About Obama's 'missing girlfriends'
WND ^ | August 19, 2011 | Jack Cashill

Posted on 08/19/2011 1:07:53 PM PDT by RobinMasters

As WND reported, radio host Rush Limbaugh raised an intriguing question on the air: "Where are all of Obama's former girlfriends?"

In referring to past email inquiries he received on this subject, Limbaugh continued, "They are interesting because those people haven't surfaced. There aren't any ex-girlfriends that have admitted it."

In fact, I wrote about this question in my book, "Deconstructing Obama," and on these pages last year. As the likely source of these rumors, I thought I might clarify them, at least to the degree they can be clarified.

As it happens, Obama inadvertently raised the girlfriend issue himself in his 1995 memoir, "Dreams from My Father." Published when he was 33, "Dreams" documents Obama's all-consuming search for identity.

Whether he dated white women or black women – and what he might have learned from either – matters, but Obama gives the reader very close to nothing.

"Cosby never got the girl on 'I Spy,'" he laments in "Dreams," but in his own retelling, he does not do much better.

Although Obama spent 13 years on the mainland as a single man, on only one occasion in "Dreams" does Obama make any reference to his love life.

In a brief recounting, he tells his half-sister, Auma, that in addition to a white woman he had loved and lost, "There are several black ladies out there who've broken my heart just as good."

Where are 0bama’s friends? Who does he hang around with besides his trainer and Reggie love his personal assistant...or is Reggie also his trainer?

It is just a further illustration of how little is known of him and leads me to wonder who he associated with. Knowing the type of people one hangs around with tells you a lot about a person.

It isn’t the girlfriends in themselves that are important but the degree to which a veil of silence has been drawn over this guy’s life. There is nothing natural there.

The only explanation as to why they were sitting that close would be if the person who took the picture had been sitting next to 0bama and then jumped up to take the picture...or they were passing a joint and needed to be closer.

You’re missing the point. There is NO ONE alive speaking of this man’s past. Why?

Amazing picture! Obama has the sole of his foot aimed squarely at the Muslim fellow seated next to him. That is a shocking act of disregard and disrespect and Zero, having been raised in Indonesia, would have known what he was doing.

It’s the equivalent of giving someone the finger in the Islamic world.

"Straight guys simply don’t sit that close to other guys."

In the back of a C-130 or C-47, I'd be willing to make an exception, but under pretty much any other circumstances, I'm in complete agreement with you.

"Robin Lowman, Emily Marks...both used by the left to attack him.

Yes, the left circulated rumours that W got Robin Lowman pregnant and arranged for her to have an abortion. That was before they sprang a 20 y/o DWI charge the Friday before the election.

We both clicked on it didn’t we, knowing it was a WND story?

Yep they are almost as far out as ronpaul, but the story does cause us to wonder.

I say the fag angle is likely explaination for no GFs and may have been what Rush was hinting.

See my post 78 for my take on it. This would not be a standard usage of ‘eminent’, despite being able to correlate it to a dictionary sense. In this case usage is a more important demarcation, but I’m not up for an argument. If you like ‘eminent’ in this usage, go hog wild.

Yikes! New word! You evidently invented it and cleverly inserted it in my dictionary while I was otherwise occupied. I stand corrected on my correction.

Want to weigh in on Great Googly Moogly?

Usually when someone is elected to the Presidency, old buddies, old girlfriends, old teachers either come out of the woodwork or are searched out and interviewed by media types, for magazine articles or attack pieces or whatever.

No one has ever been interviewed about his/her memories of Barry during his college years and after -it’s as if he just materialized, all hopey changey and community organizing.

Or, there is a lot in his past that has been covered up in an amazingly thorough manner. Many dollars must have changed hands to ensure this empty suit remains empty.


IMHO, Obama was a loner, had virtually no contact with anyone. Mostly just casual acquaintances. Perhaps some repeated dealings with small-time dope dealers. No one who really new him from his past. At each change of residence, no one from his past was in the new location, he was starting out again as a total loner. The only real relationships were with Ayers & Co., who are all in the scam, keeping silent except for chuckling to themselves at having pulled of the biggest scam of all time. So far.

Well, maybe Fahrenheit 9/11 helped Bush win re-election but I’m thinking Fahrenheit 451 would go a long way to stopping Obama from being re-elected.

Have you ever sat that close to another man on a couch? I haven’t.

McCain refrained from attacking Obama personal narrative making it out of bounds for his campaign

Didn't he do that because his background couldn't stand close scrutiny as pertains to meeting/dating one woman while married to another?

It’s ‘immanent’, doofus, not ‘eminent’.

No, I really think it's "eminent."

Immanent means immediately impending.
