Barack Obama’s Ex-Nanny Was A Cross-Dressing Homosexual

Oh there is so much to learn about President Obama from the Times travel story about his Indonesian trip, finally coming to fruition today after three delays. Like how Barry, as he was known while growing up there as a boy in the late 60s, said he wanted to be president. And how he went to Roman Catholic church service like everyone else. Oh, and how he was raised by a gay guy who would later become a member of a cross-dressing entertainment group.

Mr. Obama’s family rented the guest house inside a compound belonging to a prominent physician. There, according to the neighborhood’s longtime residents, the young Obama, who had already experienced differences in class and religion in his short stay in Indonesia, was exposed to another aspect of Jakarta’s diversity.

His nanny was an openly gay man who, in keeping with Indonesia’s relaxed attitudes toward homosexuality, carried on an affair with a local butcher, longtime residents said. The nanny later joined a group of transvestites called Fantastic Dolls, who, like the many transvestites who remain fixtures of Jakarta’s streetscape, entertained people by dancing and playing volleyball.

At last, we learn why the president is taking such a muted approach to LGBT equality: he doesn’t want to interrupt the natural process of gays entering the arts.

      Well, THAT explains why he is a socialist/secret Muslim/Indonesian/Kenyan that hates America and white culture.

      I love how these articles explain trans people… the nanny was what’s known in Indonesia as a Waria… a group of transgender women similar to Hijra in India. They are often hired as household help in that country. Yes, a lot of the translated articles from places like Indonesia and India do call such people “transvestites” or “gay men” but that doesn’t mean they either live as men, gay men, nor does it mean they cross-dress in a situational way, which is how the term “transvestite” is usually defined.

      Wow, we are really scraping the bottom of the barrel to discredit this president. I wonder why he’s being seen as such a threat when he’s done so little different from the last traitor that was in the office?
