"... undermined his belief that the health of every individual is really the government's responsibility. And we all know, obama is a man of his principles.

I know that this satire, but I also believe that Obama knows that George isn't really his brother.

Maybe there’s something on the business form that releases some dearly held info....

My training, and the time from my life it took to gain it is not Obama’s or the government's to give away. This guy is truly a two bit idiotic communist.
To: John Semmens
Yes, he could easily have afforded the $1,000. But paying out of his own pocket would’ve undermined his belief that the health of every individual is really the government’s responsibility.
This is so twisted and sick that I can’t believe it. Wow.

“”But paying out of his own pocket would’ve undermined his belief that the health of every individual is really the government’s responsibility.
Under a properly working health care system the needs of impoverished people like the President’s half-brother would be provided for by the government, Carney maintained. Were the President to undertake individual action to provide for his own relatives he could be accused of favoritism. So, much as it saddens him to see anyone suffer he feels it is a necessary sacrifice that helps build the case for universal health care.”” - article
This is amazing - Romney should make a commercial out of this event. It shows how disconnected Obama is to the American concept of family and personal responsibility. It also shows his callousness - He would let his brother suffer to prove a point that government needs to play a larger role.

Pssst: It's satire. Nevertheless, it does illuminate one abiding principle:
OBAMA. IS. A. JERK.
The real life Obama snubbed his own brother. There is only one word for this kind of person in the English language.
