Really Stretching Truth

Drudge today highlighted the Breitbart story containing the startling revelation that Barack Hussein Obama's own literary agent put forward the claim that Obama was born in Kenya. Joel B. Pollak discovered a 1991 promo for the future US President proudly boasting of Obama's esoteric provenance. Well, that was a publicist hawking his product way back then but evidently as late as 2007, claims of a heritage that would have excluded Obama from the Presidency (because of foreign birth) were still being circulated to pitch Barry. In any event, if Obama knew he was being promoted with factual inaccuracies more than a decade before his Presidential run, one wonders what other biographical massage has been performed to keep the product shining.
