McCain Campaign Investigated, Dismissed Obama Citizenship Rumors
Friday, July 24, 2009 at 8:38 am
In the final months of the 2008 presidential race, Sen. John McCain’s (R-Ariz.) campaign learned of a lawsuit filed in Pennsylvania that asked the state to strip Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) of the Democratic nomination on suspicion that he was not an American citizen. The complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief was filed by Phil Berg, a former deputy state attorney general who left government in 1990 for a series of gadfly political campaigns. His last round of notoriety had come when he filed RICO complaints against George W. Bush, Saddam Hussein and multiple members of the Bush administration for “accountability” for the 9/11 attacks. Still, Berg’s complaint had gotten glancing local media attention, and the Democratic National Committee’s counsel had filed a motion to dismiss it. One lawyer who was doing some work for the campaign was tasked with reading Berg’s lawsuit and gauging its chances of success.
“The conversation was along the lines of ‘this is idiotic, but explain to me why,’” said the lawyer, who spoke under condition of anonymity to TWI. “I looked at whether the lawsuit was going to be dismissed. I said yes.”
Berg’s main problem was the one that has bedeviled the small, but growing, number of lawyers and amateur attorneys who have filed frivolous lawsuits against President Obama on the “question” of his American citizenship. He and they have run up against the doctrine of standing, which requires plaintiffs to prove that they have been or will be harmed by the law that they’re challenging. Like the people who challenged McCain’s citizenship in 2008 and 2000, or the people who challenged Dick Cheney’s right to run for vice president because he, like George W. Bush, resided in Texas, “birther” plaintiffs have failed again and again to get their cases heard because they lack standing.
“We monitored the progress of these lawsuits against the Obama campaign,” said Trevor Potter, a Washington attorney who served as general counsel to the 2008 and 2000 McCain presidential campaigns. “The McCain campaign faced a series of lawsuits like this, too, alleging that he could not be president because he was born in the Panama Canal Zone. Both campaigns took the position that these plaintiffs lacked standing.”
But the flawed conception of the many “birther” lawsuits, coupled with the inexperience and foul-ups of “birther” lawyers, have only fed the frenzy over Obama’s legitimacy to serve as president of the United States. A survey of the lawsuits filed against Obama reveals a reliance on widely debunked rumors, bogus stories sourced back to web sites, affidavits from “experts” who refuse to provide credentials or even their real names, and frequent and blatant misunderstandings of basic constitutional law. The dismissal of “birther” lawsuits has allowed conspiracy theorists to believe that the information in those suits is accurate–a belief that manifests itself in the emails, phone calls, and town hall meeting rants that have pushed the theories into the mainstream media and the halls of Congress.
While they ruled out any chance of the “birther” lawsuits holding up in court, lawyers for the McCain campaign did check into the rumors about Obama’s birth and the assertions made by Berg and others. “To the extent that we could, we looked into the substantive side of these allegations,” said Potter. “We never saw any evidence that then-Senator Obama had been born outside of the United States. We saw rumors, but nothing that could be sourced to evidence. There were no statements and no documents that suggested he was born somewhere else. On the other side, there was proof that he was born in Hawaii. There was a certificate issued by the state’s Department of Health, and the responsible official in the state saying that he had personally seen the original certificate. There was a birth announcement in the Honolulu Advertiser, which would be very difficult to invent or plant 47 years in advance.”
“Birther” lawyers and bloggers, who gained an unexpected prominence in the mainstream media, have consistently denied Hawaii’s own records of Obama’s birth. They have also built up a corpus of information which, they argue, would invalidate Obama’s claim on the White House even if he was born in the United States. These rumors, and the inability of “birther” lawyers to test them in court, have proven pervasive enough to fuel the conspiracy theories.
After the DNC requested a dismissal of Berg’s lawsuit, he responded in a Sept. 29, 2008 filing that cited numerous Internet rumors and incorrect citations of American and international law. Berg cited “Wikipedia Italian version” and “Rainbow Edition News Letter” as evidence that Obama had not been clear about which hospital he was born in; he alleged that Obama must have been adopted by Lolo Soetoro, the Indonesian man who married Obama’s mother when the future president was five years old, because he attended elementary school in that country. Because a contemporary school record referred to Obama as “Barry Soetoro” and listed his nationality as “Indonesian,” Berg argued that there was “absolutely no way Obama could have ever regained ‘natural born’ status.”
“That’s just completely wrong,” said Mitzi Torri, an Arizona-based immigration lawyer. Torri pointed to the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, which sets a high bar for renunciation of American citizenship. According to the INA, an American can only forfeit his citizenship if he commits treason, if he makes a “formal declaration of allegiance to a foreign state,” or if he becomes a citizen of another country “upon his own application or upon an application filed by a duly authorized agent.”
“Berg wants to say,” said Torri, “that this document from a school in Indonesia, which has no signature, which has no standing whatsoever, is more important than Obama’s birth certificate or our immigration law.”
Berg’s filings made other claims that have shown up in anti-Obama lawsuits and in the proliferation of “birther” Website. One relies on an audio tape of Obama’s step-grandmother Sarah Obama, who lives in Kenya, being goaded into saying (through a translator) that the future president was born in Kenya before quickly correcting herself. (A doctored version of this tape, which cuts off before the retraction, is posted on YouTube.) Another claim: Obama traveled to Pakistan in 1981, when it was illegal for an American to do so, suggesting that he used a non-American passport. The problem is that there never was any such ban.
“We have no record of any travel ban between America and Pakistan during that period or since,” said Noel Clay, a spokesman for the State Department.
“We got that from someplace,” Berg told TWI on Thursday. In an email, he added his paralegal was “reviewing” his files on Pakistan. Yet the false claim appears in Orly Taitz’s lawsuit on behalf of perennial presidential candidate Alan Keyes, which argues that Obama visited Pakistan “when entrance to Pakistan was banned to Americans, Christians and Jews,” proof that he gave up his American citizenship.
In October 2008, when Berg v. Obama et al was dismissed for lack of standing, the attorney told sympathetic reporters that the DNC had “admitted” the truth about Obama’s citizenship by not rebutting his claims. Joseph Sandler, who filed motions to dismiss Berg’s case and other Obama citizenship lawsuits as general counsel, explained why claims like these are never debunked by lawyers for the president.
“When you file a motion to dismiss, to try to get the case thrown out before any factual inquiry is made, the facts that the plaintiffs put into their complaint are assumed to be true,” said Sandler. “You have to show that even if the facts were true, they don’t have a case.”
As a result of that, extremely questionable theories and “facts” have become linchpins of ‘birther’ theories. ‘Birthers’ who refuse to acknowledge the legitimacy of Obama’s Certificate of Live Birth often cite the expertise of “Dr. Ron Polarik,” a self-described “expert in computer graphics” who maintains a blog at Townhall.com and has recorded a video, in which his face and voice are blurred, explaining how the image was “forged” with Adobe Photoshop. “Polarik” submitted an affidavit in support of Orly Taitz’s Keyes case that is signed “XXXXXXXXXXX,” making it inadmissible.
“If it ever comes down to it,” explained Gary Kreep, another lawyer for Keyes, “we’ll use his real name.”
Some anti-Obama claims take the issue entirely out of the hands of the president or Hawaii officials. Carl Swensson, a conservative activist from Georgia, has organized “Citizens’ Grand Juries” that have indicted the president for treason. Mario Apuzzo, a New Jersey attorney, has sued Obama on the grounds that he never was, and never could be, a “natural born” citizen. Both men pass over precedent for “The Law of Nations,” the 1758 treatise by the 18th century French scholar Emerich de Vattel. In one translation, de Vattel writes that “the natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens.” That’s enough for some Obama ‘birthers’ to say that Obama might be a citizen of Kenya–as one constituent of Rep. Mike Castle (R-Del.) put it–but he cannot be a natural born citizen of the United States. “It’s what the founding fathers used,” explained Swensson.
Constitutional scholars consider this a dubious argument at best. “The framers of the 14th Amendment thought about this,” explained Elizabeth Wydra, chief counsel for the Constitutional Accountability Center. “They wanted to make sure that the children of slaves who were brought here illegally, slaves who were brought into this country after the end of the slave trade, would be citizens.”
Apuzzo is not convinced. He argued that the founders wrote the phrase “natural born citizen” for a reason; to make sure that no one with “blood ties” to another country could become president. He speculated what might happen if Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-La.), whose parents were Indian, became president. “India is a nuclear power. Here comes the president, who says we have to go in and attack Pakistan. Are we doing that because we are defending India’s interests? You just don’t know. You can’t have Constitutional rule if you allow this.”
Because of the dismissal tactics used by lawyers for the president, John McCain, and both political parties, believers in these various theories and readings of the Constitution argue that they have never been proven wrong. Although Rep. John Campbell (R-Calif.) explained his support of a House bill that would require copies of birth certificates from presidential candidates by saying it would “put all this to rest,” the very frivolity and obscurity of the challenges to Obama suggest the beginning of a conspiracy theory that will never be debunked to the satisfaction of its believers.

You are correct. McCain’s candidacy was an exercise in egg shell walking. He was a pathetic candidate. In hindsight, I should have not voted for him based upon his ineligibility and just sat out the presidential election. If Arnold has no hope of becoming president (not that I would support him), so should McCain and Obama. McCain is the perfect example of someone who is a citizen but not a natural born citizen. Obama is a fraud and a liar. He was born in Kenya. The clock is ticking on his presidency. I was pleased that the left-wing attack dog Chris Matthews (he had just lambasted Rep. John Campbell about the Posey bill), give G. Gordon Liddy (the G man) a wide berth in discussing the Obama Certification of Live Birth (COLB). At the end of the segment, Matthews indicated that some confirming information as to Obama’s Hawaii birth would be forthcoming in the next couple of weeks. He then asked Liddy if he would apologize and retract his position that Obama is a usurper. Liddy said he would go on the air immediately and do his mea culpas. The question remains: will Matthews do likewise if the information were to confirm a Kenya birth? If so, then he should call for Obama’s immediate resignation. In your dreams.

When ever I make a point on these blogs like this, I am called a sore loser, racist, kook, wing nut, birthers etc., because I do not come across as an Obama supporter.
No, it’s because people who question Obama’s citizenship *are* kooks and wingnuts. He has released a copy of the official Certification of Live Birth from the State of Hawaii, and the responsible state official has vouched for the validity of that document. This is the exact same type of document that I used to get my US Passport, it is *the* official, certified document required by the government as proof of citizenship. End of story.

He’s trying to litigate the definition of natural born citizen. He’ll lose that also. Especially since it appears that he’s trying to claim that since no one has “confirmed” that he’s a natural born citizen, he must be barred from office. Thats absurd. No judge will entertain that. And they lose all credibility by bringing up the Sarah Obama conspiracy theory.
The law is clear, you can be a dual citizen at birth and be a natural born citizen. Thats as clear as it gets. This raises no legitimate cause to hear the case(especially since there’s no law backing it) and to review the documents. The birthers need a shred of proof that he wasn’t born in Hawaii. They have to yet to present it. Asking Obama to prove their negative isn’t proof.

Oh yeah, I never question McCain’s sensibilities or decisions, obviously he’s perfect, especially since he chose (or was forced to accept, both options speak volumes about the man) Palin as his running mate.
Riiight.
As far as why he’d raise it when his own was in question? Either he felt secure in the knowledge he could legally run, or he felt secure that pointing the light at Obama’s citizenship would effectively refocus the laser-eyebeam level paranoia elsewhere.
Either way, it’s not rocket science. And “lol” at the phrase “non-believer” – this is political bollocks, not the coming of Christ. It’s not an issue of faith, it’s an issue of common sense.

If the McCain campaign had found anything that would have allowed them to credibly push this as an issue during the campaign they would have. Contrary to your deliberate misinterpretation of the article, McCain DID NOT raise this as an issue. He dug around to see if there was any dirt to be used to discredit Obama. When he didn’t find any, he moved on. Too bad nutjobs like you can’t do the same.

Dear lord your ignorance is painful to behold.
You can’t even apply for a passport with that yellow-parchment gold-seal footprint thingie that looks so impressive and original to you. You have to request an official document from your state and they will issue a certification of live birth. What that will look like and what will be on that, will vary from state to state. For example, mine does not have footprints and DOES in fact look exactly like a photocopy made onto a sheet of normal, uncoarse, un-rough paper with a blue border on it albeit the paper is watermarked. It has an embossed seal and a stamp with date of issuance from the registrar which is the year 2007 (just like Obama’s). It’s so very plain looking. This “thing that looks like a normal piece of paper” is the ONLY document acceptable when applying for a passport. They practically laughed at me when I presented my old parchment with footprints on it at the post office. This plain paper photocopy looking thing is exactly what Obama was issued from his state, what has been examined in person by fact checking organizations, photos of itall over the net showing the embossed seal etc; what has been verified by the State of Hawaii itself. Your delusions are nobody’s problem but your own, but a quick remedy would be for you to call the Hawaii Dept of Heath yourself and ask them if your claims are accurate about their official documents..and argue with them about how you “know better.” Then get back to us how that goes for you.

First, Mario Puzo wrote THE GODFATHER, among other novels, and died in 1999.
Second, your beef with the government arguing that there is no constitutional obligation in these cases isn’t Obama’s doing. It’s that of the framers. Once the Office of President is filled — which it has been — only Congress has the power to do what birthers are attempting to do with these lawsuits.
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 4:07 pm
1) Yours is not “an orignal” it is a cute souvenir. It is not remotely acceptable as proof of citizenship when obtaining a federally issued passport.
2) Obama’s is real because it is the official document issued by the State of Hawaii to people born in Hawaii and it has been verified by them. All your parchment paper gold seal footprint spew and about how that constitutes “real proof” is pure b.s. and you’ve been called on it.
My official document, valid for obtaining a passport, has no gold seal. So you can just leave ALL OF THAT OUT of your argument, now, because you are repeatedly demonstrating you KNOW NOTHING about what you are saying. Because you are an ignorant hillbilly who has never even gone so far as to get a passport.

Your comment is a perfect example of the ignorance of the birthers.
Obama senior was never a citizen of Indonesia, you’re confusing him with Obama’s step-father. When Obama was born, neither of his parents had ever been to Kenya. In fact, Anne Dunham had never left the country.
As the article states, the law says that you cannot relinquish your citizenship unless you commit treason or formally renounce it, something Obama could not do when he was a child.
Since you don’t even know the basic facts of the situation, it’s no surprise that you believe this silly theory. This is what happens when you base your theory on someone’s blog.

2. Who is “they” that supposedly sealed up all the records???? I guess “they” did this in hopes that someone “they” didn’t even know was going to run for president one day?????
3. Military officers have not been allowed to discharge from duty(?) or ignore orders to go overseas. The instance you are referring to (because there has only been one) resulted from a volunteer deciding that he did not want to go. As in this case the nutjob had already been dismissed from going by the military (they didn’t want him either apparently) long before the suit. He purposely enlisted and then unenlisted within the 30 day window. Again facts please.

You are right congress will have to action if it comes to that. Like I said I make no claims one way or another, I am not qualified to make that call.
We the people have the right to use the courts to obtain discovery and a fair ruling. I believe the courts can order congress to investigate or take action.
Going through the courts is how the people can keep the power of congress and the executive branch in check.
Best wishes,

Thomas Jefferson was one of the authors perhaps you could be more honest and pick up a book yourself before slamming someone else.
Authors of the US Constitution
A man named Gouverneur Morris of Pennsylvania was in charge of the committee to draft the final copy of the Constitution. Other men who had much to do with writing the Constitution included John Dickinson, Gouverneur Morris, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Thomas Paine, Edmund Randolph, James Madison, Roger Sherman, James Wilson, and George Wythe. Morris was given the task of putting all the convention’s resolutions and decisions into polished form. Morris actually “wrote” the Constitution. The original copy of the document is preserved in the National Archives Building in Washington, D.C.
Jacob Shallus who, at the time, was assistant clerk of the Pennsylvania State Assembly, and whose office was in the same building in which the Convention was held, was given the task of engrossing the Constitution prior to its being signed.
Here is more input from others:
* The U.S. Constitution is the work of several men, directly and indirectly. The three most notable persons whose work influenced the Constitution but who were not involved in its writing are Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and Thomas Paine. The group of men involved in the writing of the Constitution are generally referred to as the “framers”.
* No single individual wrote it. Twelve of the thirteen states sent delegates to the Constitutional Convention to revise the Articles of Confederation and the entire convention worked on it. After the political questions were hashed out a ‘committee of style’ was formed to put the ideas into formal words. It is generally accepted that Gouverneur Morris created most of the actual wording included in the final draft from the Committee of Style.
* Primary Author: James Madison (Drafted the Virginia Plan)
* The original copy of the document is preserved in the National Archives Building in Washington, D.C.

Prove you were born in the U.S. to someone who discounts your birth certificate, your driver’s license, your passport AND a vetting by the Secret Service and your presidential opponent’s researchers. At that point, there is nothing you could say that would convince someone other than a trip back in time and an invitation in to see the actual birth.
Of course Obama has provided MORE than this. We have an official certification from the appropriate office in Hawaii, we have a statement from the Republican Governor of Hawaii. We have two birth announcements in local Hawaiian news papers.
Tell wise one. What would put this to rest for you?
The answer is nothing. No one in the US could prove any more clearly that they were born in the US to anyone unless the doubter were in the delivery room. I suspect their hatred of Obama would probably be strong enough to rework their memories anyway. If Obama’s parents took video of his wife driving to the hospital and continuously filmed to the delivery, someone would claim the film was doctored.
Obama has bent over backward and proved beyond a doubt that he is a citizen. Could you get an affidavit from the Governor of your birth state?
This is all fueled by hatred. I personally believe that hatred is partial based on racism and partially based on the fear ginned up for decades by the Republicans.
The RNC would rather see a civil war than Democratic control.

You may not agree with the arguments, but a photo copy from Hawaii isn’t enough to “prove” he was born in Hawaii.
The document that was posted on the web was an original COLB from the State of Hawaii, the authenticity of which has been verified by the director of the responsible state department.
The point is they won’t release his birth records.
He did, see above.
There is no evidence to prove he was born in Hawaii.
Other than the official document provided by the state of Hawaii, the same one that can be used to apply for a US passport. In other words, absolute evidence.
I have an original, typed, signed birth certificate from 50 years ago. The government would not accept it when I applied for my passport, they wanted the state issued COLB, just like the one that Obama has.
You people are really clueless.

Your first comment is incorrect. If you were to print out this photoshopped piece of shit, the passport issuer would send you home. So, first of all, posting incorrect info to try to sound authoritative.
Secnd point about the truth, seems to apply more to you based on #1 above.
The rest of it is ignorant drivel, only worth clarification in that this is for many (and there are MANY and growing) people, a matter of constitutional law, and not personal bias. You however seem to be pretty satisfied blidly accusing many around you of racism,etc– If anything you seem to destroy your own credibility while at the same time lending credence to those who pursue this issue because of a love for the rule of the law of our nation, rather than blind allegiance to the office of the presidency.

People have questions about the content of the Long Form Birth Certifcate. This letter only states that the director has “personally” seen and verified.
The reason the official birth certificate it is prohibited to be release to others because Obama sealed it. It is on him unless he is suited in court to release it.
There is no point arguing something neither party can proof or disprove if the question is not the COLB or other online copies. If there is a question of the facts..you check the original facts not a copy.
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 6:26 pm
Note the careful wording – “…on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.”
What it does NOT say is Obama’s place of birth is verified. What hospital? What attending physician? The long form will have that.
Additionally Hawaii is a (surprise!) a chain of islands. Births (especially as far back as 1961) could be delayed in being reported.
So O’Dumbo could have been born in Kenya as his Grandmother says and momma gets him to Hawaii some time later & ‘reports’ the birth. Hawaii (at that time & perhaps still) would issue the COLB on the basis of the ‘report’. No way to verify.
Same with the paper – they accept notices from anyone. So ‘legitimizing’ BHO sr.’s bastard son would be easy enough.
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 6:32 pm
Nobody’s kept quiet, and – as has been verified many, many times – independent experts have seen the original birth certificate and testified under oath that it’s okay. The reason the story is still around is that facts and testimony and reason are of no interest to the people who sell this patently absurd and repeatedly disproven nonsense to gullible fools.

Exactly.
When I applied for a U.S. passport a couple of years ago, I ran into difficulty because the federal government did not recognize my original hospital birth certificate as an official record of birth–it lacked the necessary embossed, notarized seal from the local county.
So I had to apply to the state government for an official, notarized record of birth, which required filling out forms, paying fees, supplying other documentation, and waiting 8 weeks for them to confirm the validity of the information with the local county records office.
So my official birth certificate, the one that the federal government recognizes, is the same type that Obama has in Hawaii.

Justice is an impartial discovery, hearing and ruling of the evidence.
The Kangaroo Court of the media and the blogisphere is not the place to judge the accusations.
To me this case is not about a 48 year old piece of paper but our Constitutional Right to petition the government for a redress of our grievances.
Obama's defense has been that the government has no constitutional obligation to hear the grievance and that ordinary people have no standing in the courts.
I make no claims one way or another in regards to his eligibility. I have read the arguments on both sides. The evidence requested by the plaintiffs is simple to produce. Their opposition is not an honorable position.
One would think that Obama would honor his oath to defend the constitution, face his accusers and make his case for the good of the country.
When ever I make a point on these blogs like this, I am called a sore loser, racist, kook, wing nut, birthers etc., because I do not come across as an Obama supporter. Oh well, the right to petition our government for a redress our grievances and to be heard and judged impartially is something I will give my life to defend.
God Bless you and your families.

There's nothing wrong with petitioning the government through the courts to address grievances you may have. But when the state of Hawaii and their republican governor confirm that Obama was born in Hawaii as he claims, you're going to need some hard evidence that Obama and the state of Hawaii are lying to force a hearing. Just demanding that your questions be answered isn't enough.

I am not going to resort to ad hominem attacks. I would just like to point out that the 14th Amendment says “citizen” it does not say “natural born citizen.” The term of art “natural born citizen” only appears in the constitution when discussing the qualification of the POTUS and the VPOTUS. So the 14th does not obviously obviate the qualification in Article II. Also, all of the cases in this area are citizenship cases. There has never been a presidential qualification case wherein “natural born citizen” has been defined. We simply do not know how the SCOTUS will apply the term “natural born citizen” to a dual citizen. It might mean, as you suggest, anyone who is a citizen at birth. Or it might mean someone who is only a US citizen at birth, and would exclude anyone born with dual citizenship, dual allegiances and divided loyalty. We just do not know. And I am certainly not going to call someone an idiot for think one or the other interpretation is correct.

Why spend a million dollars in legal fees to prolong the question when you can show the real long form certified birth certificate already in your possession and end the issue. Just because you are President, you are still expected to obey the law. Nixon (White guy) is a good example if you took a America history class.
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 2:17 pm
The POTUS' cannot release the original birth certificate by law it has to stay in Hawaii with the Dept. of Health. Copies have been released to numerous news papers and websites. As long as people want to use this faux argument to hide behind so they can express there racism and hatred this will be around.
Mayee this was never a christian nation. It was founded by many that were christians but they chose wisely to keep the government secular. Read the Treaty of Tripoli which was ratified by congress in 1797
“Art. 11. As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Mussulmen; and, as the said States never entered into any war, or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties, that no pretext arising from religious opinions, shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries.”
Read the letters of Franklin, Jefferson and others and you will see that most of the founding fathers felt it was best to keep government and religion seperate.
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 7:18 pm
I lost count of the number of faulty claims and misquotations in Mayree’s comment above.
However, here’s a few:
“…brought his honor to a knife fight with Obama and got gutted…”
(the usual aphorism is “brought a knife to a gun fight”);
“…goes to a muslim country and says, ‘American (sp) is no longer a christain (sp) nation, then goes to Cario (sp) and tells the world, America is one of the larger muslim countries…”
(the true quotes are: 1) “we have a very large Christian population — we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation. We consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values.” and 2) “And one of the points I want to make is, is that if you actually took the number of Muslim Americans, we’d be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world. And so there’s got to be a better dialogue and a better understanding between the two peoples.”
I hesitate to throw your words back at you, Mayree, but yes, you’d have to be short of being an idiot…to accept what YOU said instead of what the President actually really said, which was to acknowledge that there ARE considerable numbers of Christians AND Muslims AND Jews (and a lot of Buddhists, Wiccans, Druids, and atheists, too) in the United States/America.
I also lost count of the misspellings… :) …a common problem amongst “birthers” and other wingnuts.

There is plenty of evidence showing Obama is a natural born US citizen and ZERO evidence even suggesting he wasn't born here. I have never seen Bush's birth certificate so should I assume UNTIL I see a physical copy of his birth records that he is a foreigner?

Dear Birthers
Obama already presented his birth certificate to the people that matter. NO ONE gets an original copy of their birth certificate. If you go to the DMV, you bring your certificate of live birth, not your original birth certificate. He's the president (and legally, I might add), he doesn't have to do any more to prove his citizenship than he already has. If you had good evidence, you would have a case. But you don't. So deal with it and shut up.
The funny thing is, you don't even know what you would do if by some reversal of the planets that Obama was somehow president illegally. What then? Biden is president? Pelosi? Or maybe you think there will be a reelection and Sarah Palin will be our new president. LOL. What exactly is your plan of action besides being racist and frustrated?

If you have time, read the legal documents for the case Kerchner vs. Obama at http://puzo1.blogspot.com/. I think that this case has the best chance of being heard soon. Mario Puzo is a competent attorney and the case and the blog is not being run like a three ring money making circus like similar operations.
The government lawyers said in their recent motion to dismiss, that the government has no constitutional obligation to hear the grievances of the citizens that hit me like a punch in the gut.
The government lawyers have not raised the vague statements made by Hawaiian officials as proof that the charges are bogus. Mario Puzo addresses the Statements by the Hawaiian officials.
I believe that there is legitimate cause for the court to hear the case and review the documents.

After all, the matter is a moot point now anyway. Obama is the President and that genie can't be put back in the bottle.

Mayree you need to go back and read the entire article again. For example:
“Berg’s filings made other claims that have shown up in anti-Obama lawsuits and in the proliferation of “birther” Website. One relies on an audio tape of Obama’s step-grandmother Sarah Obama, who lives in Kenya, being goaded into saying (through a translator) that the future president was born in Kenya before quickly correcting herself. (A doctored version of this tape, which cuts off before the retraction, is posted on YouTube.) Another claim: Obama traveled to Pakistan in 1981, when it was illegal for an American to do so, suggesting that he used a non-American passport. The problem is that there never was any such ban.”
and…
“‘Birthers’ who refuse to acknowledge the legitimacy of Obama’s Certificate of Live Birth often cite the expertise of “Dr. Ron Polarik,” a self-described “expert in computer graphics” who maintains a blog at Townhall.com and has recorded a video, in which his face and voice are blurred, explaining how the image was “forged” with Adobe Photoshop. “Polarik” submitted an affidavit in support Orly Taitz’s Keyes case that is signed “XXXXXXXXXXX,” making it inadmissible.”
and, particularly troubling…
“Apuzzo is not convinced. He argued that the founders wrote the phrase “natural born citizen” for a reason; to make sure that no one with “blood ties” to another country could become president. He speculated what might happen if Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-La.), whose parents were Indian, became president. “India is a nuclear power. Here comes the president, who says we have to go in and attack Pakistan. Are we doing that because we are defending India’s interests? You just don’t know. You can’t have Constitutional rule if you allow this.”
This would mean the native americans are the only people with rights to be here, and we'll have to go back to the countries where we have “blood ties”. What country are you from Mayree? My “blood ties” are to Ireland.

I had to laugh when Gary Kreep says “if it ever comes down to it, we'll use his real name” about “Dr. Ron Polarik.” Polarik will never share his real name, nor will he ever appear in a court of law. His credentials change constantly, and he refuses to state where he earned his alleged degree. Polarik is a fraud.
No one has added more fuel to the fire with this birth certificate conspiracy nonsense than this Polarik character. He has done immeausurable damage to the Republican party and the conservative moment by posting one lie after another. Just google Polarik on a google blog search, and his schizophrenia has been well documented.

A smart move by “Panama Reb” McCain's handlers considering this Manchurian Candidate truly was born on foreign soil and never produced a US birth certificate.

What most “birther” nitwits don’t seem to get through their thick skulls is that “a copy of the official Certification of Live Birth” for President Obama — the one that everyone has seen posted on the Internet — is the SAME KIND OF DOCUMENT as the one that wingnut woman in the red shirt at the town hall meeting with Rep. Mike Castle of Delaware waved around in a ziploc bag during her rant.
NO ONE has their true original birth certificate in their own sweaty hands (or in a safe deposit box or safe), including that raving “birther” woman at the town hall meeting. They have a COPY that’s been prepared by the county/district/borough Office of Records staff from the ORIGINAL which is kept in protected vault storage (hopefully safe unless the building actually burns down to a smoky cinder or is destroyed in a lava flow — not likely on Oahu — it’s a good thing Obama wasn’t born in Hilo on the Big Island).
That COPY is then stamped or embossed with the seal of the county/district/borough of birth and verified by the agent responsible for the storage of the document.
The only difference between an old-time handwritten COPY and the one that’s on the Internet for Obama is that Obama’s COPY is an updated-technology version. Some counties/districts/boroughs have modernized their technology….
Most people don’t get an updated copy of their original birth certificate unless they lose the one they’d been holding onto for years, or, in Obama’s case, a timely updated version is more readable than one that’s traveled in a worn envelope through 40+ years and a number of localities in several countries.
It’s bizarre that this is beyond the understanding of presumably educated “birther” people.

Just as after the Civil War black men were subjected to tests in order to vote, tests that had no right answers or the answers were changed at will, there is a certain faction of white people who cannot comprehend a black man having all of the same rights and will go to great length to harass them so they feel superior. This is a ridiculous throwback to a shameful tactic used by small insignificant people who should question their own patriotism for wasting time and resources on such a racist action.

this will not go away because, you cannot prove a negative. An official copy with a raised seal from Hawaii could be delivered to every person in the US and they still would not believe because they don't want to believe.

Including your crap about Hawaii’s Dr. Onaka denying that a certificate had been issued. I researched that. You know, just cause some jackass on d a right-wing blog says it’s true is NOT proof. So, if you have any proof OTHER than an unverified, heresay quote from someone with an agneda, please let us know.

1. you hate Obama
2. you know how to cut and paste.
3. you willingly substitute opinion for facts

You are ridiculous and America is getting tired of the reverse racism card. It's used up. Birthers cannot stand that a black man is the leader and keep demanding what YOU decide is proof (but it changes anytime the standard is met). You ignore what the state of Hawaii says is acceptable. Are you so small town that you don't realize states vary on their guidelines concerning birth certificates or is it simply that you don't like the answer you get invalidating your pipe dream?

Every time a birther is shown a web link to, or hard copy of Obama's official birth certificate (you know, the one that is recognized by the federal government when applying for a passport), they pull the equivalent of a 9-year old covering his ears and shouting “nyah, nyah, nyah, I can't hear you!”
You can lead right wingers to the truth, but you cannot make them embrace it.
Each state has its own standard for an official record of birth.
With respect to the true motivations of the birthers, fundamentally, it comes down to the following mindset: “I cannot accept THAT man in the White House because…. (fill in the blank).”
Just about ANY reason will do — any excuse that will legitimize their race-based outrage. If it wasn't about a birth certificate, it would be about his middle name. (He's a closet Muslim, you know.)
In addition, there are a handful of unscrupulous politicians and pundits who, although not necessarily racist themselves, have no problem capitalizing on the bigotry of others by fueling their fear and hatred of Obama in order to score political points or further a personal agenda.

You may not agree with the arguments, but a photo copy from Hawaii isn't enough to “prove” he was born in Hawaii.
If I create a paper print out of my birth so called “hometown of birth” using about 30 minutes in photo shop or someone's database, am I a hawaii citizen too?
Give me break. There is no evidence to prove he was born in Hawaii or Indonesia.
The point is they won't release his birth records. And there is a LOT, and I do mean a lot of circumstantial evidence to suggest he's not a US citizen.
Including eye witnesses and newspaper articles overseas, which means, this is going to get quite ugly since this is about the “LAW” and still no one has shown where he was born.

I strangest part of this whole birther movement is:
None of them realize how a candidate is registered to become President of the USA. That is, each candidate must register with each state separately. It means that 50 states and 6 providences and territories ALL agreed that President Obama was/is eligible to become President.
Apparently all these people involved were part of that Kenyan plot made 48/49 years ago.

It's not evidence at all, I don't understand how someone claiming a “copy” printout can be evidence.
If I get a copy of someone's check even if it was wrote with monopoly money using someone else's name and not a real checkbook, is that suddenly “evidence” I am the writer and depositor of that check?
And no witnesses? I don't think you have ever examined the evidence. There is a lot of witnesses who say, and have showed records, of him as well as his parents being in Indonesia and another country — including a lot which the military has…which is very concerning.
Start thinking about the fact that well, he might not be a US citizen and that does really matter for a lot of reasons. If it was Bush and so called “righties” were defending him it would be the same legal problem, there's someone in office who can't prove where they were born.

How is anyone unnaturally born?
I am a citizen of the USA because I applied for it, took the test required, spent the requisite number of years living here and my application was accepted as a result of which I took an official oath in a court.
So far as I know, anyone born inthe USA even to parents who not citizens of this nation can choose to be a citizen of this country upon reaching the age of majority.
Obama's father not being a citizen of the USA has no bearing on Obama's status as a citizen. Any notion that parentage might affect the possibility of loyalty to the USA should dismiss most of the residents of North America since more than 90% are of immigrantt stock and as such are all untrustworthy to behave in the best interests of this or any other nation.
So far as I am concerned, running for president proves that you are mentally defective. Getting that job costs so much money and involves so much abuse that only someone mentally defective would actively seek such a position. (I realize that it is the path to many riches currently but has a better than average probability that someone may dislike so much as to wish to undertake to harm you.

I believe that the court has to give the plaintiff some benefit of the doubt. The plaintiff needs to show that there is probable cause. The proof can only be released by Obama or by court order.

I have my original Birth Certificate in my hand and my states gave it out to me for free, all he has to do is go to the office, pull it out seal & all and put it before a camera and then put it away.

But instead what they did sealed up all the records……And that is of concern to many americans, that's the actions of communists when you hide public records like that.
Again if he was a fully proven US citizen, then Military officers would not be allowed to discharge from duty as well as ignore any orders to go overseas. Countless military officers have automatically ignored orders, because based on the law, they can not prove he is a US citizen which CONCERNS every citizen of the country.

And just what supposed “evidence” would convince you? The truth is none!!! Even if you fingered the raised texture on the seal of the original birth certificate, provided to you by the Governor of Hawaii, confirmed by the very doctor who delivered him it would mean nothing to your or any other of this sad crowd. What amazes me is how quickly folks invoke that word “LAW” when the truth of the matter is the criminals who took this country from the original inhabitants using GOD as their excuse, much like the Israelis used GOD as their excuse to commit genocide against peoples in the purported “promised land [thousands of years ago and today], created the “LAW” to justify their actions. Until we learn the very simple lesson of “Do unto others….AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO”, “LAW” will always be an excuse for the most shameful behavior. Believe me!!!

The repuglicans are using the ignorance of the birther movement to create civil disobedience and unrest allowing the underlying racial bigotry to surface. It's nothing more than Kabuki Theatre being played on the political stage and the birthers are nothing more than the willing puppets completely unaware its nothing but a show.

I suspect that the person or persons for the state of Hawaii who encoded the original birth certificate onto electronic media actually SAW the “original birth certificate”. Like they SAW the birth cetificates of every other native born Hawaiian that was tranfered to media when they went paperless. OOOOH…big conspiracy there. I’m sure that like most of us, we at one time or another had to acquire a certified copy of his birth certificate in order to get a drivers license or a passport or whatever. You can get as many of them as you wish, as long as you pay the fees and they would be dated whenever they were physically printed off. Use your heads, folks. But, that said – let the birthers ride! It just makes them and anyone who refuses to refute them look ridiculous! So – bonus for Obama. And thanks for your efforts!

you dont have your original birth certificate you have a copy of the original birth certificate. the state keeps the original.
but lets say you have the original for fun. there is a fire in your house it is burned up. now you need to show when you were born. you go to the states. oops they dont have it because they gave you the original and you destroyed it.

The law makes it clear, that the two parents must be US citizens at the time of birth and not just be visiting.

The problem is that there is no clear line of reasoning that Hussein Sr. or his mother ever obtained US citizenship, because they have for a long time held citizenship in Indonesia which means they relinquish their US citizenship – as they can't be in two places at once.
You can't legally be a resident of Indonesia overseas and still be a US citizen, and you can't be “born” naturally while you are still an Indonesian citizen.
Right there, Judges try to make this law murky or undefined but there are countless articles which prove the Obama's were not US citizens in that they were still overseas.
And clearly reflected in the law, they are not natural born, if in fact this is all correct then Obama himself being born outside the USA was NEVER a natural citizen which is a concern to every person or should be.
He can not produce his certified sealed copy certificate, which should concern everyone. He produces a print out “copy” of something and that will never fit the legal definition.

God, spare us from idiots with opinions.
The deployment was revoked because the guy had requested the deployment, and, according to the terms of his reserve contract, he was eligible to change his mind up to the day before deployment. His choice, not the Army’s.
In other words, just like this birther nonsense, there was no controversy, no conflict, other than what this guy was trying to rile up.
And, the guy had been posting his intent to do this on Freeper sites for months before he volunteered to deploy, all so he could make a stink and get publicity.
That’s right, he intentionally volunteered just so he could refuse to go – and isn’t that a big screw you to all his fellow soldiers who have to do all the work involved in getting a soldier ready for deployment, and now they have to undo and redo all the work for someone else – all so Maj. Jackass could make a point with his real estate, dentist, lawyer.
As a veteran, and parent of a Marine, I think this guy is a low-life slime, who set this up to get publicity for himself at the expense of the Army, his command, and his troops, who now have to send someone else in this guy’s place.
There’s a special section in Hell for lying cowards, I’m sure they have room for him.

Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 3:35 pm
To: Not settled I would say this.
I was present at my birth but I am unable to describe the room or those who attended, nor do I remember if the doctor slapped me. My mother assured me that I was there and the city supplied with a certfied copy stating that someone with the name I currently use was born to a person who used my mother's name, or the one she used while in my presence. A man whose name matches the name the person I was told was my father and which person used in my presence as his name was asserted to be the father of the baby whose name I am currently using.
Since I am nearly 60 years old I am unable to locate any living persons who attended the birth that I believe is the one I was involved with as a newly born child.
Even more interesting is the notion that America as I knew it inthe early 1960s when I came here held no sane adults who believed that any African American child had any chance of becoming president in the next 100 years. Most did not believe that any civl rights legislation would ever pass muster in Congress. The amount of hope and planning needed in 1961 to set up anyone to become president inthe next 50 years was insanely massive. Let alone to set up a dark skinned child newly born on the path to the presidency.
One of the things I kept hearing school was that anyone can grow up to be president. In the past 47 years since I came to the USA 10 people have managed it, well one already was persident when I arrived. The probability of anyone becoming president, a job that requires several hundred million dollars and years of effort, is nearly insurmountable. Starting a conspiracy of that sort in 1961 with a black child as its intended beneficiary would never have been begun.
Notsettledyet is just religious about this or is simply insane. Such hubris is downright stupid.

You know this is a total joke what you're saying, I wouldn't have to because I received a stamped certified original document. At most it was a second hand creation directly by them.
But it's as real as the original with the seal.
And it is NOT most importantly, a paper printout off the computer
So if I made a paper printout (NOT the course, rough paper that a birth cert is) that said I was born in……China?
I would now be considered a chinese citizen and oh it was stamped with the same date. Let me just ask you again if that is what you are claiming.
Without taking sides here, is that what you are claiming? I'd be chinese?

Hey mr first rate, I have one just like that. Little footprints, yellowed parchment paper, raised gold seal, original signatures in ink. Know what I found out when I applied for a passport? It is not acceptable as an official state document and proof of birth or citizenship. I had to request a “Certification of Vital Record” from my state in order to obtain a passport. The Dept of Health issued this non-parchment piece of paper with a blue border, no footprints, and no original signature anywhere in sight. It is stamped by the registrar with a 2007 date, the year it was issued to me. Just like Obama's.
How about you just get off your conspiracy theory behind and call the Hawaii Dept of Health for yourself and ask about the differences between an original hospital record and the official certificate they issue. Place of birth is not one of those differences, they will be happy to put your deluded mind to rest.

The reason that the Birth Certificate is a real concern and should be to most Americans, is he can't prove where he was born which means that “he” may be operating outside the law.
http://www.yannone.org/BlogDocs/KerchnerAdverto…
Again, this is all so very simple. Release the certified copy or photos of the documents.
Then for the most part everyone will drop it. But see, and the military has looked at this extensively, he can NOT.
Because they sealed up the records.
AND HE MAY NOT ACTUALLY BE A US CITIZEN…..WHICH HAS THE MILITARY CONCERNED AS IT SHOULD CONCERN EVERYONE ELSE…
Because that would mean he's in charge of the country, and possibly taking his orders from some other communist nation. And IF YOU WOULD LOOK AROUND YOU, that ought to concern you as well, there's nothing wrong with asking valid questions for our own sakes…..

The portions of the Immigration and Nationalities Act cited by the attorney you interviewed were ruled unconstitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court in Afroyim v. Rusk, 387 U.S. 253 (1967). Their opinion concluded “We hold that the Fourteenth Amendment was designed to, and does, protect every citizen of this Nation against a congressional forcible destruction of his citizenship, whatever his creed, color, or race. Our holding does no more than to give to this citizen that which is his own, a constitutional right to remain a citizen in a free country unless he voluntarily relinquishes that citizenship.”

If I made a copy record that had “no footprints” like it looked as if it was out of the Department of Health and so on, that's going to mean I live in China?
All I do is say that it means I live in China…therefore because it's the SAME document with China listed instead….I live in China???
You got to be joking. And the Gold seal does matter.
The truth is they could settle this all ages ago by just releasing the records and photos of them, then it's over with.
But they don't and sealed up the records, stamped and all because there is concern he's not a US citizen.

G. Gordon Liddy yesterday made the ludicrous assertion that “you couldn't even register for the Little League” with a COLB.
Actually, it STATES on the certificate that “This copy serves as prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court proceeding.” That very certificate can be used to obtain a US Passport, get a business license, gun permit, etc. It would be accepted in an application for a FEDERAL SECURITY CLEARANCE. Not a picture of the original on file. Not some mysterious “long form.” THAT CERTIFICATE.

No, Sir (or Madam). The relevant law is not some obscure 18th-century book, it is the 14th Amendment and 8 U.S.C. § 1405. That section of the United States Code states, “A person born in Hawaii on or after April 30, 1900, is a citizen of the United States at birth.” There is not any requirement for citizenship that one's parents be citizens at the time of birth.

Obama's birth certificate wasn't specially sealed; nobody except officials of the State of Hawaii, and then only with clear need, is allowed to view the original of Hawaiian birth records. It is part of a general privacy law which applies to all Hawaiian birth records.
The Certificate of Live Birth Hawaii issued (signed and sealed, as it is) is legally admissible in all jurisdictions as evidence of one's birth and citizenship.

Maybe this is too complicated for you, but try to see my point. McCain
really wanted to be president, right? He had all the resources money could
buy to find out if Obama is not American, right? I know Obama is American,
because otherwise, McCain, who, remember, really wanted to be president,
would have exposed Obama, so McCain could be president without question.
Either that, or McCain could have proven that Obama is not American, but
really want to win. Do you see my point?
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 4:12 pm
No, it doesn't matter. Unlike many other countries your ancestors, other than your parents, do not have any effect on American citizenship and nationality. What makes Obama a citizen is that he was born in this country. The Fourteenth Amendment is very clear “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.” There are other people who are citizens of the United States from birth by law. John McCain, for example, is one of those people (although his case is unusual because he was not a citizen when he was born. He was about one-year old when the law was changed to say he was a citizen from birth.)
Today if someone is born in a foreign country with a mother who is an American citizen and a father who is not, they are a citizen from birth by law it the mother has resided in the US for a total of ten years, two of which were after her fourteenth birthday. When Obama was born, the law was the same except it required five years residence after attaining the age of fourteen. Unfortunately, Ann Dunham was only eighteen when she gave birth to her son so she hadn't resided anywhere for five years after turning fourteen. There is, however, a special provision of the law, both then and now, for children “born out of wedlock”. Since the president's parents marriage was not legal under Hawaiian law, it is possible this provision would apply to him. So even if the crazies are right and he was born in Kenya, he may still be a “natural born citizen”.

Nice… So you are impugning the reputation of a man by the actions of his mother prior to that man’s birth. Nice work.
Also, I think those pictures (whoever it is, and I don’t care if they were Bush’s mother either) are quite tastefully done. Get yourself an education and an appreciate of fine art and stop looking looking at the female body as something dirty.

This IS NOT A RACISM ISSUE
Believe it or not, the military is concerned because Obama he may have loyalties to outright communist interests or Banking families instead of America.
Here's how one of your OWN PEOPLE describes it, again we should behave as Americans concerned about the nation.
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2009/7/23/757034/…
Let's forget all the petty meaningless he said she said bullshit.
The left/right paradigm is meaningless. The law is clear. Either Obama is a US citizen with loyalties to that, or he's not.
The DMV records printout without any gold seal, with nothing official attached is definitely not it as it doesn't prove where he was born.
We DON'T know where he was born. I'm not saying he was born in Hawaii, Indonesia or Afghanistan. What I am saying is we do not know where…
They could have settled it ages ago by releasing records and showing photos. That's it. That's all it took. They didn't and now it's a fiasco.
He could be a NON US citizen this is what countless constitutionalists are saying & RP supporters who don't buy into the two party mafia war.
if he's a NON US Citizen he could be taking orders from “other” outside forces, not America, which should be of top concern to everybody. Period.
We need to know why obama has 16 social security numbers & need to know he's USA.

The fact is that you can't even get a copy of the original so-called “long form” birth certificate. This is the Hawaiian birth certificate, and the sign and seal make it official. But no amount of arguing will make these loons understand.

Drives me nuts that people do not understand what a Birth Certificate (or a Death Certificate for that matter) is.
The original documents regarding a Live Birth or a Death are always kept on record at the County Registrar's office. The records themselves NEVER leave the registrar's office, some are on computer only.
What people order and see is a “CERTIFICATION of a LIVE BIRTH” or a “BIRTH CERTIFICATE” which merely states that a “Birth has occurred and is on record with the County Registrars Office.” The County is merely CERTIFYING that a Live Birth is on Record!!!!!
These Birthers need to get a life, oh, they don't have one… sorry. Forgot. Trust me, nobody who actually works at a County Registrar's office believes this crap because they know better.

I'm going to Dispel the Slave Blood Myth, right [Now]
—————————–
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_medieva…
Chaos and invasion made the taking of slaves habitual throughout Europe in the early Middle Ages. St. Patrick, himself captured and sold as a slave, protested an attack that enslaved newly baptized Christians in his Letter to the Soldiers of Coroticus .
In the Viking era starting c. 793, the Norse raiders often captured and enslaved peoples they encountered. In the Nordic countries the slaves were called Thralls (Old Norse: Þræll).
Germanic laws provided for the enslavement of criminals, as when the Visigothic Code prescribed enslavement both for those who could not pay the financial penalty for their crime , and for those who were to be delivered up as slaves to their victims, often with their property.
In Carolingian Europe approximately 20% of the entire population consisted of slaves.
Note: Some people gave themselves to powerful landowners in order to receive protection or food; one Anglo-Saxon will has a land-owner freeing those slaves who had “given her their heads for food.” Anglo-Saxons continued and expanded their slave system, sometimes in league with Norse traders.
Big Note: About 10% of England’s Population Entered in the Domesday Book in 1086 were [Slaves]
Chattel slavery of English Christians was discontinued after 1066, when William of Normandy conquered England.
The slave trade in England was abolished in 1102.
The restoration of order as the early Middle Ages passed was accompanied by the transmutation of this state into serfdom, and after the earlier portions, slaves were seldom of the same country as their owner in Western Europe.

Obama has released his Certificate of Live Birth, a legal document which proves he was born in Hawaii. Hawiian law does not allow access to original birth records or the release of photographs of original records. What we have is the official proof (and ONLY official proof) of his birth in Hawaii, complete with an embossed seal (see the photos at factcheck.org) and a signature. It is admissible in all jurisdictions as proof of birth in Hawaii. He is therefore a citizen of the United States and of the state in which he resides. Period.

The birther movement is just the start of the Republicans putting into play the strategy that they followed during the Clinton administration. They were able to make enough noise about Whitewater that an investigation was started. By the time it was finished years later, they had gone through Whitewater, travelgate, and numerous other issues, until they finally caught hold with Monica-gate, which hadn't even happened when the investigation started. They were able to disgrace (admittedly with Clinton's own help) a successful Democratic president which allowed them enough of a foothold to keep the race close enough to cheat their way into power in 2000. All the Repubs want to do is open an investigation, which they can use to harrass and persecute Obama throughout his presidency. It worked once, and they are hoping it will work again. Unfortunately for them, the last time around they had a Republican congress to authorize the investigation. This time they have a Democratic congrees who is unlikely to do that.

They want to set up a concordat here, which was the reason for Reagan formally recognizing the sovereign state of Vatican City in 1984. The greatest traitor we ever had was Ronald Reagan.
The New World Order has been actively in play for decades, so if it took the election of Obama to wake you up to reality, I would imagine that you still have no idea whats actually going on, and your uninformed ranting only obfuscates the truth, Obama is breaking down those institutional power structures and aliances that apparently you are fighting to preserve.
The GOP has always be part of the NWO take-over, why else would the so-called free-market, free trade model have such a negative affect on the median incomes of American citizens over the last 25 years if it's purpose was to create a better quality of life for Americans, and please don't say they are trying to help growth in emarging markets, when they oppose healthcare for 47M American citizens.

Listen you racist imbeciles! How in the world do you think President Obama passed the highest and most stringent national scurity test in the nation? with a wink and a smile? In order to actually hold the office of the President of the United States of America, one must undergo and pass a very lengthy and stringent national security and personal identity test, this includes the submission of original documents, information on every family member, including nationality, place of birth, etc., finger prints, etc. Everythying submitted is verified and authenticated to death. The President of the United States holds the highest national security clearance of the nation, and one does not obtain that with a smile and a wink! THIS CERTAINLY INCLUDES PROOF OF HIS BIRTH, BIRTH PLACE AND PARENTAGE! WHICH IS AUTHENTICATED IN THE STRICTEST OF FORMS!
U.S. Senators are also required to pass a stringent national security check in order for them to receive the necessary national security clearance for them to do their job. When President Obama became U.S. Senator, he also had to undergo a national security check to be granted the appropriate national security clearance to perform his job as a U.S. Senator.
He has had a U.S. passport since he was a child. In order to obtain a U.S. passport, one must submit the original birth certificate to the State Department, where it is verified and authenticated.
Those of you who chose to deny any and all evidence and proof are just doing this because you don't like the fact that our President is not white. Get over it and start behaving like Americans! Denying the legitimately elected and sworn in President of the United States is as un-American as can be.

Go home. Drink your moonshine. Tell yourselves that you're better than blacks because that's the only way that you can feel like you have any power in the world.

“It’s crazy,” said Janice Okubo, director of communications for the Hawaii Department of Health. “I don’t think anything is ever going to satisfy them.”
Okubo, who said that she gets weekly questions from Obama ‘Birthers’ that are “more like threats,” explained that the certificate of live birth reproduced by Obama’s campaign should have debunked the conspiracy theories. “If you were born in Bali, for example,” Okubo explained, “you could get a certificate from the state of Hawaii saying you were in Bali. You could not get a certificate saying you were born in Honolulu. The state has to verify a fact like that for it to appear on the certificate. But it’s become very clear that it doesn’t matter what I say. The people who are questioning this bring up all these implausible scenarios. What if the physician lied? What if the state lied? It’s just become an urban legend at this point.”

Look, what is never emphasized in any of these so-called “birther” dismissals is the fact that Obama himself gives the evidence against his own eligibility on his own websites. He admits that he WAS a citizen at birth of Great Britain. Thus, he held dual citizenships at time of birth and THAT is what makes him ineligible, according to the Constitution, for POTUS. There has never been any President in the U.S. history who had dual citizenship or was not a child of two parents who were both citizens EXCEPT for Chester Arthur who knew he was ineligible and so had to forge fraudulent records of his birth which was later discovered in the aftermath of his term. So, even though people today are ignorant of what is demanded by the Founders in the Constitution, we see that our history shows that it has been well understood by those who did not lack good education in our country's real history. AND …. we are witnessing the results of just such a one today whom our founders had the forethought to plan against (due to their own experience of fighting against those with loyalties to other than the U.S.). And we are seeing one more loyal to other than his own country as he attempts to dismantle its very foundations and discredits before the eyes of the world.

No, idiot! the 14th Amendment clarified that the nationality of the parents was not the sole determining factor in the natinoality and citizenship of the child. If the child was born on U.S. soil, the child is a natural born U.S. citizen, even if the parents are not–as were the slaves–their children born on U.S. soil were automatically natural born U.S. citizens.

Listen you racist imbeciles! How in the world do you think President Obama passed the highest and most stringent national scurity test in the nation? with a wink and a smile?
Another misinformed comment. There is no such “test”. All that was required was that a national party – the Democratic one – to nominate him officially. No one accepted any responsibility for validating his eligibility. NO ONE!

Well, the State Department accepts it, since he traveled with a US Passport for YEARS! Where were you born? If a Certified Copy of your birth certificate is all we would have as proof of you being born where you were, then well, I guess you're in trouble too. We would need more proof.
Would 2 birth announcements in 2 different newspapers at the time work for you? Not enough proof, I suppose.
Amazing to me…this daftness and the fact that it's also coming from the mainstream now.

#1: It's against the law of the state of Hawaii to show the original. That may be because it contains private information that is protected by law, but it wouldn't make any difference. These people won't believe the Republican Governor of Hawaii that she has seen it and that it is authentic, nor will they believe the head of their health services who said the same after checking it out. If they released all of the personal information that is on his original birth certificate, it wouldn't do any good. These people are not interested in facts. If they had the name of the hospital and the name of the doctor and all of the other personal information found there, they would simply institute a vast investigation of all those details. Obama's step grandmother, who never saw him before he was in his twenties, misspoke through an interpreter and immediately corrected herself about where Obama was born. The birthers just took out the immediate correction and ran with the mistake. They would try to do the same with every person who's alive or has a relative or friend who's alive who worked at or near the hospital when Obama was born. That would draw some crazies who are looking for some fame and it would go on and on.
If the Obama administration chose to do anything, it could send some experts to look at it, but I doubt that it would do any good.
#2 No white President has ever been treated like this. It's very shabby.

Following the tortured logic of the birthers, Geo. Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison were not legitimate Presidents because the did not meet the birthers definition of “natural born citizen.” Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison were British citizens because they were in a British colony to parents who were British citizens. Thus, the 14th Amendment. Otherwise, at the founding of the USA, no one had the strict “natural born citizen” qualifications.

Why do I even bother — you are truly the racist dumbshit. Completely ignorant of the facts and constitutioal law of the country you live in. The founders included a clause in the Constitution which exempted the current citizens from the “natural born” requirement. Take 5 minutes and research it before you embarass your self and insult the logically thinking people visiting the site.
This is not a racist issue — the same people would be bringing these cases if McCain were pres. This is about clarification of the law. The president has provided no evidence that he meets the constitutional requirements for president. McCain's lawyer is mistaken is saying there is no evidence to the contrary — Obamas mother gave a sworn affidavit that she witnessed his birth in Kenya! Also, birth announcements are not sufficient proof to even play little league softball or attend public school, hold a job, etc. Long form BC would be a good start for evidence, although only SCOTUS can resolve the ambiguity of “natural born” as it applies to those born to at least 1 foreign national. Do some research. And the Keyes case will probably be heard on the merits in California soon… so thats why there's been a sudden media blitz to try to fend off the growing outrage.

Obama HAS. He was born in Hawaii and he has offered exactly what the State of Hawaii presents as it's certified birth certificate. They have a state law that protects their citizens privacy. They do NOT release or copy the original birth certificate. All Hawaiians get their passports with the form the state offers. The Senators and Representatives from Hawaii prove their identity with the state of Hawaii's forms. This is the official birth certificate of the state of Hawaii and Obama presented it ages ago! If you don't like it, you could try to get the state of Hawaii to change it's laws, but until then, this is the way it is.

If he passed the most stringent national security and personal identity check in the nation, in order to be granted the highest national security level in the nation, don't you think that during that lengthy process, somebody would have checked and authenticated his birth certificate, identity through finger printing, and every document they could find?

If you read the Constitution further, it provides another basis for those alive at the founding, namely Geo. Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, to be President. Obama does not meet that basis nor the natural born citizenship basis. The Law of Nations describes 3 types of citizenship: natural born, native born and naturalized. Natural born requires both his parents to be citizens. One was not. So, even if born in Hawaii, at best, he is native born and does not meet the Constitutional requirement ans there are doubts that he is even native born.

No person except a natural born Citizen, OR A CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES, AT THE TIME OF THE ADOPTION OF THIS CONSTITUTION, shall be eligible to the Office of President;
No fair leaving out the REST of the statement beyond the requirement of the NBC portion. That qualifies your so-called “ineligibles”. Leaving out the whole statement always seems to be the way to obfuscate the truth to the poor ignorant. Next time, all the definition please.

Nice biased article, David. Barry's never provided a “Certificate” of Live Birth. And again, the pro-barry b.s. artists attempt to blur the line between “citizen” and “natural born”. The 14th amendment has nothing to do with “natural born”.
Barry's most damaging secret may not be about citizenship or natural born status at all. There are potentially worse revelations for him than not being born where he claims. We don't know anything about Obama's past beyond what he's told us in his “memoir”, and he clearly has been proactive in keeping his birth, medical, and school records under wraps. You don't do so without a reason. And the breach of his passport records by an underling of John Brennan (an Obama security adviser) should be suspicious to everyone.
He acts like a man hiding something.
Why don't you write an article on the birth/vital records issuance practices in Hawaii, now and in the 60's, what a “Certification” of Live Birth is, when the electronic form was first put into use, the number of root documents it could potentially represent, the birth record amendment policies and procedures and how an amendment might reflect on what is displayed on a current “Certification” of Live Birth.
If you're going to be content to simply ridicule people for pursuing the issue, shouldn't you be ridiculing Obama as well for taking it seriously enough to pay Perkins Coie and other firms to battle these lawsuits? If Barry thought it was all as big a joke as you do, I'd imagine he'd release the sought after records and make light of it. So, to be consistent you should be calling Barry a “birther” too. He obviously takes the matter as seriously as those “crazies” you mock.

Free your mind OBOTS and quit spouting the Obama media lapdogs and look at the actual forensic evidence which clearly shows the document to be an incredibly sloppy forgery.

“Obamas mother gave a sworn affidavit that she witnessed his birth in Kenya”
Bullcrap. The supposed affidavit was by Obama's Step-Grandmother not his mother and when she said she witnessed the birth in Kenya it was because there was a mistranslation… the family during the affidavit corrected the record several times, but, of course, that's not the part the birthers latch on to… because you are idiots.
The State Department issued Obama a passport identifying him as a United States Citizen. And that was well before he was President so don't cop out on that.
SCOTUS has better things to do than to listen to Alan Keyes, who they will likely rule lacks standing in his lawsuit as well.

Okubo, who said that she gets weekly questions from Obama ‘Birthers’ that are “more like threats,” explained that the certificate of live birth reproduced by Obama’s campaign should have debunked the conspiracy theories. “If you were born in Bali, for example,” Okubo explained, “you could get a certificate from the state of Hawaii saying you were born in Bali. You could not get a certificate saying you were born in Honolulu. The state has to verify a fact like that for it to appear on the certificate. But it’s become very clear that it doesn’t matter what I say. The people who are questioning this bring up all these implausible scenarios. What if the physician lied? What if the state lied? It’s just become an urban legend at this point.”

Here you go moran-
Aloha,
Thank you for emailing Governor Linda Lingle's office. A recent article in WorldNetDaily.com (October 26, 2008) claiming that Hawai‘i Governor Linda Lingle sealed Sen. Barack Obama's birth certificate is false.
Under Hawai‘i's state law (Hawai‘i Revised Statutes §338-18), copies of vital records may only be released to those who have a tangible relationship to the person whose record is being sought. Neither the Governor's office, nor any other office in the State of Hawai'i, can provide information concerning birth certificates, or produce birth certificates, to anyone except those who are listed in the law governing vital statistics records.
Vital statistics records, such as birth certificates, are protected by strict confidentiality requirements. Specifically, pursuant to section 338-18, Hawai‘i Revised Statutes (HRS), the Department of Health, which maintains these records, may not allow the inspection of a birth certificate, or issue a certified copy of a birth certificate, or disclose any information contained in a birth certificate, unless it is satisfied that the applicant has a direct and tangible interest in the record:
(a) To protect the integrity of vital statistics records, to ensure their proper use, and to ensure the efficient and proper administration of the vital statistics system, it shall be unlawful for any person to permit inspection of, or to disclose information contained in vital statistics records, or to copy or issue a copy of all or part of any such record, except as authorized by this part or by rules adopted by the department of health.
(b) The department shall not permit inspection of public health statistics records, or issue a certified copy of any such record or part thereof, unless it is satisfied that the applicant has a direct and tangible interest in the record. The following persons shall be considered to have a direct and tangible interest in a public health statistics record:
(1) The registrant;
(2) The spouse of the registrant;
(3) A parent of the registrant;
(4) A descendant of the registrant;
(5) A person having a common ancestor with the registrant;
(6) A legal guardian of the registrant;
(7) A person or agency acting on behalf of the registrant;
(8) A personal representative of the registrant's estate;
(9) A person whose right to inspect or obtain a certified copy of the record is established by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction;
(10) Adoptive parents who have filed a petition for adoption and who need to determine the death of one or more of the prospective adopted child's natural or legal parents;
(11) A person who needs to determine the marital status of a former spouse in order to determine the payment of alimony;
(12) A person who needs to determine the death of a nonrelated co-owner of property purchased under a joint tenancy agreement; and
(13) A person who needs a death certificate for the determination of payments under a credit insurance policy.

Office of Governor Lingle

Why doesn’t the President dig one layer deeper and release the original or his birth certificate? Because it wouldn’t matter to the birthers. Legal documents, Republican governors, newspaper birth announcements (which come from the state Dept. of Health and not the parents btw) are all dismissed out of hand. Evidence is irrelevant. The real issue for birthers is that in their minds the President is “the other”, the outsider, someone who doesn’t belong to their identity group. It could be because he is half black, had a Muslim father, went to Harvard, lived in Indonesia, grew up in Hawaii or any of the other things about his life that some people can’t comprehend, much less relate to. This has nothing to do with facts or logic, so everyone can save their breath.

The rest of us sane people will be happy to see the Republican Party morph into the discredited Clown Party. What George W. Bush started, I hope the birthers finish it.

You don't make much sense there. Not sure what you're trying to say. “Prove” what to myself? I already know that the “Certification” Obama has posted is being misrepresented as something it is not, and is not being fully explained in what it can represent.
And, I'm not a “lazy old white man”. lol. Sorry to upend your worldview.

The birthers want to believe that Obama is not eligible to be President and twist the truth to their advantage because he's “different than us”, he's not eligible because he's “not American”. In other words they believe that he has a fatal flaw. These declarations are dog whistles for “he's black”. The racist, conspiracy whack-jobs are also upset that Barack Obama (a black man) won the election, and he did it by a huge margin.

I can't believe this man WHO WAS BORN IN KENYA!!! is president of the United States! This just drives me crazy! It makes me slap my face and jump up and down like those heterosexuals attending the cage match near the end of Bruno. G. Gordon Liddy, whose knowledge of current affairs knows no limits, helpfully pointed out that Obama's step grandmother SIGNED AN AFFIDAVIT stating he was born in Kenya. Case closed! He needs to be rousted out of office and Rush Limbaugh put in his place. Only then can we fix healthcare!

After the slaves where set free, many old white men needed their help with plantations and were upset over the freedom act. What did they do? They brought over Germans. The need persisted so after WWI and WWII many more Nazi prisoners captured by U.S. forces used them as your slaves on their plantations.
So what do you have now? You have 25% of Americans are German. Many at highest levels in state or country. This is just a fact. But you have to recognize the 'White Supremecy', love hitler and adore him still in fact growing………………….is stemming from this group of racist Americans. This group is part of who is running washington on the republican side, in fact ……recent talk of the 'Family' on “C” Street………..adores hitler and supports his ideals. Now is the time to see what 'Lazy old fat cat White Men” did to society”. They destroyed America, vote by vote. Look at Limbaugh, Bohner, Bachmann, …Liddy, Rove. Irish and British, not your country anymore. Sad, sad, sad thing for America becoming the New Germany.

Obama has repeatedly said he has in a box at home an original birth certificate (not the computer generated official certification).
That he won't show it, I think, reveals much about the man.
It is a strategy right out of “Rules for Radicals”, to inflame conspiracy theory and divide your opponents. He cares little or not at all for bringing people together, and sees political gain in division. He is the most partisan President in modern times.
I blame Obama for the “birthers”.
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 5:36 pm
This story of his birth has been around since he was a presidential candidate. Many lawsuits with different angles filed by different people and states made it to the Supreme Court. Some where filed by AG but all were dismissed as “lack of standing”. This is a simple question that deserve a simple answer. No president / candidate before had an issue of coming clean. Go figure.

Susan, I'm afraid you are an ignoramus. If you are comparing proof, the evidence overwhelmingly supports that he does not “MEET THE CONSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENTS”. (You say born in HI, but thats not the only issue.)
Re Born in HI: No original BC — experts have testified in court, however that the COLB online is a forgery.
Obamas Grandma testifies she witnessed his birth in Kenya — sworn affidavit — circumstantial, but very compelling.
Not only is the real EVIDENCE to prove this issue in Obama's hands, but he refuses to show it! What does that tell you?
Gov of HI says the have A bc on file, but refuse to tell us what it says or show it. It may say place of birth Timbuktu for all we know!
The issue is clearly in doubt, one way or the other. Those who believe blindly or ignore the constitional law of our nation, are the truly dangerous ones.
This case has NEVER been heard on the merits in a US court of law, but there is a good chance that will happen soon in CA — then, everyone can present their evidence and the Judge will likely subpoena the release of the original bc for scrutiny, then we can at least get that little elusive piece of info resolved.

“Obamas mother gave a sworn affidavit that she witnessed his birth in Kenya!”
Well if Obama's mother was there I bet she did witness her son's birth…but since his mother has never been to Kenya, my bet is that she did not witness it.,..because he was not born there. Moron…I will type slow….if Obama's mother had never been to Kenya..chances are HE WAS NOT BORN THERE!…sheesh.

And when did Bush reveal his birth certificate? What about Clinton…what date was that on? Carter? Can you advise? And can you advise where in your laws it says that all these presidents must email/post/telegram/carrier pigeon their birth certificates for all to see?
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 5:40 pm
It really doesn't matter where he was born. He himself has admitted on his own website/s that he was a dual citizenship at the time of his birth – also a citizen of Great Britain. That in itself disqualifies him for eligibility according to the Consitution's requirements. You may look at all of the precedent cases that define that fact. Of course,who cares these days about the country itself, those who fought for it and its beloved Constitution under which all these leaders have sworn to uphold and defend – against DOMESTIC enemies as well as foreign ones. God bless all of the loyal citizens who have given up their lives for the sake of these truths and freedoms that so many today flush away so easily to their own detriment.

It isn't what the birthers want to believe or what the obamabot wants. Don't need to go to racial comments and try to destroy each other. Nobody knows the truth until it is revealed. The truth is in the original Birth Certificate that Obama doesn't want anyone to see.

Well Johnny foreigner. If the military (rightly) has reason to beleive the commander in Chief of the armed forces has no legitimate authority under the US constitution, then it is their SWORN DUTY not to obey his orders. Furthermore, if he is found to be illegitimate for office, any treaties, laws, declarations of war, etc will be considered null. Additionally, our military men fighting will not enjoy the protections of the Geneva Convention in the event of capture, or armistice, etc. So, its kind of important that we're sure he has legal authority to act as POTUS.

I don't know about you, but I've lost a LOT of papers and documents since I've been in high school, and I'm a FEMALE. Teenage males tend to be a bit more careless.
But it may have been in his Grandmother's care, because when he was a teenager, he lived with her. So it is possible it's floating around in a box that might have been packed away since her passing, OR she may have misplaced and lost it many years ago.
As President of the United States, he really does have more important things to do right now other than searching around for an old paper birth certificate THAT WOULDN'T SATISFY THE SCEPTICS ANYWAY!

AstonKim –
Obama — and NUMEROUS others — have done exactly that. In Hawai'i you pay your $5 and get a Certified Copy of a “Certification of Live Birth” in which the recorder of vital statistics (or whatever his/her title is in Hawai'i) certifies that there is a Birth Certificate on file documenting the birth of the person listed on the date and place listed. You cannot get a copy of the ACTUAL birth certificate. Several officials in Honolulu have stated (maybe under oath?) that they have examined President Obama's actual birth certificate, that it is authentic and that ther Certification of Live Birth is legitimate and accurate.
What more do people want??? It seems some people will not be convinced unless Pres. Obama can come up with a time machine so they can to go back in time and actually observe Baby Boy Obama emerging from his mother's vagina.
This madness needs to stop.
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 5:45 pm
John Campbell bill to require the birth certificate for president candidates is a great idea. It would be this birth issue to rest in the future. AND, it would be a telltale sign if Obama DOESN”T seek reelection in 2012.

THe question is moot since they no longer occupy the Whitehouse, Its also a weak effort to divert the argument to a meaningless and irrelavant speculation, but I'll humor you speculate that they would have had nothing to hide, and release the original documents without question. If they likewise refused to do so, then I'd take the same position that its an outrage and demand the release of the info to the public, wouldn't you? Or do you just follow dictators and such, based on their pronouncements, rather than the rule of law?

Birthers, they just don't get it. They keep asking the same questions, that have been answered over and over again. Are they that stupid, or just really in some dense denial?
But given how stupid they are, facts aren't going to convince them of anything. They believe every unconfirmed, unsubstantiated rumor and lie (like the $800K figure that Obama supposedly spent on legal fees to keep his true identity a secret) without having one single shred of evidence to support their cause. Not one piece of evidence to support their silly fantasy. Put up or shut up, birthers. Really. Don't you realize how bat shit insane you appear to the rest of us?
Try, just for a second, to be rational about this little theory of yours.
It's kind of sad really, watching adults act like children who cannot accept reality.
But one thing is for sure, it's says so much more about them than it does about Obama any day of the week.
The birthers are like cult members now. No amount of sunshine is going to penetrate their dark, locked minds. They have come to their conclusions first, and now, however pathetic, they are trying to fit what they believe are facts around the conclusion.
But it's one giant, epic FAIL.
And the more they stay at it, the crazier they become. They get more emboldened as the evidence doesn't point in their favor.

No candidate other than John McCain and, from what I understand a couple more over 100 years ago, have had to even deal with these accusations.
Your issue that he is less forth coming is ludicrist. He's had to bend over backward to prove something that was certified by scores of Hawaiian officials, including the Governor of Hawaii (of the opposition party).
He was vetted by the Secret Service. He was granted classified to top clearance first as a Senator, then a President so he was vetted by the Dept. of Defense. Hawaii has certified him.
There is nothing that can be done at this point to convince you, not because he hasn't amply proven he's a citizen but because your hatred of him demands that you support any effort to depose him.

Unfortunately these folks are being linked to conservatives who really want nothing to do with the legitimacy issue, regardless it's outcome.
For those of you who think it's about race, pull your heads out of your —–s. I can't stand Obama and what he represents ideologically, but I couldn't care less about his race. If this is about race, why did the left make the same challenges about McCain?
For what it's worth it even if I had ironclad proof of his Kenyan birth, I'd drop it in the the shredder faster than you could say “don't just stand there… nationalize something.” Idiot Americans elected the guy, so we live with him. You could run Fidel Castro for President and he'd probably get 30% of the vote even though he's Cuban AND a communist. The idea of constitutional eligibility is lost on these people entirely. They like him and that's all that counts.

How about this? Text from the First Congress describing this requirement for a natural-born Citizen:
First Congress, Session II, March 26, 1790 Approved.
” And the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born citizens; Provided that the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose FATHERS have never been resident in the United States; “
“Resident” in this usage refers to someone who was in the process of naturalization. (becoming a citizen.)
Apparently the founders were Paternalists, believing that citizenship could only be conveyed by the father's lineage.
Since Obama's Father was in the process of Naturalizing to become an American Citizen, everything is okay, right ?
What's that you say ? He wasn't considered a resident under this Act of congress ? Well then, what is his son's citizenship status ?
I don't know either.

The entire situation is nothing more than a diversion from Obama's agenda.
The Republican Governor of Hawaii has reviewed the birth documents and has flatly said they are accurate and true. The hospital administrator concurs. The newspapers ran birth announcement in 1961.

Let them take it to court but I do not want to be in their shoes when everyone come and it is proven that President Obama is a citizen of the USA. How in the world did his Mother give birth to him in two different parts of the world on the same day. A nice Law suit would be nice for these so called Birther and throw Keyes in there also. That will stop it all. Every since President Obama got in there they have been trying to destroy him. But what goes around come back around. And I hope it destroy them.

Not a single GOP politician has come to Obama's defense. Why? Because they want the story to stay alive in hopes of undermining him. No other reason. They don't have any moral principles at all. And given they are the biggest sore loser crybabies on the planet, why would they try and help the man who helped sink their party to new lows?

Why is there different standards of transparency?
Certification of Live Birth is not the original. The original long form of birth certificate is wants being requested.
It is not a copy that's being requested. The sealed orignal is what is being asked for. It isn't good enough to say there is a person listed on the date and place listed by one official who have seen it personally. The issue warrants a group of experts to investigate this. This isn't a you and me. This is to verify the qualification for the most powerful position of the world.
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 6:01 pm
THE CERTIFICATE OF LIVE BIRTH HAS BEEN AVAILABLE FOR OVER A YEAR YOU MORON. What, should Obama mail each and every one of you mentally ill wantwits a copy?
Nice argument though, if we make fun of you idiots for filing the lawsuits that somehow Obama is equally culpable for fighting your pointless lawsuits? So by your logic since the lawsuits are baseless Obama should be obligated to accede to your demands?
yeah that makes sense. Unless you are sane.
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 6:02 pm
Here's another piece of logic I have trouble with. The state of Hawaii says they can't release Obama's birth certificate without his permission. What then is that thing that is supposed to look like a computer printout of a birth certificate which is all over the net ?
Obviously the state of Hawaii DID release it or they DIDN'T release it. Which is it ?

Don't be fooled by “evidence”
I am very upset that the media and other liberals in America are ignoring the obvious fact of how the “evidence” that the “rational” people are suggesting refutes the unavoidable TRUTH that we have a Kenyan as POTUS – Time travel! Obviously, Obama and his cronies have gone back in time and changed the official records in Hawaii and posted the advertisement in the Honalulu newpaper. What's more, I have been told by an expert in such matters that Obama's time machine is fueled by t-cells extracted from third-trimester aborted fetuses and blood from endangered species. I WANT MY COUNTRY BACK!! {spontaneous declaration of something irrelevant follows here}
I propose legislation to outlaw campaign time travel, but only on a going-forward basis for the next election campain, requiring all candidates to certify that they are incapable of rational thought and the discernment of truth from blithering idiocy to ensure that our govenrment is controlled by “real Americans!”
To paraphrase Stephen Colbert – it is well known that the truth has a liberal bias.

Don't try and use facts or simple logic with the birthers. They won't hear you. They've been consumed like cult members. Nothing will change their weak little minds, not one thing.
They keep asking the same dumb questions and the answers are out there, but they don't want to listen.
They ask, why doesn't he release his COLB?
The truth is Hawaii state law forbids it. Obama doesn't own it, the state of Hawaii does. They issued him a copy, like most states do, and that's what he used to get his drivers license, passport, etc.
And the birthers cannot fit this fact into their warped conspiracy, so they just hurdle right on past it as if they didn't see or hear it.

First point, because they don't know the truth, and wonder if he is in fact legitimate? I know I do.
Second point, Obama didn't do anything to them. He's an idiot that couldn't get elected dog catcher, and the proof is that only an idiot wouldn't realize it. The News/Entertainment media waged a massive propaganda war on the U.S. voters, and the stupid half of the country bought it. With Obama's KNOWN baggage, any reasonable person would have concluded that it was impossible for him to win the election. Only a fool would have tried.
Who could have known that the News/Entertainment media would have told so many lies and covered up so many ugly truths ? That his opponent INSISTED on being a Gentleman and treating him with undeserved respect ?
Yup, only a fool would have counted on all this.

“Natural born” means “natural born”. I doubt if, when the Constitution, everybody got birth certificates. But they didn't want someone coming over from England or wherever in their thirties and getting themselves elected, they wanted to make sure it was someone who was born here and grew up here.
Maybe bureaucrats screw up, but if there's a birth announcement in a Hawaiian newspaper, that convinces me that he was naturally born in Hawaii, and no one should be making a fuss!
I was born in Philadelphia, I've gotten a copy from Scranton, but I have no idea what the “original” looks like or where I'd find it. But the certified copy I got works fine!

Obama, like many Americans, requested a certified copy of his Birth Certificate from the state in which he was born, Hawaii.
Hawaii did what they always do under such circumstances — they issued him a Certification of Live Birth, with a seal and a signature stamp.
The Obama campaign scanned it and posted it; and then invited members of the media to examine it in person at the Chicago campaign headquarters. FactCheck was the only organization to take them up on the offer, and sent representatives to look at it and photograph it.
That is where the online images come from.

You're just bitter and upset that Obama won the election. The people saw the choices presented, and they voted for the better qualified candidate. You cannot go back and argue this anymore, the election has been decided.

Show me links that say the secret service vetted him. When he was a senator, he wasn't required to be a “natural born citizen”.
Have a group of legal document examiner review his long form birth certificate on file in Hawaii…that's all I ask….The one that he sealed aftering a day of stopping his race to visit his ill grandma. Convenient…

This hoopla over a non-issue (the birth certificate has been examined and verified by MANY MANY republican officials including the governor of Hawaii), is another example of how really out-of-touch republican neo-cons are.
While everyday people and others in Congress are concerned about jobs, housing, health care, terrorism, etc. those neo-con bozos continue to waste our time and money by continuing on with their ridiculous rants.
Until the republican party starts to realize that Rush Limbaugh and company are not good role models it will continue to lose members like a water pail full of holes.
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 6:15 pm
No it is not the original form, Hawaii does not release copies of the original form. However, it is a legal state document signed and sealed by a duly authorized representative of the Hawaii state government that there is a legimate, original form in there files. The Certification form is a legal document recognized by the state of Hawaii, and then by every other state in the union.
The only people on this planet that don't get this are the “birthers”, get a grip and a clue. They are a bunch of ignorant racists!

Obama has the copy which is the document that was posted online. I don't have my original either, as my state issued me a copy too. No one gets their original.
The information contained in the version he has has been verified, repeatedly by the director of Vital Statistics of the state of Hawaii.
So do you think he's covering for Obama too?

The story I read says birth announcements are automatically generated by reports filed with the Dept. of Health. All this proves is that someone filed a birth report with the Dept. of Health.
You have a very “low” standard of proof required for you to believe something.
If you can game the system by getting one of the Several forms of paper work that Hawaii accepts, (including births aboard a ship in international waters.) then the Birth announcement in the local paper is automatically generated.

Born in Hawaii = eligible for state issued BC = natural born citizen = eligible to be pres.

“Obama has the copy which is the document that was posted online. I don't have my original either, as my state issued me a copy too. No one gets their original.
The information contained in the version he has has been verified, repeatedly by the director of Vital Statistics of the state of Hawaii.”
First point, they may not get their original, but they get all the INFORMATION that is on there original. I just got my Son's birth certificate (so he could get a drivers license) and it contains ALL the information that the original had. Hell, it may even be a copy of the original. It has the Doctor's Signature on it and all !
Second point. It has not. They simply claim he has one. They give no details as to what is on it. If the Man was foreign born but adopted, his original birth certificate would not be permitted to be seen. The NEW one which he would be issued would demonstrate that a man who was not his father was his father. I know this because this happened to me. I am adopted. My real father's name is NOT on my birth certificate.
I KNOW my official birth certificate will yield false information. Why is it unreasonable to scrutinize a high officials birth with these sorts of legal technicalities in mind ?

So your expert is some person who will not reveal his identity, who has never seen the document but has come to the conclusion that it's a fake?
Wow, that sure sounds compelling and convincing to me. Game over, Obama. You might as well pack up and leave now, because Dr Polaroid has the goods on you.
Not even Fox News will have this person on, what does that tell you about his credibility?

Exactly, it was so obvious in 1961 this black baby with a muslim name was a shoe in for the presidency, his Mom had to fly to Hawaii and bribe the department of health to issue this fake COLB. Then the birth announcements were generated automatically.
Then all they had to do was sit back and wait 40 years for him to get elected and force us all to have health care.
Why cant the libs see the obvious?

The governor sealed it from release one day after Obama visited his ill grandma in Oct 2008.
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 6:25 pm
I see. Well, maybe someone with a high standard of proof can explain how a young mother gave birth in Kenya and gamed the system by getting the paperwork to Honolulu so that the birth announcement would be published within a few days of the birth — in such a way that no one would know it was transmitted from overseas.
In 1961.
Really, let's some of the evidence that meets your high standards!

I think it's a racial thing. You have these fat, wealthy white men of the Republican party, who are incredibly distressed that an African-American is in office. So they will l try to discredit him any way possible. How do we know W was a natural born citizen? he never showed his birth certificate to anyone. And besides, factcheck.org was there, in person and verified the legitimacy of his citizenship. So all you knuckleheads can gt back to listening to Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity now, and come up with another mode of attack…LOL

Pacific Northwest genius! I do research for a living and I have looked at the forensic evidence and for those who have not surrendered their minds to Big Brother it is clear the document is a fraud!!
Do your own research OBOTS!!! If you would read the
articles it's real easy to Google for additional
information. Your not really interested in the evidence
are you? You just want to discredit the author so you
don't have to admit you were duped by the usurper in the
White House. Even if the authors had no more than a
kindergarten education the photographic evidence shown
makes it clear the document is fraudulent. Now go back

While we're on the subject of the peculiarities surrounding Obama's birth, how many of you people out there know that there are Naked Pictures of Obama's mother on the internet ?
No joke. I mean True, authentic pictures of Stanley Ann Dunham, Naked, and posing for the camera.
Don't believe me ? Got to google and type in Obamas Naughty Mama. You will find a link to a story that shows 3 naked pictures of the Presidents mother.
Compare them to OTHER pictures of Stanley Ann Dunham on the internet. Notice that the upper incisor that is askew in pictures of Stanley Ann Dunham is Also askew in the pictures of the Naked woman.
You can argue that the woman is a look alike, but a look alike with the same bad tooth ?
Not bloody likely.

No it has not!! That's Obama's lapdog media lie.
Dr. Alvin Onaka, the Hawaii State Registrar and Head of the Office of Health Status Monitoring (OSHM), of which Vital Records is a part actually said “”Absolutely not. No one in our office confirmed it.”
Again, more deflection from an OBOT. More refusal to examine the forensic evidence that Obama's COLB is a “sloppy forgery”.

It isn't a left / right issue when someone potentially falsify his records. Both party should do what's right and force Obama to provide original proof.

Maybe McCain's investigators did not get their facts correct or are were just lousy investigators. He did not win, did not even try to win; all his wind had gone with the years. He was duped into following the in crowd to poverty.
Maybe you should retry your facts with some common sense and tally the lies that our “POTUS” has endeavoured us with since 2007.

Well put. Let's not split hairs. “Birthers” are just thinly-veiled Racist Bigots, and should be called out as such.
We had to put up for 8 years with a president who didn't win either election fairly – rampant voter fraud in Florida in 2000 put him in office. By all counts, even the under the most conservative-friendly methods, Gore won Florida.
But we liberals shut up, let the voter fraud go unpunished. Don't give the appearance of sour grapes, we were told.
Now that the shoe is on the other foot, even though this President won so decisively, they are choosing to make up treasonous reasons not to acknowledge him as our Commander-in-Chief.
Hypocrites, bigots, racists… That is who the Birther Movement is.

Obama WTF defines “DOCUMENTED LIE ” as :
1) a statement by one or more reliable news agencies or credible authorities citing supporting verifiable facts which rebut a reported statement by Obama.
2) observable video/transcript contradictions
3) the omission of an important fact the exclusion of which defies common sense unless the intent is to deceive
This therefore EXCLUDES unintentional gaffes eg the Auschwitz Memorial Day blip; the 57 States etc which can be found at New Gaffe City
This therefore also excludes Flip Flops unless
a) Obama is seen to be holding multiple positions depending on the audience, eg The Jerusalem flip flop…where his position was altered with 18 hours, talking to different audiences.
or b) Obama lies about holding a different position e.g denying he favored gun control
Credit to each of the following news outlets who are some of the most cited in the List of Documented Lies:
1. Annenberg Factcheck.org; at U Penn
2. At the St Petersberg Times; http://www.politifact.com
3. Washington Post Fact Checker …Michael Dobbs
4. Top of the Ticket Blog at the LA Times;
5. Political Punch at ABC News.com.
6. Dozens of other major news orgs are quoted to provide support for one or more lies

Of course, all previous president has no issue to show their birth certificate, medical, and college records. Even Sotomayer showed all her records…. why the discrepancy?… .. I ain't white but my own research shows that Obama isn't who he said he is. People don't know who they elected because he is very good at deflection and is very eloquent.

Please, show us exactly who the “liscensed professional document examiners” you refer to are.
I know you can't do that, of course, bcause they don't exist outside your fevered brain.
Give it up, loser. You have NO credibility – there is NO controversy, outside for the question of how many genuinely certified birther nuts there are running around, playing with their teabags.
Look, I am sympathetic to your pain. You're a terminally sore loser who refuses to admit that you had your ass kicked. You're a blatant racist who has had your ass kicked by a man of color. This must be a frustrating time for you.
But just because you are a racist loser who has had his ass kicked does not mean we're going for a ride with you to Crazy Town.
Why don't you take your teabags – and go away.

2 when the state of hawaii said they have a bc, what does that prove? you act like it proves something. it proves nothing, morons. the birth cert they have is where the real info is. THAT'S WHY WE WANT TO SEE IT! CAPICHE?
3 the ads in the honolulu newpapers were put there by the state, not by obama's family! this is what the hospitals say. at that time, the info came from the gov't. it's not a contemporaneous anything of substance. jeesh
4 did you ever think that the constitution using citizen in one place and natural born citizen in another place JUST MIGHT mean that they are two different things? holy cow!
5 why did they do an exhaustive research on mccain in the senate and leave all this on obama untouched?

Hey OBOTS, all we're asking you to do is think a little. Use your minds. Nobody (and I mean NOBODY) is elected president without the help of some very powerful people. These people have the ability to warp history so it matches up to their desires.
Take George W Bush. He was a draft dodger who didn't even finish his stint in the National Guard because he was taking cocaine and couldn't pass a physical. The man was a coward who spit on the people who fought for this country. But that didn't matter. Powerful people wanted him to be president so they changed the records to it looked like Bush didn't quit the National Guard because he was a crackhead.
Same with Obama. These same powerful people want Obama to be President the same way they wanted Bush to be President. So they changed the records for Obama like they did for Bush. Now all of a sudden Obama was born in the USA.
Bush is a crackhead, draft dodging coward and Obama was born in Kenya. That's what the records say. The question is can you see it.

How sad for you. Such anger! Do you think for one minute that the FBI hasn't looked into this? Obama has a top secret clearance! John McCain's campaign investigated this last year and found that the certificate of birth was valid. They dropped the issue as it is not an issue.
And by the way, Obama's mommy was a citizen, thus he is a citizen no matter where he was born.

