    Obama Will Never Be Found At The Center Of A Lie: Staffers Under The Bus Kenyan Uncle

    Obama Will Never Be Found At The Center Of A Lie: White House Throws Staffers Under The Bus To Shield President From Kenyan Uncle Omar Bombshell

    December 5, 2013 by Ben Bullard

    President Barack Obama isn’t to blame for a festering lie about his past – his handlers are.
    On Thursday, The Boston Globe reported that Obama said he did live with his Kenyan uncle, Onyango “Omar” Obama, for three weeks just before young Barack began his career as a Harvard Law student. The White House had told the press in 2011 that the President had never met the man.
    That was an inadvertent lack of diligence on the part of Obama’s staff, said Press Secretary Jay Carney Thursday. “Back when this arose, [White House staff] looked at the record, including the President’s [autobiographical] book, and there was no evidence that they had met,” Carney said.
    “However,” The Daily Caller quotes Carney as saying, “nobody spoke to the President.”
    “I thought it was the right thing to do to go ask him,” Carney continued. “[A]nd the President said that he, in fact, had met Omar Obama when he moved to Cambridge for law school.”
    Flash back to January 7, 2012, when The Boston Globe ran a story about Omar’s legal travails, set against the backdrop of the Obamas’ common Kenyan heritage.
    A solemn figure as he strides into his court appearances, [Omar] Obama never married or had children during the years he has been in the United States, according to his lawyer, P. Scott Bratton. He lives with a Kenyan family in Framingham near the liquor store where he has worked as a clerk for 10 years. Although he has a vast number of relatives living near Lake Victoria in western Kenya, many know nothing of him. He has never met his famous nephew, according to the White House.
    “The White House never moved to correct the record, until the President’s famously private uncle took the witness stand in Boston immigration court two days ago,” the Globe reported Thursday.
    Why not? At the start of an election year, wouldn’t the President want to avoid any political landmines – particularly from the birther crowd – by getting in front of misinformation as quickly as possible instead of letting stories like this sit dormant indefinitely? That he kept quiet about a Boston Globe report that surely must have come to his attention, courtesy of anxious handlers looking toward November 2012, calls into question the President’s own role in allowing the lie to make it through to the Globe’s reporter.
    The 2012 article also mentions that Omar had been living illegally in the U.S. for decades. Omar had a deportation hearing earlier this week – an event brought about by his August 2011 drunk driving arrest in Framingham, Massachusetts. At the hearing, Omar revealed that the future President had, in fact, stayed with him before attending Harvard.
    Omar was granted legal residency by an immigration judge Tuesday, thanks to his “good moral character and a section of federal law that allows him to get a green card because he arrived before 1972.”

    White House Changes Story: Obama DID Live With Illegal Alien Kenyan Uncle Before Going to Harvard



    Michael Miller

    http://mikesright.wordpress.com/

    The White House admitted Thursday that Barack Obama not only knew a Kenyan uncle who faced deportation from the U.S. that it had previously denied he knew, but that he had lived with the uncle in the eighties prior to attending Harvard.
    When asked in 2011, the White House said there was no record of Obama ever meeting uncle Onyango Obama. The Boston Globe reported:
    President Obama acknowledged on Thursday that he lived with his Kenyan uncle for a brief period in the 1980s while preparing to attend Harvard Law School, contradicting a statement more than a year ago that the White House had no record of the two ever meeting.
    Their relationship came into question on Tuesday at the deportation hearing of his uncle, Onyango Obama, in Boston immigration court. His uncle had lived in the United States illegally since the 1970s and revealed in testimony for the first time that his famous nephew had stayed at his Cambridge apartment for about three weeks. At the time, Onyango Obama was here illegally and fighting deportation.
    This testimony directly contradicted the 2011 statement from the White House. Faced with the contradiction, the White house offered the following explanation:
    [T]he press office had not fully researched the relationship between the president and his uncle before telling the Globe that they had no record of the two meeting. This time, the press office asked the president directly, which they had not done in 2011.
    Okay, so call me picky, but why would the White House have categorically denied that Obama had ever met uncle Onyango in 2011without first asking him if he had? (Could Uncle Onyango’s legal problems have been an embarrassment to his nephew?)
    The Boston Globe adds:
    “The President first met Omar (Onyango) Obama when he moved to Cambridge for law school,” said White House spokesman Eric Schultz. “The President did stay with him for a brief period of time until his apartment was ready. After that, they saw each other once every few months, but after law school they fell out of touch. The President has not seen him in 20 years, has not spoken with him in 10.”
    Did he lie? Maybe. The White House will deny it, so what’s the point in even having the argument with them or their microphones in the media? The truth of the matter is that either they lied, or their staff is spewing out information that they don’t know and haven’t double checked. (And don’t even attempt to think we don’t know that ‘no record’ means ‘I am going to use the power of language to avoid blame without admitting guilt.’ That is extremely misleading in a very obvious manner.) If you work for the guy, then you should be responsible to, ya know, do your jobs.
    Call me crazy, but I think they’re equally as bad, and we can’t afford to have a President that is either lying or maintaining a staff that isn’t smart enough to double check their ‘facts.’ Period.
    When it comes time for the next elections, remember that a whole party stood behind this man as their leader. Couple things about that:

    1. Real leaders don’t even have these questions like this come up.
    2. What does that say about his supporters? You know, the ones that have lied over and over about healthcare time and time again?

