I don't know about the rest of you, but I, for one, am eminently thankful for all of the negative press coverage on the "Certifigate" / "Birther" issue.
Here's why: they are doing our jobs for us.
People don't trust the MSM. Even one of their own, Pew, shows that the public do not trust the media.
If you take a look at this 2004 report, you find that the vast majority of people don't believe what they hear, while this 2008 report shows that most people believed that the press was in the bag for Obama.
Do any of you think that a poll taken in mid-2009 would show any improvement in the people's opinion of the MSM?
The point is that the more the MSM and the Dhims in charge laugh, the more they vilify, the more they demonize, the more people will start asking the important questions and will doubt Bam-Bam's qualifications to be there. Why? Because most of the people know that they've been scammed. Only six months into the Obama reign, only 48% of the people (according to Rasmussen) believe that Obama is doing even a slightly good job. That's a worse track record than even Carter!
Think about it: only 77% of Americans think that Bam-Bam is an natural-born American citizen. Which President would have any less than 99.5% believing he was a natural-born citizen?
So keep spewing your filth, media. Keep talking. You're doing our jobs for us.
Even us crazy birthers want the transparency Obama promised us. Why don’t his supporters?
The thing we need to keep stressing is “Why is Obama hiding his information, if he is truly ‘transparent’?”
They called Wesley and his band terrible names like “methodists” and “arminians.” He dealt with it by embracing the names.
It is obvious that the growing birther movement is having
an impact, otherwise, the MSM would keep its mouth shut
with hope it would all just blow away.
They are doing a great job in moving it along to the public.
I think it’s a big mistake for the Obamamedia too. As the economy worsens and people sour on their man, the public becomes more hostile to whatever spin RAT media whores are pushing on it.
No facts are presented to disprove it. They either shun it or start name calling. The issue is much bigger than just this one hidden document though. He’s got a book full of hidden records.
First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, and then you win.”

” because it is not unreasonable to want to see Obama’s long form birth certificate “
That’s one cool thing about this issue. Among all the ridiculous sides libtards have taken... killing babies, higher tax cure-alls, enabling minorities who can’t get off welfare.., taking our guns to help with our crime-rate..
This is one asinine position. Not checking the President’s credentials because it’s too much trouble.
The regular man-on-the-street see’s this and thinks ‘why doesn’t he just make it public?’ Bam. A Birther is born.

Birth Certificate Birther Bashing in full force. We need to flood the comments with the truth. The MSM sees nothing but race and color, and they fail to see logic and the Constitution.
Could it be that the two other branches of government are black mailed (Congress a house of cards will crash down?). Something does not make sense???
Because they don't want to be tarred...in the event that he pulls out the original BC.
And that's OK, as far as I'm concerned. Let this one come from the grass roots.