Well, we wouldn’t expect you and your kindred to actually get a quote right..as it’s much more convenient to “quote” those who purport to “quote” what was supposedly “said”, instead! Yet, these “quotes” are actually not only misquoted, but misquoted on purpose, in order to skew the truth and gin up the mentally lazy ignorati to a drooling, fevered pitch! For example, among the rest of the faultily repeated garbage you mentioned, Obama never said this was “no longer a Christian nation”..not that it ever was, at that! But, that discussion aside, that alleged “quote” is still NOT what he said! You accuse others of not getting their facts straight, but dollars to donuts, you and your kind have never even watched, listened to or read..in their entirety..in the original..the very speeches you purport to “quote” from! Such ignorance is inexcuseable..but keep up the lawsuits, by all means. You just waste your own money and make yourselves all seem even more ridiculous than we already thought you were..if that were possible!

Good grief – all you do is repeat and repeate and repeat, each time promising “FOR THE LAST TIME!” but always, it's another lie. After posting the same rant ten times you've taken to adding extra lines just to make it eat up more screen time. You are truly a disturbed and pathetic individual.
Even more laughable is your claim that “I do research for a living and I have looked at the forensic evidence”. As an actual researcher with a job and publications and everything, I can absolutely spot a lunatic who couldn't get within fifty yards of a scientific journal without a battering ram. And you're one. Plus, the only forensic evidence you've seen is a low-res internet image of a scanned document – and based on that, you're claiming that litereally THOUSANDS of intelligent adults are part of a bizarre treasonous conspiracy to put someone in the white house who you don't like.

Dead wrong. No one who is licensed has said those documents are forged. Only people who refuse to identity themselves because they acutally have no standing claim it to be a forgery. Well real people who have looked at the photos will tell you the claims of being fraudelent are due to image artificats due to monitor resolution and the scanner. Hence why other photos show the seal, signature and don't show artifacts that would make an idiot claim a forgery has taken place.
The Goverment of Hawaii has said the birth certificate is real. People who went to view it say it is real.
“For starters, why would
the COLB issued in 2007 have the border only found on
the 2008 COLB form?”
For starters why do only idiots believe this claim? Do you even know what a 2007 and 2008 COLB form issued by a laserprinter in Hawaii look like?

Oh, I get it. Because the incompetent Hillary Clinton staffers couldn't find anything, it must not be there !
Same goes for McCain and his staffers. We all see what brilliant geniuses they were in retrospect.
The last election only proved one thing. The Power of the People of New York is far greater than that of any other state, with California being a close second.
All of your information is filtered through the employees of a city that voted 79% for Barack Obama. They are ALL UNION members and they are all Liberal Democrats.

1) The COLB says Obama was born in Honolulu. COLBs for foreign-born citizens state the country/city they were born in.
3) The fact that the ads were put their by the state is utterly compelling. Are you suggesting the state lied in 1961?
5) McCain was born outside of the United States, in the Panama Canal Zone. That's why it was an issue.

1 – Umm, what? Where no earth did you come up with that one? This is what happens when stupid people rely on talk radio as their source of information.
2 – It proves that the person in charge of the Vital Statistics and Records for the state of Hawaii has verified and seen the original that you idiots keep barking about. He has seen it and confirmed the information contained in both documents is the same. Just because you want to see it, then fly over to Hawaii and demand to see it yourself. I would imagine they would escort you from the building pretty quick.
3 – Now this is when you know how dumb the birthers really are. If the state of Hawaii gave the birth announcement to the paper, doesn't that give it more credibility than if a family member did it? Or unless you think that the state of Hawaii had advanced knowledge in 1961 that this one child would grow up to be president someday, so they were covering for him in advance.
4 – Ann Durham was a US citizen because she was born in the USA.
5 – Duh, because they found nothing! Don't you get it? If they had found something that they thought they could use against Obama to defeat him for the presidency don't you think they would have used it?

It continues to amaze me that in this debate the media
and the OBOTS continue to ignore and refuse to examines
the evidence of fraud as determined by several licensed
document examiners who regularly are used by the FBI to
examine forged documents. Free your mind OBOTS and quit
spouting the Obama media lapdogs and look at the actual

an incredibly sloppy forgery. For starters, why would

the 2008 COLB form? DUH!!!!! . FOR THE LAST TIME! LOOK
AT THE FORENSIC EVIDENCE!!! UNFORTUNATELY MANY OBOTS

You know you've lost the argument when all you can do is post crap like this, right?
So what does this have to do with the birth certificate story? Nothing, it just shows how bankrupt and disgraceful you really are.
This doesn't prove anything, other than you are a sore loser and an idiot.

Barack's Father was ALREADY MARRIED to a woman in Kenya. That makes any marriage to Stanley Ann Dunham, illegal bigamy, and therefore null and void, which makes Barack Obama a certified illegitimate child, otherwise known as a bastard.
His mother is a slut, and he is a bastard. I mean REALLY !
Aren't you glad the media notified you about all of this BEFORE the election ?

Actually the burden of proof lies on the Birthers.

What good is someone claiming something to always be, and you have no evidence to back things up with facts or physical evidence such as actual documentation, etc. Just because the Birthers keep saying and repeating their lunacy a thousand times doesn't make it so.

Sure, the hard copy of the COLB is admissible as evidence. But I’d be less suspicious of it being “conclusive evidence” if it were actually ADMITTED as evidence in court. Why has that never happened? What exactly is that document’s chain of custody, anyway? How did Daily Kos and Factcheck get it, for example? Where is it now?
Y’know what else would be conclusive evidence? A certified copy of the original long-form birth certificate! Oh sorry, it was discarded when Hawaii went paperless. Or, wait, no, it was witnessed as genuine by Hawaii’s Director of Health and sealed by order of the Governor. Which is it? I would find CONSISTENT “official statements” more convincing.

Thank you for your unwavering devotion to this idiotic issue despite the mountain of contradictory facts thrown in your face every day. Thank you for attacking the moderates and thinking, rational people in your party, and for driving them to run away from your party, screaming in horror, at lightning speed. Thank you for being so completely delusional that you refuse to acknowledge that President Obama is sitting in the White House running the Unites States. Thank you for ignoring all the real issues going on in the USA right now. Thank you.
Please do keep all this insanity going until we have successfully passed health care reform, the energy bill, education reform, and have successfully brought a case challenging bans on gay marriage to the Supreme Court. Please stay the course. It may be difficult, but you can do it! Please keep this up at least through 2010. We really appreciate you embarrassing and alienating decent republican candidates and voters, inserting a huge wedge in your party, keeping your money and focus on this issue while ignoring the mid-term elections altogether.

The fact remains that Obama's mother was a U.S. citizen, no matter where he was born. If she is a U.S. citizen, then he is also a “natural born” U.S. citizen. Jeez. Go back up on the roof people and add another layer of tin foil to your hats. I think all that's coming through now is static.

There are couple things that happen:
1. Wingnuts make claims and file lawsuits
2. Elected leaders of wingnuts, who should do the right thing because they know the truth, do not distance themselves away from the wingnuts fueling more wingnuttery.
3. Media bemoan the wingnuttery on primetime, giving rise to more wingnuttery.
What needs to happen is
1. Lawsuits dismissed with heavy fines for wasting valuable court times
2. Media skewering the elected leaders who encourage this nonsense by deliberately keeping quiet hoping to stoke the flames more. Ridicule them publicly often until they stop supporting the wingnuts.

It is, and always has been, my understanding that a “Natural-Born Citizen” must have BOTH parents as American Citizens. One doesn't count.
Earlier I posted an excerpt from the First Congress, Session II, March 26, 1790, which stated that the father HAD to be an American citizen, regardless of what the mother was.

“A survey of the lawsuits filed against Obama reveals a reliance on widely debunked rumors, bogus stories sourced back to web sites, affidavits from “experts” who refuse to provide credentials or even their real names, and frequent and blatant misunderstandings of basic constitutional law. The dismissal of “birther” lawsuits has allowed conspiracy theorists to believe that the information in those suits is accurate–a belief that manifests itself in the emails, phone calls, and town hall meeting rants that have pushed the theories into the mainstream media and the halls of Congress.” – David Weigel

You rely to heavily on the competence of Government Officials. Do you KNOW of any project they ever did competently ? How did that 9 trillion dollar war on poverty work out ?
Apparently, all you have to do to run for office is attest that you are an American Citizen. It only requires acceptance by a state official to get your foot in the door, thereafter everyone assumes it's valid.
The requirements for running for any office EXCEPT the Presidency are that you be an American Citizen. Obama is clearly that, though whether he is in fact considered to be a “Natural-Born Citizen” has in fact not yet been demonstrated, and wasn't required until he decided to run for President. Who's duty is it to check his credentials ?
The State Election board ? The State Attorney General ? Of Every State ?
Illinois certified him. The other states merely accepted it is valid through the courtesy of reciprocity.

Then come back here and post proof that Obama is spending ANY sum of money to fight this. David Weigel's own articles explain that the cases are all tossed out as frivolous or lacking standing. That means President Obama doesn't have to do anything to defend the suits.
It would be interesting to know what YOUR middle school transcript was.
And, Florida Christian alert — “that would end it all right there” — can you work that line into a new post for us, Florida?

Opinions of a columnist. I would be interested in a JUDGE'S opinion. Too bad we can't get one. Apparently ordinary Natural-born American citizens aren't allowed to question the credentials of our leader. We don't have standing.
Fortunately, Members of the Armed forces do, and it appears that there are several willing to go to court to try and get the court to rule on Obama's Legal status as a “Natural-Born Citizen.”

Unfortunately, Potter's so-called investigation only serves to highlight already unanswered questions about 0bama's place of birth.
Potter said “To the extent that we could,..” meaning he relied on the word of 0bama and his supporters that he was born in Hawai'i but Potter never saw 0bama's OFFICIAL long form “Birth Certificate” with his own eyes. So in a court of law Potter's opinion means squat.
The Certificate of Live Birth (COLB) printed on June 6, 2007 merely refers to the probable existence of an ORIGINAL long form Birth Certificate. During a Lou Dobbs exchange on the topic recent information came to light that 0bama's ORIGINAL long form Birth Certificate was DISCARDED eight (8) years ago when Hawai'i went electronic. So, any Hawai'ian official claiming to have seen the Birth Certificate or has it locked away safely in their office or have handled it are either lying or they are lying.
Furthermore, if 0bama obtained the Certificate of Live Birth on June 6, 2007 then what Official document did he use to obtain an Illinois driver's license and a US passport to travel abroad when a Birth Certificate, as opposed to a COLB, is required to obtain both?
Rep John Campbell is going about this the right way with the so-called “Birther Bill”. A resolution requiring nominees present an OFFICIAL long form “Birth Certificate” is the only way to legally and OFFICIALLY get to the bottom of this controversy.
“In questions of power, then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.”

You have to wonder why BHO supporters are just so darn eager to sweep all of this under the rug. They're really going full court press on this, aren't they? An endless parade of sockpuppets from the HuffPost is filling the comments with content-free garbage. If there's nothing to this story, why are they going all-out to smear and lie? Are they afraid of something?
If anyone wants to do something about this, simply tell the truth in as many forums – online and offline – as you can. Avoid obscure theories or things you can't prove. Unless you can definitively prove that BHO was born in Kenya, don't say it.
Just concentrate on the facts of the matter, and use that to discredit hacks like Weigel but more importantly to discredit the MSM. For the facts of this matter – no speculation, no wild theories – see my exhaustive coverage of this issue. Send that link to your friends and use it as a guide to show how MSM reporters are lying. Let's get the truth out there and have an impact on the careers of those who've lied about this.

We wanted it verified BEFORE the election. Every legal maneuver was used to block confirmation, and the media refused to even notify the American people that it was a concern.
The Name “Birthers” is a derogatory term which is applied to people who want proof of “Natural Born Citizen” status by people who hate them anyway. It is intended to malign these people in the manner that Polish jokes spread by the Nazis did during world war II.
It's is effectively, Enemy propaganda by Modern Nazional Sozialists.

Natural-Born is Nationality from Natural Law. It is determined by the father at birth, from which all rights of birth and inheritance flow. Barack Obama’s father was a Kenyan British colonial. Read Vatttel’s Law of Nations.
Natural-Born Citizen, A person born within the jurisdiction of a national government.
Black’s Law Dictionary, 17th Ed. (1999)
Naturalized-Citizen, A foreign born [or born of foreign parentage] who attains citizenship by law. Black’s, 17th Ed (1999)
The legislative definition of “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” was defined as “not owing allegiance to any other.” In 1866, Sec. 1992 of U.S. Revised Statutes read: “All persons born in the United States and NOT SUBJECT to any foreign power, excluding Indians not taxed, are declared to be citizens of the United States.”
Rep. Bingham, commenting on Section 1992, said it means “every human being born within the jurisdiction of the United States of parentS (plural) NOT OWING allegiance to any foreign sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself, a natural born citizen”.
Senator Lyman Trumbull, Chairman of the Judiciary Committee when the 14th Amendment was written said,
“… ‘all persons born in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens’… that means ‘subject to the complete jurisdiction thereof’.’ What do we mean by ‘complete jurisdiction thereof’? NOT OWING allegiance to anybody else. That is what it means.”
Emerich de Vattel was a historic writer on the law, from whom the framers drew their understanding. Following is from his Law of Nations.
§ 212. Citizens and natives.
The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of PARENTS who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights. (NOTE THE PLURAL- TWO PARENTS who are citizens.)
Statutes covering foreign birth, or birth to a foreigner, are Naturalization laws as they provide for the revocation of that alien nationality. Statutes cannot create or redefine Natural-Born, an immutable condition occurring from two U.S. citizen parents. http://paralegalnm.wordpress.com/2009/02/27/barack-hussein-obama-a-natural-born-subject-of-great-britain/

Barry shouldn't need to spend $10 or $20 for a new one when he's already presented his original birth certificate twice in two years, one to the U.S. State Department's liking and the second for factcheck.org to see and examine in person in Hawaii which checked out legitimate people. This is just an attempt by racist goons who still can't get over the fact a black man is President of the United States. This is an attempt to spew all their years of hate and venom at a man who's clearly more an American citizen than these loons are.

Uh, wow, do you really not know that what he provided WAS the “official” copy? Not the Right-wingnut “official” copy, of course – there is no such thing. But the real world “official” copy – that has been provided AND verified – again, not verified by the right-wingnutosphere, it was verified in the real world.
Why should he do it again for a bunch of conspiracy nuts? He's already done everything required of him, and now, he's just a tad busy. Why should he do anything more to give credence to idiots who won't believe it anyway? And why in the world would you think it would end with that?
What, in the behavior of the birthers, would lead you to think they would suddenly give up and go away when presented with exactly the same facts already available?
These are people who think Obama was born in Kenya – during the Mau Mau rebellion, by the way, a time when it would have been life-threatening for Obama's mother to even be in Kenya, let alone have a mixed-race baby there, then he was snuck out of Kenya, then snuck into the US, where citizenship papers and newspaper articles were forged.
Then he was taken to Indonesia, where as a 5 or 6 yr old, he renounced his US citizenship and became a practicing Muslim, which he hid by pretending to be a Christian for a couple of decades. This is what these whack-jobs believe.
I know if I wanted to sneak into the White House, that's how I would do it.
And you really think providing any kind of form now would make any difference to the people willing to believe such irrational nonsense?

Yes, most certainly, it's all been one big conspiracy since he's been BORN! Thousands and thousands of people the world over have been giving him a pass and covering up for him since his mother (a U.S. citizen, that itself making him a “natural born” U.S. citizen) gave birth to him, just waiting for him to become U.S. President — since that is sooo easy to achieve — so they could launch their evil plan.

You're like toddlers, thinking if you close your eyes and pretend not to see something, it doesn't exist. So you stomp your little feet and throw your little tantrums and demand to see proof – and then refuse to open your eyes and see what's in front of you.
Of course, you'd have to admit you were wrong then, and we all know that isn't going to happen.
And that really is what it's all about – the lengths you guys will go to, the lies you will tell, the claims you will make – all so you don't have to admit you were wrong.

Birthers…I want to thank you.
A heartfelt thank for your tremendous, ongoing efforts to make republicans look like a bunch of know-nothing, racist nutcases. Thank you for your unwavering devotion to this idiotic issue despite the mountain of contradictory facts thrown in your face every day. Thank you for attacking the moderates and thinking, rational people in your party, and for driving them to run away from your party, screaming in horror, at lightning speed. Thank you for being so completely delusional that you refuse to acknowledge that President Obama is sitting in the White House running the United States. Thank you for ignoring all the real issues going on in the USA right now. Thank you.
Please do keep all this insanity going until we have successfully passed health care reform, the energy bill, education reform, and have successfully brought a case challenging bans on gay marriage to the Supreme Court. Please stay the course. It may be difficult, but you can do it! Please keep this up at least through 2010. We really appreciate you embarrassing and alienating decent republican candidates and voters, inserting a huge wedge in your party, keeping your money and focus on this issue while ignoring the mid-term elections altogether. Thank you. Thank you.
We plan to do so much in the coming months, and then we plan to gain more House and Senate seats and expand our complete control of the entire government in 2010! Your help in this endeavor is very much appreciated.
Thank you birthers, thank you.
Maybe you all really ARE true patriots after all?
Thank you for helping us take the country back.
Please find a republican candidate's town hall meeting near you and raise this issue LOUDLY. I suggest then leading a rousing rendition of the Battle Hymn of the Republic when you do not get the answer you want!
Thank you.

Hmmm, why would that be? I'm going to suggest that maybe President Obama is just a little bit too busy to come to your doorstep and physically hand it to you. Do you think that might have anything to do with it?
BTW, would you have asked the same thing of McCain if he'd been elected? You realize he was born in the Panama Canal Zone, right? But his parents were U.S. citizens, therefore, he is too. Same with Obama. His mother was a U.S. citizen, so no matter WHERE he was born he is a “natural born” U.S. citizen as well. Get it?

“The world is round not flat.” –MikeB
What evidence do you have to prove that the world is round not flat?
I'm talking legit evidence. Dont tell me about any of the obvious fakes that have been discussed and shredded by my online newsletter already.
It seems like such a simple request. Just back up what your saying, dude. ANY map that has a certificate (not certification) of authenticity should be able to prove your point, and then this whole thing will be laid to rest.
If you dont want to admit your wrong just say it libtard. Just say your wrong and this whole thing goes away.

Evidence :
Most Americans believe the world isn't flat. Just a small group of people believe that the earth is flat.
Astronauts and cosmonauts has seen the earth and state that the world isn't flat.
We have satellites orbiting the planet and their data says the world isn't flat.
Go to any main stream news source and it will state the world isn't flat.
Sailors at some point would fall off the flat surface.

2 – The moon landing was faked. Prove that it wasn't. Without using faked proof. I don't trust cosmonauts, they're commie fascist socialist marxist leftist rightist upist downists.
3 – You don't effing know what our satellites say unless you can read encrypted spy satellite code, libtard. We don't trust dumbocrats with national security.
4 – Main stream media is a libtard sewer.
5 – They'd have to go off the EDGE, Obamaphile. Who's dumb enough to sail off the edge? Sailors, like my grandfather and greatgrandfather who both served three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan AND Gettysburg, know how to steer a ship. Unlike you, libtard.

My grandmother says “those who have nothing to hide, hide nothing.”
Obama hides a lot. He could have put this whole issue to rest with $12 to obtain a copy of his long form vault birth certificate. But he hasn't. Instead he's spent more than a million in legal fees to keep it hidden. Why? Even the most liberal moonbat must somewhere deep inside find that odd and a little disturbing. He even wrote in one of his books about himself that he found his birth certificate tucked in a book in the attic – so why doesn't he go get that one and show it? The man is hiding too much about himself!
There is NOTHING racist about asking someone holding the highest office in America to prove they are in fact legally eligible to hold said office. Those screaming “racist!” are proving themselves incapable of holding any real debate or willingness to consider the possibility that their kook-aid drinking has blinded them the fact that they may have been duped by a man who is doing his very best to destroy America. Open your eyes, obots, and really listen to what your dear leader says and does. He's a race baiter and you are all following in his footsteps each time you accuse someone of being racist for merely requesting the man prove he is a natural born citizen, or for disagreeing with his policies. Do you ever ask yourself how your accusations of racism make sense in arguments like this? Pray tell, kool-aid drinkers, exactly what race is socialist? What race is the intent to raise taxes on hard working citizens to pay for pork? Come on, you must have an answer since you're so quick to accuse others of racism for daring to disagree or question your dear leader… so explain it.
Are Americans not permitted to disagree with Obama or question him because he's *gasp* half black? Does the color of his skin mean we must all support all his policies, ideas and full agenda, no matter how damaging to the country or boneheaded they may be? Isn't screaming racist at those who exercise their rights to free speech and personal choice a bit racist on your part? Oh, that's right, liberals only believe in free speech if it is speech they agree with, otherwise they consider it racist and treasonist. What a bunch of hypocrites you liberals have become.
If you hate this country so much you chose to turn a blind eye to the damage being done by the growth of the government, if you want some suit in Washington telling you what you can and can't eat, if your mommy can have that life-saving surgery or not because of her age and value to the great society, then please do those of us who believe in the Constitution and what America stands for, who believe in personal responsibility and civility and law, and please leave. There are plenty of countries out there who would love to embrace whiny brats who stamp their feet and cry racism whenever they don't get their way, who want the government to take care of them from cradle to grave and take away all personal responsibility and choice… Go, find happiness and try to create your liberal utopia elsewhere, and when it fails, because socialism always does, don't come crying to those who called racist for asking the POTUS to show a valid long form birth certificate and who are actually paying attention to what the man does and says.

NO ONE has their original birth certificate. The original is filed with the state as part of their original records. What you can obtain is a copy or a document that contains the same information, which is stamped or embossed with something that makes it an authentic, verified “copy.” I have the thermofaxed copy of my original birth certificate from 1948 which was given to my parents after my birth. If I were to contact the city of my birth now to ask for a copy of my birth certificate, I would get something that looks nothing like the thermofaxed copy that I have in my files, but it could be used anywhere as proof of my birth. I know this because I have had to obtain a copy of my birth certificate a few times in the past 30 years and the document I received was in no way as detailed as the thermofaxed document. It did, however, contain all the information necessary to obtain a passport.

You people are thick in the head. You do know that he can't get his long form from Hawaii anymore. It's gone. No longer exists. It was discarded way back in 2001 along with the other birth certificates in Hawaii.

I’m going by the definition that the Senate Judicial Committee used and as that understood by the Federalist Papers. And you are using what definition, the one you thought up or what? Again, one can be a citizen but not a natural born citizen. Are you one who would use a lesser standard for Obama, Jr. than McCain had to comply with?
Hawaii says they can not legally release the info. and Obama, Jr. has issued a Presidental Order, such documents can not be released without his permission.
If you can support your statements without resorting to insults and “you’re a racist” as others do, I’m willing to listen.

It continues to amaze me that in this debate the media
and the OBOTS continue to ignore and refuse to examines
the evidence of fraud as determined by several licensed
document examiners who regularly are used by the FBI to
examine forged documents. Free your mind OBOTS and quit
spouting the Obama media lapdogs and look at the actual
forensic evidence which clearly shows the document to be
an incredibly sloppy forgery. For starters, why would
the COLB issued in 2007 have the border only found on

By the way, apologies, Dave, for my many duplicate comments, however, birthers are rather slow and challenged and seem to need things repeated over and over and over and over before they even begin to understand, as you clearly already know! ;-)
Birthers…I want to thank you.
A heartfelt thank for your tremendous, ongoing efforts to make republicans look like a bunch of know-nothing, racist nutcases. Thank you for your unwavering devotion to this idiotic issue despite the mountain of contradictory facts thrown in your face every day. Thank you for attacking the moderates and thinking, rational people in your party, and for driving them to run away from your party, screaming in horror, at lightning speed. Thank you for being so completely delusional that you refuse to acknowledge that President Obama is sitting in the White House running the United States. Thank you for ignoring all the real issues going on in the USA right now. Thank you.
Please do keep all this insanity going until we have successfully passed health care reform, the energy bill, education reform, and have successfully brought a case challenging bans on gay marriage to the Supreme Court. Please stay the course. It may be difficult, but you can do it! Please keep this up at least through 2010. We really appreciate you embarrassing and alienating decent republican candidates and voters, inserting a huge wedge in your party, keeping your money and focus on this issue while ignoring the mid-term elections altogether. Thank you. Thank you.
We plan to do so much in the coming months, and then we plan to gain more House and Senate seats and expand our complete control of the entire government in 2010! Your help in this endeavor is very much appreciated.
Thank you birthers, thank you.
Maybe you all really ARE true patriots after all?
Thank you for helping us take the country back.
Please find a republican candidate's town hall meeting near you and raise this issue LOUDLY. I suggest then leading a rousing rendition of the Battle Hymn of the Republic when you do not get the answer you want!
Thank you.

“While they ruled out any chance of the ‘birther’ lawsuits holding up in court, lawyers for the McCain campaign did check into the rumors about Obama’s birth and the assertions made by Berg and others. “To the extent that we could, we looked into the substantive side of these allegations,” said Potter. “We never saw any evidence that then-Senator Obama had been born outside of the United States. We saw rumors, but nothing that could be sourced to evidence. There were no statements and no documents that suggested he was born somewhere else. On the other side, there was proof that he was born in Hawaii. There was a certificate issued by the state’s Department of Health, and the responsible official in the state saying that he had personally seen the original certificate. There was a birth announcement in the Honolulu Advertiser, which would be very difficult to invent or plant 47 years in advance.” – David Wiegel, supra.

I am a proud tax-paying american and it makes me sick to think that we still judge people by the color of their skin. Just remember this, Jesus hepled those who were sick, poor and outcasted by society. GROW UP and do something to HELP those less fortunate than you.

Obama, for the umpteenth time, has shown every proof he was legally required to show – just like all the other candidates did. The only people having a problem with this are the people who want to believe he is bad, so they refuse to look at the real evidence – they only look at the sites that will confirm what they already want to believe.
If you are only getting info from sites that tell you what you want to believe, that's what you'll get.

Slow down, Diogenes. Why, exactly, did Shakespeare pen the famous line “the first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers?” It's not because he hated lawyers. No one reads the context. He had one of the criminals say that, because to proceed with a criminal scheme, they needed to get the lawyers out of the way.
Lawyers help much more than they hinder. When you get sued, you will want a lawyer. When you need to sue, you will want a lawyer. When your daughter marries a lawyer, you won't commit suicide.
Full disclosure. I'm a lawyer. And a Shakespeare fan. And I don't like the idea of a socialist collective. If you like socialism, go to Alaska, because that's the closest thing to socialism that you'll find in America. At least until the Alaska Permanent Fund dries up and Palin's successor can't keep handing out the checks.

Gee, what are you some kinda conspiracy nut ? Of COURSE there is no conspiracy ! It's real simple. If Obama was born aboard a ship before it reached hawaii, his mother and family would have filed a birth notification that would have resulted in a birth certificate AND all the notices in the paper, etc.
He wouldn't be qualified to be president because he was born at sea, but you wouldn't be able tell unless you could see the original birth document.
Where's the conspiracy ?

The only ones that are natural born citizens are the Native Americans. And we all know what happened to them. those same “natural born citizens” kicked them off of their land and put them on reservations and branded them as savages. And all of that was in the name of progress. Some progress we have made when we have to questions ones citizenship when most of us are not really “natural born”.

First of all, it's not a conspiracy theory. People who are alleging a conspiracy (in 1961) are nuts.
Secondly, the definition of what “Natural Born Citizen” means is up to the men who put it in the Constitution, not what YOU think. The only exception to this is by a legislative act to redefine the meaning of that legal term.

Good Grief – do you all have severe short-term memory problems?
1. Having a long or short form birth certificate has NOTHING to do with place of birth. Both long and short will only be issued to births which have been certified to have taken place in the state that issues the certificate.
2. The state of Hawaii has laws – you know that, right? The state of Hawaii issued the certificate that their laws require them to issue.
It really is as simple as that. No mystery, no conspiracy. The state of Hawaii decided years ago to computerize all birth records. Old BC's were scanned in – and the state only issues what Obama got – no long forms. The scanned copy of Obama's original has been checked an verified. The state of Hawaii has confirmed the verification.
Unless you get your news only from right-wing sources, you already know that there is nothing to this made-up conspiracy.

Obots!!!
Think of this as an intervention. This is not about politics. This question strikes at the very heart of what makes this country legitimate. You can be a political supporter of one Barack Obama without being an Obot. Some of us are asking you to open your eyes a little.
Obama has wanted to be President since he was a young boy. This is fact. It is also fact that Barack Obama is ambitious and intelligent. Driven by his ambition, Obama used his intelligence to overcome the one obstacle in the way of him becoming President.
Obviously, Obama had to have some help. Most likely, Obama was financed by some African and Asian Muslims who had the patience to make a long term investment in Obama. We are not saying Obama isn't American at heart. But he is conflicted. He lied about his origins to get into office and he financed those lies with money from radical African Muslims.
One day America will have to go to war against Africa in the same way it went to war against Panama, Haiti, Cuba and Alaskan Separatists. Whose side will Obama be on then? That is why Obama must be removed from office. Biden is obviously in on the conspiracy. Thus I suggest we turn the government over to Hillary Clinton. In these circumstance, I think it would be appropriate to bring Bill Clinton back into the government as Vice-President.
Thoughts?

Nothing personal, but you're wrong about Hawaiian law regarding the long form birth certificate. It was possible until recently to have a baby overseas, come back home to Hawaii, and register that birth in Hawaii. I can't cite for you right off the top, but what I read on this included the language of the law itself and gave examples of births registered in this way.

Source: LA Times
CNN/U.S. President Jon Klein told staffers at the cable news network Thursday night that the supposed controversy regarding the legitimacy of President Obama’s birth certificate is a “dead” story after anchor Lou Dobbs drew attention for raising the issue repeatedly on his radio program.
The website TVNewser reported today that Klein sent an e-mail to staffers of “Lou Dobbs Tonight” just as the program went to air, informing them that CNN researchers had determined that Hawaiian officials discarded all paper documents in 2001. A long-form birth certificate with details about the doctor who delivered Obama no longer exists, they reported. The shorter Certificate of Live Birth noting Obama’s birth on Aug. 4, 1961, that has been made public is the official record.
“It seems to definitively answer the question,” Klein wrote, according to TVNewser. “Since the show's mission is for Lou to be the explainer and enlightener, he should be sure to cite this during your segment tonite. And then it seems this story is dead — because anyone who still is not convinced doesn't really have a legitimate beef.”
In his show Thursday, Dobbs did note the explanation from Hawaiian officials, though he went on to devote another segment to the topic, interviewing CNN contributor Roland Martin and Rep. Ted Poe, a co-sponsor of a bill that would require future presidential candidates to produce their birth certificates.

Anyone think this will stop the birthers? Of course not. Obviously, the fix was in back in 2001…..and the MSM is in on it. Now they can refocus their efforts on finding the memo that Obama wrote that directed Hawaii to destroy all of their vault copies.

Dear right-wing dumbasses;
If you are born in the USA, your parents can be illegal aliens ( from Mexico, si ) and you will be a natural born citizen. Read the damn constitution, the real contract for America.

Sorry pal, you have it backwards. Someone posted links to evidence of the colb being forged and I took the time to read what both sites had and I was convinced of the forgery. It's obvious. You will never do this because you have a personality defect in that you don't like to admit to being wrong. It is what it is.

Obama has no duty to soldiers to address every lunatic with access to a keyboard.
One thing about you right-wingers, you do have over-sized senses of entitlement, you actually think Obama owes you. You make up crap and fling it like a monkey flinging poo and you expect the PRESIDENT to stop working and prove to you what has already been proven. No judge will hear these cases because they are unfounded crap, but you think the president should give in to your insanity. What arrogance.
And, don't pretend this is about you caring about the troops; it isn't. This is right-wing self-indulgence. And racism.

I was really expecting that after the crushing defeat they suffered last fall there would be rebuilding, maybe a move to toss off the know-nothings (like the “Obama is an Arab” woman who McCain had to take the mic from while saying “No, no, no maa'am”). I had not expected them to embrace the fringe, nutcase, racist, know-nothing constituents of the party as their base.
Trust me, seeing the Republican Party in its death throes is fine by me!! I just wonder if we will now simply run unopposed in any meaningful way for a time, or if the moderate, rational folks that once belonged to the Republican Party but have now run screaming will move to build something new?
No matter, I do think we may truly be seeing the death of the Party. And we have the birthers to thank for delivering the final, fatal blow.

If Hawaii destroyed all their vault copies, it means that it is IMPOSSIBLE to prove legitimacy by anyone relying on Hawaii.
As the burden of Proof must be on the person claiming the right and privilege of running for President, a lack of compelling proof ought to be a default disqualification.
Illegitimate. In more ways than one.

I see the tinfoil-hat brigade has been hard at work again. Thus far, we've had:
The US has never landed on the moon
Bill Clinton and his wife had Vince Foster killed
Bush, Cheney, and the other elements of a vast conspiracy destroyed the World Trade Center's towers using either demolition explosives, a missile, or a remotely-guided plane
For me, the funniest thing about all these conspiracies is that my strongly left-wing friends and the frothing-at-the-mouth right-wingers I meet believe in the same conspiracies, though they believe that different people lead them.

You believe this because you want to believe this. You have not looked closely at what is being alleged by the “Right Wing.” Sure, some kooks are alleging conspiracy, but others are simply pointing out that no evidence has been submitted which proves Obama is in fact a “Natural Born Citizen.”
Hawaii allows for people born aboard ship to be registered as being born in Hawaii. This is fine for any legal purpose EXCEPT being President.
If He won't allow us to see his file, how can we believe he's really a “Natural Born Citizen.”

Find that odd? Talk about waging war against having an open mind. Notice how every single OBOT rant has yet to actually consider much less acknowledge the reports from experts in document authentication?
It continues to amaze me that in this debate the media and the OBOTS continue to ignore and refuse to examines the evidence of fraud as determined by several licensed document examiners who regularly are used by the FBI to examine forged documents. Free your mind OBOTS and quit spouting the Obama media lapdogs and look at the actual forensic evidence which clearly shows the document to be an incredibly sloppy forgery. For starters, why would the COLB issued in 2007 have the border only found on the 2008 COLB form? DUH!!!!! . FOR THE LAST TIME! LOOK AT THE FORENSIC EVIDENCE!!! UNFORTUNATELY MANY OBOTS WILL NOT HAVE THE BASIC COMPREHENSION SKILLS NECESSARY TO GRASP THE IMPLICATIONS, HOWEVER, THERE ARE SOME PICTURES SO MAYBE………..?

No evidence has been submitted, other than his birth certificate, you mean? Because even that would be false. Not only has his birth certificate been publicly-available for a year, but Hawaii's state officials, under a Republican Governor, have authenticated it.
What you mean is that President Obama hasn't stopped doing Presidential things just so he could crawl down into the weeds with you dolts.
Hint: he doesn't have the burden of proof. You do. And you've got Phil Berg in his lawsuit citing to Wikipedia in Italy. What does that tell you? Wiki-fucking-pedia even in America wasn't suitable for Berg. He had to go to Italy even to find a Wiki reference that he could hang this nonsensical racist bullshit on.

I second that. When I requested a copy of my birth certificate — by the way, from the state where I was born in the United States — not from “the United States,” I was sent **a copy** of my birth certicate. That's why most states' websites have the language of “Request **A Copy** of Your Birth Certificate.”
And I certainly don't run around keeping my birth certificate in a baggie either, like the Birther Baggie Lady.
The so-called graphics expert has no credibility if he is not even willing to back up his “expertise” by putting his name and face to it, it's that simple.
The Citizens-whatever groupo who have “indicted” Obama are coming close to treason themselves.
Lastly, it's a sad and pathetic world these “birthers” inhabit. Truly creepy.

Well, this is all just part of Alan Keyes' master plan.
He “lost” the race for U.S. Senate to Barack Obama, but little did Obama know that Keyes was just setting up by ducking that race and losing by an astronomical margin, all laying the foundation for a massive assault on Obama when he was weakened by the burdens and limitations of the U.S. Presidency instead of a state senate office, which is what Obama had when he whipped Keyes in the U.S. Senate race.

Seriously. You sound intelligent enough to actually read the truth. You do know that the Constitution doesn’t define natural born citizen, since you quote the Senate Judicial Committee. You’ll find the actual law that defines natural born citizens in the U.S. Code of Law, Title 8 Sec 1401. A natural born citizen, under 1961 law, was any child born on U.S. soil of any parentage. OR a child born of two U.S. citizen parents anywhere in the world as long as they met residency requirements. OR any one of several other options. If it were really true that only children born of two U.S. citizens could ever become president, don’t you think this would have been settled long long ago? You can educate yourself. Really, you can.

It is an official document spit out by the computers at whatever office in Hawaii. The embossed seal is some staff member who represents the Secretary of State attesting that they based this document on the official records on file with the State.
It is, in other words, the type of document that we ALL have to obtain whenever we need a “birth certificate” for purposes of marriage, passport, drivers licenses, social security, etc.
The question is, why is the sort of document good enough for all of us not good enough for Obama?

A lot of people aren't aware that Obama won most of his “elections” by getting illegal dirt on his opponents and leaking it to the press causing them to give up their campaign.
In the case of his opponent Jack Ryan, his people accessed sealed legal records from Jack Ryan's divorce from Jerry Ryan (of star trek fame) and then splattered all of her accusations on the media and the press.
Jack Ryan resigned his campaign, and Alan Keyes was brought in at the last minute as a desperate last straw tactic. It was no surprise to anyone when he lost. Had Mike Ditka agreed to run, Obama would STILL be a nobody.

Wonderful article. Unfortunately, I highly doubt it, or any other media coverage, will put the issue to rest for those who, in their delusional state, cling to it so fiercely.
If one looks at what is truly fueling this conspiracy theory– as one group of concerned citizens at the politijab DOT com forum have been doing for months now–one quickly finds that some of the most dangerous and vile anti-government and racist hate groups are driving the issue and using it to recruit new members.
Many of the birthers are clinging to a vision of the USA that is long past, and maybe never existed. They fear change and diversity, and they cannot accept what is happening before their own eyes. These people are being recruited, slowly, into much more dangerous existing hate groups. They are being encouraged daily to “take up arms” and “join militias” and “take their country back at all costs” and “get that Kenyan usurper and his gorilla wife out of office”. Check any birther chat or blog and these types of comments are rampant. Most of the birthers are likely harmless “armchair warriors”, but such sentiments are dangerous and the racism present in them is absolutely sickening.
Please look further into the roots of this idiocy. That is where the real story exists. No one wants to see another tragedy like the recent events involving Von Brunn, who espoused birther theories on the internet before picking up his gun and shooting an innocent man.

And don't forget to point out that your veteran relatives are better than our veteran relatives because they fought in the same exact battles that every American's veteran relatives fought in.
Because that's essential to any Birther action. Throw in the phrase “Greatest Generation” and be sure to beg for your country back. I guess that implies you've already lost the country. Why should we give it back?
Homer Simpson, Mr. Burns, and Smithers have a trillion dollar bill. Castro asks to see it. Homer hands it over, then says “now give it back.” Castro: “Give what back?” Mr. Burns and Smithers glare at Homer.
Hint: You're Homer.

Who are these “document forgery experts” you're referring to?
I caught Hardball the other day and saw G Gordon Liddy trying to parse some fine distinctions. He seemed confused by the bright lights and vivid colors of the TV studio.
Who else? The guy who blurred his name and face before talking about photoshop on the web? He signed his “affidavit” with XXXXXX so it was not legally admissible.

Diogenes, I am sure you visit Ed Hale's plains radio sewer from time to time, if you are a real birther. Are you even going to attempt to argue the people over there are NOT racists? Please. You truly are delusional. Maybe you should explore your own motives for being involved with this idiocy, and your own feelings about race.

Obama is keeping the best available evidence secret.

No matter what you might think there is no escaping that AKA Obama is not practicing the virtue of full disclosure.

a Former Federal Examiner with a long history of expert testimony in state and federal courts, has testified in an affidavit
http://www.therightsideoflife.com/wp-content/up…
that states, in part:
After reviewing Dr. Polarik’s analysis, Sandra Lines says, “I can state with certainty that the COLB presented on the internet by the various groups, which include the “Daily Kos,” the Obama Campaign, “Factcheck.org” and others cannot be relied upon as genuine. Dr. Polarik raises issues concerning the COLB that I can affirm. Software such as Adobe Photoshop can produce complete images or alter images that appear to be genuine; therefore, any image offered on the internet cannot be relied upon as being a copy of the authentic document.” Sandra Ramsey Lines summary is also posted at U.

It's Official! Hawaii never issued Obama's 2007 Certification of Live Birth
http://polarik.blogtownhall.com/2009/07/14/its_…
“But, the real killer of this birth certificate scam is that Hawaii never made a 2007 Certification of Live Birth for Obama, never issued a 2007 COLB for Obama, and never confirmed anything about this bogus 2007 COLB that Obama, his staff, and Factcheck have insisted is a real document. “
I asked Dr. Onaka if the COLBs are stamped using a machine or by hand. He said, “Both.” Hawaii uses a machine that applies the Seal and stamps electronically and simultaneously. That's why they appear to be placed in the same position, from year to year – except in years where the large Seal design is used. He said that they use a desktop Seal embosser, similar to what notaries use, but much longer, so as to place the Seal higher up on the paper.
I asked him, “Why is the border on 2007 COLB different from the 2008 COLB, why is the Seal larger, and why is your signature stamp located off to the side instead of directly under the Seal? He told me that they alternate the Seal design and border design, and when the Seal (the larger one) doesn't leave enough room to place the signature stamp below it, it's put off to the side. Evidentally, this larger Seal is what is applied by hand, as in every case where it has been used, the Seal impression appears in a different spot on the paper.
Then, I slipped in the the following question. I asked him if Janice Okubo had confirmed that his office produced a 2007 Certification of Live Birth, date-stamped June 6, 2007, with Obama's birth information on it, and he quickly replied:
“Absolutely not. No one in our office confirmed it.”

Again, Buddy, go read the code of law from which the Senate took their definition. That’s only ONE of the definitions for natural born citizen under the law. In point of fact, it was not a Democrat who raised the issue of McCain’s eligibility. It was the same scumbags that tried to make an issue of his adopted child in the 2000 elections. Also in point of fact, according to the law at the time of Sen. McCain’s birth, he did not acquire U.S. citizenship at birth. Barack Obama was born in the United States, on U.S. soil. That makes him a natural born U.S. citizen. Period. End of story.

The Constitution does not provide any specific definition or qualifications for the term “natural born .” The legal requirements are found in Title 8 of the U.S. Code, Section 1401 which defines the following as people who are “citizens of the United States at birth:”
Anyone born inside the United States *
Any Indian or Eskimo born in the United States, provided being a citizen of the U.S. does not impair the person’s status as a citizen of the tribe
Any one born outside the United States, both of whose parents are citizens of the U.S., as long as one parent has lived in the U.S.
Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year and the other parent is a U.S. national
Any one born in a U.S. possession, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year
Any one found in the U.S. under the age of five, whose parentage cannot be determined, as long as proof of non-citizenship is not provided by age 21
Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time)
A final, historical condition: a person born before 5/24/1934 of an alien father and a U.S. citizen mother who has lived in the U.S.
In The Law of Nations there are no definitions of native born or naturalized. These terms do not appear anywhere in “The Law of Nations” (1758) or appear in Vattel’s work on the subject. Additionally, Vattel’s work pertain’s to the laws of Great Britain circa 1800. Therefore, not relevant to U.S. law.
My point below is that if the authors of the Constitution had defined the requirements for “natural born citizen” as strict as the birthers claim, then no one would have met the requirements for the Presidency. Given that the first eight people to be sworn in as President belies the birther’s claimed definition of natural born citizen.
It appears that the birthers are just making up stuff and the suckers take it as truth without checking out the source documents, history or laws. None of the arguments he birthers have made have any substance. It’s all smoke and delusions created by the deceitful and gullible.
Enjoy your fantasy.

Oh, the crimes have been committed. I suspect that his “double-take” on the inaugural swearing-in gives us two counts for the price of one.
As I’ve already observed, given the RICO Act of 1970, there might even be a wonderful “Night of the Long Knives” for the whole DNC leadership over this. All sorts of interesting re-arrangements in the Congress, questions about the validity of legislation your Kenyan Keynesian had falsely signed into law, just oodles of fun.
Personally, I think they’re gonna offer him a “Get Out of Jail Free” card provided he surrenders his U.S. passport and agrees to a plane ride back to Mombasa, but I’d really prefer to see him chucked into the slammer.

We must all remember that anything posted on FactCheck or other websites HAVE NO WEIGHT IN LAW. NONE. Obots/forgers are defending a likely forgery that “exists” only in cyberspace.
It has often been said that there are only two types of nations, one of law or one of men. A nation of law expects the same from everyone; rich and poor, powerful and weak. A nation of men expects nothing but craven self interest and the elite thrives on the friction caused by it.
Obummer, leftists (and obots of course) desire a nation of men because they embrace the base emotions of mankind instead of the self discipline required for a nation of law.

It would appear that all of you are not mentioning the fact that Mrs. Clinton and Barack Obama
did attempt to change the constitutional laws when they were trying to prove that McCain was
elegible to be president. There was something strange about that effort because no one questioned McCain's eligibilty for president. But Barack Obama is still not a natural born citizen of the United States because he does not have two parents who are citizens of the United States. His father was born in Kenya when it belonged to England and he was a citizen of England. I am not against Obama's race. He is half arab and half American. Personally I like him and I like a
lot of other races of people to. We need different races to extend humanity's lifespan on this Earth.

Aw, Mattie. You know what he’s supposed to do.

Then we can see an “IMAGE” of their sworn statement.

What's the Conspiracy supposed to be ?
My current theory is that Barack is probably born in Hawaii, but there is something embarassing on his birth certificate, hence he refuses to release it. What could that something be ?
Blood typing between mother/father and baby doesn't match. Barack looks NOTHING like Barack senior, but he looks a whole hellava lot like Frank Marshall Davis, who was a close friend of the Family.
Blood typing could include/exclude who his father is.
That's ONE theory. Is that a conspiracy ? By who ?
Barack doesn't want to be embarrassed, so he only releases what he wants people to know.

Of course people questioned McCain's right to be President.

Article II of the Constitution requires that he be a “natural born citizen”. The framers wrote extensively that a president must have allegiance from birth SOLELY to the US. Read what the writers of the Constitution said: google John Jay, Sen John Bingham, Sen. Lyman Trumbull- learn the meaning of “natural born.” The term requires a president to be born of TWO US CITIZEN parents.
BO was born a British Kenyan through his father and then adopted Indonesian by his stepfather. He cannot ever be a “natural born citizen” and many lawsuits are in progress to prove it.

While no one contends that a document posted online at factcheck or elsewhere is legally admissible, every rational person admits that the document itself (which was used to make the factcheck online version) is admissible. Moreover, the COLB that is online is not only admissible evidence, it is conclusive evidence of every fact it states.

Okay, i've looked at it. (i've seen it before) Among other problems I notice is that someone is being misleading.
They claim to have seen it first hand, but a post earlier claims that Hawaii destroyed all it's “Vault Copies” back in 1981. HMMM….
Secondly, it claims “We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship.”
Fine. I'm not contesting his citizenship. He's an American Citizen.
Is he a “natural born citizen.” Which is distinctly different.
Also, is the State Department the one who decides on whether or not a man is qualified to run for the office of President ?
Nope. It is the responsibility of the Election officials in EVERY SINGLE STATE to establish his credentials. (The State Dept. Does not officiate over elections. It is a branch of the Executive office.)
Ohhhh, there's more, but the questions i've pointed out are pretty big questions. I'm begining to think that Election Officials don't know the difference between Citizen and “natural born citizen.”
What are they teaching people nowadays ?

Yes, if there's one thing the birthers have displayed, it's the self discipline required for a nation of law.
In fact, next to their grasp of logic, Consitutional issues and basic literacy, the self discipline required for a nation of law has to be one of the Birthers' top defining characteristics.
Not.

Two different wars dude. Fought YEARS apart.
Another theory is that he was Born aboard ship en route back from Kenya. A ship board birth would qualify him for American Citizenship, but not “Natural Born Citizen” status, which is distinctly not the same thing.
Another theory is that he was born in Kenya, (The kenyan's certainly seem to think this is true.) and his family finessed the forms to make it appear that he was born in Hawaii.
Another theory is that He was actually BORN in Hawaii, and that there is nothing embarrassing on his long form Birth Certificate.
So far, I've seen no absolute proof that any of these theories are wrong, and i'm right back to where i've started.
I don't know the truth.

And where do you get the “Obama's side has spent close to a million on legal fees”?? You're saying this as if you know he has spent that just on this issue. Do you? Do you really know that? Or are you saying it as fact because you read it on some birther post?

The birthers in wanting Obama to satisfy their weird requests, which are a bottomless barrel of demands that could never be satisfied, remind me of the Salem witch trials — a young woman or often a teen suspected of being a witch would be held under water; if she drowned she was innocent, but dead; if she came up for air that proved she was a witch so she was then stoned to death. If Obama ignores them, he's guilty; if he answers them it starts them on an even bigger feeding frenzy with new demands.

Chief Wiggum: “Sure you are. Lemme tell ya how the process works. We push you off the cliff… No no, hear me out. We push you off the cliff. If you're innocent, you will fall to an honorable Christian death. But if you're the bride of Satan, you will surely fly your broom to safety, at which point you are to report back here for torture and beheading.”

By the way, apologies, Dave, for my many duplicate comments, however, birthers are rather slow and challenged and seem to need things repeated over and over and over and over before they even begin to understand, as you clearly already know! ;-)
Birthers…I want to thank you.
A heartfelt thank for your tremendous, ongoing efforts to make republicans look like a bunch of know-nothing, racist nutcases. Thank you for your unwavering devotion to this idiotic issue despite the mountain of contradictory facts thrown in your face every day. Thank you for attacking the moderates and thinking, rational people in your party, and for driving them to run away from your party, screaming in horror, at lightning speed. Thank you for being so completely delusional that you refuse to acknowledge that President Obama is sitting in the White House running the United States. Thank you for ignoring all the real issues going on in the USA right now. Thank you.
Please do keep all this insanity going until we have successfully passed health care reform, the energy bill, education reform, and have successfully brought a case challenging bans on gay marriage to the Supreme Court. Please stay the course. It may be difficult, but you can do it! Please keep this up at least through 2010. We really appreciate you embarrassing and alienating decent republican candidates and voters, inserting a huge wedge in your party, keeping your money and focus on this issue while ignoring the mid-term elections altogether. Thank you. Thank you.
We plan to do so much in the coming months, and then we plan to gain more House and Senate seats and expand our complete control of the entire government in 2010! Your help in this endeavor is very much appreciated.
Thank you birthers, thank you.
Maybe you all really ARE true patriots after all?
Thank you for helping us take the country back.
Please find a republican candidate's town hall meeting near you and raise this issue LOUDLY. I suggest then leading a rousing rendition of the Battle Hymn of the Republic when you do not get the answer you want!
Thank you.

Don't you think it's odd that a white woman has a mixed race child in 1961 and not a single member of the Hospital staff has come forward to say they witnessed the birth of our new president ? Hawaii is VERY pro Obama. The people there would likely be VERY proud to admit they were at the Birth of our Historical President.

We saw rumors, but nothing that could be sourced to evidence.
There were No Statements and No Documents that suggested he was Born Somewhere else.
Big Note: On the other side, there was PROOF that he was Born in [Hawaii].
There was a Certificate Issued by the State's Department of Health, and the Responsible Official in the State saying that he had Personally seen the Original Certificate.
There was a Birth announcement in the Honolulu Advertiser, which would be Very Difficult to Invent or Plant 47 Years in Advance.”

BO was born a British Kenyan through his father – No, he's an American citizen, born in America to an American mother – and you have no proof of anything different.
and then adopted Indonesian by his stepfather. – You have no proof of that – but even if he had been adopted, he would still be a natural born Amerian citizen. 1952 law, look it up
He cannot ever be a “natural born citizen” and many lawsuits are in progress to prove it. He is a “natural born citizen” and no courts will get any farther than a rudimentery examination of the facts before throwing any of these bullshit cases out because they have no merit to anyone other than birther nuts.
He is our president, Thank God. Get over it.

May I suggest you read the Constitution before making foolish comment.

The writers specifically exempted themselves since otherwise, there would not be a “natural born citizen” for 35 years.

I do not understand why people are arguing with these birthers. It doesn't take reading very many comments to understand that these people are mentally unstable. Why would you argue with someone who is unstable? You can't explain it to where they would comprehend it as reality. They have their own version of reality. It's sad, but you can't change it unless you can convince them to see a doctor and get on medication. This birther issue is their chosen obsession, a manifested reality they can accept over their true reality. Most of them are harmless, just ranting to relieve themselves of fear and confusion. I say let them be, but any politicans who encourages their silly accusations should be publicly shamed.

It's just laughable how many racists who call themselves birthers waste precious time and energy trying to prove president obama is not a U.S. citizen. Just like the reporter and other sane people on here have said, these bogus claims are irrelevant. The supreme court shot those bogus accusations down like a bad habit. Republicans dont want change, they want to continue to live their lavish lifestyles and to be the only ones to have a say so. They want to come up with any lie or off the wall story to try and get this man out of office because of his race and because he wants to try and level the playing field. Some dont even care whats your race, if you're a low or middle class citizen then they look at you as being different or an alien. The bozos are trying to get obama out of office before his plan even has time to materialize. They critisize everything obama does, even if he tries to prove everything they want they'll come with something else. I would'nt even waste time trying to prove to someone that doesn't want me in office my citizenship or anything else. Lets be real about it, does anyone really believe he would be the president if there was any real substance to these claims. If he came on national T.V. and had his birth certificate posted on his forehead, it still would not be enough. Next they would want to see his room number or talk to the doctor that circumsized him. He could do everything right and these clowns still would'nt be satisfied, a republican is only allowed to be human and make mistakes trying in their eyes. He's is not going to be able to do everything he said and wants to do 100%, no human being can. Six months or maybe even a year cant repair 8 years worth of damage. These spoiled rep. want to have everything their way or no way, no one is trying to take your riches, other people just wanna enjoy life just like you all do. I just cant stand racism and would like to see president obama get a fair chance and time to turn this economy around without being judged and lied on. Because he is black and wants equality doesn't make him the enemy. Since so many want to see him fail, just remember if he fails we all fail. We've had many presidents we did not like but we supported simply for the fact that it makes sense, if we could deal with George “weapons of mass destruction ” bush for eight years then you could put your stupid opinions and racism aside for 4 to 8 years. Even if you decide you cant accept it, oh well. Get over yourselves!!!
Comment posted July 24, 2009 @ 11:48 pm
Good question, Debra. I and the people I've talked to on this thread for a few days do it for two reasons.
First, to present reality in bold, stark relief for the people who don't pay attention to politics and just live their daily lives. They might read a headline, skim the article, and look at the comments to see if there's anything to this issue. We want them to understand IMMEDIATELY that there's not.
Second, birthers are the last group that it is politically-correct to bash. You can't pick on smokers or fat people anymore.
But birthers all come in here with two obvious lies around their necks.
1 – they have access to the same internet we do but apparently they never look beyond World Net Daily and some chain emails their friends at Young Republicans send them; and
2 – although they can parse fine distinctions in a black child's birth certificate/certification/COLB/long form/raised seal/borders from 2008, they are genetically incapable of understanding rudimentary logic or deciphering any applicable law. That goes double for understanding the US Constitution or its implementing legislation.
So they're lying through their teeth. And there's only one reason. The President is black.
So, long story short, it's fun to mock racists who would rather see your country thrown into chaos than accept that a black man legitimately won 7.8 million more votes than a white man.
Hope that helps.

His supportive websites, Factcheck and Fightthesmears have for the past year posted the following statement, his own admission to his foreign citizenship from birth, which by the writers of the Constitution prevents his ever being a “natural born citizen.” His own books agree he was later adopted by Soetoro, an Indonesian Muslim, whom his mother married and his name through childhood was Barry Soetoro. For goodness sakes, learn some of the facts before sounding off..
“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.
Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982.”

It is all pure racism at the least. The real bottom line is the logic that the birth announcement was in the newspaper the day of his birth. Was that put there because someone KNEW he was going to be President and it was cooked up?
C'mon people. Get a life. If you do not believe it fly to Honolulu and go view the Birth Certificate yourself and then be proud you have such an extraordinary brilliant and eloquent gentleman for president. Why didn't you make a big issue of Bush really being elected the President when it never happened? He was voted by the Supreme Court, not the popular people. That was a greater mistake.

Yes Jack, it is an unfortunate truth that government controlled education has failed. It’s failure is causing the loss of a cornerstone of democracy; that being the existance of an informed and discerning electorate. Such an electorate is the only means of limiting the power, and directing the actions of, elected politicians.
It is logically imperative that responsibility for creating an informed and discerning electorate should NOT be vested in the very group whose power and prerogatives will be diminished if such an electorate becomes a majority. The failure of government controlled education is a generally accepted fact.
The pertinent question is, who can best represent the interest of the citizens? Who has the desire, the knowledge, the wisdom, and the access to money to correct “the deplorable state of American education”? I do not believe “politicians” is the correct answer.

You are a racist.
You want to know how I know you are a racist? And yes, you are very definately a racist. It's because you have absolutely no compunction about dehumanizing another person.

That's always the first step for a racist; dehumainze those you would victimize. Gotta remove any vestige of empathy – short work for you, I'm sure.
So how about you quit trying to be coy. Forget the occassional post pretending to just an intellectual question of eligibility, you don't really mean it. Forget the protestations of feigned outrage at being called out for what you are, you aren't really offended by it.
You don't really give a flying rat's ass about the birth certificate or the issue of 'natural born' citizen. Those could be addressed without attacking a woman who died a slow, torturous death in front of her children.
You want, no, you NEED to degrade her. You need to make her less, so that you can feel justified in your hatred. That's why you need to post pictures you hope will bring her down to your level. And when that doesn't work, you start throwing in insults about her sexuality, something you know nothing about, in hopes of getting a reaction to that.
It's all about dehumanizing the “other”, making them appear to be less than you, because you believe they are less than you, you need them to be brought down.
Because Obama is half-black, you have to hate his mother for sleeping with men of color, for sullying the pure white gene pool – that's why you have to make such a big deal of her sexuality.
Because she did that, we have a half black president. That's why you have to attack her. You are a racist.
Obama's mother, on the other hand, was apparently a pretty good woman. The proof of course, is that her children, especially her son, would never lower themselves to the public behavior you have relished in all afternoon, and which you have apparently spent quite a bit of time at beyond this thread.
You are a racist.
Go back to your dirty pictures, nobody here cares about them except for you and the other racists pretending this has anything to do with Hawaiian birth records.

“The problem with this? Parents and relatives don’t, and didn’t, get to place birth announcements in the Honolulu Advertiser or the Honolulu Star-Bulletin. As a Star-Bulletin employee explained to WorldNetDaily, the editors “print what we receive from the Department of Health Vital Statistics System,” and did so in 1961. And the Advertiser worked the same way.” –David Weigel, from 7/24/09 article entitled “Mythbusting the Honolulu Newspaper Birth Announcement”

ShawnE… I am also an American of African descent. I wanted to respond to your post and not one of these hateful fake Christian kooks. I do believe as a proud black man that the deplorable state that so many of our brothers and sisters are in today is at least partially due to the after effects of centuries of captivity, denial of education, breeding for physical strength, the destruction of the family unit by slavemasters, discrimination, physical and sexual abuse, inadequate diet, lynchings, segregation, and the self hatred that resulted from it. That’s a lot of abuse for a very long time to just disappear from a culture in a few decades. Yes, I said CULTURE… the current blacks in America were not directly victimized by slavery or Jim Crow, etc, but lasting damage was done to the culture of black people in America. I BELIEVE THIS COUNTRY REMAINS CULPABLE, HOWEVER……. I do not espouse reparations and truly believe the only answer to this for blacks in America is forgiveness and to look inward and help ourselves. This won’t happen overnight, but I think the positive role modeling of an intelligent BLACK president is a great start.

NOTE: Items reference Resolution 511 (Mc Cains Eligibility for POTUS), Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, April 2, 2008 (quotes in part); Chairman Leahy asks Sec. Chertoff, Dept. of Homeland Security, “Do you have any doubt in your mind -I mean, I have none in mine. Do you have any doubt in your mind that he is constitutionally eligible to become President?” (This is in reference to a vetting of Sen. John Mc Cain’s eligibility.) Secretary Chertoff replies, “ My assumption and my understanding is that if you are born of American parents, you are naturally a natural born American citizen.” (note; parents is plural) Chairman Lehey, “That is mine too. Thank you.”
Now, I do not know why someone did not raise this same question regarding Barrack Obama Jr.’s eligibility, but some democrat contested John Mc Cains eligibility because he was born in the Panama Canal Zone. The above back and forth in the Senate Judiciary Committee proves that they had an understanding of the US Constitutional requirement that for one to be eligible to be POTUS, one has to a Natural Born Citizen and the definition thereof. While the location of Obama Jr.’s place of birth is still in question, it appears as fact his father was not a U.S. citizen, and apparently therefore is not eligible to be PONTUS. Why was Obama, Jr. not thoroughly vetted? Why does he refuse to release the vault documents? Not important? It could be embarrassing, as stated by Obama, Jr.'s attorneys? He sure as hell did not do this on his own. Perhaps it is alright to apply a certain standard to Sen. McCain and a different standard to Obama, Jr.? And of course, the US Constitution is a living document so we can pick and choose its application of law depending upon one's views or lawyer it up. (My Opinion).

What was that you were saying about a “foolish comment?” So you obviously don't apply the same standards to yourself.
Much has been written about what it takes to be a natural born citizen. You cite none of it and have obviously read none of it.
Tell us, how is it that YOU can read the Constitution and pick out something that McCain's lawyers, Bush's Justice Dept., Hillary's PUMA's, Republican Senators, Republican House Members, and right-wing talk show / talk radio hosts missed?
NONE of those people was saying Obama isn't natural-born during the election. ALL of them knew that the official story is that Obama was born in Hawaii to an American mom and a Kenyan father.
Your explanation for this? You're smarter than all those people put together.
If only there was a second possible explanation… Can't think of it. Little help?

I 100% agree with you annijiea – it seems that most people need reminding that white people can be and are racially discriminated against as well, along with every other race. Also, just because a person did not vote for Obama, does not automatically mean that they are racist – I’m not saying that those people are not out there, because unfortunately they are – but the person that did not vote for Obama could very well just disagree with his policies. If a person DID only vote for Obama based on race, then I think that person needs to take a closer look at themselves before calling others racist.

Obama could put a quick end to this by producing the correct and legal birth document…….a very simple thing to do.
But he chooses not to, instead spending a great amount of tax dollars on a legal defense getting the cases thrown out of court. What passes the smell test ? As it stands now it stinks badly–badly that he choses not to produce the birth document, a cheap and simple thing to do. Something an intelligent man would do. Instead, obama hides behind his “official status”
There are many mysterious things about obama, such as how he has no trail of transcripts, articles, books and papers that would follow one who attended Harvard Law School and Columbia University, and was president of the Harvard Law Review. Nothing here either.
A president who has admitted communists working in the White House, should worry every American. Thankfully, cracks are beginning to form in his ” perfect presidecy” Like Hitler, obama can talk convicingly, and make you believe in him. But wake up soon, because if he continues, America will be destroyed by wreckless spending, weakened national defense, and a weak posture toward rouge nations and the terrorist community.
The fact he was elected says a lot of how ignorant our population is. As long as America spends more time watching oprah and stupid reality shows, and ignores the social and political reality of our corrupt congress and government, things can only get worse.

He hasn't spent a cent. Link, please.
Even if he spent $20 million it was a great investment. Cheaper than running a 30-second national ad. Yet, he gets free publicity over and over and over, showing that his political opponents are freaks who wear birth certificates around their necks, or racists who send stupid cartoons by chain-email, or philanderers who only see fit to pay off two of their mistress's THREE kids.
Where can I donate? Does a donation to Obama's campaign go directly to funding these birther outbursts? Because I want to make sure my dollar goes straight into the pocket of the Ziplock Bag Lady's apparel provider, Xenophobic Racist Whackjob, Inc., in a joint venture partnership with K Swiss.

The President doesn't have to prove anything. The birthers need to prove he is not a U.S. citizen. They want to take the word of some Kenyan woman who is supposed of made a sworn statement that she witnessed the birth according to they're leader G. Gordon Liddy (convicted criminal) So, since when do the people of the U.S.A. take the word of some dirt poor Kenyan woman? Yeah, right. Pay anyone in Kenya and they will tell you they witnessed Obama being born on the moon. What a bunch of maroons.

ARGGGGGHHHHH!!!! Just when I thought I was out, they keep sucking me back in!
Buddy, this is NOT true: “While the location of Obama Jr.’s place of birth is still in question”.
That is not to say there are not people who are not sure of the answer, but there are also people who are still not sure of the shape of the earth and there are apparently quite a few who think a talking snake was intrumental in the inception of human life on this planet.
If you are one of those, then maybe you have some questions about Obama's birth, but that's a Buddy issue, not an Obama one.
Secondly, ” it appears as fact his father was not a U.S. citizen, and apparently therefore is not eligible to be PONTUS” I'm going to assume you meant POTUS. Whatever, apparently you have been misinformed – Obama's father's citizenship has no impact on the fact that Obama is a natural born American – born on American soil, duly recorded, announced, witnessed, etc.
What are you basing this question on: “Why does he refuse to release the vault documents”? How is it you do not know that all docs have already been released and verified?
And, finally, why are you assuming there was no vetting? Seriously, dude, get a fucking grip. When faced with this huge potential conspiracy, your reaction isn't to question the validity of the charges, your reaction is to wonder why nobody noticed it until a few right-wingers uncovered it? Really?
So, you believe that nobody knows for sure where he was born but he still managed to get onto state and national ballots without anyone noticing?
And, you believe the State of Hawaii knows this and isn't telling?
And, even though it has always been known that his dad was Kenyan, you believe that should have excluded him from running and NOBODY said anything?
You also believe that the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, a conservative appointed by Bush, the most expert expert on the Constitution that we have in this entire country, knew his dad was Kenyan and that therefore Obama should have been, according to you, ineligible, and he still swore him in as President – TWICE???
Just how far down the rabbit hole do you want to go with this?

Obama's grandmother never said she saw him being born. From the link above:
What you're “referring to is actually an affidavit filed by a street preacher named Ron McRae, who conducted an interview with Sarah Obama, the second wife of President Obama's grandfather, through a translator. (Sarah Obama is not the president's biological grandmother, but he calls her “Granny Sarah.”)
In that interview, Sarah Obama does in fact say at one point that she was there for her grandson's birth. But that was a mistake, a confusion in translation. As soon as a jubilant McRae began to press her for further details about her grandson being born in Kenya, the family realized the mistake and corrected him. And corrected him. And corrected him. (The audio is available for download here.)”

The document Obama produced is “prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court of law”–it says so right on the bottom!
Follow along here if you can. Do you understand that Hawaii went paperless in 2001? Do you understand what that means? That means they took all the information from those old dusty paper documents and they put that information inside something we call a computer (NOTE: You are using a computer RIGHT NOW! *GASP*). Then, they got rid of all those dusty old paper documents, because the very same information that was on those paper documents is now inside the thing we call a computer (again, you are using one RIGHT NOW). Now, when anyone requests a copy of their birth certificate, Hawaiian officials print out a document (the one Obama has) that contains the birth information stored inside the thing we call a computer (again, you are using one right now). That information IS the same information that was on those old dusty paper documents which Hawaii tossed away once they went PAPERLESS (paperLESS, meaning, NO more paper, paper free).

Then, according to your opinion, every child born of a US citizen single mother, where father's name is not listed cannot be a natural born US citizen??? This is absurd. Or, it is the greatest argument for marriage: The only way you can become president is for your parents to be married when you were born? And just how might you ensure this, so that 40 years or so later, you could make sure you could be president? “No children of single parents need apply.”

None of this hooplah is anything more than the tantrums seen from children suffering the “terrible twos”. We often don't get what we want–at times what we really need. Mature adults adapt. Children keep on 'acting out'. The noise of rationalization does not equate to maturity, nor that you deserve or have a right to what you claim.
Racism—nah. Racism requires acutal power to affect. Children quiet down after they whip themselves into a drooling, sniveling frenzy and they realize–they really have little.

It was scanned in 2001. Many states (if not all) have done this. Go check it out it is not hard to figure out. So much hatred so little time….God help you man. That hate is thick.

President Obama HAS shown his BC.
“The fact he was elected says a lot of how ignorant our population is” Did the fact we elected President George W Bush show how smart or ignorant we are?
“A president who has admitted communists working in the White House, should worry every American.” link?
“Like Hitler, obama can talk convicingly, and make you believe in him.” Did you say the same thing about President Ronald Reagan? I voted for President Reagan and really hated to type his name next to Hilter but I hate to see it next to OUR President as well.
Ok, you don't like our President and YOU are smarter than everyone who voted for him. The odds are greatly against you here.

Well; one can be a citizen under place of birth and a parent citizenship considerations (usually the father), but to be a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN, one needs to be a US citizen -and- born of two (2) US citizens (as noted and confirmed in the Senate Judicial Committee meeting) and in the Federalist Papers, whereby it is noted the founders were concerned over the potential for a conflicted or divided loyalty (around pages 16-17, I believe). This requirement is unique to the office of the President, as the position is unique as one of the three legs of the republican form of govt. This requirement is not necessary for elgibility as a senator for instance (need only be a citizen, not a NBC… there is a difference.)
In regards to the Hawaiian document, it is a Certificate of Live Birth, not a Certified long form birth certificate. Hawaii is saying it saw a long form birth certificate (but won't release it's basis or documentation) Hawaii gave these things out like flyers, perhaps to jive up it's population firgures for distribution of federal funds based on population. Also note on the Hawaiian document, it states Obama, Jr.'s father is “African” and Barrack H. Obama, I. I then go back to the requirement that one must be born of two (2) US Citizens. Obama, Jr. himself states that Obama, Sr. was his father, who was a citizen of Kenya. Do you understand? To me, and the point I'm making is; I don't care at this time where HE was born, he was't born of two (2) citizens, out of HIS own mouth. (My opinion)

Old news, but hey, here's some facts for you:
The soldier started posting months ago on Free Republic and other sites that he was going to do the following:
1. Volunteer for activisation from Reserve status to Active duty
2. Deployment for a tour in Afghanistan.
3. Refuse to obey orders to deploy because he's a birther, and doesn't like Obama being CIC.
Keep in mind, he planned to do this months in advance, so he's hardly some poor conscript being forced to go against his wishes.
He's also apparently a gigantic idiot, because:
1. He never had to go, he volunteered.
2. Because he was a reservist who volunteered, he still didn't have to go.
3. He had the option of changing his mind up till the day before deployment.
So, his big gesture was a bunch of BS. All it did was cause a lot of other military people a lot of work they shouldn't have had to do. Orders are not generated and cancelled without work. And, of course, now someone else will go to Afghanistan in his place. Nice way to take your fellow soldiers into account. What an ass.
Nice ironic touch for an ending: the idiot had a day job with the DOD. When he threatened to sue the Army, (which is illegal under the UCMJ, and was just one of his actions for which he could have faced charges), they pulled his security clearence and he lost his day job.
He better hope his dentist/lawyer can get him some speaking gigs.

In your mind; in mine it has nothing to do with race. It has to do with qualifying per the U.S. Constitution, the supreme LAW of the land, unless we've become a lawless country. And I repeat, one can not logically, legally nor fairly apply a different standard of eligibility to Obama, Jr. than what was used for McCain. (My Opinion)

I've looked at the document you note. I have a copy of it on file…… read it, it says, “Certificate of Live Birth”. It is NOT a certified long form birth certificate. Make jokes of it if you like…. you are just saying it doesn't matter to you, anymore than the US Constitution does. I have one, you probably have one BUT Obama, Jr. does not? Very, very easy to settle the issue; release the long form birth certificate. Duh.

No, Buddy, no, you do not get to supercede the Constitution by pulling a Senate Judicial Committee meeting and the Federalist papers out of your butt. That might work at Freeper conventions, but it ain't law.
And, yes Hawaii has provided all the documentation – ALL of it. You really need to get past this bizarre sense of entitlement that just because you say you don't believe it, state and Federal Governments have to stop and reprovide what has already been provided.
It will not be delivered to your doorstep. They have already done what they were required to do. You and the rest of the birthers are the only ones refusing to acknowledge it.
But, for points on creativity, I have to give it to you for this piece of balderdash: “Hawaii gave these things out like flyers, perhaps to jive up it's population firgures for distribution of federal funds based on population”
Props to you, that's maximum crap in one short sentence. Of course, you have proof, right?

Hm? There seems to be a number of other posters on this thread who are interested in using this “birth certificate” issue to (figuratively, stevie, just figuratively!) burn your Mombasa Messiah at the stake.
Some seem to hate him for his tiny trace of Negro blood (his father was in large part Arab, and only partially of Luo tribal origin; indeed, both “Barack” and “Hussein” are derived from the Arabic, and American Blacks – who descend from chattel slaves – are ironic in their pride in having elected “one of us” when in fact Barry’s paternal lineage goes back to peoples who were owners of slaves, dealers in slaves, and made plenty of money selling Black slaves to White purchasers). Some are Republicans who hate him sufficiently for being a popular Democrat.
I hate him because he’s a Keynesian socialist who is destroying the American economy. I’m sure I’ll eventually find other reasons, but his determination to “do a Mugabe” on the U.S. dollar is enough to get me pretty sufficiently pissed off.
But I’m no more alone in my enthusiasm for seeing your Blessed Barry into a narrow little room in Leavenworth than you are in your butt-sucking Obamaphile perversion, stevie.

Problem is, christine, that the “birth certificate that is online” is not a birth certificate (or even a Hawaii Certification of Live Birth) but rather a couple of computer graphic images of what is supposed to be such a COLB, allegedly uttered in 2007, and those images show a helluva lot of signs that they're cobbled-together Frankenstein monsters of fraudulence.
So if there really is a COLB for your Mombasa Messiah – from which those images were purportedly scanned back in June 2008 – where is it? Why hasn't it been brought forth and put into the hands of a panel of competent and impartial forensic documents examiners who are prepared to attest under oath as to its contents and provenance?
And, while we're at it, how come your beloved Barry is still keeping everything else in his past, including his academic records from Kindergarten through Law School and his medical records in Kenya –
(( “Warning, Will Robinson! Danger! Danger!” ))

What doesn't matter to me is your convoluted attempts to weasel out of the obvious:

And my BC, which I have had for decades, does not have all the info you birthers are demanding. So, I guess nobody from Michigan better try and be pres., right? Might be some damn Canadian trying to sneak in.

If the birth certificate issue will make the “birthers” look rather idiotic and foolish, then let the long form Certificate of Live Birth with the time, date, Hospital name, birth weight and infants height in inches, doctors name and signature be shown to the public. Simple as that. Put them all to rest.
If it is in the Department of Hawaii Vital Records…. Just have it produced by BHO. The form that was submitted is a legal form but, does not have all the vital information which will quell any doubts because it is given for babies who were not born in Hawaii either. Therein lies the problem.

If Obama is, indeed, an American citizen, somewhere in Hawaii there should be the original birth certificate. Let's see it. Why are some people content to accept just a certificate of live birth? Americans now deserve to view the real thing. Also, why aren't the records of every hospital in Hawaii searched for the birthing information? Even though it's been a long time ago, those records likely still exist. Who was the doctor or nurse attending the birth? Are they still living? Also, the state must have the original information of birth. Let's see it. Certainly, this is public record when it comes to verifying citizenship of a presidential candidate. And another thing, birth announcements are usually placed in the newspaper by the hospsital. Obama's was placed by his mother. That's out of the norm. Was Obama really born outside the U.S. and the mother wanted him to be a citizen so she covered herself by placing the ad? How long after the birth did the announcement appear? Lots of questions and lazy reporters who apparently don't want to delve into it.

“The Department of Hawaiian Home Lands accepts both Certificates of Live Birth and Certifications of Live Birth because they are official government records documenting an individual. Although original birth certificates are preferred for their greater detail, the State Department of Health no longer issues Certificates of Live Birth. When a request is made for a copy of a birth certificate, the DOH issues a Certification of Live Birth.
When we spoke to a spokeswoman for the Hawaii Department of Health, she said too much was being made of the difference between the so-called “long” and “short” forms.
“They're just words,” said spokeswJanice Okubo. (what was posted on the Internet) is considered a birth certificate from the state of HI”

[...] David Weigel takes another look at the “Birther” movement which believes that Barack Obama was not born in the United States and is therefor not eligible to be president. He found that the McCain campaign did check into the rumors but found that there was no substantive evidence that Obama was born outside of the United States: A survey of the lawsuits filed against Obama reveals a reliance on widely debunked rumors, bogus stories sourced back to web sites, affidavits from “experts” who refuse to provide credentials or even their real names, and frequent and blatant misunderstandings of basic constitutional law. The dismissal of “birther” lawsuits has allowed conspiracy theorists to believe that the information in those suits is accurate–a belief that manifests itself in the emails, phone calls, and town hall meeting rants that have pushed the theories into the mainstream media and the halls of Congress.

Neither Queens or Kapiolani hospital in Hawaii has a record for his birth. There has yet to be a doctor or nurse or any staff person to remember the birth. The neighbor who has lived at the same building address given as the residence on the newspaper since 1959 stated that obama's mother never lived there. Surely, she would remember a white woman with her African husband and their newborn son.

Hawaii ALLOWS COLB documents to babies not born in state or Territory (pre statehood):

Not being a big fan of hard-core democrats or repubs, and not being expert on this matter, sounds like an issue being created by (at best) sore losers from the other political party, or (at worst) racists. My guess is that mainstream republicans would be wise to stay away this crowd. Also seems that dems wouldn't be upset if this crowd stays distracted by this issue for all four years and drags well known conservatives into this noise.

Facts? You got facts, christine? You mean, like, unimpeachable (oh, that word!) hard evidence that your Chicago machine politician, Barry Soetoro/Obama/Whatever, the ACORN “community organizer,” really was born in Honolulu instead of Mombasa?
You know, something like a Certification of Live Birth physically presented to competent forensic documents examiners willing to swear as to its real contents and provenance?
Nah. You just continue sucking down Barry's bullpuckey, christine. I'm pretty sure that Barnum underestimated the birth rate among you suckers by at least three or four orders of magnitude.

You, as with any birther plaintiff in any birther lawsuit, bear the burden of proving that he is not eligible. I will eagerly read your proof. Proof does not mean “I pieced it together, mainly from sugar packets.”
Anything else? I’m happy to help with any good faith question you may have.
And if you keep saying ridiculously absurd bullshit you don’t even mean, I’m going to keep mocking you for doing so.
But then, you no doubt have all sorts of “evidence” and “sources” for what you’re about to demonstrate to me, so you should have nothing to fear.

‘this is idiotic, but explain to me why,’”
“After the DNC requested a dismissal of Berg’s lawsuit, he responded in a Sept. 29, 2008 filing that cited numerous Internet rumors and incorrect citations of American and international law. Berg cited “Wikipedia Italian version” and “Rainbow Edition News Letter” as evidence…”
Berg argued that there was “absolutely no way Obama could have ever regained ‘natural born’ status.”
“That’s just completely wrong,” said Mitzi Torri, an Arizona-based immigration lawyer.
Obama’s step-grandmother Sarah Obama, who lives in Kenya, being goaded into saying (through a translator) that the future president was born in Kenya before quickly correcting herself. (A doctored version of this tape, which cuts off before the retraction, is posted on YouTube.)
Another claim: Obama traveled to Pakistan in 1981, when it was illegal for an American to do so, suggesting that he used a non-American passport. The problem is that there never was any such ban. small PROBLEM for substantiation.
“We have no record of any travel ban between America and Pakistan during that period or since,” said Noel Clay, a spokesman for the State Department.
“We got that from someplace,” Berg told TWI on Thursday. In an email, he added his paralegal was “reviewing” his files on Pakistan. Yet the false claim appears in Orly Taitz’s lawsuit on behalf of perennial presidential candidate Alan Keyes, which argues that Obama visited Pakistan “when entrance to Pakistan was banned to Americans, Christians and Jews,” proof that he gave up his American citizenship. (One might suggest that they got it by pulling it outta someone's ass, you know, like the “THREE KINGS” Iraqi 'Ass Map'?
“Polarik” submitted an affidavit in support Orly Taitz’s Keyes case that is signed “XXXXXXXXXXX,” making it inadmissible. “If it ever comes down to it,” explained Gary Kreep, another lawyer for Keyes, “we’ll use his real name.” (Hello, 'it came down to 'it', and was tossed, ya think THAT might have been a good time to 'come forward'?
Carl Swensson, a conservative activist from Georgia, has organized “Citizens’ Grand Juries” that have indicted the president for treason. Now these boys do have experience in 'organizing' but it's going to be a tough 'sell' when their jurors show up in WHITE SHEETS, not black robes.
Mario Apuzzo, a New Jersey attorney, has sued Obama on the grounds that he never was, and never could be, a “natural born” citizen. Both men pass over precedent for “The Law of Nations,” the 1758 treatise by the 18th century French scholar Emerich de Vattel. “It’s what the founding fathers used,” explained Swensson.
And, these are the same fu*kers that last week were RANTING about Sotomayor wanting to apply 'FUR-IN' law on MUR-icans!! What a difference a week makes, eh?

Let's say it's June 2008. You work in the Obama campaign and people are making real nuisances of themselves by insisting that your Mombasa Messiah has to provide some sort of proof that back in his gadabout prenatal and childhood days, he actually got born somewhere in these United States.
Problem is, you know that he was born in Kenya, which in his mind is one of those “57 states” he mentioned in that speech, but which has not yet been admitted to the Union.
Yeah, he's planning on that, but it's so damned awkward right now….
Okay, so you scan in a Hawaii state Certification of Live Birth. Hell, you scan in two of 'em, one issued one year, the other stamped and sealed in another year. Then you use Photoshop to put together something that looks wonderfully like a real COLB for your Anointed One. A bit of one scan here, something from the other one there, you paste over this with that, and wipe out each entry to write in what you want it to show, and – presto! – Barry's got a “birth certificate”!
You then email the JPG to those suck-ups at DailyKos and the J-school jerkwads at FactCheck, and….
Oh, crap. They want to see a real COLB now?

Despite the 1,700 well metered words contained in the article above, which present a rationally modulated debunking of the 'birther” conspiracy, the ensuing comments are riddled with the same nutty delusions. This controversy is not about facts, it is about visceral prejudices. No amount of empirical data will change the deeply held bigotry of the complainants. A public revealing of a “long form Certificate of Birth” would only serve as a platform for the next installment of crazy talk from these folk.
The ever expanding neural network of interactive digital information (internet, twitter etc.) allows for the consolidation of groups of people with excessively maladaptive cognitive processes, and the injection of increasingly irrational tendencies into our social fabric. Long term, a continuation of this trend will undermine our capacity to function as an interdependent community of 300 million souls.

Well, don't blame the nursing or physician staff at either Queens or Kapiolani for having forgotten the occasion of Barry's birth. After all, in 1961 there were tons of babies being born to teen-aged White girls married to big Black men from Kenya.
Oh, sorry. On those wonderful fantasy COLB images the Obamaphiles slobber over, it says that Barry's daddy was “African,” doesn't it?
Y'know. “African” like in “Egyptian” or “Berber” or “Afrikaans.” Yeah, African.
And I'm “North American.” You can read it on my birth certificate.
Oh, darn. No, you can't.
Never mind.

Yes, Barry “is an ACTUAL US citizen” right now.
But – aw, sorry! – it's pretty certain he isn't a “natural born” citizen of these United States. And therefore he's a federal criminal awaiting indictment, prosecution, conviction, and incarceration.

If it's a distraction (to paraquote P.J. O'Rourke), it's like “distracting” a grizzly bear bent upon eating your children.
I don't doubt that the “mainstream” Red Party thieves and rapists want to stay away from this attack upon their Blue Party colleague. They want to get on with bargaining away the rights and property of the citizenry, just as they've always done. Remember, that “mainstream” you're talking about is the central flow of a goddam sewer.
But as it keeps up, more and more otherwise hapless, hopeless, “Oh, Christ, we can't do anything to keep this sonofabitch from killing us off!” folks out there will begin to latch onto the idea that the socialists bronzen idol has very definite feet of clay.

I quote:
“Barack Obama is the pampered pet of Chicago gangsters. He is good buddies with a murderous African dictator. And his wacko leftist academic background evokes memories of the style of sideways thinking that inspired the death marches in Cambodia.
“The man burns to have a private army all his own. During the election campaign, he threatened to create a 'domestic security force' as large and well-funded as the entire U.S. military, just the thing to send door-to-door (as the police attempted in the Chicago projects) searching for privately-owned weapons. Sure enough, the very first item to appear on his website http://www.change.org following the election was a proposal to require 'mandatory community service' — 50 hours a year from junior high school and high school students, 100 hours from those in college — or the individuals in question needn't expect to graduate.
“Over the years, I've made a lot of predictions that have come true. Remember this one: two years from now, even those who supported Barack Obama most enthusiastically will be feeling a certain nostalgia about George W. Bush and secretly wishing they'd voted for John McCain.
Yeah, I know, disgusting. But that's the way the world works. Nobody alive today would willingly admit to voting for Adolf Hitler, although the third or fourth worst mass-murderer in history (behind Mao Tse Tung, Joseph Stalin, and, on a per capita basis, Pol Pot) won by a landslide. Once the outrages to come have ended and there are thousands — perhaps even millions — of Obama's crimes to account for, would you want to admit to having voted to make those crimes possible?“

Anybody see what is happening to this country??? He has refused to show any records..Why?
Obama's unwillingness to allow the American public to see his records at Harvard Law School prevents resolution of a continuing controversy over whether radical Islamic influences promoted his admission and financed his legal education there.
Harlem lawyer Percy Sutton – whose clients included Malcolm X – explained that Islamic radical Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour, “one of the world's wealthiest men,” asked him to write a letter of recommendation to Harvard Law School for then relatively unknown Barack Obama. Who was that man who paid for his tuition? Probably the Saudi prince as al-Mansour was the adviser to the world's riches man.
The reason so many try to debunk the controversies surrounding obama is because he has allowed it (don't address the real issues)…. part of the Alinsky method he taught. “Keep them guessing” and then attack. Strategies are make conflict, panic , hit them with a hail storm of brutal tactics. Ridicule is the most potent weapon. Keep up the pressure. Keep the opposition off balance . “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it and polarize it”. Go after people not institutions…people hurt faster cut off the support network. And…. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule.
Like the comment of the police acting “stupidly”.

As a True Patriot and not some Liberal media sheep, I just wantto say this: there is no “evidence” you liberals can make up that will ever convince us.
The very size of this conspiracy proves its existence! Wake up people! They've taken over the federal gov't, the state dept, the Republican director of Hawaii Dept of Health, McCain and Palin (God bless them), even librarians! They got to all the Supreme Court justices – even Scalia! And don't get me started about the MEDIA!
There is only one conspiracy evil and vast enough to pull this off. Will a TRUE AMERICAN step up and say it here, please?!?

