Related: About this forumObama's mother was CIA with Tim Geithner's dad in Indonesia (Mobil/Stanvac and the Suharto regime)
THE Real Scoop on Tim Geithner's dad working with Barack Obama's mom both for the CIA back when AGENCY WAS ALL OVER INDONESIA although both ostensibly worked for the FORD FOUNDATION
{snip}
These events may now seem "long ago and far away" to many modern
Democratic voters. But the situation was quite different in 1967, when
Ann Dunham married Lolo Soetoro. An active leftist -- which Ann Dunham
supposedly was -- with an interest in international affairs would have
known all about the bloodbath. It was in the newspapers. Any true
student radical would have refused to eat lunch with a Suharto/Mobil
functionary.
And yet she married the man.
How does the Ford Foundation fit in? Well, if you fire up Google -- or
better still, head into a university library -- you'll see plenty of
evidence that the CIA and the FF were likethis during the period when
Timmy's dad and Barry's mom took such a keen interest in Indonesia.
Given the wealth of available material, I hate to cite Wikipedia -- but
if you want a quick summary, you can do worse than to run your eyeballs
over the following:The former Binghamton University professor of sociology, James Petras,
and other critics accuse the Foundation of being a front organization
for the CIA. Petras names the exchange of high-ranking personnel between
the CIA and the Foundation, Ford Foundation's big donations to the
CIA-backed Congress for Cultural Freedom, the former Foundation
president Richard Bissell's relationship with DCI Allen Dulles and
involvement with the Marshall Plan during the 1950s, among other things.
According to Petras, the Ford Foundation funds "anti-leftist human
rights groups which focus on attacking human rights violations of U.S.
adversaries".

Did Papa Giethner know the Mother of the Blessed One during their time
together in Indonesia? Did little Barry and little Timmy play together?
This has yet to be established, although the likelihood seems high,
considering the natures of Lolo's job, her job, and Peter's job. Still,
you may want to heed these words from Cinie...Stanley Ann Dunham Obama
Dunham met her second husband, Lolo Sotoero, at the East West Center on
the University of Hawaii Campus. Ann Dunham had met her son's father,
Barack Obama, Sr., on the same campus years earlier, that time in a
Russian language class. She seems to have had a thing for men who work
for oil companies, too, since ObaOne worked for Shell and Lolo worked
for Mobil. By the way, Cinie links to this earlier post on Cannonfire
(referenced above), of which I'm rather proud: Spies, lies, Barry and
his mom. That piece probably would have received a great deal of
attention in lefty circles if Barack Obama were a white Republican. But
he's neither, which means that the evidence I present will never be
considered sufficient, and the questions I raise will always be ignored.

This goes beyond Creative Speculation, into the kind of filth I expect from Freepers and Glen Beck.
