Re: Obama: My uncle liberated … Auschwitz?
It is a huge slip up since Buchenwald was essentially a labour camp while Auschwitz was the primary "extermination" camp that saw the highest number of casualties.

Re: Obama: My uncle liberated … Auschwitz?
Good point Frank. Still, even Auschwitz had its fair share of industry.

Re: Obama: My uncle liberated … Auschwitz?
Yeah, same here. I think this will all blow over pretty quickly.

Re: Obama: My uncle liberated … Auschwitz?
I love how Obama got a pass from the media last year when he claimed 10,000 people were killed in a twister (KA) when it was only 12.
Seems Obama cannot get his numbers right. And he wants to be President of all 57 states. |

Re: Obama: My uncle liberated … Auschwitz?
yea well, I also have issues with every member of the armed forces being classified as a "hero” too, but I am going to leave it alone, as I don’t think we'd have much of a logical or emotion free discussion here on that topic.

Re: Obama: My uncle liberated … Auschwitz?
I'm a hero in the war on drugs and I would appreciate it if people would refer to me as such.
