Obama Releases Birth Certificate: Does It Help or Hurt Trump?
Elephant Watcher ^ | April 27, 2011

Posted on 04/27/2011 4:05:02 PM PDT by DeskCaptain

"Trump first gained significant media attention for his (potential) presidential run by pursuing the "birther" issue. Trump questioned why Obama would not release the birth certificate, and also questioned Obama's refusal to release other records (e.g. college transcripts). Trump's attacks resonated with Republican voters. They also stirred up enough doubt among the general public that Obama felt he needed to release his birth certificate, after more than two years of stonewalling...."

Looks like both sides may be claiming victory on this one. Except that Obama didn't really want to release it, or he would have done it earlier.

Your kidding? It’s out? He released it? Freaking Axelrod, you magnificent bastard. Now he’s absolutely untouchable, politically. Until, that is, people start coming forward with evidence of his real crimes and indiscretions.

We’re playing chesspoker here. Obama made a bold move today. Why? because the king was finally threatened. he’s not a Naturally Born Citizen. that’s the real threat that he tried to counter today. To be a natural born citizen, your mother or father can not have allegiance to any other sovereignty. Barack Obama Sr. was a citizen of Kenya. Barack Hussein Obama is not a natural born citizen. He is, therefore, not constitutionally eligible to be POTUS.

MuBarak is an idiot to have released this “Copy of Date Points” on a Wednesday!

What moron doesn’t know that if you want a story to die you release it over the weekend or on a holiday?

Further, it may have been enough to convince Lieutenant Lakin to continue following orders of deployment as he had done so many times, honorably, as a decorated veteran would do and does.

But no... He let an honorable man hang in the wind, under a cloud of doubt and ruin his career and life. For What?

This settles nothing and I want to see the one he found among his mother’s belongings when she passed in 1995, as well the one that is sealed in his admissions for kindergarten and preschool.

Barak, if this settles it for you then you screwed a fine man and you should be ashamed!

You have no honor.
