The Enquirer is wrong.

Frank Marshall Davis wrote a pornographic novel under the pseudonym Bob Greene, one chapter of which is devoted to the protagonist and his wife having sex with a thirteen year old girl, according to a British website (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/uselection2008/barackobama/2601914/Frank-Marshall-Davis-alleged-Communist-was-early-influence-on-Barack-Obama.html) on 24 August. According to the British website, "Mr Davis (writing as Greene) explains that although he has “changed names and identities…all incidents I have described have been taken from actual experiences."

In a same day report citing the British website, "Accuracy In Media" (AIM) reported that Edgar Tidwell, an "expert in the life and writing of Davis" confirms that Frank Marshall Davis wrote "Sex Rebel: Black" as a semi-autobiographical novel. Despite Tidwell's expert opinion that the novel was SEMI-autobiographical, AIM's Cliff Kincaid escalated accusations against Davis by first claiming he was a sex pervert (http://www.aim.org/aim-column/obamas-red-mentor-was-a-pervert/) in their 24 August report. (Kincaid falsely attributed the "pervert" claim to the British website.) On 14 October, AIM again escalated the charges by claiming Davis was an "admitted child molester" (http://www.aim.org/aim-column/was-a-communist-obamas-sex-teacher/).

There are at least four distinct disclaimers that indemnify Frank Marshall Davis from literal attribution of this novel:

a. According to dictionary.com, "identity" means "condition or character as to who a person or what a thing is: a case of mistaken identity." Changing name AND identities means changing names AND other "condition or character as to who a person or what a thing is," which may include biographical data such as age.

b. "Taken from actual experiences" does not mean they are accurate representations of actual experiences. It only means they are based on actual experiences.

c. Edgar Tidwell, the expert on the life and writing of Frank Marshall Davis, says the book is "semiautobiographical," which (according to dictionary.com) means "1. pertaining to or being a fictionalized account of an author's own life. 2. pertaining to or being a work of fiction strongly influenced by events in an author's life."

d. Further, scandalous memoirs such as "Sex Rebel: Black (Memoirs of a Gash Gourmet)" have been a literary genre for centuries. According to Wikipedia, such fictional novels are allegedly factual, but are largely invented. The title, alone, qualifies it as a "scandalous memoir."

In an honest evaluation, any of these disclaimers should protect the author from literal interpretation. The combination of all four should provide absolute protection from any culpability. Unfortunately, Davis's accusers are dishonest. Like Mike Nifong, the disgraced ex-D.A. in the Duke lacrosse case, their campaign to demonize their target ignores exculpatory evidence in their reckless rush to judgment. In order to smear Barack Obama through guilt-by-association with Frank Marshall Davis, they are virtually lynching Davis by grossly misrepresenting his character and influence.

In "Sex Rebel," Davis's Bob Greene (not unlike Nabokov's Humbert Humbert) hesitates at a pubescent girl's sexual invitation, but foolishly relents. Like "Lolita," Davis's faux foreword is written by a Ph.D impersonator who details the psychological significance of the memoir. Like Nabokov, Davis wanted to write under a pseudonym to shield his reputation, but felt compelled to reveal his authorship. As a result, however, Davis has been posthumously accused of pedophilia, while "Lolita" is "considered by many to be one of the finest novels written in the 20th century." In 1998, it was named the fourth greatest English language novels of the 20th century by the Modern Library," despite also being initially dismissed as pornography, according to Wikipedia.

This deliberate misrepresentation is only the latest in a long series of falsehoods by AIM professional prevaricators. Their "specific misrepresentation" is documented at http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/Kaleokualoha/gGxdvX. I invite any person of integrity to refute my evidence against any of these AIM lies. If AIM had authentic evidence of Davis's radical influence, they would not need to fabricate such evidence.

Kaleokuoloha,

You made quite an excursion around "Robinhood's Barn!" Nevertheless, it is corroborated that this work of Frank Marshall Davis is "semiautobiographical."

Also, does not Barack Obama write of being taken to the brothel hook-up bar with porn pictures on the wall -- as a child?

Grandpa and Obi Wan Davis are both implicated by their own behavior. Obama does not deny; he provides corroborative information.

Kaleokualoha, one more thing, please: how do you define "pervert?" You would imply that you have quite a "parsed" one that would set the bar quite high (really low) so it would be interesting to see it.

If 1/20/09 comes and goes with a usurper in the Whitehouse (that is, Obama is definitely NOT an Article II "natural born citizen" -- dad Kenyan/British citizen at BHO's birth --albeit he MAY BE a 14th Amendment "citizen") with usurper enablers in Congress and the Supreme Court … God help us because many of the people will — rightfully and under our Constitution and Declaration of Independence — endeavor through other means to take back the Government from what is nothing less than a non-constitutional coup d’etat.

SCOTUS now does have the power to forestall that grim yet inevitable scenario, otherwise the blood and possible loss of our Constitutional Republic is SQUARELY ON THEIR HEADS.

