Critics noticed Obama had no white 'uncle', and the only crazy 'uncle' he seems to have is Rev Wright, and Ogaffa threw him under the bus weeks ago.

Of course, the MSM does not call him for using Memorial Day (and saying he saw dead vets in the audience) and the Holocaust for his own political gain. I wonder if any freepers know how to look up military records for his grandmother's brother, Charlie Payne, to see if he actually was there in April 1945?

RUSH:...Here's a final sound bite from President Bush.

THE PRESIDENT: On this Memorial Day, I stand before you as the commander-in-chief and try to tell you how proud I am of the sacrifice and service of the men and women who wear our uniform. They're an awesome bunch of people, and the United States is blessed to have such citizens. I am humbled by those who have made the ultimate sacrifice that allow our free civilization to endure and flourish. It only remains for us, the heirs of their legacy, to have the courage and the character to follow their lead and to preserve America as the greatest nation on earth and the last, best hope for mankind. May God bless you, and may God bless America.

RUSH: Again, that's the stupid idiot George Bush who can't speak, on Memorial Day. This was Barack Obama in Las Cruces, New Mexico, yesterday.

OBAMA: On this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes -- and I see many of them in...in the audience here today -- our sense of patriotism is particularly strong.

Barack Obama Sees Dead People

Obama said Monday that his uncle was among the first U.S. troops at Auschwitz. But Auschwitz was liberated by Soviet forces.

Maybe he meant his other uncle, you know, the Communist one.

Whatever the facts regarding Obama’s great uncle, let’s just remember Obama had nothing to do with liberating anything. In the great struggles of his own lifetime, Obama has been squarely against doing the right thing.

Obama was referring to his “Uncle Joe,” who liberated Poland.

Uncle Joe Stalin, that is.

Obama looks up to Uncle Joe, a lot, so this is understandable.

Charlie Payne was obviously one of those white folks clinging to his gun. I wonder if he was bitter about it?

I think I got this figured out. Obama’s momma had a momma, that would be Obama’s momma’s momma and she had a brother, that would be Obmama’s momma’s momma’s brother, that had a great great nephew, a very great nephew indeed, that when asked who chopped down that cherry tree told the truth when he said “Popeye did it”, or something like that. – Yeah, that’s the ticket!

They killed a lot of people just before the troops came, the Germans. There were still half-dead bodies. There were still bodies lying there, that must have been dead maybe seven, eight hours, and they tried to bury them just before. I recall that they were all shot. They were trying to bury them just before. And then after this I left, and they had the high brass come, the Division Commanders came and they looked at it and took pictures. I had a couple of packs of cigarettes, and I gave the survivors a couple of packs of cigarettes. Now, one American guy was telling me that they came rushing to them with such joy, and I remember when I came in, I spoke German. I remember driving up and the Germans had the white flags out, a long street, it was almost a straight street and the camp gates were open. In the town of Ohrdruf we asked where the concentration camp was. Of course, nobody knew, but very ironically the flags were lined up in two rows there. They took Ohrdruf in the morning and I was there in the afternoon, I would say maybe only four hours later. The actual troops from the 89th were still there. The 4th Armored troops moved a little faster. But the same day or the day after they had all the big “mavens” coming in. because this was a big thing. I staved there three, four hours; it wasn’t too long. I remember seeing these live bodies. Not alive; I mean, you see a picture and you see its a little different. They were the living dead, the people who were liberated, there was nothing to them. Its exactly or worse than the pictures because when you touch them its like you touch bones.

I also had a bitter disappointment in those days. I would look for my family. I won’t talk about third or fourth cousins. I’m talking about uncles, grandfathers and first cousins and second cousins. And every place I went I would find they were killed in Buchenwald, they were killed in Marienbad, or whatever the name was. And remember these things, I would write home to my mother. “I understand this one got killed there.” I can’t think back to those days; they were horrible days. In my letters borne there was this hatred. Until today when I pulled out these letters I had always thought of the army as a great place. but looking at these letters, realizing this hate I had, I said to myself. “Gee, this is not me.”

Note to Hillary: Now is the time for you to claim that one of your great-great uncles fought in the Civil War and liberated the blacks from slavery while fighting in the battle of Vicksburg...or something, equally ridiculous. Yeah, that's a good story, same caliber as Obama's statement..and that'll get you the black vote as best as Obama's stupid lie about his great uncle Charlie in WWII will get him support from the military.

These two are the most ridiculous liars in history, but Hillary is certainly more practiced.

Let’s say O’Bama is elected president. And upholding his promise, he meets with Abajabado and other ME leaders.

How can they trust anything he says as the ‘campaign ,’or in this case, administration has to sweep up after him?

So now he’s proud of his grandmother’s family?
Or are they still typical white people?

Actually, Obama’s “misstep” shows his own racial insensitivity.
Buchenwald? Auschwitz? whatever! Aren’t all liberated jews the same? Can’t we all just move on and talk about hope and change?

I had 8 uncles and my dad in WWII.

I knew where they all had been...who got Purple Hearts and the circumstance.

Here's a guy who researched his life to write his bio and he's made a public mistake on his only relative to serve in WWII who "as the legend goes" spent 6 months in an attic. Uh huh...

I'll bet it was a 1 1/2 story house...the typical war time houses...A lot of people slept in the upper level...and a lot of families were crowded with live in relatives back then.

By the way...One of my best buddies lives in his attic (2 1/2 stories) half the time...Why??...It's quiet.

If it's the haloed one's grandmother's brother, given how his grandmother raised him, then I can accept that it's his uncle. My father's brothers and sister are rightly called uncle and aunt by my daughter. So that's not a valid road of criticism.

His invoking Auschwitz is simply an example of his abysmal lack of education despite his Ivy League credentials. It also demonstrates the ignorance of his staffers or their comtempt for the people(maybe both) since this claim about Auschwitz was made on a 2002 poster, only that reference also added Treblinka to the list of camps liberated by the haloed one's uncle.

Hussein ObamaMessiaHamas on Memorial Day, 2008:

"As we landed at the local airport today, I had to run from the plane ducking Bosnian sniper bullets until I got into my 50' stretch bullet proof SUV. While running and ducking sniper bullets, I remembered my crazy uncle in the attic, who might have served in WWII."

Hussein ObamaMessiaHamas will not be known as Honest Abe.

Damn Pajama Media and Internet! I can’t lie anymore!
