Obama Campaign Responds to Breitbart 'Kenya' Booklet Story !!

Obama Campaign Responds to Breitbart 'Kenya' Booklet Story
Breitbart Story by John Nolte

It looks like AttackWatch has written a response to the "Born in Kenya" booklet from 1991 !!

It seems a bit vague and leaves questions unanswered !!!

Par for the course since they only are writing to appease a specific targeted group of supporters.

The people who already know The Truth about Obama are unfazed by the dodging rhetoric.

Though it quickly became an Internet punchline, Attack Watch should not be dismissed. Attack Watch is paid for and an extension of Obama for America, which is part of BarackObama.com, the online campaign hub for the White House. That means that the Obama campaign itself has decided to comment on the Breitbart News' exclusive surrounding a 1991 booklet published by President Obama's literary agency that falsely claimed the President was born in Kenya. It's also worth noting that this claim extended to the lit agency's website until 2007, two months after Obama announced his candidacy for president.

What's fascinating about the Obama campaign's response is the many questions it leaves unanswered:

Fact: The Breitbart bloggers chose to ignore the very clear facts that belie their claim.

* The literary agent who put together the 1991 pamphlet in question noted that, “there was never any information given to us by Obama in any of his correspondence or other communications suggesting in any way that he was born in Kenya and not Hawaii.” The mistake in the pamphlet was the result of “nothing more than a fact checking error” by the agent.

* Despite the Breitbart bloggers’ claim that the booklet was an attempt to manipulate some carefully crafted persona, numerous news outlets had already reported the President as Hawaiian-born. A year before the pamphlet’s release in 1991, a New York Times article on Barack Obama’s election to head the Harvard Law Review reported correctly, “Mr. Obama was born in Hawaii.”

As far as that first bullet point, what the Obama camp won't tell you is that Breitbart News made numerous attempts to contact the literary agency without any kind of response. Once the agency finally released a statement, we published it.

Nerves are struck !

Hearts are Pounding !

Adams apples are gullitating and gagging !

Dry heaves ...... !!

Shortness of breath !

Gulp .... Swallow Harder !!!!!

Fact: The Breitbart bloggers chose to ignore the very clear facts that belie their claim.

Fact: Obama sexed up his bio to sell a book because of his own self interest like all those who would become politicians they sell themselves as something they are not.

Obama is a fraud and only the clueless can't see through that BS!.

Hoorah!

For the Fraud in Chief!

Once a Liar always a Liar!

lol

Another glaring obvious "error" may be the reference to Obama Sr. as a "Kenyan Finance Minister"

Was that ever confirmed to be "True" ? ... Hmmm.

I think he may have got a Job in the Kenyan Finance Dept or whatever it was, but I don't think Obama Sr. was ever a "Minister".

Perhaps another "oversight" ? ... Hmmm.


Now where did "they" get THAT info from ? ... Obama Jr. maybe by chance ?

and has anyone questioned Obama's job with "Business International Corp" ?
I think that outfit was a CIA operation at the time ?


All this is listed in the Magic Booklet

It was brought up on an older thread in January by Member Indigo5.

Are we sure Mitt Romney is eligible to be President?

p.s .... you should remember, you posted comments on the thread !

The truth is though I can see why this is a concern there is more major concerns with his presidency
He is DESTROYING the economy

GET HIM OUT Kenyan or American
Also you are alienating your opposition with this argument because they are zombies
I would prefer sticking the to economy, that should be more than sufficient

Yes, Obama has embarrassed all Americans with his failed policies, unending lies, racking up trillions in debt more than every president combined, and just the other day wanting the debt limit raised with no limit..

He sure has embarrassed everyone, maybe even the whole world..

Good catch there BlueState, you are really sharp, I will be watching you

More conservative BS.

In fact, as of Jan. 31, 2012, the rise under Obama had yet to surpass the rise under his predecessor, George W. Bus

I think you missed the point.
I don't interact with you much, but I've noticed that missing the point seems to be a trend with you.

I dislike both Romney and Obama equally, but the circumstances of Romney's birth don't leave as many questions. I, personally, am not a birther which leads me to why you are missing the point. Even if Obama was born in Hawaii he is clearly accepting of the idea that you should lie to further your goals. It is another honorless, unadmireable attribute on a long list of the same.

Even still, if he was born in the lap of the the statued President Lincoln it wouldn't change the fact that he has been a horrible president and bane of the constitution. He has helped eliminate our rights and set Americans up for incarceration without fair trial. He is exactly the president they needed to set up an America that is hostile towards protesters and the coming wave of dissidents.

Funny enough.. if he was born in the lap of Lincolnd at the memorial he would probably think that should be tacked on the end of Lincolns biography.

I have no problem with that, I'm sure we won't see a PR pamphlet claiming Romney was born in England discovered from 20 years, what do you think

reply to post by GogoVicMorrow



exactly, some people deserve autocrats and dictators, it is in their dna to worship

The woman who wrote that came out and said she made a mistake when she out the brief bio together. It's an easy mistake to make, Obama's father was from Kenya, it's natural to assume he was too.

What I don't get is why the birther crowd is so determined to ignore her?

Use your brain- there were dozens of bios, it was 20 years ago, it really defies belief that she can remember this as definitely a "fact checking "error, seriously, it is preposterous

reply to post by frankensence


The same reason this has been around for over 4 years with no factual evidence to back it up at all.

reply to post by frankensence


What you should do is see if her bank account jumped up a few digits with taxpayer money to get her to say something like that. Obama needs to be honest with the people. How much more evidence is needed before gullible people like you can see through the nonsense they spit at you. Im sure if a nuke went off close enough to your house to see the mushroom cloud and the obama admin said it was just a transformer blowing up you would believe it.
