"...that brother s*** still hasn't worked for me"
Correction - Obama should say
YOU are my brother’s keeper, and I’ll tell you how he needs to be kept.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
and if my mother had a son, he’d look like me...
Yes, I work for myself and my family.
We passed the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery. “You’re on your own” means FREE...
It would be nice if this charlatan ever actually read the Bible, much less than trying to understand it...
That’s one of the key differences between a Conservative and a Democrat.
A Conservative would look with compassion upon his family, and would share some amount. Obama could write a check for $50,000 and never notice it; and that same $50,000 would make his brother a very rich man, and set for life in his village.
But, a Democrat clings to their money like a miser - for charity is believed to be the sole domain of Gov’t.
Thus, Obama is fine with hearing about how his brother is sleeping on the ground, fighting for his very life - while he lives a life of luxury and ease. His brother’s poor fortunes are not his responsibility at all; but rather an indicator of a failed Gov’t.
Pathetic excuse for a brother, a human being and an even more pathetic excuse for a leader.

I’m trying to recall that passage from the Gospels where Our Lord tells us to petition Caesar for material assistance.
The closest I can come up with is the dishonest but shrewd steward who makes friends with the Mammon of Inequity.
Dear Gilligan, I AM NOT MY BROTHER’S KEEPER you damn asshat!!
” - - - personal responsibility – those are values. “
Dictator Baby-Doc Barack never takes responsibility for any decision that he makes that turns into failure.
Well, maybe “Algae-Man” Obama is just ahead of his time with his advocacy of GREEN SLIME.
BTW, right now one gallon of gasoline from GREEN SLIME costs only $800 dollars a gallon.
Representatives of the Democratic [sic] party are always very generous with other people’s money.
I wouldn't want to be responsible for the actions of all of my relatives. However, I've occasionally wondered if any modern-day president had a brother (or other close relative) living in a stick hut in a 3rd world country.
Especially a prez as well-to-do as BO.
you just know a few people in his actual family almost choked on their coffee (assuming they could afford it) when they read that (assuming they could read)
“I am my brother’s keeper” is not a western value, and it is certainly not Biblical.
“Am I my brother’s keeper?” is what Cain answered when asked by God where his brother Abel was.
Cain had just murdered Abel.
Silly people! Come on!
He didn’t mean HE would keep his brother. He meant all of US would.
And, he isn't Trayvon’s Daddy, either.
'Hi Barry, my name is Sally Struthers - won't you give your brother just a dollar a day to lift him out of poverty?'
'We'll even send you a card of thanks, with his picture on it'
How could he otherwise say that "he's his brother's keeper" with a straight face?
His "people" know what he means...because they also know...along with everybody else... that he treats his real brother like crap.
2 Thessalonians 3:10: “For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.”
Read the Book. We have a Christian duty to help others of our own accord not put in slavery to do it. You can’t force true charity. Nor does the Bible condone being a bum as welfare allows.
Maybe Queen Moochelle can drop Doggie bags from the plane as she flys bye on one of her multi million dollar taxpayer trips she takes every month?
Eventually a few will drop to the kids place in Kenya and he can have a decent meal. I bet her table scraps are more than he eats in a month.
