Whatever you thought of Barack Obama before, the Washington Post is here to tell us that he is actually a conservative.

Perspective: Democratic presidential candidates still can’t figure out how to talk about the most popular figure in their party, @Swerdlick writes, and there's a simple reason. Barack Obama is a conservative. https://t.co/45gsMfhQ2c — The Washington Post (@washingtonpost) November 22, 2019

Nope, not parody.

Many in today’s mainstream media wouldn’t know conservatism if it bit them.

Perspective: Whoever wrote this argument, whether it be @Swerdlick or his editors, *really* doesn’t know (or care about) anything about conservative political philosophy, nor do they care about the basic importance of semantics. https://t.co/NaGlEi0zaY — Anthony Leonardi (@TonyDLeonardi) November 24, 2019

Perhaps the Democrat Party has officially plunged so far off the left cliff that they don’t recognize anything anymore.

Perhaps the Washington Post has lost its mind.

Perhaps both.

Regardless, this is an all-timer.
