“My grandfather marched in Patton’s army, but I cannot know what it is to walk into battle like so many of you,” he told a small group of veterans here

Obama also spoke about his uncle, who was part of the American brigade that helped to liberate Auschwitz.

Seeing as how Auschwitz was liberated by the Soviets, either:
(1) Obama is lying
(2) Obama’s heritage includes communists
(3) Obama is significantly undereducated for the position that he is applying for
(4) All of the above

The Red Army liberated Auschwitz, not Patton, not the U.S. Army.

HE LIES AGAIN.

Even Wiki tells a tale. Of course, when the nObamans notice it they will probably edit the historical records.

Shades of 1984.

When the Soviet army liberated Auschwitz on January 27, 1945, they found about 7,600 survivors abandoned there. More than 58,000 prisoners had already been evacuated by the Nazis and sent on a final death march to Germany.

The man whose service record will decode this fable is probably his great uncle, Charles Payne. Payne was his Grandmother Dunham’s brother, and is the only male in the Obama family tree, other than his grandfather, who could have been serving in 1945.

Hey, Obama you jerk -— you shouldn’t claim credit for the good done by the WHITE side of your family which you’ve thrown under the bus.....

Tell us what the black side of your CHOSEN side of the family has accomplished......other than impregnating silly white women and abandoning them...

Waiting.......waiting......waiting....
Okay....NOTHING there.

Now, tell us what YOU have accomplished for the country.
Waiting...... waiting...... waiting.
Nothing there either, huh!

Obama doesn’t know the truth to begin with.

It might have been Buchenwald or Dachau; Patton’s Army liberated that area of Germany.

As the saying goes, Obama is close enough for government work.

BTW, I would like to see in “quotes” the Auschwitz comment, otherwise it might be reporter error.

I'd very much like to see that too. Especially in light of Hillary's gaffe over claiming to have been in a combat zone in Bosnia.

“Yeah, his relatives freed the WW II concentration camps marching in with STALIN’S forces.”

Why not? His uncle’s name was Mohammed Obamovitch.

This story just fills me with questions. Questions like:

Did his uncle have to dodge sniper fire?

Does he still have the hat he was given by the CIA agents who met him and told him to liberate the camp?

When will Obambi drive a tank for a photo shoot?

Thanks. That's a great bit of data.

Will Barack Obama's American grandmother emerge from radio silence to declare that her own brother was a Section 8?

Maybe you should talk to an Army recruiter. Maybe they will take you. It's worth a shot.

It is disgusting, his black relatives didn’t live in the US until he himself lived here, and he almost NEVER mentions his white relatives at all unless he is insulting them in a typical manner

now, all of a sudden he is proud of his white relatives...

Obama is a racist through and through, only he is a racist against 50% of himself...
