| Barack Obama's half brother in Kenya marries teenager |
| 2010-10-17 |
| The 19-year-old's mother told The Associated Press on Friday she is furious that her daughter quit high school and married the 52-year-old. Mary Aoko Ouma says her daughter tried to marry Malik Obama two years ago, but the mother says she would not give permission. Malik Obama, who is Muslim, has two other wives. Polygamy is legal in Kenya if it falls under religious or cultural traditions. In an interview broadcast by Kenya's NTV that was filmed without his knowledge, Malik Obama says he married the 19-year-old but didn't say when. |

| #7 1. She's still in high school at 19? What, did she get there by the short bus? 2. At 19, she's above the age of consent (way above the African age of "consent"); why is this a news story? 3. So, Bambi's half-brother is a creep. Runs in the family (though perhaps in different ways). 4. Who gives a sh*t? |

| #2 If only one could choose one's family as one choose one's friends... then all President Obama's relatives would be professionally successful members of ComIntern (or whatever it's called) with their very own numbers in the Soviet files. |
