Obama Overstates Kennedys' Role in Helping His Father

It doesn't matter because it's only words.

More telling is that a prominent Kenyan journalist remembers Barry Sr. as...

"charming, generous and extraordinarily clever," but also "imperious, cruel and given to boasting about his brain and his wealth."

Obama Jr. paints a similar portrait in his best-selling 1995 autobiography, "Dreams From My Father," describing his father as exceptionally gifted but also "wild," "boastful" and "stubborn."

Compare that with this Joe Klein piece...

Obama Diplomacy?

Speaking to Edwards on the day he exited the race, Obama came across as glib and aloof.

...in his Edwards sit-down, Obama dug himself in deeper, getting into a fight with Elizabeth about health care, insisting that his plan is universal (a position she considers a crock)...

Looks like the nut didn't fall too far from the tree and the scientific community is united in that fact.
