Ilhan Omar: Obama’s a “pretty face” who “got away with murder”

[Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Bodies for Biden]

If any Republican said this leftists here would call this racist and bigoted .


By the way it’s stunning that Democrats are choosing Omar over Obama and shows how far left extreme they are getting

Did you not bother to read the thread? It's all #fakenews, as I suspected from the first headline.

She said it word. for word.

Context. matters. You can clearly. see how. she was taken. out. of context. in order to generate. clicks and. circlejerks for her. haterz.

Green Line is trolling and Beep Boop is, well, beep-booping.

Nothing to see here folks, move along so we can get to the next Ilhan Omar thread.

I don't hate Omar.  That's only because Jesus commanded me to Love Your Enemies.  I'm not confused about the fact that she is my enemy.

If Pelosi can’t muster a powerful and unequivocal resolution condemning anti-Semitism, then Omar will have secured her political future and won a critical battle for the soul of the Democratic Party. At that point, the days when American Jews can live comfortably within the Democratic fold will be numbered.

Obama's foreign policy was undoubtedly his weak point but he was still a pretty good president.

Criticizing Obama's foreign policy is absolutely fair game. It was easily the worst part of his presidency, and a massive disappointment that he didn't depart from Bush-era policies. Saying he's not that different from Trump shows an inability to see nuance and an incredibly black-and-white way of looking at the world, which unfortunately seems to describe Omar pretty well. I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt, but she's been giving me every reason not to, lately.

LOL @ people who think Omar will lose because of this. This is Minneapolis, the voters are left wing and super progressive and probably share the same views about Israel that she does!! And about Obama!

I'm not sure if you noticed Obama's extremely high approvals with Democrats. I doubt that your average democrat is going to prefer Omar to Obama.

The Democrats are not Republicans. You're allowed to dislike and criticize major party figures choices without being ostracized. (Although Democrats and liberals certainly can and do argue with each other.) It's possible to approve of Obama and still think he made major missteps. (Having Trump to compare him with really helps in this regard.)

This is true. However, calling President Obama essentially a mass murderer and war criminal is a different kind of "criticism" that for many people crosses the line.

[Ban my account ffs!]

Obama was a giant disappointment but when you realize that life is just a giant disappointment, he wasn't so bad.  He brought good healthcare to a lot of people who didn't have it.

I've lost all respect for her.

These comments are not really that surprising. They come directly from the Jimmy Dore , Kyle Kulinski and some other hard core progressives. The fact is the Justice Democrats was founded by TYT so its not really much surprising Justice Democratic Representatives believe in this.


Then when you add in all the comments she has made over the years it becomes ever less surprising that she believes this .

Just so the tecord is straight, Jimmy Dore in the last 2 or 3 years has had MAJOR disagreenents with Justice Democrsts. Things are mostly amicable, but he's politically unique enough that he shouldn't be lumped in with TYT, Kulinski, Ring Of Fire, Rational National, etc.

Kyle Kulinski is basically Jimmy Dore, the only difference is Dore advocates voting third party while Kyle doesnt.

Other than that they are basically the same.

Despite being at about the same place as Kyle and other progressives on the political spectrum and also supporting Bernie's movement, Jimmy Dore is even moreso anti-establishment and anti-Obama and not nearly as anti-Trump. He will tear progressives to shreds on his show and leave them for dead if they take the establishment position on even one single issue or defemd Obama on nearly anything. He mocks liberals for harping on the "possibly / probably fake Russian collusion" stuff, though be may have begun to come aroumd to that just a bit recently.

He's basically a political purist, and has a hard time tolerating politicians who are wrong about some things but right about others. If he were an actual politician and not a pundit, he wouldn't be capable of working across party lines or compromising on legislation with the corporate / establishment democrats.

Most progressives WHEN ASKED will tell you that Obama did some messed up stuff that we hate, but we don't go out of our way to mention it constantly and crucify him 24/7 for it like Jimmy Dore does. Kulinski posted this video today because "how good/bad was Obama" is a current topic of discussion thanks to Ilhan Omar. Dore trash talked Obama this week, and last week, and the week before that, and the week before that, amd so on.

[Tender Branson]

Maybe Obama wasn't the picture-perfect Democratic President like she thinks she'd be, but at least Obama knew what it took to get elected: move to the center and not run as a leftist weirdo.

Omar would not even break 35% in a presidential election.

The more this antisemitic woman talks, the more damage she is doing to Democrats.

[Brittain33]

Comments like this and her defending Maduro's regime are why I stopped getting offended at whatever she says about Jews and Israel.

[Zaybay]

With all the threads about Omar, and how she's damaging the Democratic Party, I thought she would have more search results :

It seems to me that both Omar and AOC are under the impression that they are contestants in some kind of reality show.
Maybe someone ought to tell them to lay low and try to represent their constituents for a change.

This is sickening, I don't like Obama, but nothing he did was close to being tantamount to murder

It is clear that she should be censured by Congress for these ridiculous statements

Agree on the first part ( other than not liking Obama ), but respectfully disagree that she deserves censure rather than a hopefully successful primary challenge. Inane stupid hyperbole is not censure worthy. If it was, we'd be censuring multiple members of Congress per month.

Hey, on second thought you might be onto something...
