Obama’s Claim That British Tortured His Grandfather Debunked
I wonder if Barack Hussein Obama will stop hating Western Civilization in general and our closest ally Britain in particular in light of the revelation that his fantasy about his grandfather being tortured by the British for standing up on behalf of the put-upon colored masses is not true:
‘Barack Obama: The Story’ by David Maraniss catalogues dozens of instances in which Obama deviated significantly from the truth in his book ‘Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance’. The 641-page book punctures the carefully-crafted narrative of Obama’s life.
One of the enduring myths of Obama’s ancestry is that his paternal grandfather Hussein Onyango Obama, who served as a cook in the British Army, was imprisoned in 1949 by the British for helping the anti-colonial Mau Mau rebels and held for several months.
Obama’s step-grandmother Sarah, Onyango wife, who is still living, is quoted in the future President’s memoir, as saying: ‘One day, the white man’s askaris came to take Onyango away, and he was placed in a detention camp.
‘But he had been in the camp for over six months, and when he returned to Alego he was very thin and dirty. He had difficulty walking, and his head was full of lice. He was so ashamed, he refused to enter his house or tell us what happened.’

Seriously, despite all the ignorant liberals, dems, dead dems, long dead dems, retarded white guilters, what used to be formerly known as ‘the media’, and his own party bullshit…how the holy fuck did this poser get anywhere near a security clearance?

@House of Kell – To start off, he had very rich Saudi backers that got him through some college. Then, he had terrorists as his political backers. And to get “elected” he simply had 3rd party supporters DESTROY any of his competition so that his success in “public office” is mainly due to “Political attrition” (read: Dirty Tricks).
When he finally got to the national level a guy named Soros got involved as did the “Kneel & Bob” Media. Plus, some Ignorant Masses who had been brainwashed and infiltrated for decades soaked all of that slop up for breakfast. The rest, as they say, is history.

The more I hear about this fugitive pygmy, the less I like him.
And I didn’t like him at all to begin with.

If grandaddy was a Mau Mau, the limeys should have executed him. The Mau Maus killed baby negroes and ate their brains as part of their “Oathing” ceremonies.
Some really sick, cannibalistic, terrorists.

“he was very thin and dirty. He had difficulty walking, and his head was full of lice.”

The Many Lies in Obama’s “Dreams”
Most people don’t care how many angels can dance on the head of a pin since the question is pinheaded and the answer almost as incalculable as the number of lies in Barack Hussein Obama’s Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance.
Obama’s “memoir,” first published in 1995 when the future president was all of 34 years of age and while he was still slaving away as a Chicago civil rights attorney, soared into the best-seller list after he addressed the 2004 Democrat Convention and rocketed following his election to the United States Senate in 2006 and began to make noises about running for the presidency.
Revised and re-issued in 2004 after those noises became thunderous and Obama came to believe his wild ambitions thanks to aid, encouragement, and financial support from mysterious, unidentified “friends,” Dreams became a publishing phenomenon and helped make Obama a millionaire “one-percenter.”
Barack Obama’s childhood dream of leading the Free World his Marxist father so detested was on the near horizon; America’s Left and America’s book-sellers welcomed him with open arms, open wallets, and open adulation.
Gushing acclaim followed. The book was variously praised as “extraordinary,” “daring,” “evocative,” “honest,” “lyrical,” and “candid” and was dutifully awarded a place on Time magazine’s list of the top 100 English non-fiction books written since 1923.
Heady accolades, indeed!
The chief problem with Dreams from My Father is that the book is largely fiction in the guise of a memoir. Overflowing with lies and misrepresentations, Dreams went unvetted by the mainstream media most of whom obviously never read it before virtually proclaiming it the greatest autobiography penned since Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press in A.D. 1440.
Why vet a book when you don’t bother to vet its alleged author?
Dreams from My Father has evolved into a transparent nightmare for our misbegotten president as his prevarications have become public knowledge.
LIE NUMBER ONE. First came the suspicions of people who did read Dreams and noticed distinct stylistic and ideological similarities with the writings and thinking of the confessed, unrepentant domestic terrorist, Bill Ayers.
To this day, Obama contends he barely knew Ayers, who lived in his neighborhood and with whom he served on the 9-member Woods Fund of Chicago and whose family reputedly financed his Harvard Law School education.
When Google recognized Ayers as the ghost writer of Dreams and Ayers confirmed writing the book last year, the matter of the authorship of the “autobiography” should have been closed.
It wasn’t. Obama’s acolytes wouldn’t allow their hero to be tarred with truth no matter how extensive that truth.
LIE NUMBER TWO. As with many African-Americans, including semi-African-Americans, the young, mixed-race Barack evidently preferred dating white girls.
In Dreams, Ayers wrote of Obama’s “New York girlfriend,” another mystery, “Genevieve Cook,” who never existed as an individual, yet he was able to clearly describe her looks, voice, and mannerisms.
David Maraniss’ recently-published biography, Barack Obama: The Story, has been characterized by the Huffington Post as questioning “the accuracy of the president’s memoir.” In fact, Maraniss did nothing of the sort. He didn’t question the accuracy of Dreams. More precisely, he. . .
