Mr. President, we have a problem

Has anyone beside WND spoke about this? It should be all over the MSM, oh wait, what am I saying?
Everyone knows that when people can't keep their stories straight, they are obviously lying. His story is so embellished too....

The country continues to draw inspiration from what you've done. I should note, just personally, I grew up in Hawaii, as many of you know, and I still recall sitting on my grandfather's shoulders when those capsules would land in the middle of the Pacific and they'd get brought back and we'd go out and we'd pretend like they could see us as we were waving at folks coming home. And I remember waving American flags and my grandfather telling me that the Apollo mission was an example of how Americans can do anything they put their minds to.

Wow, what a great inspiring LIE!!!
He was in Indonesia at the time of this and this proves it ..
According to White House transcript www.whitehouse.gov...

He engaged in an exchange with the Indonesian reporter, who informed the president he lived 300 meters from the house Obama grew up in.
"Is that right?" asked Obama
"Yes, Menteng Dalam," replied the reporter.
"Except now it's all paved," said Obama.
"Yes, it's all paved," the reporter said.

So which is it young feller? Hawaii or Indonesia?

It is clearly noted that until the age of 6 Obama lived in Hawaii.
So, he wouldn't have been there for the original splash downs, but he would have been there for the later mission splash downs. e moved back to hawaii as a child as well. In 1971 Obama returned to Honolulu and would have been witness to apollo 15, 16 and 17 from america.

Obviously I think this whole thing is silly, however there is one line in Obama's quote that caught my eye.

"we'd go out and we'd pretend like they could see us as we were waving at folks coming home"

Often when people tell stories which are either fabricated or embellished childhood "memories" the word "pretend" is inserted and can mean that the "memory" is either not clear, or a complete fabrication.

Does that mean he lied?

Not really.

Does it matter?

Not at all.

It occurs to me that maybe obama doesn't even know he's lying,all he probably knows is what his less than chaste mother and radical father told him.Maybe he was lied to by the people in his life.How many bro's and sis's does he have?does any one really know about their childhood or are their memory's formed by what they're told by their caregivers and family?

Summary: You think Obama is some sort of Manchurian Candidate? Also, did you just call his mom a whore? How was his father "radical?"

His mother had two kids and was married twice. My mom has two kids and was married twice. I don't know where you get off calling his mom some kind of whore. His father was a governmental economist and I don't see anything in his biography that would justify you calling him a "radical" anything. The funniest part of this whole thing is that his father was actually a strong critic of socialism, writing a paper criticizing governmental economic planning.

I truly hope this is the last thread I post on this topic as it is starting to become more and more obvious to me that .....

I can help you there...you can start by ceasing to treat World Net Daily like a legitimate news source...

WND is worse than the National Enquirer...they at least actually do reporting once in a while, like the Edwards affair.

WND is a right-wing, christian fundementalist, often blatenly anti-semitic, unsourced, political rhetoric drivel factory where bloggers unsourced and opinions junk gets posted posing as news ..WND ...just research it for goodness sake..

Enough with acting like WND is even a remotely legitimate news source.

THREAD DONE...BS DEBUNKED.

I grew up in Hawaii, as many of you know, and I still recall sitting on my grandfather's shoulders when those capsules would land in the middle of the Pacific and they'd get brought back and we'd go out and we'd pretend like they could see us as we were waving at folks coming home

He NEVER said he saw the Apollo Capsule land...he says "THOSE CAPSULES" NOTICE THE PLURAL? He is talking about the PROGRAM ...NOT THE SPECIFIC MISSSION.

Unless you are saying that the first mission to the moon involved several capsules splashing down...otherwise what do you think he is saying?

Obama returned from Indonesia to Hawaii where his grandfather lived in 1971.

Apollo 14 splashed down in February, 1971
Apollo 15 in August, 1971,
Apollo 16 in April, 1972
Apollo 17, on December 19th, 1972

He could have witnessed the capsules brought to port in any or potentially all of these splash-downs from Hawaii atop his grandfathers shoulders.

But you guys just KEEP ON BACK-SLAPIN EACHOTHER and TREATING WND LIKE IT IS A NEWS SOURCE...Despite how they continue to LIE TO YOU and POST STORIES THAT ANY RATIONAL PERSON CAN DEBUNK IN SECONDS.....YOU GOBBLE IT UP SHAMELESSLY AND WITHOUT EMBARRASMENT ..then GET thoroughly DEBUNKED...AND THEN you don't reflect, but rather QUITELY WAIT FOR THE NEXT LIE TO BE FED TO YOU SO YOU CAN POST IT HERE.

DENY IGNORANCE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD ...HAVE SOME SELF RESPECT.

Well said. The worst thing is how disappointing their sensationalists headlines become as soon as we hear the source.

Obama didn't move to Indonesia until 1967 and returned in 1972. The Apollo program ran between 1961 and 1972, including numerous manned flights with capsules. The Gemini program had 10 manned space flights between 1965 and 1966. It's quite reasonable that he remembers a few of these, both from before he left and soon after he got back.