    If you ask me, you’ve got to be a fool to vote for Democrats. They’ve lied, they’ve put out a downright terrible website that doesn’t function like any normal website humans visit to buy things, they’ve failed to really get the economy going, there’s more gridlock in Congress under their leadership, and we’re only going farther and farther into debt. Please, SHARE this post to help people wake up!

    White House caught in lie ... about Obama's past

    Unfortunately, the lies Obama told about his Affordable Care Act have jaded most Americans to reports of new lies from the White House.

    But this lie is an old one ... with a Kenyan connection.

    You have to wonder how he could have missed THIS in "Dreams from My Father" ...
    ALL IN THE FAMILY

    White House caught in lie about Obama's past

    Now admits president's link to illegal-alien relative


    Published: 2 hours ago



    The Obamacare lies have been all over the news lately. Particularly the one about “If you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan” that millions of American have learned was a falsehood through cancellation notices.

    Today, the White House changed yet another story in a move Fox News described as “at best a misrepresentation” and “at worst a big lie.”

    It surfaced when Obama’s illegal-alien uncle, who came to the attention of authorities when he was arrested for allegedly driving drunk, appeared in court this week. A judge eventually granted Omar Onyango Obama permission to stay in the U.S. because he had been in the country so long.

    The uncle testified during the hearing that his famous nephew had stayed at his Cambridge apartment for about three weeks. At the time, Onyango Obama was in the U.S. illegally and fighting deportation.

    He’s the second sibling of the president’s father to face deportation to Kenya since he took office.

    Zeituni Onyango, the president’s aunt, won asylum in 2010 after a federal official disclosed days before Barack Obama’s historic election in 2008 that she was living illegally in Boston public housing.

    President Obama had written in his memoir, “Dreams from My Father,” that he had met Zeituni Onyango.
    But his relationship with his uncle, nicknamed Omar, was less clear.

    In November 2011, a White House spokesman said he had no record of the two ever meeting. The Washington Post had also reported that scholars believed the two had never met.

    But the story changed Thursday.

    A White House official said the press office had not fully researched the relationship between the president and his uncle before telling the Boston Globe it had no record of the two meeting. This time, the press office claims to have asked the president directly, which it said it had not done in 2011.

    “The president first met Omar Obama when he moved to Cambridge for law school,” said White House spokesman Eric Schultz. “The president did stay with him for a brief period of time until his apartment was ready. After that, they saw each other once every few months, but after law school they fell out of touch. The president has not seen him in 20 years, has not spoken with him in 10.”

    The White House said Obama’s immigration case was handled “without any interference from the president or the White House.”

    Commented Peter Kirsanow at at the National Review blog “The Corner”: “The White House never attempted to correct the record until now, claiming that in 2011 the press office hadn’t actually asked the president himself whether he’d lived with Uncle Onyango.”

    Kirsanow quipped: “Before “‘misspeaking’ (to use the New York Times stylebook) about the president’s relationships, it might be a lot easier if the White House Press Office simply confirmed them with his composite girlfriends.”

    The media found various ways to describe the falsehood in headlines.

    “WH admits Obama briefly stayed with uncle,” said The Hill.

    “After denial, White House now says Obama lived with uncle,” said the Washington Post.

    “President Obama acknowledges having lived with his uncle,” said a Boston report.

    “White House makes big admission about Obama’s uncle,” said The Blaze.

    “White House changes story on Obama’s uncle,” said USA Today.

    And the Globe said, “In reversal, Obama says he lived with uncle.”

    Regarding Obamacare, besides the Obama’s lie about Americans being able to keep their coverage and their doctors, WND reported a Gallup poll showed the entire premise for Obamacare was false, documenting that most Americans were happy with their health-care and their insurance and didn’t believe the system was broken and unfixable would be that the health-care system in the U.S. was disintegrating and needed to be rebuilt by Obama.

    on Gallup Politics that showed Americans “remain generally positive about the quality of health care they personally receive, their health-care coverage and what they pay for health care.”

    That means, talk radio host Rush Limbaugh explained, that the stated reason for Obamacare – the claim that the whole health-care system is broken and unfixable – was wrong.

    “Everybody’s been sold a bill of goods,” he said. “Most people are and have been very happy with the current health-care system.”

