"But maybe this is another of Mr. Obama's bizarre uncles in the attic.
For he was either a member of the Red Army or a liar, since Auschwitz was liberated by the Soviet Army.

Does Obama really think a crowd of WWII vets won't know the U.S. didn't liberate Poland and Auschwitz? Were his uncle and grandfather "typical white people"?
This is no less outrageous than Hillary's "sniper" fiasco. Dumbo really stuck his ears in it this time!

Watch it.
Al Gore's quote was repeatedly taken WAY out of context.
What he stated was:
"During my service in the United States Congress I took the initiative in creating the internet. I took the initiative in moving forward a whole range of initiatives that have proven to be important to our country's economic growth and environmental protection, improvements in our educational system."
None of which claims that he "invented" the Internet.

If what he said isn't true, then he'll probably say his uncle is STILL hiding up in the attic, and hiding very darn well. Maybe Hillary can say his uncle took sniper shots at her? Well, WHEN are politicians and Jihadists going to learn that IN the Information Age, you HAVE to be truthul? WHEN!?! Taqqiya no longer works, O servant of Allah. Your cover has been BLOWN... thanks to the three English versions of the Quran on-line.

Well, his Uncle hid Anne Frank, so maybe that's where he got confused about the attic.

OK folks, he meant to say Buchenwald, not Auschwitz. Sloppy, but not the same thing as being a compulsive liar. According to Ben Smith at Politico, Obama's "great uncle was a member of the 89th Infantry Division that liberated the Ohrduf camp, part of Buchenwald and, according to the Holocaust Museum, the first concentration camp liberated by U.S. troops."

Sen OBama is a product of the finest school system of higher education in America; the Ivy League. So if he makes small mistakes about the facts of which army liberated which concentration camp during WW2 he can be forgiven for it is no big thing. It is just a misunderstanding.
Also in that he doesn't know the difference between Gen Zhukov's Red Army of WW2 and Gen Patton's US Third Army is ok also; I mean after all, aren't all armies the same.
I truly hope he knows the philsophical differences between Osama bin Laden's alQaeda, Ho Chi Min's NVA and the US Armed Services; if not it could get confusing when he decides to withdraw 'our troops' from Iraq.
Hummmm.... Kinda raises the question if he knows the difference between Poland and Iraq doesn't it.

My great great...Uncle was President Wilson. Does that mean I am more qualified than Obama? Probably not. However, the fact that I am not a complete moron does. That and I still have my balls.

What has Barack Obama done? Let's see....
1. Ran for state office, using dirty tricks to get all his opponents' names off the ballot.
2. Became the "pet" of Emil Jones Jr., who hand-fed him hundreds of bills to sign as sponsor - without even reading them.
3. Get vaulted into the US Senate over an unelectable Republican candidate.
4. Proceed to feed massive amounts of pork to Jones Jr.'s district, among others.
5. Become Chair of the committee exercising oversight in Afghanistan. That committee hasn't held a single meeting since he became chair of it.
Oh yes, such great and varied achievements......

If a person doesn't know American history then why in the world would any one want them for a leader. Maybe he didn't write his speech but if he knew is history he would have corrected that as he spoke.

Lets review:
Major reasons presented so far for rejecting Obama:
His middle name is Hussein.
He attended a church with a crazy pastor.
He gaffed there were 57 states.
He knows some former hippies.
And now; he confused Buchenwald with Auschwitz while praising his soldier uncle on Memorial day.
Someone, ...I don't know. I don't think the cons hearts are in this. Maybe the last 8 years were too easy; maybe they just are not enthused.
Got anything else?

Actually, I think Obama got this one right.
He was just mistaken about which relative it was; it wasn't his grandfather who liberated Auschwitz and Treblinka, it was his UNCLE JOE!
