Raised by a white radical woman - whose parents actually moved from the mid-west to Mercer Island WA so she could have a proper education - Mercer Island High School teachers were renowned for belonging to the communist party. His biological father was also a radical - Kenyan. His step father took him to his native home, Indonesia. From age 6 to 10, Obama lived in Jakarta. Age six, Obama attended the Catholic Primary St Francis di Assisi. Much was made of the lie he was educated in a Madrassa - or more accurately a pesantren - this of course was totally untrue. Obama Jnr later attended Model Primary School, Menteng and was registered as a Muslim - as his father was Muslim.He mentions in his book that his mother got a letter from his teacher stating that he was making faces during Koranic studies.. His best friend was named Adi and Adi recalled Obama and his friends wore plastic bags over their shoes to walk through the muddy street during the rainy seasons. Neighborhood Muslims worshiped in a nearby house, which has since been replaced by a larger mosque. Sometimes, when the muezzin sounded the call to prayer, Lolo and Barry would walk to the makeshift mosque together, Adi said. His mother often went to the church, but Barry was Muslim. He went to the mosque,” Adi said. “I remember him wearing a sarong.” Obama spent most his spare time hanging out with Adi and other friends at the home of Yunaldi Askiar, a classmate. They used to play a kind of fencing game using sticks, kick a ball up and down the narrow dirt lanes or go swimming in the river behind the school, said Askiar, 42, a car mechanic. He must have inherited a lot of money as he made several trips back and forth from the US to Kenya and other places. He attended college in the U.S. but as a foreign student who was funded by our government. This is probably why he is failing as a president. He has no connection with the American people at all. He has no idea what freedom, patriotism and love of our country means. |
