Obama - Auschwitz, give me a break?

I realize that people use stories and nursery rhymes to make a point... but isn't "making up" a story about your war hero uncle (not even going to touch the Obama v. McCain war hero thing) kind of twisted?

Russian troops liberated the camp... no record of U.S. troops entering the camp has ever been discovered. Are we to believe that Obama is simple a crafty speaker and merely using these little stories to solidify a point about the need to provide veterans with better mental health care???

Wake up people!!! Hillary, McCain, Ron Paul... none of them are tossing out garbage like this. How can you die hard Obamites still stand behind this guy!?!

Update:

Don't post ridiculous criticism that doesn't even respond to the question if you don't like it. Take your sobbing to some liberal blog... no one here needs to hear it. As for correcting himself... you're just proving my point. Die hard Obamites to the end, no matter what. What's your point? Okay - screwed up the name... huh, I guess that whole uncle part was just... more of that amnesia kicking in??

Update 3:

Amen Pat - you got the drift. I think Marcia below you missed the boat on this one though...

Update 4:

Awesome link Freedle... simply awesome. Factual and she's even got links to her sources. I love it!

    He isn't very good at kissing jewish *** and really flubbed it up. What kind of amateur staff must he have not to have that line vetted?

    I don't know if any of it is true and don't really care. There are enough other reasons to vote against him.

    For the record, McCain really sucks too. Fortunately, I'm not obligated to vote for either. If there was any chance of Obama winning in this state, I'd vote McCain just to vote against Obama but McCain will win my state without me.

    For those that want to say that it was a one time mistake... http://michellemalkin.com/2008/05/21/barack-obama-...

    Obama is the Dan Quayle of the 2008 election. Can he spell potatoe?

    Two different camps in two different countries liberated by two different invading countries' armies. Simple mistake? Or an improperly vetted lie?

    Is this what an Obama presidency would be like? We'd just have to ignore anything he had to say and just wait for a clarification from a spokesman. Or is it just that he and the staff realized that he again stepped in a great pile of **** and tried to back away from it?

    Damn, I just love elections and this one is going to be very entertaining. Obama is going to melt down and it will be fun to see. Hell, maybe McCain will get pissed and spew venom. lol

    Because, obama is a human, he makes mistakes, he meant to say Buchenwald (boo-can-vald) but honestly he was probably trying to remember the concentration camp and thought of the first one that comes to mind, Auschwitz. I do not support Obama, I just like him better than the others, Ron Paul doesn't have a chance. Hilary Clinton is a stupid bimbo that can't keep a handle on her man, and now expects to run the country. And McCain supports domestic torture against americans, between hitler, an SS guard, and the devil, you take your pick, I pick the SS guard, the lesser of the 3 evils.

    My, my I guess the pot got caught calling the kettle black.. no pun intended. the Obama camp was all over Hillary when she said something she shouldn't ... the press still talks about it.... but little old lying Obama claims this uncle who apparently single handily(joke) saved the Jews at Auschwitz.. and guess what .. the media is giving him a pass.. he was tired.. he misspoke.. etc etc.

    Why is that. How I hate the media.. what a bunch of hookers they turned out to be... highest bidder and they drop their pants.

    All I ask is they be fair.. they do not have to praise my candidate.. but for God's sake be fair. I'm afraid I, and many, many others I know.. will just simply stop watching CNN and MSNBC.. ans stop supporting their sponsors...I have more integrity than to be sold the bill of goods they are selling.

    Shame on them..

    Yep. It wouldn't be so bad if he did is just once in a while but he is lying so routinely now, people are starting to overlook him. Pitiful.

    If you are running for President and want to tell a story about an Uncle who helped liberate the Jews, you should at least have the sense to present the story correctly to a Jewish audience. You Obamiaks need to stop making excuses for him.

    The fact is Obama has a very good chance of NOT being elected this November but I'm loving the attention, Hate, and pure FEAR we have recognized in America. Change will come some day.

    The truth is it happened Whether I say something happened in San Francisco or Oakland .Big Deal LOL

    Wow...I never knew that making a mistake recounting someone else's memories was as bad as making up an entire lie about your own experiences.
