Money quote about 40 seconds in:
"We took our trip to Africa and visited his home country in Kenya."
The Obama administration speaks with one voice. Unfortunately, it's the voice of a schizophrenic!

Barack's dad is also called Barack. She did not say my husband or the President. Some of you may not realize that Barack's dad was from Kenya and has the same name as his son. So you might be confused.
ReplyDeleteBirthers are those who insist that President Obama, not his dad, was born in Kenya.
Anonymous: Your comments are totally irrelevant. Go back and read what she said. "We took our trip to Africa and visited his home country in Kenya."
ReplyDeleteGo back and listen to the video.
At 29 seconds, she speaks of her husband as "speaking out". She goes on to say: "Barack has lead by example. When we took our trip to Africa and visited his home country in Kenya."
She is not talking about Barack's father here. She is talking about President Barack Obama, the husband she accompanied to Africa, not Barack's father.
If anyone is "confused" here, anonymous, it's you.
BIrthers never fail to crack me up. They'll grasp at any straw they think supports this loomey conspiracy theory.
ReplyDeletePlus, they fail to offer any proof whatsoever that Obama was born in Kenya, Indonesia, The Phillipines or the moon.
Which makes it all the more strange that Michelle would say such a thing!
ReplyDeleteThe simpleton Birthers along with the Tea baggers are the same whiners that were crying when the McCain/Bailin ticket lost. Now that their yelling and screaming failed to stop the health care debate and the bill from passing they are crying again. Let’s face it the Republicans had eight years to deal with health care, immigration, climate change and financial oversight and governance and they failed. The Republicans are good at starting wars (two in eight years, with fat contracts to friends of Cheney/Bush) but not at winning wars as seen by the continuing line of body bags that keep coming home. Instead of participating in the health care debate of ideas the Republicans party turned inward to their old fashion obstructionist party (and their Confederacy roots). In my opinion the Republican Waterloo loss was caused by the party allowing a small portions (but very loud) of the republican party of “birthers, baggers and blowhards” to take over their party. I will admit that this fringe is very good at playing “Follow the Leader” by listening to their dullard leaders, Beck, Hedgecock, Hannity, O’Reilly, Rush, Savage, Sarah Bailin, Orly Taitz, Victoria Jackson, Michele Bachmann and the rest of the Blowhards and acting as ill programmed robots (they have already acted against doctors that perform abortions). The Birthers and the Tea party crowd think they can scare, intimidate and force others to go along with them by comments like “This time we came unarmed”, let me tell you something not all ex-military join the fringe militia crazies who don’t pay taxes and run around with face paint in the parks playing commando, the majority are mature and understand that the world is more complicated and grey than the black and white that these simpleton make it out to be and that my friend is the point. The world is complicated and presidents like Hamilton, Lincoln, and Roosevelt believed that we should use government a little to increase social mobility, now it’s about dancing around the claim of government is the problem. The sainted Reagan passed the biggest tax increase in American history and as a result federal employment increased, but facts are lost when mired in mysticism and superstition. Although some Republicans are trying to distant themselves from this fringe most of them, having no game plan/ vision for our country, are just going along and fanning the flames. For a party that gave us Abraham Lincoln, it is tragic that the ranks are filled with too many empty suits. But they now claim they have changed, come on, what sucker is going to believe that? All I can say to you is remember Waterloo.
