What about obama lying about his parents meeting first at the Selma March and getting together, then had him?

He was born 4 years BEFORE the Selma March

Update:

This is according to a interview with Karl Rove on March 27, 2008. He was talking about Obama lying 4 or 5 times now.

Update 2:

On Fox News. I know the fairy tale believers of obama are going to get upset and start calling me names because they also believe in taking the higher ground LOL

Update 3:

Update 4:

Obama told his audience that, because some folks had the courage to "march across a bridge" in Selma, Alabama, his mother, a white woman from Kansas, and his father, a black Muslim from Africa, took heart. It gave them the courage to get married and have a child. The problem with that characterization is that Barrack Obama, Jr., was born on August 4, 1961, while the first of three marches across that bridge in Selma didn't occur until March 7, 1965, at least five years after Obama's parents met

    I agree with your point. Obama definitely seems to have a revisionist history of things. It is disappointing and strange.

    I have a friend named Selma and she marches every five years, so they must have meant her. Yeah dude, that's it. Besides, he misspoke. It was a different march or a second meeting or a reapproachment after an earlier split up. Or he doesn't know when he was born. Not everyone does. He will patch it up and it will be fine because we like him.

    If there is any evidence that he said that, and it hasn't blown up yet, a reasonable strategy on Rove's part would be to mostly save it for later but I'm no political strategist.