In response to “chameleon”, earlier post: The writers of the Constitution defined “natural born citizen” clearly as those born of two US citizen parents and “subject to the jurisdiction” of the US. In their writings at the time of the Constitution's formulation, they went on to say that “subject to the jurisdiction” meant “complete jurisdiction” with the person at birth having no allegiance to any other country. They stated it was their intent to allow into the presidency no one with foreign influence. There would be no logical reason for our founders to explain their concern over potential dual citizenship, or potential conflicts of allegiance unless they specified both (2) parents were to be of US Citizenship. Obama, Jr. was not born of two (2) US Citizens, ergo… Obama, Jr. would not be eligible for POTUS. I don't think, certainly hope that can not be lawyed up.
And as noted; to have the Senate Judicial Committee (Chaired by a democrat) use a standard and/or definition incorrect or wrong (and by both the Chair and the Sec. as noted following) of the term Natural Born Citizen is not plausible for me. However, I will research the source you give. I certainly consider the following a precedent if nothing else, but thank you for the reference to look at.
NOTE: Items reference Resolution 511 (Mc Cains Eligibility for POTUS), Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, April 2, 2008 (quotes in part); Chairman Leahy asks Sec. Chertoff, Dept. of Homeland Security, “Do you have any doubt in your mind -I mean, I have none in mine. Do you have any doubt in your mind that he is constitutionally eligible to become President?” (This is in reference to a vetting of Sen. John Mc Cain’s eligibility.) Secretary Chertoff replies, “ My assumption and my understanding is that if you are born of American parents, you are naturally a natural born American citizen.” (note; parents is plural) Chairman Lehey, “That is mine too. Thank you.”
President Obama, Jr. should not be held to a lesser standard. (In my opinion.)

I believe that as an American taxpaying citizen that in the best interests of our country we should put into law the financial penalties that those who are wasting our time filing frivolous lawsuits and in general acting like a bunch of gossipy children, be extremely stiff in monetary values. If these people are honest in their beliefs and have followed thru on the process of proving their statements then file your objections and/ or state your mind publicly but be forwarned that a lack of positive proof(conjecture) will indeed be costly to those that file lawsuits without the documented proof that a law has been broken. As a grown up I am truly dismayed at some of us who put an outstanding education to such a wasteful purpose.

The claim “There was a birth announcement in the Honolulu Advertiser, which would be very difficult to invent or plant 47 years in advance.” means absolutely nothing. Ever hear of Photoshop?
Until such time as his records are unsealed (McCain's medical records were somewhere in the range of 1K), people are going to insist: WHERE'S THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE?

Not every white man owned slaves or agreed with slavery, and not every black man is going to hit you over the head in a dark alley. Stereotypes suck don't they?
You were never a slave, and I was not raised a privleged little white girl with everything handed to me. I had nothing and was not given a higher education.

Under a properly functioning civil government, red, there's no need for us to “just like each other for who/what we are.”
We can just live together in peace, nobody plundering, enslaving, or ramming his ideas down his neighbor's throats by way of government power grown malignantly out of its proper role.
Once you get it through your head that in a representative republic such as ours, the officers of civil government aren't supposed to play Santa Claus, or to pick winners in the economy, or provide “health care,” or even print the damned currency (they're charged with guaranteeing its value – preventing counterfeiting or the equivalent of check-kiting, not “regulating” the value of the dollar to the point that it's not worth the amount of copper that used to be struck into a hundred pennies).
Government as an institution has limitations in what it can do and in what it should do in order to keep our society from devolving into “state of nature” chaos. The Founders struggled with that problem, and came up with the Constitution.
Which wasn't perfect, God knows – but it beats the hell out of what we're living under right now.
You want the solution to this and most of the rest of the messes in which you find yourself?
Okay. You pitch in with the rest of us and demand that the Constitution – especially those first ten Amendments making up the Bill of Rights – gets enforced.
Ram it right down Barry's throat. Ram it right down the throats of Nancy and Harry and Chris and Barney. Ram it right up Bernanke's butt, and beat ACORN to death with it.
Get the Constitution firmly in mind, red, and use it the way Jefferson spoke of it.
Bind them down from their mischief with the chains of the Constitution.

“Ever hear of Photoshop?”
Oh. Okay. You mean that the actual newspaper doesn't say that, but because of Photoshop, they doctored it? All right.
That leaves two possibilities.
Either the Obama co-conspirators also went house to house and business to business, searching everyone on Earth's attic and basement for the odd chance that there was a 40-some-odd year old (depending on when the search was done) Hawaiian 1961 newspaper out there, and burning each one that they found, or,
Someone out there is in possession of a Hawaiian newspaper from 1961 that could soon be worth millions of dollars to the owner.
Because even if someone Photoshops what they show you online, there's gotta be an original somewhere. And if you're right, that newspaper won''t show Barack Obama's birth. And that's an awfully big chance to take, if you're Obama. Or Obama's mom. Or any of the dozens of high-ranking people on both sides of the aisle who would have to be in on this conspiracy.
Ever hear of reality? It's safe. Come on in.

The right-wing “Birthers” are just as whacked as the left-wing 9/11 conspiracy theorists who said George Bush planned or knew about the attacks. There are whacked nutjobs in both political wings.
There are plenty of legitimate reasons to get bent on what both George Bush and Barak Hussein Obama have done/doing. Congressional leaders have skated by unharmed on these distractions as well. They are more worthy of damning blame then either President. They write the bills. They spend the money. They wrote the laws and regulations that have led to our financial ruin.
Pelosi, Reid, Dodd, Franks, Spector, Snowe, McCain and their ilk are the real Albatrosses around America's neck.
Barak Obama is an inexperienced fool. Worse yet, he's a massive narcist that will never admit or recognize his ever apparent inexperience for this job. He foolishly handed the Stimulus bill to Nancy Pelosi to write and Dingy Harry Reid to tweek. That's why it failed. It was an abomination of gifts, theft, and pork. That's why we are broke and have nothing to show for 3 Trillion dollars wasted. Obama will get full credit or blame for the outcome.
It is Barak Obama and a Democrat controlled congress that have laid the foundation for an insolvent U.S. government. It's far past the time that we start having a National discussion, on the end of the Greenback.
(for liberals;…”Greenback” is another name or term for the U.S. dollar.)
At this present time, the U.S. government has debt and promised liabilities approaching 100 TRILLION dollars. ( NOTE *** Don't make Trillion out to be a small number. It's not.) This is unpayable. Our children and grandchildren will be born into crushing debt, which will create massive poverty. For the first time in American history, this generation of Americans and it's government officials, has left a much bleaker future for the next generations. For that reason alone, we citizens, both Republican, Democrat, and Independants, must purge the arrogent slobs from congress. Vote all incumbants out. Demand term limits. Try to correct our collective mistake.
And then go after the real thieves like Franks, Dodd, Reid, Pelosi, Franklin Raines, Tim Geithner, and all other corrupt officials, with every legal authority available. Strip THEM of their wealth, burn their homes to the ground, confiscate all their foreign holdings, and then jail them for life.
Bernie Madoff went to prison for a 50 Billion dollar Ponzi scheme. What is Social Security?
It's a 50 TRILLION dollar Ponzi scheme. Wake up folks.
Whether we are white, black, asian or hispanic Americans, we all have one thing in common.
Whether we are politically left, right, or centrist, we all have one thing in common.
You will find out what your common factor is, when we are all suffering in extreme poverty caused by a collapse of the American dollar. We will all suffer in a collapsed economic system, that ends with a failed “Banana Republic” State. If the projected deficits for Obama's administration are correct, it's GAME OVER.
Of course, I'm not betting on my fellow citizens to “come together” and fix the problem, I'm simply buying Gold and planning my escape.
That's real “Change” you can sink your teeth into as you hunt for food.

How long do you plan to keep repeating nonsense that has been repeatedly disproven?
Long form isn't even available in Hawaii. Originals are never released, pursuant to state law. What he released has been authenticated and is sufficient for all purposes that a birth certificate is needed for.
You're insincere and not nearly creative enough to be interesting.

First, fascism is a type of socialism. Kinda like the way chiropractic derives from osteopathy, y'know? Study up on the early 20th Century and you'll see that all the fascists – like all the communists of the 19th Century – started out their political lives in the sewage of the socialist “mainstream.”
And like white blood cells crowding out the visual field in a urine specimen drawn from a patient with a raging bladder infection, the instances and ways in which our present Boot-On-Your-Neck Party “Malevolent Jobholder” coterie violates the Constitution is “too numerous to count” (TNTC).
The standing joke is that the only amendment of the Bill of Rights they don't violate every day – as a matter of policy – is the Third, and that's only because neither Republicans nor Democrats can figure out any way to squeeze as much graft out of quartering soldiers in people's houses in times of peace as they can from their “contributors” interested in building and maintaining military posts.

Why would there be birth announcements in TWO different newspapers in August 3 and 4, 1961?
Why would his eighteen year-old mother (at the time) put in so much effort (right after birth) to run around concocting a document in 1961 which will favor her son’s presidential aspirations in 2008, forty-seven years later?
Did this ordinary eighteen year ols girl in 1961 know that her son (black as he was in 1961) will grow up to become president?
Is that why the president’s mother had to arrange to put in place everything he would need to succeed?
How many people were in on this conspiracy?
Why would this eighteen year old try to forge a birth document when she was already American and therefore by birth right her son too?
If all these people wanted to fabricate birth records then they must have picked the hardest place to do so.

Jeez, that might really be his name. If he didn’t change it back to “Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.” after Lolo Soetoro legally adopted him as a child in Indonesia and then he was shuffled back into the care of his maternal grandmother in Hawaii so his mom and Daddy #2 could go on with their lives without being encumbered by him….
Boy, the more I learn about your colleague, steve, the more convinced I’m becoming that those records he’s “sealed” would kill his political career Dead Right There (DRT), like a – figurative, stevie, figurative! – bullet right to the brain.
But what a “red diaper” friggin’ socialist he really is. Sucked it up every minute of every day of his little life.
When he wasn’t studying the Qu’uran in Arabic, prostrating himself in the direction of Mecca, and “chooming” up dope like Spicoli.

The political “spectrum” upon which you are relying is a false construct. More reliable is the Nolan diagram (though I've had to put up with Jerry Pournelle touting his earlier chart, and which I do not credit as terribly useful).
Look into Dr. Nolan's analysis of authoritarians, and you'll be able to better understand how it is that the putative “difference” between communists, fascists, and similar crazed socialists is really no difference at all.
And I'm not going into a “standing joke” that's been around since I was in grade school. No need, you silly ass.

The essential questions are these: Do Americans have the right to demand President Obama to show that he is constitutionally qualified to be POTUS? (so far there were no officials who have come out to declare that President Obama is indeed a 'Natural Born Citizen'.) The only one who can do that is President Obama himself. Now the Birth Certificate issue have entered mainstream media after over a year of bubbling in the internet blogsphere. This issue is not going away and these constant debates can only distract the proper functioning of government.
The next big question is: 'why the Presdident is not willing to release his long form birth certificate to prove that he is indeed 'Natural Born Citizen'? This will surely killed the birthers movement once and for all.
Of course Presdient Obama might be faced with a big dilemma, if his birth certificates can not prove that he is a 'Natural Born Citizen’, thus not qualified to be POTUS, then we do have a constitutional crisis on our hands. Is that why President Obama is so hesitante to show his Birth Certificate and continuously figting the numerous court cases.
The birthers can not prove that Presdient Obama is not a ‘Natural Born Citizen’, only President Obama himself can do that, and yet he is unwilling to do it. The birthers can only question him and the questioning is getting louder and louder.
For the next election, the national parties should first demand proof of 'Natural Born Citizen' from candidates before puting their names on the ballot to avoid the current mess.

Oh, the studies and analyses correctly designating fascism as a subtype of socialism long antedate Jonah's very recent Liberal Fascism. Consider, for example, von Mises' seminal Socialism (1922) and literally hundreds of other works. Ever read von Hayek's The Road to Serfdom (1944) and his dedication “To the socialists of all parties,” sarcoid?
I've long noted that socialists – “Liberals,” progressives, fascists, National Socialists, nominal “Democrats,” what-have-you – really know very, very little about the history and theory of their own brand of vicious statist thuggery. The mercantilists who call themselves “Republicans” nowadays are similarly ignorant, and cruise along in the fat, dumb, happy supposition that they're conservatives.
They're not, of course. But that's neither here nor there, is it?

Wrong again. I've answered many, many of these stupid birther posts with objective fact and citations to authority. Read the thread, read other threads on this site. But when someone asks irrelevant questions (kindergarten records) and asks for things that have been released AND are irrelevant, then there's no need to pretend that I'm dealing with someone who is sincere.
And I am sure you are familiar with the argument style of reductio ad absurdum. I believe my list of essentials made the point I intended to make then.
And you're making my point now. You talk about secrecy and attorneys' fees, but the articles on this very site de-bunk all that. Obama has released everything he needs to. You're just a conspiracy theorist. And, given this set of circumstances, we all know why you are espousing a belief in this one, and it's not because he's a Democrat.
Don't stick up for your little brother if you don't know how to fight either.

Okay.
(1) The governor of Hawaii is a Republican. Republicans (ever since Lincoln) have proven to be inveterate liars.
(2) The “state officials” are bureaucrats. They're very carefully not lying. They're not telling the whole truth, either. They're covering their asses like fan-dancers, 'cause this thing has “Career Death” in big, red letters all over it.
(3) The hospital officials are covering their asses, too. Not lying, just stonewalling like Organization Todt. Again, “Career Death” situation.
(4) Crash Test Johnnie and his staff are Republicans. See (1) above. Their motto (as always with regard to their “bipartisan” colleagues) is “Go along to get along.”
(5) The Certification of Live Birth images are quite obviously doctored. Not only is the document from which they've allegedly been scanned not a “birth certificate,” but nobody outside the Obama campaign (probably Jay McKinnon, who describes himself as a “Department of Homeland Security-trained document specialist,” cobbled it together) and the J-school jerkwads at FactCheck can claim to have ever seen the damned thing. If it in fact exists as a for-real, signed and sealed legal document, where the hell is it?
(6) I don't give a damn about the “travel ban” to Pakistan. If such a ban had been in effect at the time Barry made his hegira, though, wouldn't it have been nice for him to have an Indonesian passport naming him “Barry Soetoro,” though?
(7) On the “conspiracy” aspect…. Well, I dunno. What made me believe in “this conspiracy nonsense” back in '72, when all the Republicans were chanting “Four More Years! Four More Years!” and I was yelling back: “More like ten to twenty! More like ten to twenty!”?

Welcome to the battle comrades. We have been at it for a week on the original thread. You are going to hear the same nonsense over and over. No matter how many times you correct mistakes and lies they will come back with the same bs. Why don't they listen to facts and reason? If you hammer them for long enough they will crack and start spewing the hate and racism behind this after-birther movement. Push them a little harder and they will tell you how they want to kill our President. They may call themselves conservatives or libertarians but what we are really dealing with is white-supremacists, anti-government and who knows what other groups.

Not really so, smokey. That “freedom to blog” comes whether or not people like you or me ever swear that oath. It's in the nature of our lawful government. Those of us who put in time in uniform do it for our own reasons, and the “civilians” don't really owe us anything that isn't in the regulations and statutes under which we served.

Hey, I'm glad you like it, stevie. It gets across the point about their qualifications (or the lack thereof) to have evaluated that putative COLB when they got to group-grope it for the camera back in June 2008.
What I prefer, stevie, is that such people as might be claiming to confirm the validity of a legal document be trained and experienced in the examination of such materials.
Kinda like the way I prefer the surgeon about to remove my wife's cataracted lens and implant a plastic replacement in the capsule be appropriately board-certified as an ophthalmologist, and be happy to show me the framed proof of all those courses he's taken and put up on the “I Love Me” wall in his consulting room.

Hey caps lock is persuasive. So you should save it for when you don't already have the argument sewn up.
To make my debunk and your slam-dunk complete, please post a link that proves your point.
Meanwhile I'll be over here in reality.
While you're looking for that link, consider this:
A pregnant Mexican woman named Maria Sanchez and her distraught husband Miguel slip past a vigilante border patrol unit that is busily shooting at tin cans. She collapses just on the U.S. side of the border and gives birth to a baby boy. What will they name him?
“Democrat.” Know why? Because anyone born on U.S. soil is a natural born citizen, eligible to vote or be elected President. That's one reason Republicans are so eager to keep Mexican immigrants out. Their kids become citizens and insist on being educated (and have the gall to want to be allowed to purchase discount lunches in some cases!) in our schools.
This is probably boring you. Where's that link, so you can finish pwning me?

President Obama equals President Bush.
ex-President Bush paid off the Colonel who dishonorably discharged Bush from the National Guard. Bush knew he couldn't become president if anyone knew his cocaine habit made him go AWOL. Those National Guard records went “magically missing.”
Obama didn't shower disdain on American troops by giving American troops a cocaine covered middle finger, but Obama did have himself born in Kenya. That's just a bad in my books. Bush wouldn't admit he was a draft-dodging pretty boy who used his connections to make a mockery of Americans who fought in Vietnam. And Obama won't admit he was born in Kenya.
In both cases, Records were tampered with. There are only 3 people I would trust as President at this point.
1. Hillary Clinton (That would allow Bill to rule from behind the throne)
2. Sarah Palin (she's dumb, but dumb in an American way. I'd rather have a dumb American in charge than a smart Kenyan)
3. Arnold Schwarzenegger (I know he was born in Europe, but that's totally different than being born in Kenya)

I must say, Pete, if the birthers are white supremacists then they apologize to white people, because they've certainly done themselves and other whites no favors by the way they've acquitted themselves here.
They should take a page from The Daily Show guest who said Michael Richards should apologize to racists for his bizarre rant during a stand-up routine.
Speaking of which, I think I'll go check out some Richard Pryor with a friend in the living room. See you all later.

If you can't find evidence, they destroyed it. Who's they? You know, “them.” The ones that did it.

No cataracts yet, stevie. When I look into her eyes, I look deeply into her eyes. Ever use an ophthalmoscope, kid?
But she had an MI about six years ago. I already knew the cardiologists who catheterized her coronary arteries and performed balloon angioplasty on her (I'd been referring patients to them for about twenty years), so I didn't have to insist on seeing their bona fides.
But I figured cataract surgery was something you could understand, stevie. My bad.
And you've never seen an “I Love Me” wall? You say you're a lawyer and you keep your sheepskin “in [your] house, still rolled up,” eh? Hm…. Considering how physicians in general – a “prey species” – tend to feel about lawyers (as predators), I feel no comment is required.
But if your clients are as glossy-eyed and gullible as you plainly are, stevie, to be sucked into your abject Obamamania, I suppose they deserve whatever they get of you.
And knowing now that you're an attorney (or, at least, that you claim to be an attorney, and why should I doubt you?) makes it easier to understand your susceptibility with regard to Barry Soetoro. Professional courtesy and all that.

Bush hates McCain and Hillary – so he chose Obama to take his place. That is fact. You cannot dispute it. In a future post I will give all the links to all the YouTube videos that prove what I'm writing.
We so-called 'birthers” are patriots who understood too late that we were betrayed by Bush and Cheney. All we are doing now is trying to rectify the problem (albeit a little late) by ensuring Obama doesn't get away with the same type stuff we let Bush get away with.

1. why do you believe the republican governor of hawaii is lying?
2. why do you believe other state officials are lying?
3. why do you believe hospital officials are lying?
4. why do you believe mccain and his staff — including running mate palin — are lying?
Questions 1 – 4 all assume that these people are lying. Loaded questions like this are flawed
from the beginning.
5. why do you not believe the birth certificate you've seen is legitimate?
There are, in fact, 2 types of birth records available from that era in Hawaii. This is due to the
facts that Hawaii was a newer state at the time, the geographic location of the islands
to other countries & their territories & the difficulty in reaching all the residents of the
Hawaiian Islands. The COLB provided by Obama is not even proof enough of birth in
Hawaii to qualify for programs intended to promote land ownership by native born Hawaiians.
For this, you must have the “Long Form” Birth Certificate. This is a very different document
than a Certificate Of Live Birth.
Also, it is redundant but still bears repeating, a simple release of the BC would dismiss it all.
6. why do you believe the lie about a non existent travel ban to Pakistan?
Please feel free to post information re: Pakistan travel/passport law from circa 1981.
I personally must admit that I have not looked for it myself. However, I do have a few Paki
friends. I will ask them for myself.
7. why do you believe this conspiracy nonsense?
I am not, never have been nor plan on being a conspiracy theorist. That said, I'm sure some of
it is inflated by wackos but I believe the bulk of it all. The part that bothers me most is when
people throw the “racist” card around like a Frisbee. In fact, these accusations are racially
based. Obama & others want to cite MLK's dream & are not really paying attention to it. He
asked that we judge a man by his character & not the color of his skin. Read the election
exit polls. You'll find that 95% of the record number of black voters voted for Obama & 55%
of white voters voted for McCain. This one single stat answers who really is racially
motivated & making massively important decisions based on emotion & novelty rather than
intelligence & what's best for America (which is best for the world for the most part). It is
clear that the skin was judged & MLK's dream still has not been realized.
http://wizbangblog.com/content/2009/07/22/demog…
The whole thing is like girls being allowed in H.S. wrestling against boys. No matter what, the
boy cannot win. He either beat a girl up or got beat by a girl. McCain (or any other white)
candidate & their supporters would have been openly accused of racism for beating the first
black candidate w/ a serious chance. Can you imagine the race riots & public outcries. Just
look at the response to Henry Louis Gates, Jr being arrested in Cambridge, Mass.
The records that are being asked for are not unreasonable. You can joke all you want about
kindergarten records. But, if you think for a moment, that's when a child first enters the
gov't school system. The information provided tells a lot. By itself, it's insignificant.
Combined w/ all the other legal & generally public information being withheld/sealed at great
expense really is beyond suspicious. Myself & all other soldiers have to provide such
documents that are being asked for. As the Commander In Chief of the same military, this
should be a basic requirement.
As for sources, I do like WND. Also, refer to http://www.wallbuilders.com. While there, do a
search for “Keith Ellison”. After that, go to http://www.renewamerica.com. You'll also like
http://www.faithandfreedom.us. These & other similar sites are not conspiracy based. They will
however, help educate you on our national heritage & purpose. Nor are they based on
hate or intolerance. So, please save those accusations for somebody who is afraid of
them.

In one translation, de Vattel writes that “the natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens.”
This above quote from the article deals w/ it regardless of where Barry was born. Notice please the plural form of NATIVES, CITIZENS & PARENTS. Barak Sr. wasn't a citizen of America.

How about a little personal history for what is behind me being a “birther”
I read the “Warren Report” and I believe that Lee Harvey Oswald was a lone gunman.
I have never seen a flying saucer, even though I am a pilot and an air traffic control man.
I don’t believe that “Big Foot” exists.
I think Islamic terrorists took down the World Trade Center.
I don’t believe FEMA is planning to round up citizens and put them in concentration camps, and I don’t think swine flu is an international conspiracy.
The Lock Ness Monster is a fantasy.
I am certain that the Apollo mission actually went to the moon.
There are no more missing aircraft and ships in the so called “Bermuda Triangle” than in any other part of the earth with equivalent traffic.
After having reviewed the REAL science, I am convinced that Global Warming is a huge scam.
I have a PhD, and am in private practice as a psychotherapist, so more than likely I am not crazy.
I am a life time member of Mensa, so I am not stupid. Membership # 1061487
The guiding principles for my professional research for articles and books I write are the usual protocols of epistemology, scientific methodology, and rules of logic and the rules of evidence.

Even though they are AWOL from their state God forgives them. even though they offer bribes to mistresses family God forgives them. But not those dumb ass Dems. No they sin and God just does not consider forgiving them. And if over the course of 40 some odd years and many moves the birth certificate is lost. Well that is just another dumb ass Dem move.

So I know GOPers never makes mistakes or sin as do their counterpart Dems. They are clean fellows and ladies who get to talk to God and even though they commit adultery God forgives them. Even though they are AWOL from their state God forgives them. even though they offer bribes to mistresses family God forgives them. But not those dumb ass Dems. No they sin and God just does not consider forgiving them. And if over the course of 40 some odd years and many moves the birth certificate is lost. Well that is just another dumb ass Dem move. Don’t you tin hat guys ever give up. Go listen to Coast to Coast that is the place to discuss tin hat theories.
In your heart you are a racist plain and simple. Hate fills your soul. I feel sorry for you.

“The framers of the 14th Amendment thought about this,” explained Elizabeth Wydra, chief counsel for the Constitutional Accountability Center. “They wanted to make sure that the children of slaves who were brought here illegally, slaves who were brought into this country after the end of the slave trade, would be citizens.”
Uh no. The framers of the 14th were concerned over whether States would recognize newly emancipated slaves as citizens for purposes of Article IV, Section II under the civil rights nbill of 1866. Where did Elizabeth Wydra go to school?

All the “Birthers” and conspiracy theorists help me. By the way, have you seen that the Supreme Court sent back Orly Taitz's filings. They are full of error. She must make correction and refile.
Why would there be birth announcements in TWO different newspapers in August 3 and 4, 1961?
Why would his eighteen year-old mother (at the time) put in so much effort (right after birth) to run around concocting a document in 1961 which will favor her son's presidential aspirations in 2008, forty-seven years later?
Did this ordinary eighteen year ols girl in 1961 know that her son (black as he was in 1961) will grow up to become president?
Is that why the president's mother had to arrange to put in place everything he would need to succeed?
How many people were in on this conspiracy?
Why would this eighteen year old try to forge a birth document when she was already American and therefore by birth right her son too?
If all these people wanted to fabricate birth records then they must have picked the hardest place to do so.

To all the non-Birthers here: stop wasting your time. There is NO evidence that will ever convince these people. They are essentially making a religious argument: the conclusion was decided first, for highly emotional reasons that will never be re-considered. They don't care that their facts are false and their reasoning is nutty. Anything that supports the pre-made conclusion must be true. The overwhelming sea of evidence to the contrary is automatically negated: they won't hear anything they don't want to. This is not about facts.
They've been fed a lot of angry lies and told that it makes them special.
Even the most intellectual-sounding arguments, full of weird twists on cherry-picked, black-sheep citations and total fabrications written in big legal words, are a dead giveaway. They keep holding up the word “objective”. But an objective investigation lays out *all* the data and follows where it leads. Even the best Birther arguments are carefully structured like a long flow chart with every box pointing to the same conclusion. The sea of contrary data is omitted or denied as just part of the big conspiracy.
Please, let them go tire themselves out. In a way, it's very convenient. It's like the Republican party has a built-in rubber room where they can all keep themselves company.

Don’t look at who he is (or even who he says he is; remember, he’s fan-dancing to cover his own ass – and who could blame him?), but at what he reports.

Why do you think these self-styled “professional document examiners” are more authoritative than those at the State Department, the Federal Elections Commision, the Hawaii Department of Health, and the Supreme Court?
I know the answer. You are deciding whether things are true or false based on how they make you feel, not critical thinking. So you have some utterly preposterous conspiracy-theory reason that negates all the evidence you don't like. This leaves only the evidence you do like.
This is why nobody takes the Birthers seriously, except those with a deep emotional need to believe that they are the chosen few who can see through the Big Conspiracy.

The Certification of Live Birth that was published on AKA OBAMA’s campaign web site is not a Birth Certificate. It is easy to tell the difference between the two types of documents. It is very likely that the COLB used by AKA OBAMA’s campaign is a fraudulent document. Several forensic document examiners have carefully scrutinized the COLB and declared it suspicious or an obvious forgery. The best evidence presented so far is from Ron Polarik, PhD.
Dr. Polarik writes: “There are laws on the books in Hawaii and the Federal Statutes that clearly spell out exactly what constitutes forgery, and in both Hawaii State Law and the Federal Statutes, the act of altering an official government document — even if it is just a facsimile of that document — constitutes forgery. The bogus COLB that Obama created is also considered to be a “false identification document, a felony forgery.” Dr. Polarik’s evidence is preserved online. There is also a YouTube video summary of the evidence.
Forensic document examiner Sandra Ramsey Lines, a Former Federal Examiner with a long history of expert testimony in state and federal courts, has testified in an affidavit that states, in part:
After reviewing Dr. Polarik’s analysis, Sandra Lines says, “I can state with certainty that the COLB presented on the internet by the various groups, which include the “Daily Kos,” the Obama Campaign, “Factcheck.org” and others cannot be relied upon as genuine. Dr. Polarik raises issues concerning the COLB that I can affirm. Software such as Adobe Photoshop can produce complete images or alter images that appear to be genuine; therefore, any image offered on the internet cannot be relied upon as being a copy of the authentic document.” Sandra Ramsey Lines summary is posted at U. S. Law Blog.

Comment posted July 25, 2009 @ 12:03 pm
The problem for the butt-sucking Obamaphiles (“ll the non-Birthers here”) is that they're the ones who have “NO evidence” to support their blind-faith contention that Barry Soetoro (looks like he didn't legally change his name back to “Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.” after having been adopted by Lolo Soetoro as a child) is lawfully qualified to have run for or to hold the office of President of these United States.
And knew it long before he announced his candidacy for that office, meaning that among his other criminal offenses, he's pretty much sewed up the issue of criminal mens rea with regard to felony violation of a boatload of federal campaign laws, not to mention the precipitation of the most spectacular constitutional crisis since “old Clay Whig” Abe Lincoln refused to remove his tax collectors from a tariff duty station smack in the middle of a foreign country's major seaport.
And this thing just will not “go away” as the Obamaphiles would like. Even the National Socialists' captive drive-by media organs are reporting on it. Associated Press gave up trying to ignore it to death, and slammed together a hack job that got published in newspapers nationwide yesterday.
The arbiters on this Web site won't allow me to post a link directly to the article. Use a search engine and enter “Associated Press” and “David Crary” and “Doubters” to locate it online. It'll come up.
Unless, of course, the Obamaphiles have scrubbed it already, the way they're sending everything on the Web pertinent to their Mombasa Messiah's “birth certificate” embarrassment down the Memory Hole.

Comment posted July 25, 2009 @ 12:05 pm
OK, let me explain what happened one more time. Here's the timeline.
1. This all started when Karl Rove concocted a plan to hide documents so people wouldn't know Bush was a cocaine snorting draft-dodger who went AWOL during the Vietnam War.
2. Bush has blood feuds with both John McCain and Hillary Clinton. But Bush's chosen successor (Rudolf Guliani) flames out in the Republican primary. So Bush decides to put all his Saudi money behind Barack Obama.
3. Rove uses the same team he used to destroy Bush's National Guard records. That team flies to Hawaii and makes it look like Obama was born in Hawaii (not Kenya)
4. Using his Saudi connections, Bush raises money among shadowy radical Muslim groups in the middle east. This money is turned over to Dick Cheney.
5. Cheney uses the money to destroy Hillary's chances in the Democratic Primaries. He tries to do the same to McCain. For a while it looks like Cheney will fail. But then in a master-stroke, Cheney convinces key members of the McCain campaign team to draft Palin as the VP candidate. This finally destroys McCain's chances.
6. Now that McCain and Hillary are out of the picture and there is a cover-up of Obama's birth records, the way is clear for Obama to become President.
7. Since Obama is so beholden to Bush, Cheney and Bush, he is their puppet. Obama knows if he tries to prosecute Bush or Cheney for torture, they will release the truth about Obama's birth.
If you want a more detailed analysis, just google the phrase “Bush, Cheney, Obama torture conspiracy”

Post that former Presidents are joining the birther movement. People will think you're talking about POTUS but you could just be referring to former presidents of the KKK.
The zip lock bag lady will repeat this as fact. Emails will arrive in everyone’s inbox with this “fact”. People will hit “forward” and it will spread like a virus. And within a few hours, hundreds will be posting this “fact” under thousands of user names all over the net.
Next week, Liz Cheney will go on Larry King and dance around the question and the birthers will see that as definitive proof. It will be posted on hundreds of anti-Obama web sites. It will be used as proof in forums all over the internet. Even after it was been disproved, it will still be seen as gospel to many.
I’ll be arguing with someone on this very site about; If President Reagan was still alive, would he join with the other Presidents demanding President Obama release his extra long birth certificate (not the forged one).
Maybe throw in Barry Soetoro is President Obama “real” name in the same email.

I'm getting it from a top offical of the federal government of Nigeria. I'm solicating your help because the documents are in the possession of the last military regime. Please note that the transaction is 100% safe.

I responded to the post I read. Which was HIS post. If I were to say I hate all Black Assholes, and does your black skin make your smart I would never get away with that! It would be assumed that I thought more Blacks were assholes then white.
To say I hate all assholes, would be a general statement. Or you could even say I hate all racist.
But to say that he hates all white assholes is to give the “impression” that he feels whites are disproportionately racist, and this simply is not true. To not address the fact that racism exist in every race is to be dishonest. We all deal with assumptions and stereotypes based on our color. It should not be allowed from any race. It is time to address ignorant people as ignorant people, regardless of color.
Yes there are many post on here that I would find offensive if I were a person off color, but his comment was no less offensive to me. We all need to be more careful about how we speak and calibrate our words much more carefully.

Doesn't matter whether they're “actual experts” or not, Phil. Forget their credentials – remember, they're not providing sworn attestations – and look at what they report.
When you're taking something into court, or asking people to take your word for a statement without going into grinding detail, identification and certifications of expertise are needed. These guys didn't have to identify themselves. They just laid out their findings with excruciating thoroughness, saying: “This is what I've spotted, how I spotted it, how this kind of stuff can and does happen, and why you should think that Barry's 'birth certificate' images are as phoney as a three-dollar bill.”
After that kind of information is presented, Barry Soetoro looks like a complete friggin' criminal, and the Obamaphiles had best join in the public clamor to hae him get that alleged COLB in front of some “actual experts” who can solidly certify that those crappy images are not fraudulent fabrications from beginning to end.
Doesn't matter if “the 'experts' on the Birther's side are LYING IDIOTS,” Phil. If what they report is FACT (you stupid putz), Barry Soetoro and/or somebody in the Obama campaign is going to be receiving his mail for the rest of his life in someplace like Marion, Ohio.

What they're saying, you silly dork, is that the “grainy JPEGs” (you're a Macintosh user, right?) are cobbled-together Frankenstein's monsters that show the fingerprints of fraudulence all over 'em.
What I'm saying is that your Mombasa Messiah really needs to put that real, live, print-on-paper, signed and sealed COLB supposedly issued to him by the state of Hawaii in 2007 in front of a panel of impartial experts (with great credentials and not in the employ of the federal government Barry presently unlawfully commands) who are able to scrupulously examine that piece of paper, determine its validity, contents, and provenance, and swear under oath really is the legal document that Barry and his fellow lying ACORN assholes had said it was in June 2008.

Did you ever wonder why the RNC and John McCain stayed totally silent in 2008 and still is silent to this day regarding Obama's Natural Born Citizenship issues? The answer.
McCain and the RNC were part of the big cover up last year when three non-natural born citizens, including the two major parties, were on the ballot for President for the first time in U.S. history. McCain and the RNC are now in CYA mode to cover up how they allowed Obama to get away with his fraud since they were covering up for their own candidate, McCain. McCain and the RNC put his own political ambitions and party politics above the Constitution and the Country. McCain did not put Country First last year. He is an example of a hero during is military service becoming corrupt and self serving after too many years in Washington DC.

For the record, “I'm not a birther”, I'm a constitutionalist and frankly while it would be good to have the definitive proof of where he was born, it's truly irrelevant to the issue.
The state of Hawaii, has never validated the images we've been shown, nor have they ever confirmed the fact that he was actually born in Hawaii, they have skirted around the issue with only vague references to their state laws and policies and have only ever confirmed that:
a. They do have the original Cert on file.
b. The cert “they have on file” is a valid cert.
c. They aren't treating his cert any different than they would any one else's
d. that if they issued a copy of a cert to someone it would “look like” the one we were shown.
(just so everyone is clear on this)
The real issue is Obama's father was a foreign national, not an immigrant as some would have people believe, he was merely a student who came here for schooling. I can point to several historical quotes, references and even opinions from the SCOTUS That uphold the definition of “Natural Born Citizen” as used in article 2 sect 1 of the constitution which clearly show that simply being born on US soil does not constitute “Natural Born Citizen” status.
I think that these lawyers who rush to build a case and overlook the very fabric of the constitution do a disservice to it, to the very core of this nation, and to the intent of the founding Fathers..
The reason most of these cases are being dismissed on standing is because the focus is not placed on the one relevant factor in the entire issue, prior to the inaug there may have been some legal recourse for “certain” people involved in the issue, however since the inaug, the Constitution allows for only “ONE” course of action and that course is not via the SCOTUS or any other lower court, only congress can give the authority to a court to “hear and rule” on the case on it's merits and that would be one of “Quo Warranto”.
Another problem that we face in this issue is that too many people want to “interchange” the terms “Citizen of the US” and “Natural Born Citizen of the US” these are two distinctly different things and people pander to ignorance by claiming they are one in the same.
Chief Justice Marshall's opinion on the separate effects of the articles of the constitution clearly states that if two articles or amendments are meant to mean the same thing, there would be no need for one or the other of the two (condensed version of course)
from at least 1874 to 1939 the SCOTUS has upheld the definition of a “Natural Born Citizen” as described in Vattel's “Law of Nations” (Vattel's, Law of Nations, Book 1, Chapter 19, part 212) and as intended by the founding fathers, the SCOTUS has also stated that outside of that definition, there is some doubt as to whether a person born under any other circumstances is in fact a “Natural Born Citizen” or not.
# In 1874, in the Minor v. Happersett case, the Supreme Court affirmed the definition of natural born citizen which had appeared in the 1797 English translation of Vattel's Law of Nations:
…it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners. Some authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their parents. As to this class there have been doubts, but never as to the first. (Minor v. Happersett, 1874)
# In Minor v. Happersett, the Supreme Court expressed “doubts” regarding the citizenship of U.S.-born children whose parents were not U.S. citizens. In Wong Kim Ark, 1898, the Supreme Court examined these “doubts”, but did not render any decision or ruling pertaining to natural born citizenship. The Court ruled that Mr. Ark was a citizen; it did not rule that he was a natural born citizen. To date, the Supreme Court has never answered the question as to whether natural born citizenship extends to children of non-citizen parents.
Further:
The Supreme Court has, on occasion, used the word “citizen” in reference to certain individuals who were either not born in the United States or not born of U.S.-citizen parents. Such individuals were citizens by law or by naturalization, but the Supreme Court has never referred to them as “natural born citizens”. In those few cases in which the Supreme Court has declared an individual to be a “natural born citizen”, the individual was always U.S.-born to U.S.-citizen parents. For example, in Perkins v. Elg (1939), Miss Elg was declared to be a natural born citizen. She was born in the United States and, when she was born, both of her parents were naturalized U.S. citizens.
These doubts need to be put to rest, it's a simple as that..
Thanks
Bill

So the best evidence you have is the possibility that the document may be false, not that it is? Courts do not deal in hypotheticals, certainly not when it involves prima facie self authenticating documents like a birth certificate.
In fact, President Obama has made the best and only available evidence freely available to all through the photos and scans of his Certification of Live Birth, Hawaii’s only and official Birth Certificate which shows him born on US soil, just as the birth announcements in the Honolulu newspapers reflect.
Which is why the latest conspiracy theory is not that the COLB does not show him born on US soil but rather that this COLB was fraudulently entered, only 4 days after his birth.
And thus the case continues to crumble and any suggestions that President Obama committed fraud seems to be based on lack of evidence rather than on positive evidence.

Since Obama won't show his real birth certificate (versus the Certificate of Live Birth
which is patently inadequate since the Certificate no. is blanked out and the document itself states that any alterations render it void) and will not show his school records and his selective service records appear to have been inserted into files (in Chicago) long after their purported dates, why can't we see the baptismal record of this purported Christian. I'm 74 years old and still have my selective service registration, my original birth certificate and my baptismal record. Don't care about his race, just his citizenship.

You are wrong. Read the foreign service manual. Military bases in foreign countries are not considered U.S. soil. AND … regardless … the truth is that McCain was not born on the military base nor was he born in the Canal Zone. He was born in the hospital in the City of Colon, Panama. He was born under the flag of Panama, not the American flag. Check his birth certificate. His parents were citizens which is more than we can say for Obama, but McCain was not born on sovereign U.S. soil. That is why McCain and the RNC were covering up for him. That is why the Senate Resolution SR 511 was passed by the DEMS to give McCain cover in exchange for the promise of McCain and the RNC not to say anything about Obama's lack of Natural Born Citizenship.

Nope. As long as he's been “servicing” the Red Party's real constituencies – the banksters, the corporate clowns, that bunch – why should they go out of their way to violate the “gentlemen's agreement” that Socialist Party “B” has always had with Socialist Party “A”?

McCain and the RNC rolled the dice and figured first that Hillary would be the candidate, not Obama. And if it was Obama, McCain thought for sure he could beat this upstart, unknown, new Senator. Anyway, back in early 2008, McCain was under attack about his natural born citizenship with the Hollander v McCain lawsuit which was dismissed just like all the ones against Obama. You see you cannot sue a candidate. The have a first amendment to run. That is political free speech. But to be seated you need to eligible. And neither McCain nor Obama nor Calero were eligible under Article II of the U.S. Constitution. Neither of them were natural born citizens (NBC) of the U.S. to constitutional standards. So in early 2008 McCain and the RNC made a Faustian pack with the devil DEMs to get himself declared a NBC so he could make it through the primary season. For that SR 511, McCain and the RNC promised to keep quiet about Obama. McCain and the RNC sold out the Constitution and the country for the sake of his own political ambition and party power politics.

BTW, did everyone notice that birther Queen Orly Taitz is leaving the country from August 1st to August 24th according to her most recent court filing in Florida? What will they do without her?
Here's what it says in her filing on page 5:
Link to document:
http://www.scribd.com/full/17662380?access_key=…
Plaintiffs proposed (out of state) counsel Dr. Orly Taitz bas firm plans to be out of the Country in relation to long-standing commitments between August 1-24, 2009, so it is essential that a hearing on this TRO be set immediately. Plaintiffs proposed local counsel Inger Garcia-Armstrong would not be able effectively to advance Plaintiffs TRO and Preliminary Injunction request alone, as she has no history in this case or broader litigation.

So, in other words, you are saying that no black, hispanic, or asian american could ever be considered a “natural born citizen?” Wow. Please, please, please get all of your loony friends to take that argument to the American public!!!
However, please note that if you want to take it that route, let's try this path: America was Indian country before the white man invaded, killed them, and stole their land. So, unless you're a Native American, you white folk aren't “natural born citizens” either. That sounds just peachy!
BTW, it's funny how you nutters appreciate some foreigner's interpretation of the law – a french man's interpretation no less. I recall during the Sotomayor confirmation hearings that was a big no-no in our good ole' red, white, and blue American culture.
You're not a “birther” my a$$!

Well bill,
1. There is a raised official seal on the both the Certificate of Live Birth, and Birth Certificate.
2. A,B,C,D have been confirmed and validated.
3. Obama's mother is of what Nationality? Oh, a citizen of the USA …
Since Obama's mother never commited treason, nor renounced her USA Citizenship
You must be arguing that Obama's father was not a citizen of the USA, that it is a
requirement that both parents be citizens of the USA in order for their child to be a
natural born citizen of the USA, in addition to being born on USA Military, Embassy
grounds, a USA flagged Ship, or, US territorial soil.
Furthermore, Senator McCain and my son, Zack, have something in common.
Both were born on Military installations outside of the continental/territorial boundries
of the USA. Consequently, both only have a Certificate of Live Birth. That certificate allows for not only a SSN number, Drivers Licence and Passport but, a Top Secret Clearance as well. I argued in depth with Military and US/ Korean Counselate staff about not having a Birth Certificate only to be told it was not going to be issued. To Hawaii's and Obama's credit they actually have both certified documents …
To put a point on this, if and when Obama provides said documents the arguement will continue with claims of forgery, complicity and conspiracy. What is he to do have the State of Hawaii send a certified copy of birth to every US Citizen?
I appriciate the main body of your statement but it does not serve this issue well to first
shed doubt on the Hawaiian documentation that has, in fact, been born out of and validated by the very Rule of Law that you expand upon.
Your only argument, as I see it, is that by seeing a S -for plural- you have determined that BOTH PARENT(S) must be citizen(s) in order for a Natural Born citizen to become president.

There are only doubts if you are delusional enough to deny the facts being thrown in your face each and every day. President Obama was born in Hawaii. President Obama is a natural born citizen. President Obama is in the White House running the Unites States and will likely continue doing so until 2016. Learn to live with it, get some therapy if need be.

you're welcome Jim
“Do you know if any other POTUS had at least one parent who wasn't born on US soil?”
yes, I do
and
“How about a POTUS whose parent wasn't a citizen at the time of the birth of the future POTUS?”
yes, I do
It's funny that you would ask this particular question because the question came up earlier ina conversation about Barry's father being an immigrant (which he was not, but that's not inportant here) to which the person who asked me gave me a list of names of Past presidents whose parents were immigrants and or not citizens of the United states at the time the child was born, so I'll give you that list quoted from my reswponse to them about 2 hours ago.
Andrew Jackson born March 15, 1767 was eligible under article 2 sect one because he was a citizen at the time the Constitution was adopted, therefore he met the article 2 requirement to serve as president
Thomas Jefferson born April 13, 1743 The same
James Buchanan, Jr born April 23, 1791 to 2 American Citizens on US soil
Chester Alan Arthur born October 5, 1829(changed to 30 later) is suspected of having actually been born in canada.
A quote from the wiki:
There has long been speculation that the future president was actually born in Canada and that the family moved to Fairfield later. If Arthur had been born in Canada, a minority opinion is that he would not have been a natural-born citizen, even though his mother was a U.S. citizen, and would have been constitutionally ineligible to serve as vice president or president.
(personally, without proof to the contrary, I would have opposed Arthur's presidency on constitutional grounds.)
Wilson was born in Staunton, Virginia on December 28, 1856 to US Citizens as was Herbert Clark Hoover August 10, 1874 in West Branch, Iowa.
Thanks Jim.

Oh no! Get her back on the case! Her substitute counsel is the guy who's day job is being the mascot for the New Orleans Hornets. I totally fear that guy. He has a paralegal certification.
Well he's like two credits shy. But his uncle is a lawyer. So naturally he'd be a more stout opponent than Orly “a brick from the falling Berlin Wall hit me on the head as I escaped totalitarianism” Taitz.
Thanks for letting us know it's time to circle the wagons. Anybody know if Dershowitz is available to substitute into the case for our side, to sort of even out the legal talent on display?

“I can point to several historical quotes, references and even opinions from the SCOTUS That uphold the definition of “Natural Born Citizen” as used in article 2 sect 1 of the constitution which clearly show that simply being born on US soil does not constitute “Natural Born Citizen” status.”
If you can do all that, then why did you spend so much effort to write the nonsense that you wrote instead of providing us “historical quotes, references, and even opinions from the SCOTUS?” All we got was zero links to actual law or history in place of paragraph after paragraph of you proving that you either lack reading comprehension skills or honesty.

Hi John, a, b, c, and d have not been validated except as I outlined, now if you have proof to the contrary, I'll be happy to look at it, but every “quote” from the state of Hawaii's reps validate what I've stated, not what Obama supporters want us to believe..

* United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898): In this case, the majority of the Court held that a child born in U.S. territory to parents who were subjects of the emperor of China and who were not eligible for U.S. citizenship, but who had “a permanent domicile and residence in the United States, and are there carrying on business, and are not employed in any diplomatic or official capacity under the emperor of China” was a U.S. Citizen.
The Court stated that:
The constitution nowhere defines the meaning of these words [citizen and natural born citizen], either by way of inclusion or of exclusion, except in so far as this is done by the affirmative declaration that 'all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.'[16]
Since there was no definition of “natural born citizen” found in the constitution, the majority adopted the common law of England that was a carry over from feudal times.
The court ruled:
It thus clearly appears that by the law of England for the last three centuries, beginning before the settlement of this country, and continuing to the present day, aliens, while residing in the dominions possessed by the crown of England, were within the allegiance, the obedience, the faith or loyalty, the protection, the power, and the jurisdiction of the English sovereign; and therefore every child born in England of alien parents was a natural-born subject, unless the child of an ambassador or other diplomatic agent of a foreign state, or of an alien enemy in hostile occupation of the place where the child was born. III. The same rule was in force in all the English colonies upon this continent down to the time of the Declaration of Independence, and in the United States afterwards, and continued to prevail under the constitution as originally established.

The episode was called “Jerome vs. Marie-Luise: Can a U.S. Citizen be forced to pay Child Support Over the Ocean?”
You'll find, if you watch the show, that Judge Wapner had difficulty listening to Marie-Luise because she sounded like she was French and we hate the French.

sorry, couldn't resist, the fact is, the newest (chronologically) “legal” documents I've seen show his name to be Barry Obama, or Barry Soetoro, so I call him Barry… i do not recognize him as president outside of hypothetical discussions of the issues surrounding him and when I do refer to him as president, it is simply under that terminology or context.
That is of course until legal precedent proves my beliefs incorrect, then, I will acknowledge him as president.

There is a helluva lot of stuff in Barry Soetoro’s college and law school records he really, REALLY doesn’t want made public, just beginning with who paid for all that expensive education he got.
And the media – the so called “mainstream media” – was pretty much in Barry’s pocket from day one.

“Proof” here means objectively true, demonstrable evidence. This disqualifies World Net Daily and those emails from your aunt in Memphis.
We're waiting. Use your crack sleuthing ability to uncover the decades-old conspiracy that involves high-ranking state and federal government officials from both sides of the aisle.
Find what Bush's Justice Dept. twice failed to find when it ran background checks on Obama for his Senate run and Presdential run.
Find what the Senate failed to find before it put Obama on the Foreign Relations committee and told him our nation's tightly-held state secrets.

What you and all Birthers imply is that YOU personally have to be shown these documents, that won't be enough, then send them off for forensic studies that you will hint were tampered with or were unclear. You will not be satisfied…ever. You justify one president's presidency with the “Citizen at the time” clause then ignore it -and not really needed- for another president.
Obama clearly meets the Constitutional requrements to hold the Office of the President as written. You seem to pick and chose on a neo-con “I hate Obama” whim.

John,
i think yours backfired on you Sir.
“or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution”

basically, without that clause, we could not have had a president until a generation of folks were born who could meet the requirement.

Post them here. Don't post obvious fakes. We'll know. Your “copies” are photoshopped. We want originals.
But even if you weren't making that up, it still says nothing about the state law in effect in Hawaii. Each state has its own rules for these things. Tenth Amendment and all.
But you knew that. Your “research skills are just fine,” as you said above.

The Senate never had to opine about Obama. He was born in Hawaii.
Hawaii is a state in the U.S. No question about Obama's eligibility.
Just ask Chief Justice John Roberts. On Jan. 20, 2009 he had a chance to question Obama up close. Know what he said?
“Mr. President-elect, can you please place your hand on this Bible so we can get the Inauguration started?”

Explain the secrecy in not wanting to reveal his college transcripts. Why is there no birth certifcate that shows the doctors name etc. What about his passaport and adoption records by his step father. Why was he known by a different last name There is good reason for all the speculation. It also does not help that the media did not go after him the way they did McCain/Palin and Clinton and Bush. The media seems to have dismissed all the questions about who he is and where he came from. The media seems to want blind trust. We just want to know the media has done their homework.

Once again, bcs1BillMcGee, your arrogance is totally out of proportion to your demonstrated intellect.
You claim that Obama is ineligible based on the text of the Constitution. You didn't post a link.
Yet you expect us to believe that Bush's Justice Dept., which conducted background checks on Obama as part of its duties when he ran for Senate and President, would have missed such an obvious Constitutional issue as whether he is natural born by virtue of having only one parent be a citizen?
Bush spied on YOU. Do you think he missed this one?
How about McCain? His lawyers looked into the Berg suit and the other suits, as described by David Weigel on this very site. But he forgot to read the Constitution, apparently.
So did Hillary, even though she wanted to win so bad we all could taste it.
So did every single member of the GOP in Congress, even those who want publicity.
So did Sarah Palin, even though she has a thousand monkeys working at a thousand typewriters to draft her speeches.
See where I'm going with this?
Not only did you fail to post a link, you mischaracterized a basic tenet of our politics. You don't understand the most basic document in civics, but you deign to tell others “I hope you learned something from this little exchange.”

Oh no. Once again you demonstrate your lack of reading comprehension skills.
No one who wishes “to know whether Obama is legally qualified” has been marginalized, degraded, or otherwise roughly handled.
Those people have been politely referred to factcheck.org where they can see Obama’s birth certificate and get the information surrounding this non-issue for themselves. Read this thread and every other one at this site. Those posts have not been scrubbed. Mine are among them.
The people who repeatedly post lies get called out for doing so. I’m pleased to have done my share of calling out.
You may have failed to appreciate the difference. It’s not actually that subtle. Much less subtle than, say, the difference between a birth certificate and a certification of live birth.

DEFINITIVE TIMELINE OF OBAMA'S CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR
1. This all started when Karl Rove concocted a plan to hide documents so people wouldn't know Bush was a cocaine snorting draft-dodger who went AWOL during the Vietnam War.
2. Bush has blood feuds with both John McCain and Hillary Clinton. But Bush's chosen successor (Rudolf Guliani) flames out in the Republican primary. So Bush decides to put all his Saudi money behind Barack Obama.
3. Rove uses the same team he used to destroy Bush's National Guard records. That team flies to Hawaii and makes it look like Obama was born in Hawaii (not Kenya)
4. Using his Saudi connections, Bush raises money among shadowy radical Muslim groups in the middle east. This money is turned over to Dick Cheney.
5. Cheney uses the money to destroy Hillary's chances in the Democratic Primaries. He tries to do the same to McCain. For a while it looks like Cheney will fail. But then in a master-stroke, Cheney convinces key members of the McCain campaign team to draft Palin as the VP candidate. This finally destroys McCain's chances.
6. Now that McCain and Hillary are out of the picture and there is a cover-up of Obama's birth records, the way is clear for Obama to become President.
7. Since Obama is so beholden to Bush, Cheney and Bush, he is their puppet. Obama knows if he tries to prosecute Bush or Cheney for torture, they will release the truth about Obama's birth.
Everything in this post is proven fact! Don't even bother to disagree with this unless you can refute every point in the timeline.

Why does just asking make you mad? Last time I checked this was the USA. Simple questions require simple answers. People want to know everything especially about the person who is running our country. The insanity comes from not knowing and preceived efforts to keep things secret. Face it the media has gone over board in it's love and affection for this president. Every little detail of Palins life was trashed including her children. Bush has every grade he made researched. Clinton had every word scrutinized. McCain's records were scoured to the nub and he was war-hero. With this president, it seems, all his mis-steps are immediately dismissed and excuses are quickly made. I have never seen any of our presidents get handled with such kit gloves by the press.
Comment posted July 25, 2009 @ 7:25 pm
What people seem to have forgotten is that in the 19th Century, Congress was faced with a very similar situation in the Election of President Hayes. We can observe how Congress approached matters in those days, their reasoning and the outcome. For instance, Congress considered a bill in which the title of the President Elect could be challenged in Court, either the Supreme Court, or the Circuit Court if the Supreme Court lacked original jurisdiction. Senators strongly opposed this and argued that having the outcome of the elections decided by the judiciary was counter to the idea of the Founders, that the title of President could only be addressed by Congress via the 12th Amendment (the 20th Amendment did not exist yet) and that once a President was elected, his election was to last 4 years, even if errors were made as the decision to elect a President would be final and irrevocable.
What history shows is that when Congress had to deal with a similar situation as to whether or not a duly elected President's title could be tried. And they clearly show that
1. Congress is the final arbiter per 12th amendment and its decision is final, and irrevocable, even if later found to be in error.
2. There is no place for the judiciary to decide on Presidential election. This means that the use of Quo Warranto to try the title for Presidency is not provided for.
As to the meaning of natural born, I argue that it is for all practical purposes the same as native born. Anyone born on US soil, regardless of the status of their parents, is a natural/native born citizen, except for children of ambassadors, invading military and in earlier days children born to Indians not paying taxes.
I suggest “The Development of American Citizenship 1608-1870″ by James H. Kettner who explores in great details these topics.
——
Mr THURMAN: Again suppose the question is whether or not voters were intimidated thousands of them at a time which we hear so much of in regard to southern States where in the world would be the end of the testimony. When would you get it all taken. But here comes still another reason. This matter is to be submitted to the judge in the first place of the circuit court. That judge may be or may not be a judge appointed by the very man whose title to the seat is contested probably lie would not be and yet he might be because you would have to fix some place where the suit should be brought and at any rate while that suit is pending every vacancy on the bench of the Supreme Court which is ultimately to decide the case would be filled by the very man whose title to the office of President was contested. It seems to mo that these considerations abundantly show that the idea of contesting the office of Chief Magistrate of the United States in any court whatsoever is not to be entertained for a moment. I do not therefore agree with the Senator from Vermont that there can be any such contest. I do not think that the framers of the Constitution intended that the title of the persons declared in the joint assembly of the two houses to be President should remain in doubt for a single moment but that on the contrary from the time he was declared to be elected all men should respect his title for he was declared elected pursuant to the Constitution of the country. There might be error in deciding who was elected every body of men is liable to commit error courts are liable to commit error as well as congresses the decision may be in favor of the wrong man but the public safety and peace require that that decision when once made shall be final and irrevocable
Mr FRELINGHUYSEN It seems to me Mr President that there is one idea which the Senator from Ohio has entirely omitted which is conclusive upon this subject it certainly is to my mind I think the twelfth article of the amendments to the Constitution settles who has jurisdiction over this question. It does not do so in express terms but it does do so by necessary implication. It says that the President of the Senate is to open the certificates aud the votes which are then to be eouuted in the presence of the two houses. That by necessary implication to my mind gives the jurisdiction over this subject to the two houses and if the Constitution does give it to them we cannot by law give it to the judiciary of the country
Mr MORTON I would suggest to my friend further that the twelfth article of the amendments provides that if uo candidate receive a majority of all the electors appointed the House of Representatives shall immediately proceed to elect by States giving no interval of time
Mr FRELINGHUYSEN Certainly The whole frame work of the Constitution is repugnant to the idea of its being settled by the judiciary But while I have not made up my mind it docs not seem to me that the amendment suggested by the Senator from Vermont is at all subject to a like criticism .That proposition is to have a committee appointed who shall instanter if the thing is feasible. I do not know that it is consider the votes and if they report favorably on a vote it shall be accepted unless both houses reject it and if they report unfavorably it shall only be accepted on both houses voting for it the only effect of that committee being not to take the jurisdiction away from Congress but to change the rule of evidence it strikes me that it may be a precautionary measure of some value I do not know whether the Senator from Indiana has thought of that.

Repeatedly asking, and inserting distortions into your question, makes me frustrated.
Repeatedly asking, slipping in distortions and lies, and slurring the President's race or the nation of Kenya, all at the same time, ticks me off.
Doing all that at a time when we have two wars and a crippled economy, makes me mad.

Asking is not the problem. The problem (as with any recalcitrant child) is asking, being answered, forgetting that you were answered and asking again. Over and over and over.
I don't ever remember seeing Palin's birth certificate, or Hillary's for that matter. Bush had his military records redacted and/or classified. Obama at least explains his missteps– Bush pretended he never made them. And if you don't remember a president being handled with kid gloves, you forget everything that happened between 9/11 and the time the press finally realized Bush was feeding the Constitution to Cheney.
I don't know why I even bother, though. Find someone else from Hawaii and demand to see their birth certificate. If they don't slap you, the only thing they'll have to offer is a Certificate of Live Birth. Why? That's Hawaiian state policy.

Although Obama has had a first-class education that spanned 25 years, there is only a single document that has ever been released, the application for entrance to the Franciscus Assisi Primary School (next item) — and that document was discovered by independent investigators.
This is an important feature because Kindergarten records for original school entry would have contained the following:
1. Obama's REAL Birth Certificate.
2. An application with the following:
• His Legal name.
• Parents or Legal Guardians’ names.
• Date of Birth
• Place of Birth
• Vaccination Records (revealing a timeline to the place and DOB.)
Of the kindergarten children in that class only one record is missing, guess who? How likely is it that AKA Obama's missing record is a coincidence?
It also is important for two additional reasons:
A. The Department of Education does not “lose” the records of one particular student. (So, who paid whom what sum to make this record disappear?)
B. There would have been NO shameful low-test scores, NO embarrassing Equal Opportunity advancements, and NO trails of fraudulent funding to hide that could possibly “excuse” the quashing of public school Kindergarten entry records. For the rest of his life he attended very expensive private schools and has had his records legally sealed to deny the public his true life story.
This is different. Hawaii should be able to verify he attended their school since he is featured in class photographs. State and federal tax dollars paid for his initial year of education. Why is there no documentation?
This is the beginning of an intentionally erased life of a fraud and conman and it reeks of complicity by officials within the State of Hawaii’s Dept. of Health and Dept. of Education.” Hat tip to Don Fredrick at http://www.colony14.net

Let me be the first honest poster on this thread.
I don't care where Obama was born. The law stipulating where Presidents can and cannot be born is antiquated and senseless.
However, I am willing to use this senseless law to achieve a political goal. I may not care that Obama was born in Kenya, but I'm happy to use this fact to force the man out of office.
Obama is just an extension of the BushCheney dictatorship we have been living under these last 8 years. Supporting Obama politically is akin to supporting Bush/Cheney.
Since I am opposed to Bush/Cheney, I am opposed to Obama. We so called “Birthers” are just trying to find a way to stop the reign of incompetent government that has been inflicted on America by Bush/Cheney and their pawn Obama.
If you hate Bush/Cheney, then you must also hate Obama. Demanding that Obama resign because he was born in Kenya is just another way of saying how much you hate Bush/Cheney.

Of course if you have access to some of his never-released and always legally-contested documents I'm sure those would be of great interest. Be sure to tell everyone how you came into possession of them – the court may wish to know (and don't forget, there are penalties for perjury).

One thing I just love about these birthers is that they want clear, irrefutable proof beyond a shadow of a doubt that Obama is a U.S. citizen, but look at the kinds of things they cite as their own evidence:
Liddy says that Obama's step-grandmother (of all people) gave a “sworn statement” that she witnessed him being born in Kenya. Okay, where is this “sworn statement” and who has it? Who took this statement to even begin with? And seriously, is the woman (if she even exists) of sound mind? For all I know, she's 90 years old, senile, witnessed dozens of births in her lifetime and wouldn't know her step-grandson from the next child.
On another website I read someone give this as “clear evidence” of a forgery of Obama's Hawaiian birth certificate: The certificate lists his father's race as “African.” But in the 1960's *every* American (apparently without a single exception among hundreds of millions of people) referred to blacks as “Negros.” THIS was his evidence of a forgery.
Just incredible. I think they all need to climb back up on the roof and add another layer of tin foil on their hats to enhance the signal. All that's coming through now is static.

Here's a little fact for all you birthers:
President Obama is sitting in the White House running the United States of America RIGHT NOW!
And, guess what, he will be until at least 2012, and, thanks to the idiocy you are all engaging in (which is making a complete and total mockery out of the Republican Party) President Obama will be sitting in the White House running the United States of America until 2016.
Oh, and he will have a House and Senate controlled by the Dems with a more than comfortable margin after the mid-term elections, and he will be able to get ALL of his programs through!
On behalf of all liberal, elitist, progressives in America, I say thank you birthers. Thank you for insuring that the Republican Party will not win another election for a long, long, long, long time. We could not have done it without you!

Interesting historical quotes, but hardly applicable to the instance at hand. What Congress has done is allow a man who may not be Constitutionally eligible to have his EC results “certified” but they did not follow the requisite procedure in the Constitution. That's one (but only one) of the points in the Kerchner et al v. Onama et al action.
Also, if the man is not able to demonstrate that he IS Constitutionally eligible then he is ineligible to hold the office and ANY Congregational actions become moot (especially those that were fundamentally flawed anyway). You seem to be saying that the laws of the country do not matter even if they are broken and having an ineligible man in the Oval Office is “neat” because you voted for him. Certainly that's one possibility.
Another is that Congress does not overrule the Constitution – that is only done by the Constitutional Amendment process. Presently, the eligibility requirements are as specified in that document and Congress is not free to break its contract with us but must follow the Constitution. So must Mr. Obama – and he has yet to do that.
As for Quo Warranto, there certainly IS a legal provision for it … check DC statute 3501 and following. I doubt that's even needed in this case, though.

Klein may be the king of the dung heap at CNN, but this story is far from dead.
The simple fact, that Klein, Chris Matthews, Brian Williams, John Stewart and even The New York Times, are addressing the eligibility issue on a daily basis now is clear evidence that the eligibility question is never, ever, going to go away. It will dog Obama until he goes back to Chicago — or releases his bona fides.
The Times writes, “Advocates of the issue, who are sometimes called Birthers, have succeeded in calling attention to themselves through frequent calls to talk radio shows, e-mail messages to news organizations and a videotaped question at a Congressional town hall. The Associated Press said that Obama’s citizenship status had been one of the most popular topics for the wire service’s ‘Ask AP’ column.”
A few months ago, Birthers numbered in the hundreds. Now, they number in the millions. Millions of Americans are demanding — “Obama, show us the birth certificate”

June 17, 1972: Five men, one of whom says he used to work for the CIA, are arrested at 2:30 a.m. trying to bug the offices of the Democratic National Committee at the Watergate hotel and office complex.
August 8, 1974: Richard Nixon becomes the first U.S. president to resign. Vice President Gerald R. Ford assumes the country's highest office. He will later pardon Nixon of all charges related to the Watergate case.

Maybe it's not the student. Maybe it is the teacher. Students will not learn and will not ask questions if the teacher gets mad because he/she thinks you should have learned the first time. Most people don't get it right the first time they try to learn something new, like walking or riding a bike. It doesn't make them ingnorant if they keep trying until they understand and it comes together.
The president is a man and he is on the world stage. It's actually a compliment that so many people are interested in his life story. If there are unanswered questions in their minds there is nothing wrong with digging a little deeper to know a little more. If that is offensive then that's a problem.

That's one (but only one) of the points in the Kerchner et al v. Onama et al action.
I understand that people argue that procedures where not followed. However, the procedures followed are what is known as the short procedure which asks to accellerate the process without objections and drop the formalities of the individual vote count. Even if Congress failed to follow the rules, the election of President will still be final and irrevocable.
As for Quo Warranto, there certainly IS a legal provision for it … check DC statute 3501 and following. I doubt that's even needed in this case, though.
It does not state that it applies to presidential elections and for good reasons. In fact, as Congress found in Hayes, the Constitution does not allow for Quo Warranto to try the title of a President.
For instance
§ 468a. Writs of quo warranto in the District Courts. The better opinion is that the District Courts of the United States have original jurisdiction to grant the writ of quo warranto only when specifically authorized by statute; and that no writ of quo warranto can issue from them to try the title to the office of President of the United States. The District Courts of the United States have jurisdiction of all suits to recover possession of any office, except that of elector of President or Vice President, Representative in or Delegate to Congress, or member of a State legislature, authorized by law to be brought, wherein it appears that the sole question touching the title to such office arises out of the denial of the right to vote to any citizen offering to vote, on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude: Provided, That such jurisdiction shall extend only so far as to determine the rights of the parties to such office by reason of the denial of the right guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States, and secured by any law, to enforce the right of citizens of the United States to vote in all the States.” * The Revised Statutes provide that “whenever any person holds office, except as a member of Congress or of some State legislature, contrary to the provisions of the third section of the fourteenth article of amendment of the Constitution, the district attorney for the district in which such person holds office shall proceed against him by writ of quo warranto, returnable to the Circuit or District Court of the United States in such district, and prosecute the same to the removal of such person from office..”8 This applied to persons disqualified from holding office by the Fourteenth Amendment, whose disabilities had not been removed.

If he can do so in a rigorous fashion, fine. Until then there are serious questions as to whether he legally be the President. Even if he is not legally eligible you're still welcome to “love and admire” him all you wish.

Let me provide the reference to the shortened procedures
?
The joint session may agree to expedite this process when no controversy is anticipated. In the 1997 joint meeting, for example, the Vice President announced: “Under well-established precedents, unless a motion shall be made in any case, the reading of the formal portions of the certificates will be dispensed with.<.b> After ascertainment has been had that the certificates are authentic and correct in form, the tellers will count and make a list of the votes cast by the electors of the several States.”6 The Vice President proceeded to open the certificates in alphabetical order and passed to the tellers the certificates showing the votes of the electors in each state and the District of Columbia. In each case, the tellers then read, counted, and announced the result for each state and the District of Columbia. According to the Congressional Record, the joint session consumed precisely 24 minutes.

Liddy actually went further than that, claiming the step-grandmother gave a deposition. What actually happened is she was interviewed on tape, through a translator, and later that translation was apparently transcribed. This was not done in any court of law, was not notorized, and would likely not be admissible in court unless the witness were present in court to be cross-examined. Further, the recording that the birfoon lawyers released was edited to reflect their claims, the full recording demonstrates that even she claims, repeatedly, that Obama was born in Hawaii.
However, Libby may just be confused, maybe as a result of 1) him experiencing the onset of senility or 2) him being on the brink of death or 3) Matthews having slipped him a Rufie!

uniquelyme, the sad thing is that both examples you gave are easily de-bunked.
You only have to read the article on this very website, entitled “The Sarah Obama Myth,” to learn that Obama's grandmother never said President Obama was born in Kenya. His father has the same name (Barack Hussein Obama) and she was talking about his father. It was a translator's error that was immediately and repeatedly corrected by the family, sitting around Sarah Obama, as soon as they realized the mistake.
http://washingtonindependent.com/52519/the-sara…
And as for “African” on a birth certificate…
Obama's father is not a Negro. Negro is an American term. It only applies to blacks who are of American descent. That is why Obama's father's race is PROPERLY given as “African.”
Functionally, it says “African” because no one gave a shit. My friend is Chinese-American and was born in Texas in 1971. Her birth certificate, for her own race (never mind her mother's or father's), says “YELLOW.”
They need a lot more than another layer of tinfoil. They need the Hubble Telescope.

JTX raises a good question that deserves an answer
Also, if the man is not able to demonstrate that he IS Constitutionally eligible then he is ineligible to hold the office and ANY Congregational actions become moot (especially those that were fundamentally flawed anyway).
First of all, there is no US law which requires the President to show himself eligible per Article II, Section 1, Clause 5. Since the original Constitution does not address this, one has to look for amendments and the answer is to be found in the 12th amendment
Mr FRELINGHUYSEN It seems to me Mr President that there is one idea which the Senator from Ohio has entirely omitted which is conclusive upon this subject it certainly is to my mind I think the twelfth article of the amendments to the Constitution settles who has jurisdiction over this question. It does not do so in express terms but it does do so by necessary implication. It says that the President of the Senate is to open the certificates aud the votes which are then to be eouuted in the presence of the two houses. That by necessary implication to my mind gives the jurisdiction over this subject to the two houses and if the Constitution does give it to them we cannot by law give it to the judiciary of the country
Second of all, is the question of eligibility which includes, as one of the requirements that the President is natural born. To understand the term, which is not defined in the Constitution one has to look at how the term was used in those days. It should come as no surprise that the answer is found in Common Law which states that anyone born on US soil, regardless of the nationality of the parents, is natural born.
Then there is the issue of double allegiance, a concept well understood in those days. For instance in the case of Steinkauler,
Young Steinkauler who was born in St Louis after his father had been naturalized in the United States the father subsequently returning to Germany and taking the boy with him is a native born American citizen. There is no law of the United States under which his father or any other person can deprive him of his birthright. He can return to America at the age of twenty one and in due time if the people elect he can become President of the United States
There is no law of the United States under which his parents could have deprived young Steinkauler of his birth right. In other words, even if Obama's status as a British citizen was guided by British law, it does not deprive him of his birth right natural born status, as long as by reaching the age of majority the child, now grown up, decides to maintain his birth right citizenship.
Obama returned and stayed in the US well before reaching age of majority and thus the argument seems to be well settled in favor of our President.

Steve, nobody is interested in the truth. They just want to thump their chests. Here's a little truth for you.
Every time someone calls “Birther” a “nutjob”, all they are doing is making an argument to bring back the tyranny of Bush/Cheney. Obama was born in Kenya and Bush/Cheney don't want you to know. Bush/Cheney are only doing what they did for 8 longs years. They lie to get what they want.
Right now, Bush/Cheney want Obama to be President. So they are engineering a lie about Obama's country of birth. Bush/Cheney are like cockroaches who scurry away when anyone shines some light on them.
Like Steve, I say it's about time to shine the light of truth on Bush/Cheney and their pawn Obama. Why are people so worried about the truth? It's because they would rather live a lie than face up to the truth.

Having two powerful political parties neither limits the number of political parties we can have or the competing streams of ideas that ultimately inform our political parties. Just because you are a small enough person to fit inside the constraints of one of just two political parties doesn't mean others are as superficial as you.

I don't know of anyone who has claimed Obama is NOT sitting in the WH. That's not the issue but rather whether he is eligible to hold the office.
You Forgers seem more than willing to have an ineligible man sitting in the WH. Why is that? Does it fit your warped idea of “truth”?
As for 2012 and beyond, don't count your turkeys before they're eligible!!

I support the search for the truth. A question has been raised, and it desrves an answer. The Constitution by which ALL Americans are bound so states, those who have grievances are entitled to redress in accordance with the 5th amendment.
I checked my version which states
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
Nothing here that seems to support your claim. Could you please elaborate? While you have the right for your grievances to be heard, there is no right for them to be acted upon.
The 1st amendment explains
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
You are free to petition for redress of grievances, however this confers no right beyond this.

Obama is keeping the best available evidence secret. Let's just add suppression of evidence to the other charges of election fraud, campaign finance violations and filing fraudulent documents in all 50 states. No matter what you might think there is no escaping that AKA Obama is not practicing the virtue of full disclosure.

This is less possible to stephenperry because stephenperry lives a life in a very narrow intellectual corridor. Stephenperry ignores the doors on either side of the corridor and assumes everything he/she needs to know exists in the corridor. Stephenperry has convinced his or herself that nothing of worth can be gained from opening one of the doors and taking a careful look around.
Stephenperry, not only are there many rooms to explore, there are many other corridors as well. Some of the rooms are inter-connected. Some rooms are as large as football stadiums and others are no larger than linen closets.
I know that the reverence you hold for Bush/Cheney blinds you to what the Birthers are really saying. That's OK. For a few months after 9/11, I was similarly blind. Maybe it will take you decades to achieve what I achieved in a matter of weeks. But you can get there if you just keep trying.

The problem with tin-foil hat freaks is that they are beyond the reach of logic and facts. Don't they think that between the Clinton campaign machine, the McCain campaign machine and the entire Republican party, that something would have been found if there was anything to find, and would have most certainly been used. Obama's birth certificate has been verified, and is precisely as much of a trustworthy document as any of us possess; not impossible to forge but certainly genuine enough to appease the officials. The announcement in the newspaper is pretty hard to argue with, at least for persons with a brain; it would have been one mean trick to plant that birth announcement in an American newspaper 47 years ago without the aid of a tricked-out Delorean.
Obama has had the issue of his birth studied more closely, and verified more times than any previous president, but we all know these fools would not stop, would not be appeased for a millisecond, if he went around to each and every one of them personally and showed them the certificate in their living room. Why? Because the place of his birth is not the issue. The issue is their blind hatred, racism, stupidity, anger at “liberals” for the audacity to win an election without having to steal it, and complete refusal to accept the popularly elected president under any circumstances whatsoever. Not every question that is raised deserves an answer simply by virtue of the fact that it was asked; some questions are asked by crazy people and people with an agenda to simply destroy, and are therefore not worthy of reasonable consideration, just as it makes no sense to give two sides of an argument equal validity if one of them is completely out to lunch.

Sorry AristotleTheHun,
What validates the righteousness of my stance is the fact that I am a natural born American citizen. Nothing more. Nothing less.
I espouse Righteousness because I self evidently have the right to do so.
I refuse to be marginalized because those I disagree with are contemptuous of the truth. Obama's election is illegitimate because his place of birth violates the laws of the great country.
I don't expect he will resign. Bush/Cheney never resigned when they viciously attacked the Freedoms contained in our constitution. So why should Obama resign when his election also contravenes the articles in this same Constitution?
Obama is a child of Bush/Cheney. We paid for Obama's election by wilfully allowing Bush/Cheney to break the law and make a mockery of what once made us great.
The real Birthers understand this and are not afraid to stand up for what is both right and true.
StephenPerry and AristotleTheHun are just a couple of people making the same argument for the same thing. They just don't know it.

jtx,
We're not Obama “lovers.” Maybe some of us are. Not all by any stretch. We're just rational people.
We don't “only engage in ad hominem attacks.” This is one thread among many. I first posted here last Friday, 7/17, the day the “Birthers Dog Republicans” story got posted. I saw many logical responses and citations to evidence among the early posts. I added my own. They were polite and they were truthful. They are still there. You can check.
But birthers don't sincerely seek answers to their insulting questions. They never provide answers to your questions, only more questions (insulting ones at that).
And birthers are racists, in addition to being liars.
So after a few iterations of the same story, it's more useful to call a spade a spade, while using the idiocy of the birthers' own tortured, circular reasoning against them, and examining closely the real import of what you birthers are saying, by mocking it. Reductio ad absurdum, I'm sure you're familiar with it.
If you didn't think we were making sense, anyway, why would you care? Why not let us go on and have our sophomoric fun? Not bothering anyone. Just jibber-jabberin' away like monkeys in a tree while you go on and run your Ziplock Bag Birth Certificate Parade.

Comment posted July 26, 2009 @ 3:06 am
Bingo! Obama’s father was not a citizen of the USA, nor even an immigrant or even a permanent resident. Per Vattel he is not a natural born citizen or even a native of the USA.
The problem is that Vattel is not the guiding principle in the United States, common law is. The Founders’ interest in Vattel was limited to law between nations.
To continue to misunderstand these concepts inevitable leads one to an erroneous conclusion.
The idea that one with dual citizenship cannot be a natural born is also contradicted in Steinkauler where it was ruled that a son could not lose his natural born status just because he acquired through an act not of his own chosing a secondary citizenship.
In Steinkauler’s case (15 Op Atty Gen 15 12 Alb L.J. 23) in an opinion by Mr Pierrepont Attorney General of the US we have the following .Young Steinkauler who was born in St Louis after his father had been naturalized in the United States the father subsequently returning to Germany and taking the boy with him is a native born American citizen. There is no law of the United States under which his father or any other person can deprive him of his birthright. He can return to America at the age of twenty one and in due time if the people elect he can become President of the United States but the father in accordance with the treaty and the laws has renounced his American citizenship and his American allegiance and has acquired for himself and his son German citizenship and the rights which it carries and he must take the burdens as well as the advantages. The son being domiciled with the father and subject to him under the law during his minority and receiving the German protection where he has an acquired nationality and declining to give any assurance of his intention of ever returning to the United States and claiming his American nationality by residence here I am of opinion that he cannot rightfully invoke the aid of the government of the United States to relieve him from military duty in Germany during his minority but I am of opinion that when he reaches the age of twenty one years he can elect whether he will return and take the nationality of his birth with its duties and privileges or retain the nationality acquired by the act of his father. This seems to me to be right reason and I think it is law. That a double nationality as well as a double domicil may be set up is illustrated by a case decided in Geneva in December 1879 and reported in the Revue de droit int for 1880 p 313 I,., born in Bordeaux of a Genevese father regarding himself as a Frenchman was registered on the French electoral list became mayor of a commune and a member of the national guard of Paris .His wife who was a native of Bordeaux in marrying him supposed him to be a Frenchman. Difficulties arising between them he instituted an action of divorce against her in Geneva taking the ground that by Genevese law Genevese nationality was indelible. The petition was granted due cause being shown and I s Genevese nationality being in the opinion of the court established It was not proved it was held that I had ever acquired has been just seen is now repudiated Nationality it is now held is a birthright of a child and such being the case it cannot be divested without the consent of the party enjoying it.
Your imaginary stories about Obama’s birth are almost as credible as your references to Vattel when our country’s rich history shows that it was English common law and jus soli that guided citizenship and the meaning of natural born. In fact your references to Vattel shows that he considered natural and native to be quite similar. He just did not believe that such citizenship extended to children born to non citizen parents. However there is no evidence that his ideas were ever taken seriously in this country as a foundation for ‘natural born’.
The courts have spoken, history has spoken, legislative sessions have spoken , common law has spoken and all you have is a somewhat obscure reference to Vattel while ignoring a vast amount of evidence to the contrary.
Good luck on your lawsuit my friend

Get ourselves re-elected (no matter which political party) then stick it to the voters and pretend it's the other party's fault.
They're all 535 of them corrupt and need to be replaced.
The issue, though, is not the birth certificate itself but whether the man can prove that he is eligible under the Constifution to hold the office he occupies. Personal attacks on posters who disagree with you won't make the man eligible. It's foth a factual and a legal issue.

Dr. Polarik writes: “There are laws on the books in Hawaii and the Federal Statutes that clearly spell out exactly what constitutes forgery, and in both Hawaii State Law and the Federal Statutes, the act of altering an official government document — even if it is just a facsimile of that document — constitutes forgery. The bogus COLB that Obama created is also considered to be a “false identification document, a felony forgery.” Dr. Polarik’s evidence is preserved online. There is also a YouTube video summary of the evidence.

The natives, or natural born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens. (Vattel, Law of Nations, Book 1, Chapter 19)
parents and citizens are both plural…..
The following information comes directly from Barack Obama's website:
When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4, 1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom's dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.'s children. Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4, 1982. (FactCheck.org, as quoted in Obama's “Fight the Smears” webpage regarding his birth certificate, emphasis added).

This is why Hawaiian state officials have authenticated (auth-en-tic-ated, say it once more and it's yours) the version that is online by affirming that it is identical in all respects to the hard copy, which they have a copy of too.

“They're all 535 of them corrupt and need to be replaced.
The issue, though, is not the birth certificate itself but whether the man can prove that he is eligible under the Constifution to hold the office he occupies.”
Two problems. Well, two that I'll deal with, anyway.
That first sentence identifies you as someone whose concerns are greater than this little blog can handle. We have a chance to replace all 535 representatives, with news ones, in staggered election cycles (terms are different for Senate and House). But that's not what you mean. Because you'd just say the next 535 are also corrupt, and the next, and so forth. So you're really advocating for a different form of government. I believe there's a tea bagging party you can join, if you're into that sort of thing.
The second sentence belies your sincerity. You say it's not the birth certificate itself but whether the man can prove he is eligible under the Constitution to hold the office etc. But you see, the “birth certificate itself” resolves the eligibility issue. It says he was born in Hawaii in 1961. He's more than 35. End of story.
But not for you. And you just said so. Know why? Because you're stupid. Should'a kept that last one to yourself. Then you could keep pretending you gave a shit about the birth certificate. Because at least that's a pretext. You just gave that up.

You stated you had 5000 hits and I responded that I just went to your website to check it out.
“I can remember when liberals were nice people who were just wrong about most things. Now they are wrong and nasty.”
I probably voted for more Republicans that you (I'm pretty old and always vote). The birthers and other nonsense are driving many of the Republicans out of the Party. I see myself as more of an Independent now. So you have to get more voters to make up for the General Colin Powell and other that are fed up over the far right’s influence in the Republican Party. The Party of President Lincoln and President Teddy Roosevelt.

You still think Bush, McCain, Clinton, and the entire GOP failed to notice that? And you have the unmitigated dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks gall to post a quote that belies your whole point by inclusion of a link to factcheck.org, which says plain as day when you go there that this birth certificate thing is hooey?

If all of that is true as you say, why then did he provide a forged COLB?
Dr. Polarik writes: “There are laws on the books in Hawaii and the Federal Statutes that clearly spell out exactly what constitutes forgery, and in both Hawaii State Law and the Federal Statutes, the act of altering an official government document — even if it is just a facsimile of that document — constitutes forgery. The bogus COLB that Obama created is also considered to be a “false identification document, a felony forgery.” Dr. Polarik’s evidence is preserved online. There is also a YouTube video summary of the evidence.
Forensic document examiner Sandra Ramsey Lines, a Former Federal Examiner with a long history of expert testimony in state and federal courts, has testified in an affidavit that states, in part:
After reviewing Dr. Polarik’s analysis, Sandra Lines says, “I can state with certainty that the COLB presented on the internet by the various groups, which include the “Daily Kos,” the Obama Campaign, “Factcheck.org” and others cannot be relied upon as genuine. Dr. Polarik raises issues concerning the COLB that I can affirm. Software such as Adobe Photoshop can produce complete images or alter images that appear to be genuine; therefore, any image offered on the internet cannot be relied upon as being a copy of the authentic document.” Sandra Ramsey Lines summary is posted at U.

JTX: As I'm sure you know but don't wish to admit, Obama has not yet shown himself to be eligible under the requirements of the Constitution and he'll eventually have to do so in court.
Since there is no such requirement and since the Courts cannot resolve this issue, we may indeed have to wait a very long time for JTX's hopes to become reality.

On the “permanently, until after the U.S. elections” line, I’m just quoting what they’d announced. I suppose that “permanently” means “until after Barry gets indicted.” Damned funny phrasing, but then English isn’t anybody’s milk tongue in Mombasa, is it?
And how do you construe that the fact that “the elections are over now” means anything? If Barry Soetoro has done what it’s pretty obvious he’s gone – and is continuing to do – he’s going to be trying to run the Executive Branch from a cell somewhere in the federal prison system.
Even his fellow National Socialists in the Congress – who are going to be supremely lucky if they don’t succumb to a linked “Night of the Long Knives” by way of the RICO Act – will have to agree to his impeachment and removal from office.
And then we get Joe Biden – Kee-rist! – as POTUS. Talk about scum forming on top….

What's nice is that the stupid ones have been kind enough to assemble in the same place under the same common name. Now if we can just get them all to wear ziplock bag birth certificate necklaces, we're set.
I really think they should apologize to white people, more than they should to blacks like you or me. They're way worse than my most embarrassing relatives at a family reunion that has gone on two days too long.
Most people aren't nutty racists. By far, most people are good and decent. But they don't come here. They're off doing whatever normal white people do. Something involving Trader Joe's or bowling or yoga, I'm not sure.
So the vocal minority paint with a broad brush and end up coloring themselves as racist. And five kinds of stupid.
But let's not blur our own lines. This is not a black vs. white issue. It's a stupid vs. not stupid issue. I read that my first day here and I wish I remembered who to attribute.

If George Washington were alive today George would personally kick the imposter out of the cesspool known as washington d.c. in an effort to clean up the corruption there. Don't you get it all you 'bama followers all of this is just smoke and mirrors by the birthers. All of this is campaign tactics being brought on by opponents well in advance of the next election. One thing for sure there will be no removal of term limits for your beloved bamy. “it” will have to campaign if “it” is not impeached on high crimes and treason for the next election. “it” will have to lie again and explain past lies by covering them up with future lies and you will love that because you are the racist calling someone else a racist.

Oh, maybe because the photos of confirmed original 2007 COLB's by other Hawaiian residents are distinctly different in many details from Obama's 2007 COLB. But then you don't know that because you can't bring yourself to actually examine the evidence.
By the way, the verified expert also said “Dr. Polarik raises issues concerning the COLB that I can affirm”. So there is more than the issue of it being an electronic document. Figures that your selective logic brain can't grasp that point. Face it, your not interested in the truth wherever it may lead, your interested in diminishing and discouraging open minded investigation. Lastly, to begin by saying there is no credible evidence that it was forged is just plain ignorance. I do research for a living. I know what credible evidence is. I am not fooled by disinfo games. It must really suck to not have an independent thinking mind.

I compared a known 2007 COLB and Obama's, to noone's surprise they matched.
So what do we know about the COLB?
That it has a raised seal, and a signature and matches COLB's released in 2007. In addition, it shows President Obama born in Honolulu Hawaii on August 4, 1961, and that his birth was registered on August 8th, just in time for the birth announcements in two Hawaiian newspapers.

