George Hussein Onyango Obama, Another Long Lost Brother, Can you Spare Some "Change"
They certainly pop out of the woodwork, don't they. I can just see Ramadan Christmas at the White House. HOPE! CHANGE!
BARCK OBAMA'S LOST BROTHER FOUND IN KENYA Telegraph hat tip Cherrie
The Italian edition of Vanity Fair said that it had found George Hussein Onyango Obama living in a hut in a ramshackle town of Huruma on the outskirts of Nairobi.
Mr Obama, 26, the youngest of the presidential candidate's half-brothers, spoke for the
first time about his life, which could not be more different than that of the Democratic contender.
"No-one knows who I am," he told the magazine, before claiming: "I live here on less than a dollar a month."
According to Italy's Vanity Fair his two metre by three metre shack is decorated with football posters of the Italian football giants AC Milan and Inter, as well as a calendar showing exotic beaches of the world.
Vanity Fair also noted that he had a front page newspaper picture of his famous brother - born of the same father as him, Barack Hussein Obama, but to a different mother, named only as Jael.
He told the magazine: "I live like a recluse, no-one knows I exist."
Embarrassed by his penury, he said that he does not does not mention his famous half-brother in conversation.
"If anyone says something about my surname, I say we are not related. I am ashamed," he said.
Wait there's more. Go here.

Ya know... this kind of human-interest (tear-jerker tragedy) story is just the thing that will get Obama elected.

baldilocks has a post about her new website to raise money for the children at the Kenyan school which was named in Obama's honor after he promised to help the school financially.

Obama did not follow through with his promise, baldilocks is now trying to help the children and school.
.
This story along with hers, shows how Obama treats his very own family and people. So how or why would ANYONE trust him to help the American people, strangers to him?

For ten years George Obama lived rough. However he now hopes to try to sort his life out by starting a course at a local technical college.
Job retraining! Obama will fund that, for you George! (But since he's only got a couple of mil, he'll use our money).
George added he was no longer in contact with his mother and said:"I have had to learn to live and take what I need.
So, um, do people in Kenya work? Or do they just "take what they need?" Actually, that sounds like America under Obama, unless you're middle class -- then the government will take what you need.
