YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP...

Okay, I read this article...I thought it was from The Onion. But it's not. It comes from England, so it must be true.

However, I'm scratching my rapidly balding head wondering if I'm being "played" by a bunch of Brits...

8,000 Beduins stake their claim as the lost tribe of Barack Obama
A sheikh in Galilee says he has evidence that he and his family are linked by blood to the new President

Be sure and watch the video...too rich!

A quote from the article:

“We knew about it years ago but we were afraid to talk about it because we didn’t want to influence the election,” Abdul Rahman Sheikh Abdullah, a 53-year-old local council member, told The Times in the small Beduin village of Bir al-Maksour in the Israeli region of Galilee. “We wrote a letter to him explaining the family connection.”

Mr Obama’s team have not responded to the letter so far but that has not dampened Sheikh Abdullah’s festivities.

He has been handing out sweets and huge dishes of baklava traditional honey-sweetened pastries to all and sundry, and plans to hold a large party next week at which he will slaughter a dozen goats to feed the village.

Poor goats...
