CALL IT WHAT IT IS. THE HATRED FOR OBAMA IS ABOUT RACE.
Episode notes
The Obama Presidential Center opened in Chicago on Juneteenth. Every living president came to honor him — except the current one, who couldn't attend. And Colbert wore a tan suit, mocking the 2014 "scandal" when Obama wore one to a press conference.
So let's call it what it is. This isn't blind defense — this show has no loyalty card. The ACA wasn't enough. The bank bailout protected Wall Street over homeowners. The drone program killed civilians. Those receipts are real.
But there's a gap between Obama's scandal-light record and the unhinged, decade-long hatred aimed at him. You can criticize a president without believing he was born in Kenya. Look at what they manufactured to rage about: a tan suit, dijon mustard, a birth certificate, "you lie" shouted in Congress. They call him divisive while running the most divisive operation in modern memory — that's projection. And he left office around 59% approval and they got more obsessed, not less.
The Iran comparison makes the lie provable: Obama got zero American military deaths and uranium capped at 3.67%. The current handling: thirteen Americans dead, $25 billion, gas at $4.30, uranium at 60%. You can't have an opinion about whether thirteen Americans died.
I can't read a heart. But I can read a pattern. And the most economical explanation for a decade of rage over a tan suit is the one they spent a decade camouflaging. Call it what it is.