I missed this ...thank you for the clarification. That combined with the schedule of splash downs above....Obama was present in Hawaii for several of the splash downs. In total him and his grandfather could have gone to port to watch anywhere from 10 to 15 capsule retrievals.

I think you can expect the sound of crickets...as always happens when you debunk this crap...they will slink away and wait for the next mound of BS to be handed to them and they will post...and it will get 60 flags...you will disprove it and get a paltry star and then silence.

Silence or personal attacks....they aren't interested in the truth...no light-bulb moments...the facts have nothing to do with it.

After reading through the posts, I (an Obama hater) must say this is nothing...

The only few things that need to happen are his health care reform to be shut down and no types of "tax" increases, and my steam will slowly go away.

Obama never fails to impress me when he speaks off the cuff like this. This brings back memories of Hillary's account of bullets fired by snipers whizzing by her head in Bosnia.

Yah...except Obama was being honest...WND and the Op YOU endorsed wasn't...all that "off-the-cuff" honesty is sooo frustrating isn't it? Probably pretty alien to folks who propagate this stuff.

I gave you a star for this post. We obviously disagree ideologically, but what a breath of fresh air to see an "Obama Hater" that cares about the issues and recognizes BS when they see it.

Bring on the issues....DENY IGNORANT BS.

My goodness, do you guys have a 'ready room' for when Obama threads get made?

Do alarms and klaxons sound and everyone runs to the keyboard?

Could you possibly contrive to be a bit more zealous and reactive?

I was going to avoid this thread until I saw the circling of vultures overhead...

or maybe those were just fuzzy childhood memories....

Is their some place I can throw up again, I think I'm going to puke and puke and puke and then maybe I will finally rid myself of the morons that put this guy (assuming he is human) in office.

Another Obama thread???

Do ya'll have nothing better to do than TRY to discredit another.

Bottom line, his MOTHER IS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN which automatically makes HIM AN AMERICAN CITIZEN not to mention the fact that he was born in Hawaii....lol. Lets see u guys try to dance around that....but, but, but........Hilarious.

BTW, Clinton may have not been perfect but.....He was the only President in U.S. history with a surplus. Ya'll were so quick to condemn him then too simply because he's human. His personal life had nothing to do with his presidency until people started making it personal. Then what yall do with the surplus??? Turned it over to the administration that put us in this predicament.

But I guess that's Obama's fault too. lol

Well, I guess it's all clear to me now, I need to stick with the MSM, more like MSNBC as the most trustworthy source of news for now on. I so appreciate you clearing that up for me as I figured that WND was a waste of time. WND is such a disinfo rag that I suspect they will be out of business soon as the law suits pile up against them for printing lies about The President. WAIT? Although you don't find this a reliable source, why hasn't anybody from this Admin or a Lawyer Rep Obama to have them retract these false stories. Hmm, Maybe just like the National Enquirer with Edwards not filing suit was because there is more true reporting rather then false.

It's okay if members shoot down the source, it's even more okay that you don't like the topic and wish it to go away but please can you explain with out the race card being pulled why Mr. Obama can't seem to get his Birth info, Past events or the correct number of States currently in the United States right. People have a right to question their Authorities, It is our Civic Duty!

This guy's really good!

He just makes it up as he goes along, a new story for every situation, and note his command: he does it with a straight face!

And I thought Carter was a dumbass!

And I though Clinton was a liar!

Wow!

What was that old saying? "You can lie to some of the people all the time, and you can lie to all the people some of the time."

This guy lies to All the people All the time.

It will all catch up one day.

Please actually read the thread. You will look less foolish. The Op has been debunked.

Agreed, about the knee jerk reaction. Focusing on this nonsense rather than a thoughtful approach is not the way we Republicans should go. We accuse the opposing party of the things we are becoming quilty of now.

Kettle Black with the steady stream of postings from Obama hating maniacs.

No need for a "ready room" Max. Just the ability to read the OP and a rational mind to spot the BS and the 60 seconds to it takes to examine the facts...

Thats the funniest thing about these threads...they don't require a genuis or even 5 minutes of examination or research to debunk...yet your camp continues to rally around each new pile of BS anew with some form of scrambling desperation.

....damn the facts, screw the truth, this man must be stopped. The American public is dumb, feed them whatever we like. It should be the GOPs motto.

Without respect for truth or honesty the American public will continue to appropriately view the far right and GOP machinery as NOT CREDIBLE, DISHONEST PROPAGANDISTS...and yes these threads on ATS are just one representitive lesion of many upon the diseased GOP party.

For the nations sake...get well soon.

I will advice you to re-read the T & C... If you have proof that my thread is DEBUNKED then you need to provide proof of such a link to support it.

The problem with you Obamabots, just like those who supported Bush can't stand anything said about your boy! Provide proof that WND is printing lies.

Exactly, and as we keep seeing, when basically someones life is an entire lie, eventually that person slips up and trips over those lies. This guy is only 6 months in and he's falling on his face left and, well lefter. We're going to be in for one interesting ride if this goes 4 years.

The issue though is that he has an audiance that he plays to and who will back him dispite how fake he is. If he ousted, things may get really ugly.
