Opus 2018-012: Headlines: The Narcissism Continues

I have always assumed that President Obama would build a library.  That seems to be what ex-presidents do.  And he started out that way but according to the Washington Free Beacon he has had a change of plans.  Now instead of a presidential library he is going to build a “Presidential Center”.  It will “saddle local taxpayers with an estimated $100 million tab, and commandeer large swaths of beloved historic public parks for private development.”

In case you have not noticed, I can’t stand Obama.  It takes a special kind of misfit to replace Jimmy Carter at the bottom of the pile while claiming his awesomeness would stop the oceans from rising.  I would begrudge him a library.  It is what is done and although I have a low opinion of him he was still the president of the United States.  Maybe it is just my bias but “Presidential Center” sounds like it is either a center for all presidents or the location frequented by the serving president.  The title seems a bit narcissistic. 

It is equally humorous that the liberal professors are protesting the way he is taking over a large area of Chicago that had been designated as historic.  The article was a big vague on why it was historic but keep in mind that Chicago also thinks that banning guns has made the city a safe place to live.

Cartoons and posters have expressed the wish that Hillary would just go away.  I have the same feeling about Obama.

At least I am consistent.

    1. And they did it shortly after electing Clinton twice. Public education is working.

      Grace and peace.
