The "honor" of 4 incontinent counties, apparently.

The birther bill is probably dead for 2011.
Sen. Mark Christensen of Imperial presented his version Thursday of a bill that would require a presidential candidate to prove he or she is “a natural born citizen” of the United States.
The Government, Military and Veterans Affairs Committee is unlikely to advance the proposal (LB654) which goes even further than those introduced in 11 other states this year.

If they kill it then it is totally disgusting. Can’t at least one of the 57 states pass one of these bills? Sick. Polie state and slimy country.
Little Jameeeeseeee7777, they guy who posted this thread, would vote against presidential eligibility laws with glee.
What in hell are they afraid of?
I’ve e-mailed the committee members thanking them for the chance to testify at the hearing and asking whether the vote has been taken yet. I asked them to let me know how they voted and why. Should be interesting to see what they have to say.
My description of the hearing is at http://butterdezillion.wordpress.com/2011/03/11/committee-hearing-for-nebraska-lb-654/
The next step in this process is to network to find people who would be willing to collect signatures all over the state for a ballot initiative something like this:
“Any registered Nebraska voter shall have legal standing to challenge in expedited state court proceedings the legal eligibility of any candidate on the Nebraska ballot, provided that the legal challenge is filed before the beginning of the term of office the candidate is seeking through placement on that ballot.”
What the courts and now the legislature are saying is that it is none of our business whether the Constitution and laws are followed. If it’s not our business then why do we even vote? That whole idea that we should give the government our money and then go away, shut up, and let them do whatever they darn well please is against everything this country and this form of government are all about.
This rag has has nothing going for it except Sam McKewon, a sports writer & since it’s distributed on the University these replies in this rag are from little sniveling students who think Big Ears is the greatest they are tearing this guy apart. IMO this was a state that should require the long form. This anti-American Muslim can’t produce. End of story.
Ah, that might explain why my comment there hasn’t been approved yet. Simply said:

I suppose that will be too offensive for them to print. lol.
The Daily Nebraskan wouldn’t print a concise, factual summary when they had an inaccurate article about this issue.
And the Lincoln Journal Star said they sent me a registration confirmation e-mail so I could post and it didn’t arrive in my inbox until about 8 hours later. Of course, that could be because my e-mails are being sorted through and some of them snatched away before my very eyes...
Got an e-mail saying it was approved but it’s not on that page when I refresh it. I guess we’ll see.

I thought for sure that Arizona would pass it, but from what I saw last week it is dead there too. 0bamao is pulling out all the stops -
Good news for once. Lets hope it's true, and that it backfires on the little OBot thread poster who celebrated with glee after reading the article's headline.
I THOUGHT I recognized the troll!
Thanks, Red Steel!
butterdezillion, I don’t know how you keep your sanity.
I appreciate all the research you have done.
The time has PASSED to abide by the law...our GOVERNMENT doesn’t even do it.
I suggest removing the tax payer funded “entitlement” to Viagra for WELFARE recipients in New York, and giving it to our congresscritters...........
THEY NEED IT. (EXCEPT Michelle Bachmann.)
Good news for once. Lets hope it’s true, and that it backfires on the little OBot thread poster who celebrated with glee after reading the article’s headline.

I just read your blog and you gave excellent testimony Butter. Well measured and the right tone. :-)
A statewide petition would be a good idea. In Colorado, for a statutory initiative, “the number of valid signatures required for a successful petition effort is equal to 5% of the total number of votes cast for the office of Secretary of State in the preceding general election. The number of signatures required is the same for constitutional amendments, statutes, and referenda. “
I see that the total votes casted was 317,083 in 2010 for the office of Secretary of State. So 5% of 317,083 of the votes casted is a little over 15,000 signatures needed.

Lets see what’s required for Kansas...
