Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham was nothing more than the Rachel Corrie of her day, without getting herself killed.
Is it true this “White Woman From Kansas” used to take off her clothes and let others take pictures of her all naked like?
(Why yes. Yes she did!)
Don’t they have a word for girls like that back in Kansas?
(Why yes. They’re called sluts.)
Thanks!
She won a bunch of Gold medals in the Olympics using the alias “Mark Spitz”.
Look it up.
Are Stanley Dunham’s nudie pictures in the book?
Obama’s mother was Maria Skiana
So much brilliance in this family ... I guess we won't be able to see his college transcripts either.
Ick. From a 2007 Chicago Trib article: “At Mercer High School, two teachers — Val Foubert and Jim Wichterman — generated regular parental thunderstorms by teaching their students to challenge societal norms and question all manner of authority. Foubert, who died recently, taught English. His texts were cutting edge: “Atlas Shrugged,” “The Organization Man,” “The Hidden Persuaders,” “1984” and the acerbic writings of H.L. Mencken.
Wichterman taught philosophy. The hallway between the two classes was known as “anarchy alley,” and students pondered the challenging notions of Wichterman’s teachings, including such philosophers as Sartre and Kierkegaard. He also touched the societal third rail of the 1950s: He questioned the existence of God. And he didn’t stop there.
“I had them read ‘The Communist Manifesto,’ and the parents went nuts,” said Wichterman, adding that parents also didn’t want any discussions about “anything to do with sex,” religion and theology. The parental protests were known as “mothers’ marches.”
“The kids started questioning things that their folks thought shouldn’t be questioned — religion, politics, parental authority,” said John Hunt, a classmate. “And a lot of parents didn’t like that, and they tried to get them [Wichterman and Foubert] fired.”
The Dunhams did not join the uproar. Madelyn and Stanley shed their Methodist and Baptist upbringing and began attending Sunday services at the East Shore Unitarian Church in nearby Bellevue.
“In the 1950s, this was sometimes known as ‘the little Red church on the hill,’ “ said Peter Luton, the church’s senior minister, referring to the effects of McCarthyism. Skepticism, the kind that Stanley embraced and passed on to his daughter, was welcomed here.” http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/politics/obama/chi-0703270151mar27-archive,0,2623808.story?page=3
Javanese blacksmithing instructions.
1. Heat something iron over a dung fueled fire.
2. Place said glowing hot item on anvil and beat with a hammer.
There, now we’re ALL experts on Javanese blacksmithing.
“To her son the president, idealism and naïveté were embedded in her.”
That’s not the only thing that was “embedded” in her.
Sounds like Stanley Ann Dunham’s parents wanted a boy. Or the nurse on duty got the name backwards - shoulda been Ann Stanley Dunham. Either way, massive confusion seems to be an inherited trait of that family’s DNA strain.
where’s the part where the left gives her a medal for dumping her kid and taking off?
....I said Bildungsroman in some essential sense Dreams from My Father was fictionalized....
Almost right! It was nearly pure fiction. And obama never wrote it, or anything else of consequence.
obama’s mother was a communist with a strong affinity for muslims. That explains a lot about how obama turned out.
Hey, I wanna read about John Edwards’ momma. Just think, a little, tiny change in one past election, and we’d all be reading it, like it or not.
As for this one - another trashy red diaper baby.
In an affecting passage one colleague, Don Johnston, describes how Dunham felt a little bit wistful or sad that Barack had essentially moved to Chicago and chosen to take on a really strongly identified black identity that had not really been part of who he was when he was growing up. She felt that he was distancing himself from her in a professional choice.
LOL! Blackness as a profession! Barack the Professional Negro!
gag !! hurl !!
Yeah, yeah, wasn't the little tramp noble. Got dumped by her African after he used her as a disposable scum bag, what a surprise...
I'm so tired of all the sad stories about white "baby mommas" getting mistreated by their black "baby daddies" that I'm just losing all my natural sympathy for these poor souls...
Where's the part where she worked with Tax-Cheat Timmah's daddy in Indonesia????
