President Photoshop?
American Thinker ^ | June 7, 2013 | Bill Schanefelt

Posted on 06/08/2013 4:25:27 PM PDT by Robert Lomax

Two puzzling photos that do not bear close scrutiny were published in 2010 on the mybarackobama.com campaign website, adding further mystery to the man who left surprisingly few documented footprints in the sands of time as he came to adulthood.

Then explain the wonky rock wall.

The whole thing is photoshopped.

Even with a simple zoom at 400, you can see there’s a white blob on her dress right where her arm meets his. There’s also wonky pixels above his upper arm and her chest area on the dress.

Uh-huh.

So, you’re using Yahoo and youtube.com as sources.

There is no credible source on either of those proving that Stanley Armour and Madelyn Payne Dunham were communists.

What is really disappointing, is everything on Yahoo and youtube.com basically refers back to the autobiographies, which are fiction. There is no credible proof that Obama Sr. and Stanley Ann Dunham are the parents of the man serving in the White House as our President, so whether they were communists, or not, doesn’t concern me.

Provide a bona fide source for you claim that Stanley and Madelyn Dunham were communists.

Whatever that stick is in his hand, it shouldn’t be touching the girl in front of him but there’s an indention in her hair as if it were. Even his shadow on his shoulder is much larger than anyone else’s. There’s not one photo of him that looks untouched. The one that is really scary is the toddler one with brother Mark which Mark claims is the dead brother David. The “David” looks exactly like the ones of “Barry” at that age. Interestingly, David’s middle name means the second twin (que the Twilight music).

The “so what” is to create a storyline of a past he didn’t have.

The legs of the bench aren’t facing the same direction. The bench leg under Stanley, you see the right side of the leg. However, the bench leg under Madelyn is angled so that you see the left side. That can’t be unless the concrete legs were attached to the bench wrong.

You are ignoring FOX NEWS and MEDIA MATTERS.

There is no credible source on either of those proving that Stanley Armour and Madelyn Payne Dunham were communists.

Would it be fair to describe them as liberal activists or socialists ?

There is no credible proof that Obama Sr. and Stanley Ann Dunham are the parents of the man serving in the White House as our President,

I'd have to agree.

so whether they were communists, or not, doesn’t concern me.

Which brings up the question, why are you so concerned about the claim they might have been communists?

Or are you just concerned I am making a claim I can't back up ? I posted that as a hypothetical line of thought, and explanation for how Obama came to 'be'. It may not be true.

Why did Stanley Ann run off and leave Barry (if that is his name) behind with Grandma and Grandpa? Why was 'grandma' involved with 'microloans' and are they part of a 'socialist' or 'communist' plan ?

Why did 'grandma' take trips to Indonesia?

Provide a bona fide source for you claim that Stanley and Madelyn Dunham were communists.

The only 'true' bona fide source would be 'grandma' or 'grandpa'. I guess that leaves me in a lurch.

Do you have an explanation for the tangled web they weaved, that Stanley Ann weaved, that Barry himself has weaved ? I wish I knew and HAD complete proof. Until then, you and I are discussing 'theories'. I do appreciate your participating, and your responses, as always.

Based on the assumption that your interest in the communist issue is to find the truth, whatever that may be, I have kept searching.

Samuel ‘Joe the Plumber’ Wurzelbacher says Barack Obama’s parents were communists
http://www.politifact.com/ohio/statements/2012/apr/27/samuel-wurzelbacher/samuel-joe-plumber-wurzelbacher-says-barack-obamas/

When asked for evidence that Obama’s parents were communists, Wurzelbacher’s campaign spokesman Reece Collins supplied a 2007 Chicago Tribune article about Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham. The article stated that Dunham attended a Washington state high school where a teacher asked students to read “The Communist Manifesto” and the school board chairman told the House Un-American Activities Subcommittee that he had been a communist Party member. A classmate of Dunham’s called her “a fellow traveler,” and claimed “We were liberals before we knew what liberals were.”


Harvard University historian James T. Kloppenberg, who wrote a 2010 book on Obama’s intellectual roots called “Reading Obama: Dreams, Hope, and the American Political Tradition,” says he’s confident that Obama’s parents were not communists.

