Well I guess it is possible since he is a raging commie.

It might have been Buchenwald or Dachau; Patton’s Army liberated that area of Germany.

As the saying goes, Obama is close enough for government work.

[philled]

This story just fills me with questions. Questions like:

Did his uncle have to dodge sniper fire?

Does he still have the hat he was given by the CIA agents who met him and told him to liberate the camp?

When will Obambi drive a tank for a photo shoot?

[Right Wing Assault]

but I cannot know what it is to walk into battle like so many of you

Maybe you should talk to an Army recruiter. Maybe they will take you. It's worth a shot.

My grandfather marched in Patton’s army...

I guess his grandfather was bitter.

[i_dont_chat]

Does anyone know the name of Obama’s white grandfather?

That would be the father of his mother, right? (his maternal grandfather)

Would he be the right age to have been in WWII? I thought I saw a photo of Obama’s maternal grandparents, and I think the man was too young. My father was in WWII and he was born in 1916.

I just read the rest, I forgot, yes, it was the Soviets who liberated Auschwitz

Maybe he was going to say THE RED BALL EXPRESS or something since they were predominantly Black Americans...they actually did liberate a camp in Germany IIRC

Is there anything more loathsome than an America-hating Marxist cry baby trying to get credit for relatives who, if still alive, would beat the snot of this guy on general principles?

"My grandfather marched in Patton’s army, but I cannot know what it is to walk into battle like so many of you,” he told a small group of veterans here..."

Just a 'typical' war hero...they all look alike don'tcha know./s

I’m guessing that this is the eeeeeevil White side of the family.

He is going to catch hell for this as Auschwitz is in Poland (Russian 'liberators', not western Germany (USA/UK Liberators:

Recollection of Obama Uncle’s War Service Missing Key Details

So Barak’s family legend says that Uncle Boris Obama spent 6 months in the attic- let’s spend billions on mental health benefits for veterans! Do it for Uncle Boris!

(formerly of the Red Army that liberated Auschwitz)

“My grandfather marched in Patton’s army,

Oh, really??

Name, rank and serial number, please

...or is this just more politician's BS, as usual?

[tobyhill]

Obama, “I had a uncle who was one of the, who was part of the first American troops to go into Auschwitz and liberate the concentration camps and the story in our family is that when he came home, he just went up into the attic and he didn’t leave the house for six months, right. Now obviously something had really affected him deeply but at that time there just weren’t the kinds of facilities to help somebody work through that kind of pain,”

“Obama’s American mother was an only child.”

[weegee]

“Obama also spoke about his uncle, who...” doesn’t really exist unless he served with the Soviet Red Army which liberated Auschwitz.

“My grandfather marched in Patton’s army, but I cannot know what it is to walk into battle like so many of you,”

Zhukov's army maybe.

[Gumdrop]

I wonder if the MSM will report it, since they sure made hay with Hilary’s phony sniper fire story in Bosnia.

Haha! I remember 3 months ago how the Democrats were all laughing about what they thought was their embarrassment of riches - they had two (2)! candidates that everyone in the party loved. Now they are stuck with two BIG liars. ne is a bitter feminist and the other a black power racist, who still has not produced his baptismal record to prove he no longer is a Muslim.
