He looks bad no matter what. If he pulls out either a bogus explanation or a long-form birth certificate NOW, how can he possibly gain “credibility” after sending Lt. Col. Lakin to prison when all he had to do was show the birth certificate in private to the judge way back in December? Or show it in private to Lt. Col. Lakin when he first asked the question and before he “disobeyed orders?”
Obama looks bad no matter what happens now. He has no credibility.
If he has a birth certificate that proves his eligibility and proves that his life story according to himself is true, then there’s no logical explanation for why he didn’t present it before the election, when the issue first came up.
It certainly doesn’t add to his prestige if, as some of his supporters say, he’s merely playing with “birthers”, or it’s fun for him, or it’s a convenient distraction, or whatever are the current obot talking points. It makes him look small, juvenile, immature. Actually, now that I think about it, it makes him look exactly as he is.
Only a sadist would “string it along”. Why?
Answer:
1) LTC Lakin sits in prison and Major Cook lost his security clearance and his job.
2) Obama sent **tax paid** government attorneys around the country to prevent the release of **common** documents and wasted the **tax paid** resources of the Department of Justice to prevent the release of common documents American serfs provide routinely for many reasons. He distracted these highly trained individuals at a time when plots were being laid to blow up Times Square and a Pittsburgh marathon, explode a plane out of the sky over Detroit, and KILL our soldiers on their bases and recruitment centers.
A person who would use this issue to tease his political opponents likely pulls the wings off flies just to see them squirm!
