...Michelle clearly says: "When we took our trip to Africa and visited his home country, in Kenya..." --not his ancestral home --not his father's home country --"...HIS home country, in Kenya..." -

Definition :Home country

1. the country in which a person was born and usually raised, regardless of the present country of residence and citizenship.

Your point?

True, search is friend, but I believe that remark is more appropriate directed at multiple posts of same article over 24-hour period. There are new viewers and Freepers, so I don’t think it is a bad thing to reintroduce a major story ignored by lapdog media during and ever since the 2008 campaign.

It was numerous African media sources, the Kenyan National Assembly and NPR

Thank you. You just made my point. African media, The Kenyan National Assembly and ESPECIALLY NPR are all sources that would be mocked by birthers if they claimed that Obama was born in Hawaii but cited as sources when they claim the opposite. Birther Logic at its best.

Isn’t there also you-tube video of Moochelle SAYING her husband was born in Kenya? I think she would know...

These RAT bastards will tell any lie at any time for any supposed political gain.

So were they lying then or are they lying now? Or both? Who knows. We just need to get them the hell out of the White House.

*sigh*. This article continues to get re-posted every calendar quarter or so:

Yet nobody ever posts the following Sunday's retraction.

Left’s (sic) face it, Obama is not ‘our own’
By Wallace Kantai

"It is looking increasingly likely that Barrack Obama will be elected in November as Senator of the State of Illinois. The number of prospective voters has increased after his presumptive opponent in the election was felled by accusations of sexual impropriety. Simultaneous with Obama’s rising stature is the increasing desire by Kenyans to identify with him. Typical newspaper headlines and messages flying around the Internet tend to lead with the theme "Kenyan-linked", or "Kenyan-American", or even, erroneously, "Kenyan-born".

People like identifying with winners, especially when they can be linked to them in a direct way. However, Kenyans are mistaken in attempting to claim Mr Barrack Obama as one of their own..."
