I won't give it away, but the whole tone of the George Obama interview was the most revealing part of the movie for me. At the very least it should put to rest speculations about Obama's parentage. Barack and George are cut from the same cloth. Tall, lanky, intelligent, mostly soft-spoken. But despite his personal poverty and the corrupted squalor that is Kenya, George does not blame the rich or the whites or the West for his problems, quite the opposite. Very, very refreshing. And you can clearly see why BHO doesn't want to help his brother. In that category, only true believers need apply.
I saw the movie at a 1:30 p.m. showing this afternoon in a San Francisco suburb.
Theater was 3/8 full. Audience consisted of mostly viewers age 50+ with a few younger people, plus whole families.
Applause at the end.
I was impressed with the poise George Obama showed in his brief interview. Was the comment you mentioned related to Genesis 4:9, and his response to BO's interpretation of it?
And to tag onto your other comment, anyone who had any doubts about BO's foreignness will have THOSE doubts put to rest after having seen this movie. The man is not American at all.
thecodont, no it wasn’t the “my brother’s keeper” comment. I guess at this point in the conversation I can say it. It’s no big deal, but my one hypenated word that I knew, but ignored, and went the communism, marxism, socialism route (which also fits) is anti-colonialism. George said he thought Kenya would be a far more developed country had Whites stayed there longer.
He’s a smart guy.
thecodont, yes the connection to the wider world is clear. The other significance of anti-colonialism is where he has allowed drilling, the countris he has given or loaned money to for drilling and the idea that it’s payback for what the US and the UK did in other countries.
I think D’Souza presented a very valid case. There’s also the part about Lolo going to work for big oil, what she said to him and what happened then. Anti-colonist!
