There was a brief media firestorm yesterday when Vanity Fair broke the news that Obama’s famous “New York girlfriend” was a fiction. She appears in his 1995 memoir, Dreams From My Father, described in some detail by her appearance, voice and mannerisms. But a new biography of Obama – with an excerpt published in Vanity Fair – “reveals” that she was actually an amalgam of several different women. Politico immediately ran with “Obama: 'New York girlfriend' was composite” and Drudge headlined with “Obama Admits Fabricating Girlfriend in a Memoir.” Coming hot on the heels of the news that the Pres once ate a dog, his weirdo factor seems to have hit the roof.
Actually, it turns out that Obama always said that his New York squeeze was a fake. Within a couple of hours of the story breaking, journalists pointed out that at the beginning of Dreams From My Father it reads, “For the sake of compression, some of the characters that appear are composites of people, I’ve known, and some events appear out of precise chronology.” Politico was forced to print a humiliating correction and David Graham of The Atlantic went in for the kill: “Politico has served as an unwitting pawn in a game conservative spinmeisters are playing to redefine Obama between now and November … It's much the same as the flap over Obama eating dog, in which a different piece of Dreams From My Father, in which he describes eating canine meat as a boy in Indonesia, was rediscovered. While conservative activists and journalists present these stories while claiming that Obama wasn't properly vetted four years ago, what's actually happening is they're reintroducing facts to the record, this time with a far more negative spin.”

The problem is, though, that the parts he did NOT eat for obvious reasons, catch my drift, he's been feeding US for the last 3 1/2 years.
You got it.
2006.
My mistake - 2004.
So we have a “composite” and Moochelle.
I did a count and came up with ~ 12 “intimate” relationships I had before I got married at 26 and I’m nothing spectacular - well maybe kind of ... ;-)
Several are on facebook and if I became President (or was just running) I know they’d come out of the woodwork somehow.
This does not count some memorable encounters with the gals at a church camp near our house over several summers during high school.
It’d likely be “the best lover I ever had” stuff (;-) but something would come out - 2, 3, 8?
With Obummer - nothing - a composite and Moochie. The man has no past and he’s president of the most powerful country in the world - for the moment at least.
Aside from the complete lack of girlfriends out there, in his much touted autobiography - pre-2008 election - he admits to eating dog and we never heard of it?
This was heavenly prose from the “Won” and we never knew this before two weeks ago? Color me depressed. ;-(
We won't be competing. My WKRP composite was Jan Smithers (a/k/a "Bailey Quarters").
More likely the dog he ate was some guy named Doug.
It seems to me that the Obama campaign and the MSM is trying to paint him as an “Alpha Male” ala Algore. First was the “Only I would have killed Osama” suggesting Romney doesn’t have the balls to do the same thing and now putting out the word that he was some kind of ladies man back in the day. We’re watching him grow a pair right before our eyes! /s/ If he’s not too careful and keeps pressing this issue, the ex-boyfriends (who are still alive) may come forward and mess up his plans.
LOL......that’s a flamer right there, I don’t care who you are.
Interesting post. Thanks.
Where’s the dog on Michelle’s revised food pyramid?
Found this funny parody commercial.

Yes - Obama also ate snake and wanted to eat tiger. Heard that he could take on some of the attributes of a tiger by eating one. Or was that 'Tigger'? It's 'cultural' - guess we shouldn't Pooh-pooh this ...
Ouch!
If Obama did have minority girlfriends before he started dating his wife, are there any pictures on the internet of those girlfriends? Thanks.
Given what we know about Baraq, I'm surprised his 'girlfriend' wasn't inflatable.
I’d be much more interested in they they have to say.