The only reason I will never “get” you on the birther issue is because there's nothing there to “get.” You're a delusional freak. Not really a challenge to deduce that one.
Here's evidence:
“Don't you get it all you 'bama followers all of this is just smoke and mirrors by the birthers. All of this is campaign tactics being brought on by opponents well in advance of the next election.”
Let me get this straight. Birtherism is a campaign tactic that your side's brain trust came up with as a fiendishly clever ploy to…distract the President so you can blindside him with your “Ordering 20 Pizzas And Sendin' Em To The White House” grand finale?
I thought it was an embarrassing thorn in the side of a gravely wounded elephant. Shit, you sure fooled me.
But now that I have been straightened out to the intentional, deliberately calculated nature of birtherism, I must say, it's a ridiculous strategy. It exposes you and your party as freaks who have no legitimate concerns but instead hide behind fringe websites and their distortions of audiotapes made in Kenya. And things much less solid than that. I think I've recognized my own aunt's chain emails floating around in the birther vapidsphere.
Your party, the GOP, got its ass handed to it in the 2012 elections, top to bottom. Demographics are against you. Issues (health care, economy, personal freedom) are against you. News cycles (birthers, Ensign, Sanford, Palin — see! birthers is in there as a negative!) are against you.
And your grand plan is to assemble and attack your own confused and frightened GOP leaders with zip lock bagged birth certificates and superfluous recitations of the Pledge of Allegiance?
Batman Returns: Morgan Freeman's character has a sit-down with an M&A lawyer who found evidence that Bruce Wayne is the Batman:
“Let me get this straight. You believe that your boss, one of the richest men in the world, spends his nights beating criminals to a pulp with his bare hands, and your plan is to BLACKMAIL this person? Good luck!”
Bart Simpson moves to a new town and gets put in remedial classes.
Bart to teacher: “Lady, let me get this straight. We're behind the regular kids, and we're supposed to catch up to them by going SLOWER than they are? Cuckoo! Cuckoo!”

Greg: If all of that is true as you say Omaar, why then did he provide a forged COLB?
He did not such thing Do you not feel silly for promulgating a falsehood?
Greg: Just because pictures showing Obama's document provided is different from all other genuine 2007 COLB'S does not mean it was forged
I compared a known 2007 COLB and Obama's, to noone's surprise they matched.
So what do we know about the COLB?
That it has a raised seal, and a signature and matches COLB's released in 2007. In addition, it shows President Obama born in Honolulu Hawaii on August 4, 1961, and that his birth was registered on August 8th, just in time for the birth announcements in two Hawaiian newspapers.
Wow. No wonder you have to called it a forgery…

Greg – So when did the conspiracy start. Why didn't the Republican governor of Hawaii or the Republican POTUS catch this? Why did the Republican Chief Justice of the Supreme Court deliver President Obama's oath of office?
Either the Republican party is part of the conspiracy OR incompetent OR I guess President Obama BC was legit and he is the POTUS for 3.5 – 7.5 more years.

Well naturally as a confirmed OBOT DRONE you would conclude what you say from the link you provide. It's when you get in really close the way forensic document examiners do you can clearly see discrepancies. But you being an OBOT DRONE are not interested in anything an expert might conclude. How smart is that. Got any more pathetic selective logic to fool those who can't think for themselves. I do research for a living and that includes looking at official documents and pictures on a daily basis. Your approach and conclusion is laughable. No, on second thought it is down right stupid.

It says that online documents CAN BE forged, because software like Photoshop exists.

No credible forensic examination has been done and no credible discrepancies have been shown. Your argument was that Obama's COLB was different. No such evidence has been provided so far and I have shown that your statement is thus incorrect.
Does it not bother you that the two COLB's are identical, other than the expected differences in the printed text and the location of the seal and signature?
It is unfortunate that we do not have non-jpg format pictures so far since jpg can run havoc on any forensic examination since it is a lossy compression, and every time you save it, even without changes, it becomes further compressed.
RAW or TIFF format would be ideal. Nevertheless, the unfounded claims like yours have been quickly put to rest. If you have any other objections, feel free to present them.

So, as I now read 8 U.S.C. § 1401, “a person born outside the geographical limits of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents one of whom is an alien, and the other a citizen of the United States” before Nov. 14, 1986 is a natural-born citizen only if the citizen parent “was physically present in the United States or its outlying possessions for a period or periods totaling not less than ten years, at least five of which were after attaining the age of fourteen years” — the same rule that was in place in the early 1960s. See also United States v. Flores-Villar, 497 F. Supp. 2d 1160, 1162-64 (S.D. Cal. 2007) (taking the same view and concluding the change from ten years/five years to five years/two years only applied to people born after 1986), aff'd, 536 F.3d 990 (9th Cir. 2008) (so assuming but not discussing it in detail); Rico-Ibarra v. Mukasey, 281 Fed. Appx. 694, 695 n.1 (9th Cir. 2008) (not precedential).

So if Obama is legit why does he submit a forged 2007 COLB with the 2008 COLB border? Why do the numerous pictures of different parts of Obama's COLB differ from confirmed Hawaiian citizens COLB'S? If you suffer from reading comprehension just look at the differences in the photographs. Why does Obama's COLB show evidence of heat(think Laser Printer) and the other COLB's show minimal heat as is normal for a standard impression type printing machine?

For children born outside the United States things get a little more tricky as it depends on which law was in place at the time of birth. If Obama were born outside the US then per US law, he was not a US citizen, unless Obama Sr was not his father and/or if Ann Dunham was not legally married to Obama Sr. The latter is a real possibility given the existence of wife in Kenya.
Since however there is no credible evidence that Obama was born outside the US, these are just interesting hypotheticals.

HONOLULU — The state’s Department of Health director on Friday released a statement verifying the legitimacy of Sen. Barack Obama birth certificate.
The state has received multiple requests for a copy of Obama’s birth certificate. State law does not allow officials to release the birth certificate of a person to someone outside of the family. …
“There have been numerous requests for Sen. Barack Hussein Obama’s official birth certificate. State law (Hawai‘i Revised Statutes §338-18) prohibits the release of a certified birth certificate to persons who do not have a tangible interest in the vital record,” DOH Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino said.
“Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawai‘i, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawai‘i State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures. No state official, including Governor Linda Lingle, has ever instructed that this vital record be handled in a manner different from any other vital record in the possession of the State of Hawai‘i,” Fukino said.

The issue is that even if the COLB is real it does not answer the question if Obama meets the natural born question. The reason is that in Hawaii in the 1960's due to lax immigration laws there was massive immigration fraud. People could walk in off the street and on their word get a birth certificate with no verifiable evidence.
So if Obama's parents did commit fraud how would we know? Obama has declared publicly that he was born in a hospital in Hawaii. Those facts are only contained in the vault birth records that the State of Hawaii has announced they are holding, but Obama has refused to allow be produced.
If these vault records confirm Obama's statement then it would be a simple matter to then confirm the fact with the hospital records. But Obama has also refused to produce the records from the hospital that he claims to have been born.
So, if the vault records say that instead of a hospital Obama was born in the taxi cab or any other place but the hospital specified by Obama it raises the need for further evidence to confirm that Obama was born in Hawaii.
The real crux of this issue is that the Democratic National Committee had notice of this controversy since at least December 2007. The Hillary blogs were filled with it:
http://www.commongroundpolitics.net/discussion/…
Try and find a statement from the DNC saying they have fully vetted Obama and reviewed his records and found him to be a natural born citizen. It does not exist. All that exists is Obama producing a photograph of a birth certificate to factcheck. Hardly what rises to vetting of a Presidential candidate. That is what is driving the request for the vault birth records.

Lastly genius(oxymoron), all three links(you know those blue lines that when you click them you go to another web page) state unequivocally that the Obama COLB is forged. Had you actually gone to those links and read the reports and viewed the photographic evidence showing forgery you would not be making stupid assumptions.

No. Fail. Stop right there. If the COLB is real, Obama was born in Hawaii and is thus natural born and eligible in all respects.

AOL poll: 82% want Obama to release it
Say president should show American people birth certificate
Posted: July 25, 2009
2:40 am Eastern
© 2009 WorldNetDaily
HotSeat poll
WASHINGTON – The latest AOL online poll shows 82 percent of respondents saying Barack Obama should release his birth certificate.
This finding in spite of a veritable media barrage in recent days of unsubstantiated claims ranging from all Hawaiian birth certificates were destroyed to it already has been released.
A story that went unnoticed by most of the major media has now become one of the most covered stories in the nation. But the coverage has been almost exclusively of the kind that downplays the seriousness of the controversy – often ridiculing concerns about the birth certificate as conspiracy fodder and matters that only preoccupy the uninformed.
But in the latest AOL poll of more than 30,000 people, 82 percent said it's time for Obama to cough up the original long-form birth certificate.
In fact, in every state in the union – including Obama's claimed birthplace of Hawaii and his more recent home state of Illinois – most people want to see the birth certificate.
(Story continues below)
A scientific poll conducted by WND last month found 50 percent of Americans aware of the eligibility controversy, with 49 percent believing he should release the birth certificate as well as other documents, such as his college records.

Citizen at Birth (CAB) is NOT equal or synonymous with Natural Born Citizen (NBC)
While a natural born citizen is obviously a citizen at birth, not all citizens at birth are natural born citizens. The two legal terms of art are not identical and are not equal.
There is absolutely nothing in that U.S. Statute, USC Title 8 Section 1401, that grants “natural born citizenship” to anyone. The legal term of art “natural born citizen” is not even mentioned in that law. USC Section 1401 only determines by law who is a “citizen” or a “national” of the U.S. at birth, i.e., simple “citizen at birth”. The law is a naturalization law which grants citizenship by law. The legal term of art “citizen at birth” is not the same legally as the legal term of art “natural born citizen”. Simply note that in one case we are talking about who is at least an ordinary “citizen” at birth and in the other case we have two very important adjectives in front of the word citizen, i.e., “natural born” citizen. That special legal term of art was codified by Vattel in his legal treatise The Law of Nations in 1758 in which he said that … a natural born citizen is a person born in the country to parents who are both citizens of the country. And this group or class of citizens are the most populous group of any nation. Most citizens of the USA are natural born citizens. Most citizens of the USA were born in the USA to two parents who were citizens of the USA. And that is the pool of citizens that must be chosen from for the singular most powerful office in our nation, the President and Commander-in-Chief of our military. Simple citizenship at birth by being born in the USA without regard to the citizenship status of both your parents … or by naturalization and swearing an oath to this country and renouncing all allegiances foreign kings, princes, and potentates later as an adult, is adequate for the offices of Senator, Representative, or a Governor of a state. But it is not sufficient to be the President under Article II, to Constitutional standards. Article II requires that the person to be eligible to be President must be a “natural born citizen”. And that means that person must be born in the USA and both his parents must be citizens of the USA.
Natural born citizenship status in a nation is granted by the facts of nature of your birth. No law or statute is necessary to grant it. The nations can make any law they wish to make a person a citizen at birth or later. But natural born citizenship can only be conveyed by nature by the facts at birth of the child. If you are born in the country of two citizen parents you are naturally … a “natural born citizen” … a citizen too … but special kind of citizen who is eligible to be the President and Commander-in-Chief of our military since the child when born has sole allegiance to this country and no claim on him by a foreign power as to their citizenship of a foreign country at birth too. He has unity of citizenship at birth. He is not a dual citizen at birth. A natural born citizen has no divided loyalty issues by his birth since the child was born in the country to two citizens of the country.

I am sorry. You seem to think that you can stick your fingers in your ears and yell and win arguements that way. The State of Hawaii, nor any court in the Country, can confirm just on the face of the COLB if Obama is or is not a natural born citizen. Again, if Obama were born say in Vancouver BC, and then was flown to Hawaii and his parents brought him in and lied and said he plopped out in the backyard the State of Hawaii would have been given them a birth certificate. Obama could produce the COLB that you see on factcheck. That would not change the fact that Obama was born in Vancouver BC, nor validate the COLB.
Sorry but the fault here lies directly at the feet of the Democratic National Committee. They placed their interests over the People by not vetting Obama before placing his name on the ballot.

Personal History of a Birther
How about a little personal history for what is behind me being a “birther”
I read the “Warren Report” and I believe that Lee Harvey Oswald was a lone gunman.
I have never seen a flying saucer, even though I have been a pilot and a FAA certified air traffic controlman.
I don’t believe that “Big Foot” exists.
I think Islamic terrorists took down the World Trade Center.
I don’t believe FEMA is planning to round up citizens and put them in concentration camps, and I don’t think swine flu is an international conspiracy.
The Lock Ness Monster is a fantasy.
I am certain that the Apollo mission actually went to the moon.
There are no more missing aircraft and ships in the so called “Bermuda Triangle” than in any other part of the earth with equivalent traffic.
After having reviewed the REAL science, I am convinced that Global Warming is a huge scam.
I have a PhD, and am in private practice as a psychotherapist, so more than likely I am not crazy.

I am a life time member of Mensa, so I am not stupid. Membership # 1061487
The guiding principles for my professional research for articles and books I write are the usual protocols of epistemology, scientific methodology, and rules of logic and the rules of evidence.
However, I am firmly convinced that AKA Obama is not eligible to be POTUS, and here is why:
If you read the articles at the link, and review the citations at the embedded links, you will be “literate” about the facts of the “eligibility” story and will be able to inform the public objectively.

Not that interesting, nbc1.
Assuming arguendo that Obama was born outside the U.S. and further assuming that the law in 1961 would seem to bar his citizenship on the basis that his mother, who had lived in the US her whole life, had not yet lived for 5 years past her 14th birthday, there's no conceivable way he would be denied citizenship.
The reason is that there is a well-known maxim of statutory interpretation that no law will be read in such a way that results in an absurdity. It is patently absurd to say that an 18 year old U.S. citizen's baby is not a citizen when that 18 year old had lived in the country her whole life, and a 19 year old's is a citizen, where that 19 year old has traveled for a few years as a child. No case has construed the then-existing provision, and no court would enforce such a ridiculous law. That is in part why there was a clarification of the law.
But all this is orders of magnitude beyond where we find ourselves. The black guy was born to a white woman in a far-flung state of the U.S. but a state nonetheless. Nothing else to see here but a few zip lock bags littering the concession area.

So what? Does this say anything other than they are holding the vault records that need to be made public? They have not stated that Obama was born in the hospital that Obama has claimed. If the records say he was born in the backyard and show Obama lied what does that mean? It means further evidence will be require to confirm if Obama is or is not a natural born citizen. That question remains unanswered.
This is a very disingenuous statement by government officials.

John, in federal and state court, you can petition the court to have a person declared a “vexatious litigant.” That prohibits that person from filing suit again without the Court’s permission.
There are disciplinary measures the Court or State Bar Association can bring against an attorney who files frivolous suits. In federal court, for example, one of the rules of procedure makes an attorney’s signature on a pleading as good as a promise that the litigation is not being filed for any improper purpose, including without limitation to harass or annoy someone. The Court can fine or otherwise sanction attorneys who violate it. The state bar of whichever state (in Taitz’s case I think it’s California) the attorney is a member of can also penalize the attorney.
I suspect you’ll hear more about these measures in the media as this story progresses beyond the carnival to who has to do the cleaning up.

PubliusGoat Citizen at Birth (CAB) is NOT equal or synonymous with Natural Born Citizen (NBC)
The two are exactly synonymous.
Natural Born Citizen in common law tradition extends to anyone born on US soil, regardless of the status of the parents. In fact, that is one of the major flaws in Kerchner's lawsuit.
I have shown how historical references, legislative debates, judicial rulings, common law history all support this simple fact.
Such as this
Afterwards however in Convention the words natural born citizen were stricken out and the word native was substituted as the original words might have left an uncertainty as to the meaning of the Convention for natural born citizen might have had some reference to the manner of birth while the word native would refer more particularly to the place of birth
Source: Debates and proceedings in the New-York state convention By New York (State). Constitutional Convention, Sherman Croswell, R. Sutton, 1846
or these legal rulings
Lynch v Clarke (1844)
Not to forget Wong Kim Ark
I am presently reading Kettner's book “The development of American Citizenship 1608-1870″ which undermines further your claims.

No, keep in mind the distinction between a citizen and a natural born citizen. Obama could be a citizen, but may not be a natural born citizen.
And yes the Courts would enforce the law. As Obama's mother was short of her 19th birthday Obama would not qualify. There is no confusion nor does it result in an absurdity. It means Obama is not President.

“The State of Hawaii, nor any court in the Country, can confirm just on the face of the COLB if Obama is or is not a natural born citizen.”
I agree with the first part. The State of Hawaii can confirm that. And they did. Glad we agree.
We haven't gotten to the second part, where you say nor any court in the country could do so. But you're wrong, of course. Courts are authorized to resolve all disputes. You'd just need to have standing to bring suit. That, so far, has been the sticking point for ALL suits against politicians' eligibility — the McCain campaign relied on standing to defeat such claims made against McCain in the election season, as the Obama campaign did and is still doing. David Weigel's reporting on this website makes that clear. But you didn't need to look there to see that.
And the latest twist link in your chain of wacky logic is to blame the DNC? Good. Keep working on that angle. Sounds promising to me.

There are several law suits. The Keyes v. Obama (Federal Court not Sacramento Court filing that is on appeal) was served on Obama just prior to his swearing in. Obama defaulted in that case. Andy Martin has an appeal going forward now in Hawaii seeking production of the vault records which are clearly of public interest.
All it will take is for one of these courts to allow discovery to be opened. Subpoena's could then be served to Hawaii and all of the colleges. Experts in immigration law and documents once presented with these records could answer this question once and for all, rather than let it drag on and grow on the internet.

HONOLULU — The state’s Department of Health director on Friday released a statement verifying the legitimacy of Sen. Barack Obama birth certificate.
The state has received multiple requests for a copy of Obama’s birth certificate. State law does not allow officials to release the birth certificate of a person to someone outside of the family. …
“There have been numerous requests for Sen. Barack Hussein Obama’s official birth certificate. State law (Hawai‘i Revised Statutes §338-18) prohibits the release of a certified birth certificate to persons who do not have a tangible interest in the vital record,” DOH Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino said.
“Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawai‘i, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawai‘i State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures. No state official, including [Republican Governor Linda Lingle], has ever instructed that this vital record be handled in a manner different from any other vital record in the possession of the State of Hawai‘i,” Fukino said.

No. Again, you're too stupid for me to insult you properly.
If Obama was born in Hawaii, he's natural born. Go away and prove me wrong on that. First go away though.
Assuming for the sake of a conversation that is hypothetical that he was not, then the law you refer to would not be construed the way you believe.
You can jump up and down if you like. Won't change anything. Turn on your television and you'll see your President on it, more than likely. And I'm certain he's still black. Yet no one but you deranged racists seems to care. Why hasn't Lindsey Graham been asking for the birth certificate? Why hasn't John McCain? Oh yeah. They still hope to be taken seriously? Why hasn't Mark Sanford or John Ensign or Sarah Palin? They hope not to be heard from again.
You keep pushing your “the election is not real and black guys can't get votes or be eligible if they do” theories. It gives me something to do while I wait for my friends to show up so we can laugh about you.

Actually all the State of Hawaii stated was that they are holding the vault records in accordance with their laws. We are deeply grateful to know they have the vault records and that they can be produced.
Actually McCain produced his records to the Senate who passed a non binding resolution that McCain was a natural born citizen. Interesting people keep trying to bring McCain into this. He lost and it is irrelevant. But for humor let's review:
John Sidney (“Slew”) McCain Sr. (August 9, 1884 –September 6, 1945) was a U.S. Navy Admiral. He held several command assignments during the Pacific campaign of World War II.
McCain was a pioneer of aircraft carrier operations[1] who in 1942 commanded all land-based air operations in support of the Guadalcanal campaign, and who ultimately in 1944–1945 aggressively led the Fast Carrier Task Force, in the Pacific Ocean theater of World War II. His operations off the Philippines and Okinawa, and air strikes against Formosa and the Japanese home islands, caused tremendous destruction of Japanese naval and air forces in the closing period of the war.[2] He died four days after the formal Japanese surrender ceremony.
He was the father of Admiral John S. McCain, Jr.; they became the first father-son pair ever to achieve four star admiral rank in the U.S. Navy. He was the grandfather of U.S. Senator from Arizona and 2008 Republican presidential nominee John S. McCain III. All three graduated from the United States Naval Academy.
John Sidney McCain Jr. (January 17, 1911 – March 22, 1981) was a four star admiral in the United States Navy who served in conflicts from the 1940s through the 1970s.
McCain grew up in Washington, D.C. and graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1931, after which he entered the submarine service. In World War II, he commanded submarines in several theaters of operation, was responsible for sinking several Japanese ships, and was decorated with both the Silver Star and Bronze Star. After the war, he held a variety of commands, specializing in amphibious warfare. He led the 1965 U.S. invasion of the Dominican Republic. He also served in several posts in Washington, including the Legislative Affairs Office and Chief of Naval Information, where he became influential in political affairs. He was a staunch anti-Communist, and was such an advocate of the importance of a strong naval presence that he became known as “Mr. Seapower”.
During the Vietnam War, McCain was Commander-in-Chief, Pacific Command (CINCPAC), commander of all U.S. forces in the Vietnam theater from 1968 to 1972. He was a stalwart supporter of President Richard Nixon's policy of Vietnamization. McCain played a significant role in the militarization of U.S. policy towards Cambodia, helping to convince Nixon to launch the 1970 Cambodian Incursion and establishing a personal relationship with Cambodian leader Lon Nol. McCain was also a proponent of the 1971 incursion into Laos. McCain retired from the Navy in 1972.

So, one the one hand we have an Admiral who is overseas serving his Country and a child is born.
For Obama we have parents that may have snuck a child into Hawaii and committed immigration fraud to register his birth.

“The child’s grandmother then knowing or learning from legal advisers how lax Hawaiian birth registration laws were in 1961, then cooks up a plan and scheme with the child’s mother, to lie to Hawaiian officials and swear and sign affidavits at the birth registry office that the child was born in Hawaii at home with no witnesses but them, in order to get the child U.S. citizenship.”
Whoa. Stop the ride. Let’s not pretend that I believe ANY of what you’ve dreamed up. But the part I quoted is the least-credible.
The birth is Jan. 4 and the announcement goes out 4 days later, as I recall.
So in the span of, what, a day, given the travel time (no direct flights to Kenya back then!), the grandmother is going to go from being totally distraught to boning up on the alleged (and TOTALLY unproven — you just threw that in there) laxity of Hawaiian birth registration laws, and not only that, reconcile with her daughter, who she has been at extreme odds with, to say it politely? Only on television.
Even if I’m wrong about the dates, you presume that the grand-mother and the mother couldn’t come up with some other way to get the child citizenship. Like, do absolutely nothing. Because he’s a citizen.
You assume, by the way, that they would not have believed they could get U.S. citizenship for the child anyway. Kenya isn’t going to win a custody battle with the U.S. Especially not in 1961, and especially not when the Kenyan father has a wife at home in Kenya.
And what is this process of “lying to Hawaiian officials and swear and sign affidavits…?” What affidavits? What officials? But really, what affidavits — can you post a link or at least fabricate the process in your mind by which these people would have accomplished that task?
They just show up in some government office with a four day old baby and say “he was born here, I swear” and the people just take their word for it? They say “he was born in, um, the hospital over there up the street. I swear. This redheaded guy saw us! Honest!” Help me out here. What forms or affidavits did they fill out?

That special legal term of art was codified by Vattel in his legal treatise The Law of Nations in 1758 in which he said that … a natural born citizen is a person born in the country to parents who are both citizens of the country.
Actually, it existed much earlier in English Common Law, and formed the foundation of US common law with respect to this. Vattel's somewhat uncommon definition is of little relevance. But it is one of the few small pieces of evidence cited. Even though the text, which was in French did not initially mention the term natural born.
So why are you ignoring the term natural born's rich history in Common Law?

Actually the courts have dismissed these cases on two grounds being mootness or lack of standing. Should Obama decide to run in 2012, which he may not due to this issue, the instant his name appears on a ballot there will be litigation. No one will wait to avoid the mootness issue.
The standing issue may resolve itself if the laws requiring candidates to produce evidence that they meet the citizenship requirement pass. Some will.
Of course with Obama now sinking faster than the Titanic and following the path blazed by Carter come 2010 red and blue fiscally responsible moderates will be replacing the idiots that have been rubber stamping these massive spending bills without reading them.

Actually contact your Congressional Representative and demand that they pass HR 1868 which would properly interpret the 14th amendment to state that at the time of birth a child to obtain US citizenship must have one parent that is a US citizen. This will end the misery of the so-called anchor baby issue and billions and billions of dollars in medical care, welfare payments and other costs associated with this problem.
As long as you have them on the phone also tell them to support HR 1207 to audit the Federal Reserve for the first time in 50 years.

CNN Boss Leans On Lou Dobbs
http://thesteadydrip.blogspot.com/2009/07/lette…
In part, Klein writes, “It seems this story is dead — because anyone who still is not convinced doesn't really have a legitimate beef.” Klein asked CNN researchers to dig into the question of why Obama couldn't produce the original birth certificate. The researchers contacted the Hawaii Health Dept. and confirmed that paper documents were discarded in 2001 when the department went paperless. That reportedly includes Obama's original birth certificate.
If Klein's statement is true, then this official statement, dated October 31, 2008, from state health director Dr. Chiyome Fukino is false:
“Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawai‘i, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawai‘i State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.”
If what Klein says is true, Fukino is lying. If what Fukino says is true, Klein is lying. It's one or the other, isn't it?
Now which is the most likely liar?

U.S. Military Bases in Foreign Countries are NOT considered U.S. Soil per the U.S. State Department's Foreign Affairs Manual.
Senate Resolution 511 passed by the Democratic lead Judiciary Committee in April 2008 to grant McCain natural born citizenship status was a scam on the American people. The U.S. Congress is out of control and is only interested in their political power and the power of their political parties and candidates and has no interest left in protecting the U.S. Constitution, its laws, or its regulations if they stand in the way of their personal political goals. McCain got that resolution as a reward from the DEMs for agreeing to keep quiet about Obama's lack of Natural Born Citizenship status since Obama's father was not a U.S. citizen, nor even an immigrant or permanent resident to the USA.

Do you ever intend to face reality? These “laws” you're referring to? They wouldn't by chance be one bill, would they/it? Not the ONE bill that has been signed by 10 congressmen, one of whom, Coleman, got pwned by Chris Matthews and admitted that he believes Barack Obama was born here?
You don't mean we're supposed to wait for that bill to pass both houses of Congress, do you? Because the chances of that happening are not as good as you may hope. A cow WILL sell you a peanut butter sandwich before that bill passes into law. It's a political stunt by those in bank-vault safe districts, thanks to Tom Delay.

All that is saying is that the State has the vault records that need to be produced to confirm the name of the hospital Obama claims he was born in. Dr. Fukino is only saying they have the vault records in accordance with Hawaii law. It says nothing about whether Obama was actually born in Hawaii.
This does raise an interesting point if it turns out that these records do say Obama was born in a taxi and not the hospital that Obama stated is Dr. Fukino liable for fraud. There are public immunities but I do not think this was a statement required by his office. It also raises the issue did he waive the privilege and is now required to produce the records.

“Actually all the State of Hawaii stated was that they are holding the vault records in accordance with their laws. We are deeply grateful to know they have the vault records and that they can be produced.”
Nope. Wrong again. Those laws the records are being held in accordance with? They expressly forbid the records from being produced. But yes, they're there.

“This does raise an interesting point if it turns out that these records do say Obama was born in a taxi and not the hospital that Obama stated is Dr. Fukino liable for fraud.”
It also raises an interesting point if Obama had never run for election, but he did. A lot of things turn on limiting ourselves to what actually happened, not what we wish would happen so that things would be more exciting or less Negroid.
But see, we're just absolutely STUCK in reality. Can't escape it. And the point is, you keep talking about what you would rather have happened. And that's understandable. You're frustrated because you don't want Obama as President. But see, he is. And no one who has any authority whatsoever is questioning that.
Please take it up with Michael Steele. Demand an on-air confrontation with your GOP leaders. Don't waste your time trying to convince liberals who read comments on an obscure online blog. Your skills are too valuable and too rare to waste.

Well, they've got something in the vault – per Dr. Fukino's very, very carefully worded statement last year – but what can be read from that “something” neither he nor his colleague have been willing in any way to discuss. They won't even confirm (or deny) that the images apparently cobbled together by Obama campaign worker Jay McKinnon (who describes himself as a “Department of Homeland Security-trained document specialist”) in June 2008 reflect the content of any COLB provided Barry Soetoro in 2007, or even whether or not the information content of those images – beyond, of course, the clear evidence that they're bogus – reflects the same information Dr. Fukino says that he has reviewed in the State of Hawaii archives.
In effect, Dr. Fukino said: “Yeah, he was born, and we've got enough proof that he was born to have issued him a Certification of Live Birth.”
Not where Barry was born. Or even whether Hawaii was calling “Negro” people “African” back in 1961.
Which, of course they weren't. I really like the modern, “Liberal,” PC use of “African” by the Obama campaign clowns when they made up this fraudulence for their Messiah. Smart enough to fumble their way around in a Macintosh with Photoshop, but too stupid to do anything like corroborative research.

Five types of citizenship mentioned in our U.S. Constitution:
http://countryfirst.bravehost.com/phpBB3/viewto…
A simple citizenship chart I prepared showing and defining the various types of citizenship mentioned in the U.S. Constitution: The type of citizen you are, i.e., Natural Born Citizen, Born Citizen, or Citizen is determined by your parents and where you were born. The subset of all of a nation's citizens which is typically the largest subset or group of a nation's citizens, are usually the Natural Born Citizens. For it is the natural born citizen group, the largest group, which typically defines a country or a nation at to its people vs. its geography. The natural born citizens are the citizens of the country who are born of two citizens of the country on the soil of the country and have the strongest natural allegiance to the country and nation. These are the people of the country who will have the strongest allegiance to their country or nation and will be least influenced by foreign forces and/or have the least allegiances to any people and forces outside the country or nation. They will have the least recent familial attachment and influence from foreign citizens. This citizenship status is by nature itself, done by the natural law of the facts itself at the instant of birth of the child, and was not created or given by any law of man.
The definition of “natural born citizen” being a person born of two citizens of a country on the soil of a country was first codified in 1758 in the legal reference book, “Law of Nations”. Those codified laws were from “natural law” of time eternal since there were countries and nations and thus the source of the term “natural” in the term “natural born citizen”. People back then naturally new what “natural born citizen” meant just like they naturally new what the term “marriage” meant in those days. Only in today's twisting of language, it depends on what the term “is” means, etc., by those with a political agenda do these terms get obfuscated. That legal reference book (Law of Nations) was used by John Jay, a legal scholar, and a key adviser to the framers of the U.S. Constitution. John Jay is the person who wrote to General George Washington, leader of the Constitutional Convention, and asked him to add the requirement to be a “natural born citizen” to the requirements to serve as President and Commander-in-Chief of our military in the interests of national security to minimize to the greatest extent any possibility of divided loyalties and allegiances with a future President by requiring that a person eligible to serve could only be a second generation American by both parents, i.e., a natural born citizen, except for the original citizens at the time the country was founded. John Jay was also one of the writers of the Federalist Papers. John Jay frequently referred to the Law of Nations as a legal reference. The new first President, General George Washington, was found to have the book open on his desk and Washington was reading some portion of it on his first day in office when a visitor came by to see him. John Jay was a recognized legal scholar in those days and later went on to serve as the first Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. More about John Jay: http://www.wallbuilders.com/LIBissuesArticles.a… Note: In this chart in the Perkins vs. Elg case, the child Elg was born in the USA to two naturalized citizens, immigrants from Sweden, so the court rightly decided the case when it concurred that she was a natural born citizen at the time of her birth. The parents can be citizens of any category of U.S. citizen (naturalized or born in the USA) but the child must be born on U.S. soil to two U.S. citizens to be considered a natural born citizen at the instant of the child's birth in the USA. The natural facts of the events itself make the child a “natural born citizen”. No law of man is required to confer that type of citizenship. And that set of facts fits Elg. The Elg decision reinforces the definition provided in the Law of Nations which was the original source legal reference book for the term when that term was put into our Constitution by John Jay and George Washington as a necessary qualification to serve as POTUS and CINC.

Narrative – How Obama is Born in Kenya but still obtains a Birth Certificate (BC) in Hawaii and/or a Certification of Live Birth (COLB):
http://countryfirst.bravehost.com/phpBB3/viewto…
I've cogitated on the “facts” about Obama over the last year and finally wrote this in June but I thought I'd re-post this suggested narrative to explain events we've seen to date regarding the Usurper in the Oval Office. Those who have twitter, feel free to “tweet” this and my other posts in my ledge at http://countryfirst.bravehost.com/phpBB3/viewfo… to all your readers. Thanks.
A proposed narrative to explain the various seemingly conflicting statements made about Obama's birth in Kenya and Hawaii:
Underage U.S. teenager gets pregnant via a significantly older married man from Kenya. An unusual event in 1961.
Mother of teenager is in total shock over the event as would have been many mothers of teenage girls getting pregnant in 1961 and says to her daughter you have ruined your life and will make going to college much harder for yourself and convinces the teenage girl to go to Kenya in the last month of her pregnancy and give up the baby to the Kenyan natural family of the natural father of the child to be raised in Kenya by them.
The Kenyan grandmother of the child attends birth in Kenyan hospital in Mombasa Kenya and is ready to take custody of the child and raise the child for the foot loose and fancy free natural father with multiple wives … and the U.S. teenage mother is supposed return to Hawaii leaving the child with the natural father's family and restart her life back in Hawaii minus the child … and go to college. In 1961, pregnant teenage girls giving up children to restart their lives anew was not unusual.
But nature throws the plan a curve ball. Maternal instincts kick in and mother cannot leave the baby in Kenya, either due to pure maternal instincts or in seeing the conditions in Kenya that her child would be raised in with a mostly absentee father over there. Thus she changes her mom's plan and she takes the baby and birth certificate issued by the Mombassa Hospital to the American Embassy or consulate in Kenya and shows them the Kenyan Birth Certificate for her child and “explains” the baby was born unexpectedly in Kenya while there visiting her “husband's” family. U.S. officials then stamp her passport as traveling with an infant child.
Mother gets on plane carrying the child and flies back to Hawaii and appears at the airport arrival with the new baby in tow, much to the shock of her mother, the child's U.S. grandmother. Baby easily is passed through U.S. entry officials due to embassy stamp on mother's passport and the supporting Kenyan birth certificate showing a U.S. citizen is the mother.
Child's U.S. grandmother is still besides herself at this change in plans by the mother of the child. The child's grandmother then knowing or learning from legal advisers how lax Hawaiian birth registration laws were in 1961, then cooks up a plan and scheme with the child's mother, to lie to Hawaiian officials and swear and sign affidavits at the birth registry office that the child was born in Hawaii at home with no witnesses but them, in order to get the child U.S. citizenship (a highly desirable status) to make future travel and life easier on the family and new child. They did this lie and cover up simply to gain U.S. citizenship for the child a highly coveted status for any child, not knowing that this child might someday grow up and try to become the President and thus risk having their whole plans and lies exposed.
Birth registration office then issues the announcements to the two newspapers, as was the offices custom at the time to send the papers lists of babies born, of the birth event which at its source was only based on the false sworn testimony of the mother. Thus the birth notices in the newspapers are not independent data, they all came from the same source, … false sworn statements from the mother and/or grandmother that the child was born in Hawaii.
Thus under this narrative the birth records in the vaults in Hawaii may be simply sworn affidavits of the mother and grandmother saying Obama was born at home with no witnesses, all based on lies and fraud, which seems to be a common occurrence with Mr. O's entire life.
A suggested narrative to explain events and facts as revealed thus far.

Excuse me, I thought this was settled. Isn't Hawaii a STATE and isn't the Health Dept. a STATE office? Didn't they verify that “In 2001 – the state of Hawaii Health Department went paperless. Paper documents were discarded*The official record of Obama's birth is now an official ELECTRONIC record Janice Okubo, spokeswoman for the Health Department told the Honolulu Star Bulletin, “At that time, all information for births from 1908 (on) was put into electronic files for consistent reporting,” she said.”

It must be very frustrating for you. We were dumb enough to vote for President Obama, how can we be expected to be rational?
Why not use the system? Call all of your Republican State and Federal legislators and demand they take action and kick that Kenyan, socialist out of office NOW. Call and email them. Then call and email again. Nothing they do today is more important that this. Go to the top, Michael Steele. Provide the same links and other concrete proof you’ve been presenting here today.
I wouldn’t bother your Democrat legislators because they won’t listen. They were dumb enough to vote for President Obama so they are a lost cause. Bring it up after Church tomorrow. Email all of your friends. Go door to door. Take it to the streets.
If I truly believed a foreigner was POTUS I would be all over this. I wouldn't be posting here until I contacted my State and Federal legislators. I would do it every day till they took action. Online petitions are OK but go to the legislators and demand they do their jobs today.
Also suggest that all of them start wearing their BC next to their Flag pin as a statement.

Bingo! Obama's father was not a citizen of the USA, nor even an immigrant or even a permanent resident. Per Vattel he is not a natural born citizen or even a native of the USA. Per Vattel he follows the condition of his father. And that is confirmed by the British Nationality Act of 1948 which made Obama a British Subject at Birth via his father. Obama was born either pure British or with dual citizenship at birth and thus can never be a Natural Born Citizen of the USA per the founders and framers intent.

Are you suggesting that even if a certified Birth Certificate was issued (to who?)
Would you also require transcripts, class attendance, sworn statements of fellow students, and teachers, ad nauseaum … to satisfy every possible birther demand wether or not the
United States constitution requires it?
Where does it stop?
When the birther's exhaust this angle to undermine, and upsurp the authority and power of a sitting President in the execution of his Office, what will be the next arguement?
That Obama is a Communist, Socialist, Liberal, Democrat, or just a black, non-Republican?

There has never been any evidence that Obama's mother ever traveled to Kenya, least of which giving birth in Kenya. As to the stupid rendition that she was sent there to have a baby, it makes absolutely no sense. Obama's father was studying in the US when he was born. To think that Obama's mother will go to Kenya all by herself, without her husband or member of her own family, to stay and have a baby, is total nonsense and lunacy. All you racist birthers need to get a life.

In fact, Obama's grandmother denied that Obama was born in Kenya so there are at least two more plausible explanations
1. Obama's grandmother thought they were talking about her son, President Obama's father
2. Obama's grandmother interpreted the question to be “were you in Mombasa when he was born”
Since the translation was from English to Swahili to Mrs Obama's native tongue and back.

The full tape transcription makes clear that this phone conversation has not been represented accurately. There never was a statement by Sarah Obama at any point in this phone call saying or intending to say that Barack Obama Jr. was born in Kenya. Sarah Obama herself said that Obama was born in Hawaii and never said differently. There was a confusion over the meaning of where Mrs. Obama was “present” when Obama was born in Hawaii, but not over whether Obama was born in Hawaii

About Obama's grandmother “witnessing his birth in Kenya”:
No, Obama's grandmother DIDN'T say he was born in Kenya
http://www.salon.com/politics/war_room/2009/07/…
“Among those on television who've been covering the sudden public resurgence of the Birther movement — but in a much more responsible way than Lou Dobbs — is MSNBC's Chris Matthews. The other day, he beat up pretty badly on Rep. John Campbell, R-Calif., who's a co-sponsor of the “Birther bill” that would require future presidential candidates to provide proof of their natural-born citizenship. Thursday, he hosted Watergate burglar turned radio host G. Gordon Liddy, who's fallen under the Birthers' sway.
Liddy himself looked decidedly unwell, and sounded out of sorts — even Matthews seemed to realize that making him into a piñata would be unsporting. I'm not going to do it either, but you can watch the video below.
I'm posting on the appearance, though, because of something Liddy said during it: “You've got a deposition, which is a sworn statement, from the step-grandmother, who says, 'I was present and saw him born in Mombasa, Kenya.'”
Liddy got this particular myth a little garbled, but it's a favorite of the Birthers'. I've covered it before, but it's worth posting on now, I think, because cable news is just getting back to this story (there was some coverage late last year, when the Supreme Court declined to hear one of the Birther lawsuits) and hosts like Matthews don't know all the crazy twists of the conspiracy theory well enough to knock them down.
What Liddy was referring to is actually an affidavit filed by a street preacher named Ron McRae, who conducted an interview with Sarah Obama, the second wife of President Obama's grandfather, through a translator. (Sarah Obama is not the president's biological grandmother, but he calls her “Granny Sarah.”)
In that interview, Sarah Obama does in fact say at one point that she was there for her grandson's birth. But that was a mistake, a confusion in translation. As soon as a jubilant McRae began to press her for further details about her grandson being born in Kenya, the family realized the mistake and corrected him. And corrected him. And corrected him. (The audio is available for download.
No matter, though, because people who believe in a conspiracy theory simply hear what they want to hear. So some Birther sites have posted transcripts and YouTube clips that end abruptly with the mistranslation and don't include the corrections. McRae, for his part, included the full translation in his affidavit — he thinks it's all just part of the conspiracy. “Some few younger relatives, including [translator Vitalis Akech Ogombe],” McRae wrote in his court filing, “have obviously been versed to counter such facts with the common purported information from the American news media that Obama was born in Hawaii.”
Here's the conversation:
MCRAE: Could I ask her about his actual birthplace? I would like to see his birthplace when I come to Kenya in December. Was she present when he was born in Kenya?
OGOMBE: Yes. She says, yes, she was, she was present when Obama was born.
MCRAE: When I come in December. I would like to come by the place, the hospital, where he was born. Could you tell me where he was born? Was he born in Mombasa?
OGOMBE: No, Obama was not born in Mombasa. He was born in America.
MCRAE: Whereabouts was he born? I thought he was born in Kenya.
OGOMBE: No, he was born in America, not in Mombasa.
MCRAE: Do you know where he was born? I thought he was born in Kenya. I was going to go by and see where he was born.
OGOMBE: Hawaii. Hawaii. Sir, she says he was born in Hawaii. In the state of Hawaii, where his father was also learning, there. The state of Hawaii.”
Any of you birthers know how to translate Kenyan?

Actually contact your Congressional Representative and demand that they pass HR 1868 which would properly interpret the 14th amendment to state that at the time of birth a child to obtain US citizenship must have one parent that is a US citizen.
Of course under 1868 Obama would still have been eligible. But to abandon well established constitutional practice with a law seems rather unlikely.
The fourteenth mention
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.
This clearly includes children born to those who are aliens to our country. There are no restrictions other than 'subject to the jurisdiction thereof' a term which excludes children of ambassadors and invading military.

It's “reason and logic” that gives me to “dislike” (too mild a word by far!) our Fraudulence-in-Chief.
My intentions are to amuse myself while pursuing Barry Soetoro's arrest, indictment, conviction, and incarceration on myriads of state and federal criminal charges, with the added hope that exercise of the RICO Act will catch up the entirety of the National Socialist Party leadership and as many of the Republicans as can be managed. Destroying ACORN will be incidental thereunto.
I'm just intent upon the equivalent of debriding a decubitus ulcer on the American body politic. Gotta get all that corrupt, necrotic crap out and off before healing can begin.
And if you're an Obamaphile, who could possibly describe you as susceptible to “convincing,” anyway?

None of these address the issue of natural born citizenship. While in some cases judges who disagreed with their colleagues invoked Vattel, their words have no legal relevance and in cases where Vattel was mentioned together with Common Law, common law prevailed. As I pointed out, Vattel became relevant for laws between nations, but he was never of any influence in the realm of citizenship.
So let's explore some examples of these so called Vattel references in supreme court rulings.
I searched through the records and found 14 hits for Vattel
SOSA V. ALVAREZ-MACHAIN
[Opinion]“When the United States declared their independence, they were bound to receive the law of nations, in its modern state of purity and refinement.” Ware v. Hylton, 3 Dall. 199, 281 (1796) (Wilson, J.). In the years of the early Republic, this law of nations comprised two principal elements, the first covering the general norms governing the behavior of national states with each other: “the science which teaches the rights subsisting between nations or states, and the obligations correspondent to those rights,” E. de Vattel, The Law of Nations, Preliminaries §3 (J. Chitty et al. transl. and ed. 1883) (hereinafter Vattel) (footnote omitted), or “that code of public instruction which defines the rights and prescribes the duties of nations, in their intercourse with each other,” 1 James Kent Commentaries *1. This aspect of the law of nations thus occupied the executive and legislative domains, not the judicial. See 4 W. Blackstone, Commentaries on the Laws of England 68 (1769) (hereinafter Commentaries) (“[O]ffenses against” the law of nations are “principally incident to whole states or nations”).
922 LUTHER V. BORDEN

The definition of “natural born citizen” being a person born of two citizens of a country on the soil of a country was first codified in 1758 in the legal reference book, “Law of Nations”.</bklockquote>
Ignoring that the definition of natural born had existed since Calvin's case in 1608 and did not require that both parents were citizens. And strange how the courts have never relied on Vattel to settle this matter but instead relied on Common Law and Blackstone.

“A man's reach should exceed his grasp, else what's a heaven for?”
Or something like that. I'm not “upset” that Barry Soetoro won the election; the choice was between cholera and bowel cancer, and bowel cancer “won.”
I'm “upset” (if anything) that this reeking, lying sonofabitch should've gotten even to throw his hat into the National Socialist Party's ring to contend for the nomination in the first place. He is so bogus, so thoroughly rotten, such an unwavering “red diaper baby” of a stinking Tranzi that the chain should've been pulled on him before he even slimed into the Illinois state senate.
I don't “dislike” him for the tiny trace of Luo blood in his body (that “touch of Negritude” that's supposed to be so powerful) but because of what we'll call for courtesy's sake his politics.
If he were as pale as milk, blue-eyed, blond-haired, and his first name was “Sven,” I'd hate him no less heartily – and so should you, if you have any goddam sense at all.

SCOTUS will rule on this by the end of the year as to Vattel's influence. Your opinion and mine is not what counts. The U.S. Supreme Court will speak to the issue of Article II natural born citizenship to Constitutional Standards since Mr. Obama with his arrogance for the Constitution has challenged its meaning with his usurping the Oval Office. He asserts it means simple 14th amendment citizenship. But the words natural born are not mentioned in the 14th Amendment and they are in Article II. The 14th Amendment does not trump and did not amend Article II. Chief Justice Marshall stated in a land mark decision taught us that all words in the Constitution are there for a reason and cannot be discarded or ignored. Obama has created the legal necessity to have Article II natural born citizenship defined once and for all. I believe Vattel is correct and is part of common law and prior court precedence including as late as 1939 in the Perkins v Elg case. But SCOTUS will decide this. The Constitution and the Republic demand it. See the chart below for more on citizenship terms and definitions and legal reference for same.

It is so funny that when McCain was running no one said anything about him not being born in America. As a matter of fact most were voting for him. Now McCain saying Obama is not American is like the pot calling the kettle black. Let it go people, if the man is President and is an illegal then what does that say about America? That a man can rise to the highest office in the land and no one catches that he is illegal? If that is the case then we as a Country have more problems then the birther conspiracy. P.S.

Unlikely. There are just no cases pending which stand a chance to make it to SCOTUS and being ruled upon. SCOTUS will continue to deny the cases for obvious reasons.
That you call Obama arrogant or usurping shows how little you know about these issues. I am sure that you are familiar with the de facto officer doctrine?
By no credible standard is Obama a usurper.
Perkins v Elg also does not help your case. It shows that a natural born citizen does not lose her birth right due to actions of her parents.
Good luck.

Oh, the Republicans hate the hell out of libertarians. As one astonished Republican flunky reported, wide-eyed and pale, after meeting with a group of libertarians back in the '70s:
“They're pro-choice on EVERYTHING!”
Think “Bourbon Democrat,” fitz, and you'll have something of a handle on what libertarians want of civil government. Only a bit less.
Well, hell. A lot less.
As for our “wealthiest planet” (yeah, I know; you mean “nation”), the Republicans (as Whigs and then under that “try to pass as Jeffersonian” handle) have been plundering that wealth ever since they cankered up on the scene back in the early 19th Century, by way of Clay's “American System.” The Democrats went into the tank pretty much completely by 1912, when the progressives/populists/”Liberal” assholes took over and started sliding socialism into the nation's weasand like a well-sharpened assassin's knife.
All of that wealth, fitz, could and would be much greater if the people producing it could keep more of it in their hands, instead of being subjected to government (and government suck-ups') depredations.

Nah. “The wealthy” have always bought government power, the better to screw the non-wealthy. What part of the long and filthy history of the Whig Party (and its false front, the Republican Party) don't you understand?
Big money always buys (or rents) politicians. The only way to keep big money from buying advantage in the form of government goons-with-guns holding the “big money” types victims down for gang rape is denying the politicians the power to do what the “big money” guys want done.
Small government – confined, constrained, highly limited, “frugal” (in Jefferson's word) – is what you want, if you're not a total stupe. You want the officers of your government to be pretty much helpless and powerless and able to function only as “public servants” and not as civil masters.
“The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the Constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first.“
As for who “demanded children be in schools rather than factories,” it wasn't the monied interests. It was organized labor. Child labor out-competed them in a lot of jobs. The government indoctrination systems where the kids wound up, now…
Well, that's a wonderful story. Look up Horace Mann and his ilk, and then look into the writings of teacher John Taylor Gatto.
Especially look into the history of the Pledge of Allegiance and find online images of the “Bellamy salute.”

Jeez, fitz, you haven't hung with libertarians much at all, have you? We've got “positive vision” oozing from our sweaty pores.

Ayn Rand was right; more people can be engaged through fiction writing done properly.
But I didn't come up through Mrs. O'Connor. I only read Atlas Shrugged after I'd read The Fountainhead, and I didn't read either until I was in med school. I went through all of her expostulatory prose first – the stuff she'd published in The Ayn Rand Reader and journals like that, gathered into anthologies. Her essays. When I got to her fiction, I found that it mostly sucked. Heinlein and Eric Frank Russell and H. Beam Piper had gotten there first.
Want to read a recent instantiation of the libertarian “positive vision,” fitz? Look for Aaron Zelman and L. Neil Smith's novel Hope (2001). An excerpt is online at:

The politics in the novel (if you could call the attitude Hornberger put into it “politics”) was “screw the regular Army, let's get this horrible, bloody, awful job done.” Sure as hell reflected my attitude toward the pompous, useless, “SJ” Briggs-Meyers types who tend to dominate any organization, from the military to government to the medical profession.
Me, I'm an “NT” and I hate their guts.
Roll psychology and sociology into politics, and you've got von Mises' praxeology. I suppose I was praxeologically bound to be a libertarian. I'm sane, rational, and decidedly not a “True Believer.”
The organization clowns – think Dilbert's Pointy-Haired Boss – can't stand that.

why has obama spent almost $1,000,000.00 on lawyers and legal fees ?
just to fight the lawsuits and cases against him.
why dont he just produce the goods? and put an end to it?
ya know why? cause he does not have one.
anyone who spends a million bucks to keep his long form birth certificate hidden. obviously has none. and is a fraud.

this just in….since the mainstream news won't cover it…..
Per information derived in support of a lawsuit filed with the Federal District Court of Columbus, GA, in the matter of Army Major Stefan Frederick Cook's demand that Obama prove his eligibility to be President before his obeying orders to return to service, Atty. Orly Taitz' private investigator uncovered that Obama may have used up to 149 different addresses and 39 different social security numbers prior to becoming President. Moreover, the social security number most commonly used by Obama was issued by the state of Connecticut, 119 years ago. Obama has never resided in Connecticut, not even 119 years ago. Rather than have this lawsuit publicized, the Army revoked Major Cook's orders, but the following day strong-armed Major Cook's boss, Larry Grise, at Cook's civilian job with Simtech, to fire Cook. Simtech has a contract with the Department of Defense.

Obama has created the legal necessity to have Article II natural born citizenship defined once and for all
That's a legal question and as I have attempted to show the courts have no business here as this is a non-justiciable political question. In other words: Separation of Powers. The Courts do not get the judge the eligibility of a duly elected President. Combine this with the legal doctrine of standing and you can be certain why the courts will not hear this issue. Instead of a legal necessity it is a legal non-issue. The courts also do not provide for advisory notice of what natural born in their opinion should be.
40+ cases and counting all show how the courts deal with this nontroversy (sic). Lack of standing, failure to state a claim, mootness, non-justiciable political question and so on.
What makes you believe would change their mind? People have tried FOIA, RICO, Quo Warranto, Qui Tam (False Claims Act), Interpleader, and have tried to use plaintiffs from 'interested parties' such as active military, retired military, recalled military, state senators, presidential candidates, and so forth. And nothing that suggests impresses the Courts.
Remember that the Constitution has set some pretty high standards for suits to proceed, and it would be hard to argue that those Constitutional requirements are somehow trumped by some undefined 'legal necessity'.

Chris Matthews Wrong on Obama Birth Certificate
http://www.newsmax.com/insidecover/obama_birth_…
“The indisputable fact is that Obama has not released his birth certificate, which the state of Hawaii issues for all citizens born there.
Instead, his campaign has released only his certification of live birth from the state of Hawaii, which is a document that offers a summarized version of the birth certificate.”
Somehow, you know its coming. That OMG moment is just around the corner. You can feel the inescapable reality creeping up on you. Something will leak. Someone will spill the beans.

Test-taker here could take an undoubtedly good idea, like the Federal interstate highway system or the standing armed forces, and, merely by running it through his IBM Selectric of a brain, spit out something entirely indefensible about what’s wrong with those two things.

I read the comments on this blog and I feel sick. Both my sons and my daughter are risking their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan. In the meantime some individuals on this blog are fighting and insulting each other in defense of their political party of choice. Simply because it has been asked that the president of our country supply the necessary documents proving his eligibility to hold the position of not just president of the US but also Commander in Chief of our armed forces.
As defenders of political parties and politicians are you aware of the military law that governs these officers that are defending freedom in foreign and hostile nations? Do any of you even have a clue as to the consequences an officer faces? This is not a game political or otherwise. It is no big deal to you, you can sit safe and sound in your home and use your keyboard and treat this like it is a game. Your life isn't on the line, and neither is your career.
Recently, a Major asked a necessary and lawful question. He requested constitutional validity of chain of command, equal to what was supplied by our prior Commanders in Chief. The UCMJ does not provide a means for answering this question. He pursued it in federal court, asking that his deployment be delayed, until the issue was resolved. He never attempted to slow or delay the judicial process.
How did the DOD respond? They revoked his deployment orders. If such information existed the DOD could and would have obtained it and their response would have been swift and very public. Do any of you think the DOD wants to revoke the deployment orders of ALL the officers that may ask for constitutional validity of chain of command?
Many military families and officers are now asking the same question. There is reasonable suspicion to allow us to ask the question. If we disregarded information or if we just weren't aware of it we are now.
1. A statement on the Presidents website when he was a candidate, claiming dual citizenship at birth, as his father was a British Subject when he was born and later a citizen of Kenya.
2. The definition of a natural born citizen by the Congress and the Senate when they unanimously passed SRS 511, stating that a natural born citizen is “born of American parents.”
3. DOD revocation of deployment orders of an officer, at a time when we are engaged on two fronts, and an answer to a lawful question would have sufficed.
4. This is not a political issue, it is a Constitutional issue.
The Constitution that my sons and daughter swore an oath to, as did every officer in our armed forces. While you laugh, mock and insult one another it is their asses on the line not yours.
While you defend your political parties, I pray that my kids do not get blown up or shot. I pray that they survive. We do not understand why our Commander in Chief is refusing to allow his officers to validate the Constitutional Chain of Command. We cannot and will not remain silent. Officers will have to ask the same question not to avoid their duty but to be able to perform their duty. We don't care about your politics.

No. The Democratic National Committee, who were on notice of this issue since at least December 2007 from Hillary, refused to do a legitimate job of vetting Obama. Please post anything from the DNC stating that they have vetted Obama. It does not exist. At some point the DNC decided to put their interests over the People and wanted to gain the White House more than protect the integrity of the election process by only putting eligible and fully vetted candidates on the ballot.

It is the “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” that is the important part. That would require at least one of the parents to be a citizen to be “subject to the jurisdiction thereof”. There are already immigration laws that interpret the 14th Amendment. This would be another such law. True it would go to the Supreme Court.
Also, there is a grandfather clause in this bill that would not apply to anyone born before passage of this bill.
But there is no doubt the anchor baby law needs to be changed. The cost of the medical bills for the births, the 18 years of welfare and litigation of the families trying to stay with the child need to be ended. No other Country allows this type of nonsense.
This bill may not be perfert, but there is no doubt this loophole needs to be closed.

i'd say about 99% of them are motivated by race hatred — they just can't stand it that a bi racial man is president.

I thank you and your children for their service. However, it's best for them to be with other soldiers who won't play politics with their lives.
1-Major Cook involved himself in Birther politics when he volunteered himself on February 1, 2009 for a court case.
2-He then on May 8, 2009, deliberately and falsely, volunteered to serve for one year in Afghanistan.
3-On July 8, 2009 his Temporary Restraining Order request was filed against the CinC.
This was a political setup and the Army isn't deaf, dumb and blind. The Army responded exactly the way Major Cook had to have expected. He KNEW he was never going to Afghanistan. He KNEW the Army would have to pull some last-minute deployment of another reservist. (Think of that family, while you're at it.) Think of those two wars Major Cook took so casually and the soldiers dying in them. He has placed our service members in grave danger by encouraging the crimes of mutiny and sedition and by referring to them as “war criminals” not entitled to Geneva protections. I too pray your children stay safe. I pray some terrorist group does not take Major Cook at his word.

No US president can have dual citizenship!
President Obama does not have a dual citizenship. As a child he had both a natural born US citizenship and a British citizenship. The latter one expired when he reached age of majority.
SImple facts. I give you Steinkauler who was a native born US citizen and his father took him back to his native country where he acquired a new citizenship through his father. The court ruled that when reaching age of majority Steinkauler could chose to keep his birth right citizenship which would allow him even to run for president.

not really because Obama releasing his BC never resolved the issue so it is clear that people will continue to make these ill founded claims.
Furthermore, it's a stroke of political genius where his opponents are spending time and effort on a non-issue and burden the Republican party with their outrageous beliefs.
Comment posted July 26, 2009 @ 4:42 pm
You do realize that when you are in the military you have a duty to follow orders unless patently illegal? When you chose to serve the country, you chose to obey orders by your chain of command. The issue of eligibility is of no relevance to the military and cannot be resolved through the courts as it is a political not legal question.
Major Cook volunteered and then filed a lawsuit thus his chain of command interpreted this as him having second thoughts. Since he deployed under CO-ADOS he had the right to withdraw his decision any time before deployment.
. Do any of you think the DOD wants to revoke the deployment orders of ALL the officers that may ask for constitutional validity of chain of command?
Of course not, for those deploying under non COADOS there are solutions such as court martial. Do you remember Michael New who refused to wear UN patch under the claim that the war was unconstitutional. He was not allowed to explain his refusal to obey orders by pointing to a clearly political question beyond the control of the courts.
It's touch when one has to serve a President with whom one does not agree. But we all made choices.

Per information derived in support of a lawsuit filed with the Federal District Court of Columbus, GA, in the matter of Army Major Stefan Frederick Cook's demand that Obama prove his eligibility to be President before his obeying orders to return to service,
The case was thrown out. Orly is attempting to refile in Florida…
Atty. Orly Taitz' private investigator uncovered that Obama may have used up to 149 different addresses and 39 different social security numbers prior to becoming President.
No such evidence exist other than someone not understanding how public databases can be notoriously messy.
Rather than have this lawsuit publicized, the Army revoked Major Cook's orders, but the following day strong-armed Major Cook's boss, Larry Grise, at Cook's civilian job with Simtech, to fire Cook. Simtech has a contract with the Department of Defense.
There is no evidence that Simtech was strong armed. In fact, Florida is at will employment so Cook may not have much of a case. He can attempt to show that the military somehow forced Simtech to fire him. But there is no real independent evidence of that so far.
From the statements released it appears that Major Cook's security clearance was suspended pending review. Without a security clearance he could neither deploy nor continue in his present civil position.
Once Orly manages to find a local counsel and can appropriately file, we may hear more about the case.
In the mean time the judge was not impressed
This cause comes before the Court on pro se Plaintiff Major Stefan Frederick Cook’s Application for Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction. The Court observes that Plaintiff’s Application is not accompanied by a complaint and, therefore, fails to comply with the requirements of Local Rules 4.05(b)(2) and 4.06(b)(1). Furthermore, as the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals has observed, “[t]here is no such thing as a suit for a traditional injunction in the abstract.” Klay v. United Healthgroup, Inc., 376 F.3d 1092, 1097 (11th Cir. 2004).
Orly is trying to refile without having to pay new filing fees but now she seems to be looking for Florida counsel. Since Orly has not been admitted to Florida Bar, she cannot represent Cook without some local counsel. Which is why Cook initially filed as 'pro se'.
Orly's 'defense' for failing to correctly file? That the rules for the court are unusual. Never mind that she as counsel is supposed to know the local rules per local rules.
It's a tragi-comedy.

evreport: Think of those two wars Major Cook took so casually and the soldiers dying in them. He has placed our service members in grave danger by encouraging the crimes of mutiny and sedition and by referring to them as “war criminals” not entitled to Geneva protections. I too pray your children stay safe. I pray some terrorist group does not take Major Cook at his word.

•Seal all of your historical records from public viewing Obama has not sealed all his historical records from public viewing
•Hire three entire lawfirms to fight the wave of lawsuits And win them all
•Waste hundreds of hours of valuable court time President Obama did not file these lawsuits
•Turn your promise of transparencey and truthfullnes into a sham President Obama provided his COLB
•Engage in a campaign of spreading numerous lies and untruths to hide the truth You are accusing President Obama for the foolish rumours and lies?
•Send your foot soldiers to scrub internet information that conflict with your lies Huh

People can debate the meaning of the term “natural-born citizen” as long as they like but this is clear: If, in 1961, 17 year old Ann Dunham gave birth to a child on foreign soil whose father was not an American citizen, then the Immigration and Nationality Act at that time denied Barack Obama any right to American citizenship of any kind. Therefore if at the time of his birth Obama was ineligible for American citizenship of any kind, then he cannot be a “natural-born citizen”. This is true even if the Immigration and Nationality Act was changed 33 years after he was born. Even if the law was retroactively changed to grant citizenship (but not “natural-born” citizenship) to some of those who had at birth been denied it. If a person is not at the time of his birth an American citizen, he cannot be a natural-born citizen. Therefore, that person is ineligible under Article II, Section1 for the Office of President of the United States.
Clearing the Smoke on Obama’s Eligibility: An Intelligence Investigator’s June 10 Report

No evidence that this was commissioned by a retired CIA officer. In fact, the 'report' makes many of the same mistakes as other reports. Note the absence of any evidence that Obama was born on foreign soil.
Much ado about nothing really but funny that they attempt to add 'credibility' by mentioning a retired CIA officer…

There are a lot of laws involved, even if O was born in Hawaii. This is an excerpt from todays article in Rightsideoflife.com the remarks are by a very knowledgeable Constitutional attorney.
Its not about one man, its about our Constitution!
When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.’s children:
British Nationality Act of 1948 (Part II, Section 5): Subject to the provisions of this section, a person born after the commencement of this Act shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if his father is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time of the birth.
In other words, at the time of his birth, Barack Obama Jr. was both a U.S. citizen (by virtue of being born in Hawaii) and a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies (or the UKC) by virtue of being born to a father who was a citizen of the UKC.
Obama’s British citizenship was short-lived. On Dec. 12, 1963, Kenya formally gained its independence from the United Kingdom. Chapter VI, Section 87 of the Kenyan Constitution specifies that:
1. Every person who, having been born in Kenya, is on 11th December, 1963 a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies or a British protected person shall become a citizen of Kenya on 12th December, 1963…
2. Every person who, having been born outside Kenya, is on 11th December, 1963 a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies or a British protected person shall, if his father becomes, or would but for his death have become, a citizen of Kenya by virtue of subsection (1), become a citizen of Kenya on 12th December, 1963.
As a citizen of the UKC who was born in Kenya, Obama’s father automatically received Kenyan citizenship via subsection (1). So given that Obama qualified for citizen of the UKC status at birth and given that Obama’s father became a Kenyan citizen via subsection (1), it follows that Obama did in fact have Kenyan citizenship after 1963. …
But the paper failed to note that the Kenyan Constitution prohibits dual citizenship for adults. Kenya recognizes dual citizenship for children, but Kenya’s Constitution specifies that at age 21, Kenyan citizens who possesses citizenship in more than one country automatically lose their Kenyan citizenship unless they formally renounce any non-Kenyan citizenship and swear an oath of allegiance to Kenya.
Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982.
Again, Leo Donofrio’s case is premised on Barack Obama’s citizenship at birth, regardless of what a COLB (certificate of live birth, which isn’t the full, “vault” copy) has to say. And, in theory, it doesn’t matter whether or not Barack Obama’s citizenship changed a day, month, year or years after he was born; it’s at birth, according to Leo, that counts.
If you will recall from one of Leo Donofrio’s interviews, he mentioned that even the Founding Fathers had to “grandfather” themselves into the potentiality of being President, thusly (from Article 2, Section1):
…or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution…
Remember: the Founding Fathers were originally born (at birth) in another country, namely (in some cases), England. They were therefore born as His Majesty’s subjects. And, like Barack Obama, they would have had dual citizenship (for a time) as well! That’s why, according to Leo, they had to put in this clause, else they would have never qualified.
Why did this matter so much? The first Americans literally fought with blood, sweat, tears and treasure to found a new nation. The Founders didn’t want, say, an English monarch to therefore be able to take on the office of President; too much undue foreign influence. The same holds true today.
So, unless Barack Obama was born before or on September 17, 1787, he would not qualify for this clause.
Therefore, as someone who has been rather intimate with this story long before the press opened their recent brouhaha over the birth certificate, there is more to the story than simply a piece of paper. As such, I think it’s important to remind the media that they shouldn’t be overplaying their hand and, even more importantly, they shouldn’t be shunning those of us who continue to question by presenting endless diatribes of leading conclusions.

As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.’s children:
May I remind you of a very similar case, namely Steinkauler? Obtaining at birth or during childhood a second nationality because of the actions/status of your parents does not cause one to lose one's natural birth right. In fact when reaching age of majority the child can elect to remain native born US citizen and run for presidency.
The legal information shows that your 'constitutional expert' is lacking somewhat.

I was under no circumstances a supporter of John McCain or Barak Obama, and for the same reason: I think they were both bad choices to lead our country.
The difference between the birth circumstances of McCain and Obama are like the differences between apples and organges: they are both fruit, but different. McCain was born to two parents who were US citizens and were of an age to confer citizenship to their offspring regardless of where the child was born (incidently, he was born on US soil in Panama CZ). Obama, on the other hand, may or may not have been born in US Territory, but his father was a British subject by his Kenyan birth, and his mother was not of an age and illegibity to confer citizenship. A Certification of Birth IS NOT a bith certificate ~ his sister, who acknowledges being born in Indonesia, has a Certification of Birth issued by the State of Hawai'i. To respond to the “birth announcement” in the paper: I can put a birth announcement in my local paper announcing the birth of my grandchildren born out of state.
Obama has the power to put all this to rest by merely releasing the long form Birth Certificate; why does he choose not to? This is not a question of Democrat or Republican; black or white ~ it is mere a question of the Constitution.

Two problems. A certification of birth is indeed per the Department Of Health of Hawaii the only Birth Certificate, second of all there is no evidence that Obama's sisters has such a certification of birth. Those are myths,
To respond to the “birth announcement” in the paper: I can put a birth announcement in my local paper announcing the birth of my grandchildren born out of state.
Problem is that the announcements were placed by the newspaper based on lists provided to them by the state.

You reveal your politics because all you birthers, no matter how you try to disguise yourselves and trick us liberals, can't seem to stop yourselves from parroting whatever the talking point du jour is, which is why ALL of you keep repeating, “Obama has the power to put all this to rest by merely releasing the long form Birth Certificate”, in spite of the fact that Obama has already been more forthcoming with documentation than any other candidate, including McCain, who actually was born on foreign soil.
Obama already provided all the info; get off of right wing sites and you might find that out – if you really wanted to, which you don't, because you're a racist and that is what is really at the bottom of all you birthers screaming about the Constitution.
That's why it's one bullshit charge after another with you trolls; you don't care which charge against him sticks, you just desperately need something to discredit him, because you can't stand a smart black man in the White House.

So we are going to base the credibility of Obama being a natural born citizen on an ad in a newspaper?
He is not a natural born citizen based on the fact that his father was not a citizen of the U.S. at the time of Obama Jr. birth. “Natural born citizen are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens.” Vattel “Law of Nations” It is the only position in the United States that requires one to be a NBC.

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

Of course not, the ads merely support the fact that his COLB shows him born on US soil

Vattel's law of nation has no relevance here. Let me quote from a Court decision
The policy and legislation of the American Colonies, from their earliest times until the Revolution, was adapted to foster immigration, and to bestow upon foreigners all the rights of natural born subjects. And this policy continued unchanged in the thirteen original states, while they were united by the Articles of Confederation. The uniform course was, to extend, not to abridge, the right of citizenship. The common law by which all persons born within the king’s allegiance, became subjects, whatever were the situation of their parents, became the law of the colonies, and so continued, while they were connected with the crown of Great Britain. It was thus the law of each and all of the states at the Declaration of Independence, and so remained until the National Constitution went into effect, that a child born within their territory and liegeance respectively, though of alien parents, who were abiding temporarily, thereby became a citizen of the state of which he was a native. The Constitution of the United States, us well as those of all the thirteen old states, pre-supposed the existence of the common law, and was founded upon its principles, so far as they were applicable to our situation and form of government. And to a limited extent, the principles of the common law prevail in the United States, as a system of national jurisprudence.
There is no evidence that Vattel has any relevance when it comes to what is a 'natural born citizen', instead Common Law is the guiding principle which shows anyone born on US soil to be a natural born citizen, regardless of the nationality of the parents. There are minor exceptions, none of which are applicable to President Obama.

Leo Donofrio's opinion on Lynch v. Clarke: “New York courts have no power to define the meaning of “natural born citizen”… they prove that there are differing opinions as to the meaning of the nbc clause and they bear further proof that we need a solid legal definition for the sake of the nation's sanity. The greater amount of authority is that a nbc must be born on the soil to two parents who are citizens… But due to the fact that there are historical references not seeing it that way, it's important that people understand Obama could not have committed a crime or fraud as to the pure legal nbc issue… he had every right to view himself as a natural born citizen… even if I do not agree at all that he is. That's why I don't call him a “usurper”, he knows he is on sketchy ground, but assuming he was born in Hawaii, there was no fraud perpetrated by his assuming being born on US soil was enough…” http://naturalborncitizen.wordpress.com/2009/04…

You seem to be unfamiliar with precedent cases. But I understand that you may not believe the NY Supreme Court. What about the CA Supreme court then which cited the NY Supreme Court ruling?
Or the US Supreme Court in Wong Kim Ark?
That all children born within the dominion of the United States of foreign parents holding no diplomatic office became citizens at the time of their birth does not appear to have been contested or doubted until more than fifty years after the adoption of the Constitution, when the matter was elaborately argued in the Court of Chancery of New York and decided upon full consideration by Vice Chancellor Sandford in favor of their citizenship. Lynch v. Clark, (1844) 1 Sandf.Ch. 583.
There is just no 'greater amount of authority' that suggests that nbc requires one to be born to 2 US citizens, in fact US courts have almost consistently ruled the opposite, historical references, scholarly papers, congressional discussions, opinions of the attorney generals all have done the same.

Correction: I stated that Vattel had been cited 14 times. This is unfortunately limited to cases after 1990 and historical cases.
Note: Vattel, a Swiss philisopher and international law expert (per Encyclopedia Britannica), took the position that citizenship at birth should derive from the child's father's citizenship, regardless of location of birth. We note that, unlike Story, Blackstone, et al, Vattel's statement is not included as instructive in THE FOUNDERS' CONSTITUTION , or in any of the law review articles discussing the original intent of the clause, which we have located to date . A quick search in Westlaw (paid subscription required – “Vattel”) indicates that the U.S. Supreme Court has quoted and/or referenced de Vattel approximately 150 times.

The hospital's name has no relevance to the fact that he was born on US soil. Primary evidence are the birth certificate, which per Hawaiian law is equivalent to a 'vault copy' if it still exists. Newspaper articles also are primary sources if the information is from the same time period.

Even World Net Daily has reported that the COLB presented by President Obama is authentic.
Read that again.
Here's the link:
http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageI…
Here's what you need to read when you get there:
“However, FactChecker.org says it obtained Obama's actual certification of live birth and that the document was indeed real. The site discredited some of the claims of Internet bloggers, such as that the certificate as viewed in a scanned copy released by Obama's campaign lacked a raised seal. FactChecker.org also established that many of the alleged flaws in the document noted by bloggers were caused by the scanning of the document.
A separate WND investigation into Obama's certification of live birth utilizing forgery experts also found the document to be authentic. The investigation also revealed methods used by some of the bloggers to determine the document was fake involved forgeries, in that a few bloggers added text and images to the certificate scan that weren't originally there.”
Wow. Got that? Authentic. Got that? People claiming otherwise added stuff that wasn't there before.
As if that wasn't enough, here's a point about the claim that Obama supposedly lost his citizenship as a boy in Indonesia:
“In short, the suit claims Obama was not born an American citizen; lost any hypothetical American citizenship he had as a child (Editor's note: This point is not supported by U.S. citizenship law); may not now be an American citizen and even if he is, may hold dual citizenships with other countries.”
So how about it, birthers? You ready to call it quits now that even World Net Daily has given up?
Oh, wait, that World Net Daily article was published August 23, 2008, ELEVEN MONTHS ago. That can only mean that 24 ahead dot com and every other loser who cited WND in reliance on this stupid conspiracy was never serious to begin with!

This is no longer a political question, that ended when the president took the oath of office. As for the individual that posted that some other individual was deployed because the Major wasn't, “think of that family.” We always have our military families in our thoughts and in our prayers. But let me be very clear, the major did not ask for his orders to be rescinded, he asked that this very important issue be resolved. He asked the question many of our officers are asking in private and amongst themselves. The punative measures that the DOD took against an officer with 21 years of service was is and will always be wrong. If bullying his employer to fire him was a warning, to discourage others from presenting the same concern, it won't work because what has happened is that this issue has been brought to the attention of many individuals who in the past had not paid much if any attention. Now we are angry as hell.

I see, you are perhaps unfamiliar with the term “political question”. It is a legal term which means that due to the separation of powers, the courts cannot address the question. Since Congress, the legislative branch, certified the President and he was sworn in, only Congress can remove the President through the process of impeachment.
Major Cook's total tenure is 21 years, but many of them in inactive duty. The military had no choice when Cook went the route of the federal courts in which he asked for Conscientious Objector status. They could have court martialed Major Cook but a much better solution was to grant him his request, implicitly made. After all the military has no standing to resolve Major Cook's issue and neither do the Federal Courts.
This may be, in your mind, a very important issue, but it is beyond the reach of the courts.
As to the military suspending his security clearance that again is SOP.
I understand you are angry but it seems you're putting a lot of blame onto the government or the courts.

Per Hawaiian law COLB is all you are going to get. Since there will be no courts of law enforcements requesting it, and since the long form is likely totally beyond reach, the issue seems resolved, much to the dislike of some.
Good luck, so far the courts have been less than forthcoming in granting the unusual request, mostly because of lack of standing.

“so far” – well that part was accurate.
IMHO the eligibility lawyers are trying to drive the wide end of the wedge in first. No one who has an ounce of strategic sense wants a federal trial in DC. There would be about as much chance of getting an action against AKA Obama in DC as there was of getting a conviction against Marion Berry.
Our efforts begin at the local level.
It is highly unlikely that not even one jurisdiction will take action on the AGJ presentments and other Citizen Grand Jury indictments. All we need is one jurisdiction to order “Discovery.” The case against AKA OBAMA is unique because it will be over in the Discovery phase, as the first step in a criminal complaint. All we need is one criminal investigation of election fraud or other charges in one county.
The goal of the project I support is not to convict and punish AKA Obama but to discover what AKA OBAMA doesn’t want us to know, and why he doesn’t want us to know it. Our goal will be achieved without a trial or a verdict.
Our goal is to present indictments in every jurisdiction of the union:
50 States
3,007 entities named “County”
16 Boroughs in Alaska
11 Census Areas in Alaska (areas not organized into Boroughs)
64 Parishes in Louisiana
42 Independent Cities (1 in Maryland, 1 in Missouri, 1 in Nevada, and the remainder in Virginia)
1 District – the Federal District or District of Columbia.
For a total of 3,191 opportunities to bring criminal charges against offending politicians. We still have a long way to go.
Can one honestly surmise that there is not one prosecutor or judge in the entire nation who questions AKA OBAMA’s eligibility to be President?

very good! When you can't defend your position with bogus facts, pull the “race card”! I am of “mixed race” and personally I would love to see “an intellegent black man” in the White House! and you are sadly mistaken to state that the Certification of Birth is the only certificate used in Hawai'i. There is a long version and on the letterhead from the Dept. of Health, State of Hawai'i, Dr. Chiyome Fukino writes:
“I, as Director of Health for the State of Hawai'i, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these types of vital records have personally seen and verified that the Hawai'i State Department of Health has Sen. Obama's original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and proceedures.”
Futher information is available on Hawai'i's own web site regarding the eligibility of applying for Hawaiian Home Lands. They won't accept the Certification of Birth as proof of Hawaiian ancestry or birth in Hawaii. Requirements are that you must have a long version birth certificate.
The truth of the matter is, the birth certificate is a moot point: Obama Jr's father was a British subject at the time of his birth and therefore, Obama, Jr is a British subject. He is not constitutionally qualified to hold the office of President of the United States, no matter how you spin it.
There is a great crime being perpetrated, and you seem to be too blinded by your idol-worship to see it!

nbc1,
You cite many cases most of which are speaking of Citizen not natural born citizen.
Why did the founders make a distiction between the qualification for President vs. Representitive:
Article I Sec.2 “No person shall be a Representitive ….,and been seven years a citizen of the United States”; Article II sec.1 “No person except a natural born citizen… shall be eligible to the office of President…”
Vattel's “The Law of Nations” was widely read by the founders.
Benjamin Franklin's letter to Charles Dumas(publisher) “I am much obliged by the kind present you have made us of your editions of Vattel. It came to us in good season; when the circumstances of a rising state make it necessary frequently to consult the Law of Nations. Accordingly, that copy which I kept, has been continually in the hands of the members of our Congress, now sitting”.
I agree with Donofrio that the meaning of natual born citizen needs to be resolved in the U.S. Supreme Court -not by Congress & not by a State Supreme Court.

What did they investigate? Nothing. Another worthless article trying to create something out of thin air.
McCain was not natural born either. That's why they lied and then admitted he was born at Colon. Why else would they vote in the Senate but then not even think about Obama, who no one knows anything about until age 22, and even through then, he has hidden every last document.

Silly. Just silly. You can bet any amount of money you have left under your mattress that “not even one” jurisdiction will ever take up any American Grand Jury “indictment” and use it to commence any sort of case against the President (or anyone else).
Do-it-yourself grand juries have no basis in law and no authority. Right-wing fringe groups have been whistling in the dark via such groups for at least 35 years. Absolutely no legal significance whatsoever.
You may as well hold a tea party in your treehouse fort. But then again, at least you'd have a treehouse fort. Or even a tea set.
So, is this continued re-post of the same birther nonsense more of your GOP “opposition strategy”? You still contending that the GOP brain trust set these birthers on this course intentionally, as a means of distracting Obama, and still denying that the birthers are an embarrassment even to the GOP?
We Democrats (and any Americans who care about America) are pleased as punch to see you birthers make nationally-televised fools of yourselves. It would be nice if you could leave out the Bible verses. No need to drag Jesus down with you.

Get on the horn and call your GOP Congressmen and Governors and Senators. Don't waste time on Dumocrats. They're too wussy to take concealed assault rifles onto playgrounds, even though it's their God-given right to do so. Stick with GOP'ers.
Call a news station and stage a protest. Make sure there are cameras everywhere. Sing “The Battle Hymn of the Republic” at the beginning and “Nearer, My Lord, To Thee” as things conclude.
Bring your birth certificate. Make sure it's a copy, you don't want to fuck up the original and besides no state will give you the original anyway. Put it in a zip-lock bag, so you don't spill pudding on it. Again.
Light candles and hold up signs that talk about the birth certificates that would have gone to the unborn had they been born and had they been able to prove they weren't filthy useless Mexican immigrants squeezed out an inch over the border to get free #2 pencils in American schools. Well, find a way to fit all that on a sign, I don't want to have to do every little thing for you. I'm an “ideas” person. I don't do policy, like Michael Steele.
The point is, DO NOT LET OBAMA GET AWAY WITH USURPING KING GEORGE'S THRONE. Make sure to hold King George's minions accountable. They're the only ones who care enough about this blessed land to stop doing the nation's pressing business (that they were elected to do) and spend any time whatsoever listening to you persistent patriots.

“Can one honestly surmise that there is not one prosecutor or judge in the entire nation who questions AKA OBAMA’s eligibility to be President?”
Yes, one can.
That is because prosecutors and judges must assess and weigh evidence. Prosecutors do so when deciding whether to bring a case; judges do so when they decide the merits of a case.
No birther has any evidence. No admissible evidence whatsoever. Just conjecture, fervent hope, and a real big wish list of stuff you'd like to read but can't for various reasons.
And, of course, prosecutors get promoted to become Judges and Judges get promoted to become Justices. Know who promotes them? Presidents. Unlikely that you'll see any prosecutor who has a hint of ambition take up this issue, and no way would a judge ever support it if it was done.
But it CANNOT proceed on the basis of a “citizen grand jury” since that has no more legal effect than a promise your Mom relayed to you from the Tooth Fairy to give you a quarter.

That's the somewhat confusing thing about standing: the more people can claim that they were somehow 'harmed' the less likely it is that they have standing. The 'injury' has to be specific rather than general.
And no, the President is not an usurper which is a legal term reserved for someone who obtained office without color of title. The president was duly elected, certified and sworn in and is thus at least a 'de facto president'

Bowditch: You cite many cases most of which are speaking of Citizen not natural born citizen.
Sometimes they talk more generally about citizens, sometimes about citizens born on US soil. As I have explained, for all practical purposes, native born and natural born are the same concept.
Why did the founders make a distiction between the qualification for President vs. Representitive:
Because they did not want a naturalized citizen to be able to run for presidency.
Vattel's “The Law of Nations” was widely read by the founders.
Benjamin Franklin's letter to Charles Dumas(publisher) “I am much obliged by the kind present you have made us of your editions of Vattel. It came to us in good season; when the circumstances of a rising state make it necessary frequently to consult the Law of Nations. Accordingly, that copy which I kept, has been continually in the hands of the members of our Congress, now sitting”.
Yes, Vattel had it's purpose for international law, however for municipal law, Common Law prevailed, as I have explained.
I agree with Donofrio that the meaning of natual born citizen needs to be resolved in the U.S. Supreme Court -not by Congress & not by a State Supreme Court.
The US Supreme Court did suggest that natural born means born on US soil regardless of the status of parents, in US v Wong Kim Ark. As to SCOTUS hearing a case any time soon, I doubt that they will grant certiori, given that they had several opportunities at a much more opportune moment and decided not to. Given that the issue is now beyond their reach, the likelihood of cert granted is even lower.

“When you can't defend your position with bogus facts…”
What bogus facts? Roooth pointed you to the only relevant fact: Obama provided all the information necessary long ago. That is why, when you persist with questions that are irrelevant, misleading, or flat-out falsehoods posed as questions, your transparent motive for doing so is exposed. In other words, you're lying and we know that you're lying, but we also know WHY you're lying.
Skipping a step, we don't call you liars. We call you racists. That's why you're lying, after all.
“Obama has the power to put all this to rest by merely releasing the long form Birth Certificate; why does he choose not to?”
Your question is an absurdity. First of all, he is not above Hawaiian state law. Hawaiian state law, as has been stated here and elsewhere many times, forbids the release of the original records that are now stored electronically. He DID release what is available to him, and he did that a year ago.
Anything else you say is an obvious attempt to ignore that reality. And normal people get annoyed by that. Once they say it AGAIN, they get angry. Because by then it's obvious to anyone that you never gave a shit about a birth certificate anyway. It's about a black guy's “eligibility for the office he is presently usurping” or whatever the talking point du jour is.
You're right about one thing. There is a great crime being perpetrated. It's the Southern Strategy, coming home to roost 45 years after its implementation. The GOP has dumbed down its conversation with its own base and pandered to that base's ugliest prejudices and worst fears.
Palin went around “real America” telling everyone that their opponent pals around with terrorists and is a socialist. But Palin is married to a guy who belonged to a secessionist party for 7 years, and she doubled the amount of CASH handed out to residents in Alaska that she “redistributed” from the oil companies.
I would say talk about the pot calling the kettle black, but Obama is neither a terrorist-pal nor a socialist. Really that's just Palin.
So yeah, the great crime is The Miseducation of “Social Conservatives.” Go find a citizen's grand jury to pursue it. At least get on TV or something.

The Obots can lie, lie, lie and otherwise obfuscate until the cows come home, and it won't change the fact that Hawaii has the documents and they're accessible.
No evidence exists that this is indeed the case, and given Hawaiian law, it seems reasonable that the originals may no longer exist. After all, from 2001 onwards, all birth certificates are handled electronically. As to law enforcement investigators requesting it, for that they need an active investigation and any attempt will immediately be fought in court and thrown out.
It's time to accept the simple facts that no court is going to grant standing here.

Even if an independently convened grand jury is mistakenly seen as merely people assembling to exercise their Constitutional right to “redress their grievances,” or report crimes, that is no small thing. Hundreds of people in such “assemblies” will be examining evidence and presenting the results of their investigation to appropriate county, state, and federal authorities, some of whom will almost certainly form more conventional grand juries to indict AKA OBAMA.
There is so much more to this than most people know.
There are Public Relations strategies and there are legal strategies. Sometimes the overlap and sometimes they don’t.
From the very beginning of this effort, I have seen AGJ efforts as a thin entering wedge to convene conventional Grand Juries.
My conclusion is still optimistic : Obama will be indicted and charged very soon. Keep in mind that the role of a grand jury is to determine if enough evidence exists to refer a case to the courts for trial. Can any objective person review information like that being presented to AGJ members and reject the premise that this case needs to be referred to the courts for prosecution?
It is very likely that the American Grand Jury effort will result in an indictment by a conventionally impaneled Grand Jury.

It's absurd on it's face, of course, that legitimizing a conspiracy theorist's conspiracy theory by providing what he asks for will MAKE IT GO AWAY.
But the real reason is a nod to Florida Christian, who long ago plucked that phrase out of one of the many birther posts in which it appears, and made it his own.
So I have to say I laughed at your post. Even though it was review-session serious. Except for the part where you credit me with an astute observation for noticing that birthers don't have evidence. That had to be a joke! I think Carrie Prejean could figure that one out.

You can say the exact same thing about UFO's, Bigfoot, and Chupacabra. Hundreds of people report their findings, after duly consulting evidence and assembling in groups for the purpose, to government officials about each of those things. “Hundreds of people” is not a statistically-significant number compared to 300 million people.
So please, spend lots of money in the local economies of whoever's house the Big Grand Patriot Jury will be held each week. Go out to dinner beforehand. Get some chips and salsa and maybe even some beer.
At least that way, even though it will be the same thing you usually do on Thursdays, you can feel civically engaged.

The problem is that even if real grand juries where to write presentments, they cannot write indictments without a request from the attorney general, such presentments need not be addressed and signed by the AG. The “American Grand Jury” knitting club presented its presentment to DC Court and the judge tossed it out without much ceremony.

The problem with your “thin entering wedge” idea is that it is literally and figuratively hollow.
Figuratively because you don't back it up, or even pretend to. You say “I have seen them as a wedge.” And the next sentence is “My conclusion…” It's absurd.
But literally, because there is no way to bridge the gap between what the American Grand Jury or whatever does…. and the real world.
Because prosecutors must have evidence, not mere suspicion and conjecture and a big wish list of reading material.
And no birther has any evidence. Even if you get beyond the technical questions of standing that nbc1 and others are explaining so cogently, “there's just NO there there” when it comes to birthers and admissible evidence. None exists.
So no prosecutor would touch it, and if you haven't noticed, most prosecutors are politically-ambitious. Many seek federal judgeships. Those are political appointments. By Presidents. So no one would want to come out against the most exclusive club on Earth, Presidents, if their entire career depends on the unexplained whim of said club members, would they?
And then, we're right back where we started. No evidence. So they lose, even if a prosecutor brought the case.

