This is merely dirty tricks from the Rove School of Smear.
The Telegraph? A British version of the National Inquirer, but owned by the extreme right wing.
I wonder what would be said if John's illigitimate children from his Vietnam days were trotted out on the 'news' pages?
Rove is at his evil best!
Rove this, Rove that.
How comical.
about as funny as you, Charles. You're both a couple of old, stale jokes.
...f--ked Baraks Mom?
Seriously????
...perhhaps Vanity Fair can yard out one of MCCain's illegitimate children. Then you can all whack off with glee.
SP up to his sick comments again, but guess we need to take it into consideration - probably his way of having sex! Before this campaign is over, everything under the sun on both sides will be ferreted out and displayed for all to see!
I am an Obama volunteer and if this is true I will have to rethink wether I will even vote for him
Sure you are!
it's their site!
Barack Obamas father. A polygamist and an alcoholic left abandoned children all over the world; The jr senator was just another one of them.
Notice how little time the presidential contender has for his own family:
Senator Barack Obama's long lost brother has been tracked down for the first time living in a shanty town in Kenya, reports claimed.
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 has only met his famous older brother twice - once when he was just five and the last time in 2006 when Senator Obama was on a tour of East Africa and visited Nairobi.
The Illinois senator mentions his brother in his autobiography, describing him in just one passing paragraph as a 'beautiful boy with a rounded head'. Of their second meeting, George Obama said: 'It was very brief, we spoke for just a few minutes. It was like meeting a complete stranger.'
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.
'Huruma is a tough place, last January during the elections there was rioting and six people were hacked to death. The police don't even arrest you they just shoot you.
'I have seen two of my friends killed. I have scars from defending myself with my fists. I am good with my fists.'

This brother George's mother's name is Jael.
go read Judges chapter 4 in the bible. Plain as day,
there is Barak and Jael.
I think its weird
Re.This isn't spam, it shouldn't have been removed
It as been posted before. My sincere apologies.
Are we supposed to be responsible for every relative and what they have done or will do - half, step,cousins far removed, great, great aunts, uncles - come on, get real!
'Are we supposed to be responsible for every relative and what they have done or will do '
I donno, do you have a half brother living on a dollar a month?
Are you responsible for your low life relatives and what crazy things they might be involved with?
'Are you responsible for your low life relatives and what crazy things they might be involved with'
I don't have any low life relatives. My father didn't impregnate women and abandon them.
Then what happened to you?
...the fact is, the libnazi drive-by media is FAR more tittilated by this kind of thing than the other news outlets, or any of the republicans. One only has to consider the source of these allegations, blatant drive-by contributors like Vanity Fair, none of who's facts have been confirmed.
One also only has to go to the people section of this website to confirm my thesis. The libnazi media, most of which are losing readers and viewers in droves MUST cater to the folks who are aroused by this kind of story, due to their utter financial desperation. Even Fox bears some responsibility by running a story, although they were not the one's who ran off with the usual libnazi school girl glee to dig this up.
One other point to remember, when the left blames the right for such things, is the stellar example the left set in speaking about every single facet of the Bush families circumstances and how magnanamous they were in dealing with that. I think this is why the republicans do what they do here, due to the stellar example set by the libnazi media who shows such excellent restraint.
