1. What if, what if, what if
One of the children who died in Iraq was going to grow up to be a environmental scientist that would have contributed to a solution to mankind's destruction of the planet?

What if one of the young adults arrested for marijuana was going to become a doctor and saved someone's life?

What if the teenager who couldn't afford college would have designed a cheap energy effecient automobile?

What if, what if, what if

3. Bizarre
He seems to make the claim that the President's mother was a single parent, when in fact she was married at the time of his birth, and his parents did not actually separate until he was two years old.

4. You're right, I noticed that. He is assuming that Obama's
mother and father were not married. He painted her as a 'single mother' who would have had an abortion if it had been available to her. The ignorance of these people is frightening. It seems they are given these 'memos' to read and don't do any thinking on their own, certainly no fact-checking. And we wonder why the country is in the mess it is in.

6. Or that somehow she would have aborted
when Obama was two years old. Mystifying.
