Obama's Uncle served in the..NAVY!?! (Whoops)
Riehl World View ^ | May 28 2008 | Dan Riehl

What Obama's campaign released via first link above states he served in the Infantry. I assume it's possible the records are wrong, or he changed branches. But I'm unaware of that as a standard practice. Perhaps it happened during WWII for manpower reasons? Otherwise, Obama's Great Uncle would seem to have done most of his marching and liberating while at sea.

It is likely that this Obama Lad is an arrant LIAR and a Valor Thief. It is crass and wrong for him to abuse the memory of those who served in this manner.

This issue is his SwiftBoat.

Who exactly is this relative whom he called an “Uncle”? His grandfather’s brother? Some neighbor needing a home? His mom was an only child and his father was a Kenyan Arab.

I was wondering when someone was going to start calling him out as a jive turkey. A liar of the first order.

I’d like to see a “Stop Jivin” shirt akin to the “Stop Snitchin” shirts.

Maybe someone will start a “STOP Jivin” stop sign sticker campaign. Obama has already gone on record in his letter to street warfare poster artist Shepherd Fairey that he finds sticker campaigns on stop signs to be profound and thought provoking.

Whats that? Not his uncle, but a great uncle?

Whats that? Not Aushwitz but Buchenwald?

Whats that? He was in the Navy?

Geez Hussein Obama? Anything else?

The Obamanation just can't keep his lie straight. Apparently several years ago he said that his grandfather liberated Auschwitz. Now its an uncle, then a great uncle, then a different camp, then an outer camp.

Mark my words, before this is all over, it will be a friend of the family (to remain nameless to protect his privacy) who they all considered to be an uncle.

So. My uncle served at the Waldorf, but that doesn’t make me a salad.

He thinks he’s a Stalinist. As was Saddam HUSSEIN.

And not particularly good at it, either. 'Course, he does have a media that just loves him dearly. So, nothing he says, no matter how far his foot goes into his mouth, will be remotely scrutinized by anyone sitting behind a teleprompter.......

“This issue is his SwiftBoat.”

How so? He’s been caught in numerous lies already and his supporters don’t care. Dennis Prager made a statement on his radio show that puts this in line. The left doesn’t care about his inexperience, lies, ignorant policies, anti-Americanism, muslim background and so on adnauseum.

They support him because he’s a leftist and furthers their socialist ideals. They are buying his story just like the ignorant have always bought the ideas of the socialists. Further the leftist power base supports him because he will be easily controlled.
