And the dead shall be raised

"The trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised": "Tutankhamun's trumpet was one of the rare artefacts stolen from the Cairo Museum during the recent uprising. The 3,000-year-old instrument is rarely played, but a 1939 BBC radio recording captured its haunting sound" [Audio] http://bbc.in/hSY1oX

Anti-Americanism marches on:

Anti-Americanism marches on: "President Obama is unconcerned with typical American principles and traditions.  He sees capitalism as selfish and evil, religion as dangerous and oppressive; he sees the Constitution as antiquated and entrepreneurialism as exploitative.  He is the representative of the Fareed Zakaria ideology at work, celebrating the post-American world." http://bit.ly/evMVf6

Baracknaphobia

"Baracknaphobia is the inescapable fear that this country will be subjected to another four years of ideological, radical, in-your-face narcissistic control.  Baracknaphobia is also the reluctance to call the man out for his lies, because of the color of his skin.  Baracknaphobia is fear of the demon that could destroy America." http://bit.ly/i09kAQ

In Italy at the probable time of conception.

Blythe, the nominal father, was in Italy at the probable time of conception. "His father, William Blythe, died before Clinton was born." http://reut.rs/ectUUy
Similarly, there is no reason to have assurance that the nominal father of our current president is his natural father. Documentary evidence of exact place and date of birth and attending doctor are hidden. There are no witnesses to either the birth or to any relationship other than one of convenience between Stanley Anne Dunham and the purported father.
"Chris Ruddy is reporting in his magazine that Blythe was NOT in the country 9 months prior to Bill's birth and ONLY returned 6 MONTHS PRIOR to his birth. Virginia was asked about this and her response was Clintonesque: 'I pushed hard for an early labor'." http://bit.ly/eLnma6
