Kenyan-born Obama all set for US Senate (2004)

Kenyan-born US Senate hopeful, Barrack Obama, appeared set to take over the Illinois Senate seat after his main rival, Jack Ryan, dropped out of the race on Friday night amid a furor over lurid sex club allegations.

The allegations that horrified fellow Republicans and caused his once-promising candidacy to implode in four short days have given Obama a clear lead as Republicans struggled to fetch an alternative.

Ryan’s campaign began to crumble on Monday following the release of embarrassing records from his divorce. In the records, his ex-wife, Boston Public actress Jeri Ryan, said her former husband took her to kinky sex clubs in Paris, New York and New Orleans.

"It’s clear to me that a vigorous debate on the issues most likely could not take place if I remain in the race," Ryan, 44, said in a statement. "What would take place, rather, is a brutal, scorched-earth campaign – the kind of campaign that has turned off so many voters, the kind of politics I refuse to play."

Although Ryan disputed the allegations, saying he and his wife went to one ‘avant-garde’ club in Paris and left because they felt uncomfortable, lashed out at the media and said it was "truly outrageous" that the Chicago Tribune got a judge to unseal the records.

The Republican choice will become an instant underdog in the campaign for the seat

I wouldn’t mind if this was re-posted every day. If you don’t want to read it, don’t click on it.

Thanks for the post this is the first time I have seen this.

Remark Amended: And so here we are, a nation impoverished, a culture wrecked, a people enduring immense pain at the hands of an incompetent, narcissistic, socialist homosexual, all because Jack Ryan couldn’t be satisfied with normal sex (with THIS woman).

Worth the repost, given Corsi’s book and the new official white house BC abstract.

Every time Barry/Obama posts a new version, this is a good reminder.

Um, okay..."Kenyan-born Obama" yielded those 14 results.

Actually, the MOST annoying part of this article being reposted is the continued reminder that a Republican's bad behavior (see also the photo above, with the sentiment that I heartily agree with) was perhaps responsible for bringing BHO to power.

[abovethefray]

I can empathize with you on that. However, what I will always remember is the fact that the Chicago Tribune had the divorce records ‘unsealed’ , leading to the golden boy walking away with the election. And now he’s in the White House. Disgusting.

I think it may have been 60 Minutes, but I don’t have a clue how to surch for it, I am sure some Freeper does.

Are you a Bammy fan or just in the juice?

[Tex-Con-Man]

Do you uncritically accept any idiotic rumor posted on the internet?

[LanaTurnerOverdrive]

So, a birth announcement printed in a Hawaiian newspaper means nothing, but an article in the “East African Standard” is the smoking gun? Unhinged birther logic on display.

And your preferred candidate is...????

[opentalk]

It was numerous African media sources, the Kenyan National Assembly and NPR. All referenced Kenyan-born Obama.

Prove Michelle said her husband was born in Kenya...you can’t...because it never happened.

Do you believe he’s Irish? Apparently Ireland considers him a native son.
