The plot thickens!
Are you sure those photos weren’t taken when Obama Sr. visited some years later. I believe Our Dear Leader “wrote” in “his” book that the only time he ever met his father is when he came to visit the family while they were living in Hawaii. If I recall correctly, Obama was about 10 at the time.
Like a great many of Obama’s old photos, they look Photoshopped. Heads are larger than life or in odd positions, arms are unnaturally long, etc.
There are a few out there that are amazingly bad obvious fakes.
What, a guy can’t take two different photos on the same day?
Unless you want to point something out, this’ll go down as one of the dumbest “birther” posts ever.
(I don’t consider “birther” to be a perjorative; I’m agnostic on the issue, myself.)
Yeah. Christmas decorations in San Francisco. Weird.
Just guessing here- the one with the child was taken by the mother. The one with the mom was taken by the child, it has a more unsteady hand. I have a few pics taken by me at that age with a 110 and they have that look.
Why are they in San Fran?
As I understand it, Obama saw his father at about this age when his father stopped in Hawaii between planes (I don't remember if he was supposed to have stayed a couple of days).
Certainly Obama's mom's dress is right for that period (say 1967-73).
Presumably the deportation (which I think was only a year or two after Obama was born) would have cancelled Obama Sr.'s student visa. As a Kenyan government official, I expect it would have been easy for him to have obtained a new visa several years later.
Where did you get the information that these photos were taken at the SF Airport? I was under the impression Obama was supposed to have seen his father in Honolulu. (I was in the SF Airport at least eight times from 1964-69 and a couple of times in 1974, but I certainly couldn't say if the photos were taken there or not.)
Is there any info in Obama's autobiography which gives a time of year for his father's visit? Certainly those photos seem to contain Christmas decorations. So if Obama's autobiography says his father's visit was in the summer, the Christmas decorations might indicate the photos were Photoshopped.
Wouldn't the "San Francisco" sign be more likely to refer to the origin or destination of a flight? How likely would it be to have such a sign within that part of the airport? Theoretically, everyone knows what city they're in, and aside from a few "Welcome to" signs or "SF Airport" signs, I wouldn't expect to see a small sign like that inside the SF Airport.
Barack is a lying bastard and he fuddled his parents' history at numerous times to fit the narrative. Just try to map out the timeline of his life to the speech he gave to black Democrats in Selma. He said that his parents came together AFTER the march. They were split by then. He says his daddy came to America because of a program Robert Kennedy put into place. He was conceived even before JFK took the White House.
What do you expect?
