Sen. Barack Obama has a problem. And it lives in a hut.
His name is George Hussein Onyango Obama, and he is the 26-year-old half brother of Mr. Obama, the multimillionaire autobiographer who neglected to write that his paternal sibling lives on less than a dollar a month in the outer slums of Nairobi, Kenya.
They have met twice.
Unearthed by Italian Vanity Fair and virtually ignored by the American press, the inconvenient George Obama could emerge as a compelling character in the freshman senator's carefully edited road-to-the-White-House narrative - especially now that his campaign has unleashed a personal attack on Sen. John McCain's station in life.
The Obama hit job on Mr. McCain seizes on his clumsiness in answering a reporter's question about how many houses he and his wife, Cindy, own. "I think - I'll have my staff get to you," Mr. McCain fumbled. In a well-funded nationally televised ad spot titled "Seven," Mr. Obama's messenger twice repeats the correct answer as the words on the screen reinforce the meme of class warfare.
"Seven. Worth $13 million."
The Sunday morning shows parroted Mr. Obama's shocking discovery that the McCain family is well-off. Smarting Obamaniacs campaigning for their messiah are now scripted to ask voters in battleground states how many houses they own and participate in an official campaign contest, "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire: McCain Edition." Winners receive hope, change and fist bumps - spoils of the "new kind of politics."

Obama was the sponsor of the Global Poverty act so that he could have our village supporting George over in Kenya.
If you have not read about the Global poverty act you must google it and see it for yourself.
If Liz was smart, Edwards will have an opening for spouse soon. He can mail order for George and have a old fashioned California wedding.
I’m sure Barry could find room in his Rezko financed mansion to fit in brother George Hussein Onyango.
Amazing isn’t it?
Have to make sure you see this video.
Be back in a second.

But it’s the white mans fault!
Re his brother living in abject poverty:
Spread it all over.
BTW, these kinds of countries have LOW “carbon footprints” - things to look forward to!
Also he's sagging in polls. Even the dumbest Demoncrat appears to be catching on.
No brother of mine would do without, as long as I am alive. And I have VERY modest means.
I’d like a “Christian” lib to square the push on this issue with “thou shall not covet thy neighbor’s house...”
He'll take care of America the way he takes care of his family
If he takes care of America
the way he takes care of his family,
you too could be living on a dollar a month
"Neobama, you are THE ONE"
I have seen this sort of thing before. A family member makes good but forgets the rest of his brothers and sisters. They are stuck in poverty while the successful one lives in a mansion. It happened to me when my sister married well—lost her marriage, mansions (they had two) Pool, successful businesses (chain of stores) and Sport’s car all due to cocaine. I wish I had 10% of what she spent on powder.
Maybe this is what happened to Obama.
A home run editorial.
A question for Mr. Obama: How many brothers do you have?
