How absolutely low and ridiculous.
So for months upon months now Rush Limbaugh and others have lambasted and joked, to the roaring approving laughter of fans, how Obama says we should be our "brother's keeper" but that his brother lives in a shack and is in a bad part of the world and why doesn't old Obama be his brother's keeper and help his family member out and get HIM out of poverty.
So then we have someone related to Obama granted asylum here. We don't know the facts, yet people are already jumping the gun with suggestions, implications, and assumptions that this was all done based on Obama. However, even assuming that's the case, isn't that just doing what Rush and others have essentially been lambasting him for NOT doing with his brother?
So lets see here...
If he doesn't help his distant family that don't live here he's being a hypocrite for talking about people needing to be their "brother's keeper" and is worthy of ridicule for not using his resources to help his family out.
If someone in his distant family actually does make it into America though, we're to assume and imply immedietely that its because of Obama, and if it is the case that it was because of Obama we should lambast and attack him for using his resources to help his family out.
For the love of christ, this is why hyper partisans always look foolish, because they give up any attempt at individual integrity or insight in exchange for continual attempts at scoring political points. Its actions and attitudes like presented here that make real, legitimate, honest, adult political discourse so difficult in this country.
So when are those facts coming out? And are you saying that it's entirely inappropriate to suggest that Obama's blood line had zero, nada to do with asylum being granted?
Partisanism aside... I'm not willing to voluntarily become naive for the sake of political correctness. :roll:
