NEW YORK (AP) - Another Obama relative has a book deal.

A memoir by George Obama, the president's half brother and a resident of Huruma, Kenya, will be published by Simon & Schuster in January 2010. George Obama, 27, shares the same father with his famous, older half sibling, although George and Barack Obama—20 years apart in age—did not grow up together and did not meet as children.

George is the youngest of the senior Obama's seven children and was born six months before his father died.

Looks like Obama got his little brother a book deal.

No more need to send his brother cash.

Wonder how many other George Hussein's scattered across Africa share the same father.

I wonder if Chris Matthews will ridicule Georgie Obama the same way he ridiculed the news of Sarah Palin writing a book. Nah, probably not...

No, he needs some furniture, a desk and a pen........

How clever is this! "O" sets up the mega money deal for his bro............or not. It doesn't really matter.

George stands to move out of his upscale flat into nicer digs simply by signing his name on the autobiographical dotted line. How cool is that?

Great. Another book by an Obama who’s never done anything worth writing about. Can’t wait.

here’s a Page 1 excerpt:

I remember my brother Barak when we were children in Kenya. Back then, our country had what Americans called birth certificates, and the fact that he was born before me in Kenya that our family swore to secrecy that we would burn this accursed birth certificate so he could go to America...wait, scratch that. What do you mean this draft will be published, this is the 2nd draft..”

I don’t think it’s the same brother that gets $2.00 a year.

Is there another brother who makes $2/yr ? I know there is one who makes $20.

Well, I was hoping the starting point was his presence in the hut when Obama was born. . .
