So the party went forward with a “trimmed down” guest list. Who got UN-invited? Mostly Obama’s prior W.H. staffers and “non-essential” types (i.e., read “not Hollywood” types). Hollywood types and their hair and makeup staff were given a “party pass.” 😳
Now, it’s not the invited/not invited part that sticks in my craw. No. That’s not the bigger point here. It’s that the birthday party went forward in the first place, in spite of the more virulent delta strain raging on. I don’t care if this milestone birthday was many months in the planning/making, and that everyone who attended was a low risk. “Not good enough” (reason) to my way of thinking.
Granted, I don’t know the whole story, but on its surface, I see it as sending the wrong message to the populace-at-large. Same thing with that “Sturgis Motorcycle Rally” in South Dakota. Neither gets a pass with me. Both are ridiculous and beyond stupid. ☹️
I’m really disappointed that Obama would let the party go forward. Yes, you can’t make everyone happy. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. But Obama’s stock just went down a few notches with me, a Democrat.
So, what’s your opinion on this?
Thanks for posting and recommending.
