Media Works To Suppress Obama 'Born in Kenya' Bio
Breitbart ^ | May 18, 2012 | Ben Shapiro

Posted on 05/18/2012 7:40:02 PM PDT by Red Steel

While the internet buzzed with Breitbart News’ release of a booklet from President Obama’s literary agency circa 1991 describing him as being “born in Kenya,” the mainstream media still refuses to report the story, or plays defense for Obama.

Never mind that the agency used the “born in Kenya” biography until 2007. Never mind that authors who have worked with the agency state that the agency asks that authors pen their own biographies. Never mind that Obama has routinely padded his biographical details to appeal to particular audiences.

Nothing to see here.

Michael Shear, at the New York Times, was in full defense mode:

“Perhaps the darker side of politics is always close to the surface … the conservative Drudge Report Web site published a headline: “BORN IN KENYA,” based on a three-decade-old promotional booklet for a publisher that included an inaccurate biography of Mr. Obama. It stayed on the site for much of the afternoon. The headline linked to a report at Breitbart news, another conservative site, which suggests that the booklet represents a pattern in which Obama — or the people representing and supporting him — manipulate his public persona.’”

We presented a document. The Times calls that “the darker side of politics.” Absurd. And that was the Times’ only coverage of the story – dismissing Obama’s pattern of biographical manipulation without comment. All the news that’s not fit to print.

How about the Washington Post, the paper that assured us that Mitt Romney’s 50-year-old haircut incidents were news? It trotted out leftist stalwarts and Friends of Media Matters Greg Sargent and Erik Wemple to cover for Obama and his literary agency. Sargent scoffed, “rumor has it the whitey tape will break any minute now.” Wemple’s only comment: “Okay.”

Well, okay, then.

How about the Los Angeles Times,

Did anyone notice that NOT ONE of our numbnut congresscritters picked up on the possibility that Obama could have been born in Kenya, which would make him ineligible to be POTUS?

When we were doing some initial research found that some of the countries in Africa with Dutch heritage like Kenya use the term Afrikan to denote indigenous people, another term for mulattoes and a third for those whose ancestors came from Europe. It's trivial but another indication that the initial birth information came from Kenya.

I thought he’s Constitutionally ineligible anyway, since big daddy Barak never was a US citizen. Thus, he could’ve been born in the Lincoln bedroom and still not be eligible.

Back in the day, we'd call these numbnuts...

What if BHO, Sr. was not Obozo's father at all? I have seen NO EVIDENCE that his mother & father ever lived as husband & wife. What if FMD was in fact his father & BHO, Sr. a paid patsy to supply a father's name for money.

“Barry is listed as a current client of the agent. She has financial incentive to cover this up.”

I seem to remember reading an article within the past few months about Obama screwing over his agent. For the life of me, I can’t remember who wrote it or what website.

With the deluge of new internet postings in the past day about Obama’s literary agent, I can’t find it through searching.

My recollection was that Obama changed agents just as the money started to roll-in, after he became president and how it was unusual and sort of a low class, not-done in the industry, type of thing.

But that the agent who was replaced was not raising a ruckus about it and was still listed as his agent.

"I wasn't born in Kenya, honest.

But I pretended to be, to get into Columbia and Harvard."

(That's my official story and I'm sticking to it, until I evolve further.)

I read the same article, he dumped this agent for Hillary Clinton’s agent as soon as he hit DC. Now why he was still listed as her client is not clear. I do know she has scrubbed the ENTIRE client list on her website. If I can put my tin foil hat on, I would think he reconnected with her as a cover to funnel some hush money. It really is key to find out what their current relationship is ASAP.

Andrew Breitbart left us knowing more than he had time to disclose to us.

What did he know that we need to re-discover, document and publish?

Why are ALL of Obama’s important early documents forged?

Where was Obama during his “Lost Years?”

Why are there so few known Obama childhood friends?

How many of Obama’s childhood buddies are still alive?

