Michelle Obama's Father NOT buried at Burr Oak

The messiah can have half a dozen different birthplaces and birht hospitals so why can't Michelle say her father was buried in at least as many cemeteries? She can change were he was buried to make the most sympathy points she can wherever she needs them.

The Obamas have proven to be compulsive liars. Why would someone lie about such a small detail?

I was told there would be a day of reconing for all the misdeeds and greed that brought our great nation to it's knees. USA - too big to fail? Not Sustainable? The core issue has not been dealt with causing more foreclosures, more economical strife, more layoffs and the cycle continues. So I say if the actual issues that caused the Oct 2008 Stock Market Crash are not our primary objective. Dealing with turning that around - whatever means necessary. Then all these issues that I feel are smoke screens, do not even matter. Keep the focus on the real issues. Stay the course. Don't loose your direction. 1) deal with the necessary issue - economic recovery. 2) a day of reconing. Who was actively, knowingly involved at what level & what do we do about it? Judicial Department.

What kind of nut-job would lie about where their father is buried? Unless they had a sinister motive........

Re: "but Obama is a "failure" for not cleaning up the mess in less than six months."

He isn't expected to have it cleaned up yet, but he's expected to implement policies that move the economy in the right direction. So far, he hasn't done that.

Deregulation caused this problem, but Obama won't regulate the financial industry. He's letting them do whatever they want--with our tax dollars.

Economists are saying that this will be a jobless recovery. So Wall St will get its money back but Americans will still be out of work.

So it is a natural question to ask and the WH is simply corrected the initial misstatement they apparently made that said that Michelle had a relative in that cemetery. Not a big deal.
=========

It isn't a big deal, but it made news. It was certainly a detail the White House should have gotten right the first time.

OBMN, I often appreciate your comments, but this one seemed unnecessary to me. I am sure that once the story broke about the terrible terrible desecration at that Chicago cemetery, which as I understand it is a predominately black cemetery and in the bad old days was THE only cemetery where blacks could be interred in Chicago, that someone from the press asked the White House about whether anyone connected to the First Family was buried there. There have been other stories about whether Emmett Till was buried there and some other well-known black Chicagoan.

So it is a natural question to ask and the WH is simply corrected the initial misstatement they apparently made that said that Michelle had a relative in that cemetery. Not a big deal. I'm relieved that the Robinsons do not have to deal with the heartache of thinking the body of a beloved relative might have been mistreated and my heart goes out to the families who ARE affected by this cruel crime.

Hilarious comments. It took Bush eight years to run the economy into the ground (while sending troops to Iraq that should have been going to Afghanistan), but Obama is a "failure" for not cleaning up the mess in less than six months.

OMG,

This is deceit at the very highest levels of government. If they are covering this up, WHAT ELSE ARE THEY COVERING UP? Maybe they moved the body? Maybe it's not even there anymore. What happened to the body?

Sounds like the CIA is in on this. Probably has to do with the Kennedy/911 cover-up.

I think I saw the words - "Obama is My Messenger" in the smoke from the 911 fire.

The capacity for stupidity is without measure in this United States.

Wow--two comments already condemning Obama. Let's see...if you assume they did knowingly lie about his burial plot instead of making a simple mistake-------what are you a complete air-head and don't know where your own father is buried---simple mistake...hahahaha! or does Obama need MORE TIME to figure out just where michelles father is buried.

My, but the conservatives are cranky today, and yes, this liberal has a job, thanks for your concern.

wow! liberal left wing nutcases will use any lowlife tactic to divert attention away from the failing policies of Obama. Al Sharpton seems quiet about this...hum! wonder why.

Wow--two comments already condemning Obama. Let's see...if you assume they did knowingly lie about his burial plot instead of making a simple mistake, let's compare lies: burial plot with no victims vs. war in Iraq with 100,000 victims. Yup, I'd say we're quite a bit better off with this type of misinformation than the previous administration's.

Another lie from Obama's administration? Par for the course, just shocked ABC is running the story

anything to make people stop talking about her failed husband, the laughing stock of the economy..Got jobs???????
