There is no controversy here.

Mrs Pepperpot is a lady who always copes with the tricky situations that she finds herself in....

Obama lives an extravegent lifestyle? He's a self made man. He lives rather modestly. Is this class envy?
Please excuse me but Obama was put through college by others, he is not self made. He is a product of the Chicago Machine.

Wow can anyone say hypocrisy much? Where was all the comments about extravagant and being self-made, when Bush was in office.
Bush who worked in his family oil company and was a C student is ok....but Obama who lived with his grandparents and manage to go from Occidental college to Colombia University to Harvard, plus graduate Magna Cum Lande, doesn't deserve to spend money on activities for his kids or buy his wife nice things.

If he was "put through school by others", why did he was he still apying off student loans until his first book hit the bestseller lists?

Well you might be interested in the facts about who paid for Obama's education.

Newsmax isn't a credible source. (the article is loaded with allegations and suspicions but not one fact) The article in the NY Sun has absolutely nothing to do college funding. It only alleges that affirmative action may have been a factor. The wikianswers link says "we do not know what Obama grades were" It has nothing to do with funding his college education. The msn.com boards contains a screed which contains a lot of allegations (Obama's a Muslim and a black nationalist, somebody named Dr. Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour a/k/a Donald Warden supposedly financed his entire education.) You also provide links to two right wing blogs.
There are tons of allegations in and amongst these diatribes. What there isn't is any evidence to back up the claims. It is enough, apparently, to sow beliefs amongst the most gullible among us.

I agree Obama is an example of Chicago politics. He went from state house, where he did little to the senate where he did even less because as a freshman he has been running for president. He did manage to get over $100K from AIG. He appoints tax cheats and those with shaddy associations and those from companies that the government is bailing out. He has put us very deep into debt but I am sure he will still be blaming Bush in 4 years. He is the frontman, I would really like to know who is in control of the strings.

There is no proof of that 'cause BHO REFUSED to release his records.
It's just his word that says he was paying off his loans and we've learned time and time again that he can't tell the truth
