If you count the 27th as the 1st night – then that was 10 days before the article was published

You are correct. I missed that date within the article but caught the erroneous date given in the caption under the accompanying photo.

It appears the Akron Beacon Journal can’t keep it’s story straight between the text and the photo caption.

Fooled again. :-(

Caption under photo:

Martin Marshall (right) recounts the attack by a group of teens on himself and his family while they were watching a Fourth of July fireworks display in Firestone Park. His daughter, Rachel Hopson, 15, (left) and wife, Yvonne Marshall, listen. (Michael Chritton/Akron Beacon Journal)

I wonder what she was called for those few years in the meantime? (I’d venture some guesses, but I don’t want to get banned)

What am I missing here?

According to the article linked on Drudge…

The Marshalls, who are white, say the crowd of teens who attacked them and two friends June 27 on Girard Street numbered close to 50. The teens were all black.

The conundrum created by his statement makes an assumption that the wife he met in class is Michelle.

If his statement is true, then the wife he is speaking about meeting in class is not Michelle.

Simple Boolean Algebra gives us the answer: There is another Mrs. Barack Obama.

Like his parents who met in the Selma marches four years after Barack Hussein Obama Jr. was born. Must have been an Immaculate Conception, a couple having a child without meeting each other.

Or his father coming to America thanks to President Kennedy, who was inaugurated in January 1961, while Barry Jr. was conceived in November 1960, when Eisenhower was President.

One could forgive a son for getting facts wrong about his father who abandoned him as a 2-year-old. But a husband not remembering where he met his wife? Such an unforgettable experience…love at first sight!

To paraphrase Simon & Garfunkel, young Barry O was singing, “Here’s to you, Miss Robinson”–the Graduate.

Got that?

Also, now that Michelle is walking around in $600 dollar sneakers and clutching $7000 purses, she is really, really, really proud of her country (cue Jefferson’s theme song).

Words Just Words and What Total B.S.

He was a legal intern at the firm, isn’t that kind of like class? (Not really. Darn.)

I got nothing.

Except I find it interesting that Michelle was appointed as his mentor due to common racial factors (was the firm raaacist?) and ended up eventually marrying her intern.

The alternative hypothesis is that he’s so spineless that he’s essentially a chameleon, changing his story to suit his surroundings, and can’t distinguish between his fantasy and reality.

Neither is particularly comforting.

Wasn’t Bernadine Dohrn an attorney at Sidley Austin?

Dohrn worked there, but not as an attorney. IIRC, she didn’t have an Illinois license to practice law because of her past criminal history (not only was she a terrorist like boyfriend Billy Ayers, she was also a fraudster and should have been in prison for the thievery and other crap she was involved in in New York.

Sidley, Austin seems to attract (and hire) a lot of unsavory individuals.

Show off.

All of a sudden, “landing in the middle of anti-aircraft fire” became the hot news item of the day, interspersed with pictures of Hillary accepting flowers from a peaceful girl, etc.

I truly believe the Democrat party doesn’t control the media — the media controls the Democrat party. Any time they want to take down Obama, they can. They won’t — but they certainly could.
