MSNBC reporter says Barack Obama is from Kenya

August 5, 2014

 I really do not have much of a fight in me tonight so I thought I would lighten it up a bit. During a segment on MSNBC earlier today about the African summit Chris Jansing stated that Barack Obama had an interest in the region because he is from Kenya.

  Here is how it went down:

“The White House is clearly, I would assume, hoping this will be part of the president’s legacy, given his background,” Reid said.

“Yeah, the fact that he’s from Kenya,” Jansing replied breezily. “And the fact that when he was elected there were expectations on the African continent that he would do great things for them.”

  Later in the segment she corrected herself, saying she meant to say the president had an interest in the region because his father is from Kenya:

“Yeah, and — and just obviously to clarify, I misspoke at the top — before,” she said. “It is obviously the president’s father who is from Kenya. And you clarified that.”

“But he has a real connection,” Jansing continued. “And there has been a great expectation that great things could happen with this president and the African continent.”

  A Freudian slip? Who knew MSNBC was hiring birthers? But in all seriousness we need to give her a little credit because at least she knows Africa is a continent because Joe Biden thinks Africa is a nation.

    I am burned out and not much fight either. Oh how many Kenyan stories I did with Obama campaigning for his cousin Marxist Odinga who was charged with so many atrocities. Who knows, maybe I will drag out one or two just for old times sake!!

    Barack Obama can’t be fron Kenya. He has Social Security number from Conecticut. That would make him a Con Man.

    Thanks for the chuckle Jim.
    Borrowing a quote from the world’s smartest woman in a pants suit as regards Obama’s birth on the dark continent “What does it matter” since who in congress would have the balls to bring articles of impeachment if his African birth was confirmed?

    Good ol Joe, never even tried to correct himself, because his goal is just to hear himself talk, like Obama who invented the word “denialists”.when complaining yet again about those bad Republicans. And I doubt Jansing realized the mistake, but was told by a producer.

      Yeah, I was willing to give him a pass until he said it a second time.And I also agree that someone probably told this reporter to back track from what she said.

    The way they’re destroying American … what’s Biden yacking about – Africa joining in the ‘prosperity’? Flip that and you get how America is being made into a Country like Africa. Biden ‘thinks’ the ‘economy, job and housing markets’ are improving – shows how ‘grounded he is in reality.’
    So many of the con prez’s photos have been Photoshopped they’re no help, like the Birth Certificates. But, irregardless where he’s from or who his real biological father [he has no resemblance to Obama Sr. – ‘hey. as long as he’s black, that’ll do’], we know he’s ‘anti-American’, and he’s not one of us, nor for us. If they loved African’s so much why all the that ‘chemical testing’ on them?
