It was supposed to cost $35m--here is an excerpt from one of many articles -- Who Is Funding the Purchase of the $35 million Beachfront Hawaiian Estate for Barack and Michelle Obama to Move into Come January 2013? Posted on September 2, 2012 by Kevin DuJan // Best of Hillbuzz, Hillbuzz I’ve done some more digging here in Chicago on the story we brought you on Friday about plans currently underway to purchase a $35 million beachfront estate on the island of Oahu in a part of Hawaii called “Kailua” for the Obama family to move into in January 2013 when they leave the White House. It’s funny, but “kai” means “victorious” in Mandarin Chinese and you probably know that “lua” is close to the Hawaiian word “luau”, which is of course a large party. It’s more than ironic that a spot in paradise that conjures a mental image of “victory party” will be the place the Obama family moves to in just four months or so, after they’ve been booted from the White House. They surely won’t be in a festive mood after being downgraded from “First Family” to ordinary citizens again, but no doubt the rest of the world will be celebrating.

It doesn't seem to faze them in the least that virtually none of their assertions turn out to be correct. They just continue to believe their emails and the yellow journalism that they rely on. And of course they get mad when other people don't believe the stuff that they just make up, and they cry "Conspiracy! The MSM is ignoring this important story!" Or "You'll never read this in the MSM!" [Of course not, because the "MSM" actually tries to find evidence and be accurate.]