Is that what you meant to say? Because that'd make more sense.
Unless the AGJ members have access to certain top-secret fancy evidence we commoners aren't privy to, then they don't have anything that would sway an objective person.
Objective people don't think there's any grand conspiracy here. They look up the birth certificate online and then go back to watching CSI. Or looking at Facebook to see if their ex is dating anyone ugly.
You really need to keep doing this, but take it visual. Get on the news. It doesn't matter if you say you're against all political parties.

“There are Public Relations strategies and there are legal strategies.”
Sorry, I just noticed this. Are you arguing here that the citizen's grand jury, whether it is called American Grand Jury or any other name, is a “public relations strategy” to advance your goal of getting Obama indicted?
Wouldn't that be a disastrous P.R. strategy? Because you're using a discredited messenger to spread your message. Most people have never heard of the citizen's grand jury. Those who have heard of it, ignore or mock it.
Once the uninformed find out it has no basis in law and no power to do anything, even less power than a neighborhood watch association, they will find other things to pay attention to.
You can imagine the mockery Jon Stewart et al would come up with, but it doesn't take a comedian to point out what's funny about people convening on their own and then running to a prosecutor with their deliberative findings. It's a comedy waiting to be on the big screen.
You told me before that the birthers were a deliberate strategy by the GOP powers-that-be, as part of their grand takeover plan. You just make it up as you go along.

I am not posting this as a response to your rant but as an opportunity to educate others. Don't bother to read it. I will only cause more work for you and more traffic and volunteers for me.
I have a job, a family, and a real life. I don’t have time to teach you “Citizen Grand Jury – Introduction”. But I will be kind enough to give you a clue:
We have it on good authority, the Supreme Court, that your ignorance has no legal effect.
Justice Powell, in United States v. Calandra, 414 U.S. 338, 343 (1974), stated:
“The institution of the grand jury is deeply rooted in Anglo-American history. [n3] In England, the grand jury [p343] served for centuries both as a body of accusers sworn to discover and present for trial persons suspected of criminal wrongdoing and as a protector of citizens against arbitrary and oppressive governmental action. In this country, the Founders thought the grand jury so essential to basic liberties that they provided in the Fifth Amendment that federal prosecution for serious crimes can only be instituted by “a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury.” Cf. Costello v. United States, 350 U.S. 359, 361-362 (1956). The grand jury’s historic functions survive to this day. Its responsibilities continue to include both the determination whether there is probable cause to believe a crime has been committed and the protection of citizens against unfounded criminal prosecutions. Branzburg v. Hayes, 408 U.S. 665, 686-687 (1972).”
The Note 4 lie is smashed on the SCOTUS altar, “The grand jury’s historic functions survive to this day.” Take that Note 4!
Antonin Scalia effectively codified the unique independent power of the Fourth Branch into the hands of all citizens sitting as federal grand jurors. In discussing that power and unique independence granted to the grand jury, the United States Supreme Court, in United States v. Williams, 504 U.S. 36 at 48 (1992), Justice Scalia, delivering the opinion of the court, laid down the law of the land:
“‘[R]ooted in long centuries of Anglo-American history,” Hannah v. Larche, 363 U.S. 420, 490 (1960) (Frankfurter, J., concurring in result), the grand jury is mentioned in the Bill of Rights, but not in the body of the Constitution. It has not been textually assigned, therefore, to any of the branches described in the first three Articles. It “`is a constitutional fixture in its own right.’”
United States v. Chanen, 549 F.2d 1306, 1312 (CA9 1977) (quoting Nixon v. Sirica, 159 U.S. App. D.C. 58, 70, n. 54, 487 F.2d 700, 712, n. 54 (1973)), cert. denied, 434 U.S. 825 (1977). ‘ “

Comment posted July 27, 2009 @ 2:28 am
In this country through the 5th Amendment, the Grand Jury merely protects defendants from prosecution by the Government. In other words, the Grand Jury is not a right on itself but should be understood as a right of the accused.
In this context Judge Scalia's comments become more clear
It is axiomatic that the grand jury sits not to determine guilt or innocence, but to assess whether there is adequate basis for bringing a criminal charge. See United States v. Calandra, 414 U. S., at 343. That has always been so; and to make the assessment it has always been thought sufficient to hear only the prosecutor's side. As Blackstone described the prevailing practice in 18th-century England, the grand jury was “only to hear evidence on behalf of the prosecution[,] for the finding of an indictment is only in the nature of an enquiry or accusation, which is afterwards to be tried and determined.” 4 W. Blackstone, Commentaries 300 (1769); see also 2 M. Hale, Pleas of the Crown 157 (1st Am. ed. 1847). So also in the United States. According to the description of an early American court, three years before the Fifth Amendment was ratified, it is the grand jury's function not “to enquire … upon what foundation [the charge may be] denied,” or otherwise to try the suspect's defenses, but only to examine “upon what foundation [the charge] is made” by the prosecutor. Respublica v. Shaffer, 1 Dall. 236 (0. T. Phila. 1788); see also F. Wharton, Criminal Pleading and Practice § 360, pp. 248-249 (8th ed. 1880). As a consequence, neither in this country nor in England has the suspect under investigation by the grand jury ever been thought to have a right to testify or to have exculpatory evidence presented. See 2 Hale, supra, at 157; United States ex rel. McCann v. Thompson, 144 F.2d 604, 605-606 (CA2), cert. denied, 323 U. S. 790 (1944).
It may be helpful to actually understand the context as nothing Scalia said is in approval of the 'American Grand Jury' knitting clubs.

It certainly looks like it. In fact, the DC court clearly rejected the 'American Grand Jury'. I have yet to see a well reasoned argument from the so called 'AMG' as to why President Obama should be indicted, and even less why the legal system would care about what the 'AMG' comes up with.
It so clearly violates the established rules for the Grand Jury that only in name does it share similarities.

Nobody in their right mind wanted a case in DC. Obviously this was not a a legal strategy.
However, it worked very well as a PR strategy and had the bonus of having a Federal Judge get rid of the rediculous idea that there was something wrong with making the presentments in the first place.
Obots had been making the claim that AGJ members were in danger of being arrested for even making their presentments. The Judge made it clear that it was perfectly legal for the presentment to be made and then he rejected it.
No one expected him to accept it. Had he accepted it we would all have been confused as to what to do next.

Two important pieces of evidence are wrong on the Grand Jury and birther sites.
1. Orly has the wrong citation on Hawaiian law that could account for Obama being registered as being born in Hawaii. I have it correct in my article:

Laws of the Territory of Hawaii ACT 96 To Provide For The Issuance Of Certificates Of Hawaiian Birth was in effect from 1911 until 1972 and allowed someone who was born outside the Hawaiian Islands to be registered as though he were born in Hawaii. Under that law, someone simply would have presented herself to the Hawaiian authorities and declared that the child was born in Hawaii. The person could have sworn under oath and presented witnesses and other evidence. If the authorities accepted it, that was the end of it.. The only way to know where AKA OBAMA was actually born is to view AKA OBAMA's original birth certificate from 1961 to see what kind of birth certificate it is, and to examine what corroborating evidence supports what it says about AKA OBAMA's alleged place of birth. If the birth was in a hospital, as AKA OBAMA has maintained, such evidence would be the name of the hospital and the name and signature of the doctor who delivered him.
Orly cites: BESIDE'S STATUTE 338-17.8 and other's. see ?338-20.5 Adoption; foreign born persons. (a) The department of health shall establish a Hawaii certificate of birth for a person born in a foreign country and for whom a final decree of adoption has been entered in a court of competent jurisdiction in Hawaii, when it receives the following:
Please note that Obama was born in 1961 and Section 338-17.8 only went into effect in 1982. It is always good to know more than the attorney and catch them making a mistake. Makes it look like we know what we are doing.
Phil Berg also has a mistake. Because it was completely wrong I didn’t even mention it in my article. Phil says: Pakistan was so dangerous that it was on the State Department's travel ban list for U.S. Citizens. Non-Muslim visitors were not welcome unless sponsored by their embassy for official business. A Muslim citizen of Indonesia traveling on an Indonesian passport would have success entering Indonesia, Pakistan and India. Therefore, it is believed Obama traveled on his Indonesian passport entering the Countries.
Phil is completely wrong about this and we need to provide accurate information to our members.. We can’t help but look good if we catch lawyer mistakes and correct them.
The truth is that it was neither impossible nor difficult for Americans to visit Pakistan in 1981 according to a contemporary New York Times article and a followup article written by an American Travel Writer, Barbara Crossette, who visited there:
… It is possible to cross from India to Pakistan by train from Amritsar and Delhi, but border procedures can be long and complicated. A road crossing at Wagah is also open for a few daylight hours. Check schedules, and allow several extra hours for border formalities.
Tourists can obtain a free, 30-day visa (necessary for Americans) at border crossings and airports. Transportation within Lahore is plentiful, with taxis, scooter rickshaws and horse-drawn tongas (especially in the old city) readily available.

Nobody in their right mind wanted a case in DC. Obviously this was not a a legal strategy.
Sure…. And yet… By filing in the DC Courts you set a legal precedent. As a PR strategy it backfired although I can understand why from a PR aspect you have to defend it as successful.
He threw out the whole concept of the “AMG”
Let's see what the judge really said
… grand juries are convened by the court for the district in which they sit. See FED. R. CRIM. P. 6( a)( 1). Grand jurors are also to be selected at random from a fair cross section of the district in which they are convened. 18 U.S.C. § 1861. The individuals who have made this presentment were not convened by this Court to sit as a grand jury nor have they been selected at random from a fair cross section of this district.
So the problems are numerous
1. Not convened by the Court
2. Failure to follow the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedures
As to Presentments
And although presentments are constitutionally permitted, there is no authority under the Rules of Criminal Procedures in the statutes of the United States for this Court to accept one.
Constitutionally permitted (not required) but no rules for the courts to accept them.
Any self-styled indictment or presentment issued by such a group has no force under the Constitution or laws of the United States.
Yes, surely a PR success…

Certificates of Hawaiian birth would show a filing date of at least one year after birth. Since the COLB shows 4 days after birth, this as HRS reference are without relevance.
Time after time these 'conspiracies' fall apart on closer scrutiny. And in fact, you have to show that Act96 was still in effect in 1961. So far I have not seen any evidence of such.
Comment posted July 27, 2009 @ 3:41 am
That is why we are, and have been, aiming our legal stategy at the local level. The federal rules prevent a citizen grand jury. The federal rules are unconstitutional but we surely didn't want that fight. That wasn't a precedent it already existed.
If you were a judge would you take seriously an indictment presented by a Grand Jury that was convened by openly recruiting people for the Grand Jury who wanted to indict the suspect?
Did you think we didn't knwo that?
Comment posted July 27, 2009 @ 3:54 am
Yes, that appears to be the case. However, now that federal rules fail, state courts are totally unable to address these issues. In other words, the PR stunt backfired and now you are left to fight the fight in inappropriate courts.
As to the Federal Rules being unconstitutional, since the grand juries are a common law concept, and not specified by the Constitution other than as a protection for defendants from government prosecution, laws can be used to define what grand juries can and cannot do. As long as a grand jury is used before indicting people for certain federal crimes.
If I had some time I could dig through my archives about the expectations of this stunt.
However, at the local level, the “AMG” has even less relevance.

I'd go with that. Back in '93, when the Woman With One Eyebrow was holding her star chamber proceedings on “health care reform,” she and her flunkies set it up so that not ONE physician or any other kind of health care practitioner was allowed inside to breach the secrecy of the socialists' deliberations.
Something about doctors having an insuperable “conflict of interest” problem.
So what about the “conflict of interest” problem that lawyers have – who make their livings by practicing the law – with legislating (creating the law) and adjudicating (judging the merits of cases under the law)?
The way I figure it, if an average reasonably educated non-lawyer can't sit on the judicial bench and assess the validity of a case brought before that bench, then how the hell are the millions upon millions of us other non-lawyers supposed to live under these same laws?

Nothing said in this forum will prove Obama's eligibility to be POTUS.
However, if it turns out he is not eligible then there will be much damage done to our country.
It would be better to find out sooner than later, especially since he is giving orders (as CinC) to our military commanders that effect the lives of not only our enemies but our own servicemen as well. If his orders are illegal our servicemen may be subject to war crimes trials prosecution which makes this an extremely serious matter regardless what side of the argument one might support.
As certain as death and taxes are this issue will not go away until there is no doubt of Obama's eligibility.

What we have – ostensibly, for those computer generated graphic images are neither a birth certificate nor a “Certification of Live Birth” in print-on-paper actuality – is a short-form element that the state of Hawaii provides its residents as a convenience. Though there is much noise about how today such a COLB is all that anyone can get of the government of the state of Hawaii in lieu of a real birth certificate, there are thousands of people living in Hawaii (or who had once lived in Hawaii) who can show such a COLB regardless of where they had been born.
If – just as a hypothetical – Barry Soetoro's mother or grandmother had presented the government of the state of Hawaii with a valid Kenyan birth certificate for little Barry, together with documentation obtained from the U.S. embassy in Mombasa supporting that birth certificate's validity, Mr. Soetoro might be expected to have secured in 2007 such a COLB from the state of Hawaii.
Not that what you'd read on that issued-by-the-state-government, print-on-paper, duly signed and sealed COLB would necessarily read as do those two Macintosh Photoshop-fabricated computer graphic images circulated to DailyKos and to Barry's fellow Annenberg Foundation employees at FactCheck in June 2008.
In short, jay, it's Barry Soetoro who's “faux” and this “controversy” is going to keep chapping your ass until eventually your Mombasa Messiah is hauled away by the federal marshals with a squad of Secret Service agents dithering and glancing back and forth at each other like confused wombats.

Why? And why should Obama be held to different standards than his predecessors. Once he was duly elected and sworn in, the issue is moot.
Since people will always have doubts, no matter the evidence, why go down the path to appease the few?
Comment posted July 27, 2009 @ 4:14 am
Well, what would prove Barry Soetoro's qualification to be grunting out his excrement into the Presidential toilet?
The Obamaphiles claim that the images of his alleged COLB – which is all we have of such a document – are proof enough. Sane, rational, honest people (which leaves out the Obamaphiles, of course) want the document itself, and they want it evaluated by competent forensic documents examiners capable of attesting to its “genuineness or non-genuineness.”
That and, of course, the unsealing of his academic records, the listing of the clients he served as a practicing attorney, and all the rest of that litany of suspiciously hidden information so very likely to demonstrate that Barry Soetoro is a rank, rotten, America-hating sonofabitch whom you wouldn't expect to leave alone for five minutes in your living room without coming back to find your dog raped and bleeding in the middle of the floor.

It is in fact a certification of live birth and the official Hawaiian Birth Certificate. The short form is all that remains.
Since the birth was registered 4 days after the event, these scenarios remain well, implausible.
Hypotheticals have no relevance, especially when totally lacking in any evidence.
there are thousands of people living in Hawaii (or who had once lived in Hawaii) who can show such a COLB regardless of where they had been born.
There is no evidence of such, in fact Hawaiian law is clear that if they are not born in Hawaii, their birth certificate will state so.
That's the problem with your hypotheticals. They have no relevance.

I am aware of the various conspiracies and wishful arguments that he is not a natural born citizen but such questions are best resolved at the next election where the people get to speak.
Right now, Congress is the only way to Constitutionally remove our President.

[...] McCain Campaign Investigated, Dismissed Obama Citizenship Rumors | The Washington Independent In the final months of the 2008 presidential race, Sen. John McCain’s (R-Ariz.) campaign learned of a lawsuit filed in Pennsylvania that asked the state to strip Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) of the Democratic nomination on suspicion that he was not an American citizen. The complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief was filed by Phil Berg, a former deputy state attorney general who left government in 1990 for a series of gadfly political campaigns. His last round of notoriety had come when he filed RICO complaints against George W. Bush, Saddam Hussein and multiple members of the Bush administration for “accountability” for the 9/11 attacks. Still, Berg’s complaint had gotten glancing local media attention, and the Democratic National Committee’s counsel had filed a motion to dismiss it.

The Obamaphiles keep perseverating on how wonderfully “exceptional” is their Mombasa Messiah, what a breath of fresh air he is, how nice it is that America as a nation has finally “gotten beyond racism” and yadda-yadda-yadda.
And yet the same exceptionality that marks this Kenyan/Hawaiian/Indonesian/Chicago machine politician and “poverty pimp” (“community organizer”) so intimately linked with profoundly anti-American, Islamist, and explicitly socialist associates throughout his life is not sufficient reason to request of him proof of what is here so very much in doubt – his “natural born” citizenship qualification?
That nobody asked Connecticut-born faux Texan Dubbya about his birth certificate is that nobody thought we could throw the bastich out on his ass by so doing.
If we coulda, we surely woulda.

Thus far – meaning with the exception of Barry Soetoro – all candidates for the presidency and occupants of the Oval office HAVE met the same standards.
Because his qualifications have been very reasonably called into question, your Mombasa Messiah is merely being asked to provide such proof as the average American citizen might be required to provide his state DMV when requesting a driver's license.
No big deal at all, is it?
Unless, of course, Barry Soetoro is refusing to do it because he CAN'T provide such proof, he knows it, and his intent is upon criminal violation of the U.S. Constitution.
'Round and 'round we go, and the Obamaphile maundering is always the same. “Why should Barry have to prove anything? You're a racist! Boo-hoo, boo-hoo, boo-hoo, you brute! I'm gonna report you to the Civil Rights Commission!”

Unfortunately, there seems to be a concerted effort to either shred or otherwise seal Obama's records. If I understand it correctly, Hawaii has shredded all paper documents attesting to births and claims that the only BC in their possession (of BHO) is on their computers.
How convenient.
There also has to be much $$$ changing hands to keep those records from seeing the light of day.
Major Cook's lawsuit (although now moot) may open up a can of worms that Obama's team won't be able to ignore: It appears that any servicemen can now ask to be let out of harm's way by stating they cannot follow orders given to their commanders until Obama's eligibility status is cleard up.

Seems that the “birther” questions are simmering to an extent that even Barry's bought dogs in the mainstream media feel that they have to get involved in the “damage control” effort to denigrate the constitutionalists who threaten their Messiah's rule.

He wasn't duly elected if it is found that he is an illegal alien or not a natural born citizen. The issue is certainly not moot if more evidence keeps piling up in favor of a 'real' investigation being initiated. The very fact of Obama wanting to keep all of his records a secret or inaccessible to the general public is evidence in and of itself that he may be trying to hide something devastating to his presidency.
Google 'orly taitz' and you will find a slew of evidence piling up against Obama.
It isn't a matter of trying to appease the few – it's a Constitutional issue that must be resolved – the sooner the better… If he is not a natural born citizen he is not a legitimate POTUS. If he is actually an illegal alien he must be arrested and put in jail (not impeached). Impeachment is only for legitimate presidents who abuse the office to which they were elected.

This is a red herring. No one besides the civilian contractor plucked out of obscurity by Orly Taitz (and exposed to national ridicule as well as termination by his employer), the disgraced Maj. Cook, has advanced anything like this silly argument about President Obama's eligibility, and it is unlikely that anyone else ever will.
But if you were at all concerned about it, you should have been hijacking a news station somewhere back in 2002-2003. What gives?

So do keep this nonsense up, since the more you show your rear ends (ala Baboons although I hate to insult Baboons) the more you ensure a constant democratic majority.
Oh and keep deluding yourselves about how it's on the tipping point and more and more people are “coming on board to bring this usuper” down.

But then again, I love making fun of them. They are so delusional and reading their “facts” is like reading delusional comedy. I just love how they pull “facts” out of the thinnest of air.
AND no matter how much they are shown their “facts” to be debunked they just put their fingers in their ears and go, “I CAN'T HEAR YOU BLADA BLADA BLADA” etc.

“There also has to be much $$$ changing hands to keep those records from seeing the light of day.”
Unless, of course, there's not. Because you just made that up. You don't even claim that there “is” money changing hands. You just throw up YOUR hands and say “gosh, has to be a conspiracy, can't be nothin' else.”
The other possibility, which you discard out of hand, is that there ISN'T some huge decades old, 100 person conspiracy whose sole purpose was to confer natural born citizenship status to a black child.
The other other possibility, which is kinda like the other possibility, is that Hawaiian state law regulates birth certificates and what can be shown to whom. Tenth Amendment and all.
But you stick with your theory. I'd like to sell you a rock I got from Lisa Simpson. It keeps tigers away.

So you answered your own question. Thanks for saving us the trouble.
Regardless, the point is that Obama provided his birth certificate to the public a year ago. No other Presidential candidate has ever done so.
That birth certificate was authenticated by Hawaiian state officials, just to resolve the birther issue; they did not need to authenticate it before because no one was dumb or desperate enough to question any of Obama's government-issued records before.
There is therefore no argument space whatsoever for you to write anything about sealed records.
You don't get to see records that state law keeps sealed, so there goes the electronic original data from the original long form birth certificate.
You don't get to see his school records as those have zip to do with his Presidential eligibility.
You don't get to see any other records, for the same reason.
But you do get to keep bitching about it here. Glad to have you around. Hope you enjoy yourself. Get it all off your chest.

Not likely. Read the articles at this website. Dobbs's boss told Dobbs's staffers that the birther issue is dead.
Other cable network coverage, on CNN and elsewhere, has thoroughly discredited the birther claims. Even Ann Coulter says they're crazies.
Not quite the mark of a movement picking up steam. I hope it can keep going at least through the end of the summer rerun season though.

“I doubt there is a precise way of knowing, but I believe the estimates of substantial costs (in excess of a million). The law forms used bill at high rates, and guesstimates of the hours they worked are probably fairly accurate.“

Not only do I know about billable hours, I know about speculation. And speculation within speculation. Just like hearsay within hearsay.
You quoted a guy who apparently received an email, you didn't say it was from you, and this guy guessed, after hemming and hawwing about guessing, that an estimate would be over $1MM. He references “law forms” and “guesstimates” of the hours “they” worked.
Wow. I waited DAYS for you to provide proof. What did you give me? Mr. and Mrs. Fucking Nordyke and This Guy At His Desk Pulling Figures Out of the Air.
What's a “law form?”
And yes, there's a precise way of knowing. It's called a bill.
I've worked in two law firms, one huge and one small. Never heard of billing $800,000 or $1,000,000 without records. So where are the records?
Without records, what's he basing his estimates on? My mistake, his “guesstimates.” What “law firms used?” In any case that has been filed, the attorneys of record are just that, of record, so you can look up the case and see who represents who. So who are the attorneys? How many of them are there? What did they do?
Never mind the last part. If you don't know how many attorneys are working on a file it's pointless to ask what was done on a file.
So, it turns out your proof is just poorly-excused speculation. He even admits it, because he's embarrassed to have his name next to what he knows is going to be ridiculed over and over in the media.
You're disappointing. I had such high hopes for your proof. At least some snatches of German or something.

Best estimate I could get, stevie. You're a lawyer, right? Why don't you estimate the number of billable hours expended on quashing these 40+ lawsuits all over these United States, match 'em against usual-and-customary lawyerly fee schedules, and calculate your own educated guess as to how much Barry has shoved down the proverbial rat-hole trying to weasel out of showing his print-on-paper birth certificate to any sort of public official or qualified examiner whatsoever?
See http://www.theobamafile.com/ObamaLawsuits.htm#P… for information on how $688,316.42 of those lawyers' fees were on record as having been paid out.
I think Mr. Lifson's estimate of what your Messiah has blown on this puzzling defense of the secrecy of his birth certificate is probably downplaying the real amount.

Don't have to. Basic algebra.
A minus A = Zero.
Attorneys' fees are awarded to the prevailing party when the frivolous suit is thrown out. In one such case, reported in the pages of this site, $1,067 had to be paid to Obama's attorneys by the frivolous filer.
So, no money gets expended. It all gets paid back by the frivolous filer.
Even if that were not the case, the above figure tells you what you need to know. It's $45,000 at most, and quite likely less than that, since once you do the legal research and draft the pleading one time, you can duplicate and revise it over and over as necessary, changing the names of the frivolous-filing plaintiffs and not much else.
Never mind all that. Did you just admit that that worthless alleged email from that alleged American “thinker” was the “best you could do?” Jesus. You should've said your brain hurts or something. Make up an excuse. That's embarassing.

With regard to throttling government, see Articles I through X of the Amendments. More can be found in Article I, Section 9, in Article II, Section 4, etc.
Despite Hamilton's megalomaniac best efforts, the list of “Thou shalt nots” in that charter put the proverbial lock-jaw pliers upon the figurative cojones of the federal government and clamp down. Is it the anti-federalists' fault that (as they predicted) lawyerly tricks have been used to evade these protections?
Tell us, stevie, why is it that you seem to want intrusive, activist, “in-your-grill” bureaucracy and politicians run amok instead of lawful, limited, peaceable, non-tyrannical government?
When it's the statist attacking rule of law – because rule of law limits the predatory activities of “the Malevolent Jobholder”:to preserve the rights of the private citizenry – I find it altogether wonderful to read that I'm working in some kind of “disregard [for] the rule of law.”

COLB, is NOT all there is. Another OBOT DRONE BIG LIE bites the dust in desperate attempt to rationalize away the the use of high paid lawyers to block any and all access to the the Thug In Chief's criminal behavior.
Nothing could be further from the truth. You can take it to the bank, Hawaii maintains an archive of Certificate of Birth documents.
Steve Cee decided to confirm if Klein's statement were factual and sent a series of emails to the State of Hawaii — here are their replies, that contains facts that lay lie to Klein's assertions.
Hawaii's initial response to Steve's request for a copy of a long-form birth certificate was the standard crap we've been hearing for several months now, that “We issue only a computer-generated copy of the certificate, with limited information.”
Unsatisfied, the tenacious Steve decided to to inquire further and dig deeper. Identifying himself as a genealogist, Steve specifically asked, “What does a person do in order satisfy (sic) a Long form or Vault requirement? Prompting the State of Hawaii’s second, and more detailed, reply, that provides the process necessary to obtain a copy of a vault-copy Certificate of Birth.
“The only records that can be photo-copied are those with diacritical marks which cannot be printed by computer. Otherwise, it would require an order signed by a judge specifying what record was needed…”
In every single statement coming out of Hawaii, the words are carefully chosen and structured, but this one clearly says, if you got a judge, we got the document. Eligibility
7/26/09 Hawaii Dances Around The Truth
Janice Okubo's comment to John Klein, “In 2001 — the state of Hawaii Health Department went paperless,” is being used by the Obot community AND Hawaii to imply that Hawaii no longer has vault-copy Certificates of Birth. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Documents may be batch scanned into a microfiche system, but the data in a computer database, converted from Hawaii's Certificate of Live Birth must be hand entered — keystroke, by keystroke. The document can't be scanned because there is typed, stamped and hand-written entries on that document, and those entries are placed randomly within the document's fields.
According to the 2000 Census, there were 1,211,537 residents in Hawaii — 999,308 were born there — that's one million birth certificates that had to be handed encoded as part of Hawaii's transition to a “paperless” system.
There's approximately 50 entries that need to be transcribed from each document (names have several parts), so that's 50,000,000 transcriptions. Some of the data, such as “date of birth,” needs to be converted into standard formats. If a data entry clerk were to transcribe one certificate every 15 minutes, the level of effort would be approximately 250,000 worker-hours. That's 125 data entry operators for a year — if they have no meetings, and take no coffee, lunch, or comfort breaks. So you're really looking at 200 key-entry operators for a year — plus a management team to oversee the project.
That's a BIG project, with a BIG budget. It should be relatively easy to verify such a project occurred because this project would be done by outside contractors. The project lifecycle includes request for proposal, proposal, contractor selection, organization, planning, training, execution, validation, etc. This is a 3 to 5-year project — remember, we're talking state government here.
Now, when 50,000,000 transcriptions are made, errors will be made.
When documents, such as birth certificates, are converted to electronic media, the originals MUST be archived because of those errors. There must be backup, because these documents are used as a basis of all other documents and are often required for legal processes.
The prudent person would be required to preserve the source document as backup for challenges to the database content. Government bureaucrats tend to be the most prudent people on the planet. Their primary work function is to cover their ass.
There is no way, in hell, that the directors and managers of Hawaii's health department destroyed those original documents. Their exposure would be enormous.
So Klein's statement, “that paper documents were discarded in 2001 when the department went paperless,” is a damnable lie. He's saying the paper documents don't exist, and Hawaiian civil servants are implying the same thing — unless the issue is pressed — then they admit they still have them, reluctantly.
Remember, the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands required Certificates of Birth, for services and benefits as recently as June 8, 2009. They can't destroy documents that are a requirement for government services and benefits.
But the clincher is Fukino's statement, that she personally saw and verified Obama's original birth certificate on October 31, 2008.
Hawaii has the documents. They're down there somewhere in a clean, air-conditioned building — and they're accessible.
The Obots can lie, lie, lie and otherwise obfuscate until the cows come home, and it won't change that fact.

Calm. The hell. Down.
First, neither you nor anybody else – not even the most ardent, ass-kissing Obamaphile infesting this forum – has ever seen hide nor hair of Barry Soetoro's “birth certificate.” Nobody except the bureaucrats of the state government of Hawaii have, and they're very carefully not saying what the hell that birth certificate reveals about our Fraudulence-in-Chief except that (a) he was born, and (b) like his younger maternal half-sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng, there's enough information on file for the state of Hawaii to issue him a Certification of Live Birth if he were to ask for one.
Not that he had been born in Honolulu as he had sworn when he signed multiple documents certifying that he is a “natural born citizen” of these United States during the National Socialist Party's presidential primaries, but that the state of Hawaii had some sort of birth certificate on file for him.
That his alleged biological father had been a foreigner is neither here nor there, save as it serves to explain his birth in Mombasa. For all anyone knows, Barry's last name might well be “Davis” or “Little.” Stanley Ann Duham slept around a lot. He does not have to be biologically “100% American” except that the patch of the planet where he first drew breath has to have been in these United States for him to qualify as a “natural born” instead of a naturalized citizen.
Barry's claimed Kenyan daddy – a British subject at the time of Barry's birth – would no more detract from that third-generation red diaper baby's grown-up citizenship status – whether born in Mombasa as he had been or in Honolulu as he would like the nation to think – today. Barry is a U.S. citizen.
Just not a “natural born” U.S. citizen, and therefore not qualified to sit as President of these United States.
That is quant. suff. for this recipe.

United States Constitution. See Hollister v. Soetoro, 601 F.Supp.2d. (D. D.C. 2009);
Berg v. Obama, 574 F.Supp.2d 509 (E.D. Pa. 2008); Dawson v. Obama, 2009 WL
532617 (E.D. Calif. 2009); Cook v. Good, 2009 WL 2163535 (M.D. Ga. 2009); Cohen v.
Obama, 2008 WL 5191864 (D. D.C. 2008). As in Hollister, “[t]he right thing to do is to
bring [this case] to an early end.” 601 F.Supp.2d at 180.
Plaintiff’s first attempt to involve a federal district court in this ongoing conspiracy
theory that President Obama is unqualified to be President of the United States of America
because he is not a native-born citizen was rebuffed just eleven days ago by United States
District Judge Clay D. Land of the Middle District of Georgia based on lack of standing.
As Judge Land observed, because Plaintiff’s orders have been revoked, he cannot satisfy the legal elements of standing to pursue a claim in federal court under Article III of the
Constitution. 2009 WL 2163535 *1; see also Cohen, 2008 WL 5191864 *1 (citing Berg,
574 F. Supp2d 509). The same result is appropriate in Plaintiff’s second attempt in this
case to thrust a federal district court into this controversial maelstrom. Having come to
that jurisdictional conclusion, the Court is precluded from reaching the merits of Plaintiff’s
claims. Dimaio, 520 F.3d at 1303.1
And a footnote which is hilarious
The Court would observe, however, that Plaintiff’s complaint is the
quintessential “shotgun” pleading that has been condemned on numerous occasions by
the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals. See Davis v. Coca-Cola Bottling Co.
Consolidated, 516 F.3d 955, 979 n.54 (11th Cir. 2008) (collecting cases); Strategic Income
Fund, L.L.C. v. Spear, Leeds & Fillogg Corp, 305 F.3d 1293, 1295 (11th Cir. 2002).

If Omama wants to unite this country let him release all of his records. It's that simple.
All of the pontification on this blog will not prove his citizenship status one way or the other.
However:
As Americans we should demand to see those records for the sake of unity and also put to rest any doubt.
If Obama has America's best interests at heart he should release all of his records: If the commenters on this blog have America's best interest at heart we should all (with one voice) demand that Obama release all of his records.
There must be huge amounts of doubt as to Obama's citizenship status therefore this issue is not about the moon being made of green cheese. If the question was that open and closed there would be no argument at all.
To cast aspersions upon those on either side of the issue will not accomplish anything.
Just as Nixon was a crook long before the American public knew about it, it may be a long time before the American public knows the truth about Obama.
Do we (bloggers) want to know the truth SOONER or LATER?

“when there is so much evidence* that Obama is not a natural born citizen?
*The fact that Obama is hiding all of his records (birth, university, passport, military,
et al), is certainly evidence of withholding proof of just who and what he is.”
Come on. Even Donald Rumsfeld knows that’s not true. He’s the most recent one who said “absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.”
And he was right. Absence of evidence isn’t evidence of anything.
It can be, and usually is, a strong indicator that there’s no merit to the charge, but the fact that you have found nothing is not evidence that there must be something to find.

That someone who is born to two alien parents on US soil is a natural born citizen and even if the parents return to their home country where the child acquires a double allegiance, he can, upon reaching the age of majority, return to the United States and continue his natural born birth right which would allow him to run for president.

Wrong again. Sorry my friend. Natural Born merely means native born
For example:
Afterwards however in Convention the words natural born citizen were stricken out and the word native was substituted as the original words might have left an uncertainty as to the meaning of the Convention for natural born citizen might have had some reference to the manner of birth while the word native would refer more particularly to the place of birth

A lot since Quo Warranto is a Common Law concept and thus subject to legislative interpretation. The courts will give notice to such discussions as it helps them understand who according to the legislative branch can use Quo Warranto and in what context.
The 20th amendment does not talk about removing Presidents, just what to do when presidents fail to qualify before Congress certifies and what happens in case of death and other vacancies.
The mere fact that Congress considered to grant the courts the power over quo warranto proceedings involving the title of the presidency and that it failed is important.

This is when the Senate investigated John McCain, with a naval officer father and an American mother, but did not investigate Obama, with a father having a Kenyan birth and British citizenship.

Why should he have to prove anything over and above what anybody else who has ever held the office has had to prove? He has a birth certificate and a birth announcement in an American paper – that's enough for us reasonable people. Has any other candidate or POTUS even had to even deal with this issue? No, and Obama's done more than he even needed to humoring you people, since the allegations are just spurious and politically motivated to begin with. The burden of proof is on the accuser – he doesn't have anything to prove to you.
What I'd like to know is, where were you people when we got stuck with a “president” who outright stole 2 elections in a row – one with the help of his brother the governor of Florida and the Supreme Court, and the second one with the help of the Chief Elections Official of Ohio who also happened to be the co-chair of the “Committee to re-elect George W. Bush” who said he was “committed to helping Ohio deliver its electoral votes to the president next year.” I've got a pretty good idea where you were – you were right in his pocket, not questioning a thing.

Are you for real?
The link you sent is merely a list of Obama For America’s expenditures, alpha by payee, and it identifes itself as “April Quarterly.” That means this list is incredibly broad (everything they spent money on, from pencils to cheeseburgers to legal fees to buttons to public relations) and covers an indefinite time period.
You don’t know what time period is covered by “April Quarterly.” That could mean it covers payments for a three-month period. But which one? And which year? Jan – Mar 2009? April – Jun 2009? Jan – Mar 2008? Doesn’t say.
And then you get to the real problem, which is that while there is indeed a $688,000 listing for a large law firm named Perkins Coie, there is absolutely no indication that any of that money is being paid for any defense of any birther issue.
Perkins Coie handles a variety of legal work for Obama and his campaign. You probably get sticker shock at the dollar figure but that’s not really an eye-popper. You need to compare what the Clinton and McCain campaign legal fees were.
Moreover, you don’t know whether that $688,000 payment is a fair read of what their monthly bills were, or if it is a one-time payment that covers a year’s work. It is common to defer all non-essential payments as long as possible so you can use all your funds to keep the camaign going. See, e.g., Clinton, Hillary.
So before you could even begin to use this $688,000 figure that you plucked out of a one-line unexplained entry in a quarterly report of ALL expenses, in the words of Jeff Sessions, “you got some ‘splainin’ to do.”

There is no evidence for the former and as to the latter, the intent was to prevent indeed foreigners from being naturalized and run for president. Only those born on US soil could do so.
The suggestion that the article was based on Vattel runs counter to the Supreme Court cases which refer to Blackstone and Common Law, not Vattel.

You are wrong, per 12th and 20th amendment Congress qualified the President.
Mr FRELINGHUYSEN It seems to me Mr President that there is one idea which the Senator from Ohio has entirely omitted which is conclusive upon this subject it certainly is to my mind I think the twelfth article of the amendments to the Constitution settles who has jurisdiction over this question. It does not do so in express terms but it does do so by necessary implication. It says that the President of the Senate is to open the certificates aud the votes which are then to be eouuted in the presence of the two houses. That by necessary implication to my mind gives the jurisdiction over this subject to the two houses and if the Constitution does give it to them we cannot by law give it to the judiciary of the country
I am not sure why you, contrary to Constitutional principles, you are proposing to have the President arrested.
By what law do you think this can be achieved? Remember the Constitution is explicit about who and how.

Section 1 of Article Two of the United States Constitution contains the clause:
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States. ”
Additionally, the Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution states that: “[N]o person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.” The grandfather provision of the Natural Born Citizen Clause thus covered the only exceptions to the natural born requirement for the first several presidents and vice-presidents, who were citizens at the time of the adoption of the Constitution, but had been born as British subjects before the American Revolution.

I am familiar with the Constitution. Notice how the Constitution does not define the term “natural born”? Because of this the courts referred to Common Law of those days which shows how natural born was a term used to describe a child born on US soil, regardless of the status of his parents.
As I have explained, the 12th clearly places the decision as to eligibility and qualification in the hands of Congress. If only someone had objected during the joint session, there could have been a question raised.
After the votes were counted, the election certified and the President sworn in, the decision even in error, is final and irrevocable.

I quote from John Bingham while the Senate and he drafted the 14th amendment in 1866,
“I find no fault with the introductory clause, which is simply declaratory of WHAT IS written in the Constitution, that every human being born within the jurisdiction of the United States of PARENTS (plural) not owing allegiance to any FOREIGN sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself, a “natural born” citizen”.
Obama's FATHER owed allegiance to Britain and Kenya, not the US, and therefore he leaves his Son without a “NATURAL BORN' citizenship.

Inaccurate at best. Natural born included born on US soil, however some have argued that since Common law included children born abroad to one or more citizen, the case as you describe is far from clear. But yes, McCain's status has some doubts unlike Obama's, unless it can be shown that he was somehow born outside the US.

Good point, owing allegiance is a formal term to describe “subject to the laws” and excludes children born to ambassadors and invading military.
“All persons born in the allegiance of the king are natural-born subjects, and all persons born in the allegiance of the United States are natural-born citizens. Birth and allegiance go together. .Such is the rule of the common law, and it is the common law of this country, as well as of England. There are two exceptions, and only two, to the universality of its application. The children of ambassadors are in theory born in the allegiance of the powers the ambassadors represent, and slaves, in legal contemplation, are property, and not persons. 2 Kent Com. 1 ; Calven's Case, 7 Coke, 1 ; 4 Black. Com. 366 ; Lynch v. Clark, 1 Sandf. Ch. 139.
Source: United States v. Rhodes, 1 Abbott, US 28 (Cir. Ct. Ky 1866)
***
“It thus clearly appears that, by the law of England for the last three centuries, beginning before the settlement of this country and continuing to the present day, aliens, while residing in the dominions possessed by the Crown of England, were within the allegiance, the obedience, the faith or loyalty, the protection, the power, the jurisdiction of the English Sovereign, and therefore every child born in England of alien parents was a natural-born subject unless the child of an ambassador or other diplomatic agent of a foreign State or of an alien enemy in hostile occupation of the place where the child was born.
Source: United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898)
“In McKay v. Campbell, 2 Sawy. 118, it is said:
“By the common law a child born within the allegiance of the United States is born a subject thereof, without reference to the political status or condition of its parents.”
In 2 Kent, Cornm. (9th Ed.,) it is said that “natives are all persons bom within the jurisdiction and allegiance of the United States.” To the text is subjoined the following note:
“This is the rule of the common law, without any regard or reference to the political condition or allegiance of their parents, with tho exception of the children of embassadors, who are in theory born within the allegiance of the foreign power they represent” Calvin's Case, 7 Coke, 1; Lynch v.

I do not see any relevance in Obama following the customs of our country to take his father's surname. As a child however, he did not take his citizenship rather he was under British law, which has no relevance in the US, also a (temporary) british citizen. Since the acts of the father nor dual allegiance can affect the child's birthright, your comments seem to miss the point.
Lynch was about inherited New york property and has no legal weight to Natural Born citizens.
You mean the fact that Lynch explicitly talks about natural born has no relevance? Even though it is cited many times.

No requirements beyond a driver's license and a statement that one is born in the US.
After completing Sections I, II and III, and compiling the above items, submit your application and attachments to
your county sheriff. The sheriff will make a copy of your driver’s license or ID card, take your fingerprints and mail
the application packet to the AG. Eligible active duty military personnel living in Kansas and possessing a non-
resident driver’s license or state issued ID card are not required to surrender their non-resident identification.
However, active duty military personnel with non-resident identification must present their non-resident driver’s

When the certificate or equivalent paper from each state (or the District of Columbia) is read, “the President of the Senate shall call for objections, if any.” Any such objection must be presented in writing and must be signed by at least one Senator and one Representative.
It seems that we agree that the procedures were followed and that 'true patriots' failed to stand up. Such is life.

What part of “Chicago machine politician” is it that you don’t get, kid? Barry Soetoro is covering up like the proverbial housecat with two tablespoons of castor oil shoved down its gullet.
Despite his efforts to cover, conceal, and generally bamboozle, a lot of that money spent on quashing these demands for proof of his eligibility have been tracked. Among various places, see:

Hm. Got $688,316.42 in shyster bills in one lump right away.
Look, kid, are you still going to sit there in front of your Commodore 64 and keep insisting that your filthy, corrupt, criminal Mombasa Messiah is some kind of angelic role model for little boys and girls?

Look at the response and attacks on a well known host. Its vacious. Lou Dobb is a repected journalist and see an issue with it as well. When people ask a legalimate question and they attack in such a way…that’s dirty politics at its best.
Why can’t a citizen ask his/her president to show the appropriate birth certificate.When did the internet became a substitute for court evidence? Look at all what happens to people who are going against the establishment almost like the movies.
The US is about the freedom of speech and tolerance. Socialist, Facist, Communism is about controlling everyone’s freedom. US is about people having the right to overthrow the government if necessary and to keep the government in check. This is key to the Constitution. However, when people are “attacked” for exercising their speech and demanding proof of the eligibility from their president. The president should comply with the simple quest not spend a million fighting those requests and having people “loyal” to him perform a seek and destroy.
From the Declaration of Independence:
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”
While the Declaration of Independence is not law, it is a clear explanation of the justification for founding the United States and lays the groundwork for the Second Amendment:
The primary threat to any free state is it's own government, and the Founder unquestionably wrote this Amendment with that fact in mind.
When Bush and Cheney failed as an administration and was rightly being trashed by the people, the world and the media. However, it is now Obama in the government. And now the same people and the media, is protecting their messiah against other people challenging him instead of keeping an eye on him. Anyone that suspect, question, or challenges Obama is automatically consider a racist even thru the issue isn’t about race. It is about eligibility. And its question about eligibility that has not been resolved before the race. The race card is being played to reverse discriminate. That’s scary. Think Communist and socialism. Socialist. Remember, it is your job to question the government and keep them inline. Remember Bill Ayers and Frank Marshall Davis (childhood mentor), had socialist and communist ties and has a influence on him that you are seeing now in action. Bush and Cheney sucked and didn’t have the support of the people. Obama support comes from the grassroots and he plays to it using the poor vs. rich argument that had traditional been seen in other socialist and communism. While that’s ok. It is what he is actually doing to the country with his socialist moves that is worrisome. The question to a challenge of eligibility is simple and the response should be simple, too. Obama is hiding everything about his pertinent records and that’s a fact. You might feel that he is capable as President because he is capable but other feel otherwise. Eligibility is the starting point for people who wants to challenge him and it is the one issue that has not been resolved. Support him not by trashing his challengers but help him proving his innocence. People who doubt him asked repeatedly for the Long Form of the Birth Certificate (Certificate of Live Birth – not a certification) which he can voluntarily provide (via the only person who can unseal his BC at Hawaii). The challengers HAVE to result to the courts but Obama still fights it with now 1 million dollar ($800,000 before) to fight it. Even if he is a U.S. Citizen, he is hiding something and the BC is the starting point.

The citizens surely can ask the president for anything, that's not the issue. What the issue is that the President is under no requirement to respond.
he challengers HAVE to result to the courts but Obama still fights it with now 1 million dollar ($800,000 before) to fight it. Even if he is a U.S. Citizen, he is hiding something and the BC is the starting point.
There we go again with unsubstantiated rumors. What we do know is that Obama cashed in on $1040, actually $520 for him and $520 for Biden, when he was awarded cost in Keyes v Bowen.
Perhaps Obama is hiding something, who really cares. I thought this was about eligibility not a digging expedition? Or was I wrong, that would explain a lot and strengthens my argument that President Obama would do well not to release anything.

Unlikely that the hospital retained records that go back this far. What evidence do you have that the information is not correct? Remember that per law, this document is considered to be correct until evidence is provided that it is not accurate. Since the name of the physician is of no relevance to the issue of eligibility, there is no reason that discovery would be allowed.

This will be an interesting decade to witness, while so many people are waiting to be whisked off to heaven: When Obama goes on trial for pretending to be an American president, think of the thousands of sub-trials he will have to endure; let's see, how many murders has he committed in foreign wars? Then there's the “Falsely Signing Official Documents” trial. That should take about five years to conclude. Next, the trial(s) for falsely signing into law all legislative bills crossing his desk in the Oval Office.
Next, naturally he will be sued by the American people for non-payment of rent while partying and dirtying up the White House: That should only take about a day to settle. And then there’s the illegal Cabinet and all the Junkets he and his ‘staff’ took all over the world. Then the illegal taking of campaign contributions and scamming the Illinois Bar with bogus information about alias names, etc…
Next, his real backers will have to reimburse all of Obama's illegally received government paychecks to the US Treasury, not to mention all those appointee paychecks.
My only fear is that Mr. Usurper-in-Chief will flee to Kenya before he can be arrested and dragged from the Oval Office in disgrace: I think Kenya would probably fight extradition.
Well, there might be some compensation: It will be interesting to see how Joe (the Zionist) Biden justifies his right to take over the helm of the US when there was no real captain to confer those rights upon him…
Hey, and you were worried there would be no excitement during the second decade in the 21st Century!

If the President decides to invoke executive privilege, the Counsel to the President shall notify the former President, the Archivist, and the Attorney General in writing of the claim of privilege and the specific Presidential records to which it relates. After receiving such notice, the Archivist shall not disclose the privileged records unless directed to do so by an incumbent President or by a final court order.

Give me one 'case law' on bogus presidents.
I told you, 'de facto officer doctrine'. In fact, that was a major concern during the attempts to revise 'counting of electoral votes' after controversies had arisen. The congress, who understood the implications of a de factor officer doctrine wanted to make sure that any controversies could be resolved before Congress would have to certify the vote.
The de facto officer doctrine confers validity upon acts performed by a person acting under the color of official title even though it is later discovered that the legality of that person’s appointment or election to office is deficient. Norton v. Shelby County, 118 U.S. 425, 440 (1886). “The de facto doctrine springs from the fear of the chaos that would result from multiple and repetitious suits challenging every action taken by every official whose claim to office could be open to question, and seeks to protect the public by insuring the orderly functioning of the government despite technical defects in title to office.” 63A Am. Jur. 2d, Public Officers and Employees § 578, pp. 1080-1081 (1984) (footnote omitted). The doctrine has been relied upon by this Court in several cases involving challenges by criminal defendants to the authority of a judge who participated in some part of the proceedings leading to their conviction and sentence. Ryder v. United States (94-431), 515 U.S. 177 (1995).

You are confusing terminology. Obama was elected and thus cannot be a usurper but rather he would be a 'de facto officer' if he was later found to be ineligible. The acts of a de facto officer are valid and binding for obvious reasons.
Such is the case law. Shocking isn't it.
There is no such legal doctrine as 'bogus president'.

The 'de facto officer doctrine' was intended for officers of the court.
What people seem to have forgotten is that in the 19th Century, Congress was faced with a very similar situation in the Election of President Hayes. We can observe how Congress approached matters in those days, their reasoning and the outcome. For instance, Congress considered a bill in which the title of the President Elect could be challenged in Court, either the Supreme Court, or the Circuit Court if the Supreme Court lacked original jurisdiction. Senators strongly opposed this and argued that having the outcome of the elections decided by the judiciary was counter to the idea of the Founders, that the title of President could only be addressed by Congress via the 12th Amendment (the 20th Amendment did not exist yet) and that once a President was elected, his election was to last 4 years, even if errors were made as the decision to elect a President would be final and irrevocable.
What history shows is that when Congress had to deal with a similar situation as to whether or not a duly elected President’s title could be tried. And they clearly show that
1. Congress is the final arbiter per 12th amendment and its decision is final, and irrevocable, even if later found to be in error.
2. There is no place for the judiciary to decide on Presidential elections. This means that the use of Quo Warranto to try the title for Presidency is not provided for.
Now that Congress has refused to act it is the responsibility of 'We The People' to act in unison to redress this issue. It amazes me that 'We The People' are not unified in this regard. Is having a black president more important than maintaining the integrity of our Constitution when there is so much evidence* that Obama is not a natural born citizen?
*The fact that Obama is hiding all of his records (birth, university, passport, military,
et al), is certainly evidence of withholding proof of just who and what he is.

If what you suspect is revealed, then impeachment will do you no good. You will need to hire Frodo and Gandolf to go back to Mount Doom and get the Ring of Power out of the cauldron of fiery magma boiling in its base.
Have you paid attention to the suspicions of birthers? You can't beat a Mombassa Messiah Super Duper Evil Genius Mulatto Usurper by impeaching him. He owns the souls of the Senators and the mortgages of the House members.

What evidence do you have? Other than pointing to what appears so far to be a coincidence.
The Washington Times reported April 5 that contractors for the State Department had improperly accessed passport information for presidential candidates Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton, Barack Obama and John McCain, which resulted in a series of firings that reached into the agency’s top ranks.
One agency employee, who was not identified in documents filed in U.S. District Court, was implicated in a credit-card fraud scheme after Lt. Harris told federal authorities he obtained “passport information from a co-conspirator who works for the U.S. Department of State.”
Credit card fraud scheme… Hmmm, coincidence?

Why? The law which defines it, is clear. I told you to look up NARA 1270. My goodness do I have to do all the work myself? It links to 44 USC 2201
(2) The term “Presidential records” means documentary materials, or any reasonably segregable portion thereof, created or received by the President, his immediate staff, or a unit or individual of the Executive Office of the President whose function is to advise and assist the President, in the course of conducting activities which relate to or have an effect upon the carrying out of the constitutional, statutory, or other official or ceremonial duties of the President. Such term–
(A) includes any documentary materials relating to the political activities of the President or members of his staff, but only if such activities relate to or have a direct effect upon the carrying out of constitutional, statutory, or other official or ceremonial duties of the President; but
(B) does not include any documentary materials that are (i) official records of an agency (as defined in section 552(e) of title 5, United States Code; (ii) personal records; (iii) stocks of publications and stationery; or (iv) extra copies of documents produced only for convenience of reference, when such copies are clearly so identified.

Note that the following was reported by Orly Taitz and could not be independently verified.
“I have resubmitted Easterling et al v Obama et al in the form of Motion for Leave of Court to submit under the original jurisdiction. I called the Supreme Court and was told that the clerk for original jurisdiction is Cynthia Rapp 202-479-3000 extention 3014.
I inquired about the case and she said: “don’t bother submitting, it will be denied, it is only for disputes between the states”. I stated to her that article 3 of the Constitution allows Original jurisdiction of the Supreme court for cases involving ambassadors and and ministers as well. She asked if I am an ambassador and I told her that I am not and I don’t have to be. Constitution does not specify that the ambassadors have to be plaintiffs, which means that they can be defendants. Her response was -listen to me, it will be denied. I protested by saying that it is not up to the clerks to decide, it is up to the justices of the Supreme Court to decide whether they will exercise their right to hear the cases under original non-exclusive jurisdiction or not. It is really not up to the clerks. She needs to docket the case and forward it to the justices. She responded by saying: “It is up to us, we do the screening”. I responded, that they can do the screening of technical errors, not decision on the merits of the case. Even with technical errors there were precedents from different Federal courts, that if the case mostly complies, the clerk has to docket it with the notation of the error, to be addressed and corrected by the attorney of record. At that point she asked me if I am an attorney. I told her, yes I am, what about you? She said “OK, submit it”.
Note: Cynthia Rapp is correct that the clerks get to decide whether or not submissions to the Court follow established procedures and in case of Original Jurisdiction, the Supreme Court only has exclusive Original Jurisdiction is cases between two States. In cases involving ambassadors, Consuls etc, the Supreme Court does not have exclusive Jurisdiction especially since the legislative Branch has granted exclusive Jurisdiction in these cases to the District Court. It is even less clear that a case which only indirectly involves Ambassadors falls under Original Jurisdiction but assuming that it does, the combination Quo Warranto and Cases involving Consuls would mean that the District Court of DC remains the only viable option. In order to qualify for Quo Warranto, the plaintiffs have to petition the Attorney General of DC or the United States to file such a case with the DC Courts.” [End of quote]

In the words of jimpa, NOTHING he does today is as important as acting on your reasonable suspicion.
But before you do, post a link here for us that supports your claim that “roadblocks and money being spent to block the discovery ($1 million from Obama)” is the reason for your failure to meet your burden of proof to provide admissible evidence.
David Weigel and MANY others have written articles that show there is NO evidence for the birthers' repeated plucked-from-the-air $1MM or $800,000 figure, or any other figure. Birthers end up having to pay Obama's attorneys' fees when the frivolous cases get thrown out. So the net cost is exactly the cost of whistling when you walk to work.
Except no one mocks you for defending a frivolous lawsuit and getting your money back. Whistlers better know how to throw a right cross.

That's all we really know. The rest is pure speculation, since Obama was not even mentioned in many of the lawsuits, he unlikely incurred any cost.

Yes, Orly has tried to get Easterling accepted by Scotus despite the Court rejecting it or refusing to accept it under her novel theory of Original Jurisdiction.
I am glad we get to settle this. How long has this been going on now? I believe she submitted her original pleading early 2009 after she 'met' with Supreme Court Justices.

The report is accurate as to SCOTUS refusing to accept her filing under the Original Jurisdiction doctrine. Orly believes that adding ambassadors to the lawsuit somehow gives her Original Jurisdiction standing. One cannot short cut the legal system through “novel” arguments.
Comment posted July 27, 2009 @ 8:56 pm
This is an absurd debate. As far as I can see, the birthers have no evidence to back up their claims. They are simply jumping on this and running with it. Why was there not a similar debate when Bush took office? Is it because he is white? To an outsider seeing this take place from Canada I have to tell you that it looks very much like disguised racism that this is being pursued when a COLB has been made public (something Obama did not have to do) and there is, as I understand it, a birth announcement with his name on it in the local Hawaiian newspaper regarding his birth. I have yet to read anything that would give the birther arguement any merit. Seriously, I am stuck by the fact that I heard no such debate about Bush, Clinton, Bush Sr., Regan, Carter, or anyone else. The only other time I have heard of this being questioned is McCains candidacy because he was reported BORN IN PANAMA. That I can see raising some questions since Panama is outside of the US, but Hawaii was a US state at the time of Obama's birth.
Also, any indication against Obama being a US citizen also critiques the entire system that accepted his candidacy in the first place. It was mentioned earlier, but it would mean that a lot of people that are highly respected and intelligent would have had to overlook a fundamental qualification…I find that absurdly hard to believe.

I forget where I read it, but it was on this site in an article. There's another reimbursement check made out to Obama's attorneys for $1,067 floating around out there from another frivolous filing. So now we're almost up to the amount of an average mortgage payment.
Except both sums were repaid to Obama.
So the net cost is borne by the birthers. Or the people who let them out of their cages to wreak havoc on sanity and punctuation throughout the hemisphere.

At best, she could have simply tried to win the PR battle by saying “After some discussion with the clerk, I prevailed upon her that she should accept my submission under the supplemental jurisdiction doctrine, and the clerk agreed that I am allowed to submit the motion for leave to reconsider, etc.” That's a true statement and doesn't reveal Taitz to be a complete waste of carbon.

Please show us were in the constitution Natural born citizen is defined as having both parents Americans.
It of course isn't which is why courts have deferred this to Common Law interpretations of those days which included anyone born on US soil regardless of the status of the parents, with minor exceptions

Period. Very clear. He is ineligible. He is a fictitious “president.”

No, he was by statute a citizen of the UK and a natural born citizen of the US. GEez…
You said it yourself, if it were natural, it would not be granted by statute now would it?

So you claim and yet you undermined your whole argument by pointing to a British Act which made Obama per statute a citizen of the UK while ignoring the fact that by being born on US soil, Obama was a natural and native born citizen of the United States.
We can go from there and I can show you why such a birth right citizenship is not affected by dual citizenship, as long as the child is a minor. But I get the impression that you are 'done with me'. I appreciate your interactions however short.

Actually, Arlen, the framers went out of their way to avoid using Vattel's concept of natural born citizen as expressed in the Law of Nations.
There are well-known maxims of legislative interpretation, among them that where the legislature has the opportunity to include certain language but does not do so, the omission is seen as deliberate, and must be read accordingly.
They were well aware of his concept but didn't use it. Your argument, unsupported and vague (what “texts” were “clear” about what?), as it is, falls apart at the outset.

Dem Congressman Offering Resolution Recognizing Hawaii's History — As Obama's Birthplace
By Eric Kleefeld – July 27, 2009, 4:17PM
Rep. Neil Abercrombie (D-HI) is set to give the House Republicans a chance to put up or shut up on the Birtherism that is circulating among their grassroots base, Greg Sargent reports: A House resolution recognizing Hawaii as President Obama's birthplace.
Technically, the resolution's main purpose will be to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Hawaii's statehood. And while commemorating that grand history, the resolution will of course mention how the state is Obama's birthplace.
This gives Republicans a choice: Vote yes on the resolution, which would repudiate the Birthers; vote no, to endorse them; or skip the vote, which would basically be the same as voting no.
Abercrombie spokesman Dave Helfert seemed to be humorously denying that this was an effort to put the GOP on the spot. “Far be it from us to try to stir things up,” said Helfert. “The president was born there, so what are you gonna do? Not mention it?”

New filing in Kerchner
On January 20, 2009, Plaintiffs Charles F. Kerchner, Jr., Lowell T. Patterson, Darrell James LeNormand, and Donald H. Nelsen, Jr. (collectively “Plaintiffs”) filed the present action challenging President Barack Obama’s eligibility to hold the Office of President of the United States. Dkt. Entry 1. On June 26, 2009, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss this action. Dkt. Entry 27. On July 20, 2009, Plaintiffs filed their opposition to Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the Complaint. Dkt. Entry 34. On July 22, 2009, Plaintiffs filed a Cross-Motion for Leave to File a Second Amended Verified Complaint nunc pro tunc. Dkt. Entry 36. Defendants now reply to Plaintiffs’ opposition to their Motion to Dismiss and oppose Plaintiffs’ Cross-Motion to Amend. For the reasons stated in Defendants’ moving brief to dismiss the complaint and herein, Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the Complaint should be granted and Plaintiffs’ Cross-Motion to Amend should be denied.
The issue is that the plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint in violation of federal rules of civil procedures and may now be precluded from having the second amended motion, which is a hodgepodge of claims, considered.
Plaintiffs’ second amended verified complaint plainly does not comport with Rule 8(a). The complaint contains 387 paragraphs of allegations, a 30-paragraph prayer for relief, and 43 single-spaced endnotes. As such, the Defendants cannot respond to it in its present form, and it should be dismissed.

What you call a smoke screen, I call “put up or shut up.”
There are members of the GOP who are in elected office who haven't had to say anything about this birther nonsense.
Their constituents are free to believe that their representatives believe whatever the respective constituents want.
Bertha Birther in District 1 can believe that GOP Rep Ronald believes that Obama's birth certificate is fake and he's a usurping Kenyan shape-shifter.
Rita Realistic in District 1 can believe that Rep Ronald believes Obama is a flashy President, but a President all the same.
Ronald gets both of their votes.
Enter this new resolution.
Ronald has to take a stand with one side or the other. He loses one vote. And gains either momentary respect that passes as the world resumes doing business, or a jeering, mocking fan club that will dog his diminished political career everywhere except when he hikes all the way to the Republican base of the the Appalachian Trail.
Not really a “smoke screen.” More like “smokin' 'em out of their holes,” as President Bush so eloquently put it.

I have followed the Obama eligibility issue from the beginning. At first I thought it was nothing more than a political smear tactic, however as more information comes out about it the more I believe that he is not eligible for the office of POTUS. I even contacted the Secretary of State's Office both in Illinois and my home state of Tennessee. Both offices stated that they do not verify that candidates meet the eligibility requirements for candidates. The only thing that is required is that the candidate sign a statement saying that they are eligible.
Many seem to be blurring the lines between the terms 'citizen' and 'natural born citizen'. The term 'natural born citizen' has never clearly been defined by our legal system although statements made by people involved with framing the US Constitution appear to indicate that a 'natural born citizen' is an individual born to two US citizen parents and not owing allegiance to any foreign governments.
When asked to define natural born citizen, John Bingham, the author of the 14th ammendment which extended the bill of rights to former slaves, stated, “Every human being born to parents who are US citizens and are under no other jurisdiction or authority.” The Naturalization Act of 1790, also passed by this congress, declared “And the children of citizens of the US shall be considered as natural born, provided that the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been a resident of the US.” Neither of these definitions mentions birthplace, only the citizenship of the parents.
http:/ / www. fightthesmears.com/articles/5/birthcertificate
“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.”
In the case of Obama, his father was NOT a US citizen, regardless of where Obama was born. As a minor, he lived in Indonesia for several years and school records there indicate that he had Indonesian citizenship, while at that time Indonesia did not recognize dual citizenship. As an adult in college, he traveled to Pakistan and it has been questioned as to what country issued the passport he traveled on. An individual involved in illicitly accessing Obama's passport records was murdered, shot in his vehicle (http://www.federaljack.com/2009/07/11/key-witne…). Obama has spent nearly $1 million trying to prevent the release of documents that nobody should have a problem releasing when applying for the office of POTUS, or for that matter, ANY job. These documents include his long form birth certificate (in his book Dreams of My Father he states on page 26 that he has it), his college application and records, his grad school application and records (these documents state citizenship and financial aid being received), his published news articles for the Havard Law Journal as the editor, his medical history, and his US passport travel history.
The COLB that he has published proves nothing, even the State of Hawaii will not accept that as proof that he was born there. The birth announcements also prove nothing. I was born in Louisiana, yet my birth announcement showed up in a newspaper in Indiana because my grandmother called the paper to have it put in since my parents had both grown up there.
The bottom line is that where there is smoke there is fire, and Obama's actions in trying to conceal these documents, documents that anyone not having something to hide would have revealed immediately, speaks volumes. These are the same documents that I had to produce when applying for an entry level security position with police/sheriff/probation departments. Obama is NOT my president because he has not shown that he is eligible.

Assemble outside their offices in areas where the lighting is good for television cameras. Sing patriotic songs spontaneously. Speak in tongues and wail for the slain unborn if you can remember. Bring signs from home.
But the main thing is, do not give up. Pay no attention to the GOP RINO's who try to write this off as an idiotic pursuit that is only taken up by a handful of crazies (Ann Coulter) or the weak-kneed drafter of the birth certificate bill, Tom Campbell (R – CA) who admitted on Hardball that he believes President Obama was born in Hawaii.
Stick with the REAL leaders. GOP men and women of substance, family values, and the good sense to pay off their mistresses and EACH of their mistresses' children, without leaving one little guy out in the cold.
But don't give up. Your country needs you to focus all your attention and energy, and that of your like-minded friends and representatives, on this issue to the exclusion of all others.

Belief has nothing to do with the constitutionalist perspective on Barry Soetoro’s qualification to be Bubba-ing White House interns on the carpet in the middle of the Oval Office, swimmer.
You don’t have to “believe” anything about him. What you’re pushing for is verification of a Chicago machine politician’s bona fides (like such a thing is even remotely possible) with regard to sworn attestations he made in every state presidential primary last year to the effect that he was “qualified” to run for the presidency in the first place.
His notarized signatures are on file, and he can’t run away from ‘em.
If Barry Soetoro (passing himself off as “Barack Hussein Obama II,” a name he lost when he had been legally adopted by Lolo Soetoro in his checkered and gadabout childhood) is not able to present unimpeachable documentary proof of his qualification, then each of those signed attestations pertinent to the primary contests is a separate count of criminal perjury. Also fraud? Yeah, probably.
That being the case, the “high crimes and misdemeanors” bit kicks in, and Barry’s impeached. Whether the Senate agrees to nail him or not, he’s not gonna be able to run the Executive Branch from a cell somewhere in the federal prison system, even if (under the RICO Act) most of the National Socialist Party’s leadership goes into jail with him.

“Rachel” gives it away by indicating that although she followed closely from the beginning and once thought it a political smear tactic, she has come to believe that President Obama is not eligible.
Fail. No one who paid attention to this year-old story became MORE convinced as time passed. If anything you click on one or two links and see a birth certificate and then get back to looking at your friends' worst dates on Facebook.

Salon: President Obama U.S. House Resolution, Acknowledging his Place of Birth as [Hawaii] and Republican Michelle Bachman Voted [Yea] to the Resolution.
On Monday afternoon, it seemed that one House Republican, Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, had indeed moved to support the birthers, as liberal blog Think Progress reported that she blocked the bill.
This time, though, Bachmann was being criticized unfairly. She did indeed block a vote on the resolution, noting the absence of a quorum, but that move wasn't about Abercrombie's resolution specifically. She was just playing her part. The House had already decided to postpone the votes on all of the resolutions being considered under a suspension of the rules until Monday evening. Bachmann noted the absence of a quorum for several other non-controversial pieces of legislation so that those votes, too, could be postponed until the scheduled time.
In fact, as a spokeswoman for Bachmann told Salon — and C-SPAN video of the congresswoman's remarks on the House floor confirmed — Bachmann supports the resolution.
After the postponement, on Monday evening the resolution passed — unanimously.
Note: Bachmann was one of the [Yea Votes]

This one is even better, the Director of Hawaii's Department of Health releases a statement that Obama was born in Hawaii.
“In an attempt to quash persistent rumors that President Obama was not born in Honolulu on Aug. 4, 1961, Hawai'i's health director reiterated this afternoon that she has personally seen Obama's birth certificate in the Health Department's archives.“I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, director of the Hawai'i State Department of Health, have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawai'i State Department of Health verifying Barrack Hussein Obama was born in Hawai'i and is a natural-born American citizen. I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago….”
On Oct. 31, Fukino originally tried to put an end to the belief among so-called “birthers” that Obama was not born in the United States and thus was ineligible to run for the office of president.”
And the The House voted unanimously 378 to 0 to approve the resolution which included the line “Whereas the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama, was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961;”

That is why over the past several days I have spent less and less time beating around the bush. You're not going to convince a birther he is wrong. You can convince others that the birther is disingenuous, however. (Others already know the birther is wrong…)
Did I read you right?

You're a diligent one. Please tell me that you're not doing this back-and-forth with birthers for THEIR benefit, but rather for the benefit of third parties who might be taken in by one or another of the less-specious claims birthers repeat ad nauseum.
I am doing this for the benefit of all who are interested in the facts as I have found them to be. I provide as much as possible links and references so that people can double check the original sources and make up their own mind. I also aim to prevent birthers from making foolish statements that have since long been disproven.
And I do it for my own benefit because as a voter and citizen I am interested in understanding these issues and a researcher I have an urge to seek my own sources when possible.
Curiosity, compassion and hope those are my driving motives.

House passes resolution that states Obama was born in Hawaii,[ 378-0]
This evening, the House passed a resolution sponsored by Rep. Neil Abercrombie (D-HI) that commemorates Hawaii’s 50th anniversary as a U.S. state by a vote of 378-0. The resolution also contains this provision: “Whereas the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama, was born in Hawaii,” a measure that some GOP members may have had trouble supporting.
However, many of the Republican representatives who at expressed at least subtle doubt that Obama was not born in the U.S. voted for the resolution. Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN), who had earlier in the day prevented the resolution from coming to a voice vote on the House floor, and Rep. Bill Posey (R-FL), who sponsored a bill requiring presidential candidates to prove natural-born citizenship, both voted for the resolution. Rep. John Campbell (R-CA), a co-sponsor of Posey’s bill who expressed doubt about Obama’s citizenship last week on MSNBC, did not vote.

Sure are a lot of morons on the “Hey, ain't nothin' wrong here!” side.
As two minutes of googling will show you, back in the 1950's Hawaii would issue a “Certificate of Live Birth” to anyone who claimed their kid was born in the state. So *if* Obama has one, it doesn't prove jack-shit about where he was actually born.
Second: Hospitals in Hawaii keep records that are roughly as good as those kept in every other state, but so far no one has been able to find any record of a Stanley Ann Dunham or any permutation or combination of her various names in any hospital in the state around the time of Obama's birth. And you debunkers explain that…how? Coincidence, right?
Third: Obama's refusal to *permit* the release of his frickin' *college records* piques the curiosity of rational beings. What's the down-side of doing that? Did he have a really awful GPA? BFD–ain't disqualifying from office. Would we learn he took anti-American courses from radical Marxist profs? Tell us something we didn't already know.
The only–I say again, only–plausible reason for his refusing to allow the release of his college records is that he applied to college as a foreign student. Which he would have done because it would give him an inside track to reduced or waived tuition. BUT which now would cut against his claim to have been an American citizen *all along*.
All you debunkers throwing down charges of racism: You have implicitly rejected the Constitution as having any meaning or force. I can't wait for the day when you seek the protection it would have afforded you, only to find it's not there. Because you and your allies killed it.

Of course he isn't interested in the facts. Why should they, they live in a state of constant denial. The bit about anyone getting a COLB even if they weren't born in the state of Hawaii has been debunked but they still don't care.
No issue of a passport that anyone can find for travel between the two countries. And Hawaii does NOT issue COLB to anyone that walks in the door.

Okay, so there are 435 members of the House. 378 members voted “for” that resolution, none apparently voted “against.” Meaning that 57 were either absent, abstained or (Barry-like) voted “present.” Still not total cover from our Fraudulence-in-Chief's former junior colleagues on both sides of the aisle among the nation's only “distinctly native American criminal class.”
And that a bunch of professional politicians supports a fellow career con artist's contention that up is down and hot is cold and taxes are paid “voluntarily” by all us civilians is indicative of…what, precisely? As if The Congressional Record weren't America's longest-running publisher of fiction?

You're a buffoon.
“back in the 1950's Hawaii would issue a “Certificate of Live Birth” to anyone who claimed their kid was born in the state.”
When did you become an expert on 59 year old Hawai'ian customs? Link to your absurd claim?
Dr. Fukino issued ANOTHER press release today attesting to the fact that Obama was born in Hawaii and is natural-born.
“Aug. 4, 1961, Hawai'i's health director reiterated this afternoon that she has personally seen Obama's birth certificate in the Health Department's archives.
“I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, director of the Hawai'i State Department of Health, have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawai'i State Department of Health verifying Barrack Hussein Obama was born in Hawai'i and is a natural-born American citizen. I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago….”
On Oct. 31, Fukino originally tried to put an end to the belief among so-called “birthers” that Obama was not born in the United States and thus was ineligible to run for the office of president.”"
The only – I say again, only – reason you keep spewing nonsense is because you can't handle reality. Obama is the President. He was elected. He doesn't need to show you anything. If you don't like it, register some Republicans. Or stick your fingers in your ears or any other orifice where you can make a few of them fit.
But by all means, don't give up. Go pester your GOP leaders. Ask them why the House unanimously approved a resolution today that indicates in part that Obama was born in Hawaii.
A birther saying someone else has rejected the Constitution is like an alcoholic telling a person who likes french fries that they lack self-restraint. Get a grip.

Okay. Not being able to review the post of mine about which little stevie is whining (if, indeed, this particular burst of psychotic verbiage on his part isn't completely free-floating), I'm kinda stuck with addressing what we'll call for the sake of charity his “point.”
Hey, they taught us how to handle stool samples (carefully, with double-gloving) in med school. Might be something here if we get it under strong light with a little Giemsa staining….
Hm. On the “fig leaf” expression…. No, only a masochist like stevie would put something as horribly itchy as a fig leaf over his naughty bits. Yet another proof about stevie's past history; he's never done husbandman's work on fig trees. He imagines that there are congresscritters interested in giving (or, for that matter, necessary for) political “cover” on the constitutional issue of questioning stevie's Mombasa Messiah's lawful qualification to be stripping himself naked in the privacy of the Oval Office and watching pornographic videos on the Presidential DVD player.
Now where did I say that? My remarks as best I recall humorously denigrate the whole of Congress as (in Mr. Clemens' words) our country's only “distinctly native American criminal class,” and therefore about as much to be relied upon to police our Kenyan Keynesian as we might rely upon the Bloods to police the Crips.
So would it matter even if “the entire House” WERE to have agreed with Mr. Abercrombie (D-Hezbollah) in his snarky little resolution? Tsk.
Well, stevie says he's a lawyer. The U.S. House of Representatives consists, in the main, of his colleagues. But that's stringing professional courtesy along entirely too tenuously, isn't it?

Mostly Army. One of 'em was even in the Airborne's jump on Topside on Corregidor. Not much opportunity for loot when they were up against the Nips.
I once asked my Airborne uncle if he brought out any souvenirs. He showed me an Arisaka rifle and then patted his ass. “That's the only souvenir I really wanted to bring home, kid.”

Looking through a glass, darkly, at AKA Obama’s Birth Certificate.
http://thesteadydrip.blogspot.com/2009/07/aka-o…
The latest announcement from Hawaiian Officials aren’t any more help than their original announcement. Today this was released:
“I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, director of the Hawaii State Department of Health, have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barrack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen. I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago….”
I don’t doubt that Dr. Fukino is accurately reporting that the document he saw says that AKA Obama was indeed born in Hawaii.
“Laws of the Territory of Hawaii ACT 96 To Provide For The Issuance Of Certificates Of Hawaiian Birth was in effect from 1911 until 1972 and allowed someone who was born outside the Hawaiian Islands to be registered as though he were born in Hawaii. Under that law, someone simply would have presented herself to the Hawaiian authorities and declared that the child was born in Hawaii. The person could have sworn under oath and presented witnesses and other evidence. If the authorities accepted it, that was the end of it. All a person had to do was file a false statement and Hawaii took them at their word.
One could not just say “My kid was born in Des Moines but I want him to have a Hawaiian birth record”. But if you lied no investigation was conducted to validate your claim and the Hawaiian birth record was issued no questions asked.
Knowledge of this practice was wide spread and there are probably thousands of people who obtained Hawaiian birth records between 1911 and 1972 through the process of affidavits and witnesses rather than hospitals and delivery doctors.
The only way to know where AKA OBAMA was actually born is to view AKA OBAMA's original birth certificate on file in Hawaii to see what kind of birth certificate it is, and to examine what corroborating evidence supports what it says about AKA OBAMA's alleged place of birth. If the birth was in a hospital, as AKA OBAMA has maintained, such evidence would be the name of the hospital and the name and signature of the doctor who delivered him.
Excerpt from: http://thesteadydrip.blogspot.com/2009/04/aka-o…
Here is the information on Hawaiian law that makes it clear why we will never know the truth until we see the actual birth certificate.

You're still a doofus. If you have to explain your obscure cultural reference, that's a good indication not to use it.
NO doctor, practicing or retired, would slur the handicapped. I doubt seriously that any doctor would fantasize in print, repeatedly, about the President being sodomized in prison or raping little dogs. I certainly wouldn't associate with any professional who behaves as you do.
Find someone as disturbed as you are and try to one-up them. That's the only way you'll ever have any fun. Staying here will just get you called out for being yourself. You're a doofus.
And no, I don't slander my clients. I happen to take my own obligations and responsibilities toward people who come to me for advice and representation seriously. Pity that you never learned about the concepts of “oaths” or “seriously.”

frank is trying to lurk around the less popular threads. I sent him a few words of encouragement. His new thing is to label us “commie subhumans.' I love how he can't even insult us properly.
Hey, what's this nonsense about the President having a Budweiser when that cop shows up with Skip Gates? You just know they took a poll to decide what kind of beer the President should drink. I wonder how much press coverage this Beer Summit will get that could otherwise have gone to my favorite story, the Conspiracy Theory That Swallowed a Party.

“Laws of the Territory of Hawaii ACT 96 To Provide For The Issuance Of Certificates Of Hawaiian Birth was in effect from 1911 until 1972 and allowed someone who was born outside the Hawaiian Islands to be registered as though he were born in Hawaii.</blockqoute>
I called you on this one before and showed that the actual act states “children born in Hawaii”
Why do you continue to misrepresent?

Aw, stevie, just what the hell d'you know about the medical profession or how doctors talk among themselves – or how we might write if we're reasonably sure it's not going to come out on CraigsList and screw with our abilities to get a living for ourselves and our families?
Remember the first M*A*S*H novels? It was only very late in the life of the thoracic surgeon who wrote those books that anybody penetrated his “Richard Hooker” pseudonym. Ditto for the pshrink who wrote the immortal '70s satire The House of God. The only doc I know personally who signs his own name to his non-medical output is F. Paul Wilson, a GP in New Jersey who started writing science fiction in medical school, and now makes a helluva lot more money for his “dark horror” fantasy stuff than he does as a part-time and semi-retired family physician nowadays.
And I'm not writing anything that “slurs the handicapped.”
Except, of course, Obamaphiles are “the handicapped,” in their sick, twisted, sociopathic socialist self-abusive, predatory, miserable dedication to the illusion that Barry Soetoro isn't the kind of person upon whose move to your neighborhood you'd want “Community Notification” and regular police patrols in order to keep him away from playgrounds, your kids, and your family pets.
I get your perspective, stevie. As soon as you get your sex change, you want to fly out east to Washington City, apply for a White House intern position, buy yourself a pair of knee-pads, and go to work on – er, I mean, for – your Mombasa Messiah, whom you worship and love and whose babies you want to have.
And you don't mock your clients? Really? Aw, but you're a lawyer, stevie. You lie for a living. D'you seriously expect anybody to take your word for anything, much less an attestation of professional probity?
Jeez, wotta dogwhistle you are….

Ok, I stopped reading when I realized that the whole purpose of your post was to fabricate a memory about how much you enjoyed touching feces in the medical school you never attended.
I laughed for a while. Then I kept reading.
I said YOU hide behind a fig leaf and I get something from you about MY “naughty bits?” Yesterday you went on about my foreskin. You're really an icky guy. I knew I was right about the initial read I had about you. Who but a closet homosexual takes such interest in other men's anatomy or fixates on forcible homosexual sodomy without lubrication?
Seriously, test-taker tushy-toucher. You've gone well beyond the lunacy of other birthers. You're in a creepy class all your own. Good thing you're completely impotent, both intellectually and physically, and you give yourself away by you uncontrollable, foaming-at-the-mouth idiocy.
Now then, since we've established that you're a pervy creep, and not in a good way, let's get on to more pressing business. Today we saw the resolution pass the House unanimously, indicating Obama was born in Hawaii. Already read your complete unwillingness to accept reality as to that point. But I haven't yet read your evasion, surely there is one, of the good Dr. Fukino's statement of today's date verifying yet again that Obama is a natural-born citizen, born in Hawaii as the world's most famous COLB states plainly.
What's your insane take on the matter, test-taker? How can we be sure that the good Doctor is not on the take? WWMND? (What would Mrs. Nordyke do?)

Geez, test-taker. You snatch defeat from the jaws of…well, not victory. You snatch shame from the jaws of less shame all too often.
I was about to give you a nod for “Kenyan Keynesian” because that's actually the least-offensive slur you have made to date.
But then I got to the “rely upon the Bloods to police the Crips.”
test-taker, 1987 was over a long time ago. Not even the most out-of-touch white woman in Utah seriously believes we still have Bloods and Crips running around anywhere except a John Singleton movie. You're dating yourself. Which is unremarkable, given that you're wretchedly, utterly lonely and clearly trying to make friends.
See, the funny thing is, since you're so clearly disturbed, there's a part of me that wants to revive your humanity, see the good in you, even represent you in whatever dispute your idiocy brings you into… Because actual professionals, doctors, lawyers, what have you, believe they have an obligation to help those who need help.
Real doctors, for example, would never mock a handicapped person. Handicapped people cannot help their disability.
On the other hand, I recognize that you CAN help it. No one is making you type all the nonsensical racist crap you write. This is why I ultimately get past the human instinct I have to feel compassion for you, and ultimately return to pointing out what a doofus you are.
You said you hate people and judge them. I don't hate people. I get angry at them. I won't say I don't judge people. But I do believe I judge them fairly. I'm certain I almost always judge them accurately. And if I was wrong about you, I'd eat my birth certificate. It would help me become President, using your nutty faux reasoning.
Well, get back to sniffing your own smegma or whatever the hell you do when I don't write you, test-taker. Really hope you come to your senses and take up collecting tin cans or something as a more productive hobby. Should you not do so, I'll still be here to point out what a doofus you are. You bring it on yourself.
Cheers.

Hm? Like there aren't plenty of guys working full-time in the transplant programs who couldn't disassemble your stinking carcass in about half an hour while listening to the baseball scores? My participation in such processing consists mostly in filling out the paperwork beforehand. Wherever you are when you bite the big one, outhouse, there's bound to be somebody who can do my job perfectly well, and launch you on your way to such an apotheosis as best befits you.
And a “trophy wife”? I wish! Family docs don't get “trophy wives.” That privilege is reserved for tertiary care specialists. Electrophysiologists. Thoracic surgeons. Interventive cardiologists. I've got the one who tripped me and dragged me to the Justice of the Peace all those decades ago, and who said “In my family, we don't divorce our men; we bury them.”
Hey, I'm Sicilian. I know when I've been made “an offer [I] can't refuse.”
Sheesh. Propofiol (Diprivan) noise. Dummy, that's an induction anesthetic. Dunno where you live, but the Anesthesiology Department guards that stuff like a hawk. It'd be very useful in the Emergency Department – under appropriate cardiorespiratory monitoring – for knocking down patients for short, painful procedures like reducing closed fractures, but the gas-passers refuse so much as to entertain a draft protocol for the compound's use outside the operating suite or – when they get called upstairs to do an intubation – in the CCU.
I'd still like to learn how a vial – or more – of that stuff got into Michael Jackson's house, or into his corpse. Major strange, that.
And I hope your “body parts will be functioning long after [my] worthless carcass” has been cremated (no way am I gonna have my kids uncork big money for “the solid bronze handles” and a concrete box six feet underground).

Do you pay attention to anything? Saying “you are wrong” without even making any argument, when you just got pwn3d, is an obvious admission of defeat.
nbc1's only error is in being too polite with you, as that encourages you to persist.
Nothing about the “Laws of the Territories of Hawaii” is on point here. No more so than any law dealing with the Louisiana Territory, before Louisiana became a state, is useful in determining any present-day Louisiana law that is in and of itself clear.
Hawai'ian state officials have authenticated the birth certificate and its information as recently as TODAY. Unless you have something that trumps that, hush up. Oops, change “unless you have” to “since you don't have.” Sorry, my mind is still on what a creepy pervert Tuci78 is turning into.

Ah, but you're an “ex-English major” and quit having anything to do with the sciences when you were in high school, right steve-a-reno? Hm. And a “liberal arts” major unfamiliar not only with the botany of the Ficus species but also the prudish use of carven and painted representations of fig leaves to conceal the pudenda in earlier depictions of the human body starting about 1530, which arose out of the purposeful intent to put something itchily irritating on those “Forbidden Zone” anatomical features?
Jeez, stevie. How did you do on your LSAT the first – or second, or third – time?
But I like the inferences about my (snicker!) alleged sexual interest in whatever it is you drag around between your heels and your hair-do, stevie. Gawd, you've got it – something weird, yeah, but definitely something suitable for a whole chapter in the next report of the Kinsey Institute – pretty bad, don'tcha?
Well, along with your fantasies about those images of your Kenyan Keynesian's putative COLB, why not fantasies about lickerish escapades with an elderly guy who routinely wears nitrile gloves and buys water-soluble surgical lubricant by the case every couple of years? “Turn your head and cough,” stevie.

Nope. Not interested in letting you play doctor, freakazoid. I certainly wish you had NOT talked about my anatomy. Almost as much as I wish you would fucking stop doing so yesterday if not sooner.
I continued to take science courses in college. Honors program, so some of them were unavoidable. But the most striking, all these years later, was a course called Environmental Geology. My LSAT score was enough to get the Univ. of Chicago to offer me a scholarship, but I don't agree with their politics. Kind of an odd thing the way it works out, given that I would have likely had a Constitutional Law class taught by the future President. That would be neat. As it was I learned con law from a former U.S. Supreme Court clerk, so it's not all bad.
I wouldn't have minded being in the same building as Richard Posner, but U of C's law library turned me off. They sell you on it by saying all the professors' offices are in the library building, but they don't tell you that the office doors are uniformly closed and locked. Eh, enough nostalgia. You're over there trying to get me to turn my head and cough. Ick.
And I notice you didn't even bother to bat back the softball about Dr. Fukino. So does this mean you've given up? You didn't say the word “Soetero” or the word “usurper.”

Y'know, just like the docs in the prison medical system will be treating your Mombasa Messiah for the rest of his natural life.
As for the Crips and the Bloods, would you rather I'd said “the Dead Rabbits” and “the Bowery gangs”? They were also contending criminal hoodlum organizations significant in the history of these United States. Are you aware of more current opposing bands of thugs to be cited in such a comparison? I'm not a lawyer, and therefore not so much on the felonious qui vive as you would naturally tend to be, stevie.
And I've said that I hate certain people, haven't I, stevie? I'm not dissembling. I judge the hateful as hateful predicated on their respect (or demonstrated lack of respect) for the rights – to life, to liberty, and to property – of their fellow human beings.

Ah, so if I was a patient, you'd treat me with respect, et cetera? Too bad you haven't built up credibility; I cannot say I will take your word for it.
If you'd said the Dead Rabbits etc at least I could flash back to a good DiCaprio movie. You mentioned a butcher in the family. Too bad it wasn't Bill from Gangs of New York. At least that would explain why you're so disturbed.
Sure, I'm aware of more-current gangs. But the point is that you clearly are not. I'd be surprised if you haven't read about MS-13 by now. You fancy yourself well-read and up-to-date.
Human morality should first be judged by the Golden Rule, naturally, test-taker. I don't think your own morality passes that test. If you found yourself on the receiving end of the totally unjustified smear campaign you've been waging against President Obama, state and federal government officials, factcheck.org, journalism school “jerkwads,” black people, Kenyan people, Indonesian people, and American voters, I doubt that you'd be so sanguine.
But it's much simpler than that. Humans who deem themselves omnipotent, who believe that they and they alone have the answer, no matter what the question is, are always wrong. And they are wrong for thinking that way. I already told you that God don't like ugly. Neither do decent people.
There's something about you that would make a young mother with young children cover her children's eyes and ears and shuttle them past you, should they ever come upon you in an airport terminal or something. You're probably one of those watery-eyed death's door crusty old cusses who always has a phlegmatic cough.
It's a measure of how stupid this birther issue is that only you and a couple of dedicated dead-enders even pretend to carry the birther banner anymore. You're clearly just doing it to get attention. What was your major issue before Obama was a Senator? Did you rail against the Telecommunications Act of 1996 because you were sure it would lead to fiber optic cable being laid in such a way that the Earth's magnetic field would favor people with pacemakers?

