Obama's Bio Grows Even Sketchier
Investor's Business Daily ^ | May 22, 2012 | The Editors

Posted on 05/21/2012 11:25:05 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

The Obama Record: The discovery of the president's false book bio claiming Kenyan birth fits an increasingly disturbing pattern. We've long described Obama as radical, but he's also deceitful.

The mix of these two traits in the Oval Office is toxic. But the Washington media are anything but alarmed, still believing as they do the mythical savior figure they created in 2008.

The other night, MSNBC's Chris Matthews argued on his "Hardball" show that Americans would be wise to re-elect Obama because he's "the candidate we know." He claimed he's a trusted brand who "is who he seems to be."

He went on to describe the president as "a fairly pragmatic progressive" and "tough defender of the country." Therefore, he argued, he's the safer choice vs. GOP foe Mitt Romney, whom Matthews warns is an unknown commodity — "Brand X" — who could turn out to be a nutty puppet of the "radical right."

Of course, Obama isn't at all who he seems to be. And judging from Obama's sinking poll numbers, this is becoming more apparent to the electorate — thanks in part to the new media's revetting of Obama after the old media's half-hearted attempt in 2008.

Voters who don't watch MSNBC are starting to see that the president's public persona is merely a hologram created by media shills like Matthews, who define his identity and ideology and redefine it when facts disrupt the carefully constructed narrative.

The latest fly in the ointment for Team Obama is a promotional bio Obama's book agent put out in 1991. The old copy, dug up last week by Breitbart.com, says he was "born in Kenya." Asked about the mistaken birthplace, the agent claimed it "was nothing more than a fact-checking error."

But that's not just any error....

GREAT post!

This is the "reasonable man" argument. We are right to demand proof of identity because the man has proven deceitful in the past.

E.G. Mr. and Mrs. Obama both claim that they turned to "service to their fellow man" and "left the lucrative practice of the law" out of some eelymosynary instinct. The simple truth of the matter is that both were asked to surrender their law licenses or face bar discipline. In point of fact, one complaint against Mr. Obama was that he had neglected to mention on his bar app that he had been known by other names.

So, who is he?

BTW, If SoS Bennett out there in AZ does not follow through with his grandstanding and remove the man from the AZ ballot, he ought to be horsewhipped on the capitol steps. The guy wants to be governor and he's too stupid to figure out that just doing his job will make him the most famous man in America and Governor of AZ for life?

I don't know about the specifics of the IL bar, but the very fact that he'd lied about previous names would be enough for them to demand that he surrender his license permanently (question about character/ethics) -- not just slap-on-the-wrist-and-pay-the-fee discipline.

Yeah, BO's story is like one of those trompe l'oeil or perspective paintings that looks real as long as you squint and view it from a certain perspective. When you step out of line and see it from another vantage point, you can see the picture makes no sense at all.

How King BOZerO gets away with so much bamboozlements because he had emerged as a darling star of the adoring left is beyond troubling. As for the likes of Chris Matthews amazing that he drinks up Obama’s kool aid as if he’s an obedient cult member.

His Bar App used to be available on line for all to see.

Given what we learned from other sources, here are the potential problem areas:
(1)Did not admit to drug use, as in his "auto" biography.
(2)Denied use of any (!) alias
(3)Neglected to mention traffic violations, specifically failure to pay parking fines.

As you know, within the legal community, this is serious stuff indeed. He was not offered any "slap-on-the-wrist" or "pay-the-fine" type of remedy. He was asked to surrender his license and did so. What was unavailable is the identity of the individual or individuals who brought the false app statements to the attention of the bar.

I actually believe that Michelle might possibly have some chance at reinstatement. After all, apparently all she did to earn her court-ordered suspension and surrender was to believe a client ... ... who committed an insurance fraud... which she claimed was unbeknownst to her. If the harsh truth be told, both Obamas had extremely limited legal experience (She more than he, as Barry apparently handled the sum total of 1 case!) Certainly neither was ever entrusted with any major cases by their firm. Neither was, shall we say, known for their skills?

Mitt Romney, whom Matthews warns is an unknown commodity — "Brand X" — who could turn out to be a nutty puppet of the "radical right."

If only!!! Mitt is nearly as far out in Left field as Obama.

I speaking as a member of the far Right find that Mitt does not impress me as being other than the typical New England squishy Republican.

I'm wondering if the rookie Hussein falsified his college admittance forms to show he was a Kenyan just for the financial goodies. That would be fraud.

When the dims really start delving into Mitt’s past this kind of stuff, vetting Zer0’s work record should be brought up.

Appears to me that about every dim attack on Mitt has backfired, so far.
This work history could be another.
