For Barack Obama: Eight Questions [Update]
By Matthew Weaver on August 15, 2008 at 9:52 AM in Barack Obama, Barry Soetoro, Birth Certificate (Barack Obama), Current Affairs, Delegates, Democratic National Convention
By Matthew J. Weaver | The Problem With Obama
While most folks accept that Obama was born in the U.S. of an American mother, it is increasingly suggestive that he may have shared Kenyan citizenship from his father, then when his mother remarried, was adopted and became an Indonesian citizen. In the latter, a school record clearly lists his citizenship as Indonesian. This would seem consistent with his adoption and the family move to Indonesia.
Obama has not addressed this. His offered birth certificate is being questioned by a number of folks who claim it is a forgery. It is suggested that his original birth certificate was sealed and replaced by a new one upon his adoption and move to Indonesia. It is suggested that in addition to his new name, Barry Soetoro, his adopted father and his mother changed his citizenship to Indonesia. Surely there will be records of this somewhere but I’ve yet to see anything beyond the notes about the sealed original birth certificate, the new one, a copy allegedly issued in 2007, an original that Obama wrote he held, and comments about the adoption in 1965 or 1966. I have not seen anything definitive on any of this to show it is anything more than speculation.
A photograph of an Indonesian school record, taken in January 2007 purportedly shows Obama as Barry Soetoro, religion as Islam, and citizenship as Indonesian. I have personally emailed AP and the current host of this image (Daylife) seeking confirmation that this image is legit. I’ve even called the latter but it does not appear that anyone answers the phones and voicemail messages have so far not been returned. I’m very suspicious of this document, even though it shows that it’s been posted for 18 months, it’s discovery now and content is very timely and explosive. Consider too that Daylife management include previous members of Edwards and Kerry’s campaigns, plus the DNC. This document could be a fake to stir up and embarrass those opposing Obama. I have received confirmation from Matthew Lutts at AP at 3:44 p.m. ET that “Yes, the image is legit.”
There are numerous sites now linking to and discussing this document. An early source is so-called TexasDarlin in his/her blog of the same name. [SusanUnPC's Note: It was not the intention of Larry Johnson or me in any way to criticize TexasDarlin's dogged, extensive work on these issues. We know her, and have spoken to her on the telephone. Since I haven't been able to reach Matthew after posting this, I am including this note, and trust he does not object. I find his story to be very worthwhile. He sent it to us late last night, when Larry and I were both exhausted and had too many other matters we were dealing with. We apologize to TexasDarlin for any offense, but we also respect Matthew's considerable research abilities and his superlative writing skills.] As they are anonymous, I distrust what they write. As of this afternoon, though, they do link to an AP article by Nedra Pickler via The Washington Post regarding the school record. The focus there was disputing the labeled religion but not the citizenship. Religion was and for some is still the hot-button issue. The question of citizenship is far more important and has constitutional and electability implications that make this worthy of revisiting.
Two other sites offer more cautious review of the school record and its implications:
- Change & Experience. Which is also, like TexasDarlin, anonymous, but offers more careful and even balanced discussion of the school record.
- Andy Martin, author of “Obama: The Man Behind the Mask”, offers a cautious analysis of the document and its implications.
This does put the legitimacy of Obama’s candidacy and eligibility to be president in question. I think Obama needs to provide unequivocal answers to a number of questions:
- Are you now a U.S. citizen?
- Have you ever held as a youth or adult, citizenship in another country?
- Did you ever possess or travel using, at least in part, the passport of another country? (E.g., while in Indonesia, visiting Pakistan, Kenya)
- Did you renounce any foreign citizenship, and when, and do you now hold solely U.S. citizenship today?
- Can you confirm or deny your name change as a youth from Barack Hussein Obama II to Barry Soetoro when you were adopted by your step-father?
- Did you legally reclaim your birth name? When and how?
- Why did you not list your adopted name Barry Soetoro on any forms associated with your legal profession or others that ask for any other names you have ever used? Have you now or will you update these records?
- And by the way, did you register with the U.S. Selective Service when you turned 18?
I am sure these questions can be better worded, especially to extract clear yes/no answers, and I am also sure that there are other pertinent questions that might be asked at the same time. I do think that now, or later in the campaign, these questions will be asked again and again and that eventually Obama will be forced to answer. I’d prefer that now so that the Democratic party and delegates to the convention can make an informed choice when they vote for Obama or Clinton as the party nominee.

