Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

This AP article about Obama's 'Grandmother' is the kind of distorted MSM coverage of Obama that makes me deeply suspicious of who he really is and who is backing him.

You have to get down to the last line, to find out that the woman is not actually his grandmother. This woman and her chickens have been in so many photos and videos, that you might wonder if Obama has no actual relatives in Kenya. But then the article quotes Obama's half sister, Auma. Interesting, why not her picture. The article is quick to tell you that the grandmother who is not a grandmother, is a Christian. Get that she's a Christian, not a Muslim, so don't be unfair to Barack by calling him by his actual name, or show the real photographs of Obama dressed in Muslim garb.

What is Auma's religion? Strange, ther article didn't see fit that Obama's actual relatives are Muslims, unlike the grandmother that isn't a grandmother.

Last year, Obama was interviewed by Nicholas Kristof of the New York Times, and Obama is reported to having said that the most beautiful sound in the world is the Arabic calling of prayers. He then recited an Islamic prayer in near perect Arabic accent. Now leaving aside whether Kristof really knows what an near perfect Arabic accent is, I'm mystified how someone who left Indonesia at a very early age, and always lived with non-religious families, can remember a prayer to recite, in Arabic nonetheless. I know I couldn't recite anything I learned at that age, unless it had been reinforced in later years.

What of Obama's present religion. By his own words, Obama was told by his adviser at the law firm he was employed to be a community organizer, that he would be going into churches often, and they would want to see him in church, so he complied.

Now I don't know if Obama is a closet Muslim, and I don't think being a Muslim should disqualify someone from being President. But the curious censorship of Obama's real ties to Muslims makes me very uneasy and suspicious.

I'm actually more interested in what Obama actually did as a community organizer. It's fair games, as he has already said that that experience helps qualify him for elective office. I suspect if people knew what he actually had done as a community organizer, fewer people would be voting for hope and change.

Lastly, why has no one in the press printed a full accounting of his home purchase, and Rezko's involvement. If anyone did, there could be no doubt that Obama could possibly not know that Rezko was doing him an immense favor.

Oh, I almost forgot, my favorite part of the article, was the sweet little grandmother having to borrow a TV because she didn't own one. Come on, Obama is a millionaire, couldn't he spare $10 to buy the sweet woman a black and white TV? Anyway, the woman has been interviewed so many times, that surely the reporters have paid her something, no? How about the AP doing a story on Obama's half brother Abongo (Roy) Obama, a radical Islamist? I think I answered my own question.
