Official Obligatory Disclaimer: I am not a Birther, a Flat-Earther, nor a Gold-Standard Worther (the latter is a shout out to Ron Paul supporters).
With that out of the way, If you’ve seen the literary agency brochure revealed by Brietbart.Com this week, you have exactly two choices: President Obama was lying then or he’s lying now.
The brochure was to try to sell a book (never published) by Barack Obama, who was “born in Kenya”, says the brochure unambiguously.
Since some doubt Obama was born in the US, and therefore his legitimacy as a natural-born citizen to run for president according to the Constitution, this can’t just be brushed off. The literary agency, Dystel & Goderich, published the “inaccurate” bio of Obama about 20 years ago but kept the information about Kenya as the place of his birth until 2007, conveniently just before he began his presidential campaign. At that time the literary agency’s web site was changed to say Obama was born in Hawaii.
To state the obvious, if Obama wasn’t born in the United States, he is ineligible to be president.
The position of Brietbart.Com is that the brochure is wrong and that Obama was indeed born in Hawaii. But the brochure would not have been wrong in the first place if Obama hadn’t told his agent he was born in Kenya.
So either he was lying then, as Breitbart.Com says, or he’s lying now and he never was qualified to run for president. Those are the choices.
In a fascinating coincidence, it came to light in a painfully slow dance that Elizabeth Warren (D), candidate for Senate from Massachusetts, had falsely claimed to be part Cherokee in order to take advantage of minority benefits in her college teaching career. Some have insisted that she had a great-great-great grandfather with high cheek bones, so of course he had to be Native American, but even that is in doubt.
So in the same week we find two Democrat politicians who lied about their heritage to benefit their careers.
Truth Schmuth.
And somewhere the anti-war demonstrators are still chanting “Bush lied…”