UPDATE:
I just want to add a clarification to my post. In referencing TexasDarlin and noting his/her anonymity, I meant no disrespect, nor did I dispute what they have written. (For the record, I have also written comments in the past at TexasDarlin site directly.) My point is simply that I personally question anonymous posts and blogs because they lack a name and face behind them. As we see too much of on the Internet today anybody can post just about anything without the slightest chance of being held accountable. I recognize that, as Susan writes here and as both Larry and her have written previously, they have had contact with TexasDarlin and are comfortable with trusting TexasDarlin is legit. Fine. I was not in anyway suggesting this was in error and, again, no disrepect intended.

BTW, these are all very reasonable questions to be asking of ANY candidate for the office of POTUS.
So Mr. Sotero, what say you?
He says he doesn’t have to answer peon’s questions. He is The One.
You mean pee-ons….like me?
I heard they do kinky stuff at those all-male, drug-fueled hotel parties. Pee-ons…
OHHH!! That calls for this:

Chappelle does R KELLY
Im gonna pixx on you…..
“I’m gonna turn your face into a toilet seat.”
LMAO.
NoBama! When Obama unveiled his tax plan and promised gold would rain down on us, this is what he meant.
But Chapelle was a brilliant comic writer. The big gallon of Poland Springs was hysterical.
Is THAT on The One’s Ipod?
who got peed-on? Better than being peed-off……………..just kiddin’
I have started to call him Barry Soretoes … don’t step on them. He gets upset when you get too close to him ….
Love it Bop!
LOL! He ain’t gellin’..
Guffaw!!!!!
That was witty!!!!
Ha! as in Monty Python’s Holy Grail…I think I feel a song coming on…
(Mr. Sandman…)
(scat “bung, bung, bung, bung……….)
Barry Soretoes, you think you’re a dream (bung, bung, bung, bung)
You think you’re the cutest that you’ve ever seen (bung, bung, bung, bung)
You have two lips like purple and clover (bung, bung, bung, bung)
And you told John that his lonesome nights were over.
Barry Soretoes, now Reille’s so alone
Don’t have nobody to call her own
But you won IA caucus like a dream
Barry Soretoes, you make me scream.
(scat “bung, bung, bung, bung.….)
need help on verse 2 and 3.
2nd verse?
(scat “bung, bung, bung, bung.….)
Barry Soretoes, you think you’re a dream
You think you’re the smartest that you’ve ever seen
Give Hill some Hell and I’m am a quitter
Then in November you will be quite bitter.
Barry Soretoes, you’ll be so alone
Don’t have a country to call your own
Please turn down your magic beam
Barry Soretoes, you will have ended your dream.
OK, here’s a shot at the 3rd and last verse…
Barry Soretoes (male voice: “Yesss?) tell us your scheme
Are you a plant with a Manchurian theme?
Do you have the dark soul of Zbigniew Brezenski
And antigonism like Saul Alinksy?
Barry Soretoes, leave us alone (leave us alone)
Would be so peachy if you would just go home
So please turn off your magic drones
Barry Soretoes, leave us, please, please, please
Barry Soretoes, leave us alone.
(scat “bung, bung, bung, bung….)
Very clever!
And I truly wish Barry Soretoes WOULD LEAVE US ALONE!!
How about
Barry Hissy Soretoes.
Is that a “corn” or are just letting your cell phone do it’s thing?
Uppity Woman:
Why isn’t this information and the eight questions in the mainstream news? Very few people know about this. dorianb
The McCain camp is waiting until after B. Hussein is nominated, then, “Katie bar the door”. Obama must be stopped in Denver with a Roll Call vote.
Super Delegates hold your votes on the first ballot or we’ll all live to regret it. The DNC will be saying: “We should have gone with Hillary” when McCain wins in a landslide.
2nd that!
Mr. Barry Soetoro will take the Fifth Amendment to all your questions.

I am so proud and happy and in love with being an American with you.
Listen. Ear to the ground.

Wow. Uppity just posted a wonderful compilation that sums it all up in her own special way. She’s narrowed it down to 2 Questions.
Grab you tissues, my friends.
The Truth Hurts.
PA News: Ed Rendell just laid it all out on Fox. They’re not with us. They are going to do their best to sway us. Looking at the specific areas they need to work on. Get out your markers and poster boards. Bring your list of questions, loaves and fishes.
