'Birthers' must be stopped

latimes ^ | July 31, 2009 | Bill Maher

[JoeProBono]

No matter how dumb, the people who are questioning whether Obama was born in the U.S. could eventually cause real problems.

[SolidWood]

Bill Maher? The guy who spread the lie that Trig Palin is Bristols son?

Bill is a “Birther”.

[rahbert]

Bill Maher is one of the few people I seriously believe
we’d be better off without.

[avacado]

"And there's nothing anyone can do to convince these folks..."

Bone up on the subject jackass!

LONG FORM BIRTH CERTIFICATE!

That should do it pea brain!

[Soothesayer9]

Bill was right about one thing..a lot of stupid americans in this country alright..look who is in the white house.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

We are breathing down your neck, Bill, better run faster!

[Jim from C-Town]

I am quite certain that Ms. Palin could and would produce her High School Diploma in a matter of minutes. I just turned around opened a drawer and found my Diploma, My College degree, a notarized copy of my Birth Certificate (Original), Baptismal Record(ROMAN CATHOLIC), and original copy of my S.S. card. If I had a passport, I could produce that one as well.

Why can't, or won't Obama?

[DieHard the Hunter]

(grin!) my three passports (Canada, UK, NZ), long-form Birth Certificate, hi school diploma, college diploma, hi school & college transcripts, marriage certificate, certificate of citizenship (NZ), social insurance card (Canada), IRD card (NZ), firearms acquisition certificate (Canada, expired), Master Mason’s certificate and last will & testament are all in the fireproof safe beside me.

If it would help me to become the President of the United States, I could produce all of these forms in seconds.

(And in the absence of proof to the contrary I could just possibly be just as qualified as BHO to hold that office — that is to say, not at all: I am neither a naturally-born American nor indeed an American Citizen nor indeed elected in a fair and honest election)

So why doesn’t he put the speculation to bed and produce his documents? This situation defies all logic.

[Jim from C-Town]

“So why doesn’t he put the speculation to bed and produce his documents? This situation defies all logic.”

It only defies logic, if he is not trying to hide something.

This controversy doesn't hurt Conservatives at all. It simply makes Obama look shifty and sleazy, like he is trying to hide something.

[tallyhoe]

If he was born here like everybody who claims to be sane says, then there should be no problem from us insane people questioning his birth certificate! Right?

[presently no screen name]

IMO, we’d be insane if we DIDN’T question his legitimacy. His actions so far show no allegiance to the USA.

[gov_bean_ counter]

So, how about we bitch about something that matters - cap & trade, health care “reform”, spending billions on worthless cars?

We do. Freepers are excellent multi-taskers, unlike the TOTUS who had to take valuable time away from the health care crisis to fix race relations.

[Dallas59]

Which raises the question: Why, in this country, is it always the religious right that won't take anything on faith?
You mean like the 0buma Health Care bill?

[Eye of Unk]

Birthers must be stopped, interesting, but how to implement stopping a loose collection of conservatives all across the country?

Lets just call this a fad, like beany babies, its popular for a short time and then everyone loses interest, or a fashion trend, it loses appeal when everyone is wearing the same style, or buying something solid state thats good until something better comes out like 8 track-cassette-cd and so forth.

The other side can effectively stop the birthers....in time.

Because we could lose interest.

If the subject wanes attention then we ignore it and build up more resources and hit them again! Given an effective cycle of exposure we can inundate all of America from mass e-mailings to billboards, it will be water cooler gossip and internet blogging, it will be in print around the earth and quoted on TV.

We have the facts, the truth and we WILL NOT QUIT.

TAKE

BACK

AMERICA!

BIRTHERS ARE INSANE!!!

Hmmm, I smell a TROLL!

[Smokin' Joe]

Well, Bill, if all the nonsense was removed from the media your sorry butt would have been out on the bricks looking for a real job at McDonald's or someplace a long time ago.

We would not be reading this drivel, that's for certain.

But I'll see the "birther" bit, and raise you one.

I want to see his draft card, too.

I still have mine, even though I'm an old fart. I'm sure he has his, right?

[politicalmerc]

I totally agree they need to be stopped. The absolute means of doing so is to release a valid BIRTH CERTIFICATE and it will either put an end to their conspiracies or put an end to Obama.

EXACTLY~~~~~

[shibumi]

Hey Guys! (You too, Bill.) I got the real Long Form Birth Certificate right here!

[dalereed]

Not until obama is arrested and deported as an illegal alien!
