Few stories have managed to jump off the page and grip the heart and the better sensibilities of this writer as much as the recently released news item about George Obama, the President’s brother. It flashed across a few of the better conservative internet sites, but was conspicuously missing from the mainstream media. We have learned to expect less from the MSM, but this one may turn out to be the crown jewel of their collective dishonesty and indifference.
It is the kind of story that helps us to understand why Barack Obama must divert everyone’s attention to Mitt’s tax return and Ryan’s budget and anything else he can conjure up in the next 16 weeks before the general election.
Comparing Obama’s lack of honesty and compassion to Mitt’s tax returns is purely a case of comparing apples to oranges; and yet, it is an assessment that says more about Barack than any speech, pitch, promise, or proposal he will make between now and November 6, 2012.
It is an enigma, a non-sequitur, and an absurdity that begs to be examined. It should produce shame in the media for not telling it (and shame in the president for living it), but my best advice is that you don’t hold your breath waiting for either one.
We are used to the Obama administration’s absurdities, although not by choice. Examples abound starting with Fast and Furious. The entire sordid affair, now quieted under the secrecy of executive privilege, leaves the lives of Agent Brian Terry and three hundred Mexican citizens unanswered and unaccounted for. Anyone with only a speck of conscience may, in a moment of deep and contemplative silence, hear the faint but impassioned cry of their souls calling from the grave for justice.
Next, we see black panthers intimidating voters at a polling booth in 2008. After declining to prosecute them, the Attorney General proceeds to sue states for enforcing or adopting voter ID laws. Now, figuratively speaking, we can see Lady Justice’s blindfold pulled down from her eyes and tied tightly across her mouth to gag and silence her.
Yet, there is one more inequity that screams from the daily news, but sounds more like something extracted from the twisted visions of Sartre, Dali, or Hitchcock. The next great Obama/Holder effort is the instructions given to border agents not to enforce our laws and release many of those who would otherwise be detained. Soon after those instructions were given, 15 murders and rapes were done to American citizens by illegal Mexicans who were set free.
The border story is bad enough by itself, but then along comes a $300,000 fine levied against Gibson Guitar Corp. Gibson was raided by an army of gun-toting and geared-up agents from several law enforcement agencies. Their crime: allegedly breaking a 1907 law called the “Lacey Act.” Gibson was charged with pulling cuts of rare wood from Madagascar that were exactly 4mm too thick.
Americans murdered and raped because our laws were not enforced – Gibson humiliated, fined, and harassed for an infraction against a conservation law. No, this is not a story pulled from the files of “Ripley’s Believe it or Not” but is a product of an administration detached from anything that remotely resembles American law and prudence. Along with the rape and murders of our citizens, equity, fairness, and common sense (it seems) have been murdered and raped as well.
Finally along comes George’s story, courtesy of Fox News and Dinesh D’Souza, the narrator and co-director of the film “2016 Obama’s America.” It starts when Dinesh received a phone call from the president’s brother, who is living in a slum in Nairobi, the largest city in Obama’s native Kenya.
No one would depict George as the cream of the crop, but his needs reach down to levels that no one in America can imagine. There is no food stamp program or welfare to bolster him and his family until he can get on his feet. It is a day-to-day existence that is always scraping the bottom of human dignity.
George called Dinesh to ask for help, but not for him. His son had a chest condition that was life threatening and needed immediate attention. He asked Dinesh for $1,000 to pay for the hospital treatment. After verifying the facts, Dinesh helped him; and in a phone call from Kenya, George was asked why he had to call Dinesh for help. He said “I have no one else to ask.” Then he said something that astounded me: “Dinesh, you are like a brother to me.”
Yes, accordingly George, the brother of the president of the United States, a multi-millionaire. But more than that, he is a president who claims to be a Christian, has been often heard quoting from Genesis 4: 9, and claims that it is one of the most basic guides of his life.
Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is Abel your brother?” He said, “I do not know; am I my brother’s keeper?” (Gen 4: 9)
We know from Barack Obama’s proclivity to eclectically pick and choose which verses of the bible he holds to be authoritative and others he labels as “obscure,’ such as the entirety of Romans 1: 22 – 32. Using Gen 4: 9 may be for him just a matter of convenience. If that is not true, then there is no way to explain why he missed the obvious meaning of the following three verses.
