Cast:

Subject: Any Record Of Charles W Payne?

Mr. Kitchell,

As you may have heard by now, Barack Obama has claimed that his great uncle Charlie Payne was a member of the 89th Div that liberated Buchenwald.

According to records his full name is either Charles W Payne or Charles T Payne (most likely the former), and he was born in 1924 — and he is still alive today.

He most likely was from Kansas at the time of enlistment.

Do you have any record of this gentleman?

Thank you,

Steve Gilbert

PS - If you go to my website, you will see that I was probably the first to note the error in Mr. Obama’s first claims about his “uncle.”

3.  Don't fuck with OLD veterans, the niceness juice has all but dried
up and I'm surprised that more of the really old ones don't just kneecap fuckers like the little slime trying a little character assassination on Obama's great uncle.



I had a stepfather who did multiple island landings as a rifleman with the marines during wwII....

Hector didn't suffer fools lightly......

23. Very true.
WWII vets do not suffer fools gladly. There are only a few of them left, and from what I've seen lately, they are not pleased.

26. My late VVA brother
would tell me of these fake vets saying "I was in Vietnam, as a Navy seal" and the Seal vets would check them out and if they were lying and didn't publicly renounce what they claimed they would go to their local papers and sometimes even threaten to come to their houses.

30. Yeah, I saw a guy slapped around pretty good over having medals on
a dress uniform he was wearing that were from WWII.

This was in 1972 or so - He was about 25......He eventually admitted he'd never served a day.

Stealing honorable service, like lying about being under sniper fire, is about the lowest thing someone can do to veterans...Which is why I threw a fit about Tuzla.

Did you ever notice that everybody and their dog claims to be a Navy Seal, too? If they claimed to be a cook no one would ever check them out.

By the way - the Navy keeps a registry - online, I think- of all the captains who ever ran Seal units. Ask the guy claiming to be a Seal who his Captain was.....That will go a long ways towards finding out who is who....

And the only Seal I ever knew for any length of time never bragged about who and what he'd been. Ever.

33. the old ones are dying off so fast they cling together in solidarity.
I had a cousin in the Marketbasket fiasco, an uncle in Guadalcanal that lasted until Bougainville (shrapnel that probably saved his life), an uncle who collected a purple heart on a fleet tug in the pacific due to kamikazes, a dad with the pacific fleet who went all the way to tokyo. In fact, I had about 24 relatives in that war and NONE of them would have a good thing to say about this sliming. None of them.

6. Obama's great uncle, and Daniel Inouye, and Max Cleland and John Kerry....
Doesn't matter how bravely a man served his country if he's not serving the interests of the right wing.

Sheesh pizza. No toppings. (Well... maybe a cookie, but we take it for granite.)

I phoned in the order 25 minutes ago. 6 more minutes and it's free. :silly:

I don’t claim to represent anyone. You are the one who came to my son and I asking for information.

Please spend ample time chasing down the lies fed to you by chickenhawks Bush & Co. Like 90% of this administration, they don’t have the foggiest idea what we went through or what we saw at Ohrdruf.

25. I saw pics of Ohrdruf. If I were one of these guys I would be PISSED
that their experience is being minimized when it was just as horrific as anything else people saw.

Mark Kitchell is being very diplomatic indeed.
