| A man claiming to be a close pal to President Obama during college made contact with Republican operatives recently, ready to go public with claims that Obama used and sold cocaine in college, RadarOnline.com is reporting exclusively. The operatives tried to spread the story through the media and the Romney campaign, a source close to the situation told Radar. “At first he wanted to do a book,” a source close to the situation told RadarOnline.com about the alleged college pal. “But there just wasn’t enough time before the election.

Romney's campaign is smart to leave this alone. They are keeping away from personal attacks, and people are tired of this negative cr*p. the very few true undecideds (I still can't believe anyone is, either the world is a better place for you today or it isn't) are not going to be influenced by this and would look at it as a snarky election gambit.

I agree #7. I believe Obama was born in the US and the big lie they are covering up is that he claimed was born in Kenya to get into college. I suspect Trump believes the same thing and has found proof. But it doesn't matter. The media will not report the truth and if they report anything at all, they'll say the records are fake. They'll mock Trump, call him a birther and then move along to the next story.

This should be no surprise to you people. In his first autobiography, hussein obama wrote, "I like marijuana, but prefer cocaine when I can afford it." Many college students who are drug abusers get involved in the sale of illegal drugs. Geraldine Ferraro's son was a drug dealer at middlebury college back in the 1990s. Using and dealing go together.
But I agree that I was surprised to see that mr hussein obama had private sector experience.

#6's reply made me smile like a vandalized Halloween jack-o'-lantern. Metric system, indeed!
Since Obama owned up to doing cocaine in his first memoir, I have no doubt that he also was involved in selling the stuff. It's just the sort of thing a budding community organizer would do to raise some cash.
I also understand why Romney won't touch these allegations. He's going to win anyway, and being a classy fellow, he wants to take the high road to the presidency. Secretly, I imagine he's pleased. Watching the most odious political figure of our lifetimes slide slowly, angrily out of sight and out of power brings immense satisfaction.

Obama's roommate in NYC was Sohale Siddiqui aka Sadik. A Muslim from Pakistan who eventually overstayed his visa. In 2008 , before they shut him up , Sohale admitted selling cocaine from their apartment. In DreamsFMF on page 118 , Obama wrote about seeing a woman named Sophie " sitting at the kitchen table , a mirror and a razor blade pushed off to one side. " On page 120 ,Obama wrote that at some point in NYC he " stopped getting high." Considering his history , it makes sense that Obama was involved in selling and using drugs. After the election, when it's safe, it's a sure bet that the true stories will start oozing out about Obama's bath house proclivities, his relationship with Reggie Love , his drug use ( perhaps still current ) and his bizarre behavior.

No. 17's post makes the most sense of his Pakistani trips. I was in college around the same time BO was and all the kids I knew wanted to go to Europe and see Paris - most had to borrow the money from their parents. NOBODY was clamoring to see scenic Pakistan. I knew an engineering student who was from there & he was pretty glad to get out of there - he didn't even go home to visit family. If it is proven that BO was dealing that makes him guilty of a felony.

When Huffington departed the 4,400 square foot, seven-story apartment at 227 W. 17th Street in January she´d caused $275,000 in damages ranging from "gouged, stained and otherwise damaged" walls, "scratched, punctured" wood floors, bloodied mattresses and broken appliances, the Manhattan Supreme Court suit charges. "Huffington was using the apartment for large parties and business functions in breach of the sublease and Huffington´s promises," court papers allege.

Dr. Luis Leon’s sermon: We often want things to go back to the way things used to be, before “work got difficult and faith got confused, and life got more confusing,” but when we dwell on the “if only” of life we forget that “God addresses us in the now.” As Jesus told Mary not to hold on to the past, “You cannot go back.”

Although the term "useful idiots" was originally attributed to Vladimir Lenin, its origin is undetermined but it is very applicable to the naïve celebrities in Hollywood and the media now mourning the death of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. Much like the devotees of Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, these grieving individuals have made no effort to learn the truth about those they lionize. One has to feel some pity for the likes of the Sean Penns, Oliver Stones, Michael Moores, Danny Glovers, and idolaters who naively support malignant despots and causes believing them to be a force for good.

Don’t hide behind a procedural action to prevent a vote. That’s the wrong thing to do, and that’s how the president clearly feels.”
