Barack Obama Adoption Plans Revealed By His Father In 1961


President Barack Obama's father told federal immigration officials in 1961 that he planned to put his unborn son up for adoption, The Boston Globe reports.

Obama's father, Barack H. Obama, declared his intention while studying at the University of Hawaii during an interview with an immigration officer who had become concerned with Obama's "playboy ways."

The Globe relays the official's recollection of the April 12, 1961 conversation with the senior Obama.

“Subject got his USC wife ‘Hapai’ and although they were married they do not live together and Miss Dunham is making arrangements with the Salvation Army to give the baby away,’’ according to a memo describing the conversation with Obama written by Lyle H. Dahling, an administrator in the Honolulu office of what was then called the US Immigration and Naturalization Service.

1. See, that's what I don't get. Why is he so nice to the Republicans, if they do this constantly?
I don't get it.

6. because if you let other people dictate how you act, then
you've lost what matters most.

What I don't get is why people want to respond the way the republicans do.

3. Who gives a shit? I mean....really.
John Kennedy's father was a whoring pig who disrespected his wife and blatantly screwed Gloria Swanson and other film divas for years. He even had Gloria on the same boat as his family when crossing the Atlantic.

Ronald Reagan's father was a drunken shoe salesman who never paid the bills, and as a consequence RR was forced, with his family to move house almost forty times growing up -- when you can't pay the rent, that's how ya do it.

Gerald Ford's biological father was an abusive drunken fucker who beat the living shit out of his mother. She ran like hell to avoid being killed by the guy. Her second husband adopted him, that's why his name became FORD instead of KING.

Bill Clinton's stepfather was an abusive drunk too.

Barack Obama's father was a drunken shithead loser who screwed around and lied.


Big deal. There's at least one in every family.

If I had to guess, I would surmise that the reason Barack's name is "The Second" and not Junior is because he WAS adopted by that Indonesian dude, and when the relationship with Barack's mom went to shit, he ceded his parental rights to the grandparents, who got the kid's name changed back as close as they could manage--and it was all sealed because he was a minor.

But, even if that IS the case (and I am just speculating) I really could give a shit.

All this latest bit of crap does is demonstrate that ANYONE--even someone with a drunken asshole whoremaster for a father--can become President if they work hard, stay in school, and keep their eye on the prize.

What his stupid father said a half century ago is just...irrelevant.

4. Apparently there is no muck
the R's will not roll around in. I think they are losing their minds. They have no moral, ethical center and think themselves clever when they hurt people. Dragging out something like this does not take intelligence, just a brain that is missing some parts.
