Poll to FReep: Do you think there is any merit to the controversy surrounding Barack Obama's citizenship?
Yes
No
Unsure
(Excerpt) Read more at news.aol.com ...
He is not a natural born citizen, where he was born is not the big issue. The fact is his father was a british subject, therefore, so is he.
Just saw this:
I’m told by a Supreme Court watcher that the lack of an announcement doesn’t mean the court definitely won’t hear Donofrio although he thinks it’s safe to say its unlikely the court won’t hear the case. The full orders aren’t due until Monday

Would someone help me through the negatives? What’s he saying?
It's 50% yes now. Wonder where the 5% unsure are from.
Yes, Yes and Hell no 5/4
USSC Justices and federal judges.
What do you base that on?
I base that on the fact that he is hiding something...
50y/44n/6u after my vote

If it's unlikely they won't, then it's likely they will. Double negative = positive. I'm not so sure this is the meaning that the author of the blog intended, though.
The only opinion I have on it is some confusion over why he won’t produce an official copy of it. MY children are required to present an official copy just to enter kindergarten in the public school system. What gives, BO?
I agree; I think he meant “it is likely the Court won’t hear the case.
The sentence above that one also had a double negative.
It is so refreshing to know that our media experts have such a wonderful command of our language.
“No. Anyone who thinks there is needs to put on a tinfoil hat.”
Why do you say that?
Very interesting, looking at all the states.
I hope the justices don’t base any of their decisions on polls of any kind, much less on polls like this one. I did vote in the poll and think the results are interesting.
Because there ample evidence that Obama is a natural born citizen.
The people challanging this are a bunch of conspiracy kooks.
DONE!!!~~~50%(Y)~44%(N)~6%(?)~~~
