Poland has been forced to deny its foreign minister 'joked' that President-Elect Barack Obama's grandparents were cannibals.
Writing in his blog, Mr Czarnecki, an MEP, quoted the foreign minister as saying: "Have you heard that Obama may have a Polish connection? His grandfather ate a Polish missionary."
A spokesman for the Polish foreign office conceded that Mr Sikorski had made the controversial comment, but denied that the foreign minister had intended to insult Mr Obama, whose father was Kenyan.
Donald Tusk, the Polish prime minister, has made no comment on the affair. It appears that Mr Sikorski's position is not under threat despite calls from opposition politicians for an investigation to deter if the foreign minister broke anti-racism laws.
The derogatory comment about Mr Obama's family may also have become common staple in Polish political circles. Wojciech Olejniczak, the leader of Poland's main Left-wing party, the SLD, alleged that he first heard it from Jaroslaw Kaczynski, a Right-wing former prime minister and twin brother of the Polish president, Lech Kaczynski.

The fact that the word JOKE is enclosed in quotes in the Telegraph's headline immediately signals the goal of these "news". The rest of the usual "package v contents" technique is used to make sure the message is not missed. In particular providing the shocking details about the chain leading to the second most possible shocking source for the "joke": a member of the National Assembly of Poland --> polish foreign minister (confirmed by the Foreign Affairs spokesman) failing only one step short of reaching the ultimate source, i.e. --> not the president but his twin brother and "news" not confirmed but "just" not denied.
What horrible agenda is directly implied by this joke? Hint: see the script for another Obama "family" member, his "cousin" Raila Odinga.

Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting. Well, for example, the other day I went downtown and into a shop. I was only there for about 5 minutes, and when I came out, there was a cop writing out a parking ticket. I said to him, ‘Come on, man, how about giving a retired person a break’? He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. I called him a ‘Nazi.’ He glared at me and wrote another ticket for having worn tires. So I called him a ‘doughnut eating Gestapo.’ He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he wrote a third ticket. This went on for about 20 minutes. The more I abused him the more tickets he wrote. Personally, I didn’t care. I came downtown on the bus, and the car that he was putting the tickets on had a bumper sticker that said, ‘Obama in ‘08 .’ I try to have a little fun each day now that I’m retired. It’s important to my health.
No obama jokes permitted - he is messiah. Polish jokes ok though!
We have no record that Obama was ever born so how would anyone even know who his grandparents were? Just wondering...
With all the old Polish jokes in bygone years, it has to leave a mark for a Pole to make jokes about Obama! LOL!
Love it.
Yet another racist European country that likes to make fun of us.
What kind of thin skinned politician did America elect this month?
The Polish people have always been great joke tellers, Mr. Obama had better get used to it for his own sanity. Being lampooned comes with the territory.
ha ha!
I think we're going to have to be VERY careful what we say about this one. He strikes me as an extremely vindictive and mean-spirited person. AND he's very likley to have his own "Civilian Security Force" in another year or so. The color brown could be REALLY popular...
Me either, not even a Polock can tell a racist joke.
Now that’s funny right there.
They actually did find and publish nude photos of Obama’s mother online. My previous links to them have been deleted, but if you google “Stanley Ann Dunham nude” you will find them.
Then the jokes started about them also finding nude photos of his grandmother in National Geographic.
That joke actually did make me laugh out loud! That is really funny...and could be true, too.
Funny. I’m going to make sure my family sees this!
Actually, that cannible joke is funny.
Or if the Polish Foreign Minister REALLY wanted to tick off the Obama-worshipers with an up-to-date joke, he could have said ......
***Did you hear about Obama’s “Polish connection”?
***Yeah, Obama’s cousins just killed a squad of Polish soldiers who were on a ‘peace keeping’ mission in Somalia.
It appears that all of the world’s leaders are going to have to watch what they say from now on about our future U.S. Pres.
I was going to make a remark about a couple of Polish sisters, but decided not to.