And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? (Luke 6: 46)
Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungered, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? Then shall he answer them, saying, verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. (Mt 25: 44, 45)
But whoso hath this world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? (1 Jn 3: 17)
Let’s keep it short and sweet. While our attention has been diverted in the vain and politically motivated call to find Mitt Romney’s unseen tax returns, can anyone find a speck of compassion or basic humanity in that millionaire brother of George Obama, whom we now refer to as the President of the United States?

It amazes me when I see those Hollywood Celebrities and others who party away w/the very person who really could care less about them. He just uses people and if they are of no use or benefit to him he throws them away. Boggles my mind how stupid people are just because he is HALF BLACK they think he is as they say DA BOMB. Hes DA BOMB all right, he’s about to turn this country into another Venezuela.
He has neither honesty nor compassion….cold as the Arctic tundra!!!!
YOU CAN’T LOSE WHAT YOU DON’T HAVE!!! THIS THING IS PURE EVIL!!
Obozo has a heart of stone/ice. What do we expect from the biggest child-killer in American history? Anybody who promotes the butchering of millions of innocent, unborn children IS NOT honest and has NO compassion.
BO has no heart; once you saw how he treats his brother, George, do you think he gives a cr-p about our seniors? See 2016, you’ll be the wiser for it, although very discouraged. Get rid of this monster in our WH !
Anyone remember ,during the last election O was advising Odinga{his fellow tribesmen in Kenya}who was running for President or Prime Minster {,I forget} that 1000 Kenyian Christian were burnt to death at Church?Or his silence over the Iranian Uprising ,or the recent Egyptian persceutions and beheadings of Christians?Have we heard any words from the socalled leader of the free world?Moral outrage over the deaths of Mexicans citizens,from weapons his own adminstration supplied?Instead he’s fund raiseing ,golf and basket ball !Oh and the ATF agents with the blood on there hands are still on the payroll as in not in jail!Must be some sort of hispanic voter out reach,that we peons are to dumb to understand?
The Scumbucket-in-Chief will allow them to live in squalor and die if that happens just to ignore their existence. The Narcissist of 1600 Pennsy does not want to associate himself with the lesser relatives in any way. To him they demean him.
Oh, right! And there’s that citizenship thingy where his relatives claim he was born in Kenya.
Keeping that under the rug is worth a few dead nephews. Right?
Besides, he’d have more time to think about suffering relatives but he’s simply exhausted from those multiple vacations. Yep, spending millions in tax payers cash wears a guy down and leaves little time for compassion towards ill nephews. Besides, the lad isn’t old enough to vote.
What an absolute scum bucket!!!
Well he will be sorry in a few short weeks. Yes, he is totally ignoring his brother that needs help, yet he jumped in to help a drunken uncle with several DUI’s get freed and not prosecution, Plus an ILLEGAL aunt get automatic overnight citizenship as soon as it was revealed she was living in this country and illegal. This man – is not a man – he is a machine. No feelings, no caring about anyone or anything. And I get so tired of hearing him “quote from the Bible like a Christian”. He is NOT a Christian – he is a “RADICAL MUSLIM” along with the rest of the radicals that are making trouble. I think just because he acts like he helped take down Osama bin Laden – Osama was actually a friend – but because of what he had done, Scumbucket in chief had to do something because of where he was then – in the White House. So he arranged for the Navy Seals to take down Osuma. Another sad part about this boob – is what he is doing to this country – children, babies, seniors (which I am one), and others – he is also doing to his own kids – but destroying this country, but there again – he doesn’t care even about his own two kids. Maybe they aren’t really his. Maybe Moooooochelle had them thru someone else – since Oblummer had a homosexual relationship. How about them apples. Things to think about too. It has been PROVEN he was born in Kenya – he actually admitted it several times – and those are on video of different speeches he has made, Mooooochelle admitted he was born in Kenya and even his own mother before she died – during his first campaign admitted he was born in Kenya. And why has an Student ID card from Columbia shown up with “Barry Soetoro” name and for “Foreign Student” on the ID card??????????? This moron needs to be eliminated and soon people. Get everyone you know to get him out. And with such a drastic difference in votes that it will actually be embarrassing to him, if that is possible.
