Yes. It’s true. Barack Obama—who, less than one year into his presidency and with no discernible achievements other than being elected the first biracial president, was awarded a Participation Troph…er, Nobel Peace Prize—will receive yet another award for his, uh, tireless efforts to bring about peace:

There’s that “hope” word again. But all we got was this stupid t-shirt. And a mountain of debt.
The former president was named a Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope laureate Monday. The award honors those who “work toward a more just and peaceful world.” The RFK nonprofit tweeted that it is “honored to present Barack Obama” with the award.
He’ll receive his shiny new award in December, just in time for Christmas, er, the Holidays.
Bobby Kennedy was one of my heroes. He was someone who showed us the power of acting on our ideals, the idea that any of us can be one of the “million different centers of energy and daring” that ultimately combine to change the world for the better. https://t.co/nAiPiGercs

Except he didn’t. In fact, the opposite is true.
So in case you needed any reminders, here are five reasons former President Obama—that never gets old!—should have both of his unearned peace endowments melted down into a nice urn:
1. Handing Over Literal Pallets of Cash to Iran
In the most bone-headed, Neville Chamberlain-esque action of his presidency—rivaling only the trade of five senior Taliban leaders for a lowly deserter—Obama handed over $400 million in cash to the world’s preeminent backer of terror worldwide: Iran. With another $1.3 billion delivered later. And while he and members of his admin continue to deny it, it still looks like from where I’m sitting ransom for the release of four American citizens. Any guesses what they did with all that money?
2. Allowing the Rise of ISIS
Despite warnings from George W. Bush, Captain Drone went full-steam-ahead and pulled every one of our troops from Iraq, creating a vacuum that would be filled by the likes of ISIS. Their rapid expansion, and slaughter of innocents, was virtually ignored by Obama. And it left tens of thousands, if not more, dead in the region, as well as around the world, and millions more fleeing ISIS’ cancerous growth throughout the Middle East and beyond. And let’s not forget the most-recent revelation that his administration knowingly funded an Al Qaeda-linked organization. Most Scandal-Free Admin Ever™, my tuckus.

3. Ignoring Russia, China, and North Korea
We all remember by now that infamous hot-mic oopsie where then-President Obama promised Russia more flexibility following his 2012 re-election, but Russia wasn’t the only rogue nation he allowed to run wild across the globe. He ignored China’s growing belligerence, as well as hiding the fact that his administration knew far more about North Korea’s nuke program than it admitted. We were far closer to WWIII when he left office, and in the early months of Donald Trump’s presidency, than at any time in recent history.
4. Dividing Americans for Eight Years (lather, rinse, repeat)
Donald Trump didn’t divide America. And though the liberal media, who acquiesce to anything and everything he says and does, it was Mr. Obama who divided this nation. From weaponizing just about every federal agency against conservatives, to spying on journalists, to inciting harassment of his fellow Americans, Barack Obama spent eight years dividing, and then trying to conquer, America. And he continues to do so to this day.
And his most recent, and perhaps most egregious, anti-peace activity to date…
5. Praising South Africa’s Newest Dictator
While the media slobbered all over him…again…there were a few remarks he presented at a recent speech in South Africa—that the media naturally ignored—that revealed the true nature of Barack Obama:
In a highly controversial speech in South Africa, a nation on the brink of catastrophe amid racist land grabs and brutal massacres that experts have linked to the ruling regime, former U.S. President Barack Obama showered praises on President Cyril Ramaphosa (shown here with Obama) and other highly controversial figures. The adulation poured out on Ramaphosa went far beyond normal diplomatic courtesy. In fact, Obama claimed the radical left-wing strongman, who is right now leading the charge to steal land from minority farmers without compensation, was “inspiring new hope in this great country.” In reality, critics say he is driving it over the edge of a cliff.
Perhaps even more alarming, Obama appeared to praise Ramaphosa’s dangerous efforts to supposedly reduce inequality in South Africa — efforts that mimic the disastrous land-expropriation schemes pursued in neighboring Zimbabwe by genocidal Marxist dictator Robert Mugabe that practically destroyed the nation. Touting the Marxist Goal 10 in the United Nations Agenda 2030 scheme, which calls for national and international wealth redistribution, Obama told the crowd in Johannesburg that “we’re going to have to figure out how do we close this widening chasm of wealth and opportunity both within countries and between them.”
Yes. You read that right: Mr. Obama praised President Cyril Ramaphosa, the very same man who’s working to amend South Africa’s constitution, legalizing the confiscation of white farmers’ land—without compensation—while ignoring the weekly slaughter of white South African farmers.
Sound worthy of a “Ripple of Hope” award for “a more just world” to you? Only in BackAssWardsville.
And if the previous five reasons didn’t convince you, here’s a bonus:
These Obama-era regulations introduced excessive layers of bureaucracy that blocked proper forest management and increased environmentalist litigation and costs. https://t.co/wekL1EXrzo

In case Obama’s true character is still ambiguous, his anything-but-peaceful actions should clear up any and all doubt about who he really is: an anti-Western, pro white-racism Marxist who’s continuing to undermine both America, and our duly-elected president, on the world stage. And that deserves not another award, but the harshest of criticisms. And maybe a charge or two of sedition.
I’m surprised that you didn’t mention the “Fast and Furious” gun running debacle that provided U.S. firearms to gangs and criminals across our southern border. But then I suppose if you had mentioned every instance of Obama’s crimes against humanity you would have had to have written a book, not a blog post! 😉
F and F is definitely worth mentioning. How many Mexicans and border patrol agents are dead because of it? And how many continue to die? Now imagine where either of us would be had we done the same.
“The former president was named a Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope laureate Monday.”
A large turd dropped in the bowl makes a similar ripple.
What’s next, are we going to give Hillary and award for “advances in data storage technology?”
Ripple of Hope
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! “Ripple of Hope”! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
The award honors those who “work toward a more just and peaceful world.”
HA! The just of might and power, and the peace of slavery!
Alternatively, “You keep using those words. I don’t think they mean what you think they mean.”
Please tell me that the award is shaped like a bottle of “low-end fortified wine”?
Someone else remembers ‘Ripple’ pronounced ‘Rip-PO!’
Sounds like we have a “humanitarian crisis” in South Africa. How about a movement to encourage threatened South African farmers to emigrate to the U.S.? It would seem those folks, who are being actively oppressed -and killed- due to their ethnicity, are far better candidates for asylum than 3rd world peasants looking for a handout.
Oh, never mind! What was I thinking? South African farmers might NOT vote Democrat. And that is the decisive factor, right?
But it would be fun to have an increased number of “African-Americans” who are fairly pale. 🙂
These organizations feel obligated to make awards to the like of individuals such as Obama. These organizations are peacemakers in words only. The actions are missing. They must make awards to individuals and organizations that reflect their own hashtag efforts to attempts justify the appropriations they waste producing nice sounding but useless verbiage.
I read an economic analysis that showed black families were the only group to do worse under Obama.
