Sadly, no. She wasn’t joking. Take a gander at this absurd tweet from Valerie Jarrett:
"Cynicism doesn’t fix anything. Hope does. Hope packed buses of freedom riders. Hope got @repjohnlewis back up after being beaten." POTUS

Come. On.
A question for Buffoon Jarrett:
This the "hope" you had in mind ginning up outrage @vj44 ? https://t.co/Nj4FmJPbT2

Yep. As Twitchy reported, President Obama further fanned the Ferguson flames on Saturday at that Congressional Black Caucus Foundation event. Right before a Ferguson, Mo., police officer was shot.
Hope?

.@vj44 When will discrimination end? Also, what's your job title? And what are your accomplishments?

@redsteeze @vj44 and if you're a JV team, with some Hope and a thoroughly incompetent adversary, there's no telling how far you can go.

@vj44 @repjohnlewis "Hope" sure didn't save me $2500 on my Insurance!

@exjon @GayPatriot @vj44 Hope did not storm the beaches at Normandy. Hope did not put men on the moon. Hope is not a plan.

And an excellent exit point:
@exjon @vj44 Yes. We are all still hoping. For. Something. To. Change.
