Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

Ya, I know. I had a good friend (he has a MBA in Psychology) tell me once that people who acquire an accent spontaneous like that have a mental illness. But I think that most musicians are mentally ill anyway.

Really? because I do that... I pick up accents easily... I just thought I was gifted.. but being mental makes more sense.

Every time I talk with smurf I pick up a lisp. Don't know why.

"No-one knows who I am," he told the magazine, before claiming: "I live here on less than a dollar a month."

For ten years George Obama lived rough. However he now hopes to try to sort his life out by starting a course at a local technical college.

He has only met his famous older brother twice - once when he was just five and the last time in 2006 when Senator Obama was on a tour of East Africa and visited Nairobi.

The Illinois senator mentions his brother in his autobiography, describing him in just one passing paragraph as a "beautiful boy with a rounded head".

Of their second meeting, George Obama said: "It was very brief, we spoke for just a few minutes. It was like meeting a complete stranger."

The Illinois senator mentions his brother in his autobiography, describing him in just one passing paragraph as a "beautiful boy with a rounded head".

Oh no he didn't... did he just call that african man a boy with a round head?

this story sounds more fictional then true. 1 dollar a month? impossible. 1 dollar a day perhaps, 1 dollar a week nearly impossible. 1 dollar a month, nope. Even in the poorest of nations it couldn't happen.

I had three older brothers and have one younger, We,ve none of us ever been close...knock down drag out fights!!!

But let anyone else try that sht...Well, you get the picture
Even at our worst we'd never have left one of our own homeless

This tells me all I would ever want to know about "The One"

PS...from what I hear, the story is true!
he abandoned his brother, half or not!...dollar a day or a month, makes no deffrence.

Way to pick em

A couple of things about this.



How is it the son in Kenya is named “George” while the one born in the USA is named “Barack?”


It would take Obama’s brother around thirty thousand years to make the same money as Obama got in a windfall from Rezko. He could have at least given his brother twelve bucks to double his annual income.

Sounds like George got thrown under the camel, err, I mean bus.

Just wait one second.... I was going through a complicated period back then, and I got those tapes because I enjoy the music. I enjoy oldies... music... nevermind.
