Obama not thrilled with Election Recount efforts
Officials in the Obama administration threw cold water on the effort to recount votes in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania on Friday. […]
A statement from the Obama administration cited by The New York Times acknowledged that the Kremlin likely expected the hacking of some Democratic Party entities in the run-up to Election Day to raise questions about the voting process and the legitimacy of President-elect Donald Trump’s victory.
“Nevertheless, we stand behind our election results, which accurately reflect the will of the American people,†the statement read.
Speculation that electronic voting machines could be hacked has largely been debunked, primarily because the machines are not connected to the internet.
ON EDIT: I know that votes can be hacked without an internet connection, so please do not mistake this post as me saying otherwise

7. He is the biggest ASSHOLE!
I really hate that bastard. More so than I ever hated W. Bush. Bush was an honest enemy who was up front about it. Obama is the worst kind of enemy, the one who pretends to be your friend and ally but is constantly stabbing you in the back and selling you down the river.
I can’t wait for him to leave office and vanish into obscurity. **** him.

Reports are also claiming Obama called Hillary and told her to concede:
http://www.jackpineradicals.com/boards/topic/obama-had-to-call-her-and-tell-her-to-concede/Obama is relieved Hillary lost the election.
Hillary is a shit magnet. If she gets hit with a sack of shit he knows he's standing close enough to her to get caught in the spray.
The sooner she is out of the public spotlight the sooner he can breathe easier. It's not like they ever liked each other. Obama made her SecState just to pad her resume for 2016 in order assuage her ire at having been outdone in 2008. Keep enemies closer than friends, and all that.
So, he confers with Trump telling the incoming president to let the email thing slide Obama agrees to not be a thorn in Trump's side but letting Trump know he can keep his campaign promise to prosecute Hillary vis-Ã -vis the Clinton Foundation investigations.
Hey...a bunny can dream, can't he?
