The Autobiography You’ve Already Heard . . . a Gazillion Times
By Debbie Schlussel
Yet another Obama memoir is set to be published soon by Simon and Shuster. But it’s not the autobiography of Barack Hussein Obama. It’s that of his half brother George Hussein Onyango Obama, 27, a Kenyan resident. Yes, this is the Obama half-brother who told reporters he lived on less than a dollar a month. The book deal is worth six figures, reports say.
Still, it sounds like an echo chamber. We’ve heard it all before.
* Son of Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. . . . Check;
* A History of Illegal Drug Problems . . . Check;
* Overcame poverty and crime . . . Check;
* Became a community organizer and advocate for the poor . . . Check;
* Middle Name: Hussein . . . Check;
* Muslim . . . Check;
* Born in Kenya . . . Check;
* Raised by his mother and a stepfather . . . Check. Oh, wait, Barack Hussein Obama was mostly raised by his racist, “typical White people” grandparents, while his selfish mother earned her graduate degrees.
Well, it’s still basically the same story.
Like I said, same old story, different first name.
At least the guy won’t have to live on less than a dollar a month anymore, since his stingy, selfish brother won’t help him.
I’m a little confused about the “overcame poverty” part since his quote to Vanity Fair about living on less than a dollar a month, was late last year. I guess that chapter will be entitled: “Overcome Poverty: Get a Book Deal After Your Stingy Bro Gets Elected Prez.”
Wonder what he’ll call the book. I have two suggestions: “The Audacity of Hope,” and “Dreams From My Father.”
Or: “The Audacity of Nope: How My Prez Bro Wouldn’t Give Me a Dime & I Turned it Into a Six-Figure Book Deal.”
Sadly, he’s chosen the title “Homeland,” which, if President Obama wrote it, would also be about Kenya.
That obama is sure a compassionate hypocrite. Hope some good mud comes out of this if that drug dealing bozo gets rich off this crap.
