Bonus fun fact:
Do people remember when some of the crazier right wing blogs decided to try and prove Obama’s great uncle wasn’t a military vet? There was a guy sending harassing emails to WWII vets and vet organizations and accusing them of lying. Very nasty stuff.

Anyway, much hilarity ensued in the lefty blogosphere when it turned out that the guy doing that was also a furry.

Another fun fact, at least according to Spiegel:

“Payne told Spiegel that he was shocked to see his war experience, especially his “liberation” of a concentration camp, used in campaign commercials. He said he had never spoken with his nephew about the matter, nor did Obama ever express any interest in Payne’s experience.

“I was quite surprised when the whole thing came up and Barack talked about my war experiences in Nazi Germany,” Payne said. “We had never talked about that before.”

Payne doesn’t know where Obama came up with the fictitious Auschwitz connection. “

/I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for the MSM to say a word about it.
