But the most compelling "conspiracy theory" from a woman in California:
"it's reminiscent of the `German thing' - where ordinary, proud, conservative, responsible Germans suddenly realized that their livelihoods and perhaps their lives depended upon supporting a powerful `new order.'
It was none other than Josef Goebbels who said that the way to take over a country by a relatively minute cabal of fascists was to gain control of two entities: the media and the armed forces. That's why we heard Obama promise a national police force that was just as well- funded and powerful as the U.S. military.
"I suspect," she continued, "that a memo went out en masse to the media from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) not to mention the birth certificate subject under penalty of losing their licenses to broadcast.
Now we have practically a national shutdown of the media, and the only entity that would have had the power to bring this about is the FCC - and not a Saudi who owns six percent of Fox News! For the entire airwaves, in unison, to suddenly take the position that Obama's birth certificate is out of bounds means that they've been ordered not to discuss it.
"Think about it...every single one of the major radio hosts rebuked callers at the same time - and on the same day in most cases!
My guess is that big guns from ACORN and also from the Nation of Islam have gotten to the FCC and have told them in no uncertain terms that if Obama is blocked from becoming POTUS, there will be hell to pay all over America. And obviously these threats were deemed credible enough by those making the decisions at the FCC that they have succeeded.
This is nothing less than a political coup d'état!

Sorry to disagree, but what would be better for the careers of Rush, Hannity, et all: caving to an FCC threat, or exposing that threat to the 24/7 harsh glare of intense media coverage?
Also, I can see a few conservative talkers going along with this hypothetical memorandum, but Rush? Laura Ingraham? Never.
Post the memo.
Believe me, if the FCC put out a memo not to mention this story on the air, THAT story would be all over Washington, DC.
That would be a secret that couldn’t be kept.
Must be a close call between Heavy Strength and Super Strength.
OK. This issue has reached the NUTs level. Obama hasnt even taken office and the talk radio show hosts who hate HIM are taking orders from him?
This is the craziest post I have seen in a while. Pretty soon we will be marched into the corn fields to grow renewable fuels (rice paddies Cambodia 1978) Lets just take up arms now (my sarcasm).
Why or why do people post this nonsense?
Baloney
This story has got to be a plant to undermine the credibility of those who are seeking the truth about his natural born citizenship.
Goebbels, of course, was right. In our case, though, the fascists only have half of the equation under their thumb: The media. The fascists do not have, and likely will not have in the future, the U.S. military. What they COULD have, though — and the article alluded to this — is a domestic military force of stormtroopers that will be created under The Obamunist’s reign (remember, the Democrats have said The Obamunist will RULE: They did not say he will GOVERN).
My prediction is that there will be a showdown between the U.S. military and The Obamunist’s SS (if he’s foolish enough to create one) that will solve the problem of the stormtroopers forever.
I find that multiple layers of the thin stuff works best.
“This story has got to be a plant to undermine the credibility of those who are seeking the truth about his natural born citizenship.”
Totally agree!
HEY!
This is an excerpt out of the right side news link...I am not advocating or not—but this woman’s note from CA shows the mental thrashing going on out there about the media blackout on the BC.
cute insult—but do not shoot the messenger—this is color commentary from the masses pal.
That’s a little on the tin-foil side of things. But, I too have a hard time understanding why press coverage has been so ... absent. Denofrio’s case is scheduled for internal discussion tomorrow at the Supreme Court! You’d think that would appear in a headline or two. Right, wrong, or indifferent ... IT *IS* THE NEWS. Last I heard, the “reporters” were supposed to “report” it.
What’s with the keywords??
I agree with others that the article here seems rather outlandish but on the other hand I find it strange that this story has been all over the internet and NOT ONE major media outlet has touched it.
While I doubt there was a memo I do believe there is a tactic agreement to suppress this story.
And Fox, Laura and Rush for some reason are a part of that agreement.
I’ve stopped watching Faux and no longer listen to Rush or other conservative radio shows.
None address the stolen election in terms of campaign funding, ACORN, CRA not being repealed, ACORN getting 4.5 Percent of Fannie & freddie loans, ACORN receiving $100 million in the last bailout bill, the nationalization of private companies.
Rush is generally absent in addressing his good friend GWB’ s socialist behaviour.....
Rush’s good friend George Bush is a socialist. Rush has become an inside the beltway republican, by not hammering ALL republican socialists.
A friend went so far as to suggest Rush has taken off these last three days because he doesn’t want to field calls about the COLD issue before the USSC.
For some reason ALL conservative talk shows are absent on this issue. And I find that MORE than a little strange.
Unless they address this issue before Friday I will never listen to any of these shows again, ever.
By not reporting on the Obama natural born citizenship the media is saying "it is for the common good". (/s)

I am one of those that is maintaining an open mind that P.E. Obama may not be constitutionally qualified, and I want the evidence to be examined by the SCOTUS. However, the rantings of this article (as quoted above) are just plain over the top nuts.
