The joke was on Miriam Goderich. She is the person who edited the text of the bio. She said: “You’re undoubtedly aware of the brouhaha stirred up by Breitbart about the erroneous statement in a client list Acton & Dystel published in 1991 (for circulation within the publishing industry only) that Barack Obama was born in Kenya. This was nothing more than a fact checking error by me — an agency assistant at the time.”

“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. I hope you can communicate to your readers that this was a simple mistake and nothing more.”

A year earlier than that 1991 bio Barack Obama was interviewed by several newspapers including the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Chicago Tribune and the Los Angeles Times when he became President of Volume of the Harvard Law Review. All of those newspaper articles list Hawaii as his birthplace and Kenya as the birthplace of his father.

Whoa, Nero, what’s going on? Do I not accurately recall that you assured the owner, the actual *owner*, of this site that you are a conservative? Yet here you are, giving credence to the most obvious, silly, transparent & stupid lie ever told on behalf of covering Obama’s butt.

What gives? Are you a far left moonbat/Obama-apologist after all?

What is the alternative? An IQ under 80? Anybody else could and did see through that ridiculous lie. Why on earth are you repeating it? Are you, along with the literary agency, working overtime to give Obama cover?
