If you are correct on your height data for SAD (I never thought she was that short) and the photo you posted is unaltered and SAD wasn't standing on a higher platform than Sr. there, you raise a very interesting issue, which adds to the mystery as to who O's biological parents really were:

Two shorter than average biological parents are rather unlikely to produce a 6'1" son. The Obamatons are capable of a lot of fraud, but they can't fool the principles of genetics!

BREED???????? Let a white guy try that.

I'd give the writer the benefit of the doubt here. "Breed" could well be appropriate in this context when you realize that he's employing British usage of the language, which differs in some respects from American usage. But I'm not sure.

...One of the robbers had changed his name to Odinga.

OGINGA ODINGA, the father of RAILA ODINGA, visited Malcom X in Atlanta in 1960. OGINGA was so popular with the african-americans they wrote a SONG ABOUT HIM!

Thanks....

Looking through information on Odinga (education of Sr from years ago. Found the following. Could it have be related to the family picture? I don’t know why I saved it or what it is connected to....


Post-presidency
After his resignation, Suharto retired to a family compound in Central Jakarta, making few public appearances. Efforts to prosecute Suharto have mostly centred around alleged mismanagement of funds, and their force has been blunted due to health concerns. Suharto was never prosecuted.
Investigations Of Wealth
In May 1999, Time Asia estimated Suharto’s family fortune at US billion in cash, shares, corporate assets, real estate, jewelry and fine art. Of this, US billion is reported to have been deposited in an Austrian bank. The family is said to control about 36,000 km² of real estate in Indonesia, including 100,000 m² of prime office space in Jakarta and nearly 40% of the land in East Timor. Suharto was placed highest on Transparency International’s list of corrupt leaders with an alleged misappropriation of between US –35 billion during his 32-year presidency.
Related Legal Cases
In 2002, Suharto’s son Hutomo Mandala Putra, more widely known as Tommy, was sentenced to 15 years jail. He had been convicted of ordering the killing of a judge who had sentenced him to 18 months jail for corruption and illegal weapons possession. In 2006, he was freed on “conditional release.” following reductions in his sentence.
In 2003, Suharto’s half-brother Probosutedjo was tried and convicted for corruption and the loss of million from the Indonesian state. He was sentenced to four years in jail. He later won a reduction of his sentence to two years, initiating a probe by the Indonesian Corruption Eradication Commission into the alleged scandal of the “judicial mafia” which uncovered offers of 0,000 to various judges. Probosutedjo confessed to the scheme in October 2005, leading to the arrest of his lawyers. His full four year term was reinstated. After a brief standoff at a hospital, in which he was reportedly protected by a group of police officers, he was arrested on 30 November 2005.
On 9 July 2007, Indonesian prosecutors filed a civil lawsuit against former President Suharto, to recover state funds 0 m or £219 m, which allegedly disappeared from a scholarship fund, and a further .1 billion in damages.
On 4 September 2007, mediation at the Attorney General’s Office AGO between prosecutors and lawyers for Suharto over the Supersemar foundation civil lawsuit succeeded and thus the trial will have to commence.
On 10 September 2007, Indonesia’s Supreme Court awarded Suharto damages against Time Asia magazine, ordering it to pay him one trillion rupiah 8.59 million. The High Court reversed the judgment of an appellate court and Central Jakarta district court made in 2000 and 2001. Suharto had sued the U.S.-based Time magazine seeking more than $US 27 billion in damages for libel over a 1999 article which reported that he transferred stolen money abroad.
Health Crises
After resigning from the presidency, Suharto was hospitalised repeatedly for stroke, heart, and intestinal problems. His declining health negatively affected the many attempts to prosecute Suharto on charges of corruption and human rights violations, as his lawyers successfully claimed that his condition rendered him unfit for trial. In 2006, Attorney General Abdurrahman announced that a team of twenty doctors would be asked to evaluate Suharto’s health and fitness for trial. One physician, Brigadier General Dr Marjo Subiandono, stated his doubts about by noting that “Suharto has two permanent cerebral defects.” In a later Financial Times report, Attorney General Abdurrahman discussed the re-examination, and called it part of a “last opportunity” to prosecute Suharto criminally. Attorney General Abdurrahman left open the possibility of filing suit against the Suharto estate.”
Death
On 4 January 2008, Suharto was taken to the Pertamina hospital, Jakarta with complications arising from a weak heart, swelling of limbs and stomach, and partial renal failure. His health fluctuated for several weeks but progressively worsened with anaemia and low blood pressure due to heart and kidney complications, internal bleeding, fluid on his lungs, and blood in his feces and urine which caused a haemoglobin drop. On 23 January, Suharto’s health worsened further, as a sepsis infection spread through his body. His family consented to the removal of life support machines, and he died on 27 January at 1:10 p.m.
Suharto’s body was taken from Jakarta to the Giri Bangun mausoleum complex near the Central Java city of Solo. He was buried alongside his late wife in a state military funeral with full honours, with the Kopassus elite forces and KOSTRAD commandos as the honour guard and pallbearers and Commander of Group II Kopassus Surakarta Lt.Colonel Asep Subarkah. In attendance were the incumbent president, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono as “Ceremony Inspector”, and vice-president, government ministers, and armed forces chiefs of staff. Tens of thousands of people lined the streets to see the convoy. Condolences were offered by many regional heads of state, although certain regional leaders such as Helen Clark, the Prime Minister of New Zealand, boycotted the funeral, whereas Indonesia’s President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono declared a week of official mourning.

