A Kenyan health official says President Barack Obama's older half-brother has been hospitalized with stomach pains and is being tested for cholera.

From this:

Photo: Jo-Lou tribal members in Kenya. Obama’s relatives in Kenya are members of a Jo-Lou tribe, often called Lou for short.

Some facts about Obama’s family. His older half-brother, Abongo Obama, has stated that “the black man must liberate himself from the poisoning influences of European culture.” Abongo is a Muslim and a Jo-Lou tribal activist.

Raila Odinga is the head of the Lou tribe that Obama’s father belonged too. When Obama interrupted a New Hampshire campaign event receive a call from Kenya, it was Odinga on the phone. Odinga is currently involved in a tribal war and advocates Islamic Sharia law in Kenya. Odinga claims Barack Obama is his cousin.

I feel better knowing that the socialist in our WHite House cares as much about us as he does about his own brother.

My guess is that the half brother refused to eat the mushrooms, and also declined the trip to Ft. Marcy Park.

No, he will send a basket of DVDs. In NTSC format, of course.

Man, those folks are black!

Obama isn't even half as black as a Jo-Lou.
It would take a lot of creme to turn coffee that black

Wow, I'm impressed.

Odinga claims Barack Obama is his cousin.

I thought this was a fact, can someone clarify?