“Obama’s mother was left of center, as was his father,” Kloppenberg wrote in an email. “But I found no evidence to indicate that either of them ever affiliated with any Communist movements.”

Likewise, Cincinnati native David Mendell, a former Chicago Tribune political writer who authored a biography of Obama titled “Obama: From Promise to Power,” also says there’s no evidence to back up Wurzelbacher’s assertion that Obama’s parents were communists.

Son of Marx
http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/02/son_of_marx.html

In truth, Obama is not really the son of any religion. His father was brought up as a Muslim but became an atheist. His mother was a self-proclaimed atheist who attended a leftist Unitarian Universalist church as a young woman. His maternal ancestors, Stanley and Madelyn Dunham, who were not practicing Christians, had multiple ties to the Communist Party USA.

1956: They moved to Mercer Island so that 13-year old Ann could attend the high school that had just opened, Mercer Island was then “a rural, idyllic place,” quiet, and politically conservative. As a suburb, Mercer Island was still in its infancy. The 1950 census counted about 5,000 people, almost all white, but Mercer Island High School was a hotbed of radical indoctrination with ties to the Communist Party. Some parents protested the school’s politics, but not the Dunhams. They had abandoned their conservative religious ties and began attending a Unitarian church which the locals called ‘the little Red church on the hill.’

Mercer Island High School was a hotbed of pro-Marxist radical teachers. John Stenhouse, board member, told the House Un-American Activities Subcommittee that he had been a member of the Communist Party USA and this school has a number of Marxists on its staff. Two teachers at this school, Val Foubert and Jim Wichterman, both Frankfurt School style Marxists, taught a critical theory curriculum to students which included; rejection of societal norms and questioning authority, attacks on Christianity, the traditional family, and assigned readings by Karl Marx. The hallway between Foubert’s and Wichterman classrooms were called ‘anarchy ally.’

Barack Obama: Red Diaper Baby
http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/10/barack_obama_red_diaper_baby_1.html

His grandfather Stanley Armour Dunham arranged Obama’s mentorship by Communist Party member Frank Marshall Davis.

Done bouncing around Kansas, California and Texas in the years after World War Two, Stanley and Madelyn in 1955 picked up and relocated 2,000 miles from Texas to Seattle. The next year they relocated to Mercer Island specifically so their daughter, Obama’s future mother, Stanley Ann Dunham could attend Mercer Island high school.

What was special about Mercer Island High School? The Chicago Tribune explains:

“In 1955, the chairman of the Mercer Island school board, John Stenhouse, testified before the House Un-American Activities Subcommittee that he had been a member of the Communist Party.”

Starting in the 1930s the Communist Party promoted opportunities for ‘inter-racial’ relationships among its members. The Communists could monopolize their social ties due to the intense social pressures created by the Democrats’ system of Jim Crow segregation. The social stigma against what segregationists such as Tennessee Senator Al Gore Sr. called ‘miscegenation’ helped keep people in the orbit of the CPUSA. As future Obama mentor Frank Marshall Davis would explain in his 1968 book “Sex Rebel: Black”, CPUSA recruitment burgeoned in part due to the sexual opportunities the Communists created.

Upon arriving in Honolulu, they became fast friends with Frank Marshall Davis who had been a columnist for the ILWU’s communist-line Honolulu Record newspaper. Davis had at one point chaired the Honolulu Seven defense committee.


Because Smith Street was the closest Hawaii had to a black ghetto, it became a focus of work for the Communist Party in Hawaii. When attempting to lead a hostile CPUSA takeover of the NAACP in the late 1940s, Davis pointed to Smith Street as an example of segregation in Hawaii. And just as Davis described joining the CPUSA in “Sex Rebel: Black”, he also described interracial group sex and voyeurism in the back room of a Smith Street bar he called the “Green Goose”


Obama describes Davis as playing a very intimate role in his life from age 9 to 18. When Barack returned to Honolulu from Indonesia in 1970, grandpa almost immediately took Barack to meet Davis. Davis was to serve as a father figure to the young Obama for much of his youth and adolescence. In light of the Communists’ bizarre focus on Smith Street, Obama’s description of meeting Davis for the first time at age 9 or 10 in 1970 or 1971 takes on new meaning:


In essence, when the young Obama returned from Indonesia, Gramps set about teaching him the CPUSA version of what it meant to be black. That is why Obama was introduced to Davis and that is why gramps took him to Smith Street until Obama finally stopped accepting the initiations.

