(Half) Brother Can You Spare a Dime?

July 16, 2009 12:00 PM 4 comments

For every person who succeeds and rises to the top of the food chain there are others who did not… some of them happened to be related.  We have heard very little about President Obama’s half-brother, George Hussein Onyango Obama who lives in a tin shack in Kenya living off of $1.00 per month.  Lest we forget that charity should begin at home, I wonder how much hope for change George has in his life now that he has a relative in the White House?

Billy Carter

Sadly, Roger Clinton struggled through much of his life with drug and alcohol abuse, even spending time in jail for dealing cocaine.  He currently works in the field of children’s music and remains out of the news.  Billy Carter died of cancer in 1988.  What both of these men have in common, except for their famous siblings being president, is that their brothers did try and help them as much as possible.  With George Obama, however, it appears that he’s on his own.

  • I guess community activism and drug use run in the family. Maybe George can be president of Kenya!

  • You should have been given a Billy Badge for drinking Billy Beer!

  • If Obama succeeds in crashing the American economy and therefore lowers our standard of living to be equal to that of Kenya’s, wouldn’t that in a way be helping his brother? You of all people should know that the liberal isn’t interested in helping people rise above their circumstances; they would rather bring everyone else down. By suggesting that Obama should do something to help his brother, you are suggesting that he act in complete antithesis to the ideology that he embodies. If there is one thing we can give Obama credit for, it is sticking to his ideological guns.
