Conservative Helps Obama’s Brother Pay For Medical Bills

Via Mark Steyn I stumbled upon a piece by Dinesh D’Souza about President Obama’s half-brother in Kenya. Here’s an excerpt:

A few days ago I received a call from a man I recently met named George. He was a bit flustered, and soon informed me that his young son was sick with a chest condition. He pleaded with me to send him $1,000 to cover the medical bills. Since George was at the hospital I asked him to let me speak to a nurse, and she confirmed that George’s son was indeed ill. So I agreed to send George the money through Western Union. He was profusely grateful. But before I hung up I asked George, “Why are you coming to me?” He said, “I have no one else to ask.” Then he said something that astounded me, “Dinesh, you are like a brother to me.”

Actually, George has a real life brother who just happens to be the president of the United States. (George Obama is the youngest of eight children sired by Barack Obama Sr.) George’s brother is a multimillionaire and the most powerful man in the world. Moreover, George’s brother has framed his re-election campaign around the “fair share” theme that we owe obligations to those who are less fortunate.

One of Obama’s favorite phrases comes right out of the Bible: “We are our brother’s keeper.” Yet he has not contributed a penny to help his own brother. And evidently George does not believe, even in times of emergency, that he can turn to his brother in the White House for help.

Imagine if instead of Obama’s brother,  that Romney’s brother had to turn to others for help. It would be one of the biggest news items in the mainstream media since the Watergate-scandal. Just imagine the number of sob stories about how a brother of Governor Romney had gotten off on the wrong foot and was forced to live in poverty without Governor Romney extending his hand to help him.

Bottom-line: Obama enjoys spreading the wealth, as long as it isn’t his own.
