Obama: "My Uncle Helped Liberate Auschwitz"

Apparently, Obama's uncle served in the Soviet Army... Because Auschwitz is in Poland and was liberated by the Soviet Army on January 27, 1945.

I blame the gaff on Obama's age....In all seriousness, I do give him credit for trying to relate to history...and perhaps his Uncle was attached to a unit that was involved in the liberation of some other concentration camp and Obama simply confused that camp with Auschwitz. We will need to do a little digging on that Uncle to verify that Obama's didn't just make up the entire story... like Hillary dodging sniper fire.

UPDATE: OK, it's now being reported that Obama's staff are working to correct the record: Obama now says it was not his Uncle, but Great Uncle who served in a unit that was involved in the liberation of...not Auschwitz, but a satellite camp of Buchenwald, another, much smaller concentration camp which was indeed liberated by US forces. OK lets assume that this version is correct.

So what harm is a little exaggeration between friends? I do find it interesting that Obama is suddenly taking such a keen interest in his mothers side of the family after attending 20 years at an "afro-centric" church that taught hate-whitey.

Fidel Castro Endorses Obama: Of course, Obama can't control who endorses him, but he must at least wonder why every terrorist organization, every Islamic radical and communist regime is endorsing him. Perhaps they are just falsely projecting their own beliefs on to Obama...but why would they feel comfortable doing that?

Obama: We must isolate... and engage Chavez. Apparently, he fails to see the contradiction... or we just fail to understand his oh-so complex nuance.
