Just because...
I have been pointing out the lies in our Presidents autobiography for about 4 years on this forum, and am always mocked when I do it...seems not many people care that our President wrote 2 auto biographies and lied....I read both of them and tried to post items on here about the total idea of what he says is just not true.
However, those who adore the president can see him doing no wrong in anyway....but I feel compelled to post this because I am used to being ridiculed for this, although NOT ONE PERSON has ever contested it, which means I suppose that" it is ok to lie in your auto biographies and it DOES NOT SPEAK to your character. That means there is a lot of room for people in publlic office to lie and not be called on it.
"A new biography of Barack Obama has established that his grandfather was not, as is related in the President’s own memoir, detained by the British in Kenya and found that claims that he was tortured were a fabrication.
'Barack Obama: The Story' by David Maraniss catalogues dozens of instances in which Obama deviated significantly from the truth in his book 'Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance'. The 641-page book punctures the carefully-crafted narrative of Obama’s life.
One of the enduring myths of Obama’s ancestry is that his paternal grandfather Hussein Onyango Obama, who served as a cook in the British Army, was imprisoned in 1949 by the British for helping the anti-colonial Mau Mau rebels and held for several months."
And this I pointed out in 2008 even before he was a nominee and nobody cared then....
"Obama himself, Maraniss finds, deliberately distorted elements of his own life to fit into a racial narrative. The author writes that Obama presents himself in his memoir as ‘blacker and more disaffected’ than he really was.
The memoir ‘accentuates characters drawn from black acquaintances who played lesser roles his real life but could be used to advance a line of thought, while leaving out or distorting the actions of friends who happened to be white’.
This is from UK because as we have seen over and over for years, the USA press does not cover this....more interested in that machine at WAWA than having a President who has lied and continues to do so. Why character is not an issue with this race, I dont get.