The Mystery Of Barack Obama Continues
http://www.westernjournalism.com/exclusive-investigative-reports/the-mystery-of-barack-obama-continues/

But we also know that Obama’s mother and grandparents associated with Communist Party leaders such as Frank Marshall Davis, a man who, according to Obama’s book, Dreams from my Father, was his main mentor during much of his Hawaiian boyhood (although Obama tried to disguise his identity in his book). During the Cold War, Davis was named by congressional investigators as a key member of a secretive pro-Soviet networked that existed in Hawaii at that time.

The hand is lower than where it should be based on the arm position, to my eye.

I noticed that as well.

I didn't say anything because I have just gotten to the point where I assume EVERY photo of Obama is edited. Either to take him out or put him in. Whatever it takes to keep up the farce.

Heck, most of the news is fake,why should the photos be any different?

Ghost of Columbia- Part II: Legendary Columbia Professor Never Heard of Obama

http://www.theblaze.com/contributions/ghost-of-columbia-part-ii-legendary-columbia-professor-never-heard-of-obama/

SNIP

But until now, I was the only one publicly voicing my suspicions. That just changed in a big way. Meet Professor Henry Graff, perhaps the most legendary and honored professor ever at Columbia University. He was THE American History and Diplomatic History professor at Columbia for 46 years. And he is more emphatic than yours truly that there are no Obama footprints at Columbia.

I was put on Professor Graff’s trail by another Columbia classmate, skeptical about Obama’s story. He told me that Professor Graff had been the speaker for the Class of ’53 last weekend at Columbia. My friend was watching Graff answer questions from the crowd when he was asked about Obama at Columbia. Graff said, “I have my doubts he ever went here.”

I did some digging and located Graff’s home phone number. I called him yesterday. Now retired, he was delighted to hear from me. He agreed to go on the record about Obama. Unlike Obama, Professor Graff clearly remembered me. He was thrilled to hear from his former student. I was in several of Graff’s classes and he remembered me like it was yesterday. He sounded great- like he hasn’t lost any of his trademark sharpness in 30 years since we last met.

I was honored to learn that this legendary historian has been following my political career for many years. But he had no such cheery things to say about the President. Graff said, “I taught at Columbia for 46 years. I taught every significant American politician that ever studied at Columbia. I know them all. I’m proud of them all. Between American History and Diplomatic History, one way or another, they all had to come through my classes. Not Obama. I never had a student with that name in any of my classes. I never met him, never saw him, never heard of him.”

Even more importantly, Professor Graff knew the other history and political science professors. “None of the other Columbia professors knew him either” said Graff.

Graff concluded our interview by saying, “I’m very upset by the whole story. I am angry when I hear Obama called ‘the first President of the United States from Columbia University.’ I don’t consider him a Columbia student. I have no idea what he did on the Columbia campus. No one knows him.”

Yeah, I know all about that. I’ve been researching BHO2 since early 2008, and I believed it then. But it’s all propaganda backing up the autobiographies that BHO2 did not write.

“Done bouncing around Kansas, California and Texas in the years after World War Two, Stanley and Madelyn in 1955 picked up and relocated 2,000 miles from Texas to Seattle.”

There is a photo of the Dunham family together, Stanley Armour and Madelyn on a sofa and Stanley Ann sitting on an arm of the sofa, leaning up against her father. This girl is maybe 10 or 11 years old in the photo. Such a nice family photo - Stanley Ann is wearing a school uniform that indicates she was attending an exclusive girls school in Beirut, Lebanon. At 10 or 11 years old, that would make it 1952 or 1953 and right after the Lebanese civil war ended.

“...bouncing around Kansas, California, and Texas...” sounds like a cover term to me.
