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

Posted on 05/28/2008 5:40:19 AM PDT by Merrittk

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.

> We owe the same debt to many other folks as well. From the Revolutionary War, Civil War, Mexican American War all the way through to the current war. We owe all the people who worked hard to support them and also who worked hard to build this country.

Right then. So let’s have him on this: it is time. He goes this far, and no further. A line has been crossed. And we are rightly pissed and will not tolerate any more nonsense from him.

Geez, he even lied about his grandfather joining the Army the day after Pearl Harbor was bombed. He joined 6 months later.

Obama is starting to resemble the John Lovitz character on SNL, Tommy Flanagan, the Pathological Liar. I bet Obama’s uncle was married to Morgan Fairchild...Yeah! That’s the ticket!

He meant that his great Uncle went to the Army Navy game and met a Jewish man there for the first time named Art Buchwald or was it Art Levi? No that was another time in New Orleans.

Then he spent some time in the Attic reading marvel comic books that hadn’t been published yet, but they were Captain America so it was OK.

“Right then. So let’s have him on this: it is time. He goes this far, and no further. A line has been crossed. And we are rightly pissed and will not tolerate any more nonsense from him.”

He crossed my line when he lied about his pastor of 20 years. Sadly ironic that the first black presidential candidate who has a chance (whose also half white but I digress) is a blatant racist.

Barrack Hussein Obama is only a puppet of the left power base. His only talent is his ability to read a teleprompter and look smug. He’s a product of the system and will only drive us into complete socialism.

Great post from there:
The only thing I know for ... certain about Barack Obama is he desperately wants to be elected President. (Not sure he actually wants to BE President, or that he knows what kind of President he wants to be.)

Hey, Army...Navy...it was one of those military thingies. No doubt Obama will get someone to teach him the difference before he becomes Commander-in-Chief.

Hopefully he won't send the Coast Guard to engage in a major battle overseas...

I'm pretty sure that links will automatically be live if and only if you do NOT use HTML in the same post.

IOW if you hit the enter key for a new paragraph and don't bold or italicize anything, your address will be a link. If you so much as use < p > (w/o spaces of course) for a paragraph, your address will not become a link unless you use the HTML for making it one.

Of course not. He'll use the Salvation Navy to soften it up first.

That’s nothing ,,, this past weekend Barama addressed a crowd on Memorial day and claimed he saw the people who had died for their country sitting before him , sorta Christ like wouldn’t you say ? I believe Barama is so stupid that he probably thinks that Memorial day is the day that the pools open .

Any lame-brain knows that the pools open the Saturday before Memorial Day.

I shudder to think what the lessons will be like. “OK...we have an Army...and a Navy...and what was that third one again?

His great-uncle???? Wow. He really had to stretch to find some sort of military connection, didn’t he?

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. Instead he will be known as: Dishonest Ibrahim Lincoln

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

Osbama was very foolish to try to borrow his great-uncles stolen valor to use for his.
This panty waist is a real wimp. He doesn’t have the slightest idea of what service to the country means.
I feel sorry for his typical old white uncle..he is still alive and no doubt now will get a lot of unwanted attention.
The internet is a terrible machine in the hands of patriots.
