Obama has obviously become the Michael Jackson of politics, he started out as one thing, he has ended up as something completely different.
Since January (alone), he has thrown numerous people, including his spiritual mentor (Wright), his financial godfather (Rezko), his ideological soulmate (Ayers), his grandmother, and now his biological father under the proverbial bus.
In its new ad unveiled last week, Camp Obama seeks to recreate Obama from the son of Kenyan student, to a corn fed, Kansas farm boy. The ad portrays Obama as a child raised by “a single mom and my grandparents” who taught young Obama “values straight from the Kansas heartland where they grew up.” The ad conviniently omits any mention whatsoever of Barack Obama Sr., Barack Obama Jr’s biological father.
Taking it back to 2004, at the Democratic National Convention, Michael Jackson, Barack Obama while delivering the keynote speech, started off by stating:
“Tonight is a particular honor for me because, let’s face it, my presence on this stage is pretty unlikely. My father was a foreign student, born and raised in a small village in Kenya.”
It is strange that all of a sudden, Barack Sr. has disappeared from his son’s official biography. Wait, wasn’t it the same Obama (jr.) who wrote a best-selling book titled Dreams from my Father
Coming from a man who once wrote a best-selling book entitled Dreams from My Father, the omission is especially striking, and just goes to show that Obama would rewrite even the most intimate details of his personal story just to further his ambition.
For those of you who wish to see the campaign ad in question, here it is…
Papa Obama, the Kenyan, must be turning in his grave.
Exit Question: Do you think Obama is being dishonest in omitting such an important part of his background story?
