’ He was raised by a single mother ..”

Ah..did he forget his stepfather Lolo Soetero Subarakah Mangumharjo ?
He had nice things to say about Lolo in Dreams.

” His grandfather went to college because of the GI bill..”

I have “ Dreams from Bill Ayers “ in front of me and have been skimming
and can find nothing about Grandpa going to college.
Grandpa was a furniture salesman and life insurance agent,
a Hawaiian Willy Lomax.
I can’t find anything about college.
I’m sure the media will ask Gibbs for the particulars of Gramp’s
matriculation tomorrow .....
Barry did call Grandpa a liar and a “ typical white revisionist “ on page 21 .
OT-On page 13 Barry claims to be a distant relative of a Union soldier-
named Christopher Columbus Clark
( maybe he thinks he’s
also related to Christopher Columbus ?? ) and that he’s
a cousin to Jefferson Davis and also part Cherokee.
Barry is such a pathological liar that nothing he says can be taken at face value.

Obama’s maternal grandparents were helped by the Rockerfellers and mama was helped through the Ford Foudation. Hard times most people don’t experience.

Is there anything more insufferable when times are tough than some butthole telling you about what a bad time he had?

Yes. When an insufferable butthole never had any actual bad times himself, and he has to gyp the bad times of his wife's dead father.

In his bare feet and a short sleeved shirt and without a coat.

His entire life is one big lie.

Gee whiz. Back in the late 40’s and early 1950’s, my Parents, Brother and I lived in a two room basement apartment in Brooklyn. There was no heat. You had to turn on a burner to heat water to take a bath. There were Rats the size of small cats in the hallways. My Father got $3.00 off the rent for collecting the building tenants trash and putting it out for collection every week. We ate Mayonnaise sandwiches when there was no money for meat. My Mother suffered with lung problems because of the mold and mildew.

My Dad went to trade school with his Brother, they worked as Mechanics and then they opened a Gas Station on Long Island so we could get out of that hell hole. They worked seven days a week to take care of their Families, including my Aunt who went Blind due to Glaucoma in her 20’s.

My Parents always told me that there is always somebody better off than you and there is always someone worse off than you. When I was a teenager complaining about having to work at the Gas Station on Saturdays to get an allowance, my Father told me “nobody owes you a living”, so shut up.
That one piece of advice has followed me all my life.

Boo friggin hoo Obama, life sucks. It sucks worse because you're the President.

When do I get my 747 you Commie punk ass?

“He was raised by a single mother who put herself through school and got up before sunrise to help him with schoolwork.”

And his brother lives in a hut and earns $20 a year.
