Well what do you know? ANOTHER reference to Obama and Kenya from 2006. Of course I wouldn't trust the quotes from a Well Known Chicago-Sun's Washington Bureau chief. She is just another Lying Democrat member of the media, and She probably just made them up rather than actually heard them from Obama. Crazy birther woman.

The money quote is:
" Obama's next big international journey will be in 2007r--he's looking at China, India and Indonesia, ``where ironicall I actually have more of a childhood than I do in Kenya.'' "

Kinda blows another hole in your theory that the "Kenya" rumor was all made up by "birthers" just to discredit the guy who won. LUUUCCCYYY! You Got some 'splanin to do!

So in 2006, Obama said he did NOT have a childhood in Kenya, and you interpret that as an admission that he DID have a secret childhood in Kenya? And that doesn't seem like a stretch to you?

Didn't say it was made up by Birthers; I said it was spread by Birthers.

I'm betting you don't see anyone in 2006 spreading the rumor that this was any sort of Kenyan-birth admission by Obama. Or, for that matter, any general 2006-era rumor-mongering about Obama being born in Kenya. The rumor-spreading, I think you'll find, started in 2008.

Yeah...that's not a real Ben Franklin quote, you know. It doesn't quite sound like 18th century Franklin. According to the Yale Book of Quotations, this is a variation of a quote by Thomas Huxley: “The great tragedy of Science — the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact.”

That's some nice irony in using a bad quotation in saying that others are wrong.