    Limbaugh said there was “not a massive national problem with health care in America.”

    “Seventy percent of the American people were happy with the American health-care system,” he noted.

    He said the false information was spread – and repeated – because the administration “wanted to control it, take it over and reform it.”

    If such circumstances had developed among private enterprise, he said, it would constitute “fraud.”

    WND previously reported on Obama’s uncle, who was arrested in Framingham, Mass., after allegedly driving under the influence and nearly slamming his SUV into a police car.

    According to the MetroWest Daily News, Onyango Obama failed a sobriety test after the crash, registering a blood-alcohol level of .14, while the state limit it .08
    Onyango had “red and glassy eyes,” was wobbly legged and was “slurring” his speech, according to police reports.

    He was ordered held without bail on a federal immigration warrant after his arraignment.

    The arrest revealed Onyango’s outstanding deportation orders and his relationship to the president.

    Shortly after his arrest, he told an officer, “I think I will call the White House.”

    More Lies: Obama Lived With Illegal Immigrant Uncle in 1980s

    Christine Rousselle | Dec 05, 2013



    Despite White House claims in early 2012 that President Obama had never met his illegal immigrant uncle Onyango "Omar" Obama, the president admitted today that he did indeed stay with him during a three-week period in law school.
    Omar Obama first made news when he was charged with drunk driving in 2011, and was recently granted permission to remain and work in the United States. At his court hearing he claimed the president lived with him briefly in the 1980s, which contradicted earlier White House claims.
    On Thursday, a White House official said the press office had not fully researched the relationship between the president and his uncle before telling the Globe that they had no record of the two meeting. This time, the press office asked the president directly, which they had not done in 2011.
    “The president first met Omar Obama when he moved to Cambridge for law school,” said White House spokesman Eric Schultz. “The president did stay with him for a brief period of time until his apartment was ready. After that, they saw each other once every few months, but after law school they fell out of touch. The president has not seen him in 20 years, has not spoken with him in 10.”
    The White House said Obama’s immigration case was handled “without any interference from the president or the White House.”
    Never mind the fact that it makes zero sense to not go to a direct source when announcing whether or not two people know each other, but this story just seems a little fishy. I cannot understand why someone would lie about knowing a family member. (I also do not understand why an illegal immigrant with a criminal history would be allowed to stay in the United States, but that's another topic for another article.)
    This makes you wonder what other lies the president has told.

    Obama caught in ANOTHER LIE as Carney tries to spin his way out of it…

    Posted by The Right Scoop on December 5th, 2013 in Politics | 75 Comments

    Jay Carney was asked today by Fox News reporter Ed Henry about the new revelation that Obama stayed with his Uncle Omar when he was at Harvard. Originally the White House said Obama had never met him. So how did the White House get it wrong? Ed Henry explains below:

    Video at the Page Link:

    So we’re supposed to believe that instead of asking Obama if he had ever met his uncle, they just looked at his book and concluded there was no evidence he had ever met him and reported that to the press? They believe we’re stupid enough to believe that?

    C’mon. Obama lied as he does about everything.

    Lie lie lie lie lie. That’s all he does.

    And thanks to his lies about Obamacare everyone knows it.

    Obama lied and his presidency died.

    That will be his legacy. Well that, and the enormous harm he’s done to this country.

    That's a first. He is a liar without equal, but it's a first that he admit it. Obama admits he lied -- he did live with Uncle Onyango Obama. I wonder why Obama would own up to it. You know there is some other motive at work here.

    Onyango Obama was granted a green card Tuesday after living in U.S. illegally for 43 years


    Onyango Obama, left, is seen at a court hearing in Framingham, Mass., after being arrested for drunk driving. The White House acknowledged for the first time Thursday that the president knew his uncle.
    The White House admitted Thursday it misinformed the press about Barack Obama's relationship with his uncle, Onyango "Omar" Obama, a Kenyan citizen awarded a green card Tuesday after living in the U.S. illegally for 43 years.
    Despite originally claiming they never met, the White House now says Obama lived with his uncle briefly after moving to Massachusetts in 1988 to attend Harvard Law School.
    The elder Obama, 69, famously told police "I think I will call the White House" in August 2011 after an arrest for drunk driving in Framingham, Mass. The Boston Globe reported in January 2012 the White House claimed the two men never met.
    The relationship was unknown to nearly everyone. A 2011 Washington Post report relayed that "[s]cholars who have studied Obama's family said they do not think he has ever met his uncle Omar."
    [REPORT: 'Climate of Fear' for Press Under Obama]
    The White House's clarification Thursday, attributed to spokesman Eric Schultz, says:
    "The president did stay with him for a brief period of time until his apartment was ready. After that, they saw each other once every few months, but after law school they fell out of touch. The president has not seen him in 20 years, has not spoken with him in 10."
    The Boston Globe first reported the reversal.
