need some help debunking a right wing email called Obama LIES

[ORDagnabbit]

Is there a site or thread already debunking this?

Obama Lies:

1.) Selma Got Me Born - LIAR, your parents felt safe enough to have you in 1961 - Selma had no effect on your birth, as Selma was in 1965.

2.) Father Was A Goat Herder - LIAR, he was a privileged, well educated youth, who went on to work with the Kenyan Government.

4.) My Family Has Strong Ties To African Freedom - LIAR, your cousin Raila Odinga has created mass violence in attempting to overturn a legitimate election in 2007, in Kenya. It is the first widespread violence in decades.

5.) My Grandmother Has Always Been A Christian - LIAR, she does her daily Salat prayers at 5am according to her own interviews. Not to mention, Christianity wouldn't allow her to have been one of 14 wives to 1 man.

6.) My Name is African Swahili - LIAR, your name is Arabic and Baraka (from which Barack came) means blessed in that language. Hussein is also Arabic and so is Obama.

8.) My School In Indonesia Was Christian - LIAR, you were registered as Muslim there and got in trouble in Koranic Studies for making faces (check your own book).

10.) Because I Lived In Indonesia, I Have More Foreign Experience - LIAR, you were there from the ages of 6 to 10, and couldn't even speak the language. What did you learn, how to study the Koran and watch cartoons.

11.) I Am Stronger On Foreign Affairs - LIAR, except for Africa (surprise) and the Middle East (bigger surprise), you have never been anywhere else on the planet and thus have NO experience with our closest allies.

12.) I Blame My Early Drug Use On Ethnic Confusion - LIAR, you were quite content in high school to be Barry Obama, no mention of Kenya and no mention of struggle to identify - your classmates said you were just fine.

13.) An Ebony Article Moved Me To Run For Office - LIAR, Ebony has yet to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn't, and never did, exist.
14.) A Life Magazine Article Changed My Outlook On Life - LIAR, Life has yet to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn't, and never did, exist.

28.) No One Contacted Canada About NAFTA - LIAR, the Candian Government issued the names and a memo of the conversation your campaign had with them.

1. what proof Obama even said this shit?? but Snopes is on it

http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/50lies.asp

[no limit]

2. Go to snopes.com

its probably there already.

[JHB]

Yup. Here's the link

[ORDagnabbit]

6. perfect!!! thanks.

[notfullofit]

9. That does not

do it for me.
Not enough denials there.

[YOY]

3. They can piss off if they can't vote for the Democratic nominee

If they want McCrazy then go for it.

[spanone]

4. don't waste your time

[sinkingfeeling]

5. Send it back and ask for sources of Obama's saying those things and sources for the

writer conflicting statements. No sources, the writer has nothing.

[izquierdista]

7. Wearing a flag pin makes you patriotic?

I'm sure the KGB used that plenty of times to get past people as stupid as the writer when they wanted government secrets. Just put the hammer & sickle away, pin on Ol' Glory and stupid fucks will salute them as they walk in the front door of the Pentagon.

8. Number five is especially curious

Not that one of his grandmothers was a Muslim, but the part about Christianity not allowing plural marriage. The Bible contains a LOT of references to plural marriage, since at the time the practice was to marry women to men with the best seed, so as to ensure lots of children. You needed a lot of children if you expected any of them to survive to adulthood.

If you go by the Biblical description of Christianity, not only would Jesus have been fine with Barack Obama's grandma being one of many wives to the same man, he would have been highly UNhappy with the present situation. One wife? Not good.

10. And "Debunking" Will Help How???

Those who write and read this shit already have made up their minds...this is just more of the same crap. Truth is that there are still many racists out there that will try to "legitimize" something Obama said or that they made up...or who he's associated with as a way to let their true racist feelings come to the fore...and then when they're called out on it say that those say they're racists must be racists as well.

Bottom line...this swill will keep circulating and any attention it gets just accomplishes what the slimer hoped for...attention!

11. I saw this at an anti-Obama site called "The Audacity of Deception & Hypocrisy."

Since millions of Democrats and Republicans have united in opposition to Obama, I can't realy tell if it's a right-wing site.

The list of lies is updated regularly, as Obama tells new lies, and old lies are discovered. There are now 68 alleged Obama lies. Here are the new ones:

51.) Treehouse Is A Small Company - LIAR, the CEO of Treehouse last year, made more than the CEO
ofWal-Mart, according to public records.
52.) University Of Chicago Hospital Pay Is Fair - LIAR, your wife’s pay raise was nearly 150% her
already bloated rate and the hospital is a Non-Profit Hospital, which made $100,000,000 in the last 3
years. They overcharge blacks VS whites for services, and overcharge everyone in general by 538%!
53.)I Barely Know Rezko - Only 5 Billed Hours - LIAR, you have known him for 17 years, and decided
to do a real estate deal with him during a time when he was proven to be under investigation. Despite this,
you divided your property and had them take off $300K before the mortgage problems started. Then
Rezko’s wife buys the lot beside it that you can’t afford, saving you $625,000.
54.) My Donations Have Been Checked Thoroughly - LIAR, you only gave back Hsu ($72K) and Rezko
(first $66K, then when caught lying $86K, then when caught lying again $150K and now caught lying
YET AGAIN OBAMA, it’s $250k) their money when publically called on their involvement in your
campaigns.
55.) My Church Is Like Any Other Christian Church - LIAR, your church is so extreme, the pastor who
married you, Rev. Wright, just got done blaming the US for 9/11 and named Louis Farrahkan their person
of the year.
56.) I Disagree With My Church All The Time - LIAR, you still have yet to repudiate Wright, who
married you and your wife, and you still donate large sums of money to assist the church in furthering its
message - hatred and revenge. You donated in 2006 alone, $22,500 to the church that you so terribly
disagree with. That is nearly $500 PER WEEK - that sure is disagreement, Senator Obama.
57.) I Have Clean Connections Despite Rezko - LIAR, you are not only connected to Exelon and Rezko,
you are also connected to Hillary PAC supporter Mr. Hsu, AND an Iraqi Billionaire of ill repute, Nadhmi
Auchi, who ripped off people in the Food For Oil, Iraqi deal. Seems Mr. Auchi may have helped Obama
buy his million dollar property long before Obama had millions of dollars. Wonder what favors Mr. Auchi
expects, when Obama leaves Iraq free to be taken over by special interests such as him.
58.) I never heard sermons like Rev. Wright’s, that have been in videos all day, You Tube - LIAR! 3 days
later during your Mea Culpa BS speech you said “Did I hear controversial statements while I sat in that
church? Yes I did.”
59.) The Passport Invasion is a conspiracy to find dirt on me! - LIAR. Your own Campaign Foreign Policy
Advisor is the CEO of the company that looked into your records. PS - You had them look into yours to
hide the fact you looked into Clinton’s and McCain’s more than a year before!

