TODAY’S “GUARANTEED NOT PHOTOSHOPPED”: U.S. SENATOR OBAMA IN MUSLIM ATTIRE IN KENYA
This isn’t just putting on a yamaka or a head-shawl upon entering a synagogue or a mosque.
He is nearly wearing the whole shebang. And seems to be getting instructions of some sort.

vomit-proof-your-keyboard alert.
and just now getting around to being "proud" of her country?
Wonder just how far the little black girl [dry heave] would have gotten in KINSHASA?
Yep, South side of Chicago alright and Michelle is DYNOMITE, but she ain't no Florida and her background ain't no "Good Times".
So! She was not raised picking cotton.
It is only a matter of time before Michelle’s inner Black Panther emerges.
-—nope—unlike Algore—
She’s movin’ on up.
From the link:
“Michelle was from a middle-class family,” confirmed one of her long-time friends, Angela Acree.
“She came from a regular family. They had a nice home. It wasn’t a mansion, but it was just fine. It was a decent neighbourhood.”
...
Michele’s DAD:
Indeed, according to family friends, Michelle’s father was a volunteer organiser for the city’s Democratic Party, a by-word for machine politics in America, and his loyalty was rewarded with a well-paid engineering job at Chicago’s water plant. Even before overtime, he earned $42,686 - 25 per cent more than High School teachers at the time.
...
Bright and determined, Michelle was awarded a place at one of Chicago’s first ‘magnet’ schools, which offered special programmes for gifted children. By the time she was 13, she was taking a college-level biology course.
.............
Michelle beat huge competition to win a place studying sociology at Princeton, one of America’s most venerable and expensive universities.
Once she had arrived amid the fauxgothic precincts, however, she found herself surrounded by spoilt white students from wealthy families. She, in contrast, was obliged to take out loans to pay her way and this rankled, as she revealed in a 1985 thesis.
The document, now locked away by the university until after the election in November, betrays an angry, campaigning brand of politics which in no way fits with the mild-mannered advocate of common sense now winning hearts and minds from coast to coast.
....
“My experiences at Princeton have made me far more aware of my ‘Blackness’ than ever before,” she wrote. “I sometimes feel like a visitor on campus, as if I don’t really belong.”
One solution, she continued, was to “utilise all of my present and future resources to benefit (the black) community first and foremost”.
There was something of this same angry Michelle that inadvertently slipped out last week - although it will take far more than a minor hiccup like that to block Obama’s sensational progress to the nomination.
...
It was little surprise to those who knew her at the time that it was commerce not campaigning that claimed her when she graduated with a law degree from Harvard, taking a post with Sidley Austin, an eminent Chicago law firm. Her specialist area was not human rights or family law, but the lucrative detail of copyright and trademark cases.
...
Guess ole Michele traded in her bitterness of being BLACK for some WHITE $$$$
Chicago’s veteran political consultant and pundit Joe Novak agrees, saying: “She [Michelle] is now motivated more by personal gain than by social consciousness.
“She saw her opportunities, and she took them.”
The rewards have been significant. Despite the image she projects on the Newsweek cover, Michelle owns an impressive collection of diamond jewellery, designer outfits and £400-a-pair Jimmy Choo shoes.
When she is wooing working-class voters, however, she favours austere black skirts and white blouses. “Our lives are so close to normal, if there is such a thing when you’re running for president,” she declared during a campaign stop in Delaware, shortly before her husband’s latest victories were announced.
“When I’m off the road, I’m going to Target [a U.S. chain store] to get the toilet paper.”
She did not bother to mention, however, that the paper, like the rest of the family shopping, is taken to an £825,000 three-storey red-brick Georgian revival mansion, set amid beautifully manicured lawns in one of Chicago’s most affluent districts.
.....
It goes on to show how much of a lying hypocrite Michele is.
...and NOT the granddaughter of slaves! How about that?
The guys who join the Secret Service must be of a very special breed.
Which would be worse? Staking out a garbage dumpster for 2 days along a procession route, or being assigned to the personal detail of Michelle or Hillary?
I couldn’t do it!
When they put up old McCain I thought we were finished, but now I’m not so sure. The question isn’t how stupid the voters are or how much stuff there is on the Obamas. The voters are stupid and there is plenty of stuff on these empty suits. The question is how much will the MSM put out there.
She says it twice. Once in each speech.
One could almost conclude that she is ashamed of her father for making only 40+K/year while she was growing up not needing anything.
Thanks for that link
Another locked-from-sight thesis for another Democrat First Lady-to-be?
referanceping
Just like the Clinton's ... they won’t release their tax returns, Bill’s physical or Hillary’s thesis or other writing - NO! They’re locked away.
I'm wondering how much influence Oprah is having with her braindead audience!
They are always eager to do what Oprah says!
