Snopes ^

Posted on 09/03/2008 5:39:45 PM PDT by Lorianne

Currently this photo is circulating on the internet under headings like: Palin machine gun-toting whacko, etc. (note: the gun is a BB gun)

But Snopes took no time at all to identify it as a Photoshopped fake.

Suggestion: Create a thread where everything is merely facts debunking the nonsense being spouted.

I’m surprised that they stooped to right a wrong against a Republican.

They may have. But I saw it on several websites about a week before Snopes discredited it.

I just did some very interesting reading regarding dear old Obama's mama on Snopes.com.

Seems mama was educated at Mercer Island High School in Seattle. Her family was a member of a church that was called "the little red church" (meaning communist). Her teachers at the school were identified communist party members. They taught Marxism at that school and required reading was of Marx. She practiced what she preached. The hall way between her communist teachers was known as "anarchy ally." Both teachers, a Val Foubert and Jim Wichterman were both Frankfurt School styled Marxists, taught a critical theory curriculum to students with taught rejection of societal norms, attacks on Christianity, the traditional family and of course the required Karl Marx readings! She took Russian while living in Hawaii and attending college. There is actually no proof that she and Obama's daddy were married, even though everyone says they were divorced. Thus, does that mean Obama is really a "bastard child", since mama and daddy were not married? Yup.

Obama claims mama was the dominant figure in his life and formative years. Mama was not a conservative from Kansas as Obama trys to pass her off as. She was a known communist sympathizer. Rather she was spending her years in the Seattle coffee shops, running with communist radicals, being taught by known communists, preaching communist crap. IF MAMA IS AND WAS THE DOMINATE FIGURE IN OBAMA'S LIFE, HOW IN THE WORLD CAN ANYONE NOT BELIEVE THAT SHE TAUGHT HIM COMMUNIST LEANING, SOCIALISM, AND ANTI-AMERICAN THEORIES???

Nothing could be more clear, that America is about to elect a devoted Marxists, in the living image of his communist loving mother, who taught him everything she was, how she lived, how she thought, how she acted. It cannot be more clear that Obama is a communist. He was indroctnated by his communist mother to be a communist. The stupids out there better wake up and see what they are about to elect. Before it is way too late.

I think this crap is starting to get under my skin. Here's the letter I wrote him. You decide if you think I'm too agitated.

You really are a socialist piece of s$@# aren't you? Just when I think you and your ilk can't sink any lower, you head for the bottom.If you were anything approaching a real man and said this kind of crap in my presence I'd break your freaking nose. You're a whiny, poor excuse of a man, that can't do any better than write Marxist propaganda for your fellow travelers down at the Constipation. Print media is going out of business after 300 years precisely because of people like you, who are nothing but pus-pustules on the backside of freedom. Too bad you weren't smart enough to enter into a real career. But I guess Journalism and English majors can't get work in a cat house.

My apologies to any fellow Freepers who have an English major. I was simply using both barrels.

I think the more Photoshop astute among us need to start doing a few Biden pics ;)
