1.) Selma Got Me Born - NOT EXACTLY, your parents felt safe enough to have you in 1961 - Selma had no effect on your birth, as Selma was in 1965. (Google 'Obama Selma' for his full March 4, 2007 speech and articles about its various untruths.)
2.) Father Was A Goat Herder - NOT EXACTLY, he was a privileged, well educated youth, who went on to work with the Kenyan Government.
3.) Father Was A Proud Freedom Fighter – NOT EXACTLY, he was part of one of the most corrupt and violent governments Kenya has ever had.
4.) My Family Has Strong Ties To African Freedom - NOT EXACTLY, your cousin Raila Odinga has created mass violence in attempting to overturn a legitimate election in 2007, in Kenya. It is the first widespread violence in decades. The current government is pro-American but Odinga wants to overthrow it and establish Muslim Sharia law. Your half-brother, Abongo Obama, is Odinga's follower. You interrupted your New Hampshire campaigning to speak to Odinga on the phone.
Obama's cousin Odinga in Kenya ran for president and tried to get Sharia Muslim law in place there. When Odinga lost the elections, his followers have burned Christians' homes and then burned men, women and children alive in a Christian church where they took shelter..
5.) My Grandmother Has Always Been A Christian - NOT EXACTLY, she does her daily Salat prayers at 5am according to her own interviews. Not to mention, Christianity wouldn't allow her to have been one of 14 wives to 1 man.
6.) My Name is African Swahili - NOT EXACTLY, your name is Arabic and 'Baraka' (from which Barack came) means 'blessed' in that language. Hussein is also Arabic and so is Obama.

Liberals do not know how not to lie.
guess you might say he’s not exactly a messiah—maybe a false messiah for those who deeply desire to expiate their liberal guilt.

Keep up the good work. Obama must not be elected.
Looks like bam bam is about to outdo the Clintons in the lying department.
Amend that: Liberals lie ALL THE TIME. They can't tell the truth because the truth would reveal that their policies and liberalism never work and always fail... which is not a very good recipe for getting elected to office which is their one and only objective!
I am not so sure Obama knows he is lying, I think he has created these illusions of his father to make it easier to cope on a personal level. Maybe Obama's mother lied to Barack to make it seem like he wasn't son to a wife-beating , polygamist, drunken goat herder and Barack just doesn't know any better. Anyway you look at it Barack Jr. is naive and not realistic.
BTW, this is a very good list of “not exactlies”... every time Obama begins a sentence “As I’ve said many times”, you know a switcheroo is coming. The only thing this guy is accomplished at is rewriting his own history.
I forgot where I heard this from, but it was a line from a popular talk-show host:
‘To anger a conservative, tell a lie.
To anger a liberal, tell the truth.’
‘zactly
Read the list again, Barack’s father was not a goat herder. In fact, he was coddled by his government.