No Deal.

this youtube actually dispels any question of the Indonesian school records being a forgery. You will see an investigative journalist actually withthe records.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRnvX7efXFw
For the Kenyan dual citizenship question, please see http://obama.3cdn.net/a74586f9067028c40a_5km6vrqwa.pdf. It clearly shows that dual citizenship is out of the question for Obama.
I don’t know about authenticity of the school enrollment form here. But want to share with you what it is like growing up in different parts of the world. I grew up in India (until age 12) in a Hindu family. I went to a Catholoc school, because that was the best education available. I said the Lord’s prayer, and even attended church a few time, and received mass. And that is what the other 1000 hindus attending this school did. It did not make me a Christian, and I have never claimed to be one.
In the city I gre up in, there was also a large Muslim population. We had muslim friends, we aattended their religious ceremonies, and yes, I have been to a mosque with my friends. Again, that does not make me a muslim.
Finally, the muslim call to prayers is sent out over loudspeakers of the mosque. Because I heard this call to prayer twice a day for many years, I can recite it. And I can also confirm that when some imam’s sing the prayer, it is the most beautiful sound when heard against the evening sunset.
It is difficult for people who grew up in this country to understand how people can be surrounded by folks from other religions, attend and celebrate with friends from other religions, yet not adopt that religion.
I have consistently said that “I am a victim”
These are not the Jakarta records I knew.
Would Jesus have had to submit himself to questions like these?
Yes, Israel had tight records in Jesus’s time. Remember, the reason Jesus was born in Bethlehem was because Joseph and Mary had to travel there to register for a census. Jesus was hounded with many questions by the Pharisees and Saducees while he walked on the earth.
Are you equating Obama with Jesus?? Oh my. Jesus didn’t lie. Obama does every time he opens his mouth.
Obama is more like Osama. Elusive. We don’t know WHERE Osama is and we don’t know who Obama is.
Reportedly Obama and Osama were both in Pakistan around the same time in 1981. If Barry went there, and he claims to be an American citizen then he broke the law. If he went with an Indonesian passport then he was still a citizen of Indonesia at that time. You either did one or the other Barry S.
tzada, just curious…
Are you saying Americans where “illegal” in Pakastan in 1981? How might have he broken the law in that case?
I get the issue of which Passport was used…
If Barry traveled as an adult the meme of him “being just a kid” goes right out the window…
What I want to know is if he ever surrendered his Indonesian passport or if it was ever renewed. Am I correct, from my reading, that Indonesia require a citizen to “checkin” every 3 years?
—–
Slightly of topic; it would be really great if he would change his name back to Barry Soetoro. Then the MSM could finally start spelling Osama Bin Laden correctly instead of ‘Usama’ on the ticker… Obama…Usama…
Thanks.
Lee, are thinking that Obama is Jesus or what? This is not questions to be the Messiah, these are questions pertaining to running our country. They are biblical questions!!
Tsk, tsk. Simply open a copy of the New Testament. The Book of Matthew starts out with a very lengthy and detailed birth record for Yeshua (He disclosed his real name) listing his creds to be considered King of the Jews.
Apparently the standards for messiahs has been lowered since then.
LMAO
oh puke at the thought
I’d be first in line for HELL FIRE if he were the TRUE ONE
Stop! You are killing me…I can’t stop laughing about the “standards.”
Then Howard Dean must be the reincarnation of John the Baptist. Wonder if there is a record where Dean baptized Barrak? OH, WAIT, Dr Wright baptized Barrak and the buzzard came down and shit on Barrak’s head and annointing him as “the one” all the freaks had been looking for.
If Dean is John the Baptist, which of our lovely PUMA’s would care to audition for the role of Cheherazade?
The job description requires that you must be able to hold 15 pounds of dead weight on a platter…
Then John Edwards is Judas
Yeah and Soros is then the Gate Keeper destined to walk the Earth till the return of Christ. That’s why he’s trying to destroy us all. Come to think of it Soros does look like a Roman soldier that could have been the one that delivered the final stab to Christ…Hmmm. Maybe Obama is the Anti-Christ! Oh wait that’s esoteric text on it from the Apocrypha.(OK I was being facetious. Personally I think Obama is too dumb to be the Anti-Christ he gets caught in everything he does and says. He’s just not a very good liar. EX: Took us less than a couple months of listening to him to figure out if he says “I have always/I have consistently” to know the next sentence to follow would be a lie.)
