President Obama's high school best friend, who at one time was 'like a brother' to him, has been accused of brutally raping and beating a woman, it emerged today.

Keith Kiyoshi Kakugawa, 54, from Eureka, California, was arrested at his home last Sunday and booked into Humboldt County Jail on suspicion of false imprisonment, sexual penetration by force, oral copulation by force and battery.

The arrest is the latest in a long list of convictions for Kakugawa, who was close friends with the President when they both attended Panahou High School.

Since then, their lives have gone down completely different paths and Kakugawa is said to be so bitter over it, he even threatened to reveal stories from their school days after Obama became president.

'It's a sad tale of how two young boys who were best friends in high school took drastically different paths in their lives,' Kakugawa's father Kenneth told the National Enquirer.

'When Keith started to face hard times, he grew resentful and bitter of Barry's success.

What, calling rape by any other name makes it less than rape? Let’s call a spade a spade.

Do Tell. I try to keep up, how come this is the first I have heard of this fellow? Note to journalists: it is your job to vet candidates, and interviewing best friends is a good place to start.

So what if he “reveals” stories from their school days? His “stories” will be the tree falling in the forest with no one around to hear it. The American press ignored the story of these charges. And so they will also ignore anything he says.

Officially, it never happened.

When Keith started to face hard times, he grew resentful and bitter of Barry's success.

In other words, Keith is a Democrat.

Hey, I had a friend who was busted in DC for possession of guns and explosives. It happens, even to Barry Soetoro. This particular crime was heinous, but I don’t believe it’s a reflection on Barack Hussein Stanley Anne Dunham Whateverhisnamereallyis.

But if he comes near your car do NOT insult him by locking your door. Or clutching a pocketbook when he gets on the elevator with you.
