George Hussein Onyango Obama, Senator Barack Obama's long lost brother was tracked down living in a hut on the outskirts of Nairobi Photo: Guy Calaf, Vanity Fair, Italy The Italian edition of Vanity Fair said that it had found George Hussein Onyango Obama living in a hut in a ramshackle town of Huruma on the outskirts of Nairobi. Mr Obama, 26, the youngest of the presidential candidate's half-brothers, spoke for the first time about his life, which could not be more different than that of the Democratic contender. "No-one knows who I am," he told the magazine, before claiming: "I live here on less than a dollar a month." According to Italy's Vanity Fair his two metre by three metre shack is decorated with football posters of the Italian football giants AC Milan and Inter, as well as a calendar showing exotic beaches of the world. Vanity Fair also noted that he had a front page newspaper picture of his famous brother - born of the same father as him, Barack Hussein Obama, but to a different mother, named only as Jael. He told the magazine: "I live like a recluse, no-one knows I exist." Embarrassed by his penury, he said that he does not does not mention his famous half-brother in conversation. "If anyone says something about my surname, I say we are not related. I am ashamed," he said. For ten years George Obama lived rough. However he now hopes to try to sort his life out by starting a course at a local technical college. He has only met his famous older brother twice - once when he was just five and the last time in 2006 when Senator Obama was on a tour of East Africa and visited Nairobi. The Illinois senator mentions his brother in his autobiography, describing him in just one passing paragraph as a "beautiful boy with a rounded head". Of their second meeting, George Obama said: "It was very brief, we spoke for just a few minutes. It was like meeting a complete stranger." George added he was no longer in contact with his mother and said:"I have had to learn to live and take what I need. "Huruma is a tough place, last January during the elections there was rioting and six people were hacked to death. The police don't even arrest you they just shoot you. "I have seen two of my friends killed. I have scars from defending myself with my fists. I am good with my fists."
Poster Comment: Good Lord....these nutsack Obama's are crawling out of the woodwork.

The photo says it all. Obummer and his wife expound on their charitable work for the needy. I suspect that is all BS for the media and the sheep that call Obummer their Savior. Look at the photo and show it to the world. Shame on Obummer.
Imagine a BHO family portrait Christmas/Kawanzee/Islam card...
Obummer and his knee padder white guilters cannot explain this one, cannot make it acceptable on any terms. Obama is so caring and will provide for all..."America needs to look at Obamas own brother, for he is his brothers keeper".
If Vanity Fair found George Hussein Onyango Obama, why couldn't the smartest man on the planet do the same? Perhaps he didn't want to? Well anyway, I'm sure Barry is going to invite Onyango to the DNC convention, place him in a front row seat, and ask that he wear traditional Kenyan ceremonial dress. After all he is family.
No kidding! That photo could be one of us in the future under Obama's Marxist redistribution of wealth income tax plan.
Charity begins at home and the Obummers keep it there. I believe his wife has an "earned" salary of 300K a year, barely enough to get by on.
Makes one wonder, if Obama cares not for his own brother, why should we accept he cares one whit for us. This photo is going to be a millstone around his scrawny neck and rightfully so as it has nothing to do with politics, it has to do with basic humanity. This photo paints the true Obama.
Odd. Last week, for the first time, I identified two persons in the car in front of me as negroids by the pointiness of their skulls.
Howard Dean said “If you look at folks of color, even women, they’re more successful in the Democratic party than they are in the white, uh, excuse me, in, uh, Republican party.” All-in-all, wasn't the McCain campaign right to pounce on that? Perhaps Obama knows, quite rightly, that nothing good can come from subsidizing this half-brother.

Perhaps he is willfully ignorant of where and how his siblings live. His brothers own words condemn Obama. The photo and the words of his brother should not sit well with American voters.
I would be ashamed too, but for different reasons. I would be ashamed that I was related to a guy that would do anything for money. He has nothing to be ashamed about in being poor. I would bet he would make a much better president than Barrack Obama ever could.
God is always good!

I find nothing about this surprising as anyone who would mortgage their soul for position and money is not likely to be overflowing with warmth for their fellow man - nor even their brother. To anyone who follows the issues and has the wit to observe the obvious Oh'Bummer is a wholly owned player whose strings are pulled by those who hide in the shadows.

Ha! I like it!!
OI... A Harvard graduate, a lawyer, a Senator, a would be president, a self professed humanitarian and his own brother lives in squalor on a dollar a month. Something wrong with the picture painted of Obama by the American media.
Yes, the apparent contradiction is stark. Only Oh'Bummer can fix our broken souls. It is a creation, a fabrication, and something out of a PR/PsyOps Think Tank. For anyone willing to understand how products are marketed via advertising the gimmicks and manipulations stand out not as endorsements but as big red warning flags.

Agreed... Obama was created for a reason, for a use. Half a billion dollars in donations did not come from thin air, and his own brother lives on a dollar a month?
I see Drudge has now posted the brother photo atop of a photo of Obama. People can draw their own conclusions.
No fancy bottled water, electric bills, McMansions, insurance premiums or gas- gulping SUVs for him. He lives a very "green" lifestyle. Now, if only the Obamessiah can do the same for us we'd be much better off. Who needs them fancy flush toilets anyway? Praise be to The Magnificent Majik Messiah! He has risen!
Yes, a secular black messiah to control and manipulate the public perception and to keep the Lemmings walking off the cliff. The "Rock Star" fervor generated in his support is very telling in and of itself. No doubt their are subliminals and other manipulations being used to control the perceptions of the Television watching public. I would be willing to bet a princely sum that the majority of Oh'Bummers most ardent and worshipful fans are heavy consumers of television programming.

People can draw their own conclusions. Does bubba resemble bho?
Yes, just darker. I was shocked that Drudge posted the two photos together. Some wag somewhere said that Obummer could at least double his brothers yearly income by sending him $12. It is now up to MSM to refuse to print the story or show the photo. We shall see.
funny - thanks I am just about sick of all this 'green' stuff that's going on. Bubba Obama should sell some of his excess 'carbon footprint' credits and get himself a cheeseburger, or something.
There's nothing wrong with being green, at least until the government got involved in it and laid their reverse Midas touch on it. Green usually equates to cheap if you do it right. My wife and I have drastically reduced our consumption while increasing our standard of living, but once the government gets involved with their bullshit, it screws things up for everybody and any gains are lost.
That was the assumption I used when posting. Just because it's a good idea, does not mean that govs need to make it a law. (And create yet another pork-laden agency of gov-workers.)
There's something you have to respect about someone who can live on a buck a month. Hell, it'd kill most Uhhmerkkins if they had to walk the 120 feet to & from their mailbox rather than driving.
As a former gubmint "worker" I resemble that comment.
It's no laughing matter. Obama believes that welfare should go global, and wants a special tax for it. Maybe he can appoint his "long-lost" brother to adminster the program, or at least be its mascott.
everyone has to see this story ping

Hah, the Kenyan branch of the family. This could be good.
Jimmuh Cahta is laughing his ass off over this. Billy Carter Redux....
I thought Brother Barack was worth North of $4 million. Now that Brother Onyango (pronounced Wang) has been found, might BO show some compassion and slip him a new boom box and perhaps a few fifties?
He'll make the White House chef A-Team in short order, mark my words.