Kanye West would like to remind you that he is down with Obama being compared to God but only Kanye can be compared to Jesus.
Yeah but KANYE/Caine killed his brother..
And what about Kaine for VP? I thought about the implications; this very much becomes a civil rights issue then with shades of Nostradamus.
Jesus was not adopted nor was he running to be President of the US
That depends on your religious beliefs. Most Christians believe Yeshua was adopted by Yusef/Joseph (they believe his true father was Yahweh/Jehovah).
And no, he wasn’t running for POTUS, but he was trying to legitimize himself as King of the Jews which was just as important 2,000 years ago.
And the similarities don’t end there, either. The Obots truly believe Obama would be resurrected if he died and save them from eternal damnation (or at least from ugly older white people).
Gosh there was a bunch of loonies thinking the same thing about Bush. gag…gag…gag
THAT was funny. Ugly older white people. Love it!
No he wouldn’t have been subjected to questions like these, for the same reason that Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy would not be asked these questions, fictional characters can’t answer you.
Head up ass comment. go play in you sandbox.
Head up ass comment. go play in you sandbox.
Did you write that with your ass? That comment made no sense. If you’re going to debate me use some facts, don’t just use name calling. Prove me wrong.
I’m not going to debate you…
you bore the living shit out of me
Now before you get a little woodie and decide to try to hurt my feelings, understand that I do not give a shit about you, your opinions, or the number of friends you had before your dog got depressed and killed himself…
You’re not going to debate me because you know you can’t win, and the inferiority complex you’re suffering from knowing I’m smarter than you has lead you to attempt to insult me. I really feel sorry for people like you, unwilling to open your eyes and look at the real world. You stay in your little conservative christian bubble that protects you from fact and reason. Open your eyes and your mind, free yourself from the mind control.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
Now what will he do, poor Franklin of Trolldom?
He gave you an ORDER, over the internet, with his little keyboard…and you refused to OBEY!!
He’s gonna huff, and he’s gonna puff…but will he blow your house down?
Times like this call for that little icon of a fat guy rolling around on the floor laughing his ass off!
it seems like the obambi campaign is sending the stinkers brigade. new talking points ie show butt and often.
I have not been sent by the Obama campaign. I have never received any kind of talking points either. I started out making a joke and was immediately attacked. Now I’m just trying to get some information on the claims being made here.
A couple of things I learned in another comment thread on another blog far, far away…
BREAKING POLL NEWS: McCain has now taken the lead in 4 crucial states according to the latest Rasmussen survey of likely voters, in: Nevada, Florida, Virginia, and most significantly (for the first time in 7 polls taken) in Colorado. If and when McCain wins those states and can get Ohio, he’s President.
And did you know an anagram for Barack Obama is aka car bomb?
Did you know an anagram for John McCain is Jam Conch In. Do you think he’s into putting seashells in himself? An anagram for George Walker Bush is Herbage Glue Works. Is he a supporter of hemp-based glue? You sir, are ridiculous.
Also, you are using one poll when most people know the best way to get real numbers is to average several polls together. Also, this year there is likely going to be better turn out by democrats and Obama supporting independents because they are more motivated than their conservative counterparts. The evangelicals that gave Bush the last two elections are not as excited about McCain and probably won’t show up to vote in the same kind of numbers. The polls mean nothing, especially this far out from the election.
Course if the polls had your guy way ahead you’d be shouting it from the rooftops.
Actually the polls do have my guy ahead and I’m still saying they’re worthless. Kerry and Gore both lead Bush in early August and lost. Any political scientist could tell you the polls mean nothing this far out.
First, why are you talking about averaging polls when you then say polls don’t matter?? Rasmussen is a conservative poll so it would be a good poll to demonstrate Obos inability to attract red states and the fact that he hasn’t been able to close the deal in what should be a BIG Democratic year.
What do you mean a conservative poll? A poll should not have a bias, if a poll has a bias it is garbage.
All polls have statistical errors and bias, you are naive if you think otherwise.
So you’ll admit they are worthless?
Oh, we know who’s ridiculous at this forum. The Olbermaneque “You Sir” is a dead giveaway!
You clearly enjoy tilting at windmills, like many a loser before you.
No life?
No job?
No girlfriend is pretty much a given.