Was Obama a FOREIGN student at Occidental, Columbia or Harvard?

Who wrote the checks for Obama’s education?

Where these question that Andrew Beitbart knew some of the answers to?

____________

To tie the above with some speculative food for thought, please indulge me, (but DO ponder the speculations), as I re-post one of my recently updated comments as follows:

A dictator, such as Obama, only has the power that the people give him.

Currently, at least 40 % of polled American voters are gladly willing to give Obama the necessary power to continue his arrogant dictatorship.

About 47 % of American voters pay NO Personal Federal Income Taxes. These voters are the “fair share” voter base for Dictator Obama. We, in the 53 %, then are paying this 47 % to vote for Obama by virtue of us paying taxes for ourselves AND them.

In this manner we are supporting the voters who vote for Obama, and they will vote to do so again in November.

Dictator Obama has designed Obama”care” to become active only AFTER he is to be re-elected, thus enabling THE NINE SUPREMES to delay ruling on the Constitutionality of the dictate of the individual mandate until Obama is once again the Illegal Foreign White House Occupier, (IFWHO).

The purpose of Dictator Baby-Doc Barack is simple: 1.) Regulate; 2.) Control; and 3.) Destroy. By his own count he has already achieved 60 % of his goals, according to the note he says he carries in his pocket.

Obama’s obvious arrogant and deep hatred of America could have only come from what he was taught in his childhood.

Since there are no known networks of childhood friends from Obama’s past, Obama was probably a member of a Marxist sleeper cell funded by wealthy men with a Marxist view of the World.

The lack of credible documents that has NOT been forged requires a long-term, highly skilled and well-funded support group.

Who the key members of Obama’s probable support group and probable sleeper cell were and are is well known to the Interpol, CIA and the FBI.

Will “Citizen Journalists” such as Breitbart Editor Joel Pollack be able to out-spy the latter two US tax-funded spy entities?

BTW, forget about the LAM, (Liberal Agenda Media), as they are saving their notes to write their tell-all Obama books after Obama has SAFELY retired back home in Kenya.

BTW, BTW, to all the doubters of the above speculations: what does your gut tell you?

______________________

The questions we ask
Are simple to say,
One wonders why they
Were not asked,
Back in the Day?

Meanwhile, the drumbeat of Dictator, (in his own mind), Obama grows louder:

regulate —— control —— destroy —— Regulate —— control —— destroy —— REgulate —— control —— destroy —— REGulate —— control —— destroy —— REGU

To be fair, now, the GOP had done a pretty good job of suppressing Bam’s life history and endorsing him.

Tired of this nonsense about where Obama was born or not born.
He is an Anti-American, Anti-Christian, pro homosexual,pro muslim, pro baby killer, asshat, who is destroying America and American society. If that is not enough to get him removed from office then we are getting what we deserve!

You are right.

“Robert B. Barnett, a partner with Williams & Connolly, represents high-profile authors in his practice. The Washington, D.C., lawyer’s clients include Barack Obama, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush.”

I did find this:

http://astuteblogger.blogspot.com/2005/06/hillary-and-barack-perfect-together.html

“After his pretty convention speech in 2004 - (and before he was elected to the Senate)- he unilaterally broke this contract in order to sign with another bigger agent (who he was introduced to by Clinton, they say!). He eventually “settled” with his first agent.”

Even Fox won’t touch it. Last night the late night guys backhanded it with a suggestion he was lying to his publisher, not even coming close to anything else. Sad. Just pathetic.

The Emperor has no clothes.

It is not a new story.

Most of those who know the truth are either too scared to tell it ,making too much money from the lies, or dead.

No...They didn’t even notice that with a foreign father Barack Jr. couldn’t be a natural born citizen and therefore was ineligible to be President. Opps.... that’s still trrue. Will anyone challenge him on Article grounds? Or will they just let him run hoping the Democrat voter fraud won’t overwhelm the legitimate electorate.
