— Ace Are we supposed to believe he forgot living with a man?
It would be one thing if he lived with him as a child. But he lived with him as an adult in law school.
The White House claimed Obama had never so much as met the man. They claim, now, that their previous claim was a mistake or something, because they had "researched" the question and had not found any evidence the two had met.
Instead of just asking Obama. Which they now say just occurred to them to do. And they claim it just occurred to them to ask Obama after a witness with no reason to lie (Omar's landlord) came forward to say that Obama had lived with Omar.
President Obama acknowledged on Thursday that he lived with his Kenyan uncle for a brief period in the 1980s while preparing to attend Harvard Law School, contradicting a statement more than a year ago that the White House had no record of the two ever meeting.Their relationship came into question on Tuesday at the deportation hearing of his uncle, Onyango Obama, in Boston immigration court. His uncle had lived in the United States illegally since the 1970s and revealed in testimony for the first time that his famous nephew had stayed at his Cambridge apartment for about three weeks. At the time, Onyango Obama was here illegally and fighting deportation.
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.
Roger Simon says he's not a conspiracy theorist, but he's beginning to wonder about this Enigmatic Elegant Liar named Barack Obama.
Around Obama there is an unprecedented silence, almost a media omertà . So much remains unknown about this man, although we do know, through the debate surrounding David Maraniss’s failed and tentative biography, that the president lied about his personal history on multiple occasions in his autobiography Dreams from My Father.Of course, Bill Ayers — the semi-retired terrorist — has claimed on similarly multiple occasions that he was the true author of Dreams, which would make it a lie about a lie about a lie or something like that. The permutations of this are mindboggling.
Actually let me clear that last claim up, because this has far too much traction on the right: Ayers did not claim he was the true author of Dreams from My Father. He says this, sarcastically, in a bit of rightwing-baiting, because he knows the right suspects him of having authored the book.
See, for example, the below clip, starting at 0:33. He always answers the question in this way.
Now, I happen to think this "conspiracy theory" is true: Bill Ayers is the unacknowledged ghost-writer of Dreams from My Father.
But it's not true that Ayers is "admitting" it. He is sarcastically baiting the right by pretending to admit it.
But in pretending to admit it, he is in fact admitting the truth.
Still, you really can't say he "admitted" it. He is playing around the edges of that, but not actually admitting it.

Much smarter would be to take Obama at face value as the author of the book, and then attack him for its actual contents. Make him live by his own rules.

Lets start this way: what is true about Barack Obama? For example, do we know with any confidence that his name is Barack Obama?
Posted by: Hillary at December 05, 2013 11:00 AM (B5y+v)
I've been saying it all along, the lies we will learn about Obama after he leaves office will stagger us only slightly less than will the fact the media knew it all along.
I'm betting the PLCS was at most a C- at Columbia, and a 50th percentile LSAT, and an affirmative action invite onto the Law Review.
BTW, would someone, somewhere please post what it took to earn the magna cum laude academic honor from Harvard Law in 1991? I've looked and have never been able to find it.
Have any Presidents of the Law Review (as distinct from the Editors) ever not graduated magna cum laude ?

"So much remains unknown about this man, although we do know, through the debate surrounding David MaranissÂ’s failed and tentative biography, that the president lied about his personal history on multiple occasions in his autobiography Dreams from My Father."
We also know that he will lie when the truth would be easier or even more helpful. We can now safely conclude that he lied about the 'plans and doctors' rather then being mistaken. If he tells you that the sky is blue, you better verify it. A large part of the power of the presidency is the 'bully pulpit', the ability of the president to persuade others to follow him. The power of the bully pulpit is based in the office of the presidency, but also in the credibility of the president. And now when Obama needs the bully pulpit more than ever* he has been eroding the one thing he needs to make it work. It is self-destructive behavior on a grand scale and no, do not any one tell him to stop.
*This is the only power of the presidency that he ever seems to work. He can't or won't do the actual retail politics of working Congress as other presidents have. He is just one odd duck all the way around.