Aw, stevie, even you' gotta have anatomy. As an undergraduate, I studied and dissected plenty of invertebrates. Even though as an “ex-English major” you might think that your corpus is as solid as a potato, I assure you that there are all sorts of interesting hollow and solid viscera within the various cavities making up your torso.
As for what you'd studied in college, sure. And “On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog.” The thought of you possibly having had Richard Epstein as an instructor (University of Chicago School of Law) just kinda sits me back in a warm vision of watching your tiny little head explode….

The Dead Rabbits had been mentioned in that Gangs of New York movie? Didn't see it, I'm afraid. The wife dragged me, kicking and screaming, to see Titanic and I've scrupulously avoided DiCaprio's work ever since. Citing the Crips and the Bloods was – I thought – more likely to connect with modern Americans than mentioning criminal gangs like the Bowery boys, of whom the re-run watching modern knows only through Huntz Hall's opus.
So with what other gangs is MS-13 competing for turf and plunder? The only significant criminal organization around my home is the Democratic Party, and the local Republicans are a weak and watery joke.
So you like the Golden Rule? “Who has the gold makes the rule,” eh?
Or in its more religious sense, “Do as you would be done by,” right?
Hm. So what if the people you're “doing” don't want to be “done by” the way you do, stevie?
There's the problem with altruism and operations along the lines of “You'd like this if you were me, and so I'm gonna do it to you!” One man's blessing is another man's curse.
As for my previous amusements, opposing absolutely everything Dubbya ever did or got behind took up much of my time over the past eight years. Before that it was Bubba, and before that Dubbya's daddy….
Unlike you, counselor, I don't excuse statist arrogance, corruption, thievery, mercantilism, and socialism conducted under the tissue-paper fiction that what's being done to me and mine and my neighbors is even remotely within the limits of the law of the land.
“It would be a dangerous delusion were a confidence in the men of our choice to silence our fears for the safety of our rights… Confidence is everywhere the parent of despotism. Free government is founded in jealousy, and not in confidence. It is jealousy and not confidence which prescribes limited constitutions, to bind down those whom we are obliged to trust with power… Our Constitution has accordingly fixed the limits to which, and no further, our confidence may go… In questions of power, then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.“

Oh, Epstein is far from being a neocon. One of the most side-splittingly hilarious moments in my whole life came during the Senate confirmation hearings for Clarence Thomas, when Hairplug Joe Biden actually held up a copy of Epstein's book Takings: Private Property and the Power of Eminent Domain (1985) and hit the astonished Judge Thomas with a sort of:
“Are you now or have you ever been a proponent of the Fifth Amendment?”
question, as if the preservation of individual rights were some sort of crime upon which our Delaware Plagiarist had ah-hah! fixed to the nominee's detriment.
Ever heard Epstein lecture? Until Biden the Boob got sucked out of the Senate and into the Veep slot, I'd long had happy dreams about what it might be like to see him named as a candidate for the SCOTUS, and go through confirmation hearings in which Biden would be obliged to participate.
I think a couple of hours of undiluted Epstein would just plain kill Biden dead right there in his padded chair, wouldn't you?

PS:
Dr. Fukino was safe making her first statement because it didn't really say any thing:
“Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawai‘i, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawai‘i State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.”
In her recent statement the good doctor may have Fukinoed herself.
“I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, director of the Hawaii State Department of Health, have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barrack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen. I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago….”
In this statement she actually revealed information about what was on the Birth Certificate.
She may have unintentionally obligated herself to reveal everything that was on the document.
Like, what kind of birth certificate it is, and to examine what corroborating evidence supports what it says about AKA OBAMA's alleged place of birth. If the birth was in a hospital, as AKA OBAMA has maintained, such evidence would be the name of the hospital and the name and signature of the doctor who delivered him.
The wording on Sun Yat-sen’s Hawaiian birth certificate reveals that at age 18 he “made application for a Certificate of Birth. And that it appears from his affidavit and the evidence submitted by witnesses that he was born in the Hawaiian Islands.” Appears? It also appears that AKA Obama was born in Hawaii. Does the AKA Obama birth certificate on file with the State of Hawaii have language similar to the birth certificate of SunYat-sen?
Ask a lawyer.

Wow. I don't know whether to be pleased or disappointed, but I found nothing in that post irritating enough to feel obligated to reply. Normally I feel obliged to say something on behalf of those you slight. But I think you only jabbed at me, and even then you pulled the punches.
So let's give you a fair reply.
You should see The Aviator, about Howard Hughes. DiCaprio did what I considered to be an excellent job. I understand about Titanic. It sucked. And it kept sucking for a further 3 hours after it sucked.
MS-13 competes with everyone, Tuci. It's nationwide and spills over into a great many countries. Locally, in California, their greatest organized adversary is the Southern Mexicans, which recruits heavily from within prisons. MS-13 is primarily Latino but as I say, their operation is expanding.
“He who has the gold makes the rules” is a line I first heard when I was a boy watching Cannonball Run (maybe it was the sequel) with my family. Truer words were never spoken. But the funny thing is that as I've grown older, I think the statement needs fleshing out. It is still correct – gold-havers make rules. But so do others. Gold-coveters-who-don't-have-gold also make rules. Makes sense. But why, then, do those who have no chance at having gold themselves make rules? Why do powerless people take actions and express ideals that are contrary to their interests?
This brings us to birthers. Most of you were never serious about COLB and raised seal this and that. It's not about evidence or fact. It's about how you feel. You feel, or many of you do, like there's a giant shell game being played right in front of your eyes, by the people in power. You think you're being cheated. You're sure it happened before. You know it will happen again. Because you feel powerless. And that feeling, of predicting and watching and remembering yourself get ripped off, sucks.
I get that. I even get that for some of you, you fear what a black President will do, because you feel guilty about race relations and you're sure that the black guy is just waiting to take revenge on behalf of the rest of black America. Some of you are just racists. The rest of you are paranoid, guilt-ridden racists.
I don't get why you then choose to alienate the other people, who had nothing to do with your grievances, who clearly are not in power, but who simply don't see things your way. It would be one thing, in other words, if birthers reserved all their bitterness for the President and those who, they believe, conceal his actions.
But they almost uniformly insult the intelligence of everyone else in the way they make their “case” against President Obama. Of course, it's inherently insulting for someone to come along and tell you that they figured out something you were too dumb to notice, but birthers go the extra mile and insult your very way of life along the way. I don't believe in conspiracy theories, I can read and digest information on my own, and I happen to know a little something about law, so now I'm a mindless Obot paid blogger kool-aid drinking Allah-worshipping black racist insult-specialist socialist monkeyfucker who wants to take away American freedom and redistribute everyone's income? Oh-kay.
And all this, coming from a bunch of racists who can't spell? (I know, their slights are better than mine in this example.)
Moving on, what if the people you're doing don't want to be done by the way you're doing… Good, fair question.
Short answer is, if you agree to play a game, and the game is fairly played, you must accept the outcome as fair. If the dice are loaded or the billiard table is not level, that is different. If all is as it should be, then you play the game and accept the outcome.
Democracy has many risks. One is the tyranny of the majority, or the countermajoritarian difficulty. We believe that most people seek the good and that people will choose things that benefit themselves and everyone, if incentives are properly placed. But sometimes a majority of the people want something that a minority vehemently oppose.
That is a foreseeable and acceptable risk. The alternative forms of government are much worse, and all have the risk of failing to satisfy some minority slice of the populace. There are many options available to anyone who does not like the official action that the majority has just approved. This applies to everyone from people who don't like the President we elected to people who aren't satisfied with the CC&R's governing their homeowners' association.
Depending on what the specifics are, Tuci, I would say that a member of such an aggrieved minority should do one of several things:
- grin and bear it, recognizing that this is an acceptable risk of democracy;
- write letters to the editor or otherwise publish their opinion in the public marketplace;
- seek a variance from the objectionable law;
- associate with like-minded people to educate and inform public opinion, with a view toward changing the law or getting another vote, etc.;
- commence litigation to restrain the complained-of behavior;
- vote for a different candidate next time; or
- threaten to vote for a different candidate next time.
I would counsel them to seek to persuade, not vent. You lose any chance you have of getting your way if you start out by appearing unconcerned about realistic remedies and unwilling to answer reasonable questions.
I have no idea why you think I “excuse statist arrogance, corruption, thievery, mercantilism, and socialism conducted under the tissue-paper…” et cetera. Project much?
I am not aware of any statist arrogance at present. I didn't care much for the way former President Bush strutted and fretted his hour upon the world stage.
I don't excuse corruption. I am not naive enough to believe it doesn't exist, but that does not mean I excuse it. Target it without regard to political or other affiliation, prosecute it vigorously and again without regard to political or other affiliation, and punish it in a manner that deters similar behavior. Ditto with thievery.
I must confess that mercantilism doesn't get my blood boiling. Mostly because no one ever says mercantilism.
Socialism is when the state has total ownership of all means of production. We don't have that here. I'm sick of hearing about it from quasi-socialist former governor Palin. A progressive tax rate has been a bedrock feature of American life for decades. Taxes are a redistribution of income. Taxes are necessary. A great many of us DO pay them voluntarily. The whole argument about socialism and taxes is just a diversion for the Republican base and the Republican moneyed alike.
I think the problem is what I told you before about skeptics, normal people, and birthers. Skeptics need slightly more evidence to convince than do normal people, that's all.
You see all sorts of evils where I just see a bunch of people with big egos trying hard to do well at difficult jobs. You see complex conspiracies where I see people who don't accept losing an election to a black man. You just see things that I do not and never will see. And I'm quite sure that's because the things are not there; you just WANT to see them.
If I in fact perceived things like statist arrogance, I would be offended by it. I wouldn't go around making violent or absurd threats against the President, but I would be ticked off enough to write an email to my friends or attend a meeting or vote a different way, etc.
Well, that's enough of that. On Looney Tunes, Wile E. Coyote was often in a bit where he and a sheepdog showed up and punched the clock for shifts before heading off to play their roles as protector and stealthy hunter. Sam and Ralph. Before they clocked in, they were civil and friendly to each other, even politely standing in line to clock in for the day. Afterward, of course, it was TNT and ka-blam. You're not Sam and I'm not Ralph. Enough letting the guard down.
Get some sleep and then go find something beautiful to look at. Then stop believing that every single government institution and everyone who runs it is out to get you personally. You're wasting your time and calcifying your synapses so that this is literally the only way you'll be able to think if you don't stop soon. You don't want to be the old man whose grandchildren don't want to go visit because he freaks them out with his racist paranoia.
Well, maybe you do want that. But you shouldn't.

I'm well aware of who Richard Epstein is. I was referring to having the ability to learn from Epstein without going to UofC.
I've heard his lectures on video, not live.
Clarence Thomas, unlike John Yoo, doesn't make it up as he goes along, but the problem is he starts off way off the right hand side of the page and just never moves back onto the paper. So you need to be clear about what his initial impression is.
You know, or should, if you read even the intro of Epstein's book, that the question posed as you phrased it by Biden is a fair one when presented to someone like Clarence Thomas. In eminent domain, everything turns on what constitutes a taking. Right-wingers, to say nothing of purported strict constructionists like Thomas (who you must slavishly worship along with Scalia if you are a Sicilian and a constitutionalist as you claim), often have a stubborn refusal to recognize what is a taking and what is not. Moreover it's an issue the right uses to scare people. What a surprise.
I used to be the vice-chair of a committee that reviewed my city's general plan and advised the City Council as to how to revise it consistent with recent growth. I was elected by the businesspeople in my community to represent them. Others on the committee represented homeowners or public interest groups. Whenever we had meetings, the public was allowed to and did attend, and ALL of their concerns were about the exercise of eminent domain to take away their residential or low-yield commercial property. The eminent domain boogeyman never materializes in the way that people fear.
Wow. You DREAM about things like having Richard Epstein sit through Senate confirmation hearings where Joe Biden is talking? Your life must be even more wretched than I imagined. As Bart Simpson said to Lisa, “even your dreams are square.”
Go find something exciting to do. Take up watercolor painting. You clearly need to express yourself. Maybe you could hammer away at big pieces of metal until you feel you've worked out the tension and produced abstract art. Whatever you do, don't tell anyone else how fucking boring your dreams are.

“The campaign also compensated Perkins Coie for legal services between Oct. 16, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2008 – to the tune of $378,375.52.
Robert Bauer of Perkins Coie – top lawyer for Obama, Obama’s presidential campaign, the Democratic National Committee and Obama’s Organizing for America – is the same Washington, D.C., lawyer defending President Obama in lawsuits challenging his eligibility to be president.
Bauer sent a letter to plaintiff Gregory Hollister, a retired Air Force colonel, of Hollister v. Soetoro, threatening sanctions if he doesn’t withdraw his appeal of the eligibility case that earlier was tossed by a district judge because the issue already had been “twittered.” “

What you mistake as phony umbrage is incredulity. Whenever I think you've said ridiculously over the top nonsense, I read another of your posts and you've topped yourself.
The idea of YOU calling someone else out for moral bankruptcy is ludicrous.
You may take as me not being serious. It's more that it's impossible to take you seriously. What you say is repugnant but you've no means of doing anything about the issues of tyranny and usurpation that plague you so.
By the way, it always bugs me that you don't seem to know that a usurper is one who takes over without a claim of color of title. A de facto ruler is one who was elected but with an undetected disqualifying circumstance. President Obama was elected and is legitimate. Even if you doubt his legitimacy, he could never be a usurper.
I don't know why I should expect more intellectual honesty from you. But as eager as you are to show off your vocabulary, I am surprised at your continued misuse of such a common word.

“Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawai‘i, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawai‘i State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures,” Fukino said.

Klein asked CNN researchers to dig into the question of why Obama couldn't produce the original birth certificate. The researchers contacted the Hawaii Health Dept. and confirmed that paper documents were discarded in 2001 when the department went paperless. That reportedly includes Pres. Obama's original birth certificate.
http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageI…
“I am not aware of any birth certificate records that have been destroyed by the department,” Janice Okubo, public information officer for the Hawaii DOH, told WND. “When the department went electronic in 2001, vital records, whether in paper form or any other form, [were] maintained. We don't destroy records.”
“Sec.2
Notice Of Intent To Disclose Presidential Records
When the Archivist provides notice to the incumbent and former Presidents of his intent to disclose Presidential records pursuant to section 1270.46 of the NARA regulations, the Archivist, using any guidelines providied by the incumbent and former Presidents, shall identify any specific materials, the disclosure of which he believes may raise a substantial question of executive privilege.”
“
Don't you love the ping pong on this? All for a certificate that only Obama or the court can release. And given Executive Order 13233 ability to use executive privilege on “any specific materials”, the legal barriers are in place to prevent the release the BC.

Regarding DiCaprio in The Aviator, I'll take your advice and look out for it. I'd heard some of the film's score, and it was very good. On Titanic and its suckage, I have to keep some perspective. The wife also dragged me off to see Pearl Harbor (2001), and for a Roman Catholic widely and thoroughly read in military history, suffering through that horror in silence – as my wife threatened me in no uncertain terms I must – as well as through dinner afterward must certainly count for an indulgence damned near plenary in scope. At least a good hundred and fifty years of “time off for good behavior” in purgatory.
When Ben Affleck's character showed up at an RAF airfield during the Battle of Britain wearing U.S. Army Air Corps uniform and carrying a B-4 bag…. Oh, dear ghod. Savvy “act of war,” counselor? Never. Could. Happen.
And I shut up. And kept shut up. “When the fox gnaws, SMILE!“
Any specific names of gangs with which MS-13 contends, stevie? I'm drawing something of a blank in cursory online searches.
Your inability to pick up the pejorative quality of the term “mercantilism” indicates that you really, really, don't hate Republicans enough. In one of the “freebie” (do anything you want) speeches I was required to present in undergraduate Rhetoric, the title of my presentation was “The Republican Party as a Criminal Conspiracy.” And that was just when I was getting started in the study of those thieving sonsofbitches. I'd have to say that the very last decent thing those mamzerein ever did was the 14th Amendment. After that… Hoo, boy.
Not being a collectivist, I'm not much concerned with what most of the “birthers” have written. A few seem relatively lucid, but I'm not a conservative (in the modern sense) any more than I'm a “Liberal” (in the “milk-and-water socialist” sense). I don't despise Barry Soetoro because he's a Muslim faking Christianity – almost a dead certainty, given what's available even through his own ghostwritten autobiographical bumfodder – because I consider all organized religions pernicious fraudulences. Some – like Islam – are just more viciously malignant than others.
Though I'll admit that if he were Baha'i or Jain or Buddhist I might find some comfort in his professed ghostly adherence. Islam is so explicitly, ineluctably, absolutely vicious….
Whatever the motives of the non-individualist “birthers” – xenophobia, racism, religious fervor, what have you – my reasons for despising Barry Soetoro are purely political, and should be completely familiar to you by now. As I've said, he could be female, Norwegian, blue-eyed, blond-pated, and a dedicated Lutheran, and were that person the kind of Alinsky-tainted, ACORN-boosted, third-generation socialist, Cloward-Piven strategy-employing, Annenberg Foundation, criminally fraudulent (in dozens of way beyond his unsupported claims to qualification to have entered his name in any of the National Socialist Party presidential primaries last year), Chicago machine thug “poverty pimp,” I would afford that entity no respect whatsoever, and I would do whatever is expedient and within the bounds of the constraints imposed by the non-aggression principle to bring that critter down hard.
Jeez, stevie, you wouldn't?
Now, on your “Democracy has many risks” paragraph, let's look at the proper role of civil government – which is never defined as anything other than “goons with guns,” that agency in our society charged with an effective monopoly on the employment of lethal force in anything other than the sorts of proximally defensive roles in which a law-abiding private citizen finds himself in instances of violent assault or home invasion – would you care to outline your personal view of the role such a “goons with guns” agency lawfully plays in the civil and economic life of the people of these United States under the Constitution, counselor?
And socialism is not “total ownership,” stevie. In the “mixed economy,” there is socialism tainting and debilitating the functions of the free market – capitalism – so that it works less responsively, less effectively, less productively, less justly than it does when the officers of civil government (or “goons with guns”) aren't “picking winners” to gain outcomes politically rather than economically –
(( by which is meant under compulsion, at gunpoint, instead of voluntarily, through persuasion and willing – though admittedly often grudging – co-operation ))
- to violate the rights of the people participating in that division-of-labor economy for which purpose they came out of the Enlightenment philosophers' “state of nature” and into human society in the first place.
What “greases the wheels” of human society is the codification and respect for the only real inalienable rights human beings have ever had, or ever will had. The negative rights to life, to liberty, and to property.
Socialism – whether in an absolute Bolshevik death camp totalitarian horror or in a “mixed economy” dreadfulness such as one sees in Great Britain and France and Germany and America today – does violence to those rights, to a degree greater or lesser, but always doing that violence, and giving rise to the divisive “factionalism” the Founders explicitly dreaded and warned against, where political “grab” becomes more important than economic “build” and thievery becomes institutionalized as the pervasive poison attacking fellow-feeling and social justice throughout our polity.
And maybe I will get some sleep. I recommend to you Hazlitt's Economics in One Lesson and perhaps a bit of Frederic Bastiat while you're at it. His stuff was written to be brief and easily appreciable. He was dying of tuberculosis as he composed it, and knew he needed to work quickly if he were to get the necessary stuff on paper.
Back atcha, counselor.

It should be added that “Obama’s top terrorism and intelligence adviser, John O. Brennan, heads a firm that was cited in March for breaching sensitive files in the State Department’s passport office, according to a State Department Inspector General’s report released this past July.
“The security breach, first reported by the Washington Times and later confirmed by State Department spokesman Sean McCormack, involved a contract employee of Brennan’s firm, The Analysis Corp., which has earned millions of dollars providing intelligence-related consulting services to federal agencies and private companies.
“Sources who tracked the investigation tell Newsmax that the main target of the breach was the Obama passport file, and that the contractor accessed the file in order to ‘cauterize’ the records of potentially embarrassing information.
“ ‘They looked at the McCain and Clinton files as well to create confusion,’ one knowledgeable source told Newsmax. ‘But this was basically an attempt to cauterize the Obama file.
“At the time of the breach, Brennan was working as an unpaid adviser to the Obama campaign.”
“The passport files include ‘personally identifiable information such as the applicant’s name, gender, social security number, date and place of birth, and passport number,’ according to the inspector general report.
“The files may contain additional information including ‘original copies of the associated documents,’ the report added. Such documents include birth certificates, naturalization certificates, or oaths of allegiance for U.S.-born persons who adopted the citizenship of a foreign country as minors.”

My exposure to Epstein's lectures had initially been on tape (cassettes). Yeah, I'm that old. Great stuff driving to and from the hospitals and the nursing homes and on house calls.
And “square” or not, think of Epstein going in his usual mile-a-minute pace – which he does even during Q-and-A – and stodgy, stuporous, brain-damaged (literally) Hairplug Joe trying to keep up with him. Gawd, have you no sense of humor at all, stevie?
The granddaughters do all the watercolor painting in my household (“Looka, Grandpop! A cow!” – I think she's in her “green period,” but it kinda looks like a cow…with six legs).
And that eminent domain is exercised for “economic development” (Kelo v. New London abominations) rather than for the sorts of public use takings discussed by Epstein (1985), there is the aggressive use of coercion – political power – in inexcusable violation of individual rights, where persuasion by way of market mechanisms is the only truly moral mode of conducting such affairs in a republic such as ours.

Nah. “Usurper” is a derogatory term used to designate an individual who is claiming or has established himself in the post of chief of state without lawful qualification to do so.
If Barry Soetoro is not lawfully qualified by “native born” citizen status to have entered his name in any of the National Socialist Party primaries conducted in 2008 (which is the point of contention he has squirmingly, sweatingly, suspiciously evaded for more than a year when he could've whacked it down in a res judicata fashion by putting that mysteriously unavailable 2007 COLB into the hands of impartial, qualified, experienced forensic documents examiners to get an attestation as to its “genuineness or non-genuineness”), then he's an usurper.
Might as well call it as the dictionary does.
“Usurpation: A wrongful seizure or exercise of authority or privilege belonging to another; an encroachment:”
Meaning The Woman With One Eyebrow (shudder!) almost certainly should've won the National Socialist Party's nomination last year, and – gag! retch! – Crash Test Johnnie, our Keating Five alumnus, might be President right now.
I suspect that the reason why Bubba's Bitch is now Secretary of State is that Barry knew it was better to have her in the tent and pissing out than ouside the tent and pissing in.
He may be a lying sonofabitch, but – regrettably – he's not stupid.

All the rubbish you spilled about what used to be the law applicable to a baby whose birth was not registered a year later has ZERO to do with Obama. His birth was registered four days after he was born.

The problem is that the Chinese president was actually born in CHINA. He WAS NOT born in Hawaii.
How's that COLB work again?
Most birth certificates have the new born's foot print. The reason is to prevent future fraud by someone claiming to be the new born. I hope Hawaii had such a procedure for it's actual birth certificates. Hopefully, we can compare Obama's footprints to the real birth certificate.

State law prevents release of the original vital records, which are now maintained electronically. That’s one reason you can’t see it.
The other reason is because you don’t need to. The COLB is prima facie evidence of the facts surrounding birth. Says so right on the document.
No secret from Obama – he posted the birth certificate online a year ago. NO other Presidential candidate or President has ever done so.
You keep writing that Obama is “British born” which belies your cluelessness. NO ONE contends he is British born. He was born in Hawaii, for those of us boring folks who trade in reality.
Even under the most fanciful theory, he was born in Kenya. Even if he was a dual citizen as a youth, that says nothing about his citizenship at the age of majority.
But you go on posting silly questions at the end of mini-threads, revealing that you have no understanding of what was discussed therein. It just makes it easier for me to mock you without having to feel bad for doing so.
Comment posted July 28, 2009 @ 7:53 pm
Why does his father’s citizenship need to be examined? No one in the world disputes that Obama’s father was not a U.S. citizen. Beyond that any inquiry about his father’s nationality is a red herring.
But please please don’t give up. Write letters to GOP representatives and elected officials. Show up in person. Bring a TV camera crew. Never mind what Bill O’Reilly and Ann Coulter say about you. You’re not chasing a “bogus,” “absurd” story that was “disproven conclusively by the Factor a year ago.” Nor are you “merely one of a handful of crazies, like the 3 remaining Klanners in America.” Fight that good fight.

I think you’re making too much of Kelo.
Taking private property for a public purpose is and has been lawful for hundreds of years.
Kelo doesn’t change that.
Public purpose just needs a fair interpretation.
We ran into this on the committee I told you about.
There are two malls in town. One is old, one is new. The old one has way too much parking space, all on a single level that covers acres of ground. The City wanted to condemn the parking lot and allow private developers to put the space to a more economically-productive use. Doing so would generate sales for the private owner, and thus sales taxes for the City.
Those sales taxes are then to be used to revitalize Downtown, put in sewer and infrastructure at the outskirts of the City’s southern end, and generally repay the initial outlay spent by the City.
People bitch and moan about that, as it is superficially taking land from one private person, at a price, and selling it to another private person.
But the Constitution does not forbid it. It just says there has to be a public purpose for the taking.
Here, as in Kelo, there is. Pretty simple. To me and to other real estate attorneys, that is.
Of course, if I represented the private plaintiff in an eminent domain suit, I’d hop up and down about unfairness, much like you do. I’d just be doing so to maximize the settlement to be extracted from the government for the taking; I’d suffer no illusion about the supposed illegality of the taking.
I can only imagine how eager you are to point out the many ways I’m wrong here. Have at it, test-taker doc.
(I have to confess that I find it harder to get angry at you than I did before. Probably a combination of the utter oafishness of randypuppy compared to you, as well as the familiarity I now have with your once-provocative slurs.)
Comment posted July 28, 2009 @ 8:21 pm
Gasp! A backhanded compliment, but a compliment nonetheless. So President Obama isn’t stupid.
Neither am I. I consulted my copy of Black’s Law Dictionary (6th Ed.) and found the following:
“Usurper of a public office: One who either intrudes into a vacant office or ousts the incumbent without any color of title. Neal v. Parker, 200 Ark. 10, 139 S.W.2d 41, 44. One who intrudes on office and assumes to exercise its functions without legal title or color of right thereto. Alleger v. School Dist. 16, Newton County Mo. App. 142 S.W.2d 660, 663.”
So, what was that you were saying about consulting a dictionary? You did mean a LEGAL dictionary, didn’t you? Since usurper is a legal term of art, we really should be reading an authortitative source. Where’d you get your information? Conspiracy Theorist Quarterly Review?
This is more fun than calling you out for being wrong about things that matter….

There’s something about the absurdity of what he posts that makes you want to hear more of it. Preferably at a noisy bar. But I think it’s that one gets the sense that he doesn’t mean hardly any of it, and instead just wants to be provocative.

I just found something interesting. Check out The Obama File:
http://www.theobamafile.com/ObamaCOLB.htm
and click on the “real” birth certificate” the birther is using for “proof.” (http://www.theobamafile.com/_images/HawaiinBirt…) Notice what it says at the top of it? Certificate of Live Birth! It is obviously an older document, not one would, say, ask for in 2008 to prove they were born in Hawaii. But it doesn't say “birth certificate” on it either! Maybe because Hawaii doesn't HAVE a document called a “birth certificate”? Also considering that Hawaii went paperless and does everything electronically in 2009?
I love how birthers try to prove things and end up looking even more stupid than when they began!

The Obots are out in full force to stop free speech and avoid an examination of actual documents and legal facts.
On the contrary, we are out here to correct the free speech mistakes by some. I understand why you may be upset by that.
The legal facts are simple: Obama is a natural born citizen since he was born on US soil. Furthermore the only way to have Obama removed is through impeachment or elections in 2012.

Yes, the campaign has a lot of legal expenses. Your pount?
While some may say its for non-BC related stuff. That's a lot of money compare to other items in the list.
In other words, you have no evidence.

Despite the fact that Ron Paul is an OB/GYN (and therefore on the opposite side of that Great Divide in hospital medical staff meetings where the surgeons all cluster on one side of the room and us physicians sit on t'other), he was the only candidate of either faction in the big, bipartisan Boot-On-Your-Neck Party sweepstakes who'd ever read von Mises' Human Action or advocated anything remotely resembling constitutional government under strict and responsible rule of law.
So, yeah, I supported him. Still do. Wouldn't you like to see The Creature From Jeckyll Island audited so as to put the thieving, bastardly banksters put under the figurative microscope, jimmy?
Hm. A “previous POTUS” who'd pissed me off the least…. Gotta be Grover Cleveland, the “Bourbon Democrat” who rescued this nation from the Republicans and their first “Peacetime Billion Dollar Congress,” saving America from the consequences of Senator McKinley's murderous “protective” tariffs and the Sherman Silver Purchase Act's gadarene – for that time – currency debauchment, the combined effect of which had been to reduce U.S. Treasury bonds to “junk bond” status on the world's finanial markets. Ever read about the “Silver Panic” of 1893, jim? That was the Republicans' doing, start to finish.
Aw, and how could I “run out of insults,” jimmie? You galloping, golliwog, goofus Obamaphiles are such a source of inspiration….
What, you're so illiterate in praxeology as to fail in identifying John Maynard Keynes as the guiding Satanic influence behind all this bankster inflationist bullshit your Mombasa Mahdi has been ramming up the nation's cloaca since he slimed unlawfully into office (TWO counts of fraudulence in just his half-witted taking of the inaugural oath, jimmie! ain't that exceptional?)…?

The switch from “not born in the US” to “born to a British Citizen” was predictable, the never ending moving of goalposts is typical however also much harder to defend as there is ample support that native born and natural born are virtually equivalent terms and that a natural born birthright cannot be lost due to the actions or status of the parents.
Comment posted July 28, 2009 @ 4:58 pm
One could not just say “My kid was born in Des Moines but I want him to have a Hawaiian birth record”. But if you lied no investigation was conducted to validate your claim and the Hawaiian birth record was issued no questions asked.
It's an interesting option but again, the facts show otherwise. Furthermore, such a BC would show a filing date of more than 1 year after birth. Obama's shows 4 days after birth.
Too bad how the facts do not support your fiction?
Does that not cause you a little concern?

The COLB ( “Certification” of Live Birth) are so easy to obtain that the president of China has a Hawaii COLB also.
That's of course incorrect, he had a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth not a COLB. Why is it so hard to get the facts correct? You have the tools and yet…

Does the AKA Obama birth certificate on file with the State of Hawaii have language similar to the birth certificate of SunYat-sen?
Nope because Obama's COLB was filed 4 days after birth. Sun Yat Sen's “birth certificate” was a certificate of Hawaiian birth that was granted at least one year after birth.

President Obama was born on Aug. 4, 1961 and the paperwork was filed on Aug. 8, 1961. His COLB has a number ending with 10641.
The Nordyke twins were born on Aug. 5, 1961 in Honolulu, HI. The birth was registered on Aug. 11, 1961 and their “Certificate of Live Birth” has the numbers ending with 10637 and 10638.
More and more data supports the fact that Obama was indeed born in Hawaii
The Hawai'i certificate of live birth that Obama displays on his Web site shows he was born at 7:24 p.m. on Aug. 4.
Nordyke was well into labor by then with girls who were three weeks premature. By 2 p.m. the following day, Susan was born at 5 pounds, 12 ounces, and Gretchen weighed in at 6 pounds, 4 ounces.

Was it not you who claimed that Act 96 would allow anyone to file for BC in Hawaii and I had to point out that you were wrong. Present your evidence my dear friend since I do not rely on assertions.
ACT 96 describes Certificates of Hawaiian Birth
a. If the birth was attended by a physician or mid wife, the attending medical professional was required to certify to the Department of Health the facts of the birth date, location, parents’ identities and other information. (See Section 57-8 & 9 of the Territorial Public Health Statistics Act in the 1955 Revised Laws of Hawaii which was in effect in 1961).
Or full requirements
1. In the State of Hawaii, back in 1961, there were three different birth certificates that were obtainable:
a. If the birth was attended by a physician or mid wife, the attending medical professional was required to certify to the Department of Health the facts of the birth date, location, parents’ identities and other information. (See Section 57-8 & 9 of the Territorial Public Health Statistics Act in the 1955 Revised Laws of Hawaii which was in effect in 1961).
b. In 1961, if a person was born in Hawaii but not attended by a physician or mid wife, then, up to the first birthday of the child, an adult could, upon testimony, file a “Delayed Certificate”, which required endorsement on the Delayed Certificate of a summary statement of the evidence submitted in support of the acceptance for delayed filing, which evidence must be kept in a special permanent file. The statute provided that the probative value of the Delayed Certificate must be determined by the judicial or administrative body or official before whom the certificate is offered as evidence. (See Section 57-18, 19 & 20 of the Territorial Public Health Statistics Act in the 1955 Revised Laws of Hawaii which was in effect in 1961).
c. If a child born in Hawaii, for whom no physician or mid wife filed a certificate of live birth, and for whom no Delayed Certificate was filed before the first birthday, then a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth could be issued upon testimony of an adult including the subject person) if the Lieutenant Governor was satisfied that a person was born in Hawaii, provided that the person had attained the age of one year. (See Section 57-40 of the Territorial Public Health Statistics Act in the 1955 Revised Laws of Hawaii which was in effect in 1961).
2. In 1982, the vital records law was amended to create a fourth kind of birth certificate for children born outside of the Territory or State of Hawaii. HRS Chapter 338 was amended to add a new section authorizing the Director of the Department of Health to issue a birth certificate for a person NOT born in Hawaii either as a Territory or State, upon sufficient proof that the legal parents of such individual had declared the Territory or State of Hawaii as their legal residence for at least one year immediately preceding the birth of such child.
One year requirement is clear…

Yes, hon, but you see, Stanley Ann Dunham was a US citizen, so in 1961 it didn't matter WHERE she gave birth to her child! I was merely explaining the “Late Registration” and why some birthers are bringing it up. It bears no consequence whatsoever to this matter. It was merely put on the books for Hawaiians who were born prior to statehood. I'm sorry for your mental disability, I'll try to explain better next time.

The people who continue to post in favor of birther conspiracies (as opposed to people like Tuci, who simply post a screed against all things the government ever does) really need to have their heads examined. It's like a whole group of people who always got picked last for sports teams in P.E. class.
A documentary about the birthers would spent 1 minute showing his birth certificate on screen and 59 minutes of “Crazy Eileen” (the ziplock bag lady, as she is known in her hometown) and people like her. It would be a 1 hour admonishment against Reagan for closing the mental hospitals and putting nuts on the street with no help.
So it would be called “Trickle Down Intelligence: Seventy People Search for Legitimacy”

The point nbc1 is making in the post you respond to is actually an affirmation of what you wrote, not a contradiction. nbc1 is pointing out that, as Obama's birth certificate was filed within 4 days of his birth, he obviously would not, under any scenario, be subject to a law (no longer applicable at all) that only ever applied to persons who were at least a year old whose birth had not previously been registered.
nbc1 is shooting down the argument, assuming it to be true. You are shooting down the argument because it is not true.

The cockroach in the Kelo v.

Were those homes condemned to make way for a bridge or a road or a courthouse, the action would’ve been hateful – just “average” hateful, such as “has been lawful for hundreds of years” in these United States.
But that was not the case, was it? It was politically connected “fat cats” getting a municipal government to rape the property rights of smallholders under the premise that the fat cats would provide the municipality with higher tax revenues than those inoffensive private citizens could possibly manage.
Little stevie, you want to talk about “the Malevolent Jobholder” LITERALLY and explicitly jumping into the cash-lined pocket of the Big Business types you “Liberals” are supposed to hate so much, and from which you claim you’re defending us average folks?

So, you were wrong in each instance, just for a different reason than you’re wrong here.
Whether you claim Obama was “British born” or a “British citizen” (that’s British subject for you sticklers), you’re as wrong as fat people wearing spandex.
President Obama was born in Hawaii. You concede that and yet try to argue that he’s nonetheless not a natural born U.S. citizen. You provide no links to any evidence and you try to quibble with the direct words of the U.S. Supreme Court on point from the Wong Kim Ark case, provided to you by nbc1.

The myth that Barack Obama is ineligible to be president represents the hunt for a magic bullet that will make all the unpleasant complications of his election and presidency disappear. We are used to seeing conspiracy theories from the Left, for instance among the one in three Democrats who believe that 9/11 was an inside job conducted with the foreknowledge of the Bush administration.
The article continues to debunk some common myths.

The idea of YOU calling someone else naive, when you don’t understand that anyone born on U.S. soil is natural born, is hilarious.
Where were you people when I was spending money left and right to entertain myself? You could have saved me untold sums in bar tabs.

Wow, I had no idea that one in 3 Democrats believes 9/11 was an inside job.
The only way that makes sense is if the editors of National Review only know 3 Democrats. But, gee, that couldn't be it, could it?

Ha! Are you the originator of the “Kenyans win every race” line, kb? Either way, it’s hilarious and I’m going to attribute you.
Yes, the entire argument is silly. But it distracts our less-gifted colleagues from walking into power lines or scrubbing themselves with poison oak. Plus it ensures that no rational person will vote with the Republican base in 2010.
Also, it gives me something to do with my free time. And I got to meet all of you other paid Obama bloggers. Did you see that naturalborn thinks that Obama sent “the best” from his fightthesmears.com website to come over here and silence the free speech of birthers? I feel like I should get a costume, at the very least.

You know, I hate to say it, but if Tuci78 and frank were both overboard and I had two life preservers close at hand…
I'd try my best to get the Captain to hit frank with the propellers. Then I'd break one of the life preservers. By this time Tuci would see that I meant business, and I'd save his grateful soggy water-logged rotting husk as deliberately and disdainfully as I could.
Tuci78 is a paranoid long-winded self-satisfied gasbag of a nutter, but he's OURS, damnit. Americans get to bitch about America. It's in the Constipation somewhere. Somewhere in the back, where it also says you can conceal an assault weapon in the small of your back and take it into a playground or a bar or a church all on the same day.

You seem like an intelligent soul so I would recommend you read the British Nationality Act (BNA) of 1948 and the first US Nationality Act of 1790. It will help you understand why Obama can NEVER be a “NATURAL BORN” citizen. NEVER!!
After you read the above documents, if you still don't understand why Obama is British and a British born citizen, I'm sorry but I can't help you.
If you vote, please don't do it again. Our country deserves much better.

He was born under the British Nationality Act of 1948 which his father was subject too living in Kenya.
He follows his fathers citizenship by law.

Forgot to put up a link for you, stevie. The Foundation for Economic Education has a full edition of Economics in One Lesson avaialble in PDF at:

And the link to LexisNexis is law.lexisnexis.com where you’ll find something of what they’ve been doing as a research database for lawyers over the past several decades.
Bastiat…. Hm. You’re a lawyer. How about we start with The Law (1850)?

“But how is this legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime.”
Well, so much for eminent domain and Kelo v. New London, counselor. From the same source:
“No legal plunder: This is the principle of justice, peace, order, stability, harmony, and logic. Until the day of my death, I shall proclaim this principle with all the force of my lungs (which alas! is all too inadequate).“

HIs “birth right citizenship” is British, his father's citizenship by the rules of Natural law.
This is what happens when no one investigates a man whose father was from Kenya and never immigrated to the US or became a US citizen.
At least, Chester Arthur's father received his US citizenship, even if late.

Natural born,
The British Nationality ACT has nothing to do with a person born in the US as it relates to UNITED STATES laws, at all. You aren't born on US soil and considered to have “dual loyalites”. That is absurd. How could he be British born? He was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, a state in the USA. Doesn't that mean anything to you?
His birth, his father's circumstances have never been secret. They have been public knowledge since he wrote his first book, Dreams of My Father. Where do you get off thinking you understand immigration law than all the State Dept. officials, lawyers, politicians etc. who are all aware of this, better than they do?
Comment posted July 28, 2009 @ 10:27 pm
His father was African, that is what he answered, cause that is what he was. He was NOT negro. He was proud and educated, not a victim of America's mentality in regards to race.

Natural Born, the consitution doesn't define 'natural born citizen'. It simply doesn't say that that is exactly. It has been given definition by subsquent laws, including the basic one that says, if you are born in the US, on its soil, you are in fact NATURAL BORN. How silly to think US laws in regards to such matter take a second to British laws or to think that somehow a baby who's never been near the UK or Kenya, but raised by his family in the US, somehow has 'dual loyalities'. You're logic, you're understanding of the law, your insistence on refusing basic rights to a human being born in the US is astounding. You are in fact defying the spirit of this country, the consitution and the the law.

FACTS are something you are sorely lacking in. Seriously dude, you need to get a clue. I already gave you a quarter, but instead of a clue you spent it on more birther koolaid.
Seriously reallllly go look up the laws regarding who was a British subject and who wasn't and STOP listening to the really lunatic fringe, of which sadly you come across as being a charter member of.
The State of Hawaii AGAIN, TODAY, stated they have rechecked the Birth Certificate and it clearly states Obama was BORN IN HAWAII. You are an AMERICAN CITIZEN IF YOU ARE BORN IN AMERICA NO MATTER WHAT YOUR PARENTS ARE.
Stop with the idiocy of anyone could get a COLB. They COULD NOT. You had to be born in Hawaii and had up to a year to go in and claim you were born in HAWAII, but you could not come in from another country and get a COLB.
DO try to read.
As for history, that is also a subject you are sorely lacking in. EVEN if he had been born out of country the fact that his mother was an American citizen is all it takes for him to be an American citizen.

No. Hawaii would allow the father to list whatever he wanted to list. Which he did. Being from Africa, and not an American, he would have no reason to list “Negro.”
I'm glad that you gave away your ENTIRE argument about Britain by writing “I thought Hawaii was an American state.” See, that's the whole game right there. Obama was born in America. In Hawaii. Thus Obama is natural born. Both his parents could be confirmed KGB spies from Turkmenistan. He's still eligible to be President.
Obama was not born a British citizen. British law means zip diddly squat when you're born in Hawaii. Obama was born a natural-born U.S. citizen. Under your tortured reasoning, he would have had dual citizenship, until the age of majority, when he clearly elected to retain the U.S. citizenship (by not renouncing it, as he would have had to do by then to lose it).
You're right. It does not matter. President Obama is President. He will continue to be President. Your side will continue to have the burden of proving otherwise. Your side lacks any admissible evidence whatsoever. Your side also lacks an articulate spokesperson. All you have are irrational goobers like yourself who keep parroting something they heard on a talk radio show despite many, many chances to learn the actual truth.
So that's why you get clowned when you repeat nonsense. Thanks for giving away the game in the midst of your own argument!

Please stop referring us to a 200 year old law that you keep misconstruing.
I understand that native and natural are different words. Same Constitutional meaning.
There are only two classes of U.S. citizenship. Native born and naturalized. Naturalized means you took a test and passed it. Native born does not necessarily mean you were born in the U.S., though it can mean that. It instead means you were a U.S. citizen at birth, either by the fact of birth here or by the fact of being born abroad to at least one U.S. citizen parent.
I notice you never provide any links. Hysteria, caps lock, and extra exclamation points are not nearly as persuasive as you think they are.
Get a grip. Thanks a million.

So then, naturalborn, under your theory, why would anyone need to look at Obama's birth certificate at ALL?
The way you understand the situation, the man is clearly not eligible to be President, based on the open fact that his father was an alien (not a citizen).
So how do you explain the fact that YOU and you alone are the only one who sees this? Why does every other birther believe the birth certificate decides his citizenship? Why does every non-birther laugh, even at birthers, to say nothing of at you?
Here's a hint…. It's either that you're a brilliant genius who read the Constitution and no one else ever bothered to… or you're totally missing a very obvious foundational point of U.S. law.

Jeez, stevie, but you really don't know any doctors well enough even to engage them in unguarded conversation, do you? Don'tcha know that doctors – sometimes even surgeons – are almost all obsessive trivia types?
Comes with the “deductive logic” territory. Ever read anything by Arthur Conan Doyle? Especially the Sherlock Holmes stories? He modeled that character on one of his professors in med school. Deductive logic is how diagnosis is undertaken, and it requires that one know a helluva lot, much of it seemingly unrelated and trivial.
You want a story? When I was in training, the Oncology guys got a female patient with mesothelioma on biopsy. She had been born, grown up, and lived in Britain, moved to the U.S.A. after World War II, and they got no history of asbestos exposure out of her. I was curious about her case so I sat down with her for a bit and asked her about how things had been in Britain during the war.
Turns out she'd worked in an armaments plant, making barrels for anti-tank guns.
“17-pounders?” I asked?
“Yeah.”
“Okay.”
Trivia. I knew that asbestos fiber had been used in the manufacture those AT gun barrels, which were special “hot” (high-velocity) 76.2mm weapons that the Brits mounted on wheeled carriages, on motor gun carriages, and on their “Firefly” modifications of the U.S. M-4 (Sherman) tank.
Etiology of the patient's mesothelioma determined.
And you expect a guy who makes a living by learning, accessing, and making use of trivia not to offer a correction when one seems warranted?

Comment posted July 29, 2009 @ 12:27 am
Quite the contary, dear boy, I invited the correction and was counting on it.
I do enjoy Sherlock Holmes. That's why I quibbled with your quotation re: the dog that did not bark.
I bought the complete paperback collection of Sherlock Holmes about 15 years ago from a book club and they sat on my shelf unread until a couple months ago. So I got pretty into them. I was enjoying it. Then I started to notice racism. The people from India are coolies. Low-level 19th-C British stuff. Okay, fine. I'll deal with it.
But then I get to a story about a black guy. From The Case Book of Sherlock Holmes, the story is called “The Adventure of the Three Gables.” At page 100 of the book (page 1 of the story), we are treated to this exchange:
“The door had flown open and a huge negro had burst into the room. He would have been a comic figure if he had not been terrific, for he was dressed in a very loud grey check suit with a flowing salmon-coloured tie. His broad face and flattened nose were thrust forward, as his sullen dark eyes, with a smouldering gleam of malice in them, turned from one of us to another.”
Now, this stereotypical description (big guy, dressed loudly, big ol' negroid face, can't keep the evil in his eyes in check, that sort of thing), and the use of cheery violent slurs such as “I am glad you were not forced to break his woolly head, Watson…” (p. 102) doesn't rise to the level of complain-about-it racism. This is just the sort of thing you'd expect to read about in turn of the century Britain. And certainly as to A.C. Doyle in particular, this is the typical way he described people other than whites — savages, coolies, mulattoes, etc.
All that stuff doesn't faze me.
But, you know I'm going somewhere with this… At page 101, we come upon this stunner:
“That's my name, Masser Holmes, and you'll get put through it for sure if you give me any lip.” “'It is certainly the last thing you need,' said Holmes, staring at our visitor's hideous mouth.” (emphasis mine).
Yeah. That's what he said. So now I have to give up on Sir Arthur Bedford Forrest I mean Conan Doyle, even though up to this point I was tolerating the racism in his books. Heretofore it was just the OTHER characters in the book who said things like “nigger.” Holmes had plausible deniability; I was thinking that those characters, rough and uneducated or evil and scheming or working for the police force, were saying such things to convey to the reader that they're bad or low-status people. I figured Holmes and Watson would just dryly observe them without themselves taking notice, and certainly without contributing to it.
I was reading this in my local park when I passed that line about his lips. It was like I was the caveman in the GEICO commercial, man! Not good.
And you know what the kicker is? The “huge Negro” is named: (wait for it) Steve. His nickname? Black Steve.
Yeah, like I said, Caveman. GEICO.
Oh, and I have an asbestos story for you, as well.
Years ago I was an associate on a file representing a sheet-metal installer in a lawsuit filed by the widow of a man who worked installing asbestos in homes. He died of mesothelioma and the wife was suing for damages.
One of her claims was loss of consortium. Simply put, that's a claim for the loss she suffered as a result of not being able to have as much sex, or as good of it, as she had before.
The deposition of the widow plaintiff was uneventful. 20 lawyers sitting around a conference table, 18 of whom are paying bills. One of whom is questioning the widow. And the widow's lawyer is listening intently.
The widow is about 50. Dead guy was in his 70's. So we get to my turn.
I ask some foundational questions, then try to get at the precise damages for the loss of consortium. She says something about how, after the effects of the asbestos, she and her husband were “only” having sex twice a week. Mind you, he was in his 70's during the period under discussion.
Everyone looks up. Stifling a grin, I ask “how often did you have sex before the mesothelioma prevented you from adhering to your usual routine?” She shoots back “at least once a day.”
Another lawyer called for a break. I kid you not, I saw at least five of them on the phone to their wives during the break, bitching about how this 70 year old is getting it every fucking day. You just know there was some grudge-fucking going on when those folks got home!
True story. It was the first time I ever looked forward to growing old!
If you call me “Black Steve,” there goes all pretense of amicability, Doc!

You must be the one who’s joking. You didn’t answer me ANY of the times I asked you to cite evidence.
Nor did you answer when I asked you why, if you are right, anyone would care what the birth certificate says.
Under your interpretation, Obama is ineligible because of his father’s nationality. Nothing on the birth certificate could possibly affect that.
Under your interpretation, Obama’s ineligibility is fundamental Constitutional law. Yet NO ONE raised this issue of Obama’s being somehow ineligible because of his father’s nationality, not even once, during the entire 2 year Presidential campaign cycle. No one is saying so now.
All anyone is saying is one of two things – 1 – he’s President, shut up and let’s get on with real business, or 2 – I need to see the original birth certificate.
So if your theory was at all correct, you’d be the only one espousing it. Get yourself over to Fox News NOW. Hurry.
Because if you stop to think about it, or ask anyone about it, you may find out that you’re just totally nucking futs.
But by all means, don’t give up just because you’re totally in over your head. It didn’t stop Sarah Palin. Shouldn’t stop you.

One of the considerations not discussed here is that if Stanley Ann Dunham – a U.S. citizen – had been delivered of the child she named “Barack Hussein Obama II” in Mombasa's Coast Provincial General Hospital rather than whatever hospital in Honolulu Barry Soetoro is claiming this week that he'd been born in, she was not of age in 1961 to confer upon her get American citizenship, “natural born” or not.
I'm certain that stevie, a legal professional with access to Lexis/Nexis, will be able to pull up the federal statutes and regulations prevailing in 1961, and should confirm this.

CQ Politics: Somehow, the House got [158] Republicans — Including Nearly All Members of the Leadership — to vote for a resolution last night that declares President Obama was born in Hawaii. But it appears that the resolution wasn’t intentionally aimed at the fringe movement plaguing the Republican Party these days: the people who insist Obama isn’t actually a citizen of the United States.
Instead, aides to Democratic Rep. Neil Abercrombie of Hawaii — the sponsor of the resolution — say the impact on the “birther” movement was just an amusing sideshow to a resolution that was just supposed to be a simple celebration of the 50th anniversary of Hawaii’s statehood.
“When we realized that it might stir them up, we just kind of smiled,” said Abercrombie spokesman Dave Helfert.
The resolution, adopted last night on a vote of 378-0, notes that “the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama, was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961.” To Abercrombie, who was friends with Obama’s father and knew the president when he was a toddler, any resolution celebrating Hawaii’s anniversary would naturally mention Obama because “it is a matter of great pride in Hawaii that Barack Obama is a native son,” Helfert said.

No. This is what happens when Republicans slash funding for public education and simultaneously relax standards for environmental quality while eliminating rules that prevent people from owning homes directly adjacent to power plants.
Because that leads to a whole group of seriouly undereducated and easily-confused-or-misled people. You among them.

HOURS AGO, and about a dozen of your posts ago, nbc1 gave you all the factual and legal information about how one gains natural-born citizenship status.
You chose to ignore the facts and binding law, in favor of merely posting the same brave, idiotic nonsense about an irrelevant British law. You somehow believe, as you contended, that Obama could have been born in the White House and still wouldn’t be a natural-born citizen.
So it’s not that we “just” insult people. We tried to be polite and presented you binding Supreme Court precedent.
This is a “teachable moment.” Meaning you need to learn something before you keep posting here.
Which is that if you persist in saying stupid things without evidence, in the face of rational things with associated evidence being written to you in response, then you are highly likely to be mocked and derided. As you should be, for continuing to beat a dead horse that you should have realized is a broken shopping cart.

Wait, testy-test-taker, I thought you doubted whether I was a barrister? How'm I supposed to have access to “Lexis/Nexis” whatever that is?
I will concede, for purposes of argument, that if Obama was born outside the U.S., his mother would have had to sue to get citizenship for him, under my understanding of the law then in existence. Because she, at 18, had not spent 5 years in the U.S. beyond her 14th birthday (not having been alive that long), she would not have been able to confer natural-born citizenship status to him.
I will also concede that if Obama had been born an ice cream sandwich instead of a human baby, he would be ineligible to lead the country. We tried that in 2000 and again in 2004.
Neither concession means anything in reality.
Luckily for me, the actual facts are that Obama was born in Hawaii and is natural-born.
But this should be enough to keep the good Doctor going for another week or so. The rest of you can thank me later.
nbc1 is really the one you should have addressed this issue to; I seem to recall reading the source material as posted by him.

When Barack Hussein Obama places his hand on the Bible today to take the oath of office as 44th president of the United States, Barbara Nelson of Kenmore will undoubtedly think back to the day he was born. It was Aug. 4, 1961, at Kapi’olani Medical Center for Women & Children in Honolulu.
“I may be the only person left who specifically remembers his birth. His parents are gone, his grandmother is gone, the obstetrician who delivered him is gone,” said Nelson, referring to Dr. Rodney T. West, who died in February at the age of 98. Here’s the story: Nelson was having dinner at the Outrigger Canoe Club on Waikiki Beach with Dr. West, the father of her college friend, Jo-Anne. Making conversation, Nelson turned to Dr. West and said: “‘So, tell me something interesting that happened this week,’” she recalls.

A bitch? Oh, no. Stereotypes are a great efficiency mechanism. Can't do without them, really. Stereotyping enables quick recognition of threats and opportunities in the environment, and the degree to which discriminate and effective stereotyping takes place reliably correlates with the ascending levels of mental function in living creatures from the protozoa on up.
Ah, but you're a “Liberal,” right outhouse? And to you goofballs, “stereotype” is some kind of politically incorrect dirty word. Tsk. You ever get tired of these crippling limitations under which you're forced to labor by virtue of your peculiar statist stupidity?
As for Sera et Tocco et alia, outie, were you aware that I'm entirely Sicilian by ethnic derivation?
And the expression for which you're groping is la mano nero (“the black hand”).
Yeah, “mano” takes the feminine article. I still have trouble keeping that in mind, and I keep wanting to put “nera” after it in agreement with the article.
I believe that “neura” has something to do with “nerve,” and in Italian, “a” is more or less equivalent to the English word “to.”
Oh. Did I just do a spelling snerk? Sorry!

Great catch, Florida B…
Hey, test-taker aka Doctor Feelbad, I think it's time to yank the IV out of your conspiracy theory's arm.
Barbara Nelson, the woman who specifically remembers President Obama's birth, beats any number of Mrs. Nordykes.
The article goes on to say, immediately after the portion Florida B quoted:
“His response: 'Well, today, Stanley had a baby. Now that’s something to write home about.'
The new mother was Stanley (later referred to by her middle name of Ann) Dunham, and the baby was Barack Hussein Obama.
'I penned the name on a napkin, and I did write home about it,' said Nelson, knowing that her father, Stanley A. Czurles, director of the Art Education Department at Buffalo State College, would be interested in the 'Stanley' connection.
She also remembers Dr. West mentioning that the baby’s father was the first black student at the University of Hawaii and how taken he was by the baby’s name.
'I remember Dr. West saying “Barack Hussein Obama, now that’s a musical name,” said Nelson, who grew up in Kenmore and went to Hawaii in 1959…”
How, without simply accusing this woman of lying, do you get around that, Doctor Feelbad?

The British Nationality ACT has nothing to do with a person born in the US as it relates to UNITED STATES laws, at all.
Indeed, Obama was still natural born and had dual allegiance during infancy. When he reached the age of majority, he continued his US birth right.
US law is clear on this. In fact, US law's position on dual allegiance is quite impressive as it has ruled that the conditions of the parents does not affect the status of the child.

To all of you Obots and site plants,
Let's assume your legal surname is Smith. Let's also assume your father's surname is Smith.
Why is your surname the same as your father??
Now let's assume your father is from Ireland. Why do you celebrate with the Irish on St Patrick's day??
Under Natural law your assume your father's surname and you are from his country, Ireland. That's why you would think of yourself as Irish. If you were born in america, you would be Irish-American and only 50% American, provided your mother was a US citizen.
Obama uses his father;s surname “Obama “and his Country is Kenya (his father's Country), Not American.
While you might prove he was born in Hawaii, it really makes no difference to Obama NOT being NATURAL BORN. He is only 50% American. You have to be 100% American to be NATURAL BORN citizen and be president of the US
The British laws do control who is treated as their subjects and US law can not make Britain impose US citizenship on their subjects. Can't happen.
So Obama's surname is taken from his father and his Country, Kenya, is also taken from his father.
Throw in the British Nationality Act of 1948 and the Kenya Constitution, Obama, jr. is a British citizen for now and always.

Klein asked CNN researchers to dig into the question of why Obama couldn't produce the original birth certificate. The researchers contacted the Hawaii Health Dept. and confirmed that paper documents were discarded in 2001 when the department went paperless. That reportedly includes Pres. Obama's original birth certificate.
Don't you love the ping pong on this? All for a certificate that only Obama or the court can release. And given Executive Order 13233 ability to use executive privilege on “any specific materials”, the legal barriers are in place to prevent the release the BC with intent.

Who is the source of the conspiracy? Is it a conspiracy if Hawaii has the original certificate and the only people blocking its access is Obama himself (only he has authorization to release it or the courts). Where is his transparency for the most basic records to demostrate his eligibility.

If you read carefully you will notice that Obama's campaign stated that Obama's status was governed by British Law. The fact that one may have dual citizenship is of no impact to the natural born US status. Courts have ruled that the child's natural birthright cannot be lost due to conditions arising through his parents and that when reaching the age of majority, the child can elect to continue his natural birth right.
Perhaps you should first familiarize yourself with the terminology and the legal precedents of those days before making foolish statements?

The record has been produced and people still refused to accept the facts, now the record has been certified by the Department of Health of Hawaii. In other words, the prima facie evidence of birth has been confirmed.
Some people will never be satisfied so there is really no need to cater to their needs. I'd say it's time to accept that President Obama is not only a de facto but also de jure President.

So why do you accept the Act of 1790 then which granted natural born citizenship to a class not historically covered?
What courts have done is applied the Constitution and Common Law tradition and shown that natural born birthright cannot be abandoned by the child. As such, Obama who was a natural born citizen by Jus Soli (being born in the US) and who also had the status of British Subject through British Law, was allowed to continue his birth right status (natural born) when he reached the age of majority.
Sorry my friend but courts do get to interpret terminology used and have consistently referred to US Common Law tradition which was based to a large extent on British Common Law. That should really be no big surprise to those familiar with the history of our nation

More history
Afterwards however in Convention the words natural born citizen were stricken out and the word native was substituted as the original words might have left an uncertainty as to the meaning of the Convention for natural born citizen might have had some reference to the manner of birth while the word native would refer more particularly to the place of birth

The constitution did have thoughts from common law but I quote Vattel the father of the words Natural born citizen used by the Framers of the constitution,
“I say, that in order to be of the COUNTRY, it is NECESSARY that a person be born of a FATHER who is a CITIZEN (British); for if he is BORN of a Foreigner (Kenya), it will ONLY be the place of his birth, and NOT his country”
It does not get any clearer than this. Efforts, otherwise are simply foolish.
Accordingly, Obama's COUNTRY is KENYA, by Natural law, and his citizenship is British, by DNC and BNA of 1948.
Obama: British subject citizen born, NEVER NATURAL BORN!!

nbc1,
You seemed balanced in your analysis of things but “certified by the Department of Health of Hawaii” isn't what we have been asking for. We are asking for THE ORIGINAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE. You know the difference between Certifcation and Certifcate of Live Birth. You know the difference between the ORIGINAL and a digital copy scanned image on the internet. Hawaii Official have not right to declare anything as they claim themselves. Just saying its real isn't the same as providing the simple original for peer review by experts. If you don't belief BC is an issue why are you so against birther seeking this information?

What does the 1846 New yorkc convention have to do with Article II of the US Constitution?
But, it does say that native is his place of birth.
Obama has said he is Native born. He has NEVER said why he thinks he is a “natural born” citizen. And, Native is NOT Natural born!!
I've been waiting for his statement for a year.
No statement and all records sealed. WHY??
Obama: British subject citizen born, NEVER NATURAL BORN!!

British law can not be made subordinate to US laws.
Under British law, Obama is a British subject citizen under the BNA of 1948. The Kenya Constitution implies that Obama is either a British citizen or Kenya citizen.
Either way Obama can NEVER be NATURAL BORN citizen of the US
Obama: British born,

The birth certificate HAS been produced. Just stop being disingenuous, already.
What's the reason for continuing to ask for detailed records for the public to see when the only record that has anything to do with eligibility has already been produced by the man who is “already” POTUS?
Who is the source of the conspiracy? Is it sore-loser racists? Is it a conspiracy if Hawaii only has an electronic record of the “original vital records” and is prohibited BY STATE LAW from releasing ANYONE's original records to ANYONE, including the person to whom the records pertain? Obama has no authority to override state law. You've heard of the Tenth Amendment?
There's only one problem here. You refuse to acknowledge that the only evidence that anyone in authority cares about is the COLB. It has been produced by Obama a year ago and authenticated by state officials, as recently as two days ago.
You make me sick. This bullshit has gone on for a long time. It's well past the time to suffer your idiocy politely.
Just learn English, already. Then stop asking questions that are irrelevant or that have been already thoroughly responded to, already.

Too bad. The COLB is the only birth certificate Hawaii now produces and is sufficient to establish President Obama's place of birth.
You weren't referring this this COLB?
Not really. Is that part of an argument or are you just trying to make light of the situation?
. Just saying its real isn't the same as providing the simple original for peer review by experts.
And so the goalposts keep moving. If having a state official confirm the place of birth as Hawaii is not enough to you then nothing will ever satisfy you but a finding that Obama was not born in Hawaii.

The COLB is evidence of his birth. Your stupid questions are not evidence. Nor do they shift your burden of proof to produce evidence.

The constitution did have thoughts from common law but I quote Vattel the father of the words Natural born citizen used by the Framers of the constitution,
Again what Vattel had to say here had no relevance to how Common Law understood these terms. If you are claiming, without much evidence, that Vattel's definition is what guided the Founders, then why would the founders use a word that all in those days understood to be something different?
By Common Law tradition of the US, Obama is natural born US citizen.
The courts have clearly and continuously held that Common Law decides how to interpret the Constitution when the Constitution remains ambiguous or used undefined terminology.
As I said, familiarize yourself with all the facts rather than pick some ill supported assertions that Vattel somehow was the source of the term “natural born” when it is clear that the term was equivalent to native born.

“Hawaii Official have not right to declare anything as they claim themselves.”
You have not right to mangle language English.
But of course you are wrong as well as stupid.
Tenth Amendment. Hawai'ian officials are the ONLY ones who have the right to decide what their birth records are and who can access them. They have decided, long ago, that the original records are not to be released to anyone, as to ANY person's birth certificate, not just Obama's, and that instead a COLB is what you get if you request a birth certificate.
If you don't like it, go complain loudly to a GOP representative. Otherwise you're just going to get clowned for being a dumbass.

It helps understand how these terms were used in those days.
And yes, by definitions of those days native born is natural born.

British law can not be made subordinate to US laws.
Which is why British law has no relevance to US law and thus unless Obama had expatriated, his US status prevails.
Those are the facts. In addition to following English Common Law, the US added a very liberal expatriation concept which protect natural born US citizens from losing their birthright natural born status.

Someone who has obtained Obama's permission to view it? I understand that you insist Obama releases his 'original birth certificate' but for purpose of establishing Obama's citizenship and natural born status, all that is needed is his location of birth.
The rest is just a fishing expedition.

Dumb. Ass.
You're still here? Wow. Yesterday you got all you needed to know.
Your logic didn't get any less tortured when you decided to put spaces between paragraphs.
You're still pushing an idiotic idea. Why would anyone need to see his birth certificate, if his eligibility is determined from his father's nationality? WE FUCKING KNOW his dad is African, Kenyan, British, whatever just not American. Yet even the birthers are clamoring for a birth certificate.
Why is that? Why the discrepancy? Is it that you are the only one on Earth who knows about this old British law that applies, even, as you said yesterday, if Obama was born in the White House?
Or is it that you're a fucking dunce who doesn't understand the most basic point of American citizenship law, which is, born here = natural born U.S. citizen.
Go spend 1 minute talking to a Republican about why they hate Mexican immigrants. It's because those immigrants squeeze out puppies I mean children on our soil and those children are full U.S. citizens.
Then do as I told you and unpin your mittens from your winter coat, then stab yourself in the finger with one of the mittens to remind yourself not to be so stupid again.
In the old days, when an Englishman wanted to buy land from another Englishman, the two men would walk out onto the field with a small boy. The buyer would shake the seller's hand and then slap the hell out of the boy. The boy would never in his life forget that the buyer had slapped him. Hence he would never forget that the land transaction took place.
The system worked great. Then someone invented filing systems. Now we don't smack kids when we buy property.
Too bad we can't smack you every time someone asks for the friggin' birth certificate! Well, we can, just with words. Dumb. Ass.

Read the above quote again and then repeat that nonsense about Lynch not being a natural born citizen. You've been pwn3d by nbc1's citation to binding authority and humiliated by my taunting exposure of your illogical argument by posing a counterfactual.

No birther ever gets to write “don't try to divert the discussion.”
Birthers do nothing but divert the discussion. Your post is a prime example.
Obama doesn't get to override the Tenth Amendment.
Don't try to divert the discussion from where it belongs, which is that a COLB is prima facie evidence of his birth in Hawaii and it is your burden to show that the COLB is false, not merely to ask for other documents in the hopes that they provide your struggling dumb ass a lifeline out of the mess you've made by failing to read or comprehend anything whatsoever on point.
Comment posted July 29, 2009 @ 6:30 pm
Just to flesh out nbc1's point, whenever the opinion of one judge is quoted approving by a subsequent judge, that has the same precedential force and effect as if the quoting judge had been the original author of the quoted words.
Put simply, when the original opinion was quoted with approval, that affirms beyond any doubt that the original opinion was and remains correct, and the original opinion has binding precedential value.

Vattel's words did not shape, inform or otherwise influence the founding fathers. The Law of Nations has nothing to do with U.S. law. They could have chosen to follow Vattel but did not. Their deliberate decision has meaning.
Specifically, it means you're stupid for continuing to push this absurd contention about Obama being a British subject just because (you say) his dad was.

We're still laughing. We won't ever have to fight you. The courts prevent us from doing so, because the judges throw the cases out as frivolous and lacking standing before we get a chance to “fight” about the issues you (don't) have standing to raise.
But really never mind all the legalese. We're just laughing at you.

Thus far, no one has noticed that Ted Kennedy is a 300 year old giant tortoise with a combover.
No one has observed that the Capitol Building is just a set on a Hollywood sound stage and has been such ever since 1968, when we dismantled the real Capitol building and sold it brick-by-brick for money to buy weed and Woodstock tickets.
No one has guessed that there's no such place as Alaska. We just invented it to keep stupid people from digging for gold in their backyards and hitting underground power lines. They all head off to the frozen tundra and die from eating poisonous berries along the way.
Naturalborn is a threat and must be silenced. My plan is to get him a microphone and a public forum, in hopes that some loyal GOP'er will pelt him with rotten tomatoes before he further erodes the credibility of wingnut doofuses everywhere.

Taipei Times reports
It’s not because the president is black, of course. It’s because those upstanding Americans who cheered as US President Barack Obama’s predecessor rode roughshod over the Constitution in his “war on terror” have found a new enthusiasm for a strict adherence to the US’ supreme law. Specifically, they’re interested in a clause requiring the president to be born a natural-born citizen (although that doesn’t mean to say that they’re not still worried that Obama is secretly Muslim).

Huffington posts has some useful suggestions how to continue the conspiracy
But creative Obama opponents should certainly be able to come up with other crackpot ideas about why he's not the legitimate POTUS. To save them some time, here are some suggestions:
— According to now-established precedent, a President can't take office until the U.S. Supreme Court says so.
— He once shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.
— His fingers on top of the Bible during swearing in were clearly crossed.
— Name spelled backwards is “amabo,” which is Latin for “I shall love.” So he must be from Latin America.
— Angela Lansbury brainwashed him.
— Once while marching in honor guard as a young Boy Scout accidentally allowed American flag to touch the ground.
— Birthers now focusing not on where Obama was born, but on when. And so far all evidence indicates he's only 19.
— At the conclusion of oath of office, actually said “So help me, dawg!”

Correct, Vattel's Law of Nation guided international relationships, not municipal law which was guided by Common Law principles. Just check how SCOTUS typically referenced Vattel in cases on issues relating to nations.

Interesting facts about the doctor that delivered Obama. Seems the guy was kind of a hero when the Japs attacked Pearl Harbor.
On December 7th, 1941, during the second wave of strafing and bombing by Japanese planes, he crossed the channel in an open whaleboat to report to duty at the Ford Island Dispensary. There he attended to hundreds of burned victims, and remained at the dispensary until Thursday, at which time he was finallly able to return to his Manoa home.
Following his tour of duty at Pearl Harbor, Dr. West served on Johnston Island in the Pacific, at Oahu’s Kaneohe Naval Air Station, (now KMCS), at Pensacola, Florida’s NAS where he received flight surgeon training, and at Key West, Florida’s NAS as chief medical officer. There his third child, a son, was born. After VJ Day, he returned to the NAS in Honolulu to receive his full commander’s rating and honorable discharge from active duty. He continued to serve in the Naval Reserves until September of 1949.

Here's an interesting take on the idiocy of being a British Citizen/subject/peon.
“In other words, at the time of his birth, Barack Obama Jr. was both a U.S. citizen (by virtue of being born in Hawaii) and a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies (or the UKC) by virtue of being born to a father who was a citizen of the UKC.
Obama's British citizenship was short-lived. On Dec. 12, 1963, Kenya formally gained its independence from the United Kingdom. Chapter VI, Section 87 of the Kenyan Constitution specifies that:
1. Every person who, having been born in Kenya, is on 11th December, 1963 a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies or a British protected person shall become a citizen of Kenya on 12th December, 1963…
2. Every person who, having been born outside Kenya, is on 11th December, 1963 a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies or a British protected person shall, if his father becomes, or would but for his death have become, a citizen of Kenya by virtue of subsection (1), become a citizen of Kenya on 12th December, 1963.
As a citizen of the UKC who was born in Kenya, Obama's father automatically received Kenyan citizenship via subsection (1). So given that Obama qualified for citizen of the UKC status at birth and given that Obama's father became a Kenyan citizen via subsection (1), it follows that Obama did in fact have Kenyan citizenship after 1963. So The Rocky Mountain News was at least partially correct.
But the paper failed to note that the Kenyan Constitution prohibits dual citizenship for adults. Kenya recognizes dual citizenship for children, but Kenya's Constitution specifies that at age 21, Kenyan citizens who possesses citizenship in more than one country automatically lose their Kenyan citizenship unless they formally renounce any non-Kenyan citizenship and swear an oath of allegiance to Kenya.
Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982. ”
Now I realize that anyone who posts something that so seriously slaps them across the face so easily and handily is nothing more than a running dog tool of the fat cat limousine liberals who deserves Dear Leader's wrath, it is nonetheless true. And it's from Fact Check.org.
So tell us Naturallydumb, HOW do you refute that?
BY the way, did you pick up some of the new color tinted tinfoil hats now available in the lobby?

What, Barry is supposed to be “black”? Jeez, noogie, that's a surprise. Let's see; he's one-half third-generation “red diaper baby” socialist White on his mom's side. On what might be his biological father's side (remember, Stanley Ann Dunham slept around a helluva lot, and his real dad's name might as well have been “Little” or “Davis”), he's mostly Arab – the folk who were responsible for capturing and selling into slavery virtually all the African ancestors of American descendants of chattel slaves bought by “blackbirders” and transported across the Atlantic – and a bitty-bit Luo tribesman.
So Barry is about as “authentically black” as Donny and Marie Osmond.
And “secretly Muslim”… Hm. That's plausible. Michelle had to practically drag him into attending a Nazrany church in Chicago because she knew he'd have to be able to fake Christianity for the yokels if he wanted his political career to go anywhere. Considering that he spent much of his childhood in Indonesia learning Arabic and memorizing the Qu'uran….
But, hey, noogie, are you trying to make a funny? Look, I know that part of the constellation of psychopathological dysfunctions we call the “Liberal” mindset includes severe thought-blocking when it comes to matters you dorks religiously consider “political incorrectness,” have he even paused to consider the Awful Truth that a whole bunch of the people who hate and oppose your Marxist Messiah do so not because he's “black” (which he ain't) or “secretly Muslim” (he's almost certainly an atheist, or at least a “secular humanist”) but rather because he's a SOCIALIST bent upon destroying this nation's division-of-labor market economy and imposing upon us the dirigisme of his hateful totalitarian vision?
Or that those of us who oppose him – and you, noogster – must automatically have supported his bugnuts, Heimatsicherheitsdienst USA PATRIOT Act predecessor, Dubbya?

My point about how American black people (and other “people of color”) have been gulled, cullied, and diddled into supporting your blatantly faux noir Mombasa Messiah is that it’s as wonderful a slice of irony as had been the poor White trash population getting suckered into supporting that Connecticut-born, Amherst-prepped, Yale-matriculated, Harvard-MBA’d silver-spoon Down East aristocrat simulating a Midlands, Texas, “aw shucks!” shitkicker.
You know – Dubbya.
And Barry Soetoro’s “background” during his lifetime – his childhood studying Arabic and memorizing the Qu’uran in Indonesia, his education in perhaps the most prestigious prep school in Hawaii, his scholarship (probably on a “foreign national” basis) to Occidental College, his matriculation at Columbia and then later at Harvard Law, paid for with money raised by Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour despite Barry’s and Michelle’s happy fictions about how they’d been heavily saddled with debt by way of student loans which had never been reported on Barry’s financial statement submitted to the U.S. Senate when he’d slimed his way from Cook County to Washington City….
The proper question, rogered, is “Exactly WHAT is the black cultural experience that Barry Soetoro has ever truly had?”

Wishing won't make it so, poopsie.
Besides, of course, there's just so goddam much in his personal past history – despite his Brobdingnagian lifelong effort to cover it up and “seal” it away – that something's bound to uncork and bring him down on that glorious day when we all get to see the first presidential perp-walk through the Rose Garden.

Certainly Doc Tuci doesn’t need me to add anything and he'll make me sorry I did. I’ll probably have to look up his insults to get the full effect.
I don’t think he stands with the birthers. He is too logical. He said in a post he is mostly aligned with the Libertarian Party. I think he disagrees with our President’s politics, thinks we're all idiots and enjoys the banter with someone that can go toe to toe with him. The rest of us he has no use for. I liked a line he threw when I said he wasn’t good at insulting me. His reply was “Every day, in every way, I am getting better and better jimmie.” I looked the quote up. It is from Emile Coue French psychotherapist (1857 – 1926)
I hope I have his fight and command of that much knowledge when I get his age. Like I said before, the fear on this message board is the doc will run out of insults and turn into Doctor Sunshine.

Oh geez dude, your tinfoil hat is on WAAAYYY to tight. Seriously get help.
So now he's not black.
He almost certainly an atheist…gotta lave that CERTAINLY ALMOST part.
Or GASP, he's a “secular humanist” Do you EVEN KNOW what that means? Besides being a bad thing because he ain't letting the Buybull tell him how to govern? Seriously…do you?
HERE ya go and ya know what…sounds better than some moron like Bush saying he answers to a higher power.
Definition
Secular Humanism is a humanist philosophy that upholds reason, ethics, and justice, and specifically rejects the supernatural and the spiritual as the basis of moral reflection and decision-making. Like other types of humanism, secular humanism is a life stance that focuses on the way human beings can lead good, happy and functional lives.”
Yeah that just sounds so …….::menacing drum roll please:: DARK AND EVIL. Oooooo I'm getting scared now……reason….oh God NOOOOOO………Ethics…..NEVER NEVER NEVER……Justice…….OVER MY DEAD BODY WITH IT'S COLD DEAD FINGERS HOLDING MY GUN!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, it's obviously such an evil way to live I'm surprised our military hasn't taken him out in the NAME OF THE LORD!!!!!!!!!.
And a Socialist who is bent on destroying our division of labor market economy and imposing upon us the Dirigisme ( You do know that as “intellectual” as it may sound to write these words it takes but a few seconds to find them out and it is interesting that you would use a French word considering the general disdain cons have for the French) AND sometimes the government HAS to step in when the crooks and liars running our banking system are destroying our economy and please don't give me any bullshit about Obama doing this. He's trying to fix the problem cons and those who support them put this country into .
All the while the cons try to blame the economy on Obama thus further proving they are all talk and cannot take responsibility for their own self destructive ways anyone with more than two brain cells to rub together knows the Cons are responsible for the current state of our economy and refuse to do anything about it except be the party or NO NO NO wah wah wah.
So do get over your insane hatred for the president and get with the 21st Century. Stop listening to El Rushbo and fakenews.
So do get over

Barry Soetoro – your beloved Mombasa Messiah – is certainly not American black, by which is meant the descendant of West African negro folk taken into slavery in their homelands, sold to white merchants, and crammed into the holds of “blackbirder” sailing ships for transportation across the Atlantic to auction blocks in harbors like Savannah and Charleston and New Orleans.
He shares absolutely nothing in terms of real culture or personal experience with American blacks. While their parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents were coming Up From Slavery in the south, or migrating north to find jobs in manufacturing centers like Detroit and Chicago in the first half of the 20th Century, his paternal forbears were Arab slave traders (note the name, rogered? “Barack” is from the Arabic for “blessed,” and “Hussein” is the Arabic diminutive for “handsome”) and Swahili-speakers trying not to get wiped out by the Kikuyu.
To what little extent he's “black” at all, he's East African – Luo tribe – and therefore as much related by blood or culture to America's black population as a Lapplander is related to the inhabitants of an American city's “Little Italy.”
Similar coloration, but there's the end of it. And in the Dunham household he was raised (in Weird Al's wonderful phrase) “Whiter than sour cream.”
Barry fakes “being black” the way he fakes moral probity. Glossy, but patently superficial.
And the use of the word “dirigisme” is appropriate, you noodge, because socialism got its start – more or less simultaneously – in France and in Great Britain in the first half of the 19th Century. Wassamatta, you don't know your own roots?
Oh, yeah. And “sometimes the government HAS to step in when the crooks and liars running our banking system are destroying our economy,” eh? Right. Not that it was the officers of civil government – bought and paid for by the banksters and the other crooks – who hadn't set up the regulatory environment in which these criminals have been “destroying our economy” since Clay's “American System” of pork, plunder, and protectionism was first established?
Little bent-over-and-lubricated roger, don't you get it? The thing government officers and all other criminals dislike so much about the market economy is that unless somebody either really stupid (that's you) or really crooked (that's Barry) fucks with it to “pick winners,” that economy has implacably operating mechanisms which punish waste and deceit and bad decisions with what honest economist call the processes of “creative destruction,” suppressing the malinvestment of resources in such wastefulness and criminality and fraudulences and tending always to drive human effort and capital and materials into the fulfillment of productive purposes and the creation of wealth.
Wealth doesn't “just happen” so that you and your Marxist Messiah can pillage it, roger. It requires purposeful human action channeled into coordinated enterprises that the officers of government – who are either popularity contest winners or bloated bureaucrats – can neither understand nor “manage” nor do anything other than drive into complete ruin.
The market does this coordinating job better than anything else in the history of the human race. The government just fucks it up.

The more money that has been spent on government-run healthcare, the less healthcare we have gotten. This kind of result is generally true of all government bureaucracies because of the absence of any market feedback mechanism. Since there are no profits in an accounting sense, by definition, in government, there is no mechanism for rewarding good performance and penalizing bad performance. In fact, in all government enterprises, exactly the opposite is true: bad performance (failure to achieve ostensible goals, or satisfy 'customers') is typically rewarded with larger budgets. Failure to educate children leads to more money for government schools. Failure to reduce poverty leads to larger budgets for welfare state bureaucracies. This is guaranteed to happen with healthcare socialism as well.“

can we put this to bed now?, Unless Obama authorized her to release the information/document, she broke the law with her comment… And if he authorized it's release, or the release of information within it, why doesn't every news agency in the US have a copy of the one they saw and verified in their vault? (and no, they did not destroy the paper records as many have claimed when they went digital according to every authoritative article I've read)
Additionally, her statement of “natural Born Status” is not her call, that's a constitutional/federal call, not a state's call..

Geez Tuckus, exactly where do I start with you incredibly unintellible attempt at insulting me. Little and i do mean LITTLE items like the idiotic “Mombasa Messiah' are just further proof you anger and hatred towards the president have reached pretty high levels.
And the SHEER idiocy that you think I have a 'growing suspicion” about Obama is laughable to the ultimate degree. I cannot fathom how someone with the faux ability to write that you would have us believe you can do can somehow come across as so incredibly retarded.
Just because you WANT to believe something with such an ignorant fervor hardly makes it true and probably within your own little mind even you realize just how completely you must sound.

But, I've had a PayPal “Contribute” button on my site for over a year. Every day, I get 200 to 300 emails. 50 Of them from folks that tell me I'm a patriot, or they're praying for me, or the site is invaluable, blah, blah, blah. None of those emailers ever clicked the PayPal button.
I've been reading those emails for months, and instead of making me feel good, they disappointed me. I spend 8 to 10 hours a day at this — 7 days a week, and with the exception of a local guy who sent me two $100 hits a year ago, I have received from my loyal readership $40 in contributions in the last 16 months — while my bandwidth steadily increased.

And Barry is “a little bit country, a little bit rock and roll,” too. Ain't that wonderful?
As I'd written on another post a moment ago, what little there is of negro ethnicity in Barry Soetoro is East African – Swahili-speaking Luo tribe – while effectively all the ancestors of authentic American black people were West African peoples.
Kinda like the difference between somebody from Portugal and somebody from Kamchatka, y'know? Similarity in coloration, breadth of nostrils, thickness of lips – but that's it, baby.
Besides which, while the past couple of centuries saw the American forbears of today's black population in this nation coming Up From Slavery in Dixie, and/or migrating north to find jobs in the industries of Illinois and Michigan and Pennsylvania and Ohio in the first half of the 20th Century, Barry's part-Arab paternal family line was preoccupied with trying not to get wiped out by their Kikuyu neighbors.
The guy's not even a credible graft on the American black experience. He's a complete faux noir phoney who had to be dragged by Michelle into a black gospel-shoutin' church in Chicago to soak up enough exposure to the culture for him to “pass” as a real negro.

Natural Born?
read this http://people.mags.net/tonchen/birthers.htm and read through the sub links too, it will give you plenty to back up your “correct” theory that he may be a citizen by jus soli, but not by jus sanguinis and therefore is not a “Constitutional Natural Born Citizen”, I also don't believe him to be a “Statutory natural Born Citizen” either, but whether he is statutory or not is also irrelevant..
that article and it's sub links address why the 14th amendment doesn't actually give him Natural Born status, why Wong Kim Ark doesn't, and where in numerous cases the SCOTUS has upheld Vattel's definition (1758 Law of Nations, Book 1, chapter 19, part 212) of “born to a country of parents who are citizens of that country” and also where they expressed doubt regarding one “citizen” parent equaling Natural Born Status..
hope that helps.

Dunno how “Internet-savvy” you butt-sucking Obamaphiles really are. I made a reference to LexisNexis in an exchange with little stevie a while ago, and the silly git seems never to have heard of the first really significant profit-making proprietary service ever to offer the American legal profession access to digitally accessible law research resources.

LexisNexis has been around for quite a while and when I worked for two different law firms (one immigration which turned me against illegals, and a Constitutional firm which turned me into a diehard liberal more than I ever thought I was) we used it extensively.
Your point?

Doc B, Are you feeling singled out? Is everyone out to get you? Paranoia strikes deep, into your heart it will creep.
All of your and other birther claims have been discredited. Whats left to do but mock, the educated fool.
I thought that you might be different than most of the trailer trash we have been dealing with here. But i was naive, you may live the well heeled life but you consort with the dregs of society. I guess that's the way its always been, the oligarchs use the feeble minded to do their bidding.
We used to respect and admire successful people in this country because people were told that they could work hard and prosper. That illusion has been stripped away, retirement for many is a greeter job at walmart.
I think you might be happier in one of those Central American countries where they know how to handle the masses.

Yeah, I think LEXIS began offering its service (for a hefty price) to lawyers back in '73. I recall having been involved in some litigation revolving around a patient who had sustained injuries in an industrial accident, and his attorney had provided me with photocopies of LEXIS information he'd pulled down through their system in order to guide me in the format he wanted the medical reports to be couched so as to ease his task in presenting them in court. That was my first exposure to what later became LexisNexis.
My point was that we've got stevie claiming to be a lawyer and going fuddled when LexisNexis got mentioned. Oh, well. Maybe Westlaw is all he's ever been exposed to?
I think that my own “Road to Damascus” moment came when I opened up my own practice and started writing paychecks. I'd spent all my life getting fucked-over by the federal, state, and municipal governments and seeing those mulctings on my own pay stubs, but when you've got to set up the books and make the deductions yourself and do the bureaucrats' damnable screwing of your own people – the people whom you trust and employ, the people who trust you to do what's right for them – to send that extortion along to the great gub'mint toilet (now that it's done electronically, I've been trying to get the computer to put out a loud flushing sound when the action is completed)…
Well, that kicked me into that full “drown the government in the bathtub” Grover Norquist mode to which young stevie takes such snitty exception.

“He is too logical.”
jim, tell me that you're kidding. When someone says a doctor is too logical, I picture Dr. Spock.
I don't picture a man who seems preoccupied with watching public officials be sodomized in prison or executed or assassinated because he blames them for the failures of his personal life, much less the failures of wingnut libertarianism to take root in society.
I certainly don't picture a man who mocks handicapped people. Nor a man who manages to slip racism, sexism, and xenophobia into nearly every post.
I've never understood excessive logic to be characterized by a belief that one does not need proof of one's absurdly insulting conspiracy theorist claims against sitting government officials.
I don't think it is logical to have an acute, irrationally excessive distrust of the government (something about not trusting the government more than he can clean-and-jerk the Washington Monument comes to mind).
I fail to see the logic in writing out death threats against the President, knowing that you're doing so on a liberal blogging site and knowing that it is a federal crime to do so.
I briefly entertained the possibility that test-taker was faking the insanity. You can all see on this thread and elsewhere that I gave the man far more “benefit of the doubt” than he deserved. You can also see that I was right about my initial impression of him.
Turns out he was faking being personable. I will waste no more time talking to him, but I wanted to get straight with you about our impressions. They clash.
Let's be clear. I'm saying the man's not logical and he's not intelligent. I am not saying he doesn't have a myna bird's larger than average vocabulary (again, though, you see that he misuses words all the time — he doesn't know what a usurper is and he tried to teach himself Italian but failed).
I am saying he writes heroically-convoluted sentences. I'm saying he's illogical and stupid.
One of my English professors taught me never to use a ten-cent word where a five-cent word will do. The best lawyers are similarly those who put things in simple, plain terms. It is harder to do that than to hide behind jargon.
test-taker Tuci78 goes well out of his way to use the most obscure, obfuscating, clarity-inhibiting terminology possible. He hides behind it. Because his ideas, stripped naked, are repulsive. He tries to conceal that with his attempt at derisive wit. In my view he fails miserably.
He's a vile bit of pond scum who insults handicapped people while pretending to be an intelligent, seen-it-all-before “individualist.” Selfish, racist, sexist, cruel, egotistical, empty-headed, prissy jerk is more like it.
Correct me where I've gone wrong here, jim. Pete, any thoughts?

