Maraniss Bio Deepens Obama Birth Mystery
American Thinker ^ | 6/22/12 | Jack Cashill

Posted on 06/21/2012 11:09:30 PM PDT by Nachum

David Maraniss has no use for "birthers." In a recent interview, he dismissed their beliefs as "preposterous" and wonders why they cling to them, since "every fact and document leads in another direction."

Yet the one core belief that has united the birther community -- if there be such a thing -- is that Obama dissembled when he talked at both the 2004 and 2008 Democratic Conventions about his parents' "improbable love" and "abiding faith in the possibilities of this nation."

Birthers have known for years that there was no Obama family, that the couple never lived together, that Obama campaigned on a lie, and that the major media covered for him every step of the way. This, ironically, Maraniss confirms in Barack Obama: The Story, a book that has to be parsed as carefully as the Talmud or Finnegan's Wake to be made sense of. Despite his slam on birthers, the facts herein will come as more of a shock to the Obama faithful than to those who have questioned the official birth narrative.

the Pratt daughter, then an adolescent, "has no memory of the Dunhams' daughter bringing an infant home."

Anyone living there would have remembered a woman coming to live them with a newborn infant, even if for only a week before going off to Seattle.

We know Stanley Ann wasn't living with Obama Sr., because Obama Sr. was not even aware at the end of the August (when he filled out an immigration form) that he had had a new child born that month.

And now we know Stanley Ann wasn't at her parents with her new-born infant.

If she had the baby at a hospital in Honolulu, then after leaving the hospital she would have gone either to her husband's or her parents' place.

But the facts are that she did neither. The first sighting of her with infant is in fact Seattle.

It is not a long drive to Seattle from where little Steven Bernard Dunham was born to Stanley Ann Dunham.

What’s the big deal? Maraniss lied to his biography of O.

You really need to get out more...Mark Davis looks like his father and on one else.

So now Cashill is redefining "birthers" on his own! So far as I can tell, "birthers" were pretty confident that Stanley Ann and Barack Sr. were so much a family that she'd go off to Kenya with him to visit his other family and give birth to their child over there. In that case, "birthers" had a lot more faith in the notion that -- at least at one point -- there was more of an Obama family than others believed.

Yes, still 50 lbs and a beard on Obama JR and you have Davis’s son.

Sure -- in the sense that all fat, bearded Black men look alike.

Sort of like how Obama and Malcolm X and all thin, clean-shaven Black men all look alike.

Family resemblance and lack thereof, documented.

Some comments are just so perplexing in their ambiguity, it’s not worth the effort...is it?

All short men with beards look like Frank Marshall Davis.
All tall, slim, clean shaven men resemble Malik Shabazz
...if you hold a mirror to their a$$
