DL, I enjoyed your post 156.
Obama only had two stable male influences in his formative years, and they were not either of his “fathers”.
I put the word “fathers” in quotes, because we do not know who his real father is.
His purported biological father was never a physical presence in his life, and his adopted father was not there after he was shipped to the grandparents in Hawaii.
The two male influences were his maternal grandfather, Stanley Dunham, and Frank Marshall Davis, bot unrepentant Communists and haters of America.
As if it was not bad enough to be abandoned by two “fathers”, he was also abandoned by his mother, and for what? For her to chase her dreams of Third World Utopia?
When you stop and think of the mothers you know in real life, who would do such a thing? What is worth not seeing your only child grow up, and being there for them, especially knowing there is no father figure, or worse yet, knowing the father figures available to him are two Communists?
So, Obama has serious abandonment issues, and there is no way this did not scar him.
The whole construct of his supposed life story had to stem from his Kenyan “father”, so he could don the mantle of victimhood and acquire some modicum of minority identification.
His book was called “Dreams from My Father”.
My question has always been: How could you possibly know what they were? He was never there.”
The whole Davis-Jarrett-Chicago connection is no fluke either, but that’s another story.
Unless he really wasn't her son. There is a story going around that Obama is really the offspring of his grandpa Stanley and a Honolulu Hotel Street hooker. Obama even detailed in his book when he was about 10 he used to go to a bar down on Hotel Street to have a soda with his gramps. Some have speculated Stanley took Barry down so that his real mom could see him. Stanley Ann wanted a baby and made him hers when he came home from the hospital. Another interesting thing that supports the claim is Obama's mama enrolled in the University of Washington two weeks after he was born and began classes. Why didn't she stay in Honolulu and enroll at the U of H? Why did she leave Hawaii, her parents, and her husband Barrack Obama Sr. only two weeks after he was born? This stuff might seem farfetched to some, but it makes more sense the more you think about it. It gives some ideas on many of the questions surrounding Obama.
