To make it worse, I believe this would have been a - ssshhhh! - WHITE great uncle.
ROTFL.
Wow! In the past 24 hours this story has been posted here on the average of once every 4.54 minutes.
Goober, I like that. It fits.
Would anyone know if this was picked up by Howie Carr or other radio hosts?
I really like Howie the most out of all the radio talk show hosts, he’s a smart man..
> Aides said Tuesday that his grandmother’s brother, Charlie Payne, helped liberate a Buchenwald sub-camp in April 1945 as part of the 89th Infantry Division.
Alright, this should be blood-simple to prove or disprove.
Payne, Charles. 89th Infantry Division. April 1945.
Was he there at Buchenwald, or not? And in what capacity? Believe it or not, the US Military keeps excellent service records: there will be no mistake one way or another.
And I do believe these are a matter of public record now. Does anyone know how to check this out? I’m a foreigner otherwise I’d check it out myself.
There is nothing more despicable than a Valor Thief.
I did a little investigating, and found that the division his great uncle belonged to (the 89th Infantry Division) is nicknamed “The Flying W” - heh, heh, heh... kindof ironic...
...in other news, Dan Quayle is a dummy...
We’ve got to get a good nickname for Obama.
We had flip-flopper for Kerry.
Butt Obama is more like “A Lie a Day”
Any ideas.
Barack is wrong about this, too.
He needs to see the movie, Let there be light
Re “Hussein Obomber can’t look like a complete idiot every day - can he?”
He sure it trying to.
Let’s encourage him in his efforts.
O-bama; O-bama; O-bama!
Maybe there were reasons not at all connected to WWII as to why Obama’s Uncle hid in the attic for six months.
Are you sure his uncle wasn’t in the Red Army? BO certainly sounds like one of their commissars.
Hussein has to go back two generations in his family to find someone who served.
In my family, we have had men serve in every war since my ancestors arrived on American soil in 1895.
One uncle even rode with Black Jack Pershing into Mexico in pursuit of Pancho Villa!
Does that qualify me to be President of the United States?
I'm not so sure about that. "Death camp" in this context refers to vernichtungslager, "annihilation camps." Buchenwald, to my recollection, was one of the arbeitslager, work camps.
Of course there was death in horrible numbers in both types of camps, but only the vernichtungslager were designed for large-scale industrial killing.
Of course, Auschwitz was technically an arbeitslage as well, since the vernichtungslage was down the road a bit at Birkenau, so perhaps on that thin reed Barack can hang his hat.
Not with the his lickspittle lackies in the media running interference for him. Holding my breath for this to be reported in the lamestream media (NOT)
This stuff is really trival.
The overwhelming majority of American voters know that the Russians liberated Auschwitz. Obama is a Harvard-educated presidential candidate yet he does not appear to know even basic facts about the Holocaust. This is another nail to Obama’s coffin.
When I heard of this, my first thought was that he’s trying to make his uncle seem like a victim. I didn’t hear anything about being proud of his uncle’s military service -it’s just that his uncle found the need to retreat to the attic. Of course that’s the lens through which libs will view the world, but can he not find something to be genuinely proud of in his family tree?
The only thing that keeps this clown from being a perfect IDIOT is the simple fact that no one is perfect.
