Obama's Half Brother Arrested In Kenya On Drug Charges

We already have our Billy Carter moment for President Obama. His half brother was arrested in Kenya on drug charges.
The half-brother of President Barack Obama has been arrested for alleged possession of marijuana, Kenyan police said Saturday.

Area police chief Joshua Omokulongolo said George Obama was picked up Saturday and was being held at the Huruma police post in the capital.

Omokulongolo said officers found one joint of marijuana on him.

Obama reportedly denied the allegations.

"I don't know why they are charging me," CNN quoted Obama as saying from jail.
Billy Carter was known for his outlandish actions, and became a running gag line for comics.