I've known a couple of truly pathological liars. They're disturbing to deal with, and I try to avoid them as much as possible.
Its hard to spot them initially. You have to wait until their stories start to conflict or they tell baldfaced lies about something you have specific personal knowledge of.

>> The evidence is circumstantial but strong.
And if you ever did find actual smoking gun evidence, Obama would laugh it off on the Jon Stewart show or something, saying "well, all politicians have ghost authors". End of issue.
>> If it were established Ayers wrote the book, it would not only disprove Obama's alleged status as a "rara avis" and first rate literary genius, but also establish his close connection to Ayers, a man he claims he just "knew from around the neighborhood."
I just don't see how you manage get that through to a low information voter.
I think it's better to just beat him up for the actual contents of the book, something he really can't disavow.
The "composite" people, the provable falsehoods, the anti-American and racist worldview, all that material is there for the taking...

I think it's a HUGE deal. Obama had no significant accomplishments that we know of since he will not release any record of his past, nor will the press dig into it.
Pretty much all we know of him...supposedly...is through his "autobiographies", which he continually bragged about writing himself.
We are finding out they are really merely fictions, but more importantly , he now know actually failed at the one thing there is record of and had to be rescued by Ayers

What's interesting about this stuff is that what Obama is doing here, essentially denying he knew a guy, is EXACTLY what got Alger Hiss convicted of perjury.
Of course, nobody is going to put Barak Obama under oath, but still, it's the same lie.

But after an entire career of lies, the falsehood that finally got through to the low information voters was "if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor, period". Why? Because it's simple, and it matters.
Who ghost-wrote his book is just not on anybody's radar. The public will not care about this.
>> Not everything is for purposes of political messaging. Facts are facts whether politically exploitable or not.
In that case, revisit the issue ten years from now. As I said, I'm sure you're right. But for now, I think we're better served focusing on the lies and corruption which might actually matter to the public.

One day he said something to me that made no sense at all though. Just some throwaway remark about the old Lattice C compiler that anyone who'd actually used it would never have made because it was completely false and ridiculous.
That got my "spidy sense" tingling, so I went and researched all the PhD's ever granted, and the last guy to be awarded one that had this guy's last name (there was only one) was awarded in like the late 1800's.
When I confronted his brother about this, he admitted that his brother was a complete fraud and didn't even have a BA/BS and had lied his way into pretty much everything he ever did.
I had known this dude for a couple of years and he'd conned quite a few tech savvy people by knowing some of the jargon. Sometimes it can take a while for their elaborate web of lies and deceptions to fall apart. A practiced liar always has an explanation for almost everything...

167. Is the fact of Obama's adoption not established conclusively by the 1980 divorce decree between Lolo and Stanley Ann? It states:
“The parties have 1 children below age 18 and 1 chidren above 18
but still dependent on the parties for education.”
Unless Lolo adopted Barry, then the child above 18 in 1980 -- Barry -- would not have been the child of the "parties". He would have been only the child of the plaintiff -- Stanley Ann.

Bill Ayers and Obama walk into a bar. The bartender asks Obama " what can I get for you and your friend?"
Obama looks puzzled and points to Bill Ayers and says " That guy? I've never seen him before in my life"
The bartender says " I just saw you guys hug before you entered the bar. "
Obama looking puzzled again and says " what part of 'I only know this guy as someone who lives in my neighborhood' don't you understand?"
The bartender getting angry says " you just said you never saw him before in your life and now you say you know him as a neighbor"
Obama replied " listen just because someone hosts a fund raiser for you at his house doesn't mean he's a friend"
The bartender incredulous says " now you not only know him but he's given you money and had you to his house. What are you a liar? "
Obama replied " I'm not a liar but you are definitely a racist"

>>I believe he was adopted, but states don't provide information regarding adoptions.
I think his adoption is what has made such a stink about his birth certificate. The State can't admit he was adopted, and they are obligated to produce a birth certificate which is supposed to look like an original.
I know. I'm adopted, and I have two birth certificates.
.
.
.My wife adopted my son from my first marriage 32 years ago when we were married. We have two birth certificates for him. He is only aware of the one with her as the mother, and it is marked certified copy, the other is stamped original with a raised seal. And the State (Mississippi) cant even tell him he is adopted unless they change the law.
I suspect that Hawaii is between a rock and a hard place with regards to Obama and his status.

