This was the crazy uncle they kept locked up in the attic — at least for 6 months......

Warning!!! We are not allowed to talk about Obama's Uncle or Aunt:-)

[Snurple]

Have We Heard of Obama's Uncle Before?

Maybe Obama Senior had an older brother in the King’s African Rifles?

Maybe he was referring to a great-uncle. His grandfather’s brothers.

We need to find out whether this tale has ever turned up in Obama’s 2 books or any of his previous public utterances. It would be astonishing if his long-lost “uncle” who was there at the liberation of Auschwitz had never been mentioned before by Obama, given that he’s been talking in an autobiographical vein in public for more than a decade.

Does he even have an uncle who was in the ETO in WWII? Was it a more distant relative referred to as “uncle” (that is at least possible, my great uncle in the WWII generation, my mother’s uncle really, was always “Uncle” to me). Inquring minds want to know if Obama just let loose with another whopper gaffe. Certainly US troops were not involved with the liberation of Auschwitz in eastern Poland - were never there at all, it was deep into the area occupied by the USSR in 1945. Did Obama have a relative involved with the liberation of another concentration camp such as Dachau, or is the whole story bogus?

Probably his typical white woman grandmother’s brother.

[freespirited]

I doubt Obama would be insane enough to lie about this.

Why? He lies about virtually everything else.

[SueRae]

Does Obama have Soviet relatives? I thought the Russians liberated Auschwitz......

As a liberal, and even more importantly as a half-black liberal, he is granted a permanent mulligan on all personally aggrandizing and self-serving statements. Until he says something that actually offends the MSM (which only Algore and Hillary have managed to do in recent history), The Obama will not be questioned. He will not be scutinized. He will not be assailed or judged or looked upon with suspicion.

In fact, we are going to soon need to stop listening to him entirely in order to avoid being overwhelmed by the contradictory, imaginary and vacuous statements he continues to purvey. There simply is no other way to avoid madness on our part.

There was a really neat lie he told about Martin Luther King too, but I've forgotten how it went. I think it was something like that MLK’s I have a dream speech cause Obama’s mom and dad to fall in love. If not that, it may have been the march in Selma. Any way, he's just full of self-serving gibberish that shows him to be a very insecure man indeed. The MSM will gloss over this so fast that most Americans will never even find out about it. Remember, though, that when they turned on Hillary they skewered her, finally, for her lies. Obama’s their favorite liberal, and he'll get a pass on this recent charade.

[Cripplehawk]

his uncle, who was part of the American brigade that helped to liberate Auschwitz.”

I am sorry please don’t hate me but.

Didn’t Russia Liberated Aushwitz? THere were no AMericans in that area at all.

AM I Wrong?

Does Barry even know the meaning of Memorial Day? Rush is playing clips of Barry's speech compared to President Bush at Arlington National Cemetery. Rush says that if McCain had ever made one of these gaffes, he would have been driven out of the race.

“But the parental traits that would mold him — a contrarian worldview, an initial rejection of organized religion,...”

Can’t be. Obama is a Christian in the Jeremiah Wright vein.