Your Committed Christian Messiah, Saint Barack, is displeased with your insults against his faith. Undaunted, and demonstrating the effectiveness of the humorectomy you no doubt underwent, you start carping like a child without his Ritalin about anagrams, as if that will somehow mitigate the amusement of the initial comment. Pssst–it doesn’t.
Gee, if polls don’t matter, why are you so CONCERNED about them? Hmmmm?
You’ve trolled poorly, young man. Very poorly indeed.
I’m not concerned with polls, I was stating that they are worthless. I was pointing out the silliness of the anagram. Conservatives can’t win an argument based on facts, they always resort to name calling and when they know they are beat they just say “I’m not talking about it”. I can see by your name that you aren’t a conservative, but you’re using the same tactics.
This nonsense about Barack not being eligible to be president is the same kind of thing GWB did to McCain in 2000, with his whisper campaign about McCain having an illegitimate black baby. You don’t bring forth any evidence supporting your claim, you just make claims. If this paper is authentic, what does that mean? What does it say? If all it is is a piece of paper that says Barry Sotereo on top, it means nothing. Please explain it to me, I really don’t understand it.
I’m not a completely unreasonable person, quite the opposite actually. But I am a skeptic and wild allegations mean nothing to me without something to back them up.
Are you for real? Look. Barky has stated in no uncertain terms that he has never been a muslim, this paper clearly shows his parents did consider him to be so. Even in Barky’s book which a few commenters have linked too, he admits to going to a mosque with his father and he has also admitted to knowing Muslim prayers by heart with proper pronunciation. My parents raised me catholic, so I say, I was raised catholic but I no longer practise. This is what barky should have said instead of saying he has NEVER BEEN A MUSLIM because it makes him look even more like a liar than before. I would have more respect for him had he done that, but when his own half brother claims he is a muslim, both his fathers were muslim and this sort of paperwork come to light, and he says HE HAS NEVER BEEN A MUSLIM, well, only a half wit wouldn’t be at least a little skeptical.
I don’t believe a child can make the decision of what religion they are. Barack’s mother was an atheist, why would she make her son a muslim? His stepfather was a muslim, so it would make sense that he would know some things about islam and visited a mosque. Also, he was living in a predominantly muslim country, but that doesn’t mean he was a muslim. Do you have pictures of him praying to Mecca? I’d like to see a link to an interview with his half-brother who says Barack was a muslim if you could.
Jesus Christ, he was raised a muslim in a very militant muslim country. No one who has children and goes to any church, mosque or temple will fall for your talking point. Period. I’m guessing you don’t go to church. Or at least not very religious. Most Americans are. They see through this.
PS there was a video up NQ which shows Barky’s half brother. And a few great photos of him. Do a search. I’m not your bitchgirl.
strawberry, bid you know that seoBOBO has 99 problems but a bitch ain’t one for them? But Hillary is at least 90 of them.
WC, the place is crawling with trolls and repug moles today. Something tells me there’a something blowing in the wind…
Strawberry, I would never treat you like my “bitchgirl”, I have more respect for women than that. I think that your comment was a perfect example of what is going on with this whole PUMA thing. You seem to think it was a sexist thing, it wasn’t. At least for me and most of the people I know it wasn’t. I think a woman is every bit as capable as a man of running the country. Look at Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor, she is doing an amazing job running her country. In some ways I even think a woman could be a better leader as women are more compassionate and tend to care more for their fellow citizens.
I voted for Barack Obama because I feel that he has a plan that will lead this country in a new, better, direction. If Barack were not in this race, my vote likely would have gone to Hillary (Bill Richardson would have been a distant second). Barack Obama is the candidate who’s policies and vision of the future of this country were most similar to my own. He’s not perfect, I’ll admit that. I don’t think he’s a messiah, but I think he is a very intelligent man who wants to do what he thinks is best for this country.
I will look up the video and watch it. Thank you for telling me about it.
I found one small problem with your claim that Barack’s half-brother said that Barack was a muslim, he didn’t.
Jake Tapper, ABC News senior national correspondent, commenting on the recording in his blog, observes that “nowhere in there does Malik expressly say anything about Obama having a Muslim background. And nowhere does he ‘confirm’ anything about Obama having a Muslim background. Malik refers to Obama having a ‘connection’ to something, perhaps Islam, which could clearly be a reference to Obama’s father.”
The claim was due to a poor quote that changed the context of what was said. I read an article retracting the allegations here:
http://web.israelinsider.com/Articles/Politics/12918.htm
Is that the same half-brother? I couldn’t find the video on this site, I’ll look again.
