My apologies. I'd read it and did not see any specific books mentioned. Could you point out specifically where he touts that book? Thanks
There you go. My suggestion is that before you claim he's touting a specific book, you actually read his letter. Then you know that he didn't.
It is you, who once again, are terribly misinformed on an issue that deals with children's safety. Giving you the benefit of the doubt, you're likely making assumptions, because you can't fathom that the politicians you consistently prop up here on a daily basis, would actually believe this stuff. Let me hold your hand and help you out here. Who is Obama addressing in the letter? Librarians of America. Scroll down the chain of Obama's tweet. Who does he promote? Answer: Click the link to the page. At the verrrrrrry bottom of the webpage: "Copyright © 2023 American Library Association" ..... "An Initiative of the American Library Association". Ahhhh... so that's who he's writing to and promoting. Okay. Upon doing some research via Google, here's what I came up with on the American Library Association: "The book that is most commonly described as having been “banned” — by which critics do not actually mean “banned,” but rather “moved to a different section within, or removed completely from, public school libraries” — is Gender Queer by Maia Kobabe, a graphic work that, among other things, includes depictions of minors performing oral sex, of male adults having penetrative sex, and of an adult man masturbating a small boy’s penis." What Obama’s Letter to Libraries Leaves Out | National Review Don't believe it, because it's National Review? Okay... try this then... Gender Queer Most Challenged of 2021 Straight from the horse's mouth. It was the "most challenged book of 2021." You still hanging on to the position Obama was not referring to that book?
You have to go three steps past what Obama wrote to tie the book to his statement, and you believe that his statement was clearly about that book?
So you call River "terribly misinformed" for making assumptions then you go and make a series of assumptions to try and prove your point. How much time did you spend belatedly trying to prove Obama was talking about that book rather than just say you made a mistake?
I saw a post from another person with sexual images, but nothing from Barrack about that particular book. Did I miss it?
Nice try but I was the owner and retired almost 2 years ago. Yes this will be great for the likes of you
As a point of information there has been a long history of animosity towards Barack Obama from his half-brother so his most recent absurd assertion shouldn't be a surprise. And as a point of information Malik Obama is even sketchier than Hunter Biden. From 2020 Barack Obama's half-brother calls him 'snob' and asks people to vote for Trump From 2016 Obama's brother plans to vote for Trump Although somewhat off-topic, a little regarding the source. Obama's Half Brother, 52, Marries 19-Year-Old From 2011 Obama’s half-brother runs questionable charity From 2015 With brothers like Malik Obama, who needs enemies? - The Boston Globe
Correct and this thread may have had a tiny bit of validity if his brother was saying this based on first hand knowledge of something while they were growing up. In this instance, his brother commenting about Obama's tweet is no different than any random person on the internet saying the same thing.
