"It's dead, Jim."
Posted on 05/16/2011 12:03:34 PM PDT by Why So Serious
I am somewhat of a CT. I think that everybody has motive for everything they do. Trump is no different. Did the The Donald do this whole thing to MAKE Obama produce a BC? Or did he do it to HELP Obama produce a BC. If Trump did not do this now, someone would have done it during the Presidential campaign. So by Trump making a big deal about the BC now it allowed Obama to dump the BC to take that away from anyone in 2012.
The whole BC thing isn’t over with.......yet.
You make it sound as if the birth certificate issue has died. It hasn’t.
A digital image of unknown provenance is not a birth certificate.
A birth certificate is an official document issued by the state embossed with the state seal.
But now, thanks to The Donald, many people believe the issue has been settled.
Who never conceded that this Birth Cert is kosher??
Last I saw, there are the unexplained 9 levels of photoshopping that reconstructs the manufacture of this document - levels which cannot be replicated on a photocopier.
Where are these document experts hiding??
Did someone debunk their revelations??? - or was the world waiting for Trump to pounce, and give him the credit??
Time will tell.
"It's dead, Jim."
That’s my theory, although I’m still waiting to see how this works out. Here’s a slightly edited account of what I wrote on the thread about Trump’s withdrawal announcement:
Trump is not a conservative. He recently said that he was a Christian, and he said that he was pro-life, and he said that he was a Republican, but from his past record, it’s extremely doubtful if any of that was true.
And all of his political donations were either to Democrats or RINOs.
He did a great job bringing the birth issue to the fore. At first I thought he might be doing it for hillary, and I was all in favor of what he was doing, although I didn’t support him for POTUS.
But then we had Obie’s charade about a new COLB from Hawaii, and then we had the bin Ladin affair conveniently take the birth issue right back off the news.
So, there’s at least some possibility that Trump was working for Obama the whole time. By raising the BC issue, he made it possible for Obie to produce his new COLB after refusing to do so for about three years. It gave Obie a convenient excuse for finally producing it, without people asking the puzzling question, Why now?
Then, blam, bin Ladin hits the news. What a coincidence! Could it be that the two things were orchestrated to happen at the same time? They’ve known where bin Ladin was for months, but they decided to do it in conjunction with the birth certificate. Maybe they told Trump when it was time to start his act, and promised him some kind of reward.
It was noticeable that Trump got a lot of exposures on liberal programs, and even the NY Times gave him their OpEd page. Did someone maybe suggest to them that it might be a good idea to do that?
The new on-line COLB is an obvious forgery. Numerous critics and experts have demonstrated that. Will Trump say anything about these very serious problems? I doubt it. Not if he was working for Obama all along.
Job done. Back to business.
All this is speculative, of course. But let’s see if Trump has anything more to say about the birth certificate, in particular about the blatant fact that the new COLB is a poorly made forgery. I’m not holding my breath.
nope..Trump put the issue front and center and Corsi
is about to knock a grand slam..........it will hurt the drive by media the most
According to other posters here, it’s not so much a BC issue (although a forged BC is an issue); as an issue about whether BHO is a natural born citizen, regardless of where he was born (foreign father, as far as we know).
Either way, the issue is irrelevant. Most Americans aren’t interested. Zero GOP figures are interested. Obama could be the love child of Bernadine Dorhn and Robert Mugabe, born in the People’s Nursery at the Kremlin itself. The courts won’t nullify his presidency, and the people will reelect him in 2012 unless presented with a better candidate.
And that’s that.
He did it to help Obama.
And he did too. Now less people believe Obama was born elsewhere...
I do wonder why his Kenyan grandmother said she saw him born in Kenya?
UPDATE: Trump Won’t Run; Decision Follows NBC’s Contingency Plan To Recast Donald On ‘Apprentice’
UPDATE MONDAY AM: NBC made a big headline at its upfront presentation today regarding Donald Trump who took the stage to deliver the news: “After getting so many calls from NBC executives, I’ve decided that I will continue onward with The Apprentice. I will not be running for president, as much as I wanted to,” he said. “This will be our 12th season. I love Celebrity Apprentice.” Just yesterday, NBC entertainment chairman Bob Greenblatt said on a conference call that NBC was working on plans to replace Trump on The Apprentice should he decide to run. After Trump’s statement, which drew big applause from the audience of ad buyers, Greenblatt quipped, “Every network wants to make news at its upfront. Try topping that!” Over the past few months, Trump had been publicly flirting with the idea of running for President. At some point, he mulled announcing his final decision on the season finale of Celebrity Apprentice but then scrapped that idea.
When Obama showed us his ‘birth certificate’ there was only one question that an honest journalist would have asked.-
“So Mr President, which line on this form is the one that you spent a million dollars to hide? Which line caused you to allow a soldier to be imprisoned for his asking to see it? Nothing looks out of the ordinary. It cost you ten dollars and ten minutes to have Hawaii release this. Why did you spend hundreds of thousands of dollars, thousands of attorney hours, years of our nation’s time, and drag us through this constitutional crisis rather than spend the ten dollars and ten minutes right from the start?”
Well, I think the timing was chosen in part because of the date Corsi’s book was to come out.
That could go either way. Maybe, as you suggest, Trump was working with Corsi. He certainly pretended to do so. But maybe he was playing with Corsi.
Corsi has to deal with the fact that Obama publicly stated that he had now released the official, long-form birth certificate, flown to the White House from Hawaii. But his book has already been printed, so he can’t address it.
Will they stick a brochure dealing with it into each copy of the book? It does certainly raise problems. Because every reviewer in the MSM will loudly shout that Corsi’s book is OUTDATED! Because it deals with issues that are now settled by the release of the birth certificate Corsi demands he should produce.
That’s bogus, of course. But when did a few lies bother the MSM?
except that Corsi expected this and why even Barry will learn things new to him
nope, the book will lead the news cycle
hide and watch
lolol
Obama’s team presented a phoney BC once before, and the issue did not die.
NOW the Obama team has issued another fake BC, and the issue is dead!? I think NOT.
The media is trying to kill the issue for Obama by trying to make it appear that the release of the new phoney BC killed the POTUS aspirations of Trump’s, but it’s all BS.
It was a setup to pull the wool over the eyes of the public once again I believe. Put nothing beyond the Left. They believe they are the most clever of all.
When Obama showed us his ‘birth certificate’ there was only one question that an honest journalist would have asked.-
Honest journalism is all but dead.
Most of the bastards need to be shot for what they’ve done to this country.
