papers for high school and college; would add prestige/value to any neighborhood. Does not make sense.

I just drove thru a very affluent neighborhood outside of Boston where one sees any number of Black Lives Matter signs. Wonder what the residents of that town think about Obama's plans? Would they approve? More importantly, what does the BLM Movement think about this project?
So much hypocrisy; so little time.

How is it that he's still having to raise money for this crypt? I thought everyone loved him. What else is going on here? When you live off of ill-gotten gain, you lose it quickly. Why? Because you don't know how to manage money (we know he was broke), and when you don't gain wealth over a sustained amount of time, you blow it. The fake American hit the lottery when he was chosen as the front man for an eight-year presidency.
Ugghhhhh. . . How long, Lord?

Pharaoh-bama has decided where he wants his pyramid to stand for the ages. So let it be written; so let it be done.

Appropriately, America's first Stoner President is also the first former President not to build an actual Presidential LIBRARY.

His plans to build this abomination in this location are not new. So far those fighting it on legitimate grounds have failed to get a favorable ruling from a judge. Surprised? We also knew that fundraising for the hyperambitious project was flagging if not stopped dead. So, comes the 60th birthday and guess what? This article tells us that the Martha’s Vineyard birthday bash yesterday was a fundraiser for his library.
They never quit.

The locals sued (unsuccessfully, so far) to stop this thing from being built. Hussein is destroying a popular park in order to erect this salute to narcissism and the death cult of islam.

It will be on my "must see" list right behind Clinton's hanging out at the river "must see" in Little (very) Rock Arizona.

I just heard a timely remark, ''If hypocrisy were water, DC would drown.'' Iceberg tips melt, eventually.

Hussein is most arrogant of all of them. He was arrogant during the 8 years of destruction of our republic from stoking the flames of racism to suppling weapons to the likes of Speedy Gonzalez south of the border.
