In all likelihood back in 2011, the White House press were mistakenly referring to Obama's grandfather, who has the exact same name as the uncle - Onyango Obama:
Two of Obama's relatives have the exact same name (grandfather and uncle), and the staffer obviously didn't realize this at the time.
People are human and sometimes make mistakes.
That's certainly possible. It would include a poor effort on the part of the staffer and the President not knowing the answer had been given or deciding he was okay with it.
Obama is a worthless, filthy, scumbag LIAR that cannot be trusted (PERIOD)...
From your above article:
Quote:
On Thursday, a White House official said the press office had not fully researched the relationship between the president and his uncle before telling the Globe that they had no record of the two meeting. This time, the press office asked the president directly, which they had not done in 2011.
If they looked up Onyango Obama in Obama's autobiograhy "Dreams From My Father", it says the two had never met.
But the book is referring to Obama's grandfather, who has the same name as the uncle. Both are named Onyango Obama.
Someone is confused. First you accuse Republican's of fighting for "big business," and then you explain that Barack Obama cut a deal with Big Pharma to prohibit the USG from negotiating drug prices and to prohibit drug reimportation.
So, who do you hate here? "Big business" Republican's or the President of the United States who personally swooned Billy Tauzen of Big Pharma in order to get his support for Obamacare?
No, I'm not the one confused. Passing a national healthcare bill was exceptionally uphill. Obama had no choice; no one was going to fight for the little people, you know the 45 million Americans without insurance, so deals had to be cut, and sadly it was necessary to deal with the devil, in this case insurance and drug companies. Sort of like being forced to work with the former Soviet Union as an ally in order to defeat the Nazi's, its the lesser of two evils. However, now that there will be National Healthcare, private insurance companies have a bit less power, paving the way for a "single payer" solution. A system in which every American has the same coverage, and the object isn't to make big profit, with health insurance company CEO's making millions in bonuses.
