Barack Obama's fire-breathing conservative cousin set to run for the U.S. Senate
The Daily Mail ^ | 9-14-13 | David Martosko In Washington

Posted on 09/14/2013 7:43:10 AM PDT by afraidfortherepublic

This is not your typical political dynasty-in-the-making: A second cousin to Barack Obama is considering a run for U.S. Senate, and he's a fire-breathing conservative.

Milton Wolf, whose mother's cousin was also Obama's grandmother, is a Kansas radiologist who writes columns for The Washington Times and produced videos for The Daily Caller last year.

Neither publication is known for its patience with the president, and Wolf fits right in with their politics. He is gauging support among conservative leaders for a primary challenge to Sen. Pat Roberts.

'They say you can't choose your family,' Wolf said in one Daily Caller video, 'but I say you can choose to stop your family from turning America into a second-rate, European-style social welfare state.

'The current Republican establishment has become a mere speed bump on the Democrats' road to a government-run social-welfare state.' Wolf writes in his most recent Timescolumn. 'As President Reagan described the Republicans in Congress in his time, and it's equally true today, "We had rabbits when we needed tigers."'

Dr. Milton Wolf of Wichita, Kansas is related to President Obama, but that's where the connection ends. The two couldn't be more politically polar-opposite

Are you serious? I’ve never heard of him before, and I try to keep up on things.

“The two couldn’t be more politically polar-opposite “

Or intellectually opposite. A physician vs a poorly educated pseudo lawyer community organizer.

That’s what I’m wondering. I would think there would be some family history to which he has access.

The media would never worship a relative who was a conservative.

I wonder if Bambi will campaign for THIS cousin like he did his Kenyan cousin

Just how politically-conservative is the GOP incumbent?

This guy’s mere presence in the news would infuriate barky -— which may be why I’ve never heard of him.
His campaign needs funding!!!!

No I am not serious and yes you have not heard anything from the MSM on this. I should have made the proper tag declaration of "/Sarcasm Off" instead of shortened version of "/S".

“....poorly educated pseudo lawyer community organizer.”

.
We know that he was a community organizer but we know nothing about his alleged education. Where are the records?
