Just got an email about Obama lying when he said his father served in WW2?
His dad or stepdad were only about 5 during WW2! How stupid are we to believe everything he says without checking it out?

No on his fathers side and for that matter his step fathers side none of them would have ever served America I believe he was talking about his mothers father now those people took him in and raised him and I do believe his mother father served in WW2 but on his father side they would never do anything for America those people just think there here to drop kids and have America take care of them

He never said his father or his stepfather served in WW2, hear.
So you need to delete that lying e-mail and go out there and find out the truth for yourself.

His grandfather, who helped raise him, served in WWII.
Like most politicians, he seems to occasionally mis-speak. Sometimes they even write notes on their hands, claim to have invented the internet, or can not properly pronounce the word "nuclear." Show me a candidate who never does any of this and I'll show you a snow fall in hell.

Are you sure you read it right? It was his grandfather that served in WW2.He was mainly raised by this grandfather.

My guess is he meant to say Grand-dad or he thinks of him as his father..That's the grandfather who took him in and raised him,the only family who helped him,.and the grandfather who was married to the grandmother Obama called a "typical white woman" the one he didn't bother to visit on her death bed because he was too busy running his campaign. Obama also "misspoke in Selma when he , claimed, passionately ,that the Selma peace movement "got him born,don't tell me I'm not connected to Selma "and blah ,blah,blah....he thought American's are too stupid to know he was born in 61 Selma was 65...and even with his ever present 3 teleprompters he mispronounced "corpsman" 3 times !!!!!! and he's the CIC !!! His lies are legion !!!!!!

That was 2 years ago and he retracted that statement explaining that he meant his great-uncle was in the war.

That was one thing that slipped his mind that needed hiding. He hid his birth certificate, his so called transcript form Harvard, his school loans, heck the list goes on. He believes that you're only a liar when you can be proved to be lying. That is his complete moral fiber.
