We have to be especially careful about believing stuff we want to believe just because it confirms our bias.
I would be just as cautious about accepting one partisan book writer's word as another. The author of this anti-Obama book may be a bigger liar than Obama.
The grandfather detention story was told to Obama by his step-grandmother, and she repeated it herself to the media. So that is not a Barack Obama lie. You can't blame a man for believing what his grandma told him.
The other stuff, I will not just take the word of someone I have never heard of. Whether his name is Obama or Maraniss.
spot on.
they believe him because they want to see Obama this way.
The same thing happened with this guys Book about Clinton.
the right believed ONLY the preceivably negative things in the book.
They are now claiming this author is a dem.
I cant find any evidence of what they claim.
and of course obama didn't want to be seen any which way, he wanted to be seen as what he wanted portrayed or is that just to much for you?
If you wrote a book about yourself you would be amazed at how many people would say your self image was a lie