Anyone catch Jonathan Martin from Politico talking on Hardball today?
He perfectly encapsulated what the birther movement is about. I will post the transcript when it's available. He said, among other things, that the birther movement is nothing more than thinly-veiled racism by those who refuse to accept that America overwhelmingly voted for a black man.
Sounds a LOT like what I and just about every other non-birther posting here have been saying!
Until I get the transcript, here's something to chew on.
House Minority leader John Boehner and RNC chair Michael “I don't do policy” Steele have both come out unequivocally on Obama's side:
“Other Republican leaders, including Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, have outright dismissed the birth certificate question, saying there’s no doubt Obama is a natural-born citizen.
When pressed by another reporter as to whether he had any doubts that Obama was born in Hawaii, Boehner had a curt, one-word answer:'No.'”

Ah, “well heeled.” Don't I wish? Go talk to the ophthalmologists and the thoracic surgeons.

And who's “B,” anyway?
Dunno why I should be the same as anybody else, outhouse. As I'd said in an earlier post, us individualists tend pretty reliably each to be individuals. And, yeah, I'm consorting here “with the dregs of society.” I've been doing it all my professional life. Somebody's gotta run the VD clinics and treat the overdose cases in the Emergency Department and make the rounds in the detox units. I do “doctor to the poor” pretty well, and anything one does well, one gets stuck with.
And you Obamaphiles certainly qualify as “the dregs.” Glad you acknowledge it. But, hell, kid, why are you so down on yourself? “Beauty is only skin deep, but stupid runs clear to the bone.” Izzat it?
Look, I don't ask you to “respect and admire” me for any reason whatsoever. Didn't come here for this purpose. Read some of Weigel's stuff in Reason magazine, Web searched his name, and found him prostituting himself here for your Mombasa Messiah. If anything, I expect you and your sputniki to hate the hell out of me. I want the federal government hammered back down again to the point at which the American people can live our lives in peace and freedom, without getting robbed of eight to nine tenths of our productive capacity and wealth by bureaucrats and popularity contest winners and lawyers.
I'll stay here, thanks. Those “Central American countries” are decidedly more in your style of “everybody-at-everybody-else's-throat” living than anybody I know and trust has ever wanted.

Aw, and point out where I've ever been guilty of the “misuse” of a word, stevie.

I really meant what I said about professionals wanting to help people who clearly need it. Many of my clients aren't the most articulate or the most attractive people I've met, but there's something basically good about them that makes you internalize their problems and want to help them put their best foot forward, even if they acted stupidly before they got legal representation.

Seriously dude, this hatred thing you have is pretty disingenuous for someone supposedly as edumacated as you claim to be. Not to mention probably dangerous for your mental health (what little there is left).
Take a deep breath. Relax, the country isn't going to become whatever it is you fear it is. And that is why I question your education because you seem so irrational about exactly what Obama is doing or trying to do.
What exactly did your party do for America? (Hint, want a very long list and none of it good?)

Damn, stevie. How am I supposed to know when you're trying to “make a funny”? You don't do it particularly well, y'know.
And why shouldn't LexisNexis (the old LEXIS database service) fail to have incorporated information on “the state of the alw in 1961″ accessible through the password supplied to you by your law firm or whatever?
If you had access to that information and didn't want to do this, your humble co-respondent, the courtesy of obliging him in a reasonable request, why didn't you just say so?

Nag, nag, nag, nag. What d'you know about what Grover Norquist means, stevie?
I know, f'rinstance, that he derived that “drown in my bathtub” line from Frank Chodorov's statement to the effect that Frank wanted a federal government “small enough to fit into my kitchen.”
I think the “drown in my bathtub” variant catches the sentiments of about 80% of the population today a good deal better than Chodorov's expression.

Oh, let's discuss “the health care debate,” little lawyer.
By all means, lets!
–
“The more money that has been spent on government-run healthcare, the less healthcare we have gotten. This kind of result is generally true of all government bureaucracies because of the absence of any market feedback mechanism. Since there are no profits in an accounting sense, by definition, in government, there is no mechanism for rewarding good performance and penalizing bad performance. In fact, in all government enterprises, exactly the opposite is true: bad performance (failure to achieve ostensible goals, or satisfy 'customers') is typically rewarded with larger budgets. Failure to educate children leads to more money for government schools. Failure to reduce poverty leads to larger budgets for welfare state bureaucracies. This is guaranteed to happen with healthcare socialism as well.“

When i said, things of real importance, i meant fly fishing in the Gila. I guess that other stuff should get some attention too. The last couple of weeks have left me somewhat drained and i need to get my mojo back.
A few days in the wilderness usually does the trick. I usually meet some interesting people which renews my optimism about the human race.
There was an interesting story on the news about three Buffalo Soldiers who were reburied with full honors at the National Cemetary in Santa Fe. Buffalo Soldier reenactors were the honor guard which was a nice touch. It was great to see some of the real heros of the old west get the respect they deserve.

Everybody seems to think that the Buffalo Soldiers were only cavalrymen, and forget all about the 24th and 25th Infantry Regiments. The ground-pounders deserve their slice of the glory, too.

Everything is racist to you people when the chance of a usurper may have gotten in the office. If there is nothing to hide nothing to conspire about…just have Obama release the record already. Why make this into a racist issue? As president who campaign for transparency…he is definitely the least transparent President.
The conspiracy being created by Obama's refusal to show the long form of the birth certifcate will only hurt him unnecessary unless he does have something to hide which will destroy him.

H.R.1503
Title: To amend the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 to require the principal campaign committee of a candidate for election to the office of President to include with the committee's statement of organization a copy of the candidate's birth certificate, together with such other documentation as may be necessary to establish that the candidate meets the qualifications for eligibility to the Office of President under the Constitution.
The reason for this law is to define what it means to be an “ntural born citizen” to be able to qualify as President. In other words, there is nothing TODAY in the Constitution that say a Certification of live birth IS OR ISN'T enough to meet the egilibity requirements.

I bought my copy of the new book on Obama.
It's called, “Barack Obama and Larry Sinclaire, Cocaine, Sex and Murders”
It is available at sinclairepublishing.com for $33.
Someday, well into the future, we may learn what knowledge Obama has about the three murders of gay men from Obama's and Rev. Wright's church in Chicago.
The Chicago police seem to have NO interest in solving the murders.
I wonder why? Maybe, because it's the land of Chicago Thugs.
OBAMA: British citizen born, NEVER NATURAL BORN!!
Comment posted July 30, 2009 @ 3:20 pm
To Rogerramjet or RogerRabbit,
I found your comment about Obama losing his Kenyan citizenship in 1982 and that his British citizenship was 'short lived” interesting but factually with several errors.
I believe the Queen of England would take exception to you trying to steal one of her Subjects. Even US laws can not take a British subjects away from the Queen. I'm quite sure that she is proud that one of her subjects was elected president of the US. I don't believe the Queen would support someone who illegality obtained the office and is a Usurper.
How could you possible know what Obama did with his Kenyan citizenship? Do you have some of his secret documents that no one can see? He could just as well pledged allegiance to Kenya. You have NO way of knowing. His Kenyan citizenship files are also secret. Aren't they??
Do you have a copy of his formal ” Declaration of Renunciation” of his British citizenship that would have been sent to Her Majesty, the Queen?? I have not seen it yet.
If you do have such a copy, would you please share it with the rest of the world. Mr. Obama seems not to like to share any information with anyone. Everything is all so top secret.
We now have a British citizen serving as a Defacto president , a Usurper in chief.

You're funny. But yes, by virtue of citizenship being based on jus soli, all that is necessary is one to be born on US soil. Of course there are other eligibility requirements such as residency requirements and age requirements.
Congress certified Obama's election results and thus was satisfied that the information they had was sufficient for President Obama to qualify.

Still unfamiliar with the difference between de facto officer and usurper I notice. The two are very different. President Obama never could have been a usurper as he was elected, certified and sworn in. In other words the process was followed. He could have been a de facto officer if he had been found not to be eligible, but even then, his actions up to that moment would be binding and legal.
Such is the law

If Obama is found to be a USURPER, and takes the oath of office knowing he is not a natural born citizen he will be committing perjury.
If he is determined to have committed perjury then every act he takes as President will considered criminal acts.
If he is totally legal, why doesn't he just release his “original” birth certificate for verification.
We need to the see the “original” certificate that the Governor has “sealed” for some reason, possibly even at Obama's request when he was in Hawaii.

And here we have a legal ruling about double allegiance and how the child can elect to continue US citizenship back to the time of his birth, making him a native and natural born citizen
In Rawle’s View of the Constitution of the United States, p. 86, it is said: “Every person born within the United Slates, its territories, or districts whether the parents are citizens or aliens is a natural born citizen within the sense of the Constitution, and entitled to all the rights and privileges appertaining to that capacity.” …
Moreover, if as is suggested, he [LaFayette ] was born to the advantages of a double allegiance, upon attaining his majority he exercised the right which was his of electing the government to which he would give allegiance, and that election related back to the time of his birth. Upon these authorities LaFayette had by birth what his father did not then have, citizenship of the United States and of the State of Massachusetts. This privilege neither needed nor had any strengthening by reflection from the subsequent naturalization of his father; he held it to the fullest extent in his own, and that the highest right.

I see, blame Obama again for the Republicans not doing their job? Fascinating…
However, anyone in Congress had the opportunity to object to the certification of votes and noone stood up and voiced their concerns. Even if, as you suggest, without much merit, that the media refused to vet him (the media showed him natural born per COLB), no objections were raised and Obama was duly elected.
Now we know that they did the right thing because, despite some claiming that the COLB was falsified, the facts are that it showed Obama born on US soil.
Time to stop whining and accept the facts my dear friend.

If Obama is found to be a USURPER, and takes the oath of office knowing he is not a natural born citizen he will be committing perjury.
That does not make him a usurper.
If he is determined to have committed perjury then every act he takes as President will considered criminal acts.
That is contrary to the facts as laid out by the “De Facto Officer” doctrine

Because the COLB suffices.

You said it all, Pete.
My Dad and I used to go to the Gila in the summer. I always liked it. Also remember the summertime hours spent trying to divert the Pecos one boulder at a time. My favorite mountains are the Jemez. In high school we used to go up there, past the hot springs (two points for spotting naked people walking down to the road, five points for girls who made no attempt to cover up), and camp out amidst the red rocks, after scaling Cabezon.
Everything was simpler then. When you're that age you can imbibe heroic amounts of alcohol, wake up the next morning still drunk, eat leftover fast food, and drive home feeling like a champion.
Never been a fly-fisherman. I learned to bait a hook as a toddler. Dad was more interested in drinking beer and getting away from the world, ok, getting away from Mom, than he was in spending his time trying to roll-cast.
A couple of buddies from a previous law firm tried to teach me the finer points of fly-fishing, but my favorite part was always when we'd take off from work in the middle of the day to head over to the fly shop and get the gear. Hey, beats work!
Like you, whenever I spend time in the wild, it renews my faith in man. Kind of weird how that works. But I think it reconnects you to the simple things that bind all of us. We need food, water, shelter and companionship. You can take those things for granted until you have none of them. Plus it's so beautiful out there (and here in CA) that you cannot help but be humbled and enthused about the world when you return.
Thanks for the head's up about the Buffalo Soldiers. Belated respect is better than no respect.
See you around the threads, Pete.

bDe jure officer and usurper defined
A de jure officer is one whose legal title to an office is clear while a usurper is one who has intruded upon an office and assumes to exercise its functions without either color of right or the lawful title to it though when his assumption to office is acquiesced in he may grow into an officer de facto
Usurper clearly is one who intrudes without color or right or the lawful title to it. President Obama was elected, certified and sworn in and thus not a usurper.
Conditions under which a de facto officer may exist
A de facto officer may exist where one is performing the duties of an office and acting under an invalid or irregular election or appointment where one is acting as a public official and performing the duties of an office although he may be ineligible to perform those duties or eligible but has not taken the steps required by law to properly qualify for the office

Folks, I told you yesterday I'd post the transcript from the Wednesday, July 29 edition of Hardball where Jonathan Martin of Politico put a lid on the birther nonsense. The other commentator is Lois Romano of the Washington Post…
Here's the relevant portion of the transcript, followed by a link to the whole show…
“ROMANO: You know, Chris, I think you‘re on to something there. I think the far right has picked up on all these racial overtones. You know, I did a piece on Michelle Obama, I guess, a few weeks ago. It had about 400 comments on the Internet. And some of them were so vile, we had to take them down. They were so racist.
They know they‘re hitting a core segment of society. And they‘re trying to inflame these racial feelings.
MARTIN: Right.
MATTHEWS: Your thoughts, Jonathan? Why is party politics—we know he‘s African-American. That‘s fact, manifest from the day we first met him in his big speech. Why is it news that they‘re playing the racial card the way they‘re playing it?
MARTIN: Well, the birth certificate offers a certain segment out there some degree of reassurance that this country didn‘t actually elect somebody who is African-American. Look, it‘s not even thinly veiled. The whole birth certificate issue is totally driven by this sense on [sic] denial by this small fraction of American society. They can‘t except [sic] the fact that he‘s our president, so they‘re grasping at this, even though, obviously, it‘s totally debunked. Of course it‘s about race. They don‘t want to accept—
MATTHEWS: So it‘s not about documentation? It‘s about pigmentation, is that what you‘re saying?
ROMANO: It‘s about race and it‘s about patriotism. It‘s just a take on what the far right has always done. It‘s this whole thing about when they call—they said John Kerry looks French, and they questioned John McCain‘s commitment to his country. It‘s putting doubt in people‘s mind about people‘s loyalty and who they are.”
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32218822/ns/msnbc_t…
I agree with JMart. It's not even thinly-veiled. It's just sore-loser denial of the obvious. Pathetic. But at least no one is fooled.

An analysis of Hawaii's birth recording requirements around the time of Barack Obama's 1961 birth reveals several ways to generate a “Certificate of Birth,” including some that require no documentation other than the assertion of a adult
Another myth.
1. In the State of Hawaii, back in 1961, there were three different birth certificates that were obtainable:
a. If the birth was attended by a physician or mid wife, the attending medical professional was required to certify to the Department of Health the facts of the birth date, location, parents’ identities and other information. (See Section 57-8 & 9 of the Territorial Public Health Statistics Act in the 1955 Revised Laws of Hawaii which was in effect in 1961).
b. In 1961, if a person was born in Hawaii but not attended by a physician or mid wife, then, up to the first birthday of the child, an adult could, upon testimony, file a “Delayed Certificate”, which required endorsement on the Delayed Certificate of a summary statement of the evidence submitted in support of the acceptance for delayed filing, which evidence must be kept in a special permanent file. The statute provided that the probative value of the Delayed Certificate must be determined by the judicial or administrative body or official before whom the certificate is offered as evidence. (See Section 57-18, 19 & 20 of the Territorial Public Health Statistics Act in the 1955 Revised Laws of Hawaii which was in effect in 1961).
c. If a child born in Hawaii, for whom no physician or mid wife filed a certificate of live birth, and for whom no Delayed Certificate was filed before the first birthday, then a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth could be issued upon testimony of an adult including the subject person) if the Lieutenant Governor was satisfied that a person was born in Hawaii, provided that the person had attained the age of one year. (See Section 57-40 of the Territorial Public Health Statistics Act in the 1955 Revised Laws of Hawaii which was in effect in 1961).
2. In 1982, the vital records law was amended to create a fourth kind of birth certificate for children born outside of the Territory or State of Hawaii. HRS Chapter 338 was amended to add a new section authorizing the Director of the Department of Health to issue a birth certificate for a person NOT born in Hawaii either as a Territory or State, upon sufficient proof that the legal parents of such individual had declared the Territory or State of Hawaii as their legal residence for at least one year immediately preceding the birth of such child.

Obama may face charges in each of the 50 States and individual territories. The laws for falsifying election documents differ from state-to-state and to prevent Obama from standing trial in each individual state, the Supreme Court may turn the case over to the Attorney General of the United States for a singular prosecution. A new precedent will have to be established regarding this type of case and the precedent of what happens next will also need to be established

Sure, the law is clear. But clear to whom? Those who had any interest in the law to begin with.
For birthers, this is not about law. It is about denying that an election was legitimate because failure to do so would mean acknowledging that a black President is legitimate.
Hence the endless contortion and goalpost-moving. None of them ever read the law anyway. They just regurgitate something they got from a fringe website about a misconstrued law that used to apply in other countries before any of us was born. Good enough, as long as it muddies the water and perhaps dulls Obama's effectiveness.
Their goal is to bring the man down by any possible means. Having no legal means, they are prepared to invent their own facts if necessary, so that they can try him in the court of public opinion and hopefully weaken his ability to push his Presidential agenda.

Obama has not been proven to violate any law yet. This is a open story that just getting started because he refused to show that he is eligible. If proven not to be eligible, there will be prejury charges from Federal and State. If he showed his long form birth certificate and it show him to be eligible then that the end of the birther to get some transparency.

” Obama cannot release the long form since the DOH does not provide anymore copies of such”
Those listed as entitled to obtain a copy of an original birth certificate include the person born, or “registrant” according to the legal description from the governor's office, the spouse or parent of the registrant, a descendant of the registrant, a person having a common ancestor with the registrant, a legal guardian of the registrant, or a person or agency acting on behalf of the registrant.
Hawaii Department of Health would immediately release Obama's original birth certificate, provided Obama requested the document be released

The simple fact is that to be eligible to be POTUS…he needs to demostrate that he is eligible. If the short form of the birth certificate isn't enough because there are questions about the type of long form birth certificate then show it if there isn't anything to hide.
There are no legitimate questions about the COLB only pure speculations that will never end, regardless of the evidence

Thanks for re-quoting DiLorenzo. What you fail to appreciate, noogie, is that all interventions of poltroons, politicians, and suchlike “prehensile gentry” has invariably resulted – and with the implacability of Planck’s constant will henceforth and for all time invariably result – in catastrophic and ruinous disconnects between supply and demand.
The marketplace is good at reconciling demand (not “needs” but viable demand) with resources, both human and material.
Government… Er, not so good. Bloody awful, actually. Sure, the federal kleptocracy can just “Print another billion…” (Heinlein, The Door into Summer, 1956).
As one anonymous U.N. official once said, “Inflation is the one form of taxation that even the weakest government can impose upon its people.”
But making the “public option for healthcare insurance” (which is not “insurance” at all, but rather a pre-paid plan that the participants can use to seek all the care they can squeeze out of membership without paying out-of-pocket) available through the federal grab-ass excuse we suffer as a substitute for lawful government in these United States is a recipe for both rationing (“take a number, find a seat, and do try to keep that bleeding off the upholstery!”) and costs that will be piled on the narrowing productive sector of our economy.
Naturally, as Barry Soetoro has no part of his constituency in that productive sector (his “people” are all parasites, bureaucrats, and the sorts of Confused Wool who adhere to the “Liberal” stupidities of socialism), your Mombasa Messiah doesn’t give a rat’s ass about how thoroughly his asshole notion of “healthcare reform” is going to destroy the national economy.
Hell, that’s part of his previously avowed plan to create the sorts of “crises” that will advance the imposition of outright “Big Brother” IngSoc out of the book he masturbates to when Michelle is on the rag.
It’s not that I’m “interested in competition” on its lonesome, noogie, but rather that when government enters the lists as a “competitor,” there isn’t any competition at all.
Is there?

Arresting Gates for being 'belligerent' is indeed a stupid act, of course similarly Gates being belligerent was also a stupid act. No prejudging, by any logic, the actions of the officer were beyond reasonable.

That is correct, the COLB shows him born on US soil, and unless a plaintiff can show evidence to the contrary, they will have to accept the evidence of the COLB. Arguing that there is a mere possibility is not sufficient in court.
Of course, noone has yet been able to reach standing in court, for obvious Constitutional reasons.
I have something for you to ponder
In US v Rhodes 1866 Mr Justice Swayne sitting in the circuit court said All persons born in the allegiance of the king are natural born subjects and all persons born In the allegiance of the United States are natural born citizens. Birth and allegiance go together. Such Is the rule of the common law and It Is the common law of this country as well as of England We find no warrant for the opinion that this great principle of the common law has ever been changed In the United States. It has always obtained here with the same vigor and subject only to the same exceptions since as before the Revolution 1 Abb US 28 40 41 Fed Cas No 10.151
and
Moreover, if as is suggested, he [LaFayette ] was born to the advantages of a double allegiance, upon attaining his majority he exercised the right which was his of electing the government to which he would give allegiance, and that election related back to the time of his birth. Upon these authorities LaFayette had by birth what his father did not then have, citizenship of the United States and of the State of Massachusetts. This privilege neither needed nor had any strengthening by reflection from the subsequent naturalization of his father; he held it to the fullest extent in his own, and that the highest right.
and
But the subjection of the son to the father did not destroy, or even affect, the citizenship of the former; all the privileges and all the duties pertaining to that right were his; he might be called from under the father's authority to serve and defend the United States or the State of his residence.

Full quote
The Constitution does not in words say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners. Some authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their

Sorry!
Under law the COLB is NOT the best or highest evidence available and hence it is worthless.
Lets see the one Obama writes about in his book. Hopefully, it will have the name of the doctor, the birth hospital, witnesses to the birth and maybe a new born footprint to match to the adult footprint. It's as good as any finger print.
And, all Obama has to do is release his birth certificate he admits is in his possession. Clue: It's not a computer generated image made on a computer.
New information provides clues that Obama may have actually been born in Canada or the State of Washington. Who really knows when all the documents are sealed and made top secret.

Again you fail to support your case. The COLB is prima facie evidence which means that the plaintiff will have to show the evidence to be false. Now that the COLB's information has been validated, it will be hard for any plaintiff to argue that the information on the COLB is irrelevant.
There is no credible information as to Obama being born in Canada (that was a ruse) or the State of Washington. In the latter case, he would still be natural born.
It only keeps getting worst for the nation.
Yes we seem to be trailing in grammar and spelling ;-)
Of course, it only is getting worse because some people cannot accept the facts and instead feel it necessary to make them up.
Obama has released his birth certificate which is his COLB. And unlike you, most reasonable people will accept it now that it has been verified.

Except, Obama was born with allegiance to England and the Queen, Or Kenya. He was not born with allegiance to the US Constitution. There is no evidence he has ever sworn any allegiance to the Constitution prior to January 20, 2009
There is NO document of Declaration of Renunciation showing he renounced his British citizenship. No evidence exists that he did not swear allegiance to Kenya. We have to “trust” him. All Obama Kenya records are sealed.
How convenient for Obama.
You go ahead but I like real paper evidence especially when the person who wants “trust” is a Marxist liar.

Allegiance only refers to location of birth, referring to the fact that anyone born on US soil is under allegiance of the laws of our country.
It's important to understand these legal concepts.
“All persons born in the allegiance of the king are natural-born subjects, and all persons born in the allegiance of the United States are natural-born citizens. Birth and allegiance go together. .Such is the rule of the common law, and it is the common law of this country, as well as of England.
Birth and allegiance go together. The only exception are children born to invading military and Ambassadors. THe fact that Obama had dual allegiance, has no relevance.
And here we have a legal ruling about double allegiance and how the child can elect to continue US citizenship back to the time of his birth, making him a native and natural born citizen
In Rawle’s View of the Constitution of the United States, p. 86, it is said: “Every person born within the United Slates, its territories, or districts whether the parents are citizens or aliens is a natural born citizen within the sense of the Constitution, and entitled to all the rights and privileges appertaining to that capacity.” …Moreover, if as is suggested, he [LaFayette ] was born to the advantages of a double allegiance, upon attaining his majority he exercised the right which was his of electing the government to which he would give allegiance, and that election related back to the time of his birth. Upon these authorities LaFayette had by birth what his father did not then have, citizenship of the United States and of the State of Massachusetts.

GEE.
You really do have very good talking points. How many lawyers did it take to supply you with all of these court quotes.
In Minor v Happersett, 1874, the supreme Court also said that the theory that birth alone on US soil makes you “NATURAL BORN” remains just that, a THEORY and remains in DOUBT. Not much comfort in that for Obama
Compare that to the complete support by SCOTUS that it takes TWO US citizens AND birth on US soil to be “NATURAL BORN”
I'll go with the support given by SCOTUS to the historical definition to “natural born” citizens.
You believing that Obama is going to change that ,is your risk. I'm not going there.
I don't think the weight of evidence is on Obama's side. It's a tragedy for our nation that a narcissistic Marxist will put the nation through this. Maybe, a good civil war is really his desire.
First, he really has to prove he was actually born in the US. And, that he renounced his British citizenship by a Declaration of Renunciation, which I'm sure he has no proof. He was born with allegiance to Britain.

Which is that anyone born on US soil, is a natural born citizen regardless of the status of the parents.
Wow, I knew you would come around.
He was born in allegiance of the United States on US soil, that makes him by common law and US legal precedent, a natural born citizen and eligible to run for president.
As to your Happersett quote, does it not bother you that you were led to believe that it ruled in one way when in fact it had not?

Dipstick is realllly reaching on this one. The section dealing with renouncing citizenship is only for people who WANT to become British citizens AGAIN, IF THEY HAD FORMALLY RENOUNCED their citizenship and HAD been citizens.
BUT the most important part that the morons who continue this idiocy is the fact that one year after Obama was born in HAWAII, Kenya became a sovereign nations and as such NO ONE was considered a British subject or citizen or whatever.
They were now of either all Kenyan citizenship or dual citizenship depending upon the laws and rules of the other nation.
As such Kenya does not allow for dual citizenship after a minor becomes of the age of majority and as such Obama, because he refused to renounce his AMERICAN citizenship was no longer a dual citizen of ANY COUNTRY but one hundred percent AMERICAN CITIZEN.

You mistake “a few crazy racists who keep ignoring reality so that they can tell themselves that their once-glorious nation built entirely by white people (ha!) did not really vote for a black guy” for a nationwide movement of “citizens” who are against government.
It's just racists against being governed by, or Presided over by, a black guy. Time to fess up.
The only politicians “trembling” over the birthers are GOP politicians. That is why Michael Steele and John Boehner have gone on record saying that they are convinced beyond any doubt that President Obama is a natural born citizen. Those men have careers and ambitions. You just have frustration and dejection. Sucks to be you!

Naturalborn, it's painfully obvious that you just make things up, or pass along things you have read, without understanding or (gasp! heaven forfend!) cross-checking them.
Then, when nbc1 posts actual quotations from binding caselaw, it is equally painfully obvious that you are merely skimming the quoted text for some word or phrase that you can use to “distinguish” (legal term that I'm sure you didn't know but now can use, gratis) this birther situation from the caselaw.
Hence your absurd focus on the word “theory” in that case, to the exclusion of even bothering to read what the case is about or what its holding was.
You do the birther side no favors by arguing in this superficial fashion. It makes it appear as though there's nothing to the birther arguments but posturing, sore-loser whining, and trying to turn speculation and suspicion into evidence.
Well, come to think of it… go ahead and keep doing that. It's not as though the day shift of birthers has come up with a better plan.

By the way, Dave, you might want to update your Polarik files.
Loren of barackryphal has established that Polarik's true identity is Ronald Jay Pollard, a gentleman who is clearly no forensic document expert.
Polarik denied it at first; but now there is proof. Phil Berg has confirmed it in a submission in the Liberi v. Taitz case.

“Compare that to the complete support by SCOTUS that it takes TWO US citizens AND birth on US soil to be 'NATURAL BORN'”
Nowhere did the SCOTUS indicate that natural born citizenship can ONLY be acquired if both parents are U.S. citizens. All the court said in the part you quoted is that (obviously) when both your parents are U.S. citizens, you are a natural born citizen.
That does not mean or imply that this is the only route to natural born citizenship.
Either you are being disingenuous or you simply do not understand English well enough to keep up with nbc1 or others who are prepared to debate with facts instead of wishes.

I can only imagine that Naturalborn is an intensely disappointed racist or an underpaid Republican troll. I'm going with the former. Republican trolls have better talking points.

By the bye, have you figured out how to hit your Beloved Barry with a bill for all the services you're providing online? It's just that I can't imagine any shyster doing anything at all for free.
And anything done to support Barry Soetoro is the absolute antithesis of pro bono publico, ain't it?
Comment posted July 31, 2009 @ 3:36 am
No. I do not support that. The reason is simple. It overreaches. I would support it, for example, if it ended with the words “a copy of the candidate's birth certificate.”
Of course, the words “copy of the candidate's birth certificate” would need to be defined such that whatever the candidate's birth state gives out as an official copy would suffice for this proposed law.
The reason it overreaches is that every fact that is needed to evaluate whether a person is Constitutionally eligible for President can be determined from the birth certificate. You can tell a person's age and place of birth, from which anyone can tell whether they are 35 years old and a natural born citizen. You don't need anything else.
Thus, “together with such other documentation as may be necessary to establish that the candidate meets the qualifications…” is superfluous and ripe for misuse by political opponents. It would be defined differently in each case. Like, for instance, when the candidate is a black guy.
So, if you call this a “sanity check,” I would say I called your racist bluff, doofus. You don't need this silly proposed law. You already have candidate vetting and the Justice Dept. doing background checks for security clearances.

“Under law the COLB is NOT the best or highest evidence available and
hence it is worthless.”
Fail. Under Hawai'ian state law, the COLB is indeed the highest and best evidence available. That's why it says right on the face of the document that it is prima facie evidence of the facts asserted.
Take out your wallet. Look at a dollar bill. Read where it says “this note is legal tender for all debts, public and private.” Now go into McDonald's and tell them they have no right to give you paper money as change from your transaction.
You'll be at least as wrong as you are here, but at least you'll have a hamburger for your trouble. And some paper money given to you as change.

“The simple fact is that to be eligible to be POTUS…he needs to demostrate that he is eligible”
The simple fact is you won't let go of your conspiracy theory, and race is the only reason why you won't let go.
He proved he is eligible. You want to invent a conspiracy and involve Hawai'i's Republican Governor and make up nonsense about Britain and ignore settled Supreme Court authority and pretend that there's some controversy among reasonable people as to the authenticity of the COLB, let alone quibble over whether it is “worthless” as you contend, or “prima facie evidence,” as it says right on its face.
I get that. You're in a state of denial. Next comes anger. Then fear. Then bargaining. Then acceptance.
Too bad you have nothing of any value. I would have enjoyed the bargaining phase. Looks like I'll just have to look forward to watching you experience fear.

Inasmuch as stevie – who is a True Believer in the Eric Hoffer sense – will never give you a straight-up response on why the word “racist” is only a term which the “Liberal” (progressive / socialist / fascist / Tranzi / authoritarian, pick any six) is empowered to use in the discussion of the perfectly natural tendency of human beings to see people “like us” (Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Polish, Persian, Gujarati, Kikuyu, Ibo, Hausa, Texican, Noo Yawkuh, Porteño, Boricua, what have you) in a more accepting light than they do people “not like us.”
Little stevie wants to mask his own decidedly racist predispositions behind a facade of “political correctness,” and you're no more going to get him out into the open than you could get him off his knees were he to find himself suddenly in the presence of his Mombasa Messiah in the Men's Room.

“There is no evidence he has ever sworn any allegiance to the Constitution prior to January 20, 2009″
Senate confirmation. 2004. But beyond that your whole line of argument is irrelevant. You have it backward. You don't need to look for evidence that he swore allegiance to Kenya. You need to look for evidence that he renounced his allegiance to the U.S. Well, strike that. YOU need to look for a library or a tv channel besides Fox News. But that's nit-picking.
He had dual citizenship with U.S. and Kenya. By operation of law, his Kenyan citizenship expired when he did not formally renounce his U.S. citizenship at age 21. You have no proof that he renounced his U.S. citizenship, so let's not start down that path.
He did not need to take any affirmative step to maintain his U.S. citizenship. It is his unless he formally renounced it before his 21st birthday.
Nor did he need to say anything at all to the nation of Great Britain. That is absurd on its face. Great Britain has nothing to do with his citizenship (and has not since 1963, when Kenya became independent).
If you “like real paper evidence” then you should be pleased as punch. Obama's COLB can be printed out right in your living room, right from your home computer. You can print out 100 copies and roll around giggling on them. Because you're so tickled about the idea of having a black President, right?
Enjoy!

LOL, I couldn't agree more. But the context here is very convincing. Phil has been saying for some time that he was going to call Polarik as a witness in Liberi v. Taitz, so it's been known that Berg was privy to Polarik's true identity.
Now Berg has filed an emergency motion claiming that Linda Starr Belcher outed Polland (whom Berg acknowledges to be Polarik) in order to intimidate him into backing out of testifying for Berg.

You can post whatever cranky bullshit you want at the top of the post, or in reply to someone else. That's not in question.
What is in question is what sort of person would feel compelled to persist in communicating directly with a person who made clear that he wished not to do so.
But it's not a difficult question to answer. It's the same sort of person who writes absurd threats about the President, dollops an extra syllable onto every word, seeks to obfuscate the meaning of his sentences with inverted syntax and obscure quotes, and manages to offend people across party, gender, sexual orientation, racial, economic, handicapped-status, and species of fauna lines.
Pathetic. You want to justify your lonely need to keep butting in where you're not welcome. Apparently the list of basic things your mother never taught you is longer than I suspected.

Show me the black ladies you're inventing.
Then I'll tell you that they're paranoid conspiracy theorists.
But first you have to show them to me here. Not links to the same website you always hawk. Not an invitation to google something.
You just make shit up and act like it doesn't stink.
Tell me, in all seriousness, and then I'll leave you alone if you like, who is your target audience? Who do you post these things for? Do you suspect that someone comes here without any opinion at all, reads your post, and no other posts, and goes on about their day, persuaded by what you write? I'm not being facetious, I would really like to know.
Because I find it insulting, frankly, and I think anyone who, like me, has at least average intelligence would find it insulting, to read the things you write in an attempt to distort the reality we all experience. Each of us can read other news websites. Each of us has a television set or knows someone who does.
So it makes me doubt that you have a good-faith belief in what you are writing. And when the subject is the sitting Commander in Chief, that is offensive on many levels to reasonable people of all political stripes. When it's the first black President, your lack of a good faith basis (evidenced by your failure to cite credible authority or respond seriously when the same is posed to you) points strongly (I would argue, conclusively) toward a motive of racism.
Why else would you fail to recognize as legitimate an election outcome that cannot reasonably be disputed?
People beat the ACORN dead horse for a while, until most of us realized the difference between alleged voter registration fraud and actual voter fraud. Mickey Mouse might be registered 83 times, but no one named Mickey Mouse ever shows up to vote.
So people who are merely against Democrats have other arguments to make. Only racists choose the birther argument.
Or so it reasonably appears to many people, including the majority of journalists who have appeared on television or written articles to discuss it. My post from earlier today quoting a portion of Hardball is partial proof.
I haven't tried to insult you here, but I did pose some direct, serious questions. I therefore expect you to ignore this or respond by telling me to look at the steady drip of accusations from fringe racists.

What, you talking about your own (and your fellow fellahin) top-posting just to snark at Moi and not to address the issues raised by Mr. Weigel in his various articles here?
Look, when I pull a respondent's post and bring it – in toto, though I succumb often to the temptation to correct orthographical and grammatical errors – upstairs, I do so because the sequence is squeezing off the page on my CRT, and I believe it to be easier for other readers as well as myself to offer a more expansive display on the Web page. What other cause warrants such an inconvenience?
As for “communicating directly” with you, little stevie, even given the obvious evidence that you are neither an honest respondent nor interested in subjects apart from concealing the fraudulence of your Messiah – such as the proper roll of government in civil society, a topic I essayed to engage you upon – do not mistake an effort to hose you down and off this Web site (as you and your fellow Obamaphiles have obviously attempted to do to me) with any sort of concession to the non-existent benignity or legitimacy of Barry Soetoro.
He's a malicious jack-in-office at best (if “best” is a word that one can use in discussing such a flagrant socialist), and as much to be opposed for the sake of the country and the Constitution as if he was leading an invading army across our beaches and toward our population centers.

Well, not only “annoying,” little stevie, but obviously really bad for your physical and emotional well-being. You not only need an up-titration on your neuroleptic chemotherapy but possibly something to blunt your hypertension before you pop something beyond those blood vessels you've got hemorrhaging across your sclera. Not having lab values on you, or the chance to examine you physically, I hesitate to suggest anything as straightforward as renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade or even beta blockers (which can exacerbate the depression from which you're also obviously suffering), but I can recommend consultation with your personal physician if you have one.
If not, your psychiatrist can easily refer you.
And you're not “having a conversation” on this Web page with a co-religionist (you actually think you have any “friend” here or anywhere?) but posting on a kind of bulletin board, in the open and without either privacy or the expectation thereof.

Ok. I looked at your two posted links.
The first one, at YOUR website, is to an article posted by YOU describing one Carol Swain, identified prominently in the article's title as a “Vanderbilt Expert” but who has no expertise of any discernible kind.
She explains that because few people ascend to Presidential heights, they should be transparent about their public life.
Two paragraphs, then she prominently lists her MEDIA AVAILABILITY. “Carol Swain is available for media interviews at…”
Really credible.
Better, in fact, than the second link you pointed me to, also on YOUR website, about one Frances Rice, who just HAPPENS to be President of the Black Republicans.
Gee, any chance that the Republicans might be willing to increase the love shown to the President of the Black Republicans if said black President will sling mud at the black POTUS?
ANY chance that the President of the Black Republicans would be willing to repeat tired cliches and misconstrued statements from the 2008 campaign? Because that's what she did.
Fail.
I looked at your sources. I gave my honest opinion.
If either of those things was the bombshell you'd like it to be, then why did YOU have to post it? Why not get Fox News to run with it? Don't tell me they wouldn't pay attention to black people who want to bash Obama.
Could it be that even Fox wouldn't take these people seriously? Is that even possible?
I don't know why you're worried about who I think is welcome here. I never said anyone was not welcome to post here or anywhere. You might be mistaking my instruction to Tuci78 that I no longer wanted to communicate with him as applying to you. Unless you're Tuci78 I fail to see how you could have confused that, but c'est la vie.

The man is guilty of High Treason and both Howard Dean & Hellary know it.

I'm sorry, Gunny, but your years in the Corps really aren't a basis upon which to predicate an opinion on the constitutional qualification of Barry Soetoro to have run for or to serve in the office of President of these United States.
You need to attack this problem as if you had never served, as if your training and experience as a non-commissioned officer in the Marine Corps had not happened, save as that experience and training might have sharpened your acuity with regard to spotting fraudulent feathermerchants and enemies of the Constitution like Barry.

Geezushchrist Gunny (If that is truly what you are, so many “vets” lie about who they are as though being a vet gives them more legitimacy)
BUT you are giving the Marines a bad name.
Just admit you are racist and hate having a black man in the White House. THAT at least would be honest. But your lunatic ravings about your beliefs, ALL which have been debunked, just show you are as mentally unbalanced as the other birthers on this site.
You obviously have never bothered to actually read the laws of the various countries involved.
Have never bothered to listen to anyone but El Rushbo, or The FoxNewsWhoreHouse.
And the thing is your irrational hatred for a black man in the White House shows you not only can't accept him in the White House but all the proof of his citizenship which you pointedly ignore shows YOU DON'T WANT TO BE CONVINCED.
Which makes anything you say, completely based upon racism and ignorance.

To the True Patriots,
The Obot Robots wish you to believe that the Framers of the constitution placed the precise words of “Natural born citizen” in Article II so it could be possible someday in the future for the Son of a British Marxist father from Kenya who never swore any allegiance to the US, would somehow make a great commander of the American armies.
To join their line of thinking you would have to leave all of your common sense behind to join them in believing that just being born on US soil ( maybe Hawaii) allows one eligibility to command the American armies.
NOT!!
Lets suppose two Chinese communist visiting the US or Osama bin Laden having a Son and later runs for president. The Obot Robots see no problem with that theory and that the Son of Osama bin Laden is actually a “NATURAL BORN CITIZEN” by birth on US soil only. Forget his DNA. They worry NOT about the Son's allegiance to his terrorist father and being an enemy of American.
It's just a crazy theory and unfortunately only SCOTUS will able to define it for America. I'm looking for a 4-3 victory at SCOTUS for common sense and our Constitution. Please God, make it so.
It's really a sad day for America that such thinking even exists in this country. Very sad!!
It's also very sad that we allowed a very narcissistic Marxist and British citizen to be elected.
It's the first time in our history that a British citizen is a US president. Sad, sad, sad.

SCOTUS has argued that these children are not just US Citizens, but also natural born per Common Law tradition.
If you believe that SCOTUS will address the issue, why have they continuously rejected cert to any of the lawsuits? For obvious reasons I'd say: the plaintiffs lack standing and the Supreme Court lacks authority to resolve this clearly political question. And yes, it is a political question since the Constitution reserves the powers to qualify the President to Congress and similarly reserves the powers to remove a President to Congress through the concept of impeachment.

Obama does NOT need a idiot piece of paper stating a declaration of renunciation.
When Kenya became a sovereign nation ALL Kenyans became citizens of their own country. AND all British citizenry became null and void.
OR are you saying ALL Kenyans ARE STILL BRITISH SUBJECTS?
So can you prove that all Kenyan's are British subjects?
That all of them have to have that idiotic claim of denounciation or they are all STILL BRITISH SUBJECTS?
Do you STILL not know how to read.
I posted the link to the Kenyan constitution that specifically states that all Kenyans are now KENYAN CITIZENS and not British subjects when Kenya became an independent country of it's own.
OR are you going to claim that any Kenyan who didn't send in one of those idiotic letters is STILL a British subject?

I don't know how you know what robots think. I'm certain you don't speak on behalf of any robots, Obot or otherwise.
No one has argued on this thread or any other on this site that the framers intended anything about any son of any British Marxist.
You keep inventing nonsense to argue against.
In the course of so doing, you studiously avoid recognizing reality.
Quote someone's actual words, like I always do with yours, before demonstrating what is wrong with the quoted (not horribly distorted and loaded paraphrase) words.
For instance, it is my contention that the U.S. government long ago gave authority to the states, via the Tenth Amendment, to make any and all laws that do not conflict with powers given to the people or reserved for the federal government itself. The laws states are allowed to make for themselves include without limitation the right to decide what form of birth certificate the respective states will use, what information should be included on the same, and to whom such information can be released.
It is also my contention that fundamental U.S. citizenship law provides that if you are born in America, you are an American citizen, and furthermore you are a natural-born American citizen, no matter who your parents are or what their citizenship status is.
These contentions cannot be seriously disputed.
That is why all other birthers bend over backward to demonstrate that either of the contentions does not apply here. They argue, without evidence, that the first does not apply because, they claim (again, without evidence) that the COLB is forged. They argue, without evidence, that Obama was born outside the U.S.
No one but you is arguing, at present, that even if Obama was born in Hawaii, he is not Constitutionally-eligible. Everyone else, whether on your side or the other side, thinks that a valid birth certificate is necessary and sufficient (we just disagree on whether it has yet been provided); for your argument the birth certificate has nothing to do with eligibility.
Many are arguing that they will still not be satisfied with him if he was actually born in Hawaii, but instead will want to continue looking at his school and teaching records, etc. Those people are more honest than you are. They do not claim they are entitled to see the other records because the Constitution mandates such a review. They just don't like Obama and want to find some way to trip him up or show that he's “not one of us.”
You, on the other hand, appear determined to go down with the ship. Too bad the ship is a submarine with a screen door. Obama is not a British citizen by virtue of his father's pre-1963 nationality.
You still have yet to post one credible link supporting that absurdity, or respond honestly to any post presenting you with facts or argument. nbc1's fact-heavy posts come immediately to mind.
At least you're still here. Who would I ridicule without you around? Besides the other birthers, I mean.

I can ask loaded questions too.
Obama hasn't had to “put up with all this nonsense.” He's drinking beer with law-breaking cops and non-law-breaking Harvard professors, when he's not advocating for his health care plan. Don't you watch the news?
He's not being put to any “legal expense” either. Birther lawsuits have been tossed as frivolous, and in each instance, the frivolous plaintiff has been ordered to pay Obama's legal fees incurred in defending against the frivolous suit.
Those are indeed simple questions. They are disingenuous and loaded, but they are simple to disprove.

That's a good one. I needed a laugh. Thanks.
The idea that a man who:

(2) hugging George W. Bush, the man who orchestrated a smear campaign against McCain in the 2000 Republican primary by push-polling people to tell them that McCain's adopted Bangaldeshi daughter is actually his illegitimate black baby, would somehow shy away from speaking out against a man he
(3) instructed Palin to accuse of “palling around with terrorists” based on membership on an educational board founded by and carefully watched over by Walter Annenberg, who happened to be Reagan's close friend and Reagan's ambassador to Great Britain,
is pretty damned funny.
It's so funny, in fact, that I'm willing to overlook the fact that you're lying through your teeth. What a crock your claim of service to this country is. How stupid would we have to be to believe anything you say?
You, unlike your accusations of McCain, clearly have no problem with looking like a sore loser.

I know, I know. You don't know what a conjunction is. I'll give you a hint. “a” “an” and “the” are the most common ones.
Comment posted July 31, 2009 @ 6:34 pm
You're still loading the question.
He DID show his birth certificate. In Hawaii, that means a COLB. He posted it online a year ago.
So stop with the nonsense. Nothing difficult about that question at all. Nothing honest about it either.
I don't know, or care, what you think the two possibilities are why Obama has not done something further to appease you. “Niether” of your possibilities will have the slightest grounding in fact or law. I will go out on a limb and say so in advance.
Since you asked me nicely, I will tell you what I think.
Obama is in a win-win situation, and his opponents are in a lose-lose situation.
I learned a long time ago, probably in my first year out of law school, that when the judge agrees with your written argument, keep your mouth shut in oral argument. You don't need to say anything to win the motion. All you can do by talking at the hearing is give the judge a reason to change his or her mind and rule against you. I cannot tell you how many times I've stood up at oral argument and said “My position is set forth in my papers, Your Honor. Subject to being allowed to respond to any new argument from opposing counsel, I have nothing further.” And then gone on to win the motion.
Obama has produced more evidence of his birthplace than any other President has ever been asked to do. That evidence has been authenticated by the Hawai'i Department of Health, with approval from a Republican Governor.
The House unanimously approved a resolution that indicated in prominent part that he was born in Hawaii.
Factcheck.org long ago authenticated the COLB. So did World Net Daily. You've got both ends of the credibility spectrum covered.
So Obama has nothing to worry about as far as the birthers go. They just soak up news coverage that otherwise might go toward criticism of his POLICIES, which he would then have to respond to. But no reasonable person believes that he somehow snuck his way into the Oval Office on the back of a 48 year old, 1,000 person international conspiracy. For anyone who had doubts, the birth announcements in the newspapers put the doubts to rest.
So Obama gets to be Presidential and above the fray, while GOP representatives get videotaped sprinting away from journalists' questions for fear of alienating the Republican base on the one hand, or jettisoning their chances at being re-elected or elected to higher office, on the other.
The longer this drags out, and the more Crazy Eileen and her colleagues wave ziplocked bagged birth certificates around, the more the credibility of ANY attack on Obama is weakened.
Smart Republicans realize this. That is why Bill O'Reilly, Ann Coulter, John Boehner, Jim Demint, and Michael Steele have said that there's no doubt whatsoever that Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural born citizen. These people want to maintain credibility and have a stake in being taken seriously. They want to hit Obama on health care, the economy, perceived softness about law enforcement, wise Latinas on the bench, anything but birther nonsense.
They know that Orly Taitz, Phil Berg, and the rest of the carnival act are really harming the Republicans' credibility and perceived seriousness.
You've got unemployment and health care on everyone's mind when they aren't talking about our two wars, and you want to talk about the President's birth certificate? Yeah. You just keep saying that and watch what happens to Republicans in the mid-terms.
Meanwhile, Obama is drinking beer with Gates and Crowley. They probably laughed about how silly the birthers look, when by comparison 3 guys drinking a beer in the afternoon get TONS of fawning press coverage.
Who the hell is following Crazy Eileen around, besides to get more footage of how crazy she is?
Anything else, lewdsax?

Obama doesn't say that. Kenya says that. It's their law.
If Obama was a Kenyan citizen, do you know how quickly some dirt-poor Kenyan would have been bribed into unsealing the allegedly sealed records that prove it? And how proud would the bribed person be, to be the Kenyan man who showed the black world that the most powerful man in the world is Kenyan?
You don't think through the gibberish you post. It's always false and it rarely would make sense even if true.

A “certified” copy of his “original birth certificate” is not available, both by law and by logic.
Original records are not released, pursuant to state law.
The original paper birth certificate's information was stored electronically a long time ago. They don't use paper originals anymore; they just maintain the “original vital records” electronically.
The cost of a certified copy of his birth certificate is much less “that” $1,000,000. Hard to be cheaper than free. You can print it out yourself. Many websites have shown images of the COLB by now. Hard to miss it.
Underfunding public education in the Bible Belt is a sad joke on the Republican people.

No. I didn't mean any of those ludicrous things.
Henry Louis Gates is most decidedly neither Marxist, a Black Panther, nor a “racial agitator.” He is a Harvard professor. He is not left over from the 1960's. Harvard is not a Marxist school.
I don't fantasize about any plaintiffs. I fantasize about women.
You've seen my posts, and those of others, on this very thread showing that frivolous plaintiffs have been ordered to repay the Obama lawyers' fees at the conclusions of the birther cases. There are even citations to the very orders that require payment. I won't re-read this whole thread for you.
But I will direct you to an article from Politico back in March 2009 that discusses the issue. First an excerpt, then a link to the full article, then I'll get back to discussing why you're wrong.
“The White House is, presently, ignoring the birth certificate questions, having released an official copy of the Hawaii certificate during the presidential campaign. The press aide once tasked with quashing viral rumors, Ben LaBolt, no longer follows the fringe. But lawyers for the Democratic National Committee and for Obama have been steadily batting down a stream of lawsuits, winning motions to dismiss the suits in courts from Pennsylvania to Hawaii, from the state level to the United States Supreme Court.
To believers, the legal engagement itself is evidence that something's afoot.
'[Obama] is spending hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of dollars to keep this information from getting out,' said Gary Kreep, the lawyer representing former presidential candidate Alan Keyes, who sued Obama in California to prevent the state from certifying its election results.
Keyes recently called the citizenship issue 'the greatest crisis this nation has ever seen' and warned of 'chaos, confusion and civil war.'
Kreep has been battling Obama's California lawyer, Fredric Woocher, to release the president's records from Occidental College on the theory that they might provide information about his citizenship.
Woocher has threatened to seek sanctions against Kreep for pursuing the case.
'This suit, like all of the others that have been filed challenging Obama's qualifications for the Presidency, is frivolous,' he said in an email to POLITICO, adding that he is, in fact, working pro bono. 'There is absolutely no truth to the stories about the untold millions supposedly being paid to us,' he said.”
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0209/19450…
Ok, naturalborn. Got all that? So I showed you where the genesis of the plucked-from-thin-air claim about “hundreds of thousands, if not millions” of dollars in fees came from. It was the lawyer representing Alan Keyes.
And you have the guy on the other side, representing Obama FOR FREE. He completely shut down the nonsense about some huge legal bill being generated. The article says the Obama lawyers win with motions to dismiss. Doesn't cost much to defend a suit that gets tossed out as frivolous. That's why people devote time to the case pro bono. It doesn't take much time and allows you to get exposure as a decent person.
In fact, Obama's lawyer mentioned the threat of sanctions against the appropriately-named Kreep if Kreep continues with the frivolous lawsuits.
Which brings us back to my point. Sanctions against the attorney for filing frivolous suits comes from Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 5 and also Rule 11. But the judge has the power to order the losing party to pay the prevailing party's attorney's fees in many situations, including where the suit was filed without merit.
Which is what has happened in the cases I referred to in the post you misconstrued.
Oh, by the way, you really should look at that Politico article I cited. It explains how the conservatives are running in terror for fear of being associated with you birthers:
“Conservatives see that hazard.
The conservative talk show host Michael Medved recently referred to the movement's leaders as “crazy, nutburger, demagogue, money-hungry, exploitative, irresponsible, filthy conservative imposters” who are “the worst enemy of the conservative movement.”
“It makes us look weird. It makes us look crazy. It makes us look demented. It makes us look sick, troubled, and not suitable for civilized company,” he mourned.
One of the lead anti-Obama lawyers, Orly Taitz, a California dentist with a degree from an online law school, promptly threatened to sue Medved for defamation. Taitz, whose clients include soldiers challenging Obama's citizenship, has called on her blog's readers to “fight these communist Nazi thugs and hoodlums that took over our government,” and told POLITICO that the wide refusal to take her case seriously is “totalitarian.”"
Weird, crazy, demented, sick, troubled, not suitable for civilized company, crazy, nutburger, money-hungry, exploitative? Wow, naturalborn! Someone ought to call out the conservative movement for using ad hominem attacks against you birthers!!!
All I do is call you dumbasses. I let you off easy.

Obama says he lost his Kenya citizenship by not pledging allegiance to Kenya.
Yes. Such is the law.
He has sealed all of his records in Kenya and is helped by the Kenya murderer and his Marxist friend Odinga.
More nonsense.
He did not renounce his British citizenship as required by British law.
Nonsense and irrelevant to his US natural born status. He clearly elected to continue his natural born birthright.
From Dr C's excellent site
Obama’s British citizenship was short-lived. On Dec. 12, 1963, Kenya formally gained its independence from the United Kingdom. Chapter VI, Section 87 of the Kenyan Constitution specifies that:
1. Every person who, having been born in Kenya, is on 11th December, 1963 a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies or a British protected person shall become a citizen of Kenya on 12th December, 1963…
2. Every person who, having been born outside Kenya, is on 11th December, 1963 a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies or a British protected person shall, if his father becomes, or would but for his death have become, a citizen of Kenya by virtue of subsection (1), become a citizen of Kenya on 12th December, 1963.
As a citizen of the UKC who was born in Kenya, Obama’s father automatically received Kenyan citizenship via subsection (2). So given that Obama qualified for citizen of the UKC status at birth and given that Obama’s father became a Kenyan citizen via subsection (1), it follows that Obama did in fact have Kenyan citizenship after 1963. So The Rocky Mountain News was at least partially correct.
But the paper failed to note that the Kenyan Constitution prohibits dual citizenship for adults. Kenya recognizes dual citizenship for children, but Kenya’s Constitution specifies that at age 21, Kenyan citizens who possesses citizenship in more than one country automatically lose their Kenyan citizenship unless they formally renounce any non-Kenyan citizenship and swear an oath of allegiance to Kenya.
And no, one cannot be de facto and Usurper at the same time. Familiarize yourself with the law.

What? And, be murdered by Obama's friend Odinga. He already has killed many thousands of his countrymen. And, they didn't even try to release Obama's birth certificate.
There is a $100,000 internet award for anyone who witnessed Obama's birth. Maybe, you qualify.
I don't think the reward is known in Kenya since it is a Marxist controlled country. So far no one in the entire world has claimed the reward. I just wonder why no one remembers the birth of a US president. It's really strange. Isn't it?

Oh rogerrramjet, you silly little minion. Just explain why Obama prefers to put up with all this nonsense and legal expense rather than release his official birth certificate. Its a very simple question, but not one the likes of you can answer, I'm sure.
First of all, the legal expenses appear to be minimal. He was awarded $540 in legal cost when Keyes lost Keyes v Bowen lawsuit. Furthermore, the COLB is the only document Obama can obtain from Hawaii and is legally binding and shows him born in Hawaii.

It would be really cool if it had the newborns footprint so we can compare it to Obama's footprint.

Look, if you want to base your inability to accept the words of Hawai'ian officials on your professed inability to tell movies with “totally real like” graphics from reality, that's your problem.
I can help you with your problem, though. Here's a handy way to tell the differrence: If you're sitting in a movie theater and it happens on the screen, it's a movie. If you're watching Fox News on your television, it's rea….oh bad example.

Well in that case, you're out of luck. Hawaii only has birth certificates which do no longer name the doctor etc. Of course, it is still certified and has the raised seal and signature just like the COLB factnet showed in both OCR scans as well as photographs.
It seems that you expect the President to send a properly certified copy to every US citizen? That's a bit silly.
So why do you reject the fact that the COLB, both the scan and the photographs show Obama born in Hawaii? And why do you reject that the Hawaiian officials have confirmed said Hawaiian birth?
Is there some reason you do not like the facts? I can understand but to make up fictional stories about citizenship is not going to help you in light of the known facts.
So what avenues do you have left other than waiting to 2012? You can try the courts but they would reject your attempt due to lack of standing. You could try Quo Warranto but Congress explicitly rejected that Quo Warranto can be used to remove a President.
Not many options left…

Now. Now. Let's stay with truthful statements,
He legal fees are in excess of $1,000,000 per FEC.
Hawaii can provide a “CERTIFIED” copy of his birth certificate OR he could release the original birth certificate he notes in his book that's in his possession. I'm really curious who the doctor was who delivered the ONE, the name of the hospital and the real witnesses to the birth.
As mentioned earlier, there is a $100,000 reward to anyone who witnessed the birth.
No takers to date. Maybe you saw the birth. You seem so confident as to his birth place.
Don't be shy. Step up and claim your reward. If you have birth pictures, that's even better.
No one has seen the newborn birth pictures with father and mother either. They are under Obama seal also. They did have cameras in 1961 and the hospitals assisted with photos.
Of course, Kenya hospitals may not have had cameras. Maybe, that's the problem.

Yes. He was born on US soil, subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, and under allegiance to the United States by virtue of being held to the laws of the United States. That's the concept of Jus Soli. Birth and allegiance go hand in hand. Now I understand that you have misunderstood the concept of allegiance and if you look at the historical documents you will come to realize that the addition of allegiance was used to exclude children born to invading military and ambassadors who were not under allegiance of the US because of their immunity to US laws.
Glad to help resolve that confusion.

Partially true. The legal fees of his organization are in excess of $1m but it is unknown how much of this was spent, if any, on defending him in court from these meritless lawsuits. In fact we know that Obama was awarded $540 in cost in Keyes v Obama when Keyes lost in court. That seems to be a far cry from $1m and for good reasons, in many of these 40+ lawsuits that were lost by the plaintiffs, Obama was not even a defendant.
What we do know is that Obama was born in Hawaii.

“He legal fees are in excess of $1,000,000 per FEC.”
First, re-read before posting so that you stop with silly grammatical errors.
Then, stop conflating two distinct notions.
His campaign's overall legal fees are not to be confused with any amount spent defending birther suits.
We've all seen the links on this thread to the “April Quarterly” report of all expenditures, one line for each – name of payee and amount spent in the undefined quarter – that shows a sum of several hundred thousand dollars going to the large law firm Perkins Coie.
That expenditure has not been itemized by matter or by time spent. There's no indication as what any of the fee was billed for.
So the only reasonable thing to do is compare the amount to something comparable — what did OTHER presidential campaigns spend on legal fees?
You post no evidence for any of your claims, but this one is especially easy to disprove.
Unless you have some proof that Obama spent money on legal fees specific to defending against birther suits, your point gets carried away by the hot air of all your wacky accusations.

Just the opposite!
We can not tell Britain on how to treat their subjects. If you are born a British citizen, the US can not interfere in their laws. Obama could apply to be a naturalized US citizen. No documents exist or shown that he ever applied for US citizenship.
There's also no documents that Obama did not over stay his student visa from Indonesia which makes him like the Saudis who destroyed our Twin Towers on 9/11. He would be an illegal alien in the US who over stayed their visas.
We certainly can not make British citizens “NATURAL BORN US citizens.

OH you silly rabbit lewdsax.(Interesting name a lewd sax player?)
FIRST of all, he HAS released the official BC that the State of Hawaii gives to anyone born in Hawaii as requested. It's no different for my cousin born there than it was for Obama.
Just because YOU and the other Flat Earth Birthers don't think it's official, it doesn't makes what you think so.
I have YET to see a single legal brief filed by any Obama legal team member saying they want the judge to block release of whatever it is the Birthers such as yourself, want to see. All they are doing is what they are SUPPOSED TO DO.
Which is tell the court why the petitioner has NO STANDING to make those demands.
FURTHER no judge has the ability to tell Hawaii to produce something that is AGAINST HAWAII's laws unless the petitioner has STANDING to make that order happen. Obama's attorney's are just doing their job by filing what I am sure is now just routine paperwork.
What you and the other birthers won't admit, and maybe you can just answer this simple question.
WHY should a president who has satisfied to the legal standards as set down by the Constitution of the United States have to jump and kow tow to every little pissant like yourself everytime someone says “I don't believe you, you have to keep doing what I say until I feel like it's what I WANT to believe”?
You must be new to this discussion or else just another typical birther of whom NOTHING the president presents will make you morons happy.
As Oily Taint said on Colbert NOTHING will satisfy her unless Obama's father comes back to life and proves he is a U.S. citizen or some such nonsense. I mean the woman is an idiot.
So answer the question. WHY should the president jump everyone one of you nutjobs demands something as silly and stupid as presenting a BC YOU WILL ACCEPT, when the rest of the world accepts what the STATE OF HAWAII says is real and official.
You DID see the news release yesterday didn't you?
The one where the head of the Department of Health for the State of Hawaii said they had re-examined the birth certificate in their files and said ONCE AGAIN that Obama was born IN HAWAII and is a U.S. Citizen.
So why don't you just admit something else.
You hate Obama
You hate a black man in the White House.
You are a sore loser because your side didn't win.
And at the heart of it all YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE CONVINCED.

You forgot to mention the Quo Warranto statues have been amended by Congress several times since 1878.
I believe it only applies to the District of Columbia and US officers in that city, which includes the US president. It does not apply to states covered by the 10th amendment.
If the US Attorney General Eric Holder had a honest patriot bone in his body, he would start Quo Warranto on Obama. He is a political hack and not a patriot. He forgot who John Mitchell was in history.

You'll enjoy reading this, naturalborn. It comes from the same Politico article I cited and linked above:
“Most of the lawsuits seek documents and express dissatisfaction with the State of Hawaii's refusal to release for public inspection Obama's original birth certificate rather than the notarized copy typically issued. The state's governor, Linda Lingle, has attested to the authenticity of the birth certificate, and Hawaii law forbids its release; Kreep blamed Democratic control of Hawaii for the refusal to release it. (Lingle is a Republican.)”
So you've got the Republican Governor putting her credibility on the line by attesting to the birth certificate's authenticity, naturalborn. Hawaiian law forbids its release.
Where do you go from there? Oh yeah, my bad, back to the British stuff. Sorry, I should have known that by now.
One question before you go. Exactly what oaths were violated on Jan. 8, 2009? What happened on Jan. 8th? Was it an American Grand Jury meeting to protest the upcoming Presidential Inauguration on January 20, 2009? Could you post a link? I'd like to see the AGJ costumes.

Simple! SCOTUS likes to play legal chess games with our lives.
US citizens also have the right to bring Quo Warranto on Obama in courts since the current US Attorney is a coward.
The previous US Attorney in the District of Columbia recently resigned for “family” reasons and didn't start Quo Warranto on Obama.
He really read about the suicide of the Fannie Mae executive who hanged himself but also had bullet holes in his head. How's that work?
As you surely know by your talking points from Obama, there are at least three cases in courts today. One will be heard by a Marine judge in his California court. All playing the chess game demanded by SCOTUS in January, 2009. How sad to take so long for a simple but serious question about Obama being eligible to be president.

You don't understand what the word “usurper” means if you think someone can be elected into a position and thus be a usurper.
You can be elected into a position you are not legally entitled to occupy. That makes you a de facto office holder. But not a usurper.
A usurper swims across a moat, kills your guards, rapes your wife and hangs your head on the door as a knocker. He doesn't pretend the people chose him. He has no color of title.
Ok, so I could have made the point less graphically. But you already said you cannot tell the difference between reality and movies where the “graphics are totally real like.” So I figured I'd put it in terms you could more readily understand.

Unless you think there's going to be some kind of baseball-card type collector's market for birth certificates, the doctor/hospital are irrelevant to anyone but the doctors and hospitals themselves, who might have some sort of contest for bragging rights.
“I delivered 48 babies this month. Second best in the whole month, according to the newspaper!”
“My hospital of choice is the one that delivers the fewest black babies. I check the records in the newspaper every day to see where the black ones are born. Gotta stay away from those people. I want quality care.”
Really, all you need to know is who the person is, what state they were born in, and upon what date.

I have proven previously that AristotletheHun isn't exactly a master philosopher.
I will now prove that Village Idiot-elect naturalborn deserves immediate and unanimous confirmation to the nominated post.
1 – Further down the thread, naturalborn steps over his own feet apologizing to Tuci78:
“If I hit you with friendly fire, I'm sorry. Sometimes it's really hard to tell the Obot Robots from the true patriots.” naturalborn to Tuci78
2 – Tuci responds consistently with all of his posts, blasting Obama and his supporters:
“Still dunno about his “British born” quality, but one thing I'm getting more and more into reliable appreciation is the fact that calling our “poverty pimp” faux POTUS by his proper adoptive Indonesian name – Barry Soetoro – really drives these Obamaphiles 'round and 'round their personal gerbil cages until the hinges start to rattle.
Jeez, just looka them squeal!” — Tuci78 responding to naturalborn
3 – naturalborn accuses Tuci78 of being an Obot, to which Tuci's response says it all:
“And if you see in me “an Obot,” chuckles, you sure as hell haven't been reading my posts, have you? Tsk.” – Tuci78 to naturalborn
Of course, naturalborn will now fall all over himself re-uniting with Tuci, because he needs an ally. Even an ally whose contempt for his intellect is obvious, as Tuci's is for naturalborn, whom he compliments by calling “chuckles.”
So for the proposition that naturalborn is the Village Idiot, I present this sequence.

Perhaps I haven't given AristotletheHun his due.
Yesterday he and I went back and forth, well really just a lot of back, not much forth, about these two black people he dredged up who are against Obama.
I pointed out that one is the President of the Black Republicans, which naturally bears on her credibility in saying that Obama is a racist.
I pointed out that the other is a self-described “expert” but never defines her expertise, and pointed out that in the two-paragraph article that AristotletheHun had himself posted to the website he was directing me to, the “expert” prominently listed her media availability and invited those interested to contact her to set up a moneymaking and exposure-generating interview for herself.
I thought that pretty effectively ended the debate.
I was wrong.
AristotletheHun posted the following devastating retort:

It's NOT a treaty dipstick.
Kenya is it's OWN country and as such ALL kenya's people, let me repeat ALL IT'S PEOPLE ARE KENYAN CITIZENS.
What planet ARE you from?
What part of the English language don't you understand?
Once Obama's dad became a KENYAN citizen so did his kid.
That treaty has NOTHING to do with Obama's and any so called British citizenship.
Keep telling yourself that though. I am sure it will keep you company in the padded room as you run around it screaming “HE'S A BRITISH CITIZEN! HE'S A BRITISH CITIZEN!!! AHHHHHH”.

Hawaii DID CONFIRM he was born in Hawaii.
Don't you know how to read English? Did the translator you use not translate yesterday's release by the Hawaii DOH that specifically stated.
OBAMA WAS BORN IN HAWAII.
They didn't say “we have a birth certificate and that's all we are telling you”.
Must suck to be as stupid as you are.
And I mean that in the most sincere way.
You are the one whose picture is next to the phrase STUCK ON STUPID.

Oh here is the statement from Hawaii:
“I … have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen,” Health Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino said in a brief statement. “I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago.”
So you were saying………..?

No. Tuci. You cannot read. I distinctly wrote that I read the comment threads and respond to what I feel like responding to.
I indicated I get an email alerting me to the existence of direct replies to me. I never indicated that the emails are how I track comments. I read the threads. Try again.
But don't bother, come to think of it. You've explained again and again that you are not interested in proving that Obama's birth certificate is forged, or that Obama is not legitimate as President.
You've scorned the need to show such proof, in your transparent attempt to avoid admitting you don't have any.
Instead, you've posited several times that your whole purpose here is merely to annoy the people who post in support of reality.
To wit, I remind you of your comments nestled down in another thread (“A look at those Birther Grand Jury Presentments,” where you were contorting yourself to avoid recognizing the inescapable conclusion to which euphgeek's points compelled you):
“When a prosecutor brings such an accusation before a grand jury to seek indictments, I'm sure he'll need such information. Proceduralism, proceduralism, thy name is the ways of the shysterate.
But a doctor doesn't need “hard evidence” to get into the diagnostic mode, or even to arrive upon a robust differential according to well-established standards of care.
Little shitwad, you're trying witlessly to simulate cleverness by imposing upon the non-believers (in your ACORN “poverty pimp” Messiah) whom you hate so fulminantly the exigencies of the legal profession when no such limitations impinge upon our merry effort to brainfuck you pissant socialists…”
Ahem. When you're done coughing up phlegm and typing out what it feels like to swallow it again, let us know. We'll be looking at your last sentence, where you describe the “merry effort” to “brainfuck” the “pissant socialists” who you seem to sense lurking around every corner.
I could also direct you to your witless exchange with naturalborn, where the two of you talk past each other in a clueless comedy of conspiracy-theorists. You refer to Obamaphiles as gerbils in cages that you like to rattle.
It's no longer amusing to banter with you. Your sense of humor is warped. “Hire the handicapped” is an example.
Actually, that bears emphasis.
Whatever your true purpose, you hide behind a notion of getting government out of the picture so that citizens can lead full, productive lives. Yet you mock the defenseless handicapped in their attempt to do just that, by getting jobs they are capable of doing and want to do.
None of us supposes that our words here will change the world or start a treason inquiry. But we each suppose that we will contribute something of value to the discussion. I, like the other non-birthers here, am in a constant search for truth. When I find it, I move on. To the extent that I post here, it is not to resolve any confusion I may have; it is to point out the deliberate and intentional distortions present in the posts of birthers, who are unquestionably motivated by malevolent, racist ends.
I have never, in the course of mocking people for being birthers, mocked their race, sex, religion, sexual orientation, or any other “naturalborn” characteristic.
The fact that you would so mock the handicapped actually offends me more than any of your nonsensical shit-speak about the President or about blacks. I'm not handicapped, nor do I have close relations with anyone who is. But I have friends who are, and I want to live in a world where those people, and all of us who may be a little different, can walk or roll or hobble or motor with pride down the street to our place of business, and contribute something of value, in accordance with our talents and abilities.
So while you are not funny, nor are you anyone to take seriously. This is why I have no use for you or your insipid, over-wrought posts. Thank you for confirming that you cannot read.
So, since

Hey, stevie, I'd just love to get my hands on the physical copy (if such exists) of the supposed 2007 Certification of Live Birth from which those computer graphic images to which you masturbate so frenetically were purportedly scanned, I really would.
Y'see, to prove “that Obama's birth certificate is forged” (or genuine), somebody qualified and capable of properly examining such a legal document would actually have to hold and inspect such a real physical print-on-paper attestation as to the information putatively reflected in Hawaii state archives, and thus far (surprise!) NOBODY has done that.
Nobody has been allowed to do that, stevie. Your big lover-man in Washington City has run through a reasonably estimated megabuck in shyster fees to prevent anybody from being allowed to do that, and whether you're chortling in amusement or cowering in a flop-sweat doesn't really matter, does it?
Hey, I never ever intended to make this process fun for a butt-slurping Obamaphile like you, stevie. You haven't gotten that yet?

Here's an interesting article from that most fawning of Obama-worshippers, the editorial board of the National Review Online.
Even the NRO admits that President Obama is a legitimate President.
The NRO tries to distance the conservative movement from the birther movement, for the exact reason I laid out in response to lewdsax: it weakens the other complaints against Obama to be lumped in with birther nuts.
And the NRO tries to downplay the number of birthers out there by comparing it to other wacky conspiracy theories… Wonder what the NRO says about the poll that shows 53% of Republicans in the South either don't believe Obama's a natural born citizen or aren't sure?
Here's the article, at any rate:
“Pres. Barack Obama has a birthday coming up, a week from Tuesday. We hope he takes the day off—or even the whole week, the briefest of respites from his busy schedule of truncating our liberties while exhausting both the public coffers and our patience. The president’s birthday comes to mind because we recently spent some time looking at a photograph of his birth certificate, being held by Joe Miller of Factcheck.org, who took the time to examine it. President Obama was born on August 4, 1961, at 7:24 p.m, in Honolulu County, Hawaii, on the island of Oahu. The serial number on his birth certificate is 010641. Baby Barack’s birth was not heralded, as some of his partisans have suggested, by a star in the east, but it was heralded by the Honolulu Star, as well as the Honolulu Advertiser, each of which published birth announcements for young Mr. Obama.
Much foolishness has become attached to the question of President Obama’s place of birth, and a few misguided souls among the Right have indulged it. The myth that Barack Obama is ineligible to be president represents the hunt for a magic bullet that will make all the unpleasant complications of his election and presidency disappear. We are used to seeing conspiracy theories from the Left, for instance among the one in three Democrats who believe that 9/11 was an inside job conducted with the foreknowledge of the Bush administration. We’ve seen everything under the sun blamed on Dick Cheney and Halliburton, and Rosie O’Donnell has given us much mirth with her metallurgical expertise, while Andrew Sullivan has beclowned himself and tarnished the good name of The Atlantic with his investigation into the “real” parentage of Trig Palin. Most notable, the Iraq War summoned the craziness in a big way, and there are those who still shudder over their espressos at the mention of the Carlyle Group. And there is a fair amount of crossover between those fixated on Obama’s birth certificate and the 9/11 “truthers” — lawyer Phil Berg, for instance, is a player in both worlds. There is nothing that President Obama’s coterie would enjoy more than to see the responsible Right become a mirror image of the loopy Left circa 2003.
The birth-certificate business is not a uniquely conservative phenomenon; the allegation that Obama was born in Kenya seems to have originated with a Hillary Clinton supporter at a blog called The Blue State. Either way, this fantasy is not particularly widespread within the conservative movement, but it has attracted enough interest that it needs to be addressed.
The fundamental fiction is that Obama has refused to release his “real” birth certificate. This is untrue. The document that Obama has made available is the document that Hawaiian authorities issue when they are asked for a birth certificate. There is no secondary document cloaked in darkness, only the state records that are used to generate birth certificates when they are requested.
If one applies for a United States passport, the passport office will demand a birth certificate. It defines this as an official document bearing “your full name, the full name of your parent(s), date and place of birth, sex, date the birth record was filed, and the seal or other certification of the official custodian of such records.” The Hawaiian birth certificate President Obama has produced—the document is formally known as a “certificate of live birth”—bears that information. It has been inspected by reporters, and several state officials have confirmed that the information in permanent state records is identical to that on the president’s birth certificate—which is precisely what one expects, of course, since the state records are used to generate those documents when they are requested. In other words, what President Obama has produced is the “real” birth certificate of myth and lore. The director of Hawaii’s health department and the registrar of records each has personally verified that the information on Obama’s birth certificate is identical to that in the state’s records, the so-called vault copy. Given that fact, we are loath even to engage the fanciful notion that President Obama was born elsewhere, contrary to the information on his birth certificate, but we note for the record that his mother was a native of Kansas, whose residents have been citizens of the United States for a very long time, and whose children are citizens of the United States as well.
The attention paid to President Obama’s place of birth is not unprecedented. In fact, it may be the only thing President Obama has in common with Pres. Chester Arthur, whose opponents whispered that he had been born in Canada. A number of unsuccessful presidential candidates—George Romney, Barry Goldwater, and Lowell Weicker among them—actually were born outside of the United States (in Mexico, the Arizona Territory, and Paris, respectively) to American parents and thereby into American citizenship. If the conspiracy theorists have evidence that President Obama went through the naturalization process, let them show it. But there is no such evidence, because this theory is based on unreality, as two minutes’ examining the claims of its proponents reveals. The hallmark of a conspiracy theory is that a lack of evidence for the theory is taken as yet more evidence for the theory. Indeed, the maddening thing about dealing with conspiracy hobbyists of this or any sort is the ever-shifting nature of their argument and their alleged evidence: Never mind the birth certificate, his step-grandmother said he was born in Kenya! (No, she didn’t.)
One of the unfortunate consequences of this red-herring discussion is that there are plenty of questions about Obama’s background and history that we would like to have answered. In spite of two books of memoirs, there remain murky areas in his biography. And when it comes to those college transcripts, count us among those who’d love to know whether Dr. Bailout ever took an advanced economics class and how he performed in it.
Barack Obama may prefer European-style socialized health care. He may consider himself a citizen of the Earth and sometimes address his audiences as “people of the world,” as though he were born not in another country but on another planet. Like Bruce Springsteen, he has a lot of bad political ideas; but he was born in the U.S.A. “
http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=ZTRjMTFhMz…
Okay, people, did you get all that? Read it carefully. Even the National Review Online's editorial board confirmed that:
-Obama's COLB is the “real” birth certificate that is issued when the State of Hawaii responds to a request for a birth certificate;
-Obama's COLB is authentic as confirmed by journalists and state officials alike;
-No other proof is needed;
-No other proof exists;
-Obama's Kansan mother conferred natural-born citizenship upon him at any rate.
I direct your attention particularly to this point:
“But there is no such evidence, because this theory is based on unreality, as two minutes’ examining the claims of its proponents reveals. The hallmark of a conspiracy theory is that a lack of evidence for the theory is taken as yet more evidence for the theory. Indeed, the maddening thing about dealing with conspiracy hobbyists of this or any sort is the ever-shifting nature of their argument and their alleged evidence: Never mind the birth certificate, his step-grandmother said he was born in Kenya! (No, she didn’t.)”
Um, that's what we've been telling you birthers for a long time now.

I was wondering how to get naturalborn to see that his “British citizen” [sic] claptrap is wrong.
nbc1 tried facts. I tried logic. Ok, I tried logic and mockery. But still logic.
I realized I'm going about this all wrong. I needed the words of naturalborn's fallen hero, Tuci78, whom naturalborn hit with “friendly fire” earlier, as I mentioned.
So I present Tuci78's own thoughts on the subject, plucked from another thread on this site:
“I have come to the conclusion that diversion into areas like the supposed British subject status conferred upon Barry through his father, his trip to Pakistan as a young adult. and such are without proximal prospect of efficacy, and should be set aside.” — Tuci78
This is Tuci78's way of saying he doesn't buy the “British subject” or “wacky Pakistani trip when none was allowed” lines of birther attack.
So apparently he uses some sort of reasonableness standard to evaluate the claims he stands behind. Makes you wonder about the whole fascination with the lovely Mr. and Mrs. Prominent White Person Nordyke birth announcement, eh?

Glad you're so well-informed, rogered. Cant say as I've seen manifest of such scrupulous attention to detail on the part of your fellow fellahin, but it's a pleasure to know that at least one of you Obamaphiles yanks his rostal lump out of his cloaca from time to time and looks around.
What, you don't like a simple declarative sentence like this one?
“Only the information on the original birth certificate, 'the original Certificate of Live Birth,' can demonstrate to the people of the United States whether there is convincing evidence that he was actually born here or whether a relative or two (or possibly even Barack Obama himself) just made a statement to that effect to a low level bureaucrat.”
What, you want it spelled out any more straightforwardly? Barry's gotta cough up that alleged COLB and allow his vault records in Honolulu to be uncracked. That simple.
What the hell is he hiding, and why the hell is he hiding it?

How far into that garbage did you slog?
They're just “j-school jerkwards.” Like the folks at the commie-founded Annenberg Center, who fund factcheck.org.
Well, that's if you are aware that Reagan's close friend and choice for British Ambassador was really a secret commie who was pining away in the hope that some day a black man would come along and befriend a terrorist on his right wing funded educational board (but none of the city officials on the board) and then run for President.
It all adds up. To a pile of shit that attracts human flies like the test-taker. The rest of us are conditioned to walk around such filth or clean it up.
So I admire your attempt to clean it up. But I think the birthers, their long-winded leader chief among them, have left a stain that will take industrial-strength cleanser to remove.
Better ask the National Review Online editorial board how they got rid of THEIR birther problem.

First, it's not a sworn attestation of Dr. Fukino.
Second, it's uttered in contravention of stated policy as articulated by Dr. Okubo back in October 2008, as well as Hawaii Revised Statutes Section 338-18.
Third, Dr. Fukino did not provide at that time supporting true and certified documentation supporting the particulars of her statement.
This action might easily be construed by the gullible to provide “proof” of Mr. Soetoro's “natural-born” status, but Dr. Fukino's statement itself, as released to the media, does not rise even to the level of what is given under oath in a court of law.

As I've written repeatedly, I don't “believe” anything. I don't use that word, do I? Hm. Don't remember having done so….
Anyhow, the physical, print-on-paper, properly signed and duly sealed Certification of Live Birth (COLB) allegedly issued by the state of Hawaii to “Barack Hussein Obama II” in 2007 still hasn't been submitted for examination by impartial, experienced, and expert forensic documents evaluators, and of Dr. Fukino's most recent statement (given in what appears to be flagrant violation of Hawaii Revised Statutes Section 338-18) we have no full correlation of the information in the records Dr. Fukino claims to have seen and those data appearing in the computer graphic images released by the Obama campaign in June 2008.
If such a discrepancy exists, then those computer graphic images uttered in June 2008 were fabrications deliberately created with intention to commit fraud, and that's a significant consideration all by itself.
Beyond that, bear in mind that Dr. Fukino's most recent pronouncement was not a sworn attestation, and she did not support it with documentary verification of any kind. Not what I would call more than Level III evidence.
And the WesternJournalism.com people are merely passing along the content of the cited report. They didn't produce it.

Hmmm. George Washington, El Presidente and First C-i-C, was the son of a British father. His dad was some British guy named Augustine Washington. The modestly-named Augustine was born in a British colony in 1694.
Somehow they let that George Washington fellow slip through the cracks. Wonder how that happened. He was somewhat famous, even then.

Hm. First of all, rog, cognitive dissonance isn't quite what it appears you'd like to assume on the part of constitutionalists who take issue with your Mombasa Messiah's lawful qualification to be performing Valsalva maneuvers upon the Presidential water closet. Careful how you use pshrinktralk, old boy. It'll get you tripping over your foreskin, and I'm afraid stevie's reserved that pleasure for himself.
The idea that someone as secretive and hermetically “sealing” of past personal records as Barry Soetoro is not to be instantly believed when he presents nothing more than computer graphic images of an alleged Certification of Live Birth supposedly issued to him by the state of Hawaii in 2007 and never once the document itself (except allegedly to his fellow Annenberg Foundation employees at FactCheck) as proof of his “natural born citizen” status and therefore his eligibility to stand for election to the office of President of these United States is not contradicted by anything else anyone knows about him.
If one is not holding self-contradictory ideas simultaneously, “cognitive dissonance” does not obtain. The idea “Barry Soetoro is a lying sack of shit” and the idea “Barry Soetoro is criminally usurping the powers of the presidency” fit together very nicely, thank you.
As for conspiracy or collusion in the offices of Dr. Fukino and/or Dr. Okubo, why stretch to the level at which explicit communication on this matter has gone on between these bureaucrats and the Cook County machine politician presently squatting on the carpet in the Oval Office trying to find the semen stains left thereupon by his good friend, Bubba?

Thanks for adding so much richness and vitality to the debate. We know you don't care about facts or proof. Your fixation is on black men and their excretory or sexual functions.
You call President Obama “secretive.” I suppose you think that he should let you inspect his anus to see whether it's pink or brown. You'll just have to continue using your depraved imagination, you slithering worm.

At the outset of the Watergate break-in brouhaha, I do recall that “most US people [considered] it to be a minor issue,” too.
Then it just wouldn't go away. Nope. Pretty soon there were people watching Nixon sweat on live TV and saying to each other: “Gawd, something really stinks about that guy!”
And all the hard hats of the Moral Majority and all the gaudy little girls dressed up in red, white, and blue cheering for him at the RNC and all the “War on Drugs” types stumping for old Slippery Dick went for naught, and he was climbing onto Marine-1 for the very last time with Jerry Ford's promise of a presidential pardon in his pocket.

Or are you totally ignorant about the Obamacare plans? Oops. I forgot.
However, compared to many other countries, US health care hardly is something to be proud of so it could hardly hurt to instill a sense of competition. After all, what have these insurance companies done for us, other than denying us care or dropping our insurance when we get sick?
It's time where a more motivated player gets to stir up. And if the private sector cannot compete with the government, then perhaps it's time that some of the profits are put to better use.
What do you say? Head to head competition or hiding behind the backs of dying americans?

You mean such Constitutional concepts as standing? Of course, none of these suits have even provided and facts that would place doubt on the clear fact of Obama's natural born status.
I guess, what you call fancy lawyer tricks, is just an indirect way of saying that your side lost 40+ lawsuits. Why is it that these 'birther' lawyers cannot even manage to bring a single case to the court which does not suffer from lack of standing, faulty reasoning, faulty procedures such as forgetting to inform the plaintiffs that they have been served and other errors typically made by first year students. Why is it that these suits have to rely on proven falsehoods and misdirections? All because they believe that, contrary to the facts, the President is not natural born. And why do they believe this? I doubt that it has anything to do with the Constitution or they would not be torturing the same Constitution as they have been doing with their actions and filings.
Of course, as is typical with your arguments, you are unable to present any supporting evidence.
As the real facts show Obama to be born in the US and thus natural born and since he meets age and residency requirements, it seems that your definition of 'not lawfully eligible' is double speak for “hurting your sensibilities”. Of course, you will continue to ignore that you have nothing to support your position.
But then again, I do not think that you really are interested in defending your position. I can only see one plausible explanation for your outrageous claims and that is to guarantee another landslide victory for Obama in 2012.
For that I thank you my friend. Who had thought.

The “belief” side of this discussion is on the Obamaphile side entirely.
On the contrary, instead of just belief that President Obama is ineligble because of some unnamed disability, we know that President Obama per his COLB was born on US soil and thus a US natural born citizen. We know that there is no evidence of any Kenyan birth, Indonesian citizenship, Pakistan trip and other myths that have been created.
In addition to the COLB we know that the head of the DOH of Hawaii has come forward and stated that Obama was born in Hawaii, no surprise here. This again makes President Obama a natural born citizen. So now we have a prima facie document supported by self authenticating newspaper articles, and the statements of an official.
Of course this will go away, other than some southern conservatives, the large majority of the country has no questions.
Of course, in some way, I believe that the issue should not go away to soon as it is an excellent launching platform for another electoral landslide in 2012 by our President.
As I said, no beliefs, just facts, unlike your belief that President Obama is not lawfully eligible even though Congress disagrees with you.
Such is the Constitution and although you may have many questions and anger, there is nothing you can do about it. Certainly making up more and more unsupported facts is only going to serve to undermine your position even further.
Come to think of it, it would not surprise me if people may reach the conclusion that that is your goal.

Given the conditions desired by Barry Soetoro under his Cloward-Piven Strategy for driving the U.S. economy into ruin, it is a dead certainty that private sector health “insurance” will disappear completely, either co-opted by the federal government in a kind of nationalization, or rendered nonviable by “competition” from the default services offered by a government program moving into their sphere of operations.
The health insurance companies, unlike the federal government, have neither the ability to counterfeit currency as they like nor to send goons with guns to harass and strangle and otherwise “regulate” their competitors.
“Never let the people with all the money and the people with all the guns be the same people.”
As for comparison with “other countries,” if U.S. health care is so shameful, why do we see so damned many people from overseas – including folks from developed “first-world” nations like Canada – coming here to get care at levels of quality and reliability better than they can find at home?
There really ain't a helluva lot to your standard socialist line of bullshit, noogie.
As for getting some more “Head to head competition” into the American health care marketplace, I am all for it. Let's get rid of occupational licensing for a start, shut down the efficacy requirements in the FDA's new drug applications process (that'd knock about half a billion bucks off the development of every new chemical entity – most of which don't ever make it to “drug” stage – right there, reducing the real costs of all drugs across the board), and let people buy their health insurance from national carriers instead of the local, state, or regional providers they're now forced to do business with by dint of government fiat.
Buncha other stuff, too. Look at Thomas DiLorenzo's latest column for more on the subject.

