I am sure he didn’t write that book, but unfortunately no-one seems to care.

The fraud is a fraud. What a shocking revelation.

I’m pretty much in agreement that he hasn’t written any original material since his early college years. This whole explanation on how he came to write “Dreams of My Father”...doesn’t fit and sounds entirely bogus.

I think the closer we get to 2012, with the birth certificate issue always looming...this connection back to the Kenyan guy will eventually be questioned. I think the entire discussion on the birth certificate leads into a very different direction...where his mother was already preg before she ever left the Seattle area...and this Kenyan guy was simply some poor sap that got into this game for odd reasons.

Later, to make this entire thing work...because he really didn’t like the Malaysian angle...he went and dropped the Barry Soetoro name/connection. He’s built a entire Kenya legend...on some guy who was simply a student at college and nothing more.

I will predict...sometime by 2020...someone will finally make a comical movie over this entire episode...and people will finally wake and realize the foolish nature of this entire story. They were taken for a grand 5-star ride and never grasped it. I also think the media will get an enormous amount of blame...and whatever dinosaur death exists for newspapers....will eventually come because of this to the nightly news folks.

“...On the neighbor’s mantelpiece, Obama reports seeing “the faded portrait of a woman with heavy eyebrows and a gentle smile.” There are seven references to “eyebrows” in Dreams — heavy ones, bushy ones, wispy ones, and six in Fugitive Days — bushy ones, flaring ones, arched ones, black ones.”

“Who writes about eyebrows? In the lengthy excerpts that I have gathered from a half dozen other contemporary political memoirs — 150,000 words in all — there is no mention of “eyebrows” at all....”

Such evidence could be just an oddity...until one reviews all of the evidence presented. Obama did not write the volume.

Palin can write better than Obambi but does not hide the fact that she will have assistance.

Excellent article. Thanks for posting. Something many of us have long suspected is now revealed.

The Zero is a total empty suit, created by Ayres and fostered by the lib media. He must be defeated in 2012.

Yet another stellar neverdem post.

I can't wait until the New York Times and the Washington Post publish the results of their own investigations.

My response to Obama’s poem:

I am a fig plucker, I pluck figs, I am the best fig plucker, that ever plucked figs.

Say that three times, fast.

The lyrical DemocratThis week two poems by Barack Obama, published in a student magazine when he was 19, came to light. So did the US presidential candidate miss his true calling? Fellow poet Ian McMillan gives his expert verdict...

Pop

Sitting in his seat, a seat broad and broken

In, sprinkled with ashes,

Pop switches channels, takes another

Shot of Seagrams, neat, and asks

What to do with me, a green young man

Who fails to consider the

Flim and flam of the world, since

Things have been easy for me;

I stare hard at his face, a stare

That deflects off his brow;

I’m sure he’s unaware of his

Dark, watery eyes, that

Glance in different directions,

And his slow, unwelcome twitches,

Fail to pass.

I listen, nod,

Listen, open, till I cling to his pale,

Beige T-shirt, yelling,

Yelling in his ears, that hang

With heavy lobes, but he’s still telling

His joke, so I ask why

He’s so unhappy, to which he replies . . .

But I don’t care anymore, cause

He took too damn long, and from

Under my seat, I pull out the

Mirror I’ve been saving; I’m laughing,

Laughing loud, the blood rushing from

his face

To mine, as he grows small,

A spot in my brain, something

That may be squeezed out, like a

Watermelon seed between

Two fingers.

Pop takes another shot, neat,

Points out the same amber

Stain on his shorts that I’ve got on mine,

and

Makes me smell his smell, coming

From me; he switches channels, recites

an old poem

He wrote before his mother died,

Stands, shouts, and asks

For a hug, as I shink*, my

Arms barely reaching around

His thick, oily neck, and his broad back;

‘cause

I see my face, framed within

Pop’s black-framed glasses

And know he’s laughing too. *

(”Shink” may be a typo, but the poem is reproduced as published.)

BARF!

Thank you for this excellent, must read post! Dr. Cashill has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that William Ayers, an Unrepentant Murdering Terrorist, has written “DREAMS FROM MY FATHER,” an alleged autobiography by Barack HUSSEIN Obama (alias: Barry Soetoro). This Fact destroys Obama’s assertion that he did not know Ayers, except in passing. This Fact destroys any allegation of academic honesty on the part of Obama. This Fact proves that Obama plagarizes making him no different than Ward Churchill, Joeseph Biden, nor the list of academic and writing frauds unearthed in the past. This Fact begs the questions of who is Obama and why are his past records including school transcripts, Birth certificates, passport records, theses et al all disappeared? Dr. Cashill is a Great American Patriot, Citizen and Hero for all of his endeavors in defending and protecting Our America! We certainly know now that Barack HUSSEIN Obama is not an American Patriot, nor a Hero! He may still be an American Citizen, we still may hope at least for that.

Why hasnt Chrissie Mathews laughed at Hillary fo using a Ghost Writer for her book.?

Chrissie Mathews is a joke from beginning to end, a bad joke.

Of course we will never prove that Bill Ayres wrote Obma’s book because that would be admitting that Bill was more than just a neighbor in the same community.

Obama is the greatest facade to ever live. A fake fromfront to back. The people who voted for this clown from kenya shouel be ashamed to have been taken in by someone so phony, and to add to that the society matrons are trying to make a silk purse out of his sow’s ear wife.

How else does one drink shots, except neat? That poem was horrible.

Does anyone think Bill or Hillary actually wrote the books for which they were paid $12,000,000 and $8,000,000 advances? It is typical leftist deception just as is the idea that their candidate is always a genius and ours a dunce.

Matthews is a certifiable imbecile who rarely utters an intelligible sentence. However, it is revealing about his sexuality when he admits that seeing Obomba gives him thrills running up and down his legs.

Matthews may be a closeted fruitcake.

The people who voted for this clown from kenya ....

Do we know he's from Kenya? We don't even know where he's from!

God, what a mess the Left has made of our Republic!
