Barack Obama's father: Bigamist, drunk and wife-beater, The Other Barack Obama
Daily Mail ^ | 8/12/2011 | Ian Birrell

Shortly after being elected first black president of Harvard Law Review, Barack Obama signed a deal to write a memoir of his life. Remarkably literate, given it was written so young, the book revolves around his quest for identity as the child of a white teenage mother and an African father who walked out when he was just two.

Despite titling it Dreams From My Father, the absent parent was little more than a shadow. ‘After a week of my father in the flesh, I had decided that I preferred his more distant image,’ reflected Barack Obama on the short time they spent together in his boyhood.

‘If my father hadn’t exactly disappointed me, he remained something unknown, something volatile and vaguely threatening.’

Well, he is unknown no longer. He has been bought to life in a compelling biography by American journalist Sally H. Jacobs. And what a vile man he turns out to have been: a drunken, wife-beating, bribe-taking bigamist of extreme arrogance, who spent much of his life propping up bars while bemoaning his fate and running down rival

[...]the bar-room bore ended up borrowing from friends as funds ran out. Some would avoid him rather than listen to the bitter rants.

As my father used to say, looks like the apple didn't fall too far from the tree.

"He married four times" That's not a bigamist.

I wonder if Barack’s daddy said, “If I have a son, he’s going to be just like me.”

Of course, I can’t see how that little round headed incredibly dark black guy could father Barack. Had to be someone else.

After calling him a loser then they act as though he accomplished a great thing after all by fathering Barack II. If he is indeed the father (which I doubt) then I would say that is the WORST thing he did on this Earth.

Obama doesn’t like white people, but it was white folks who raised him, and a white grandmother who left him $500,000.

His father wasn’t much, and his Mother—— Well —she wasn’t much better.

No wonder Obama hates the world.

But one became leader of the free world, the other ended up a loser

Wrong. They both ended up losers.

Written so young?

The author was 51 years old when the book was written.

"As my father used to say, looks like the apple didn't fall too far from the tree."

That was my first thought when I read the article. Obama Sr. is described as being arrogant, a fantasist prone to self-aggrandizing stories, and condescending to others, demanding to be called Dr. Obama despite his being kicked out of Harvard. So many of the same traits exhibited by Bambi, Jr. And I see Aunt Zeituni's got her half-brother's whining and self-pitying down pat.
