Obama's goofy life

[vraiblonde]

So what? He just has brothers and sisters scattered all over the world that he's never met or been involved with?

I thought Bill Clinton's family was screwy, but Obama is starting to look like the story of dysfunction.

He has parents he barely knew and didn't grow up with, that are now dead. He was raised by white grandparents who he rarely mentions. And I know he has a half-sister, and now some Ubangi brother has creeped out of the veldt. Why is he so disassociated from his family?

There's never any mention of family money, yet Obama went to LA and NYC for college - how did that happen? He mentions smoking a lot of pot in college, but doesn't say anything about a job to help with his schooling costs.

So he graduates from college, gets a great job with lots of room for advancement and achievement, then gives that up to go to Harvard Law. Where did THAT money come from?

He's like Bill Clinton: has this big fancy education, with no background of how it was paid for. You'd think these guys who come from nothing and manage to get a big degree, travel overseas, etc, would share with the class how they made that happen so that other kids with big dreams could emulate them.

It's weird.

Funny, was saying the same thing when we were watching the show about Obama's life on Fox. Maybe someone needs to follow the money...

...who he is; All about Barrack Obama.

If you catch one of the highlight specials about him, even the one CNN ran deal with his...more focused...personality traits, calling him cut throat, you find a very calculating and determined young man.

His elevation to state Senator came from a gift from a Chicago patron who liked him and whom was leaving her state senate seat to him in order to run for US house. She failed and decided she wanted her old seat back. She expected him to step aside and not run for it. In effect giving it back. He said no.

She got her petition work done to be on the ballot anyway and even Obama supporters say she would have creamed him had she been on the ballot. So, he challenged her petition, got the signatures thrown out, along with those of every other opponent, and ran unopposed.

And that is the man of hope and change.

I keep wondering when THAT little nugget will become common knowledge.

Damn. Somebody's been reading his Machiavelli.

...I said; it's been on everywhere. I actually heard it on CNN. :shrug:

 

[Larry Gude]

So...

Damn. Somebody's been reading his Machiavelli.

...the real question is do we want someone that cold and calculating in the oval office? Could be an asset if he just wins all the time, assuming he's winning at things that are good for our nation.

 

[Lugnut]

...assuming he's winning at things that are good for our nation.

Unfortunately, THAT would not be a safe asumption!!

 

[Larry Gude]

Ok...

Unfortunately, THAT would not be a safe asumption!!

...but in all honesty; I view the leadership of W as simply horrific. He's has transformed this nation in all sorts of ways that will be long lasting and, in my view are very negative things. I voted for him. Twice.

I can point to every one of the things I don't like and I still don't get how a two term GOP governor of a cool place like Texas, with a guy I love, Cheney, could do so much stuff so poorly that I so profoundly disagree with.

Point being, how qualified am I, honestly, given my personal record with W, to judge what Obama might or might not do?

Not very.


Hell, it could be a good thing for us.

If he didn't need his wife and kids to make himself look normal he'd probably throw them under the bus.

Where...

...you been? Michelle hasn't been able to make an appearance or a speech or even say 'hi' in public, that made the toob, in, what, over a month?

We'll leave kids out of this.

Interesting you would make that observation...

Damn. Somebody's been reading his Machiavelli.

...but that's precisely what Corsi says in Obama Nation. Hate to sound like a broken record but the book is so good I went out and bought a hardcover version so I can re-read and make notes.

I believe he has older brother's and sisters from when his dad was married to his African wife. Dad took off to the United States and wound up hooking up with his Obama's white mother. He then took off and went back to Africa to hook back up with the original African wife, and I believe he had another kid with her.

I really can't blame Obama for not really wanting to have anything to do with his African family, I'd be a bit bitter if dad ditched me to go back to freakin Africa.

From what I've read he had a few more wives and kids along the way. His dad was a drunk and a bigamist.

WOW! Now you'll have a print copy as well as an audio copy! Be sure to make notes on his 9/11 theories.

The least bad scenario for republicans is to actually allow Nobama to win. After 4 years of dummycratic rule, electing a republican to the Presidency ought to be a breeze. Hopefully we can find a genuine conservative, rather than another phony.