Obama Lies - Updated to reflect new dishonesties 04/03/2008 | AUD... http://www.audacityofhypocrisy.com/?p=62
5 of 17 5/28/2008 12:59 PM
60.) Rev. Meeks has nothing to do with my campaigning - LIAR. Rev. Meeks appeared in ads for your
Senate Campaign, donated to you, and helped raise money, then AND NOW. PS - He also seems to
despise America.
61.) My wife didn’t mean America is ignorant, she was just using a phrase - LIAR. Again, MicHELLe’s
comments perfectly sync with Wright’s, Meeks’, and Farrakhans, both in language, anger, and direction.
62.) I am very Anti-Terror - LIAR. <03/30/2008> One of your good pals is long time radical and terrorist
William Ayers, with whom you have been seen in the last 12 months and who has helped the now jailed
khalidi, Professor at Columbia who invited Ahmadinejad to the University, to raise money for Palestinian
terrorism attacks against Israel. PS - Your church published a pro Hamas Manifesto - guess you weren’t
there on THAT Sunday either? How lucky for you.
63.) I have the best plan to cure the Mortgage Crisis - LIAR. <03/30/2008> You and your campaign buddy
Penny SubPrime Bank Collapse Prizker have had your little fingers full of subprime cash - Obama has
taken $1,180,103 from the top issuers of subprime loans: Obama received $266,907 from Lehman, $5395
from GMAC, $150,850 from Credit Suisse First Boston, $11,250 from Countrywide, $9052 from
Washington Mutual, $161,850 from Citigroup, $4600 from CBASS, $170,050 from Morgan Stanley,
$1150 from Centex, and last but certainly NOT LEAST - Obama received $351,900 from Goldman Sachs.
I am sure that cash all came from folks who knew the subprime loan they had was a dream, eh?
64) I played greater role in crafting liberal stands on gun control, the death penalty and abortion - LIAR -
<03/31/2008> It was found that Obama — the day after sitting for the interview — filed an amended
version of the questionnaire, which appears to contain Obama’s own handwritten notes added to one
answer. Read Obama had greater role on liberal survey
65) I did NOT play the race card: - LIAR - <03/31/2008> Obama was the first to play the race card.
According to Phialdelphia Inquirer, Quietly, the storm over the hateful views expressed by Sen. Barack
Obama’s pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, has blown away the most insidious myth of the Democratic
primary campaign. Obama and his surrogates have charged that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has
deliberately and cleverly played the race card in order to label Obama the “black” candidate. Read

66) I did not take money from oil companies: - LIAR - <03/31/2008>
THE FACTS: True enough, Obama does not take money from oil companies. No candidate does. It is
illegal for corporations to give money to politicians. Corporations, however, do have political action
committees that collect voluntary donations from employees and then donate them to candidates. Obama
doesn’t take money from PACs. He also doesn’t take money from lobbyists.
But he does accept money from executives and other employees of oil companies and two of his
fundraisers are oil company executives. As of Feb. 29, Obama’s presidential campaign had received nearly
$214,000 from oil and gas industry employees and their families, according to an analysis by the
nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics. Clinton had received nearly $307,000 from industry workers
and their families and Republican Sen. John McCain, the likely GOP presidential nominee, received nearly
$394,000, according to the center’s totals.
Two of Obama’s fundraisers are Robert Cavnar, the chairman and chief executive of Houston-based
Mission Resources Corp., and George Kaiser, the president and CEO of Tulsa-based Kaiser-Francis Oil
Co. Source: Associated press via Yahoo News
67) “I don’t think my church is actually particularly controversial,” Obama said at a community meeting in
Nelsonville, Ohio, earlier this month. - LIAR - But yesterday, he told a different story. “Did I ever hear
him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in church? Yes,” he said in his speech
yesterday in Philadelphia.

68) Look at my education record in Illinois - LIAR - In reality, Obama never really championed the local
councils. He supported them behind the scenes and only eventually came out publicly on their behalf.
When he did weigh in, he came down on the wrong side of the debate—against protecting principals from
unwarranted dismissals and in favor of keeping councils independent, no matter what. In the end, the
resolution of the conflict between the two sides didn’t alleviate anyone’s concerns. Instead, it prolonged a
turf battle that seems to have dragged down academic progress in the years since. Read more here