Rather than relying on your fiction, why not look at the facts. The US leads in infant mortality rates, % of GDP spending and lags in life expectancy, health care coverage.
[The US] scored poorly in coordinating the care of chronically ill patients, in protecting the safety of patients, and in meeting their needs and preferences, which drove our overall quality rating down to last place. American doctors and hospitals kill patients through surgical and medical mistakes more often than their counterparts in other industrialized nations.
But let's ignore the facts by calling it socialist line of bullshit. Goodness, we would not want to address these facts now dow we.
So why are you so afraid of some real competition? Or do you want the insurance companies to rake in billions without providing much of anything? Is that your concept of the American dream were a few get to screw over the millions, even involving their death, just for a quick profit for a few?
I see.

Not “my side,” noogie. I haven't had a friggin' thing to do with any of those lawsuits. I just observe that tenuous “fancy lawyer tricks” like using questions about standing to prevent fact-finding actions to be undertaken is one of those situations in which the contradictions of legal proceduralism and “just drag the goddam thing out and let's look at it” common sense becomes pretty glaring.
If we were allowed to have “the real facts” about your Mahdi's supposed birth in Honolulu – or even “the real facts” about whether or not he'd ever had a Certification of Live Birth issued to him by the state of Hawaii that reflects the information displayed in those JPG images his campaign had ghosted to two friendly Web sites in June 2008 – this “birther” thing would dry up and blow away to precisely the same extent that the “Dubbya Did It” conspiracy theories about 9/11 have.
But, damnit, as long as Barry Soetoro keeps stonewalling like a fugitive fleeing the long arm of the law, this thing just ain't gonna die. The best your shitwad Messiah can hope for is that his truncated presidential reign gets to go in the history books with a Mark McGuire type asterisk next to it, and the bands will be playing “Hail to the Chief” for Joe Biden.
Yuck!

But it does not explain why we see so many examples of made up facts by the birthers. Does that not worry you? Indonesian citizenship, Kenyan birth, Selective Registration, Sister's birth certificate, Pakistan travel, foreign student scholarship and so on.
I'd take you more seriously if you showed to be rejecting these myths and accept that they served to lengthen an issue which by any reasonable standard was settled almost a year ago.
If you object to Constitutional concepts of standing then you have no standing to object to the faulty belief that the President is not Constitutionally eligible.

Ironic as there is indeed no evidence to support that he was born in Kenya or that he even is a Kenyan. You have seen the birth certificate and still you reject. Is that your idea of honesty?
Obama was found qualified by Congress, for the next 3.5 years, he will continue as our President, especially now that we know that the fact of the COLB which shows him born on US soil is confirmed by the DOH official.
I understand that your beliefs prevent you from finding him qualified, for God knows what reason. You seem to foister a lot of hatred and disappointment, something you seem to recognize yourself.
Get used to the simple fact: The COLB confirmed by the DOH shows Obama natural born. Congress qualified president Obama per Constitutional requirements and there is nothing you can do other than stamp your feet in frustration that there is this 'Kenyan' in office. Of course, rather than whining, and fantasizing about weasels, perhaps you could prepare yourself for not just 4 but 8 years of what you surely would see as torture but which will make this country a much better place for all.
The absence of ANY supporting evidence for your so-called facts is once again duly noted, and as expected ignored by you. It does not surprise me that some may see you as an Obama supporter yourself. Black Ops you know. That would take a genius mind.

Infant mortality rates depend more heavily on prenatal care than anything else, and the effectiveness of such care depends more upon the pregnant patient's compliance than availability of such care in the community (which is pretty good; any primary care grunt or nurse can handle the best part of it). You got populations of young women who do drugs, smoke tobacco, sleep around, eat indiscriminately, and otherwise jack up their risk profiles in this extremely diverse nation of ours, and you're gonna get high infant mortality rates reported.
We also classify infant mortality a helluva lot more stringently than even in most other developed-world countries, meaning that we kinda “hyper-report” figures that they simply shuffle off the books. Sort of an “apples-to-watermelons” comparison in that socialist bullshit there.
Ditto for “life expectancy” and “health care coverage.”
What good is “coverage” if it means you sit in a big room after taking a number and wait for hours – or days, or weeks, or months, or years – until somebody gets around to making a diagnosis and implementing treatment? You got “coverage,” sure. You got care? Nah!
And I would delight in “some real competition,” noogie! Like I said, get rid of all occupational licensing and let us sawbones compete with each other – including all the foreign MDs who want to immigrate – according to the quality of care and the other advantages each of us can offer. I'm pretty sure that if my patients aren't forced to use me as just another fungible “gatekeeper provider,” I can differentiate my services and my prices adequately to keep or even increase my “market share” as a businessman.
As it is now, if you've got a bunch of Mangled Care clients locked into your special oligopoly on a panel of providers, they're pretty much screwed and you're in the tall cotton. I'd rather be off the HMO programs and into close coordination with my patients on the true and undistorted costs of their care, helping them get the genuine “best bang for their buck” in everything they do to keep themselves healthy and to manage such diseases as they may suffer.
Why not? I like this racket immensely. People come to me with sometimes horrendous, mostly minor problems and trust me to keep their confidences and do my damnedest to help them. Gawd, the egoboost is intoxicating. Ditto the sense of guilt at even the remote possibility that I might screw up. What else gets anybody to go through all the miseries of education and training and into medical practice?
As for “the American dream,” I thought it involved people dealing with their neighbors in value for value. What, you don't like that?

That's not what the health insurance system is all about.
I am not sure why you still object to government competition. Should the private sector be afraid that the government can outcompete them? As they do with medicare, military healthcare and the VA hospitals?
Maybe it's time to take out the middle man and have people get bang for their buck rather than be denied for a variety of business reasons.
Of course, as a health care provider, I understand your worries.

And he hasn't “provided his COLB,” but rather has had an anonymous staffer in the Obama campaign supposedly scan it into a couple of computer graphic images and email 'em out.
No physical true and certified copy of any such forensic document has EVER been submitted into evidence in anything remotely like an open public procedings.

Availability of care is not the same as accessibility of care. Why is it that other countries can deal with this while the US seems to have a real problem here?
Why do we spend more per capita and get poorer results? Hint: Insurance will drop you for long term care, and can deny you access to healthcare. Sure you can object and sue. From your grave…
The belief that US healthcare is somehow better or the best in the world is contradicted by facts. Then again, I have come to realize that facts mean little to you.

Wrong again, people could come to the office and see the document. As was done by some who provided actual photographs.
There is no reason why your curiosity to see his long birth certificate should be satisfied, especially when you are unwilling to accept the fact established by his COLB which is prima facie evidence.
I admire your moving goal posts but the facts remain what they are. Why you believe this president should be treated differently or why you believe Constitutional protections should be abandoned in your pursuit of these myths is beyond me.
I understand why you, at all cost, have to avoid these facts. I wish I could say that I cared. But honestly, I find your objections a bit boring. Luckily so do most self respecting US citizens, if the polls are to be believed.

Well, I can't disagree too much on any condemnation of “the health insurance system.” After all, it's not “insurance” and it was never supposed to secure “health.” The krauts are at least honest enough to call their system “sickness funds.”
Gotta take history back into the days of the Greatest Generation, when defense contractors were getting tons of counterfeit currency to manufacture the sinews of war, and were bidding hard for available labor in a market brutally plundered by government conscription.
They couldn't offer higher wages, 'cause government had slapped down wage and price controls to disguise the most obvious effects of all that currency inflation. But “health insurance”? That they could offer in the compensation package. And they could do it as a nontaxable part of that package, too.
Okay, once that rat was set loose in the henhouse and started eating the chicks and sucking the eggs, it kinda grew. “Temporary wartime measures” induced by governments tend to do that, don't they?
And we come to today's bloody mess – all government induced, every bit of it exacerbated by “corrective” government actions over the decades. So what else is new?
And, yeah, you bet that “it's time to take out the middle man” and get the individual consumer of health care services back into control, shutting out both the private sector bureaucrats and the “Malevolent Jobholder” of civil government.

Hm? Where the hell d'you live, noogie? Except in broad stretches of flyover country (where there are whole counties without so much as a nurse practitioner running a storefront clinic), both availability and accessibility are non-issues.
Basic levels of preventive care can be gotten all to hellangone over the place. What we haven't got much of is widespread patient desire to go to even the most minimal inconvenience in getting that care. That's why the Emergency Departments are choked to the gills.
Something of why “we spend more per capita and get poorer results” in that, of course. A patient comes into the office, and standard of care is pretty quickly and reliably met. The same patient with the same chief complaint shows up in the Emergency Department and the costs instantly spiral up into the thousands and thousands of dollars.
Remember all those hungry shysters of the Plaintiff's Bar, noogie? Believe you me, the average American medical practitioner never forgets. Savvy “defensive medicine”?

That my friend is a position which needs a bit more than a mere statement. You do realize that availability and accessibility is more than having a few nurse practitioners sitting around?
Back to my earlier question: Why can other countries do so much better? What do you think is the difference? Are people just lazy? Do they not have the necessary transportation? Can they not obtain the necessary time off? Can they not afford the visit due to lack of insurance?
Despite the clear benefits of prenatal care, the United States is one of the few industrialized countries that does not provide universal healthcare for pregnant women.
Why is that?

The Hawaii state DOH statements are free-floating and unsupported (and might indeed be criminal), and the Congress….
Hoo, boy. The Congress. Reminds me too, too much of the Illinois State House of Representatives voting unanimously in 1897 to make pi equal to precisely 3.2 ….
So what have you got, noogie? Not a friggin' thing, when you get right down to it.

Haha, sure under your fanciful conspiracies any fact can be 'explained away' however the desperateness exhibited indicates that these facts could never be accepted. Even if the President were to provide more support, some would continue to find fanciful reasons to ignore these facts.
PS: The Nordyke information was filed on the 11th, perhaps too late to be printed on the 13th? See anyone can come up with good reasons to explain that which does not exist. It's much harder to explain that which does exist.
So what do you have? I raise you a COLB certified to be truthful about the state of birth by a DOH administrator.
You do not even have anything to counter that simple fact now do you.
Sure, the COLB was just a scan which showed all the details and supported by photographs with all the details, and the information that Obama was born in Hawaii just happened to be confirmed by a DOH official. If that's not a friggin' thing then I am not sure how to describe your state of absence of any evidence.

Yeah. The krauts use “sickness funds” in their English-language publications. The German word they use is Krankenkasse.

“Until this country restores its middle class, it will doom even more people to early death.”
Well, I'm with you on that. So why are you supporting that socialist shitwad, Barry Soetoro, whose lifelong objective has been the extirpation of the “middle class” in this country like his Bolshevik brethren did for the kulaks (the smallholding middle class agricultural peasantry) in the old Soviet Empire?
Hm. You didn't read DiLorenzo's article at all, didja? See below.
Costs always explode whenever the government gets involved, and governments always lie about it. In 1970 the government forecast that the hospital insurance (HI) portion of Medicare would be “only” $2.9 billion annually. Since the actual expenditures were $5.3 billion, this was a 79 percent underestimate of cost. In 1980 the government forecast $5.5 billion in HI expenditures; actual expenditures were more than four times that amount – $25.6 billion. This bureaucratic cost explosion led the government to enact 23 new taxes in the first 30 years of Medicare. (See Ron Hamoway, “The Genesis and Development of Medicare,” in Roger Feldman, ed., American Health Care, Independent Institute, 2000, pp. 15–86). The Obama administration's claim that a government takeover of healthcare will somehow magically reduce costs is not to be taken seriously. Government never, ever, reduces the cost of doing anything.“

Little noogie, if you really knew anything about how to leverage maximum bang for the health care buck (like those of us in this racket tend to learn whether we want to practice as “doctor to the poor” or not), you'd realize that a nurse practitioner in a storefront clinic is something like the proverbial cop on the beat.
Such a beat cop might not be able to do everything a SWAT team or a crew of crime scene investigators can manage, but he's got the pulse of the neighborhood, and he can certainly handle the small stuff. He can keep the peace.
Well, a country doctor or a PA or an NP so situated can do pretty much the same thing. Country doctors have been doing it for centuries. Still do, if we're not too badly screwed with.
Early diagnosis and treatment are the levers upon which preventive care most completely depends, and preventive care is what keeps the costs of illnesses – monetary and human – down to tolerable levels.
And other contries don't “do so much better” than we do, noogie. They report better results than we do, but we're rather uncompromisingly honest in the ways we approach epidemiological information harvest and interpretation. Those guys in Europe….
Well, they're not exactly a buncha liars, but they're not telling the whole truth, either. Never have. Amazing how good your clinical results can be made to look if you just slough off a few of the most egregious outliers in your statistical methodology…
Hm. Didn't Merck do that in their Vioxx studies? Yep. The tricks are well-understood, and only seem to get past the really stupid types.
Like you and your socialist brethren, noogie.
By the bye that “qu'ils mangent de la brioche” line was perfectly reasonable and not at all flippant. Marie Antoinette was speaking of a stringently government price-controlled market in bread that artificially pushed bakers' costs below what they were allowed to charge for their bread. Cakes and such were not in that price-control scheme, and so the bakers were producing plenty of that stuff.
Government fucked up again, noogie. Great example!

You did not read any of the articles I referenced now did you? If his writings are anywhere imaginative as your dealing with the facts, the I see no reason to explore or be distracted by this. What's the relevance of me reading one long hyperlinked paragraph? And I still fail to see any relevance as the Obama plan is not Government Run healthcare, nor do I see any truth in this when looking at the % GDP cost of US healthcare which is supposedly mostly private run. The same argument can be equally well applied to non government run healthcare where insurers can freely drop those who suffer from pre-existing conditions who deny services to those who fall ill. There is no mechanism to regulate here either, profit based motives lead to minimization of quality of care while optimizing for profits.
However healthcare, as with education is not a for profit undertaking and while it may be more costly than private run, it provides equal access to all rather than limited access to a few.
If government can run medicare at a fraction of the cost, what's wrong with giving government a chance. And if government cannot do it cheaper, why are the private insurance companies so concerned? Surely it would be trivial to compete with anyone who is more costly? When Dilorenzo suggests that healthcare is a good not a right, it seems that we quickly have to part ways. I understand why you would appreciate his beliefs as to how healthcare should be run. I understand DiLorenzo's fear mongering that health insurance will lead to government run healthcare.

What's with this endless “conspiracies” litany among you jerkwads, anyway, noogster? You never heard that time-honored saying about otherwise inexplicable adverse eventualities?
“Once is the thing itself. Twice is coincidence. The third time is enemy action.”
We are way to hellangone beyond the third time insofar as the Congress is concerned. Trusting to the legislature for anything is a royal route to catastrophe.
And the COLB is a document, not “just a scan.” The images provided by the Obama campaign support a claim that such a document had been scanned, but they are not proof of the scan, or even of the document's existence.
The image of a thing (as I've said) is not the thing itself.

You're a socialist, and any one unit of society is exactly the same as any other.
Those are two silly assertions. But in light of your usual arguments, just par for the course.
You are claiming that the COLB is not reliable, that the statement of the DOH administrator is not reliable and yet these documents are prima facie evidence. Contrary to your claim I am not interested in unreliable witnesses which is why I have come to reject the birther movement and its reliance on speculation, hearsay, myths and pure manufactured claims to further their cause.
We now know that the document, the COLB which by any measure available to us showed itself to be self authenticating and authentic. The latter was confirmed indirectly initially and directly by the DOH administrator.
Of course, there are some who are never convinced by any fact and will always insist that insufficient attention has been paid to the details.
Funny, where were you during the previous administration?
Suddenly we have president like Obama, who is seen by many as a threat to the status quo and rejected by many as ineligible because of his 'look and feel'.
No president has ever had to publish his birth certificates or show his eligibility in any other manner than done by Barack Obama. However, when Obama provided access to his birth certificate, people could touch the document, see and feel it, and yet few came forward to do so. Seems that there was limited interest in establishing the veracity of the document at that time? Of course things changed when Obama won, against the expectations and hopes of many. Now suddenly, the lawsuits popped out everywhere with wild and unsupported claims, using novel and unconventional legal arguments which were not surprisingly rejected by the courts as they are bound by the US Constitution.
In all this time, while doubting the veracity of the COLB, NO evidence has been provided that shows Obama not born in Hawaii. Many myths were built around Kenya, Indonesia, Pakistan, his selective services registration and so on and yet, the available data, attested to in 50 certificates to the secretaries of state, show Obama born on US soil, just as expected and just as any evidence suggests.
You may claim yourself to be a skeptic, but that would be at best a lazy skeptic who posts 'random' url's and then distances himself from the content.
I like reliable facts which is why I have come to reject the musings of the birthers as they lack in any form or manner in veracity.
Sure, you may argue, what about the COLB, why do we not get to see the original, why why why… Indeed, why should the President even continue to provide access to said certificate after people, inspite of the evidence, have come to reject it based on fanciful scenarios and mythological stories about Obama's adventures in exotic places. They called him a Muslim against all credible evidence, they called him a Marxist, against all common sense, they called him ineligible against all the evidence.
Now we have come to a time where most people have come to accept the facts. Only a few remain who claim to sincerely being interested in the truth while rejecting any evidence based on fanciful scenarios.
I am not a socialist, and I do not consider people to be exactly the same as any other. Of course, you seem to be hardly an expert on this topic, so I can forgive you for your ignorance.
If anything should have taught you is that my assertions are founded in facts and reliable evidence, and competent sources.
That you suggest otherwise, shows a level of ignorance of the facts.
So let me repeat
Obama's COLB which is duly signed and has the raised seal, and which by any credible measure is authentic, shows President Obama born in Hawaii and thus natural born.
In addition to this, the event of his birth was independently confirmed by two newspapers and the DOH administrator. The latte to be a competent and experienced evaluator.
And since she appears to be a Republican, likely to be hostile as well but bound by her duties.
Fukino was appointed to her position by a republican governor and Fukino has contributed to the Republican campaign fund.
Again, the facts suggest all but a friendly evaluator bound by her office.
As far as a social democracy is concerned, it is thriving and successful in many country providing healthcare and education to all its population unlike the US.

Little noogie, as long as doctors are expected to shoulder the costs of maintaining their offices, staffing them, paying for supplies, keeping the lights on and the municipal authorities from turning off their water supplies, what the hell d'you think medicine is but a necessarily “for profit undertaking”?
Kinda like plumbing and carpentry and dentistry and groceries. We're private sector middle-class guys out here who either make a profit or tell the people who work for us and the patients who depend on us: “Sorry, but I can't keep the practice going any more.”
Then the employees are out of work, and the patients have to find another doc, and I get to sleep a helluva lot better.
And if you disagree so passionately with DiLorenzo's absolutely common sense observation “that healthcare is a good not a right,” then how the hell do you define my rights, and the rights of my employees, and the rights of the nurses in the hospital and the aides in the extended care facilities and the physical therapists at the medical center?
If you and your “poor people” have some kind of absolute right to our lives and our services, what the hell does that make us? Your slaves? Your “public servants”?
Hoo, boy. The internal contradictions of socialism just can't be avoided, can they? Whenever you get past the warm and fuzzy velvet glove of “caring” and “community,” there's that same old iron fist.

Comment posted August 1, 2009 @ 8:46 am
Back to the claim that Obama by virtue of his temporary dual allegiances was not a natural born citizen and why this is wrong.
Under US law, it was well established that a child can never lose his US birthright citizenship because of his parents' status. At least not until the child can make his own decision when reaching the age of majority. Obama who was born on US soil was born a natural born US citizen while his father's British Citizenship caused Obama's status to also be guided by British Law. Of course British law has no relevance in the US. In fact, when Kenya gained independence, Obama's status was governed by Kenyan law and when reaching adulthood the status dissipated.
A very relevant case involves Steinkauler, and I have provide the findings by the US attorney based on the law of those days. As I will show, the opinion is supported by clear US legal precedents and in fact has been further strengthened.
In Steinkauler’s case (15 Op Atty Gen 15 12 Alb L.J. 23) in an opinion by Mr Pierrepont Attorney General of the US we have the following .Young Steinkauler who was born in St Louis after his father had been naturalized in the United States the father subsequently returning to Germany and taking the boy with him is a native born American citizen. There is no law of the United States under which his father or any other person can deprive him of his birthright. He can return to America at the age of twenty one and in due time if the people elect he can become President of the United States
A native born citizen who is forced to return with his father and who becomes a German citizen, can recover his natural born status when reaching the age of 21 and restore his natural born status. This shows that dual allegiance does not eliminate the natural born status of the child. Just as Obama was born in the United States, his status was temporarily ruled by foreign law, however when Obama had reached the age of 21, he had made it clear that the US would be his choice and he retained his US natural born birthright.

Nah. I'm stating that the images of the alleged COLB are unreliable. Images are easy to Photoshop. Print-on-paper, duly signed and sealed legal documents? Not so much.

And noogie isn't “interested in unreliable witnesses” but wants the wide, wonderful world out there to take the unsworn burblings of a bunch of FactCheck clowns as the sole support for such a print-on-paper document's existence? How droll!
The COLB supposedly scanned to create those images might, indeed, be “self authenticating and authentic.” Fine. So drag it out, right?
Ooh, sorry. No can do. Barry won't let us….
Y'see, noogie, your headache here is that there are a helluva lot of people who will never be convinced of your Messiah's eligibility to serve as POTUS unless they get the facts, right out in the open, and yet another fact that you can't talk out of existence is Barry's absolute and adamant refusal to put the friggin' birth certificate on a judge's bench in an open court proceeding and let people look at the real fucking thing.
And if you're not a socialist, noogie, what the hell are you doing supporting your Marxist Messiah with such stakhanovite socialist dedication?

Obama who was born on US soil was born a natural born US citizen while his father's British Citizenship caused Obama's status to also be guided by British Law. Of course British law has no relevance in the US. In fact, when Kenya gained independence, Obama's status was governed by Kenyan law and when reaching adulthood the status dissipated.
A very relevant case involves Steinkauler, and I have provide the findings by the US attorney based on the law of those days. As I will show, the opinion is supported by clear US legal precedents and in fact has been further strengthened.
In Steinkauler’s case (15 Op Atty Gen 15 12 Alb L.J. 23) in an opinion by Mr Pierrepont Attorney General of the US we have the following .Young Steinkauler who was born in St Louis after his father had been naturalized in the United States the father subsequently returning to Germany and taking the boy with him is a native born American citizen. There is no law of the United States under which his father or any other person can deprive him of his birthright. He can return to America at the age of twenty one and in due time if the people elect he can become President of the United States
A native born citizen who is forced to return with his father and who becomes a German citizen, can recover his natural born status when reaching the age of 21 and restore his natural born status. This shows that dual allegiance does not eliminate the natural born status of the child. Just as Obama was born in the United States, his status was temporarily ruled by foreign law, however when Obama had reached the age of 21, he had made it clear that the US would be his choice and he retained his US natural born birthright.
Note also how the opinion includes the term native born and 'running for president' suggesting that the term native and natural born are to be used interchangably.
Now a legal case to support this position
And here we have a legal ruling about double allegiance and how the child can elect to continue US citizenship back to the time of his birth, making him a native and natural born citizen
In Rawle’s View of the Constitution of the United States, p. 86, it is said: “Every person born within the United Slates, its territories, or districts whether the parents are citizens or aliens is a natural born citizen within the sense of the Constitution, and entitled to all the rights and privileges appertaining to that capacity.” …Moreover, if as is suggested, he [LaFayette ] was born to the advantages of a double allegiance, upon attaining his majority he exercised the right which was his of electing the government to which he would give allegiance, and that election related back to the time of his birth. Upon these authorities LaFayette had by birth what his father did not then have, citizenship of the United States and of the State of Massachusetts. This privilege neither needed nor had any strengthening by reflection from the subsequent naturalization of his father; he held it to the fullest extent in his own, and that the highest right.
and
But the subjection of the son to the father did not destroy, or even affect, the citizenship of the former; all the privileges and all the duties pertaining to that right were his; he might be called from under the father's authority to serve and defend the United States or the State of his residence.
Source: Town of New Hartford v Town of Canaan, Connecticut Supreme Court of Errors, May 3, 1888
The concept of Jus Soli, birth right determined by location is well established as a principle:
It is an established maxim,” says Mr. Madison, “that birth is a criterion of allegiance. Birth, however, derives its force sometimes from place, and sometimes from parentage; but. In general, place is the most certain criterion; it is what applies in the United States.” Two things usually concur to create citizenship: First, birth locally within the dominions of the sovereign; secondly, birth within the protection and obedience, or, in other words, within the allegiance of the sovereign. Opinion of Judge, 44 Me. 521, 523 (quoting Inglis v. Trustees of Sailor’s Snug Harbor, 28 U. S. [3 Pet,] 99, 155, 7 L. Ed. 617)…..
Showing that allegiance refers to being bound by the laws of the country, excluding children born to ambassadors and invading military.
Allegiance was said by Mr Justice Story to be nothing more than the tie duty of obedience of a subject to the sovereign under whose protection he is United States v Wong Kim Ark 18 Sup Ct 456 461, 169 US 649, 42 L Ed 890

Amy v. Smith, 11 Ky. 326, 340 (Ky. 1822)
The 5th section of the 2d article provides, “that no person except a natural born citizen,” shall become president. A plain acknowledgment, that a man may become a citizen by birth, and that he may be born such.
A View of the Constitution of the United States of America (1829), by William Rawle, p. 86
The citizens of each state constituted the citizens of the United States when the Constitution was adopted. The rights which appertained to them as citizens of those respective commonwealths, accompanied them in the formation of the great, compound commonwealths which ensued. They became citizens of the latter, without ceasing to be citizens of the former, and he who was subsequently born a citizen of a state, became at the moment of his birth a citizen of the United States. Therefore every person born within the United States, its territories or districts, whether the parents are citizens or aliens, is a natural born citizen in the sense of the Constitution, and entitled to all the rights and privileges appertaining to that capacity.
Leake v. Gilchrist, 13 N.C. 73 (N.C. 1829)
The country where one is born, how accidental soever his birth in that place may have been, and although his parents belong to another country, is that to which he owes allegiance. Hence the expression natural born subject or citizen, & all the relations thereout growing. To this there are but few exceptions, and they are mostly introduced by statutes and treaty regulations, such as the children of seamen and ambassadors born abroad, and the like.
The Western Miscellany, Volume 1, July 1848 to July 1849 (1849), by Benjamin Franklin Ells, pp. 115-16.
Law of Aliens and Natives
What is the general division of the inhabitants of every country? Into aliens and natives.
Who are termed natives by the laws of this country? All persons born within the jurisdiction of the United States, together with those who were resident citizens at the time of the Declaration of Independent, though born elsewhere, and who deliberately yielded to it an express or implied sanction, is termed a Native.
…
How are the rights of citizenship to be acquired? An alien may become a citizen after he has resided five years in the country, by complying with the provisions of the naturalization laws; and the minor children of a person thus naturalized, if dwelling in the United States, shall be deemed citizens. A person availing himself of these laws, becomes entitled to all the privileges and immunities of natural born citizens, except that a residence of seven years is requisite to enable him to hold a seat in Congress, and that no person except a natural born citizen, is eligible to the office of President of the United States.

to Tuci78,
Now that Senator Dodd has announced he has prostate cancer, did you hear if he is going to France, Canada or England for his treatments??
I'll bet on France where the cure rate is around 60%, or England or Canada where the cure rate is around 50%.
Why would he ever stay in a “broken down” US health care system with a cure rate of nearly 92%. It would not make any sense to use a “broken down” system. Would it?
The Marxist will leave you for dead just to have total control over you.
As Churchill said, “Socialism gives everyone en equal opportunity to be miserable”
Senator Dodd, do the right thing for socialized health care and go to France for your treatments.
Death will only be a few short months away. Enjoy your Socialism in France as long as you can.

The Marxist think in grand Utopian terms of helping the people.
They never think in terms of taking from one citizen by FORCE and giving to another citizen they prefer or control.
That is a classic definition of slavery. I thought we had a civil war to end slavery.
It's trying to come back as socialism in the US. One citizen is a government slave to another citizen.
How much more evil and immoral can a system be??

We don't know because we do NOT have an official copy of the birth certificate showing those facts. Just a computer generated graphic of nonsense.
Teddy Roosevelt has a National Historic site showing his actual place of birth. Where's Obama's National Historic site going to be??
Since Factcheck.org posted the admission that Obama's birth was governed by the BNA of 1948 meaning that Obama was governed by Great Britain in 1961. And, there is no record he ever renounced his British citizenship under British law. Therefore, he is still a British citizen as of today.

Now the simple facts which naturalborn was made aware of but which he somehow seems to fail to recollect. The important fact is that the temporary dual allegiance is of no relevance to the concept of natural born as long as the person is a child. Once he reaches the age of majority, he can chose to continue one of them. In the case of President Obama, his birth was governed by US law, which made him a natural born citizen of the US by virtue of being born on US soil, in addition to that, Obama's status was also guided by British law, which of course has no relevance in the US. When Kenya became independent, Obama's status was guided by Kenya law and his status expired when Obama reached the age of majority when he did not swear an oath to Kenya.
By any legal standard thus, President Obama is a natural born citizen of the United States and eligible. And these are the facts with which Naturalborn is struggling in his denial of fact.
British Nationality Act of 1948 (Part II, Section 5): Subject to the provisions of this section, a person born after the commencement of this Act shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if his father is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time of the birth.
Obama’s British citizenship was short-lived. On Dec. 12, 1963, Kenya formally gained its independence from the United Kingdom. Chapter VI, Section 87 of the Kenyan Constitution specifies that:
1. Every person who, having been born in Kenya, is on 11th December, 1963 a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies or a British protected person shall become a citizen of Kenya on 12th December, 1963…
2. Every person who, having been born outside Kenya, is on 11th December, 1963 a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies or a British protected person shall, if his father becomes, or would but for his death have become, a citizen of Kenya by virtue of subsection (1), become a citizen of Kenya on 12th December, 1963.
As a citizen of the UKC who was born in Kenya, Obama’s father automatically received Kenyan citizenship via subsection (2). So given that Obama qualified for citizen of the UKC status at birth and given that Obama’s father became a Kenyan citizen via subsection (1), it follows that Obama did in fact have Kenyan citizenship after 1963. So The Rocky Mountain News was at least partially correct.
But the paper failed to note that the Kenyan Constitution prohibits dual citizenship for adults. Kenya recognizes dual citizenship for children, but Kenya’s Constitution specifies that at age 21, Kenyan citizens who possesses citizenship in more than one country automatically lose their Kenyan citizenship unless they formally renounce any non-Kenyan citizenship and swear an oath of allegiance to Kenya.
Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982.

Another relevant piece of evidence
In a letter from Mr Grenham to Mr Runyon
Washington April 19 1895 SIR
Your No 232 of the 28th ultimo in relation to the citizenship of one Charlie Eirlich, a minor born in the United States has been received. After reciting the facts you say As he was born in the United States and does not appear to be subject to any foreign power (the German Government it appears makes no claim that he is a German subject). I regarded him as being a citizen of the United States and entitled to a passport accordingly and one was therefore issued to him as desired This implies that you had in mind section 1992 Revised Statutes which reads “All persons born in the United States and not subject to any foreign power excluding Indians not taxed are declared to be citizens of the United States”.
This section is taken literally from section 1 of the civil rights act of April 9 1866 portions of which were embodied in the fourteenth amendment to the Constitution which reads “All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside”
In delivering the opinion of the circuit court of the United States in California in re Look Tin Sing 21 Fed Rep 905 Justice Field said “A person born in the United States of Chinese parents not engaged in the diplomatic service of any foreign government is born subject to the jurisdiction of the United States and is a citizen thereof under the provisions of the fourteenth amendment to the national Constitution”
This ruling was followed in re Wong Gan 36 Fed Rep 554. Ehrlich is a citizen of the United States irrespective of any claim of any other Government to his allegiance and you correctly issued a passport to him

Our brethren it seems to us construe the 14th Amendment as if it read “All persons born subject to the jurisdiction of or naturalized in the United States are citizens of the United States and of the State in which they reside” whereas the Amendment as it is implies in respect of persons born in this country that they may claim the rights of national citizenship from and after the moment they become subject to the complete jurisdiction of the United States. This would not include the children born in this country of a foreign minister for the reason that under the fiction of extraterritoriality as recognized by international law such minister though actually in a foreign country is considered still to remain within the territory of his own State and consequently he continues Subject to the laws of his own country both with respect to his personal status and his rights of property and his children though born in a foreign country are considered as natives Halleck Internal L ch 10 sec 12 Nor was plaintiff born without the jurisdiction of the United States in the same sense that the subject of a foreign State born within the territory of that State may be said to have been born without the jurisdiction of our government.

Canada has some of the best cancer survival rates in the world, and doctors are pointing to our much-maligned public health-care system as the reason.
In a report on worldwide cancer survival rates, Canada ranked near the top of the 31 countries studied with an estimate five-year survival rate of 82.5 per cent.
For breast cancer, Cuba had the highest survival rates — another country with free health care. The United States was second, and Canada was third, with 82 per cent of women surviving at least five years.
Wow, Cuba…

An Outstanding WSJ Editorial
Obama has already provided a legal birth certificate demonstrating that he was born in Hawaii. No one has produced any serious evidence to the contrary. Absent such evidence, it is unreasonable to deny that Obama has met the burden of proof. We know that he was born in Honolulu as surely as we know that Bill Clinton was born in Hope, Ark., or George W. Bush in New Haven, Conn.
The release of the obsolete birth certificate would not “resolve the issue” to those for whom it is not already resolved. They claim without basis that today’s birth certificate is a fake; there is nothing to stop them from claiming without basis that yesterday’s is as well.
The president would gain nothing politically for his trouble. By acknowledging the birthers’ demands, he would lend them a modicum of credibility. By ignoring them, he actually reaps political benefits from their efforts. His critics, even those who are not birthers, end up looking like cranks by association. His supporters use the birthers to paint Obama foes as racist–which is probably unfair even to the birthers, as we argued Tuesday, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t effective.

nbc1 is neither a socialist nor flinging shit.
But of course, it's easier to call one's opponent a socialist or a Marxist rather than engage in a mature conversation on the merits.
We see this happen all over again with health insurance reform. People are 'scared' into believing that this is an effort for socialized, government healthcare when in fact all it does is provide a public option. If the government is so poor at running healthcare insurance, even though they seem to do quite well with medicare etc, why are the insurance companies running scared of a little competition?
Rep Weiner has introduced an amendment to eliminate medicare. Would be fascinating to see what the Republicans will do?
While certainly not expecting his amendment to pass–let alone receive a single vote–Weiner is using the amendment to force a vote on a “government run” program that most lawmakers support.
Weiner wants the lawmakers who oppose including a so-called “public option” in healthcare reform to take a stand on whether government is capable of running a healthcare program.
“It's put-up or shut-up time for the phonies who deride the so-called 'public option,” Rep. Weiner said.

Agreed.
The healthcare debate is one-sided, to me. I'm perfectly healthy and have no need for any medical care. And even I can see that the present system is unreliable, inefficient, immoral, and most importantly, unsustainable.
You see how far the “get government out of healthcare” argument goes when you tell a room full of seniors, I mean voters, to give up Medicare. *crickets*
Yet Reagan railed against Medicare over and over as “socialized medicine.” Hey look, there goes the boogey man!
So you've also got to look at the VA, which has higher patient approval ratings than any other health care provider. It's well-run and it's good enough for our most patriotic and brave Americans. Ought to be good enough for the flag-wavers as well as those whose flags are on their uniforms.
The public option is what exposes the insurance companies, Republicans, and other defenders of the status quo as disingenuous liars.
If the public option is bad, no one will choose it = you have nothing to fear.
If the public option is good, people will choose it = you have healthy American free-market competition. And nothing to fear. Right? Right? Where you going?
To me that's the whole issue. No one doubts that the healthcare system underperforms relative to other developed industrialized countries. So fix it. You don't have to copy everyone else's plan. Just fix this one.
Public option is fundamental to that fix, unless someone comes up with something besides the nonsense about letting the present market players continue playing the market in the same way they always have.

AristotletheHun is on other threads initiating contact with a conservative woman named Elsbeth. She posted things and he posted things and they made arrangements to communicate off the thread. He invited her, on the thread, to review her off-thread messages. She did.
The following absurd and spooky post from Aristotle transpired. I present it because it shows 70-year-old Aristotle's mind unraveling before your very eyes. Be warned…
“You know who I am. You know where I live. You know my phone number. You have my email address. You have “researched” me by being to my clinic web site, checking my Psychology Today verification, the Florida Department of Professional Regulation, and my educational history. Yet all I know about you is your suspicious clandestine behavior.
People are not who they say they are. People are not who they think they are. People are what the do. The only thing I know about you is your behavior. Behavior is the best indicator of who a person is. Your behavior is secretive. Your behavior is finding fault with others. Your behavior is persistent to the point of obsessive. You publically call me a liar. You refuse to communicate with me in an open and conventional manner.
Now, does that add up to the kind of person anyone would want to get to know? For me it is the kind of behavior that makes me very suspicious of your motives and your mental stability.
Oddly, in spite of these observations you almost give the impression that you are sincere and only moderately hostile.
So when I know as much about you as you know about me maybe we can communicate. If you are willing to contact me in a conventional way that is revealing of whom you are, and I can document what is said or have a witness to our conversation I might still consider interaction.
If you are capable of empathy, think of it from my point of view. Wouldn't you be suspicious, or at least cautious if the tables were turned?
I have made it clear before what my terms are for communicating with me. Those terms do not include interacting with an anonymous inquisitor on a public forum or any venue of your choice.
Practice the virtue of full disclosure. Maybe it will catch on and even AKA Obama will finally start being honest with the American people.
What are you and AKA Obama hiding? Why are you hiding it?”–AristotletheHun to Elsbeth
I don't have to tell you folks that Elsbeth wrote back baffled by this nonsense. There's so much projection in there…
“People are not who they say they are. People are not who they think they are. People are what the do. The only thing I know about you is your behavior.

Depends on how the figures are reported, noogie.
As I've observed before, statistical methodology has to be kept constant if the figures are to be reliably compared against each other, and the temptation among government health care programs – as is uniform in all bureaucracies – is to “polish the apple” as much as they can get away with in order to make themselves look good.

Yeah, sure. And the National Socialists were ecstatically sure in ’92 that they had these United States by the short-and-curlies, and could finally cram socialized medicine down upon it.
And the Republicans were gloating in 2004 that they’d created a permanent “Red Nation” which their rivals were never going to wrest out of their grasp.
Little stevie, what is it about the word “perspective” you don’t get?
It ain’t “Freeper” (whatever in hell does that mean?) types you’ve gotta worry about, but a surge in the kind of brownshirt “Silent Majority” that swept the odious, hideous, hateful Richard M. Nixon into power in ’68.
Think a little – if that’s possible. Back in 1930, did it look like that radical, crazed, beer-hall-bound fringe bunch of National Socialist German Workers’ Party jokers were in any position to take over everything from the Rhine to the Baltic? Or even just Bavaria?
Little stevie, you’ve got no idea just how much you and your fellow fellahin are getting under the hides of that “Silent Majority” or “Moral Majority” or whatever fort what you’re doing.

And then you get “The Malevolent Jobholder” controlling your health care.

As for your gushing vision of majoritarian tyranny (like “the public option” is going to be made any more a matter of choice than is “public education,” which you pay for through your taxes whether you want your kids crippled by ex-Education majors?), do you please bear in mind, stevie, that those “bitter,” “clinging” people out of whose lives and property you want to extract the funding for your government-run veterinarian cattle doctoring system are going to backlash at you and yours like an avalanche.
You want “political”?
I don't. I like peace and freedom and “Get off my lawn!”

Not only had you never done debate in high school, but you've never put a scientific paper through peer review. Ever defended a thesis? Hell, you must've. What kind of marshmallows did they throw at you?
Attacking the reliability of the information is what I've done in my discussion of the FactCheck review – can we call it that? – of the supposed print-on-paper COLB allegedly issued to Barry Soetoro in 2007, simply because none of the people in that office demonstrated either the experience, the knowledge, or the means of evaluating and verifying the forensic characteristics of such a Certification of Live Birth. Their information content in that review was flawed, insufficient, unreliable.
Had they called in some several (for with more eyeballs, “all bugs are shallow”) trained, experienced, qualified and impartial examiners to provide a sworn attestation as to the physical qualities of said document, some determination of the item's provenance, validity, information content, and so forth, I'd be happy to say: “Okay, that's his COLB.”
And I'd want to go on to uncracking the vault copy “long-form” birth certificate in the archives of the state of Hawaii for confirmation.

For the last couple of weeks, we've all been laughing heartily at the wacky antics of the “birthers” — the far-right goofballs who claim Barack Obama wasn't really born in Hawaii and therefore the job of president goes to the runner-up, former Miss California Carrie Prejean.
Also, when Obama was sworn in as president, he forgot to give his answer in the form of a question.
And yet, every week, the chorus of conservatives demanding to see his birth certificate grows. It's like they're the Cambridge police, Obama's in his house — the White House — and they need to see some ID.
And there's nothing anyone can do to convince these folks. You could hand them, in person, the original birth certificate and have a video of Obama emerging from the womb with Don Ho singing in the background … and they still wouldn't believe it.

This is a “must read” for the complete conspiracy theorist. Topics include:
* A child is not a natural-born citizen unless both parents are U.S. citizens.
* Obama might be a citizen of Indonesia, not the U.S.
* Obama might have been an illegitimate child.
* Why has Obama spent X dollars defending himself against lawsuits when he could just produce the original birth certificate and make the whole thing go away?
* The serial number of Obama’s birth certificate is fishy.

“Three cheers for free enterprise, and keep them no-bid contracts, subsidies, set-asides, high tariffs, low interest rates, pork projects, sweetheart deals, quotas, and cheap wetback labor a-coming!”
Now, doesn't that sound like the critical constituency for both wings of the big, bipartisan, Boot-On-Your-Neck Party?
Government-connected, back-scratching, hand-washing, “contribution”-making, “access”-buying thugs in the so-called “private sector” who are capitalists in precisely the same way that a rumpsprung streetwalker with twenty years of honorable service can call herself a “virgin.”

Comment posted August 2, 2009 @ 9:19 am
The only problem with the WSJ article is that it confuses a “motion for summary judgment” with a “motion to dismiss.”
Obama's birther suits have been tossed on motions to dismiss. A motion to dismiss takes all the plaintiff's well-pled facts as true, but shows that even accepting the facts as true, no claim has been stated upon which relief can be granted.
A motion for summary judgment, by contrast, is a motion that asks a judge to resolve the case based on the undisputed material facts. In other words, because certain facts cannot be disputed, there is no need for a trial, and the case can be resolved by applying the law to the undisputed facts.
No birther case has gotten to summary judgment. Summary judgment only occurs well after discovery has begun; otherwise you have no opportunity to develop evidence and cross-examine witnesses to determine which facts are disputed, etc.
Technical point but one which I'm sure they'll correct as it has a significant meaning.
Comment posted August 2, 2009 @ 9:24 am
Bearing in mind what I wrote above concerning the mix-up in terminology the WSJ applied to the motions to dismiss the birther suits, check out the following – they even cite Tuci78's dear old westernjournalism.com as an example of a crappy fraudulent birther trick! Tsk!
–”'Why has Obama spent X dollars defending himself against lawsuits when he could just produce the original birth certificate and make the whole thing go away?' X varies, just in our emails of the past 24 hours, from “thousands” to “almost a million”; one reader set the amount at “$950,000.” As far as we know, all these estimates have a common source: thin air.
In any case, while this question sounds eminently reasonable, in fact it betrays a complete lack of understanding of the legal process. The “defense” against these frivolous lawsuits has consisted of filing a motion for summary judgment, which in every case has been granted.
In a motion for summary judgment, a defendant in a lawsuit asks the judge to dismiss the case as meritless before trial. In considering whether to grant such a motion, the judge is obliged to treat all facts in dispute as if they were resolved in the plaintiff’s favor. He may dismiss the case only if he finds it is without merit as a matter of law. The defendant’s introduction of additional factual evidence into the record would make the process more costly and time-consuming, not less.
The production of a 1961 birth certificate would make these lawsuits “go away” only if one assumes that it would persuade the plaintiffs to withdraw their claims, or not to file them in the first place. This assumption is completely fanciful. As we noted yesterday, birthers “claim without basis that today’s birth certificate is a fake; there is nothing to stop them from claiming without basis that yesterday’s is as well.” Sure enough, an outfit styling itself the Western Center for Journalism [this is westernjournalism.com] has produced what purports to be a report from “an investigator” commissioned by “a retired CIA officer”–neither of them has a name–arguing that the original birth certificate might be fraudulent.”
Wow. Sounds like what I've been writing for two weeks. Except I didn't call it a motion for summary judgment, because it's not that.
Comment posted August 2, 2009 @ 9:30 am
And of course, the WSJ also deals with Tuci78's favorite Prominent White Person, Mrs. Nordyke!
” • The serial number of Obama’s birth certificate is fishy. We’re including this one just because it is so much fun. Earlier this week the Honolulu Advertiser reported that 82-year-old Eleanor Nordyke had provided the newspaper with copies of the old-style birth certificates for her twin daughters, born in the same hospital as Obama on Aug. 5, 1961, the day after the president’s birth. Jerome Corsi of WorldNetDaily looked at the certificates and offered this analysis of the serial numbers:
Susan Nordyke was born at 2:12 p.m. Hawaii time and was given No. 151-61-10637, which was filed with the Hawaii registrar Aug. 11, 1961.
Gretchen Nordyke followed at 2:17 p.m. and was given No. 151-61-10638, which was also filed with the Hawaii registrar Aug. 11, 1961.
According to a version of Obama’s purported short-form certificate available from FactCheck.org, Obama was given a higher registration number than the Nordyke twins. The online image indicates the number is No. 151-1961-10641, even though he was born Aug. 4, 1961, the day before the twins, and his birth was registered with the Hawaii registrar three days earlier, Aug. 8, 1961.
The middle figure in Obama’s purported registration also is different than the Nordykes’. Obama’s is 1961, indicating the year, while the Nordykes’ is merely 61.
One explanation for the out-of-order serial numbers might be that several serialized stacks of birth certificates were made available at different hospitals.
Another possibility is that Obama’s number is not a genuine registration number created in 1961 but was issued when the short-form document was generated during the 2008 presidential campaign.
Corsi gives equal weight to these “possibilities” even though the first one is innocuous and makes complete sense, whereas the second presupposes that the officials who administer Hawaii’s vital records are parties to some sort of conspiracy. Someone must have taken Occam’s razor away from him for fear that he would cut himself.
As to why the old-style certificate says only “61” where the modern one says “1961,” Corsi might want to consult his own Web site for the explanation.
Several readers have called our attention to an article by Andy McCarthy of National Review in which he partially dissents from his own magazine’s editorial renouncing birtherianism. Even McCarthy, however, scoffs at the birthers:
The overwhelming evidence is that Obama was born an American citizen on Aug. 4, 1961, which almost certainly makes him constitutionally eligible to hold his office. . . . The mission of National Review has always included keeping the Right honest, which includes debunking crackpot conspiracy theories. The theory that Obama was born in Kenya, that he was smuggled into the U.S., and that his parents somehow hoodwinked Hawaiian authorities into falsely certifying his birth in Oahu, is crazy stuff. “
Hey, Tuci, get all that? Thought you told me you LIKED the McCarthy article? I wondered why, given that even he thinks your birtherism buffoonery is “crazy stuff!”
So much for Mrs. Nordyke. So much for the whole birther thing. Back to life sucking because the President's black, birthers!

Comment posted August 3, 2009 @ 12:02 am
Much as I can’t disagree with you on releasing documentation on “state-sponsored torture,” I’ve got to wonder if the redaction from those documents of certain information really isn’t justified by the need to secure actionable intelligence from disclosure to demonstrably hostile and dangerous enemies of this nation’s people and government.
In criminal proceedings, rules of evidence correctly oblige disclosure of precisely every jot and tittle of information whereby a case is established against a defendant so that all participants in the judicial process can examine that information and evaluate its qualities and provenance.
In actions against what has come to be called “an enemy combatant,” the discovery process can be leveraged by the combatant’s fellows to gain potentially useful (and therefore damaging) insight into military and diplomatic intelligence-gathering efforts, either to close those conduits of information – almost invariably murdering or violently intimidating “human assets” who had disclosed such information, and might be expected to provide further information in future – or to feed “disinformation” through them to degrade the effectiveness of decisions based thereupon.
This isn’t something that can be summarily dismissed. There are people’s lives at stake in more ways than one. The co-religionists (and I use that in a manner of speaking merely) of these “enemy combatants” have demonstrated their own willingness to torture far more execrably than U.S. military officers done in interrogating their own captives, and to murder in great masses the people of “the Great Satan.”
That Barry Soetoro should have no real objection to Dubbya’s violations of individual rights should come to you as no surprise whatsoever, stevie. He is, after all, a socialist, and to the socialist, the rights of the individual human being matter not one little bit.

Britain can make whatever laws it wants. No one in Kenya gave a shit after 1963, when Kenya became independent.
Your argument would render the birth certificate irrelevant to the eligibility issue. Instead, the birth certificate is the ONLY thing that matters. And the COLB is the only birth certificate Hawai'i issues.

And by the way, WND posted an article on August 23, 2008 that confirmed the COLB is authentic! They even indicated that the people who say it is inauthentic ADDED stuff to their own version of the COLB that was not there before.

Here's a bit of the WND article:
“Taitz told WND that the document came from an anonymous source who doesn't want his name known because 'he's afraid for his life.'
Taitz's motion, filed yesterday in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, requests the purported evidence of Obama's birth – both the alleged birth certificate and foreign records not yet obtained – be preserved from destruction, asks for permission to legally request documents from Kenya and seeks a subpoena for deposition from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
'I filed the motion with the court asking for expedited discovery, which would allow me to start subpoenas and depositions even before Obama and the government responds,' Taitz told WND. 'I am asking the judge to give me the power to subpoena the documents from the Kenyan embassy and to require a deposition from Hillary Clinton so they will be forced to authenticate [the birth certificate].”
So you have Orly Taitz procuring the document from an anonymous source. She wants to take Hillary Clinton's deposition.

When “the rich” are taxed proportionately less heavily than the rest of us – because they buy themselves political favor with the officers of civil government, that is unjust.

The right-wing cannot stand Orly. They're the ones trying to get her to go away.
The left wing wants to get her on as many television and cable network comedy shows as possible. They don't even have to tell her it's a comedy. Her serious stuff kills!
Hey, by the way, that caps lock thing is very persuasive. You should have thought of that before. Could have won a shitload of arguments instead of getting exposed as an imbecile.

I would like to see him take more progressive stands on things like releasing documents re state-sponsored torture.
But I cannot complain about that. He did not campaign as a progressive. He campaigned as a moderate. During the campaign he sided with Bush on telecom immunity re: warrantless wiretapping. I found that disappointing. But he let me know where he stands and consequently I'm not disappointed with what he turned out to be.
The only people disappointed are those who believed something he never said. He put it best – he is a blank slate upon which people project their own images.
YOU, for example, project WAY too much onto him to be taken seriously. This would be a concern if being taken seriously was among your goals.

The “CERTIFIED” copy of the birth certificate from Kenya is dated Feb 14, 1964.
It's just a few days before the Obama's divorce final date on March 20, 1964.
This “CERTIFIED” copy was probably necessary to complete the divorce action for Obama's mother. This very real looking Certified copy, with signature, probably came from Hawaii divorce files.

I also liked reading Henry Beard's and Douglas Kenney's Bored of the Rings (1969). I've never relied upon it, however, as a source of material to support a reasoned argument.
It would be worthwhile to directly consult Hawaii state government vital statistics archives to verify the certificate number 151-1961-10641 (or 151-61-10641), to ascertain the specific delivery to which it was allocated, and to discover the names of the parents associated therewith..
Has this been done? The article in The Wall Street Journal doesn't appear to stipulate.
As for Mrs. Nordyke's delivery, the fortunate preservation of copies made for the family in 1961 of the original “long-form” birth certificates completed in the hospital demonstrate the information contained in such documents, and reflects what should be present – in full – in Hawaii state government archives if Barry Soetoro had, indeed, been born in Kapi'olani Maternity and Gynecological Hospital on August 4, 1961, as he and his handlers claim.
The copies of these documents being pridefully displayed by Mrs. Nordyke to the reporters of the Advertiser (and she having been so gracious as to provide them to the newspaper for graphic reproduction and publication), the wonderment regarding Barry Soetoro's refusal to make similarly public his own “long-form” birth certificate cannot but continue unslaked.
As has been repeatedly emphasized, the information contained within one's birth certificate is of no sensitivity whatsoever to almost every American born in these United States. Showing it to another American is about as unremarkable as yanking out one's wallet to show off the pictures of one's kids or grandchildren.
So what's the significance and purpose of this incredible reticence on the part of Barry Soetoro to allow people outside his circle of worshipful partisans to so much as touch the short-form computer print-out of the COLB he'd supposedly had issued to him in 2007, or to examine even a true and verified image of the “long-form” birth certificate competed at the time of his birth?
Comment posted August 2, 2009 @ 10:02 pm
What is it I am looking at, a Nigerian birth certificate?
It does say Coast Province, Mombasa, Kenya, and Coast General Hospital.
It looks far more authentic than a computer generated image from Obama with no signature, hospital or doctors name.

There was no equation and nothing to solve.
1961 – Obama born in Hawaii, thus natural born U.S. citizen with dual citizenship (Britain)
1963 – Kenya becomes independent, transferring the other half of Obama’s citizenship from Britain to Kenya without affecting his natural born U.S. citizenship
1981 – Britain passes a law. No one in Kenya or the U.S. cares. Has nothing to do with anyone who isn’t British.
2008 – President Obama is sworn in.
You apparently need to spend more time in school, chuckles. You learned to make up words and misspell them. That’s solid work for a kindergarten student. Perhaps you need a nap before we try to teach you how to work on double-digit subtraction?

That Slippery Dick committed the blunders of Watergate which resulted in his final departure on Marine-1 (and Jerry Ford’s presidential pardon) has little enough connection with his actions to close the gold window, establish the first peacetime wage and price controls in U.S. history, impose upon the nation such unconstitutional federal agencies as OSHA and the EPA, etcetera, et-interminable-cetera. He was a statist motherfucker who sought, gained, and exercised the powers of the presidency for purposes diametrically opposed to the protection of American citizens’ individual rights, and pursued such courses of action throughout his political life.
His idiot “creationism”-pushing asshole ex-speechwriter Ben Stein can sit in front of a television camera and speak on Nixon’s behalf. I shall not.
And everyone who “tries to help poor people” by picking the pockets of or robbing at gunpoint other people may not necessarily be “some kind of devil,” but he’s most assuredly a thieving sonofabitch, and his actions warrant the retaliatory use of lethal force.

People have started to notice some problems with the document
1. In was dated Feb 14, 1964 and had the designation Republic of Kenya. However that designation was not official until December 1964.
2. It's number 44 O 47 is a bit coincidental with 44th President Obama 47th President
3. The name EF Lavender. Earth Friendly Lavender is a detergent
4. Mombasa did not become part of Kenya until 1963. It used to be part of Zanzibar
5. The Coast General Hospital is actually called the Coast Provincial General Hospital
6. There are unconfirmed statements that women who would give birth in 1961 would go to the “Lady Grigg Maternity Hospital” which was later rolled into the Coast Provincial General hospital.
Compare this with a certified copy of live birth, with raised seal and signature, further verified by the DOH of Hawaii and you can understand why some people may be a bit skeptical.
Note also that another BC from Kenya surfaced on Dutch/Afrikaans security paper stating that this is not an official document but rather a political commentary.
I can't wait for discovery on this one to take place. It's going to be fun…

The quick – I should say “lightning-fast” – action in slamming together the USA PATRIOT Act (Public Law 107-56) and passing it on October 16, 2001, was immediately evidentiary of the fact that it was a gathering of “War on Crime” frankly Nazi wish-fulfillment measures that had been rejected as political death in decades past.
The Congress and Dubbya used the 9/11 events precisely as their National Socialist predecessors in Germany had leveraged the Reichstag fire in 1933.
What's that Rham Emanuel line? “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.”

But it appears increasingly small and pathetic for you to sit there typing up nonsense about him with nothing to back it up but suspicion based on your comic misapprehension of history.
Just because Nixon closed the gold window and opened a can of worms that led to Watergate, does not mean anyone who tries to help poor people is some kind of devil.

I rarely even bother trying to correct all the lies, nonsense and out right stupidity you birthers claim.

I am happy as hell to see you nutjobs out here still pushing your idiocy because the longer you tinfoil hat wearing brigade members are out in public the more seat you're gonna lose.
And ya know what?
That is freaking hilarious

No honor among thieves, my friend.
I'm trying to get all the hours I can. I'd like to move out of my mother's basement this fall. She's got a little shed out back. If I can scrape together enough money to buy a wireless internet router that has effective range out there, I'm all set.
But in this economy…it's proving difficult. So I traded shifts with a few comrades in exchange for a copy of Dreams From My Father that Obama autographed for Bill Ayers. It starts out “thanks for writing this for me, Willie…”

People may not remember but Polarik is the pseudonym for the 'so called expert' who determined that President Obama's COLB was a fake… Ooops… But since people still hold to his opinion, it is fascinating that he has come out to reject the latest BC…

“And what is “legal standard” when compared against political necessity?”
See, that's the problem.
We have the legal standard.
You have the political necessity.
We can do this all day, Tuci. You're the one who wants to see more information. We just want to keep telling you why you don't have any legitimate need to see more information.
How's that burden of proof working out for you? Convince anyone to flout the law yet? Good luck. I'm sure Barry Soetero's downfall is imminent. And the end of the world will be heralded by Pat Boone riding a dinosaur down Fifth Avenue. Watch for it!

Pshaw. Is it a “conspiracy” just because Barry has a few friends and ACORN associates over to brainstorm a way for him to slime into the White House and bring the nation crashing down into chaos and ruination, fertile for the implementation of the socialist paradise?
Well, darn…. When you think about it that way, yeah, it does, doesn't it?
As for Barry spending “another 4 years” in Washington or the rest of his natural life in Marion, Ohio, that's going to be up to President Biden, isn't it?
Comment posted August 3, 2009 @ 4:29 am
Aw, you know that Barry doesn't expect anything of folks like me other than that we pay our taxes, treat his constituents for whatever fees he and his bureaucrats allow us to charge, and sit helplessly while he fucks over our country.
What's getting to him (and to you, too, stevie; admit it) is that there are a helluva lot more “Joe the Plumber” types out there – and their number keeps increasing – who “want to see it so badly,” and his reticence to “show it” gives the average working putz reason to suspect (and I know you hate that word, stevie, but in the corner bars and coffee break rooms and nurses' lounges of America, the rules of evidence prevailing in a court of law matter not a firefly's fart) that Barry is hiding something incriminating in his past personal records, not least of which seems to be in his long-form birth certificate.
Quoting from one of my favorite movies:
“It's not me.“

Little stevie, as an attorney you should know that people cannot live without acting to “flout the law” every day, often with full consciousness of how they're violating this code or side-stepping that regulation, or slipping something to a bureaucrat, or getting paid under the table. It's how Americans get by in these miserable, government-raddled times.
And courtesy of your Marxist Messiah, the Mombasa Mahdi, the faux noir Fraudulence-in-Chief and his co-conspirators in the Congress, it's getting worse and worse and worse and worse.
You're right about “the political necessity” of getting rid of him – or otherwise abating the public health hazard he poses.
And even though you and your fellow fellahin are striving to follow your email orders from Messiah Central as good “left-wing bloggers,” those of us who want President Biden to take his rightful place in that big, comfortable chair behind the Resolute desk are working our civil and dutiful best.

Comment posted August 3, 2009 @ 4:47 am
Was the Constitution ever anything other than a political necessity, Roger?
Well, not according to the folks in Rhode Island, or to the two other New York state delegates to the meeting Hamilton had called in Philadelphia, who walked out of the convention to “amend” the Articles of Confederation and made their way immediately to Albany to warn Governor Clinton of what Hamilton and the other mercantilists were trying to pull off. And Patrick Henry. And George Mason, who had written the Virginia Declaration of Rights and is called “The Father of the Bill of Rights.”
But that's neither here nor there, is it? That legal standards established to protect the rights of the individual from the tyrannies of the majority and other politically powerful factions in our nation can be warped to obstruct justice is a price we must acknowledge and be prepared to pay. It is better that a hundred indisputably criminal malefactors like Barry Soetoro be permitted to run amok than that a single innocent person be punished for a crime he has not committed.
But when you get down to political necessity…
Well, there's something to talk about. Especially given Barry Soetoro's obvious narcissistic personality disorder.
When somebody you must drag down and destroy has obvious psychiatric problems, there's absolutely nothing wrong with exploiting those weaknesses to get traction on the slippery sonofabitch. And there's no reason to give up on this “birth certificate” line of attack just yet.
It only took about 18 minutes of reel-to-reel tape erasure to bring down Tricky Dick, remember.

Doesn't bother me a bit, test-taker. I hope every single “Joe the Plumber” out there goes on TV and expresses his or her opinion.
I can't think of a better way to ensure that society lurches away from Joe the Plumber and toward whatever the hell the alternative is.
The last thing I want is for you birthers to go gently into that good night. People will forget about you and stop thinking about how ridiculous the opponents of Obama and Democrats are. I don't want that to happen. I'd rather make the contrast as stark as possible.
And I want there to be not a sliver of daylight in the public mind between birthers and conservatives. The conservatives' Southern Strategy is what spawned this wave of nativist idiocy 40 years ago, so it serves them right.

Man.
For a minute there I thought we had our Tuci back. I was worried about your flaccid effort re: “mind-altering drugs.”
I thought we were back on course when I saw “Marxist Messiah” etc.
Then I get to the last sentence. You don't want Biden in the Big Chair, do you? I'd have thought that since he's only a lickspittle for Obama and a Democrat himself, you'd want him marched to the Big House.
Do you mean you'd accept Biden as your lawful wedded President, till re-election do you part?
I wondered, in the olden days, what it would take to satisfy you that Obama is legitimate. I gave up on that when I realized how much lead paint exposure you must have had.
But now that you indicate you WANT Biden in office, I'm curious. Would you be satisfied if Obama just flew to Kenya and left Joe the keys to Air Force One?

Oh, of course I don't want Hairplug Joe rightfully taking his place in the office of the presidency, any more than I wanted Crash Test Johnnie installed in that post. I'd like to leave it vacant for the rest of Barry's term, and see how we get by with a sort of perpetual “pocket veto” King Log instead of the King Stork under which we've been suffering for the past century and more.
Might be nice, mightn't it? Congress would have to pass every bill by a majority sufficient to override the “ignored to death” condition imposed by a vacant presidency, the Joint Chiefs of Staff could get along running the military as they decided best, there would be no one to command the sorts of foreign adventures we've been inflicting on the world (and on our own servicemen) for the last ninety years and more, Supreme Court Justices could die or stroke into incapacitation or resign and we'd see the number of geriatric judges dwindle away one by one…
Given what the present state of affairs imposes upon us, what's so bad about that kind of alternative?
But as for satisfying little old me about Barry's “legitimate” status (and, yes, I'm perfectly happy to envision little Barry sitting in the back of the Justice of the Peace's office, scratching himself vigorously while Stanley Ann and Barack Hussein were saying “I do”), I'd like a judge to evaluate the reports of a panel of experienced and trained and therefore qualified forensic documents examiners who had been given access to both the 2007 COLB from which those computer graphic images had been supposedly scanned and the vault “long-form” birth certificate Dr. Fukino has claimed to have viewed.
That'd do nicely. So, of course, would be Barry's hasty departure for Brazil or some other country without strong extradition treaties with these United States.
Comment posted August 3, 2009 @ 5:47 am
I didn't confuse conservative with Republican.
Republicans are doing themselves all the damage I could ask for.
Their latest trick is to try to argue that bad Republicans have misapplied conservative principles. Bush's profligate spending, unnecessary foreign intervention, spying on citizens etc. “betrays conservative principles.”
This way, they hope, people will forgive them for being Republican, and allow them back into power because they think there's something sound about conservative philosophy.
And that's what I don't want. Because it's a crock. Conservative philosophy isn't a philosophy. It's selfish prejudice and bigotry masquerading as a political philosophy.
So the more conservatism is associated with birthers, Freepers, tea-baggers, Argentinean-line-crossers, C-Street-adultery-arrangers, and the like, the happier I am.
Keep stirring up the animals. I'll do the same. With any luck, either you or I will stir other birthers into action. I think it's funny that we have the same goal.
I think the birthers are too desperate to take sides against you. Even naturalborn, who you called “chuckles,” is treating you with the reverence usually afforded an elderly relative who hasn't yet finalized his will.
So I enjoy seeing them twist in the wind and seek shelter in the house that test-taker built. Their inability to understand even the words you use just highlights how ridiculous the birther arguments are – you cannot deny the absurdity inherent in finding yourself aligned with the likes of naturalborn, randypuppy, and AristotlethePerv.
Enemy of my enemy is my friend, but you're at serious risk of “friendly fire” from a goober who cannot tell that being born in Hawaii would give the whole game away. British citizen born!

Yeah? Like “profligate spending, unnecessary foreign intervention, spying on citizens etc.” is supposed to be conservative, stevie? Not according to Robert Taft or Barry Goldwater it wasn't.
The Republicans toyed briefly – and only partially – with conservatism when I was a boy. They gave their best illusion of conservatism with Ronnie Reagan (but that was pretty much a sham). As I've observed the Republican Party in my lifetime has been an unstable and ill-fitting coalition of “Rotarian Socialists,” small-government conservatives, warmongering neocons, theocrats (“social conservatives”), and a damned few proponents of individual rights.
I agree with you that conservatism isn't a philosophy as such, and not even a very good political position to espouse. What, didn't you follow the fucking link and read von Hayek's “Why I Am Not a Conservative,” stevie? Tsk.

OTC, secure diphenydramine (Benadryl), a fairly strong antihistamine and – if she can swallow – give her at least 100 mg.
But only do this if you have the medicine immediately on hand. Whether you can begin a loading dose or not, she must be taken immediately to the nearest urgent-care facility or Emergency Department, where parenteral edications can be administered under the supervision of a physician.
And have them check your blood pressure while you're there, you peanut-pushing racist bastard.

Stephenperry, Thank you for your response.
OK, I’m sure I will come off as disingenuous here, but I’m merely attempting to separate the plausible from the BS. I was thinking the COLB isn’t really conclusive evidence since the State will issue the document to individuals who were not born in Hawaii (whose parent(s) can prove residence of course) up to one year after birth. Plus, the State does not recognize the document as proof of Hawaiian birth in all circumstances. So my reasoning goes that if Obama just released his birth certificate it dispels any assertion of a Kenyan birth. But for whatever reason, he chooses not to. And your right; he doesn’t have to. But why doesn’t he want to? The only things I can surmise is he has something to hide or he’s arrogant. And your right again, there’s no legal basis for this conclusion. But what else is there? I’m not trying to be clever here, I think its an honest question. He has the opportunity to discredit guys like Rush Limbaugh,

Update: Not that I consider Karl Rove an expert on anything but he is on the record that “The Kenyan ‘Birth Certificate’ Is ‘Likely a Forgery’”
Update: Progressive Nation reports Disbarment of Orly Taitz Sought by California Bar which is a false report. A letter of complaint was sent in April to the Chief Trial Counsel of the State Bar of the State of California but so far no evidence of any action.

Update: Salon on Birther leader Orly Taitz loses it, live on MSNBC
But in this case, I think this interview actually served a purpose, as Taitz did a fair amount of damage to her cause all by herself. Anyone who was on the fence and watched the interview could not possibly come away from it thinking she's credible.
Update: Bob Campbell, founder of the so-called “American Grand Jury” comments
I certainly wish Orly well. She is a true Patriot. God Bless her!On the dumb and dumber side are the Obats who are crying foul, whining and peeing in their pants. As I said in the posting, this STILL NEEDS AUTHENTICATION by Orly. So the Obats can just shut up until the final verdict is in but it is sure fun to watch them squirm!
I find it interesting that the Obats can ram a COLB document down our throats for over year and defend it till the cows come home. We post a simple document that looks and feels like the real thing and they go bonkers.
Oooh! I love the crap out of it. I really dislike the “liberal progressives” who hate our Country. I live for the day we can put their little baby Messiah in prison for treason, fraud and espionage. The jerk will deserve everthing that he gets — his racist wife and all the folks and Congress lying on behalf of Obama can join him.

Stephenperry, Thank you for your response.
OK, I’m sure I will come off as disingenuous here, but I’m merely attempting to separate the plausible from the BS. I was thinking the COLB isn’t really conclusive evidence since the State will issue the document to individuals who were not born in Hawaii (whose parent(s) can prove residence of course) up to one year after birth. Plus, the State does not recognize the document as proof of Hawaiian birth in all circumstances. So my reasoning goes that if Obama just released his birth certificate it dispels any assertion of a Kenyan birth. But for whatever reason, he chooses not to. And your right; he doesn’t have to. But why doesn’t he want to? The only things I can surmise is he has something to hide or he’s arrogant. And your right again, there’s no legal basis for this conclusion. But what else is there? I’m not trying to be clever here, I think its an honest question. He has the opportunity to discredit guys like Rush Limbaugh,
Michael Savage, Phillip Berg, Alan Keyes, Jerome Corsi and thousands of others. What does he have to lose?

There are some interesting forensic investigations ongoing to get past the deliberate erasures (performed by an as-yet unnamed “White House lawyer” who's still alive) in that 18-minute segment of the Nixon tapes. Also there's data retrieval ongoing from the physical pages of notes taken by Nixon staffers and held in the national archives. Neat stuff in the not-too-soon offing.
So if that 18-minute erasure and the rest of the stuff on Nixon's tapes wasn't the snowball upon the drifts that started Slippery Dick's slide down the mountainside, you wanna give your vision of the precipitating event?
And the “birther” thing is working out just fine, thanks. Or haven't you noticed that Barry Soetoro still won't provide either his alleged 2007 COLB to a judge or authorize the government of the state of Hawaii to provide to the public a true and verified image of what they're holding in their record in lieu of a legitimate “long-form” birth certificate for Stanley Ann Dunham's little bastard baby?

Comment posted August 13, 2009 @ 3:49 am
Why should any American citizen – natural born or of Barry Soetoro’s status – obey the law?
Article II, Section 1, Paragraph 5 of the U.S. Constitution in this case.
Americans show their birth certificates – the physical documents themselves, not photocopies, not fax transmittals, not computer graphic images made by scanning these documents but the documents themselves – upon demand any time they’re asked to do so, and after the Beltway Sniper episodes they find it wholly unremarkable that they should be expected to show their birth certificates and other points of identification even to renew their drivers’ licenses.
Is your beloved “poverty pimp” snotbucket Barry Soetoro above the law? Is he specially “privileged” and “immune” as little stevie had wined?
Or is he an American citizen working as a public servant, and therefore required to show proof of his qualification to occupy the public office he holds?
Rather you should ask why that fraudulence should not be required to RISE to my level – to the level of the private citizen – you unspeakable dollop of filth.

Were one to start up a bone drill on your skull, rogered, how long would it take to hit whatever you’re using instead of grey matter? I’m betting the neurosurgeon would come up completely dry.
The point, nitwit, is that what your Mombasa Messiah has shown (and all that he has shown) have been alleged reproductions of his abstract (“short-form”) Certification of Live Birth.
Not “the actual copy” – which is to say the computer print-out upon check-type paper, signed and sealed so as to render alterations or forgeries easier to detect, but computer graphic images of what is purported to be an actual document generated by the government of the state of Hawaii.
If the question is asked “How friggin’ stupid do you have to be to take an image of a real document for the document itself?” the answer is “That cement-headed Obamaphile ‘rogerramjet’ pretty much defines it.”
Scanned image. If you believe DailyKos and FactCheck. Scanned. Image.
Not the real thing.
Like I said, where a birth certificate is genuinely required for identification, you cannot get away with faxing it, sending in a photocopy, or scanning it to make a JPG and emailing that as an attachment.
The print-on-paper, signed and sealed physical document is required, if necessary for detailed evaluation by qualified forensic document examiners prepared to attest to that piece of paper’s “genuineness or non-genuineness.”
I realize that you’re feeling no pain whatsoever, rogered.
You’ve got to have functional tissue above the level of the sella turcica for that, and you ain’t got none.

I am not a crook”
I am sad to say that Mr. Obama is becoming more Presidential every day. Spending $1.94 Million dollars to not answer a $10 question sounds crooked to me. Lets face it, even if the birthers are right, I am confident my President could find someone to create a birth record that proves he is Dick Cheney’s Hawaiian brother. The State of Hawaii charges $10 to send the certified copy of your birth certificate to a court. According to the Federal Election Commission, in the first 6 months of 2009 alone, my President has paid the law firm of Perkins Cole $1.94 Million Dollars since becoming President to not give the court that certificate. I don’t know which side is craziest, the Birthers that say he is Canadian or the Anti-Birthers that deny the obvious fact that the President is non-transparently acting like a crook. Change?
In regards to newspaper announcements and websites publishing Mr. Obamas birth certificate, they still do not explain why he does not send that already published birth certificate to the court. At the request of Mr. Obama, he has not allowed anyone to receive and confirm his original records. He has allowed a controlled viewing of a document to a couple of web sites but that is not the same as furnishing a $10 copy to a court of law.
In regards to the election, no matter what the results are, Mr. Obama is our President because the Electoral College already voted for him. It does not matter what the voters think, the electors of the State of California can vote for anyone they want regardless of qualifications. Even though the Constitution states the qualifications for President, they offer no method of enforcement or verification. As for impeachment proceedings, I highly doubt a Democratic majority in both houses of congress will impeach a Democratic President elected by popular vote. The riots on the streets will be unprecedented.

OH geez grow up. HE showed what the State of Hawaii sends to everyone. He didn’t show a photocopy to the people who actually laid hands on it. AS shown in the Factcheck.org report.
Do try to join the 21st Century. NO ONE has their original birth certificate. NO ONE.The state you were born in has it, they just send you copies.

Nope. Barry Soetoro showed computer graphic images (something roughly equivalent to a photocopy in terms of validity) and not the physical document itself.
As for “the people who actually laid hands on it” (and, yes, I know that you’re referring to the FactCheck weenies, none of whom are either officers of the court, competent expert witnesses as to the validity of forensic documents, or anything but Obamaphile worshipers of Barry Soetoro, who – as he had once been – are on the payroll of the Annenberg Foundation), these are neither impartial nor competent witnesses.
Read the “About Us” page on their Web site, rogered. They’re almost entirely journalism school graduates. Not a single trained criminologist or similar technical expert among them.
Quit trying to peddle the FactCheck hand-job as if it meant anything, stupe. This has been fried all to hellangone in these threads. Even little stevie isn’t dumb enough to bring it up anymore.
Again and again and again, where’s the birth certificate?
Those computer graphic images are not evidence, not proof, not more than the illusion of certification supporting your brain-dead whining about how your “poverty pimp” Chicago thug of a faux chief magistrate qualifies as a natural born citizen of these United States.

The weenies at FactCheck are not competent forensic documents examiners. Nor did they utter sworn attestations (admissible in court) to their “findings” on what they may well hav believed was the COLB under discussion.
So Barry’s handlers allegedly provided the purported physical document to the friendly journalism school graduates at FactCheck.
Nice.
So why hasn’t he let it get within miles of impartial expert witnesses capable of attesting as qualified examiners of such documents in a court of law?
He wasn’t afraid to show it to the FactCheck people and yet he won[t put it in front of a judge?
Figure it out, rogered.
Or don’t. Not like anyone cares about you, right?

The more detailed long form of the Birth Cert was examined by the U.S. District court in August of 2008, and Honolulu Immigration Rep last year. Both confirmed Obama is a natural born citizen. Long form copies of a birth cert are rarely released to the public due to privacy issues related to various family members, and doctors. As you can see your conspiracy theories are not valid.

Well, no disrespect to mccain and his camp. But there was no certificate provided for barry soetoro. a certification of live birth was shown. a certificate of live birth or birth certificate is what was requested.
the issue with indonesia is: when and how did the occupant of the white house aka john doe’s name become barry soetoro. was it by adoption, legal name change, fraud, etc.
the issue from indonesia to america is: when and how was his name subsequently changed to the current name he is using. by legal name change, simply changing his name, fraud, etc.
And mccain who’s parents were both USA citizens showed his birth certificate when it was requeted. I would have given mccain the same response if he did not show his Birth certificate, under these circumstances. so no one is just picking on barry soetoro dunham barak hussein obama aka john doe

It is not EVEN that Barry Soetoro has presented a certification of live birth (COLB) in physical, print-on-checksafe-paper, signed and sealed form.
No party outside of the Obama Campaign Headquarters and (allegedly) the personnel of the Annenberg Foundation’s supposedly “nonpartisan” private Web site of FactCheck.org have ever allegedly handled that COLB, which was claimed to have been uttered by the government of the State of Hawaii in 2007.
In other words, not even of that hint of a ghost of an illusion of a documentary attestation of our Fraudulence-in-Chief’s fable of birth elsewhere than his native Mombasa has ever been put into the hands of a judge or qualified forensic documents examiner.
Were the 112th Congress next January to demand of that son of Africa such legal documentation as is required of a resident of New Jersey to renew his driver’s license, we could see Joseph Biden ascending to the presidency in the time it takes for that brain-damaged idiot to take the oath, watching the federal marshals hustle Barry out the back entrance in handcuffs.

sing51074,
1) Hawaii does NOT release original long form birth certificates. They are archived. Any given birther is not allowed to handle an original birth certificate.. any more then they’re allowed to go hold the original Declaration of Independence. If Hawaii opened up viewing of the original archival document.. how many birthers would have to hold it kill the conspiracy theories? 1, 10, 100,000? It doesn’t matter because the more you disprove a conspiracy, the more the paranoid believe it’s an even greater conspiracy (which begs the question, why do I bother?)
2) The Hawaiian Governor (republican) and the various state officials with access have certified the original is on hand and authentic.
3) The birth cert that was released is a 100% legally valid birth certificate. High rez images with raised seal are available at factcheck.org. You can go look at the birth certificate that was valid when Obama got his social security number, and his license, and his passport. It was also good enough for the Secret Service when they vetted him. The only people who this is not good enough for are those that hate him, and are looking for any excuse to believe he’s illegitimate.
4) What are you talking about with Mccain’s parents releasing his birth certificate. John Mccain Jr. (his father) died in 1981. I’m not sure if his mother is alive or when she may have died. When, exactly, do you believe that his “parents” produced his birth certificate?
5) I can find no evidence the Obama ever took the name Soetoro other than specious claims at right-wing web sites an in proven-false chain mails.
The theory seems to stem from two fallacious claims.
a) That Obama must have been a Naturalized Indonesian citizen (taking his step-father’s name) because the US had a travel ban on Afganistan when he visited the country in 1981 with school friends.
This false because there was no travel ban to Afganistan in 1981.
b) That Obama registered at Occidental college on a Fullbright scholarship as a forigner (thus he must have used Soetoro’s name.. Kenya’s constitution explicitly bars dual citizenship so that delusion doesn’t work here).
This is provably false because he didn’t not have a Fullbright scholarship at Occidental and because Occidental provided examples of Obama using the name Obama on campus.
All of this is support at Factcheck.org.

His legal name was NEVER Barrack Soetoro. You all made that up, just like the rest of the ‘birther’ conspiracies. You do realize that Barrack Obama as a 6 yr. old had to get a passport before traveling to Indonesia, don’t you? That is how you travel abroad and that is how you get back into the U.S. His birth record was provided to the State Dept. when he was 6. That is how he returned to Hawaii to resume school there after his mother split with his step-father, buying showing his US Passport. Where do you get this John Doe stuff? I gave the State Dept. a copy of my birth record, one that had the same info as President Obama’s and that got me a passport. It had NO doctor signiture. They didn’t send me a letter saying, “well Mr. John Doe, who are you really?” But then again, I was subject to bigotry because of my name or family history.

Why does he have to produce another birth record anyways? To prove he wasn’t born where there is NO evidence whatsoever that he was born there(Kenya)? He has a passport, you have to provide that to the State Dept. to get a passport for God’s sake. You can’t just dismiss the birth announcement either. Why would there be a birth announcement? He won the popular and electoral collge vote, what are you going on about? He’s not violated any of the qualifications to be president, none. And you can’t prove it. Have you noticed that not ONE constitutional lawyer, not one judge has stood up and said, wait, this is wrong!!! Isn’t that a bit odd?
Comment posted February 16, 2011 @ 9:38 am
It’s logically impossible to prove a negative. The positive proposition – that Barry Soetoro is eligible under Article 2, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution to exercise the authority of the office into which he had slimed – can be proven with documentation easily presented by Barry in any court of law.
At extraordinary legal cost (most recent estimates of payments made to law firms like Perkins Coie run as high as $2.4 million), Barry has evaded the obligation even to put into the hands of such a court the Certification of Live Birth (COLB) from which his campaign headquarters allegedly scanned those computer graphic images in 2008.
The cost of securing another such certified, printed-on-paper, signed COLB from the government of the state of Hawaii is somethign like $15.00.
When a Chicago machine corruptocrat like your beloved Obamessiah stonewalls the provision of personal past records the way Barry has, to this kind of level, at these kinds of costs, it doesn’t take a genius of political insight to observe that the subject of inquiry is concealing something.
Naturally, a “LIberal” fascist in accord with Barry’s criminal unconstitutionality would seek to aid our Mombasa Messiah in the concealment of such vulnerability, particularly as it’s very likely that the concealed information will effectively nullify Barry’s reign of public malfeasance. This explains your continuing protestations, doesn’t it?
Hell, devin. You KNOW that the arrogant bastich can’t prove that he was born in these United States, don’tcha? Nothing else explains your continued sweating persistence in defending this criminal.

You just don’t get it, you don’t get how the whole thing works. You have NO evidence to show he was born elsewhere. NONE. Stonewalling? Didn’t you read the lawsuits were all found to be frivolous! FRIVOLOUS. Orly Taitz almost got thrown out of court. haha @ my continued protestations and “sweating”, you my friend, are on the fringe. The whole of congress must be liberal fascists for not pursuing this. No one there thinks he was born in Kenya. There is no evidence for it, NONE. NO ONE in the Supreme Court has stood up and said his citizenship is even in question, no less that he is a criminal. Have you notice any constitutional lawyers or State dept. members standing up and sayinng, hey! this is wrong! The burden of proof is on you and your ilk. Can you explain how he has a passport? How he got back into the country at age 10 after leaving Indonesia? You do know he has to have a passport to travel to Indonesia etc. and to return to the US, don’t you? You do know to get a passport you have to provide a certificed copy of your birth record, don’t you? You won’t and can’t address any of those points.
I dare you to show anything at all reliable on those estimates on his legal costs, especially considering he wasn’t even named in many of the lawsuits, it was election boards etc. And spending money in your defense does NOT prove you have anything to hide. You pretend in your first paragraph to have some understanding of logic, but that was just another smoke screen, like calling me a fascists.

He’s not avoiding the situation because there is no situation he’s as much of a citizen as John McCain. If you are really this worried vote for Ralph Nadar.

So it’s 3 years later, he’s still the president. I’m guessing they’re still working on the case huh?

Line 10 Obama’s bc father Kenyan. He is not eligible.
The 14th ammendment which you so dearly adhere to never mentions natural born. In order to be natural born you cn never be under another sovereign. Obama was under four….US, Kenya, Indonesia and Britan. He has used those to violate US law when he thought it was necessary. For example when it was illegal for a US citizen to travel to pakistan how did he get a passport to go there?
All the Obama zombies can’t see that the man is a total fraud. He sat on the committee that tried to prove McCain was ineligible. He signed a Senate resolution agreeing that natural born means having two citizen parents. Obama has never denied his father was Kenyan and that makes him ineligible.
By using the not standing argument they got him into office and he’s spent millions of dollars to keep the truth from the public eye. It doesn’t matter if he was born in Hawaii…the Constitution says NO PERSON CAN HOLD THE OFFICE WHO IS NOT NATURAL BORN and Obama is not.
If they cant convince you of that then they bring up the idea that if he’s remove from office that there will be race riots. I thing dark-skinned americans are tired of being tools and they want him out as well.

Look at his actions he just took 30 million barrels of our strategic reserve to give to Europe. He started a war in Libya to fight for europes oil…what will it take for you to see he’s not one of us.

Hey moron, the derogatory term birther is just another form of racism which is another word for liberal. Your passport story is total bullshit. He flew to Pakistan as a 20 year old on an Indonesian passport. All of this supposed travel you credit him with as a six year old, you would know if you could read. He traveled on his mother’s passport and there are documents indicating her requesting he be removed from her passport when he was old enough to have his own.
You American hating liberal scum have an apparent death wish as you blindly support this total fraud exhibiting classic lemming mentality. I don’t care what party this sub-human fraud in the White House claims, I’m don’t vote party…….he’s an ineligible lying criminal with no real non-forged birth certificate ( here’s a simple one for you single digit IQ toads, African is not a race, it’s a continent). In 1961 you might want to go with ‘Negro’ or ‘Negroid’ as race, anything else is a non-starter!. Funny his mother is listed as a Caucasian, not American! Funny nobody knew this reject growing up, nobody in Columbia for instance because he didn’t go there! No doctor or nurse has come forward nor any hospital outside of Kenya to claim him to this day because they all know he is aberration, a non-entity, a trained puppet married to a tele-prompter. You sit by and pray to this despicable excuse for a human being while he goes about committing one treasonous act after another, shredding the Constitution, violating the oath he never really took with the intent of leaving our nation in ruins, as you suicidal nut jobs defend the indefensible, amazing! By the way I served our nation in war time , I have held fast to my oath and way better more deserving brothers of mine died so that you could continue to breed. It disgusts me to no end. My advice to you is to bone up on your begging delivery, your going to need it!

The Maui News interviewed two retired kindergarten teachers, Aimee Yatsushiro and Katherine Nakamoto, who recalled a chubby little 5-year-old Barack Obama in theirkindergarten class. Maui News, Jan. 21, 2009: Yatsushiro, a retired teacher from Kahului, served as a student teacher from September to December 1966 at Noelani Elementary School on Oahu. Her supervising teacher was Kazuko Sakai, the primary educator for about 25 students in a kindergarten class that included a boy named Barack “Barry” Obama.
“He was a cute, likable, heavy build-child,” Yatsushiro recalled. “I could visualize Barry smiling, dressed in his long-sleeved, white shirt tucked into his brown Bermuda shorts, and wearing laced shoes.”
Nakamoto, also a retired teacher now living in Wailuku, coincidentally was assigned to the same kindergarten class, only this time from January to June of 1967. Nakamoto said she never used a nickname for the student. “We called him Barack. . . . He was very well mannered, respectful, confident and independent.”

Since none of what you just said is true, it is all well, totally irrelevant.
Comment posted July 11, 2011 @ 8:02 pm
What race does “birther” refer to anyway? It doesn’t. While we are on race, “American” is NOT a race.
And lots of people from Harvard and Columbia have talked about him. Columbia certainly isn’t denying he went there, isn’t that odd? Actually, they are rather proud, as any university would be, to have had an American President attend their school.
The thing is, I don’t think you yourself have been anywhere near a university, except maybe to root for a football team(at a school you didn’t attend).
Kids do NOT get on their mother’s passport. There are no documents indicating anything you said, because that is not how things work. Children get their own passports. A quick search on how to obtain passports on the State Dept. website will clear that up for you. You have no proof whatsoever to believe he had an Indonesian passport. He was an American, like his mother, living in Indonesia. He flew there with an American passport. How do you think he got back into the country?? There was no travel ban ever in Pakistan during that time, so you can toss that idea out.
Apparently you served so you could use that service to toss out during an argument. I don’t think that is honorable at all. You served, you are no better than any other American. And the fact that you served doesn’t mean you aren’t totally wrong about everything you vomited out of your mouth in your post.
