If you can recall from 8th grade the history of Auschwitz, perhaps you can recall which camp in Germany was the first to be liberated by US forces? And by which units?

We all learn different things and retain them in different ways.
And we all can mis-speak at any given time.

And more importantly, every campaign office has books and books and books covering everything about the other candidates.
I would find it very hard to believe that the GOP did not know about Obama's Uncle war record.
And if they did not, would have taken less than 2 minutes to find out.

And from what I saw in my morning paper and on the morning news shows, this matter is no longer in news cycle.
My thoughts were along the same lines when I heard this! Stories get passed down through generations! A great uncle is often considered an uncle! And it of course may be confused which camp was liberated as we talk about over 60 years later! Honestly, the illustration is still the same!
