Obama's ex-girlfriends

You need a new schtick. This one isn't even worth mocking, anymore.

 

Look, the book tells a nice story.

The beginning and the end are true. The parts in the middle are made up.

Whatever. It's what passed for memoir when the book contract was awarded to him.

But, it doesn't tell us who he is. And, that's how it was described to us during the '08 campaign. We knew so much about him. We understood his journey!

But, his "journey" was made up for the sake of convenience and a good story.

 

What he said in a book is automatically disproved by ... what someone said in a book?

My pet theory is he told her what he thought she wanted to hear, which men have done since time immemorial.

 

Big parts of the book have been proven false, and are admittedly false.

Girlfriends are composites. Events happened at different times, in different places as described.

His "angry, black" friend, and drug dealer, was only 1/4 black at best. Was 1/2 Japanese, and apparently was not angry, or unable to get a date with a white girl.

If these were minor characters, maybe it wouldn't be a big deal. But, these are people that help lead him to major revelations in his life.

 

I'm curious. When did you read the book?

 

I guess that's fair enough. But even putting aside the memoir, the idea that his background is cloaked in secrecy is absurd on its face. Find the thread where CarltonBanks told us that nobody from Harvard has ever been interviewed about him. I posted about 10-15 passages from "The Bridge," and the guy still wouldn't back down from that charge.

 

And George Washington allegedly cut down a cherry tree in his youth and couldn't lie about it. Guess we should dismiss his accomplishments because it was just a story.

 

I knew Obama was lying when he said his parent's escaped from Castro's Cuba.

 

I knew the Messiah was lying because he is a member of the Democrat Party.

 

BookTV aired a lengthy interview with David Maraniss this past Sunday evening. I was more curious about his means and methods than the book subject.

It was good stuff. BookTV had tagged along with Maraniss and his wife when they went to Kenya for research and ran that portion of the piece inside Q&A with him. Mr. and Mrs. Maraniss videotaped portions of their trek through Kansas gathering information on Obama's maternal ancestors.

Among Maraniss' assertions regarding the POTUS that I didn't know:

His father was an alcoholic, horndog, and abused women. Obama moved a lot as a child. While in Jakarta, he was in a public school and didn't know the language but assimilated himself well.

Maraniss stated that he was withholding the whereabouts of the first girlfriend (Cook?) because she has a dangerous ex-husband lurking out there she's afraid of.

BTW, Maraniss was adamant that Barry was born in Hawaii.

 

It took four years to track down an Obama ex-girlfriend, but the media has already tracked down a Paul Ryan ex -- and she's black!:

Given the latest NBC poll show Obama over Romney among black voters by a 94-0 margin (that's not a typo), maybe this gives the Romney campaign hope it can get one black vote. Unless Ryan broke up with her by leaving a phone message.
