All American 2012/07/11 11:44:32Yes+4Actually, haven't seen this, but heard about something similar. This and the bio from his publisher stating he was Kenyan born also merits further investigation. I think he may have been using this as an advantage like Elizabeth "How" Warren tried when she claimed she had Cherokee ancestors.




















The article is real, yes, but the headline and first sentence was added at a later date, by a different person (who spelled his name wrong [Barrack]).
Go to the LexisNexis archive of global news sources and search for "Jack Ryan Abandons Senate Bid" and you'll find the original article.
Sheesh, I wish people would do their research.
If the birthers have so much "proof", why are they passing around false information, like this?
You seem to know so much about this article. If the person who added the headline and first sentence at a later date and misspelled Obama's name, why is the name under the photo which you say is a legitimate article, spelled the same way it is spelled in the first sentence? And why is this archived at the site I read? I really do wish people would do their research - of course, it does no good as everybody today lies and cheats anyway.
Sunday Standard is a tabloid shown many times to be inaccurate. So someone stole the article and added the new headline and first sentence. Too bad you didn't continue researching...
Or are you just embarassed because you misread what I said and came back with a response that didn't have anything to do with my discussion?
You're the one who should be embarrassed for not understanding simple concepts. Like the photo in this blog. Too tough for you to find out where the paper is from? Keep spinning your wheels -- like your Avatar shows.
If you don't give a rat's... about the picture, why did you reply to the question? This question is about the WORDS accompanying the picture. If you don't care about the WORDS, you have nothing to say. And you said it so much.
I brought up Snopes. I don't care how you feel about the site. It says the WORDS are false. You don't know otherwise. The paper they appear in is a KENYAN paper, hardly the standard for the U.S. Besides which, as a good RW, you disbelieve on principle everything "msm" says. So you SHOULD disbelieve what a KENYAN paper says.
Logic doesn't take up much space between your ears -- and there's a LOT of room for it. Put your sox in a drawer and free up space.
Unlike you, I haven't drawn conclusions -- I merely pointed out that a fact-checking source says the WORDS are bunk, which imo means more info is necessary. Don't worry -- I won't expect you to provide any. You obviously have enough trouble getting your shoes on the correct feet.
Maybe this will make you feel better about yourself since this old news is still sticking in your craw. It's from the Drudge Report ... so we have two sites of opposite ideologies.
Then, as far as we can piece together, conservatives began forwarding around a link to a 2004 Associated Press that was headlined "Kenyan-Born Obama All Set for U.S. Senate." This one is so old, though, that it was debunked way back in 2009 by the Internet's leading email-forward debunker, Snopes.com, as some sloppy headline writing by a Kenyan web site. Still, bigtime bloggers like CNN's Erick Erickson, the Daily Caller's Jim Treacher, Human Events' John Hayward, Gateway Pundit's Jim Hoft, all linked to the story, but with a new twist: they don't believe Obama was really born in Kenya and thus an illegitimate president, but they do think he did something that led to the mistake meaning that he's a liar.
Sorry, not trotting along with you on that.
This question posts a PHOTO of the Sunday Standard -- did you miss it? It's RIGHT AT THE TOP OF THIS PAGE.
Well duh ... I said the same thing to you. What IS your problem?
Do you have the guts or the grace to admit it?
Me a Progressive? Lmao. Both at the idea and at your ignorance for assuming it. Listening to other people and learning from them is valuable imo -- I know you don't understand that, but don't worry. You aren't going to be quizzed on your intellect. There's no need; you've demonstrated amply that yours is the size of a peanut.
At least you put your hand over your mouth when you yawn -- first sign of manners in you.
