The post you cited came very late in the discussion. It succeeded the posts re: whether anyone on HI knew Stanley Ann and Obama Sr. even knew the other one existed, much less had a relationship. I quoted extensively from David Maraniss’ book re: the fact that he was unable to locate a soul who knew Stanley Ann and O Sr. had any kind of relationship at all. You very nastily said I didn’t know my subject, and the info was in Janny Scott’s book. I.e.: the info I was looking for specifically, which I had clarified, namely, whether there was any testimony to the effect that O Sr. & Stanley Ann even knew ea. other.

None of the biographers have turned up any evidence that they did. That was my point throughout the discussion. Late in the discussion you got off onto your own weird track, but it had nothing to do with me. From the beginning, I was focused on whether anyone knew Stanley Ann & Obama Sr. had a relationship.

And that comment came along with one about no one seeing Stanley Ann pregnant, which combined with the statement about Obama, Sr., made me think you were questioning whether S.A. was Obama, Jr.'s mother. Hence the confusion. Hence my remark about the discussion being "off track." You intended one thing; I read another. When I realized that, I said to disregard my point about the author as it no longer applied.

But, even then, at the same time as I was alluding to Janny Scott, I noted it's really a tangential point:

"There was at least one biographical piece done on Stanley Ann where the author went and spoke with persons who knew about her relationship with Obama, Jr. So the sort of testimony you appear to be seeking is out there. I don't recall the piece offhand. But until the 800-pound gorilla in the room (Hawaii's attestation of Obama's birth there) is acknowledged, I don't feel a whole lot of need to go chasing it down."

And here we are, countless posts later, and you are still trying desperately to ignore that 800-pound gorilla.

Comincal.
