1990 Vanity Fair Biography On Obama Discovered Stating He Was Raised In Singapore

They have been answered.

You claim they have not, because the answers given were not the answer you want. The answer you want is anything that "exposes" Obama as a fraud, liar, or something else negative.

She told us where it came from; nowhere. She said it was an error on her part. That means it came from her. Get it?

He ran for state senate in 1996. The bio was from a half-dozen years earlier.

Yes, it does. She said it was her mistake. She said no information came from Obama for the bio.

If I say Rochester is the capital of New York, and then admit later that I made a mistake, and Albany is the capital, what else do we need to know? I'm confirming that I am the source of the mistake.

Except that this bio was not presented to Obama for his approval. The writer has said that.

Yes. They probably just got it wrong. Obama WAS raised in Indonesia for a while. Singapore is practically surrounded by Indonesia. It's quite possible they just messed up.

LOL... Color me surprised you've never had a magazine or newspaper article written about you. You don't always get to "fact check" an article that includes information about you.

Hell, I'm basically a nonexistant person on a global scale, but I've had some newspaper, TV, and magazine articles published about me for political stuff, and a few of them contained errors. Sometimes, I requested a correction later, sometimes, I didn't bother.

The only real unanswered question is why you suspect that this is all some pattern of Obama lies, instead of just being a few harmless errors. As I said, birthers have been digging into Obama's past for better than four years now. The fact that they have found only 2 incorrect statements, among millions of biographical statements made about him, doesn't show a pattern of fraud. In fact, it shows a rather remarkable pattern of consistency.

So you are sure Obama was born in Hawaii?

I'm not dodging. I'm simply pointing out the hypocrisy of your position. With Romney, you accept every fact he claims about his biographical information, with absolutely zero confirmation. With Obama, you question everything, despite the fact that 99.999% of sources contain the same information, information which has been verified by official sources not affiliated with Obama on numerous occasions.

Oh, believe me, I know what the issue is. You simply won't admit it.

I just printed (what we think is) misinformation about Romney. Why do you suspect the misinformation about Romney came from me, and that Romney is truthful, but the misinformation about Obama came from him, and he is a liar?

Why the double standard?

 

No they have tried to get away with not answering, I have no idea what the answer is which is why I ask.

She made it up in her own mind, created the idea out of thin air and then put it in his biography? That's not a mistake, that is willful misrepresentation. Did she get fired for such an offense?

She said it was a fact checking error, OK where did that "fact" come from. Someone had to tell her the "fact" she didn't check. Who?

And why did you believe Rochester was the capital, did someone teach you that? Did you read it somewhere? Where did the literary agent get the information about Obama in the first place?

Which is NOT SOP for for such things, I have had several printed about me and that is one of the KEY FACT CHECKING mechanisms and protects them from lawsuits and having to issue retractions and just looking foolish. And not only that it stood after it was published and listed on the website as such until 2007 just before Obama decided to run for President.

But you don't know and again why didn't Obama raise his hand and say "ahhh no that is not true"

Why is it so many have such misinformation about him, or say things about him when they don't know them to be factual?

I have and yes I did.

Well if they had stated you weren't born in the US but in foreign country I can well imagined you would have raised the point that that was not true, or that you had been raised in Mexico when you weren't you would have raised the issue. Why didn't Obama about such a basic vital information?

Because there is a pattern of misinformation, bordering on lies in his own book.

I don't care about birthers, I do care about authorized publications about him and the misinformation that reaps in them.

Convince me otherwise.

Point to me the misinformation that has been published about him by those he authorized to do so.

No you don't YOU won't admit in your desperate attempt to make it solely about whether he was born in Hawaii and since we know he was then all the other misinformation that seems to hound him all his life is of no importance to you.

I don't care about your made up misinformation, post evidence that Romney's background has been misreported and misrepresented throughout his life and you may have a point. Else it is a specious argument.

Because you have presented no source otherwise.

 

The Birthers are still at it I see. Can't find any claim about Obama being ineligible that will stick with the American people, so now the Post-Birthers are trying to claim that Obama misrepresented himself(but only in obscure publications or only in one of half a dozen major ones)

First the silly brochure mistake- which the Post-Birthers seem to think is similar to the Dead Sea Scrolls as evidence that Obama misled people about where he was born- even though every major publication before and after this minor pamphlet showed Obama as being born in Hawaii.

