WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama says he believes the Tea Party is built around a "core group" of people who question whether he is a U.S. citizen and believe he is a socialist.

Where can I get my “core group” ID card, patch, and stickers?

It’s coming, this weekend’s raids look to be the start of the fun time.

I think most people of our mindset view the arrest, the press release (”Christian militia”), and the timing with the same suspicion - “it’s starting”.

If one reported asked him point blank are you a NATURAL born citizen? He’d crap his pants. He’d start hemming an hawing saying he’s native born and change the subject. Get him on the record. Ask him you cowards in the press.

Maybe he could claim his mom used the Lamaze Method so of course he's natural born!

Core Group member here!

That is inspiring. I went on a rant last week explaining the health care bill to my son (almost 16) and burst in to tears I was so frustrated, thinking about what he and his children might lose if the dems keep getting their way.

These guys really learned from the Nazis, didn’t they? Demonize the opposition. Make them sub-human.

[eclecticEel]

He’s still trying to deny that he’s a socialist? Really? After the 21st it seems a large number of socialists have thrown off the facade and just started being honest about who they are and what they want - I guess Zero doesn’t think it’s yet time to join them.

“53% disapproval in job performance is a Core Group?...... sounds like coded language of some sort.”

Looks like the fact that the “core group” has grown to millions is getting him nervous! But then, he could let the truth set him free by telling us again that he was a British subject at birth and how he was known for many years as Barry Sortoro from Indonesia.

Freeper ExTexasRedhead made my day yesterday when she sent me this. Just passing it on for your enjoyment. Easy to sing along!

First of all, Obama was and still is a Socialist. If he wishes to use the term "Progressive," it means the same damn thing!

The New Party was a radical left organization, established in 1992, to amalgamate far left groups and push the United States into socialism by forcing the Democratic Party to the left. It was an attempt to regroup the forces on the left in a new strategy to take power, burrowing from within. The party only lasted until 1998, when its strategy of “fusion” failed to withstand a Supreme Court ruling. But dissolving the party didn’t stop the membership, including Barack Obama, from continuing to move the Democrats leftward with spectacular success. (American Thinker, October 08, 2008).

Second of all, likely a majority of Tea Party Conservatives do NOT doubt Obama’s status as a US Citizen via his mother (some argue that point as well).

It’s his status as a NATURAL BORN Citizen that’s in question, as required per Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of the US Constitution. The office of POTUS is the ONLY office that has such a requirement, because there are NO Internal "Checks and Balances" in the Executive Branch.

And the most notable thing about this interview is that Obama himself continues to hinge the argument on him being a CITIZEN versus a NATURAL BORN Citizen.

More and more it’s obvious that seemingly accidental gaffs from the Constitutional Law Professor are actually Alinsky-type purposeful misdirection from what could truly bring his presidency down.

“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.

Even after Sharpton’s declaration that America voted for socialism when they elected 0bama.

[Woebama]

Heh. The silent majority isn’t silent anymore (not by a long shot). So now they call us names and pretend like we are the fringe.

[Smokeyblue]

Bears repeating over and over again.

“And the most notable thing about this interview is that Obama himself continues to hinge the argument on him being a CITIZEN versus a NATURAL BORN Citizen.”

[MindBender26]

Yes, and I’m one of that 15,000,000 “core.”

[MCOAvalanche]

...core group...

Duh ... most thinking Americans.

Seriously though, what a subtle yet damning remark from the O-hole.

He dismisses the Tea Partiers in two words as mindless drones following a ‘core group’. Implying that the ‘core’ is a bunch of anti-Obama fanatics, not rational and having nothing to do with having a legitimate opposition point of view. This group is being followed by a bunch of rhetoric drinking, reactionaries similar in scope to the torch bearers following the pitch fork wielding townsfolk in a Frankenstein movie.

Following that theme, methinks O-hole is whistling past the graveyard and does in fat realize the danger to him and his ilk that the Tea Party movement represents come election day. My own personal fear is that election day is still 7 months away and the average voter has a short memory.

Lemme guess, his eyes glazed over as they fixed on some point past your left ear and he emitted a long drawn out sigh as his mind tried to shut out his parent unit. Mine do the same. I’ve come to realize (knock on wood) that while they make it seem they don’t listen to us, they really do and it comes out away from home.

Prove me wrong, jackoff.

0bama is on TV again. This time he's proudly proclaiming nationalization of the student loan program.

[orinoco]

Obama is a socialist for sure!
