   It appears to me that Obama told this “uncle in the attic” story on Memorial Day in attempts to tie President Bush to the notion of a lack of funding for Veterans issues.

   Regardless, Obama now needs to clear up the details of his story:

   1. Did his maternal grandfather, paternal grandfather or his uncle help liberate a concentration camp during WW II?
   2. Which concentration camp was it? Because it wasn’t Auschwitz.
   3. If his uncle didn’t help liberate Auschwitz, why did he say he did, and then why did this same uncle spend six months in an attic if he wasn’t near the horror of Auschwitz?
   4. Why was he campaigning on Memorial Day, complete with an Obama dot com banner on his podium?
   5. Why was he trying to score political points on Memorial Day?

   I used to consider Mr. Hopenchange to be a prime example of what Reagan called, “High-IQ dimwits.” But I’m coming to question the “High-IQ” part. Having been through law school, I seriously have to question how this guy made it through Harvard Law. The stink of Affirmative Action/racial quotas/race-based favoritism in that regard is becoming overpowering.

   Back in the 9th grade, one of the two blacks in my middle school ran for student body president and won in a landslide — despite repeatedly proving beforehand that he had the intellectual candlepower of a black hole. It was pure popularity-contest election by acclamation, what you’d expect of a bunch of 14-15 year olds.

   And yet today, the donkeys want to do the same thing — only with the US presidency. In support of the proposition that liberals are afflicted with a malign form of Arrested Adolescence, I offer their brain-dead worship of Hopenchange as Exhibit “A” and rest my case. Q.E.D.
   

   How has it come to pass that Dan Quayle (elected to Congress in 1976, re-elected in 1978, elected to Senate in 1980, re-elected in 1986) was questioned about his “lack of experience” for the vice presidency, while Hopenchange (less than one term in the Senate) isn’t questioned about his lack of qualification for the #1 spot?

   How is it that Quayle’s mis-spelling of “potato” made him an idiot, while Hopenchange’s confusion of the number of states in the Union with a steak sauce made by Heinz doesn’t?

   Isn’t it ironic that an “inexperienced idiot” like Quayle would seem positively Churchillian in seasoning and qualifications if he were to run against The New Messiah today?

   If the donkeys have their way in November, it’s going to be Waldo Middle School all over again. They don’t want a leader; they want a “Rock Star.” They don’t give a damn about qualifications; they want to “feel the buzz.”

   And if we sit on our hands, they’ll get what they want.

   “A great civilization is not destroyed from without until it is destroyed from within”

   Oh come one, give Obama a break. When he’s giving a speech about being patriotic and honoring fallen American soldiers for their ultimate sacrifice to this great nation, remember that every single word of it is a lie. That’s a tough speech to give. There’s bound to be a screw-up here and there. The small lie interjected? He’s proven he can handle that. But an entirely contrived speech, where he’s forced to say the opposite of what he really feels over and over? Yup, that’s a tough one to deliver with the usual Obama panache.

    What is wrong with this story.
    1/ He didn’t have an uncle.
    2/ The us army didn’t liberate that camp.
    3/ The screening after deployment that he is demanding already exists.

    I am sure others can go on, but just that alone proves this is a lie. Come on, he talked about an uncle HE DOESN’T HAVE!!!! This lie is simply lame. Doesn’t he know that we do know how to check this stuff?

    The most famous concentration camp liberated by Americans was Buchenwald, by the 442 out of Hawaii and the 552 Artillery. But Obama could not possibly have an uncle from that era. Buchenwald is notorious because the Jewish and communist women were forced into sexual slavery. It was also the site of Germean medical ‘experiments, and the execution of Soviet POWs.

    Re Treblinka – As I’m sure others have noted, the Germans murdered roughly one million people there before shutting it down in 1943, long before the Soviets reached its location. Treblinka was never “liberated” in the sense other camps were because there was no one left alive there by the time the Soviets arrived at that location. US troops certainly did not liberate the camp. Everything about Obama’s statements on this subject is complete horse****.

    Obama’s going to get a total pass on all this crap, though. Just like he does with everything else. Chris Matthews and his pals in the media still have that thrill firing up and down their leg no doubt. It’s a shame we don’t have a functioning free press in this country. Just grown men and women who talk about candidates like pre-teen readers of Tiger Beat magazine.

    Obama will get a pass on all this stuff because everyone knows that Democrats are “articulate,” “intelligent” and well intentioned, and Republicans are monosyllabic, war-mongering money pigs.

    It doesn’t matter how inane and ill-informed you are; if you are slender, have nice teeth and excellent hair, bite your lip in order to mimic empathy, you will not be portrayed in the MSM as dumb. They even portray Biden as bright, and he’s as dim as a bag of ball peen hammers.

    Let me correct that. If you are slender, have nice teeth and excellent hair, bite your lip to mimic empathy, have a nice, narrow tie, speak in multilayered sentences, and possess a (D) after your name, you are portrayed in the MSM as an “intelligent,” “progressive” candidate, even if your knowledge of geography falls short of a third grader’s.

    Here’s a question I’d LOVE to see asked of Obambi: “Senator Obama, can you name the capitals of North Dakota and Wyoming? What state is immediately south of Kansas?”

    And one more, just for laughs: “What is your stance on REPARATIONS FOR SLAVERY?”

    Those might sink even the Messiah himself.

    Maybe he saw his uncle single-handley rescuing people at concentration camps. I suppose if one used the crack pipe too much, he would see Audie Murphy and Alvin York too. On top of that, who would want to vote for anyone with the initials, “B.O.” Well, I bet he can’t wait until the convention. There he can shake hands with FDR and Truman.
