What does Barack Hussein Obama (a.k.a. Barry Soetero’s) half brother think of him?

George Hussein Onyango Obama, Senator Barack Obama’s long lost brother was tracked down living in a hut on the outskirts of Nairobi. The Italian edition of Vanity Fair said that it had found George Hussein Onyango Obama living in a hut in a ramshackle town of Huruma on the outskirts of Nairobi.

Mr Obama, 26, the youngest of the presidential candidate’s half-brothers, spoke for the first time about his life, which could not be more different than that of the Democratic contender.

“No-one knows who I am,” he told the magazine, before claiming: “I live here on less than a dollar a month.”

I find this story to be a pretty sad one. I mean really, Barack Obama couldn’t get his half brother out of there & offer him a job in the DNC or something? I mean in all seriousness, he (George Obama) wants to better himself from what I can see. He’s schooling, likes football, has dreams just like most young American men do. Maybe there’s some reason I can’t see or am unaware of, but you have to wonder what kind of person who is as rich as Barack Obama has become, would leave their half brother in these conditions?

What in hell will he do if Iran decides to take American hostages again? Pull a Jimmy Carter? I mean dude won’t even help his own blood out, what will he do when others Americans need him?

That’s why I’m proposing that the Republican National Committee give the guy a job. Am I being facetious? Not really, because I’ll be straight up with you, it’s shameful, & I want people to know it is & why.

The guy wants to work, & here is yet another example of the Democrats only giving handouts to eligible voters, or those who they think can help them politically. Now we have a high level political leader in the United States who lets his kid brother live on a dollar a day in a violent & embattled province of Nairobi?

A Republican freed the slaves, (Abraham Lincoln) , & then a Republican black civil rights leader finished the job, (Martin Luther King.) So it would be appropriate for the RNC to pull this man out of poverty to show once again, that we are the party of freedom & opportunity, while the Democrats are still the party of the KKK.

I don’t know too much about George Obama, but what I do know I like. Give the man a job!
Someone should.. God knows his elitist Presidential Candidate brother won’t bother to help him. Liberals are just SOOoooooo compassionate aren’t they?

How I entered college an Agnostic Liberal and left a Conservative Christian

By Mrs. Deadken

The following is an account of my SoCal college experiences…

During my first semester, I took a Political Science class and scored “flaming Liberal” on the entrance exam (I scored further left than anyone in the entire class). I also took a bunch of Sociology, Psychology, Science and Multi-cultural classes. In these subjects I was routinely told about the evils of America, Republicans and Christians. I was enlightened in my science classes about how God does not exist. I was informed that men are pigs (except possibly the progressive, sensitive, compliant ones that were bi-products of the feminist movement). I remember giggling in agreement when my professors talked about how archaic and ignorant Christians were and nodding in unison when they described how greedy and arrogant Republicans were. I would then bring this “superior intellectual knowledge” home to my high-school-sweetheart-turned-hubby Charlie, in hopes that I could sway him from his Conservative Christian views (oh yeah, our household was a barrel of monkeys during this time period). Charlie would ask me questions like, “Don’t you wonder why they aren’t offering counter points? What are they afraid of? What are they hiding?” I remember him so logically and lovingly providing the balance that my professors deprived me of. However, like so many naïve young college kids, I thought “how could my instructors, with all of their education and degrees, be wrong?” Class after class, semester after semester, I heard the same old stuff. But little by little, it didn’t feel so great to bob my head in unison. In fact, I secretly became ashamed. Even though I was a goody-two-shoes obsessed with my 4.0, I had always been somewhat of a rebel at heart. In jr. high and high school I was drawn to the “different” kids (for me it was the brainiac/skater/sci-fi/punk crowd). I really admired those that did not blindly follow the crowd, were willing to take a stand, stick-up for the underdog, etc. Suddenly, here I was in college, and somehow I had become part of the mass mob majority. I grew more and more skeptical, I began to see the importance of Charlie’s questions, and I wanted answers.

Really long story short… you can only be spoon fed a one-sided story for so long before (hopefully) you begin to question its validity. Out of my respect and admiration for my hubby, my need for balance, my love for the underdogs, etc. I started to do my own research. It is interesting, amazing, and life-altering the information that can be found outside of college. You might be familiar with some of my findings like: I learned that scientific theories (the ones trying to remove God) actually contradict with scientific laws – weird that my Science teachers never disclosed that FACT (for more lefty myths, see my blog: Lies from the Land of the Left). Anyway, some of you know my story from there… I am now a Conservative Christian living in SoCal – a REBEL once again! Woohoo! And… (just in case you didn’t know)… Ann Coulter and Jesus rock!!!

I realize that this was my personal experience. And, to be fair, the types of classes I took might partly explain why my professors were so biased: my BA major was in Liberal Arts (fyi: liberal meaning “the seven branches of medieval education”, not “Michael Moore”) with a minor in Sociology and my MA was in Education and Multicultural studies. As a side note, I do want to give a shout-out to my Calculus teacher and most of my grad school professors at Chapman University (private school, hellooo) for remaining fairly balanced – I now realize how truly courageous they were. I am now a public school teacher myself and I understand the enormous responsibility that comes with my profession. I know how students can blindly believe what they are told, so I must be as fair and balanced as possible. In my opinion, a lot of our kids are having a Liberal agenda shoved down their throats, and they are buying it hook, line and sinker. Unfortunately, I do not think my story is unique.
