Barack Obama's great uncle offered some blunt language as to why his nephew is visiting the memorial at the former Buchenwald concentration camp next week during his trip to Europe and the Middle East.
This is a trip that he chose, not because of me I'm sure, but for political reasons, Charles Payne told the German magazine Spiegel. Perhaps his visit also has something to do with improving his standing with (German Chancellor) Angela Merkel. She gave him a hard time during his campaign and also afterwards.

Is this just another example of how the media just decided to let Obama have a free pass because they wanted him as President and didn't want to anything to derail him?
Didn’t I read lately that Uncle Charles died a few days after his last statement?
No wonder the One claims to “honor” your service but has failed to ever “honor” you before he was a candidate
and has FAILED to invite you to go along with him to retrace your WW2 service
(Buraq further exposed as an axxhole. Watch your back Uncle Charlie....)
LOL! That press release hasn’t been released yet- maybe in time for Veteran’s Day
Political purposes here? You betcha! His words; always 'double-edged' and the the bigger Obama smiles; the more profound he makes his 'worry face'. . .the greater the evil this man hides.
And here I thought he was just there to study the layout, pick up a few pointers, see what could be tweaked to work better without the 40 & 8s...
My bad.
Obama had never talked with his uncle about the experience he used in a speech. Of course not, Obama had zero interest in his uncle, but just had heard a story he could use to his benefit. It's always, all about Barack and no one and nothing else.
Payne said. Of course it came out immediately that he was wrong since there are enough people in America who know that Auschwitz is in the East and that the camp was liberated by the Red Army.
Obama understands little about American history. All his affirmative action education never taught him that the Russians drove the Germans from Poland. Most likely he knew neither where Auschwitz was located, nor which nation liberated that death camp. And, out of ignorance, he put his uncle at the most famous camp to spike the story further.
What better place for ZerO to surrender to the Nazis!
Family Loyalty is clearly not a strength with the Obama clan...
Interesting that Der Spiegel carried this but no English language press.

Look out, Uncle Charlie!
Here come da bus! And your nephew is at the wheel!
It's quite clear that 0be is ignorant about much of America, current and past.
Wow..
0be's great Unc needs to buy a clue as to the current situation.
lol. . .we now have only to wait and watch for the news coverge from the Obama Press Corps.
The ulcers contained within the MSM are beginning to bleed,
and the puss has created a systemic system.
