Charles W. Payne, born 1924, enlisted 10 Nov '42, Navy, 6293977 REgistered, order #12019, Kansas City, Wyandotte Co., Board #4

So, Obama's great uncle liberated Buchenwald from his ship somewhere in the Pacific?

Stalinists love to edit the historical record. George Orwell gave up on socialism because of his encounters with such despots.

The “S” in the census data you reference indicates “son” and is not his middle initial

There were Marines in the European Theater during WWII. As stated by Tony they served on ships as gunners and sharpshooters to take out enemy mines. They also guarded Naval Bases in Ireland. Small numbers of Marines were attached to the OSS and parachuted behind enemy lines to train the French Resistance fighters and saboteurs to harass the German war machine. They were not involved in liberating concentration camps.

Hmm, interesting. I am now getting “question has been deleted” for this, on the Yahoo Answers site.

Yes, I have never seen any evidence at all that Obama cared a bit about the “white” side of his family until they became useful campaign props to bolster his new-found “patriotism” schtick. Until the current campaign he was embarrassed by everything “white” and spent his entire adult life trying to identify more with the Kenyan side up his ancestry (and a father he never knew) plus the far-left agitprop racialists of Rev. Wright and friends.

The punch line is that Obama will make sure that America’s fighting men and will get all the mental care they deserve.

That’s it. That’s the punch line. That’s the reason for the fable. That’s what American fighting men are good for: a story line for a health care pitch. And the combat vet is cast in the eternal role that the Liberals have created for him: the crazy uncle in the attic.

The one who, because he undergoes mental health treatment, will no longer be able to own a gun under President Obama.

Any present or former military (and their families) who are for Obama for the mental health benefits should be VERY careful what they wish for - because they may get it. Yes, I'm sure that in such a large group of people there are a few bona fide crazies who shouldn't own guns, but there's an underlying purpose behind this quest to provide such benefits. Hint: it ain't to benefit vets, about whom Obomination couldn't give a rat's ass.

Obama goons attempt to censor the internet. They spammed the abuse button and managed to delete the embarrassing information.

Did Charles W. middle name come from one of his grandmothers maiden names, Wolfley or Wright?

Another family name is Wilburn.

“It was my great uncle, not my uncle as I claimed. It was Buchenwald not Auschwitz as I claimed and he was in the Navy not in the Army as I claimed”

But, it was true he signed up right after Pearl Harbor, I mean give or take a year,

I don't know but what I do know is that Obama knows that there's some information that makes him a liar no matter which way he spins.

Well, you see, it’s because of “neighborhoods in Chicago” and in the Midwest beset by job losses in a changing economy; “they get bitter, they cling to communism or socialism or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or they tell lots of lies” to vent their frustrations.

I’ll bet it is the right Charles W. Payne and that he was in the Navy, never got anywhere near a German Extermination Camp, and probably turns out to be a cook on one of the Navy boats.

Dear Sirs,

In light of the recent controversy over the military service of Barrak Obama’s grandfather, Charles W Payne, I was hoping to contact you to get some kind of verification of his membership in the 89th.

I’ve checked the records of http://www.kshs.org/genealogis.....p;branch=N and they only list him as being in the Navy.

I would like to get a second source to confirm that Obama is still lying on this subject as my grandfathers, father and uncles all served in WWII, Korea and Vietnam and I don’t particularly care for politicians lying about the service of family members to further thier political agendas.

Thank you in advance!

I’m sending a follow up email asking for verification above and beyond his word. ;-)
