Maddow Challenges Romney’s Use Of Trump While He Insists Obama Is A ‘Kenyan Usurper’
Mediaite.com ^ | May 26, 2012 | Frances Martel/Rachel Maddow

Posted on 05/27/2012 7:48:01 AM PDT by Seizethecarp

Donald Trump is many things, but in the political world, he has made his recent name on being a birther. This argued Rachel Maddow last night, giving him credit for being a great asset to Mitt Romney’s campaign but questioning the morality of having a birther be a great asset to one’s campaign. What to do, Maddow asked, when “the single best known household name to speak up” for you also thinks the President is a “Kenyan Usurper”?

“Nobody can be responsible for the views of all their supporters,” Maddow noted, arguing that if you, the viewer, had wacky beliefs and also liked Romney, that wasn’t really his problem. “But Donald Trump is not you– he is a prominent part of the Romney campaign.” Romney, she concluded, was “raising money off of Donald Trump… while Donald Trump is simultaneously preaching that President Obama is secretly not really the President,” and those two facts are not severable.

I’ll put Donald Trump’s comments up against Jeremiah Wright’s anytime. All Romney has to do is say that and the libs will shut up about it. Of course, Romney already says Wright is off-limits.

This guilt by association ploy is brought to you by the same people who claim that it is wrong to bring up Obama's long-time association with Wright, Ayers, Rezko, and various and sundry other America haters, low-lifes, drug dealers, Islamist radicals, Commies and crooks...

THE QUESTION NO LIBERAL WILL DARE TO ANSWER:

Was Obama lying about being born in Kenya from 1991-2007?

Or is he lying NOW?

They will call you every name in the book, but they won’t answer this question. Try it for yourself and see.

Undoubtedly Obama's records will be sealed for fifty years when he leaves the presidency.
That which is sealed can be unsealed. But I think the Ruskies, Chicoms and others know the whole story of Barry. Just waiting to use it at the right time.

But the real shame will be on the failed journalists of the media when the truth eventually comes out.
This truly astounds me. The story of how Obozo manufactured his past, only to become President, and the "Natural Born Citizen" requirements, are the story of a lifetime. I can't believe any real journalist wouldn't persue it.

Trump also has said Obama would go to war with Iran in order to get reelected.

Maybe she should comment on Timothy Adams Master Theses.

Timothy Adams was the Chief Elections Clerk for the City and County of Honolulu, 2008.

Not well written for a Master Theses, but that does not make the facts any less!

Those on the left, especially the feminist hard core left, think she is absolutely brilliant, those on the right with an R next to their name are AFRAID to come on her show, and she is so smart as a Rhoades scholar . . . it is sickening to hear them blather on about her/him. It really angers them to call her Rachel Madcow. LOL

“This truly astounds me. The story of how Obozo manufactured his past, only to become President, and the “Natural Born Citizen” requirements, are the story of a lifetime. I can’t believe any real journalist wouldn’t persue it.”

Obama history, whether he was US born, or not, is that he will lie to anyone, at any time, about anything, if it advances whatever his agenda is AT THAT MOMENT IN TIME.

No Non-Fox Mainstream journalist in today’s Radical gay-Run Media DARES to cover this Orwellian Prez, lest they be black-listed, branded a RACIST, fired, their family threatened with violence, and they become unemployed, looking for a new media job in the Obama Economy.

There are enough examples of people this has happened to to send the message out, LOUD AND CLEAR.

But the lefties can bring up a hazing mittens committed back in high school?

I am a birther, but what is more important to me is what is in Zero's college admittance and scholastic records - did he get admitted as a "Foreign Student".

Although I am a birther and believe both parents have to be US citizens, we are never ever going to win this argument since HI will not cooperate. The college records should be the main attraction - when Americans see what I think is in there THEY WILL NOT REELECT THIS CLOWNISH BUFFOON, this Dear Reader, this Liar-In-Chief.

I'd like to see Mitt stay away from the issue of the BC during the campaign.

Just stick with the economy. That and all the spending O is doing and what that means to the country in the long run.

Then after Mitt gets elected, I want to see a vigorous investigation by the AG. And if they can prove with out a doubt, to a courts standard of evidence, that he was not eligible to be President... O and everyone that helped him defraud this country, goes to jail for treason.

I absolutely mean it.

The founding fathers designed the constitution so that whom ever is President doesn't have split loyalties. Some tie to a foreign country that would cause the President to not always act in the best interest on the United States. Period.

This kind of ties in with another subject; requiring ID cards to vote! Illegals should never be allowed to vote. Ever. For one they are compromised by their illegal status. They can be easily blackmailed and manipulated. Second, they are foreign nationals. Which means their true loyalty lies with their home country and they will vote in the best interest of that country and not the US.

Trump can solve this problem easily enough.

He says that he has no affiliation with the Romney campaign, that he’s just a patriotic American determined to do all he can to prevent the Kenyan Usurper from winning another term.

If that happens to benefit Milquetoast Mitt, that’s just the way the cookie crumbles.

It makes me feel good to hear/see that the many dots I have seen/recorded as to Obama’s history are also dots being connected by other people.
