And a <a href=\"http:\/\/hosted.ap.org\/dynamic\/stories\/U\/US_TRUMP_OBAMA?SITE=AP&amp;SECTION=HOME&amp;TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&amp;CTIME=2017-05-09-03-49-33\">story on the Drudge Report claims that Obama<\/a> is becoming more and more active in the opposition to Trump. Not ever mentioning Trump\u2019s name, but doing everything he can to undermine Trump\u2019s agenda with speeches all over the world, which state his opinion on what\u2019s happening in America. It\u2019s all based on the fact that Obama\u2019s the smartest guy in the room and he\u2019s the guy with all the compassion and he\u2019s the guy with the knowledge and he\u2019s the guy qualified to know what the future holds and his ideas are being undermined.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-232731\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ObamaMoneyPile.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"585\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ObamaMoneyPile.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ObamaMoneyPile-300x154.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/>Largely, this is what his speeches are about, and what is the one characteristic that you attach to Obama? <a href=\"http:\/\/insider.foxnews.com\/2017\/05\/08\/charles-krauthammer-slams-obama-obamacare-replacement-republicans-jfk-speech\">Charles Krauthammer on Fox the other night<\/a> said that what drove him nuts about Obama was his condescension. Now, I agree with that. I think arrogance and condescension combined in one character trait probably equal the most irritating personality traits I encounter. Arrogant, smug, condescension. I use &#8220;smug&#8221; to describe Obama. And I think it\u2019s a defining characteristic of all liberals: Smug, know-it-all arrogance.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re ignorant experts! They\u2019re experts in things that they have never, ever done and no one does is that better than Obama. For example, liberals tell everybody how to raise their kids with no evidence that they know how to do it on their own! (scoffs) In fact, the evidence that they don\u2019t know how is all over the place. They tout public schools as the single, best thing you can do, and they wouldn\u2019t dare send their own kids there if they have to. Private education in this country almost exists for the express purpose of schooling liberal kids.<\/p>\n<p>Michelle Obama? They\u2019ll tell you what to eat. They\u2019ll tell you what you\u2019re eating is unhealthy. They will demand that you only eat this. Michelle Obama devised a school lunch menu that kids were throwing in the trash and sneaking in pizza and burgers, and you know what one of the key elements of the Michelle Obama menu was? No salt! That\u2019s right. They\u2019ll tell you what to eat with no interest in food before they lived in the White House. Michelle Obama, she wasn\u2019t a food expert ever.<\/p>\n<p>Food was never a cause of hers. She becomes first lady and has to become an expert in something. It has to be something &#8220;caring.&#8221; So food became it. They will tell you they know everything about earth\u2019s climate without any degrees, without any ability. No one understands earth\u2019s climate much less a has-been politician. Liberals may be many things, but they\u2019re always smug, and Obama defines it. He exudes smug. Perfect role model for smug wannabes. He knows better. He\u2019s the smartest. He\u2019s the wisest human being in every room that he enters.<\/p>\n<p>And the Clintons have just gotta be jealous as they can be. I mean, they\u2019re out there doing speeches, 25 of \u2019em now a month here for a quarter million dollars. Here\u2019s Obama raking in three million for one speech in Milan? Can you imagine how jealous the Clintons are? I can just see Bill Clinton storming around. (impression) &#8220;Everybody talks about how greedy I am? I went out there, and I had the Energizer Bunny and I was doing everything I can to raise money for Hillary campaign, foundation! A paltry $200,000 here, $10,000 over there. This guy\u2019s out there&#8230; This is a guy, I told Ted Kennedy one time, &#8216;Obama\u2019s the kind of guy used to serve us our drinks.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-232760\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ObamaSituationRoomBenghazi.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"585\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ObamaSituationRoomBenghazi.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ObamaSituationRoomBenghazi-300x128.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/>&#8220;Now this guy\u2019s out there getting $3 million for speeches? Arrogant, condescension, smug stuff.&#8221; Have you heard that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/james-patterson-to-pen-new-thriller-with-co-author-president-bill-clinton\/\">Clinton is writing a book with James Patterson<\/a>? Did you hear about this? James Patterson, the prolific mystery writer and mystery author. He lives here. I\u2019ve played golf with James Patterson. I\u2019ve run into him at restaurants. I can\u2019t say that he\u2019s a friend. He\u2019s an acquaintance. I speak to him when I see him. But James Patterson and Bill Clinton are co-writing a thriller called The President is Missing. It\u2019s due out in 2018. I think it\u2019s probably based on a true story: The night of the Benghazi attack.
