Poor Obama. One minute he's the Messiah incarnate, the next he's forced to return a truckload of birthday balloons because the mob wants to rip him apart.
You hate to see it.
The controversy started after the news broke that Obama was going to hold a party at his estate in Martha's Vineyard with 700 people.
I personally have no problem with this. After all, tens of thousands of music fans packed into Lollapalooza in Chicago last week. Live your lives, people!
But Obama is one of the elite woke, and as such, he is expected to adhere to the proper religious rites and rituals of our new cultural religion.
Fear of Covid is one such rite.
At first, the Obamas tried really hard to show they were still being careful with their fancy party on their multimillionaire estate.
In the end, however, the Obamas caved to the Woke Monster, because of course they did.
Now, the [Obama family] rep says it'll just be close friends and family in attendance -- no word on an actual headcount, but it sounds more intimate than crazy. They add on BO's behalf, "He's appreciative of others sending their birthday wishes from afar and looks forward to seeing people soon."
Sad!
Even worse, there were supposed to be a whole bunch of stars to celebrate Obama going over the hill:
The party was supposedly going to be a who's-who of power brokers -- folks like Steven Spielberg, Oprah and George Clooney were expected to show (although Biden weirdly wasn't) ... and instead of gifts, Barack was asking folks to donate to programs supporting kids and people of color.
We're told some of the would-be attendees were already on Martha's Vineyard. Well, there are worse places to get stuck.
So very, very tragic.
