Reply #3: Who gives a shit? I mean....really.

John Kennedy's father was a whoring pig who disrespected his wife and blatantly screwed Gloria Swanson and other film divas for years. He even had Gloria on the same boat as his family when crossing the Atlantic.

Ronald Reagan's father was a drunken shoe salesman who never paid the bills, and as a consequence RR was forced, with his family to move house almost forty times growing up -- when you can't pay the rent, that's how ya do it.

Gerald Ford's biological father was an abusive drunken fucker who beat the living shit out of his mother. She ran like hell to avoid being killed by the guy. Her second husband adopted him, that's why his name became FORD instead of KING.

Bill Clinton's stepfather was an abusive drunk too.

Barack Obama's father was a drunken shithead loser who screwed around and lied.


Big deal. There's at least one in every family.

If I had to guess, I would surmise that the reason Barack's name is "The Second" and not Junior is because he WAS adopted by that Indonesian dude, and when the relationship with Barack's mom went to shit, he ceded his parental rights to the grandparents, who got the kid's name changed back as close as they could manage--and it was all sealed because he was a minor.

But, even if that IS the case (and I am just speculating) I really could give a shit.

All this latest bit of crap does is demonstrate that ANYONE--even someone with a drunken asshole whoremaster for a father--can become President if they work hard, stay in school, and keep their eye on the prize.

What his stupid father said a half century ago is just...irrelevant.