YOU WROTE: "Nevertheless, it is corroborated that this work of Frank Marshall Davis is "semiautobiographical."

RESPONSE: Yes; this means that NONE of the events may be literally attributed to the author.

YOU WROTE "Also, does not Barack Obama write of being taken to the brothel hook-up bar with porn pictures on the wall -- as a child?"

RESPONSE: What does this have to do with Davis?


YOU WROTE: "Grandpa and Obi Wan Davis are both implicated by their own behavior."

RESPONSE: What Davis behavior implicated him in what offense?

YOU WROTE: "Kaleokualoha, one more thing, please: how do you define "pervert?" You would imply that you have quite a "parsed" one that would set the bar quite high (really low) so it would be interesting to see it."

RESPONSE: In this context, Dictionary.com defines "perversion" as "any of various means of obtaining sexual gratification that are generally regarded as being abnormal." The fictional Bob Greene character may qualify, just as Humbert Humbert may qualify. This does not mean that the authors also qualify.

K.,

It would be highly unlikely for a the author of a sensationalistic semiautobiography not to be semiautobiographical about the most achievably sensationalistic and thematically present elements of his opus.

As to the brothel pickup bar, was that not an establishment which the perverted Frank as well as perverted grandfather Stanley frequented?

BTW, the "sexual revolution" was a documented element of the Communist revolution in the Russia, of which Davis was such a fan.

It is also documented as being a part of the Communist movement in America, by Congressional investigation.

It might be said (though I don't defend the writer) that Lolita is a work of backhanded moralism, against the main character, Humbert. Kubrick bastardized the story in his movie, blaming the victim as a cowardly pedophile would.

If you see some moralistic denunciation of the main character of "Sex Rebel" instead of the celebration and promulgation of his perversion, feel free to write a book review.

Writing such a book as "Sex Rebel" is as evil as engaging in the acts themselves, if not worse.

BTW, what does "kaleokualoha" mean?

YOU WROTE: It would be highly unlikely for a the author of a sensationalistic semiautobiography not to be semiautobiographical about the most achievably sensationalistic and thematically present elements of his opus.

RESPONSE: Of course, it's "semiautobiographical," which means a FICTIONALIZED account. It's highly unlikely you were paying attenion in grade school, when they explained the difference between fact and fiction. I would really like to know what degree of OCD make someone still attribute the character's action to Davis despite four levels of disclaimer. It would require poorer judgment than an original OJ juror.

YOU WROTE: As to the brothel pickup bar, was that not an establishment which the perverted Frank as well as perverted grandfather Stanley frequented?

RESPONSE: Your question is a dishonestly loaded question, because you have failed to substantiate that either Frank or grandfather were perverted. What documented behavior was perverted?

Secondly, unless Davis took him to the bar, it is irrelevant to any discussion of Davis's relationship with Obama. Does the book SAY that Davis took him to the bar? Not from my recollection!

YOU WROTE: "Writing such a book as "Sex Rebel" is as evil as engaging in the acts themselves, if not worse."

RESPONSE: What an interesting theory! Do you live in "Right-Wing Fantasyland" (see http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/Kaleokualoha/gG59cf)? Does it also mean that writing about the Inquisition "is as evil as engaging in the acts themselves, if not worse." How about writing about the Holocaust, or writing about the Marquis de Sade? Or writing fiction about prostitution, murder, espionage, or the drug trade today?

YOU WROTE: For seven years, the presidential candidate had a 'father-son' relationship with Frank Marshall Davis, who has confessed to having sex with children, sadomasochism, bondage and practicing a wide array of deviant sexual activities."

RESPONSE: This is false on two levels. Obama did NOT have a "father-son relationship" with Davis. This is a complete misrepresentation of the relationship outlined in Obama's book. Did YOU read the book? Secondly, Davis confessed to none of those acts. This is another complete misrepresentation, done through ignorance or malice. The author has intellectual honesty challenges.

BTW: I am still waiting to know: What Davis behavior implicated him in what offense?

While I wait for that, here is more to chew over:

YOU WROTE: As to the brothel pickup bar, was that not an establishment which the perverted Frank as well as perverted grandfather Stanley frequented?

RESPONSE: Your question is a dishonestly loaded question, because you have failed to substantiate that either Frank or grandfather were perverted. What documented behavior was perverted?

Secondly, unless Davis took him to the bar, it is irrelevant to any discussion of Davis's relationship with Obama. Does the book SAY that Davis took him to the bar? Not from my recollection!

UPDATE: I verfied that "Dreams From My Father" does not say anything about Davis or Grandfather frequenting a "brothel pickup bar." It does not even mention such a place.

It does, however, mention a bar in Honolulu's red-light district, where Grandfather brought young Obama, at about the same time he met Davis in Waikiki. Perhaps you PRESUMED the bar is a brothel, PRESUMED it is a pickup bar, PRESUMED Davis frequented it, and PRESUMED Davis brought Obama there. That may be in character, because jumping to conclusions is frequent in Right-Wing Fantasyland.