Now the Post Birthers want to pretend there is something nefarious about the Vanity Fair article? I don't think even the Post Birthers have been able to figure out their convoluted rational as to why Obama would have wanted someone to think he was raised in Singapore instead of Indonesia, or why in every other publication the same year he is noted to have been born in Indonesia.

Birthers...Post Birthers.....still not able to accept the 2008 election. Lol

 

The boy doesn't know where he was born, where he grew up when and where his parents met.

I swear, if it isn't on a teleprompter, that boy is ignorant of his own life.

 

I love it when the racists come out and show their true 'colors'


Chief Gillespie (Rod Steiger): "You're sure of yourself, Virgil. Funny name for a (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*) boy from Philadelphia. What do they call you up there?

Virgil (Poitier): "They call me Mr. Tibbs!"

 

Irrelevant

 

Good to see you come out then.
It's of no surprise that you instantly went the racist route. That's what racists do.
However, had you gone the responsibility route you would see that calling obama a man would be erroneous.
Since a man takes responsibility for there action, obama can be nothing but a boy that tries to blame everyone else for their mistakes.
Oh, but he loves to take credit. Even for things he had little or nothing to do with. But, when it come time to accept blame all you hear from it "the previous administration" or "the republicans in congress" or "the TEA party".
So, obama is like a screaming, petulant child. And, come November, your BOY is going to get spanked.

Suck on that, racist.

Shut it, racist.
No one cares what comes out of your racist mouth.

I love it when the racists come out and show their true 'colors'- and then try to rationalize why they call a 50 year old black man 'boy'.

I think Virgil Tibbs said it best....

Save it, racist.

We're tired of your always interjecting racism where non exists.

 

Guess you don't like being outed.

No you don't, this isn't about his birth it is about the numerous misrepresentations about him and his life.

Learn the difference.

 

The salient question. And you can't answer it can you. Did they just guess? Did they just decide to make something up? The information they used came from somewhere, and by they I mean the several times such misinformation has been published about him. Yes that is QUITE curious. But do keep your head in the sand.

 

Guess again.

I have little time for ignorant racists.

 

2 errors that were corrected, among millions.

this remains a non issue.

 

lol, you aren't fooling anyone.

 

Admit it. You're only voting for obama because he has electrolytes.

 

There is no difference. Birthers and Post-Birthers are mostly the same crowd, and have the same objective, and the same disregard for the facts.

Can't find any claim about Obama being ineligible that will stick with the American people, so now the Post-Birthers are trying to claim that Obama misrepresented himself(but only in obscure publications or only in one of half a dozen major ones)

I have no clue what you mean, but its good to know you have a sense of humor.

 

Thus it is always so in the mind of Conspiracy theorists.

I hit my hand with a hammer last week. Why did I hit my hand- I think it was a mistake. And I can remember once when I asked for directions, and they were the wrong directions- I foolishly thought it was just a mistake from the guy at the 7-11- little did I know that we must look for the reasons behind the reasons for mistakes.....

Birthers.....Post Birthers....Conspiracy Theorists and just Obama haters in general.

LOL

 

And how they were made and the source of the information they were derived from was what........................? Why is there so much misinformation floating around about him even as late as 2007? Why didn't he correct it from the get-go?

 

Night and day.

ROTFLMAO, oh now THAT is rich. I am the one discussing the FACTS and how they have been so misrepresented throughout his life and the FACT that we don't know why or how this misrepresentations came about and you just want to disregard it all.

Where have I said anything about his ineligibility. HE IS ELIGIBLE. Got it, clear now?

Where did you get the idea Vanity Fair is an obscure publication?

When you want to discuss it with me let me know, else go discuss it with birthers since that's all you seem capable of.

 

What conspiricy?

I have no idea what hitting your hand with a hammer has to do with a President having so much misrepresentation about his life being printed and allowed to stand for so long.

So where did Vanity Fair and the literary agent get their information from?

What conspiracy?

 

There isn't "so much misinformation". There were 2 errors among millions. This is a non issue.
You aren't fooling anyone
