Will the shrine include a replica of the Birthplace—the delivery room in Nairobi?

BTW: Are there any photos of the plaque that reportedly has been put up at the hospital in Nairobi where Soetoro was born?

He looks like Caesar, the previous most powerful writer in history.

Somebody wasn’t even trying with that one. The font is terrible. The whole place looks like that Hollywood school that was used for the movie Summer School.

Yep. Needs some work with the carve/emboss filter — plus some noise and a lot of gamma correction and drop shadow to match the “plaque” to the background. Strictly amateurish...

He'd better hope Bill Ayers never goes public with the original manuscript from 'Dreams'.

According to the National Tourism Policy, Kenya has traditionally been regarded and developed as a coastal (beach) and wildlife safari destination.

Gosh, I wonder if BO and his family will ever vacation there instead of Martha's Vinyard?

Excellent. This one would sell even more than “Dreams of My Father”. Thanks for the post.

Problem is Obama probably funded the shrine with stimulus money.

Remember the radio show that called into the Kenyan (gayto or whatever his name was) who said there is already a shrine where Obama was born.

A dictator needs many of them.

An interesting question. Could be an Indonesian passport.

They only need to publicly insinuate, true or not, that they have it and they will have him by the short hairs. Once they figure this out aid to Pokeystain will double.

I know. I almost believe he is really an alien lifeform. Anal probes and all that.
