Tell me this is one of those 'fake news' items we keep hearing about.

Please. Even USia can't be this retarded.

Can it?

Bahaha

You said 'snopes'

Which kinda throws doubt on your other cite too.

Neither of them points to any compelling evidence that this particular story is indeed fake. A bit of doubt perhaps but no more than exists for many lamestream media stories.

first link is bullshit, and yes, it is NOT true, you can claim snopes is wrong, when you cant back up your link with FACTS
in fact your lack of awareness of anything factual is disturbingly obvious with all the posts you started lately...
No..USIANs arent that stupid, only those people who believe such bullcrap without checking their claims are.
So whats your excuse?

Why turn this into another petty personal attack?

Are you trying to convince stiphie that you're a dome?

So sites with heaps of traffic that have been around for years are not to be trusted, yet some site called 'USAtwentyfour' that looks like it was thrown together in 2 hours and seems to exist mostly to reprint RWNJ lies and earn money through the advertising deserves everyone's respect and trust.

I've also noticed they like to keep their word count low-- probably to suit the attention spans of their readers, who I'd imagine get really upset when things take too long to read.

I don't understand this continual denial of factual evidence. It just makes the insisting person look more and more stupid.

How do people figure that's "winning" anything?

The only thing I'm insisting on is credible evidence one way or the other.

So far no one has presented any compelling argument to convince me that either side is the right one.

The juvenile personal attacks just reinforce the suspicion that those making them are indeed the feeble morons we have all long suspected them to be.

You should insist on credible evidence even when something makes you feel good about believing what you do.

If you were looking for credible evidence, you would do your research first before putting up obviously fake information.
oh and you need better sources....you are failing in that a great deal.
You got more than one link from that response, why did you only focus on making a joke of snopes.
at least snopes gives direct links to its proof.
And Fact Check while post-truthers say its left leaning, they can rarely disprove their sources on facts. Ignore facts at your own peril
I know thinking is new to you, but give it a whirl eh?

Given the adolescent headline, the use of fake news, and the resistance to fact-checking, I don't think the OP is especially concerned with appearing--let alone being--credible.

You get you poison out into the atmosphere and bank on the credulous and/or those seeking confirmation of their prejudices to inhale it.

OK how's this ? How is it that you can even begin to believe this obvious bullshit ? At no time in the history of this country has a relative living with the pres. at the white house, ever received any salary or pension.

Why aren't you asking about all of the kids and family that lived at the white house ?

This is like actually believing that Trump's kids will get a salary or pension if they take up offices in the white house.

The very conjecture that Obama's grandma is getting this pension suggests a desperate search for anything...anything that could even remotely further denigrate a man who's been denigrated since 11/08 for having the audacity of being a liberal dem elected to the white house...and have the arrogant temerity of being black.

Maybe el presidente has set off his cult bleating about this nonsense in the hope that maybe they will if he can get people complaining about this daft story?
