Lightworker’s Temple Comes with a Hefty Price Tag

February 20, 2017 by V the K

The Barack Obama Temple of Light and Wonder Presidential Library is slated to cost a cool $1.5 Billion.

I’m not entirely kidding about it being a temple. The complex will feature “a museum about the lives of Barack and Michelle Obama.” Presumably, this will feature round-the-clock showings of Hollywood’s ‘Southside with you’ Obama-love date movie, and perhaps choirs of children singing hymns to the Lightworker. It will be a bit like that episode of ‘Futurama’ where Bender forces slaves to build a massive tomb for him; except I think Obama’s ego is bigger. And the adoration of his media cult continues unabated. Perhaps, there will be an Adoration Chamber, where members of the media can gather to sit on bended knee to chant “Yes, we can” and “Hope and Change” continuously; as they did for the entire eight years of his presidency.

But at least they can save money on the room where his college records would have been displayed.

    I hope there is a display for his birth certificates, both short and long forms.

    But what about his college applications and transcripts that are still locked-away out of the public view?

    I wonder why Trump made the birth certificate a higher priority.

    Let’s see, shall we go after something we already know is a fact and feed the fantasy that people believe he actually wasn’t born in the U.S. (even though he was born to a U.S. citizen, which would give him citizenship anyway, like Ted “Where’s His Birth Certificate … Oh Wait, We Don’t Care Because He’s White” Cruz)? Or, shall we could go after something that *might* reveal something *new* and concrete (i.e. maybe the president not being as smart as he’s being made out to be or took out student loans as a foreign exchange student).

    Yeah, those childrens’ choirs have been going non-stop since 2008:

    I’m sure $1.5 billion is a conservative estimate. You know there will be premium wages paid, huge cost overruns, lots of changes made to existing plans and people paid to be standing around. This is a Democrat endeavor, after all. And given the explosion in our national deficit under his Presidency and his unfettered narcissism, the sky is the limit. Not just any Greek temple will do. I’m sure a life-sized replica of the stadium with the styrofoam columns will be created as well as a replica of his Oval Office, Air Force 1 and White House gym. Plus there will be a lot of property needed for his 5 star golf course…

    Because the Democrat-Media Complex focused on “birthers” in order to broadly discredit all criticism and opposition to the Light Worker.

    Also because the campaign thought they could be cute and release a computer printout of his birth certificate (“short form”) and thought that would take care of the issue while throwing a bit of shade towards the Birthers. They were counting on low-info voters (and even many in the intelligentsia) to not realize the difference between documents and to just take him at his word (big mistake with any elected official; worse for a narcissist).

    BHO & Company could have quelled 75% of the Birther Movement by just releasing the long form birth certificate in the first place. But they didn’t because they thought not doing so could actually work in their favor. In a sense, it worked out for them just fine because we still don’t know what courses he took in higher education or what grades he received. That, I suspect, was a secondary goal in the first place.

    From the other side of the coin, constantly haranguing about valid citizenship after election to the office was a dumb move. Almost as dumb as those campaign donors who gave beaucoup amounts to one of San Fran Nan’s perpetual sacrificial lambs in her reelection campaign a few years ago in an attempt to unseat her.

    the 1.2 billion is for an endowment to maintain the building for a number of years.
    the building only costs about 200 million……..lol

    Oh, it’s the media’s fault. The whole birther movement was #FakeNews. Donald Trump never participated in that either.

    BHO & Company could have quelled …

    Ah, I see. It was partly Obama’s fault.

    It was a dumb move period on the part of the birthers. And Trump was complicit in the idiocy.

    Of course it was. If someone makes a claim, and you can rebut it, you do so. If it’s big enough, you rebut it in a way so that there is no question as to what your position is and in a way that any further claim looks unbelievable. His campaign didn’t do that. They actually liked the Birtherism campaign because it rallied their base who perceived it as ridiculous, unfair, and oh yeah, raaaaaaacist—just as I suspect you do. It diverted attention from some of the more legitimate questions (educational records). And it created sympathy for a narcissistic empty suit who won the popular vote, but only about 20% of the counties/parishes in the US. It was a winning strategy until they couldn’t ride the wave any further and were forced to deal with the matter in a way in which they should have done so in the first place. TL;DR: his campaign put politics ahead of promulgating the truth. Precisely the way his administration operated for eight years.

    It was a dumb move period on the part of the birthers. And Trump was complicit in the idiocy.

    You’re right. They should have focused on the college transcripts which should have bolstered the contention of the brightest, smartest, bestest guy ever to run for the office of President Of The United States. Instead, That Guy wouldn’t release his records to shore up the claims and one of his first official acts as POTUS was to seal all his educational records. To use the war chants of those who are hot and bothered about the failure of Donald Trump’s tax returns to be leaked to the well-deserving American public: what is he hiding?

    BHO would have been just as awful if he’d been born, in front of unimpeachable witnesses, in Wichita.

    Will lefties be required to make the Haj to Chicago once the monument is done? Will worshipers exit through the gift shop?

    Yup.

    May I speak of the optics here, RSG? I thought they were unfortunate. I mean, it never died. Yes, the camp of Obama’s first main opponent Hillary was complicit for starting it (she’s no saint) and the media was complicit in helping it continue being a thing. But it was Trump who kept it going and going was, yes, the most troubling to watch. He became the voice of the movement. And the optics, whether one wants to admit them or not, were: white man born into wealth feeding the paranoia of millions of people who believed a black man (or “half black” man, who, regardless, looked like a black man) is lying about being born in the U.S. when he actually wasn’t (and he’s a Mooooosssssslliiiimmmmmm).

    Obama was born in Hawaii in 1961 to an American mother. Not only was he U.S. by birthplace, but he had American birthright through his mother (which, technically, should have nipped this in the bud, not producing the long-form birth certificate). And, then you have Ted Cruz, on the other hand, who was born to an American mother, like Obama, but in a foreign country, unlike Obama. Cruz was still an American. Obviously. Yet, not one f*cking peep out of the birthers, or enough to catch fire anyway.

    That doesn’t mean I believe that every person who voted for McCain, Romney, and/or Trump are racist. Not by a long-shot.

    But, I think we can be gentleman about this and just agree to disagree on the optics of the Birther Movement. We can do that, yes? Is it okay that I hold my opinion that this situation wasn’t devoid of exploiting racism? And you can hold yours that it was. We can do that, yes?

    *Keeping in mind that even without the media, Trump had millions of Twitter followers already and built his base while fueling the beliefs of the Birther Movement.
