Related to this previous post about Obama's dog-eating, it becomes ever more obvious that no one read his book. A news story this week is that one of the girlfriends Obama talks about in Dreams from My Father is actually a composite of several girlfriends of his over the years.
Except this isn't news because Obama made note of the fact that he used composite characters in his book to protect the identity of actual people. Ergo, people just bought this book to put up on their shelves and pose as ... I-don't-know-whats, people-who-buy-the-memoirs-of-other-people-too-young-to-have-authored-memoirs? Ridiculous. And all of these so-called reporters and journalists should be ashamed of themselves.
Plus, the country is still in the crapper and we're talking about "news" pertaining to Obama's girlfriends coming out of a book that was written almost 20 years ago? Pathetic. And I am pathetic for talking about it as well.
