Carney: Yes, Actually Obama Did Once Live With His Illegal Immigrant Uncle

‘The president said he in fact had met Omar Obama when he moved to Cambridge for law school, and he stayed with him for a brief period of time’

“What I can tell you, Ed, and thank you for the question -- is that back when this arose, folks looked at the record, including the president's book, and there was no evidence that they had met. There was -- and that was what was conveyed. Nobody spoke to the president. When Omar Obama said the other day, and there were reports that he said the other day, that President Obama, back when he was a law school student, stayed with him in Cambridge, I thought it was right to do to go ask him. Nobody had asked him in the past, and the president said that he in fact had met Omar Obama when he moved to Cambridge for law school and that he stayed with him for a brief period of time until his, the president's apartment, was ready.”