But this is not a “whisper campaign.” Your premise is bullshit. Rather like your candidate.
This is ASK a reasonable question, and get STONEWALLED in response.
And not just one question, but many.
How hard is it to clear this shit up? Not hard at all–unless you’ve something to hide.
The man is a liar. He gets caught in lies, and then plays the “misstated” game. He lies down with Rezko dogs. He’s a crook.
We don’t like him. Get that through your head.
Why are you here?
You’re getting nowhere, you know.
If you really “believed” in that Hope and Change bullshit, you’d be out working FOR your candidate, not snarking about in an opposition site.
You will never change a heart or mind. All you will do is firm up resolve.
Now, if you are working for McCain, you’re doing a heckuvajob, there Brownie.
I’ve been asking questions trying to understand your side and I’m getting stonewalled. I’m trying to clear up some claims that are being made here that are inaccurate. Other than my first post (probably not the smartest move), have I been rude? Have I been calling people names? No. But that is the treatment I have received.

Hope they both work
Thank you PewL! The first link didn’t work unfortunately, but the video did. Now I see where this document came from. I don’t really understand how this is a big deal though. He was listed under his adopted father’s name and religion. This wasn’t a madrassa. And the first school he went to there was a catholic school.
Look at your name calling, I haven’t been calling people names. I’m asking for facts and instead of educating me you people jump all over me.
you people jump all over me.
Barry? Barry Soretoes is that you?
facts? Ok. soeBOBO voted for telecom immunity after telling us during the primaries that he opposed it… and that little revelation during the primaries would have lost him the primaries. LOL so he hid it from us.
Oh trust me, I know about that and I’m not exactly happy about it. But no candidate is going to agree with me 100% of the time. If this were part of a long history of him voting for that kind of thing it would concern me, but doing it one time seems like he genuinely did it to compromise with republicans because no bill would be passed otherwise. I’m also not pleased that he has bent on offshore oil drilling although that’s part of a compromise as well.
No bill needed to be passed. The original FISA legislation was alive and well. soeBOBO voting for telecom immunity let the bush administration off the hook for prosecution. Had soeBOBo ran on that position he would have lost the primary plain and simple. So he had to lie to us.
He doesn’t have much of a history on anything so when he compromises (euphemism for flipflop) on an issue, I understand that to be his way of doing business. This isn’t about compromise at all–it’s about HIM getting onto the WH at any cost. That’s not what I want in a candidate.
There is not a candidate in US history who hasn’t changed their opinion on something. Like I said, he’s not perfect, but he’s a hell of a lot better than what we’ve had for the last 8 years.
There is not a candidate in US history who hasn’t changed their opinion on something
cool, then soeBOBO isn’t change we can believe in. He’s just the same ol same old. There’s more evidense that he just a liar. How does that make him better then what we’ve had for the last for years?
The common practice argument is fallacious, frankie.
Really, we know nothing about Oblahblah except that he will be the AA Bush, so even your fallacious argument falls flat. Try again, this time with feeling.
If that’s all you know about him I recommend you learn more about him. He’s not a bad guy, after college he could have become a big time lawyer making a lot of money but he chose to be a community organizer making just enough to get by. He is nothing like Bush. He didn’t grow up ultra-privileged, his GPA was double Bush’s. He is an economic scholar, Bush was a failed business man. A good leader can compromise with the opposition, for example, Lincoln surrounded himself with his political rivals. Also, the silly names for Barack aren’t necessary. I’ve never referred to Hillary by a silly name, it’s childish.
And before anyone says it, no I am not trying to say Barack is of Abe Lincoln stature.
The thing that has impressed me most about this democratic primary is how little integrity both soeBOBO and the soeBOBOweenies have.
You’ve been talking a lot about how horrible a person Obama is but you are yet to cite a single source. Cut out the name calling and accusations, let’s talk about the issues.
I have been. seoBOBO supported telecom immunity when he not longer needed primary votes. He’s just as pastor wright described him. seoBOBO says what he has to say.
What the hell does seoBOBO mean? I want more examples of why Barack shouldn’t be our next president. One thing isn’t enough to persuade me, like I said, no candidate is going to vote the way I want them too EVERY time. Were you okay with Hillary voting for Iraq war funding? And the Iraq war in the first place? Oh and the Patriot Act?
