Obama Claims That His Father Served In WWII

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fv4jnlkxOaw]

Obama’s father was born in 1936. He was nine years old when WWII ended. He must have served in the infantry.

    He’s a mess…..
    But it seems to go with the territory

  2. Gator says:

    I really, really, really hate to defend this scumbag. But I’m fairly certain he meant to say his maternal grandfather who did indeed serve in WWII.

    “Dunham, the man whom Barack Obama would one day call Gramps, was a 26-year-old supply sergeant stationed near the English Channel with the U.S. Army Air Forces when the invasion of Normandy at last began. Six weeks later, he crossed the Channel, too, and followed the Allied front across France. A year later, he was on track to fight in Japan when the atom bomb sent him home instead.”

    Still, I liked the infantry joke!

  3. Justa Joe says:

    He also said that his Grand Father presumably on his mother’s side helped liberate Auschwitz, which was “liberated” by the Red Army. The sad thing is that he said that before he was elected, but people still voted for him even though the statement demonstrates dishonesty and a basic historical ignorance.

    For some reason all Donks embellish their personal and family histories. Hillary, Biden et al have all pulled these types of stunts.

  4. Tourist in Chief says:

    Quite the whopper. But there is little about this guy that is straight up. He could have slipped too, remembering a true father, not Obama Sr., who apparently had no interest in his “son”.

    Frank Marshall Davis was old enough, but no mention of service. And commie slimebags would have avoided service.

    Speaking of Vets this Joe Romm character is certifiable. Between Romm & Jimmie Death Trains Hansen I’m starting to think that warmist are all just frustrated science fiction writers.

    It is obvious that he meant his grandfather.
    The real issue here is that when this website continues to call him a liar when the mistake is abvious, then the credibility of this website is very questionable. You only hurt your own cause by continuing your own lie. It is true that the rabid fans will be impressed with your article. However, you turn off people of normal intelligence.
    It seems that once a news outlet adopts a cause, the truth no longer matters.

  8. Sam says:

    Oh please, Jim: Where does this website “call him a liar”? Because it doesn’t, that makes you the fibber.

  9. Jim says:

    The implication is that he lied. A legitimate, honest website would not state that Obama Claims That His Father Served in WWII. A legitimate, honest website would state that Obama mistakenly referred to his father serving in WWII when he meant his grandfather. Of course, this would not be very newsworthy and it would not result in a lot of idiots defaming the person who happens to be tha President Of The United States of America. Obama is wrong on CO2 warming the planet, but the best way to promote the truth is to be truthful and honest. Stupidity should not be used to fight stupidity. And, dishonesty is just not a good policy.

    • Sorry, I meant to say “*don’t* press the red button”

    • glacierman says:

      Yes, the MSM is always open minded and corrects mistatements inadvertently made by people all the time……………..

      ……………..as long as they are liberals.

      Anyone else gets worked over the coals. I suppose you are spending alot of your time informing them how dishonest they are and asking them to correct the “mistatements”.

    • Latitude says:

      Something is seriously wrong with Jim….
      …he believes everything he sees on the internet

      It’s funny Jim….
      ..if they hadn’t cut Biden’s tongue out, we’d be laughing at him too

    • suyts says:

      Jim, I disagree. Much hay is made when conservatives misspeak or make gaffes. So much so, it allows the left to characterize conservatives as intellectually inferior. From Ford’s bumbling, to Quayle’s spelling, to Bush’s verbiage to Palin’s inability to answer inane questions, the left go to town. No one steps up to say they misspoke or meant to say this to understand that, they just vilify. Its past time to respond in kind. They no know boundaries nor possess an ounce of civility.

      • Latitude says:

        ever notice that liberals just “miss speak”………….

        and conservatives are dumb as a stump trained mule

      • suyts says:

        Yeh, I notice it a lot. The fact is, conservatives don’t hold a candle to the libs when it comes to gaffes. It’s just that they play conservatives up so much. And silently letting the stuff pass doesn’t do the trick. It is what allows the libtards to paint us as redneck anti-science numskulls. So, I’m all for fighting fire with fire.

        DOH!

  10. Marc Blank says:

    The dishonesty of Obama-haters is pretty much without bound. Granted, some liberals did the same with W, but that doesn’t excuse it. I really wish this site would stick to climate skepticism rather than descending into crass political partisanship; it doesn’t exactly help the case that skepticism is about the science…

    • Squidly says:

      Dishonest? .. dishonest? .. really? .. It would be nice if the libterds would just take a little glance once in a while at this POS that claims to be POTUS and see just who has been dishonest. You know, you can tell when the Obewon is lying, his lips are moving. I have yet to hear an honest word come from his mouth. Obama is nothing more than one big lie, from start to finish. He has made the old peanut farmer look pretty good at this point. What a fricken joke. I just find it hard to believe (or perhaps hard to swallow) that there are so many stupid people in this country that bought in to his bullshit. Unbelievable…. … but, I am doubting that it is going to happen a second time. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.

    • Squidly says:

      Might I also remind you “under my system of cap and trade, energy prices will necessarily skyrocket …. all in the name of CO2 and AGW ……. there’s a little bit of climate for ya pal….

      DOH!

    • Squidly says:

      I will have to agree with you however, Steven should keep this to climate, at least it doesn’t get my blood boiling quite as much. However, that being said, if you want to debate Obama, his Czar’s and administration, I would be more than happy to oblige, be forewarned, I come armed with ample ammunition (figure of speech just so you know and don’t go off claiming I am inciting some sort of radical violent takeover of the world). Friendly advice; stick to the science yourself.

  11. Amino Acids in Meteorites says:

    Ok, I was poking fun with the birth certificate comments, but Doh!

    An international expert on scanners and document-imaging software filed a 22-page criminal complaint with the FBI, charging that the long-form birth certificate released by the White House is criminally fraudulent.,,,,,

    The real issue here is that when this website continues to call him a liar when the mistake is abvious

    He IS a liar. It does not matter if he stubbed his toe, added an e to potato, or just wanted to slip one by. It is a lie. The real issue is why anyone would want to try to define what the meaning of a lie is (or is is). newspeak on parade folks! Lie like a rug, do not even correct yourself – let the bots go out and spin it for you.

    Wrong. A legitimate honest website would say he incorrectly claimed his father served. An honest website would not say he meant his grandfather since they are not psychic. just the obamabots apparently.

    face it – he embellished, got caught and now the spin begins. All because he cannot admit he is wrong.

  14. dangreene says:

    His grandfather DID serve in WWII. I call it a slip of the tongue.

  15. Bob Buntin says:

    Why not forgive the mistake by allowing the benefit of doubt that he meant grandfather?
    It is obvious he could not have meant father. And his grandfather was more of a father figure than his real father. We should allow similar mis-speaking by Quayle, Bush, Palin, and others. Shouldn’t we?
