My sister in-law e mailed me about this story. Has anyone else heard about this??? He lives in a dirty little shack in Kenya. Very poor. So if Obama allows his family members to live in squalor. What will he do to us?? Something to think about??????:-3:-3:(

I dont allow my brother one thing or another.

Could be true but a lot of times those emails that get passed around are misleading at best and contrived at worst. Such as the one about Obama refusing to salute the flag during the pledge, showing a picture of him and other politicians where he was the only one without a hand over his heart. He offered his explanation for that, which I think amounted to something about a contrived photo, but even still there are people who believe that he won't honor the flag. I still get that email sometimes.

Nomad's point is well taken, you cannot make an adult do anything even if it is a relative.
