âI was a little Jakarta street kid,â Obama said in a wide-ranging interview in the Oval Office. He laughingly recalled how he once got in trouble for making faces during Koran study classes in his Islamic school. Mr. Obama wistfully recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated, Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as âone of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.â http://www.politico.com/blogs/joshgerstein/0810/Dont_look_birthers_Obamas_passport.html?showall
The blurred out dates are the date of issue and the date of expiration. Interesting that he has 51 pages in his passport, yet I only have about half that amount.
not as mysterious as his possible diabolical Islamic links as it could be that he just traveled extensively and had to add a bunch of pages for visas (my last passport ended up with 45 pages from adding "visa" pages twice). jus' a guess.