I’m not sure how Ayers/Dorhn would NOT have been connected to the Brinks Robbery (not sure about participating, but certainly connected by association) because Kathy Boudin went to prison for her part in the Brinks Robbery which is how and why Ayers/Dorhn adopted her son (Chesa Boudin)...

Obama is on record of having visited with his father.

Never happened.

The old drunk killed himself in 1982. Obama's first visit to Africa was 1986.

And the is no "Obama record." All of his records are unavailable to the public, as Obama has them sealed. The only thing the public has ever seen are the counterfeit documents produced by Team Obama.

Oh, and his (Chesa) father was the Iranian marxist David Gilbert.

On October 20, 1981, former Underground member Kathy Boudin and her soon-to-be husband, David Gilbert, were accomplices in the robbery of a Brinks armored car in Nyack, New York. In the course of that heist, one Brinks guard and two Nyack police officers were murdered. Also involved in the robbery was Judith Clark, who had served a prison term for her participation in the ‘Days of Rage.’ Boudin hired attorney Leonard Weinglass, a law partner of her father, to defend her in the case.

Now where was Barack Obama in October, 1981? Why at Columbia College.

And, where was Billy Ayers? Four blocks from Columbia at Bank Street College.

And Bernadine Dohrn worked in a baby boutique where stolen customer ID’s were used to rent trucks used in the series of robberies culminating in the 1981 slaughter in which 9 kids lost their fathers, the youngest of which was six-months.

And Bill Ayers Woods Fund put up the money to bring Obama to Chicago.

Just a series of coincidences. Could happen to anybody.

Aparently he was in Seattle with Martin Luther King Jr at the World’s Fair in Seattle in either late 1961 or early 1962. Maybe the birthdate is what Obama is hiding on his BC because if he was born later, he most certainly could be Obama’s dad.

Take that information..and then think about the history before that.

CIA was very active in trying to overthrow Sukarno. It had been going on for a long time. They even got the White Christmas singer involved in making a porn film purporting to show Sukarno with a woman. That attempt was not successful.

The CIA was involved in the bloody coup -..the one that happened right after Lolo got sent back to the counry...and right after the Indonesian ambassador came back to the country to head up the East West center.

We know that the CIA has been involved with the overthrow of leaders..which makes me wonder what the heck is going on now with some many leaders being ousted. I can’t help but think the CIA is involved in some way.

Remember this coup was about getting rid of Communists. They tortured and killed people for years to uncover Communists.

Ann was a communist sympathizer - at the behest of the CIA (my belief)...and may have been, in fact, a commie sympathizer. What was she doing in Indonesia during all of this.

Also, there was a massacre in the Indonesia area while she was there. East Timor. It was closed off to the outside world.

I bet she knew about it.

The CIA will use anyone they can for whatever purpose they want.

From your link:

Then there were the revelations about Weather Underground co-founder Bill Ayers and his wife Bernadette Dohrn — unrepentant terrorists and communists both — who helped launch Obama’s political career from their home. Ayers, indeed, may well have ghost-written Obama’s memoir Dreams from my Father, creating the impression that Obama was also skilled in writing as well as “community organizing.”

More substantially, there was Antoin “Tony” Rezko, the Syrian born real estate wheeler-dealer and convicted racketeer, who helped Obama raise his first campaign funds and assisted him financially, and even facilitated his home purchases.

There were influential Palestinian scholars and propagandists Rashid Khalidi and Edward Said, colleagues and personal friends of Obama, despite his unconvincing efforts to distance himself from them and squelch his praise for their anti-Israel ideologies.

There was Reverend Jeremiah Wright, Obama’s spiritual mentor, who conducted his marriage, baptized their children, and gave Obama’s campaign manifesto “Audacity of Hope” its title before being distanced (at least for the duration of the campaign) when their close twenty year relationship came to light.

And, of course, there is neighbor Louis Farrakhan, current leader of the Nation of Islam, who recently spoke of Obama as the “Messiah” and as Ken Timmerman confirms, enjoys an “open channel” of communication with him.

Why did all of these important scholars and ideologues, fundraiser and networkers, these millionaires and billionaires – especially from the Arab and Islamic world, and extreme socialist and communist party activists — reach out to help this unknown, undereducated young man, many before Obama was anybody of known importance?

Lucy, I am going to post this on the 1000+ thread about Obama Sr.

Please hear me out on this. I have been doing a bit of research into Odingo who is connected with A)Ayers/Dorhn from the Brinks Robbery AND also from a certain someone who has been living on the run since 1971 in Africa (Tanzania)

Ok, this person is named Pete O'Neal and in this picture (shown below), he looks VERY similar to Obama (as well as Malcolm X and he named his son Malcolm, but I digress...)

So here is Pete... and get this, he is from KANSAS CITY and started the Black Panther Party chapter there. He has been on the run from the law since 1971 (it was all a set up, of course, all their arrests were set up *eye roll*)

Photobucket

Notice how similar his kid looks to a young Obama too...

Photobucket

Here is Pete with Odinga (of the Brinks Robbery with Weather Underground / mother and father of Bill Ayers adopted son)

Photobucket

Still doing some research... just struck me.
