Just read a Vanity Fair article online via the UK Telegraph, that said Obama's half-brother George is living in a shack in a shantytown in Kenya on less that one dollar a month. The young man is 26 years old, no education or training, no prospects, he was mentioned by Obama in his autobiography - Obama met the boy several years ago on his trip to Kenya.

You'd think a man with Obama's assets would do something to help his impoverished half-brother. I mean, family is family, even if they are far away. Don't just use your family for a photo op for your book and then fly back home and forget them. Such a shame.

Oh...he plans to send money to his brother.

Your money and my money.

I don't understand why people, even conservatives, are running around saying they don't know the real Obama.

Hell, there's evidence all over the place. His books, his voting history, his wife, his friends.

I know exactly who this guy is and it aint pretty.

Oh so what you are saying is his brother is just as qualified to run for POTUS as he is? :)

This is one of the best articles I’ve ever read about the mainstream news media’s left wing groupthink and intellectual corruption.

Especially this line: “They have perverse news judgment...”

The media are obediently censoring things we need to know. The most obvious example is Obama’s adolescent mentor and father figure, Frank Marshall Davis.
_____________________________________________

I also believe that the media and the republican party are also ignoring his mother, gmohter and gfather. Refer to the Chicago times article 07 about his family. It let's us in on the so called Kansas values that he has. Well these are the Kansas values he has instilled from his mother. She went to high school at the mercer school which was infiltrated by communist and communist leaning teachers. According to her class mates she embraced the teachings and her parents did not care. When other parents found out about the teachers her parents did not join the protest. Not to mention she claimed to be an atheist along with her parents leaving the mainstream Christian church for a secular humanist church.
The LA times even points out that his mother was friends with Marshall before obamaboy was born. So to me we should be stressing his entire upbringing not just his friends as he got older.

He has been indoctrinated in a socialist/communist mind set from the beginning.

This man Obama has a long history of association with and mentoring from those who hate America and want to destroy her, yet we shouldn’t question his “patriotism”? He deep down hates whites and seeks vengeance upon them, yet he is the candidate of “unity”? Obama is the Orwellian candidate, and it’s disturbing that so many are ignoring the information that is right there for anyone to find.

I don't blame him for hiding. If I had a brother like Obamanation, I'd be hiding in some remote location too.

Obama’s Red Mentor Praised Red Army
AIM Report | By Cliff Kincaid | April 30, 2008

Barack Obama’s childhood mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, a member of the Moscow-controlled Communist Party USA, wrote a poem dedicated to the Soviet Red Army. “Smash on, victory-eating Red Army,” he declared. He also wrote poems attacking traditional Christianity and the work of Christian missionaries.

The “Red Army” poem goes beyond hoping for the communists to beat the Nazis in World War II and hails the Soviet revolution. It says:

Show the marveling multitudes
Americans, British, all your allied brothers
How strong you are
How great you are
How your young tree of new unity
Planted twenty-five years ago
Bears today the golden fruit of victory!

Frank Marshall Davis

Obama’s Communist Mentor
AIM Column | By Cliff Kincaid | February 18, 2008

excerpt...

"through Frank Marshall Davis, Obama had an admitted relationship with someone who was publicly identified as a member of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). The record shows that Obama was in Hawaii from 1971-1979, where, at some point in time, he developed a close relationship, almost like a son, with Davis, listening to his 'poetry' and getting advice on his career path. But Obama, in his book, Dreams From My Father, refers to him repeatedly as just 'Frank.'

The reason is apparent: Davis was a known communist who belonged to a party subservient to the Soviet Union. In fact, the 1951 report of the Commission on Subversive Activities to the Legislature of the Territory of Hawaii identified him as a CPUSA member. What's more, anti-communist congressional committees, including the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), accused Davis of involvement in several communist-front organizations."

Frank Chapman, a CPUSA supporter, has written a letter to the party newspaper hailing the Illinois senator's victory in the Iowa caucuses:

"Obama’s victory was more than a progressive move; it was a dialectical leap ushering in a qualitatively new era of struggle. Marx once compared revolutionary struggle with the work of the mole, who sometimes burrows so far beneath the ground that he leaves no trace of his movement on the surface. This is the old revolutionary 'mole,' not only showing his traces on the surface but also breaking through."
People's Weekly World (PWW), official newspaper of the Communist Party, USA

I just put down the book “Obama Nation” to check FreeRepublic and the next section I will read is about Frank Marshall Davis. Thanks for the additional information.

So far the book has told how so much of Obama’s biography is myth. It is infuriating that no one has told the “real” story of Obama. I mainly bought the book because I was mad the way the media was treating Corsi, but the book is really interesting. If he were a Republican there would be so much meat for the media to dig into, but...

Read David Horowitz site “Discover the Networks”. He writes about Obama, Saul Alinsky, et.al. Even Wikipedia has Obama links when you go to Saul Alinsky. Alinsky “community activist” was also the subject of Hillary's thesis, with his input.

Well Buckley once wrote that liberals love the masses but just can’t stand one person. His bro is sort of like the Clinton duo’s lost family members. Unfortunately, many Americans have this ‘lost’ family member or members trial.
