A Discussion About Obama’s America At The Ace Of Spades Podcast

Here’s an excerpt from J.J. Sefton at the Ace of Spades site this morning…

One of the great things about being privileged enough to do what I do is that it affords me the opportunity to meet and talk with some truly eloquent and “wicked-smaaart” (as they would intone up in Boston) authors and commentators around. One of them is Scott McKay, who is a regular contributor on American Spectator as well as on his own site RVIVR.com.

CBD and I had a fantastic conversation with him on the latest episode of the podcast (here and in the sidebar) about his latest book Racism, Revenge and Ruin: It’s ALL Obama. The first thing that hit me when reading through it, aside from the fact that after just the first 10 pages I wanted to open a vein (and not necessarily mine IYKWIMAITYD), I had forgotten both the absolute moral and intellectual vacuity of the dog-eating, narcissistic Marxist stoner as well as the way an incurious, and to be more accurate, conspiratorial media-propaganda industry foisted this destructive fraud on us.

He’s talking, of course, about the 90-minute podcast interview I did with him and his co-host CBD on Friday. Listen to it here…

CutJibNewsletter Speaks: Season 5, Episode 9

Of course, it's one of the cool things about doing what I do that I get to occasionally interface with some of the real giants in the conservative blogosphere, and Sefton and CBD and the gang at Ace of Spades are without question on that roster.

Without giving too much away, we did a somewhat wide-ranging conversation about Racism, Revenge and Ruin and the subject - Obama's "fundamental transformation" of America - that it covers. But when you do that you aren't just talking about the policy outcomes of Obama's eight years in office; the fact is, not all that many of those survived beyond Donald Trump's first year in office. Obama was generally an ineffectual president.

But as a cultural and political force, Obama's impact might be greater than anybody since John F. Kennedy. And unlike Kennedy, who set the standard for American politics as the desire for youthful enthusiasm, glamor and optimism among our leaders, Obama's cultural/political impact was much different.

So when you start talking about that impact, before long you're talking about movies, the dating world and single people, corporate America and a number of things which you wouldn't associate with an American president. But the forces Obama mainstreamed and set loose on the country have made this place very, very different than it was in, say, 2007 when he first entered the scene.

And what's central to Racism, Revenge and Ruin is to examine those things and recognize that transformation wasn't organic and it wasn't what we as a society intended.

The podcast is great. The book is better. Pre-order your copy here.
