Barack Obama is, in a nutshell, a product of Affirmative Action preferences who was “educated” in leftist Ivy League institutions that are bastions of groupthink. He seems to have a minimal grasp on history and how it relates to America and vice versa, which is all too typical of his ilk, many of whom have not put in an honest days work and are not in touch with the realities of daily life in America.

Obama doesn't care if he speaks incorrectly about history or former leaders. He knows that the majority of his supporters have no idea what is true, and what is not - and more don't really care. He will use any lie he wants to; and these people will rally around him regardless of any proof given to them later.
The Obamamaniacs are so brainwashed and lack the education (because of our socialist schools and colleges) that they are arrogant when told that Obama said something wrong. It is really sad for our country that so many are stupidly following this man like a bunch of lemmings marching off of a cliff into the sea.

I read an excellent analysis posted on Pat Dollard’s site today, regarding the real issue surrounding Obama’s release of torture memos, his possible motives for allowing prosecutions of former Bush administration personnel, and the ripple effects of doing so. A must read! (This is the first time I’ve tried posting a link. Hope it works, if not, perhaps another freeper with the know-how can post it?) Warning: the comments posted by some of the readers on that site contain foul language. The article is fine, but if offended by foul language, I’d suggest not reading them.

Obamas paternal grandfather was a Catholic who converted to Islam (and changed his name to Barack Obama).
Do you have a source/link for that statement?

You think Obama would have the stones to incinerate anything besides a Marlboro or some freebase?

Obama: Christian, Not Muslim
By Richard Wolffe | NEWSWEEK
July 7-14, 2008 issue
“Barack Obama has never been Muslim and never practiced Islam.” (note their first sentence is an outright lie, he practiced Islam when he attended Koranic studies class, something he wrote about in his own book)
“But rumors about his religion intended to frighten some voters persist, and they mostly return to one point of fact: his name. “Barack” is the candidate’s Kenyan father’s name; Obama’s middle name, “Hussein,” is his grandfather’s name. Hussein embraced Islamafter first converting to Christianity under the name “Johnson.” According to Obama’s memoir, Hussein valued discipline and strength and found Christian forgiveness to be sentimental. Obama has described his father as atheist or agnostic...”
You can search for other references.

Thanks. I knew he was a Christian and I new his name was Johnson at one time. I've had that on my website for over two years.
I was inquiring about the "Catholic" reference.
Barack Obama's grandfather was Hussein Onyango Obama. He was born about 1895 and died in 1979. He worked for the British colonial government and was a prominent and wealthy farmer.
Grandfather lived for a time in Zanzibar, where he converted from Christianity to Islam. He was one of the first Muslim converts in his village.
"For a brief time, he converted, and even changed his name to Johnson. But he could not understand such ideas as mercy towards your enemies, or that this man Jesus could wash away a man's sins."
