It gets stranger, read this.
Joe Kennedy did give some money for transportation that the State Department wasn’t funding...but that was in 1960.
An earlier “airlift” in “1950” probably a mistake for 1959, was funded by public donations, but not Kennedy money.
So Obama’s story is still “plausible” on the face of it, but still wrong.
Hey! The only thing I LIKE about Obama is that he smokes.

The Australians did something similar with Aboriginal children in the 50's.....and have been apologizing since.
Obama Offers Wild Revision of His Own History -
Another thing - he expresses his bio as if he was a kid from a welfare Mom, and ignored the white grandparents who sent him to elite private schools in Hawaii.
I don’t know why the Australians would have to keep apologizing...how much harm did it do to the Aboriginal children to be educated and learn about America?
That is the part that pisses me off the most.
“He then returned to Honolulu to live with his maternal grandparents while attending Punahou School from the fifth grade until his graduation in 1979.” Wikipedia
Imagine how his grandmother must feel knowing that after 8 years of raising her daughter’s son, he has disowned her husband and herself for political expediency. The grandfather is dead, but I would think the grandmother would be heartbroken.
OBAMA’S OWN HISTORY IS THE WHITE ESTABLISHMENT HOLDING THE BLACK MAN DOWN, JUST ASK HIS WIFE MICHELLE!
Thank You for the link.
I never paid much attention to Roots but what little I know of it, it was probably as exciting as a root canal.
Obama Once Visited '60s Radicals (Weather Underground Terrorists)
"Don't look at my terrorist friends....Don't look at my terrorist friends...don't look...
This is MUST READING.
Obama has re-written history here. Can we call him on it?
YES, WE CAN!!!
ooops- forgot to ping you!
Read the whole piece..
Now the media are not just trying to see if they can choose the candidates, they can. They are trying to see if they can get their choice elected.
I think the jury really is out on this.
Supporting links are well worth the read also.
