This is NOT a birther thread. We are for the most part a product of our own experience, our surroundings, the people we are around. It is about a man who with limited American experience.

In between rounds of golf, President Barak Hussein Omeba is busy fomenting class war, redistributing wealth, undermining capitalism, inciting racial division, and burying future generations of Americans under colossal mountains of debt.

He lived his formative years living in Indonesia and has traveled the world. He has seen first hand the consequences of socialist and Sharia government.

Obamas mother, a leftist married a communist Muslim, Barack Obama, Sr., whom she admired greatly (and met in a Russian language class). She moved on to Obama's stepfather, Lolo Soetoro, an Indonesian Muslim, whom she divorced when he espoused an appreciation for capitalism and openly rejected communism.

In 1967, Dunham and Obama moved to Jakarta to rejoin Soetoro. The Indonesia-America Friendship Institute–which was subsidized by U.S. government. Stanley Ann sent Obama back to Hawaii to live with his grandparents to get him away from Soetoro's influence. His grandparents, leftists to the core, put him in Punahou School, which was a hotbed of anti-colonialism and anti-Americanism.

You have pretty much summed up what I have read, but you neglected one important detail: His being mentored by communist Frank Marshall Davis.

The man has lived in America for 49 of his 53 years. On what planet is 92% of your life "limited... experience?"

I'm not sure what is most stupid about this opening post; The blinkered prejudice or the bad math.

Obamas speech to Indonesia

America has a stake in an Indonesia that plays its rightful role in shaping the global economy. Gone are the days when seven or eight countries would come together to determine the direction of global markets. That’s why the G20 is now the center of international economic cooperation. Indonesia should lead on the world stage and by example in embracing transparency and accountability.

What could any reasonable person object to in those remarks? Especially when the more honest, unedited version is posted:

Gone are the days when seven or eight countries would come together to determine the direction of global markets. That’s why the G20 is now the center of international economic cooperation, so that emerging economies like Indonesia have a greater voice and also bear greater responsibility for guiding the global economy. And through its leadership of the G20’s anti-corruption group, Indonesia should lead on the world stage and by example in embracing transparency and accountability.
I wonder... how does someone edit out a huge part of the statement, to include critical clauses that completely change the meaning, without even leaving an ellipses?

I'll tell you how: dishonestly.

He`s doing all of those imaginary evil deeds and still finds time to save the auto industry, halt the Bush recession, Kill Bin Laden, topple Gadhafi, double the value of most 401K`s, restore respect for the U.S. worldwide ( nobody throws shoes at the president anymore),etc.

Gosh. A childhood actually helps shapes a childhood. How shocking.



I suspect that the forty years since (spent in America) should then be credited with shaping his adulthood.

Ya think?

LOL. Really? One of the 2 most exclusive private prep schools in Hawaii, founded by missionaries and run by scions of Hawaii's richest families, was a den of Marxism? Give me a break.