It doesn't matter if he robbed a bank when he was desperate for money, it doesn't matter if he killed his first wife. It doesn't matter. He is a democrat. He is black. He is president. He is surrounded by an army of loyalists, and another professional army of men with guns who know how to use them, and he has billions and billions of US Dollars on tap to pay lawyers, or bribe judges, or buy off anyone he wants.

It would be like that horrible poem he wrote in school - only much, much longer.
Personally, I think that Ayers had a part in its writing, perhaps a large part. By his own admission, Obama had failed to deliver a manuscript on his first attempt at the book, and had had to return the advance. And, by his own admission, he was having still having trouble with the book. Anyone who's published a book (I've published five of them) will know what it means to be floundering in the middle of a project, with a deadline staring you in the face and not a clue what to do. It's only natural that Obama would turn to his friend Bill, the bestselling author, for help. And it's only natural that Bill, seeing a chance to do some preaching under the byline of Barack Obama (and maybe a cut of the royalties under the table) would help out - and by "help out", I mean "rewrite the MS".
It's all perfectly natural; no conspiracy theories needed. The funny thing is, Obama probably believes he really did write the thing himself; Ayers knows better, but he'll never spill the beans, certainly not to the detested Right. Therein lies the difference between Ayers the cynic and Obama the psychopath.

Yes, it does matter. IF obama's true history is 10% of what many of us believe, then we have given the highest office in the land to a total grifter. We need to know the truth, and if it's as we expect, it needs to be made known. Else we've set a really really bad precedent.

Not only that, but we can beat the living shit out of the organized Left who foisted this fraud on America, for a generation. Nobody will trust "their" candidate again. They were either totally gullible or in on the lies. The Democratic Party will either come apart or reorganize after kicking all these assholes out.

For the time being we, the people, still have the ability to strip him of all the accrutraments of power. For the time being.
Three more years.

I'm not interested in watching vids of Ayers unless it entails a bunch of blunt-smoking gangsta Garden Gnomes chanting "who's yo' Daddy, biyotch" and repeatedly punching Billy Boom-Boom in the nutsack.

the White House never asked preezy if he met his uncle,
and of course Oblowme never saw or heard any mention of him never meeting Uncle Illegaldrunk
so Oblowme couldn't correct the lie for 2 years

Ace is dead wrong about Ayer's demeanor in that clip. There is not a hint of sarcasm in his claim to have written Dreams, and the same seems to be true of the other times he has made this claim, which was also asserted by other Obama administration insiders, as reported in that all-access bio of Obama by that Andersen guy.
Art Moore at WND has for some reason taken to describing it as "ironic" when Ayers offers to split the royalties with anyone who can prove he wrote the book, but far from casting doubt on his admissions of authorship this Ayers trope explains his motivation: he is pissed about not getting any credit or money from the most influential thing he ever wrote, and the most revenue producing. In Moore's actual reporting shows Ayers seems perfectly sincere:
“Did you write ‘Dreams from My Father?’”
“Yes. I wrote that,” Ayers replied. “I’ve written many books for many Hyde Parkers, but that one I wrote. And it didn’t take long. I had a few interviews, and then I wrote it up. It took me about four months.”
Apparently alluding to Cashill’s comparative analysis, Ayers said, “And, I love the nautical imagery, which I also use in ‘Fugitive Days.’”
Ayers paused.
“Now, if you guys can help me prove this,” he said, smiling and eliciting laughter from his interviewers, “I’ll split the royalties with you. … I haven’t gotten a nickel from my effort.”
Without mentioning Cashill’s name, Ayers then referred to “a book comparing phrases from ‘Dreams from My Father.’”
“So, he’s proven it, kind of,” Ayers said of Cashill. “But I’m still not getting any royalty checks.”