I can’t begin to comprehend how this monster we have stealing our country has escaped the bowels of hell. He is such an egregious @#$% ( I can’t find the words to properly express the contempt that I have for this lowlife). If the ignorant left radicals stand by this piece of garbage then they are no better and probably worse than he. He has an excuse, he is narcissistic, evil, and consumed with the devil. I pray every day that something will happen to bring this country to their senses and get rid of him before November, lest he completely destroys our magnificent Republic and our children, grandchildren and generations will be left to live in the hell-hole he makes of our country. We all have got to pray, pray, pray, and pray as that is what will get us through all this torment.
Where does the millions of American tax dollars go that Obama sends to Kenya? Evidently not to help his brother.
There is just no more to be said about the anti-Christ that lives in the WH……His campaign can’t win on it’s own so he’ll do anything to demoralize anyone that steps in his way. He wants Romneys tax returns, but how does he get away with NOT releasing his college transcripts, his REAL birth certificate? This country is headed for another Civil War and all because of the scumbag idiot’s voted in 3.5 years ago. The hollywood jerks are in the same boat as he is. Who in their right mind would spend 40K on a dinner to support this loser. Other losers, that is!!!!! Clooney can rot in hell with him….oh wait, he doesn’t even live in this country he lives in Italy!!! What does that tell you? The media should be ashamed of themselves as well. Their biased and for what reason I don’t know. Whose paying off who? Friggin scumbags, all of them……government, idiot movie stars that support the moron, his bigot wife who enjoys spending the taxpayers money on her vacations, and wow, lets just take the whole damn relative pack with us while we’re at it, and the MEDIA. iT’S SICKENING!!!!!!!
As his father and mentor would say, honesty and compassion are a weakness and a hindrance in making the hard decisions for the betterment of the people. or as his wife would say,,,, It’s sorta like you have to crack a few heads to make a cake….. YouknowwhatImean Ya’ll… CRACK!
Obama never went to Israel until Romney went not too long ago. I wonder if obama is going to now help his brother now that something is said about it. That is how liberals are. They want to spend other people’s money and not their own. Liberals are sick in spirit and selfish at heart. They claim to want to help others but their motivation is out of greed for more money and power. They are working for the communists in power now. We call them “useful idiots”.
Besides being narcissistic in the extreme, he appears to be a hedonist. Nobody matters ultimately to him but him. Otherwise, he has no personality of his own. He just wears different masks to suit the occasion. I read in “The Amateur” that there was a state dinner party that liberal historians were invited to (no conservatives, thank you) and one of the guests spoke to author Edward Klein about it under condition of anonymity (probably to avoid retribution from Obama) about it. The conversation turned to great presidents from our country’s history, and it was as though Obama was trying on each to find his style of “leadership”, as though he were trying on masks for a costume ball. Such a thing would give me the creeps. This man (and I use the term VERY loosely) is a phony and a bumbler- he has no place in government at all. In all the jobs that led to the White House, he was conspicuously absent. He had no interest in the process of government at all- he just liked to get on the floor and make speeches.
He had the audacity to publish a memoir when he was in his thirties, for God’s sake, even though he had no accomplishments to speak of!
I’m not surprised that Barry would not help his unfortunate half-brother- that could be politically embarasing. (sp?) It is also no surprise that he cares not a fig for justice and the rule of law- it would cramp his style and prevent him from attaining his real dream- that of running other people’s lives as HE sees fit, whether he knows what’s best or not. He’s so arrogant that he can’t ever admit that he’s wrong, and he doesn’t learn from his mistakes- he just keeps repeating them.
I know how I’ll vote this November- ANYONE but the Boob In Charge.
What frightens me – and yes, it does frighten me – is the lengths he will go to FORCE himself on others and the perfect willingness of Federal bureaucrats, police agencies and the military to kowtow to him and assault their friends, neighbors and countrymen in his name.
In my younger days I read a lot about the German Third Reich, Hitler and the German government at the time he ascended to power. Hitler had siblings too and did his best to distance himself from them for political reasons. I said to myself none of that can happen here, it is product of a unique set of occurrences and the character of the German people.
Wow, was I wrong! The thing there is that I can understand the comparisons where others cannot because they were forcibly denied the knowledge they need to make good decisions. History, Geography, Sociology and Political Science are NOT subjects that are required of our young today and if they are taught it is a skewed version of the TRUTH that is crammed into them.
Obama was elected through IGNORANCE.
Will he be reelected through outright LIES?
Read the “45 Goals of Communism in America” and the “Cloward-Piven Strategy” and get an education in the direction this country has been going for 50 years now. It IS an education and worth everyone’s time. You’ll see where we are and why we got there.
