Stop-Obama

Want to see how easily Obama can lie about something simple, and transform it into a politically advantageous narrative?

Jeff has already written that Obama lies about growing up poor. So consider the following quotes from Obama’s autobiography.

Not only are they outright lies, they are lies Obama consistently applies not only to himself, but to his wife and Jeremiah Wright. He exploits America’s Racial stereotypes about Blacks by using the notion of Poverty for his political advantage.

Yet, Wright has never known poverty or been subject to Jim Crow and segregation. In fact, he was the child of the most progressive Racial atmosphere possible in post War America. Obama distorts his wife’s and his pastor’s background, with the same skill and audacity as his own:

Not that Toot had anticipated her success. Without a college education, she had started out as a secretary to help defray the costs of my unexpected birth. [45]

Blatant Lie, Toot- Obama’s grandmother had a decade of Bank experience prior to Barry even being born! She was a vice-president of a branch in Seattle.

But she had a quick mind and sound judgment, and the capacity for sustained work. Slowly she had risen, playing by the rules, until she reached the threshold where competence didn’t suffice. There she would stay for twenty years, with scarcely a vacation, watching as her male counterparts kept moving up the corporate ladder, playing a bit loose with information passed on between the ninth hole and the ride to the clubhouse, becoming wealthy men. [45]

Blatant Lie, she was the First Female Vice President of Hawaii’s Biggest Bank when Barry reached age 10! This made National Headlines!

For three years I lived with her and Maya in a small apartment a block away from Punahou, my mother’s student grants supporting the three of us.

Obama forgets that the VP of the Bank of Hawaii was footing the $16,675 bill for attending a prestigious Prep-School!? It is a blatant lie that Ann Dunham’s school grants were supporting the three of them. It was his grandparents - who supported him all the way to college!

Talk about lying. And do you see how the lie fits the stereotype, and the political narrative? Do you smell the Axelrod in it all?
