Who are the real conspiracy theorists?

WND ^ | 3/1/2010 | Joseph Farrah

[patlin]

There are many in the press today caricaturing me as a "conspiracy theorist" simply because I, like millions of other Americans, insist on actually seeing proof of Barack Obama's constitutional eligibility.

I've never alleged a conspiracy. Obama was given a free pass by an opponent who had his own eligibility issues. Not much of a conspiracy necessary – especially with Obama accountable only to a fawning press and scared-of-their-shadows Republicans.

But "conspiracy theorist" is an easy epithet to hurl.

One good question to ask, the next time you hear someone call me that name, is this: "Who is Joseph Farah conspiring with?"

[Uncle Chip]

Obama’s mother was American so that also makes him a natural born American.

According to whose definition??? National Lampoon's???

No, it doesn’t.

The funny thing about the so-called "birther" issue is that a large number of people who claim to be conservatives are willing to take 0bamao and his regime at his word that he qualifies as natural born under The Constittuion. They also seem to imply that requesting proof somehow brings ridicule (see Alinsky's rules) on Conservative issues and should we should take Hussein's word for it. I'm not from Missouri, but "show me"! That's all I ask. This should have been a requirement made by each and every state election official before his name was ever placed on the ballot.

Based on 0bamao's history, why would anyone believe anything he says?

Joseph Farah and World Net Daily are so wrong, so often, that I think he is a leftist plant. His only purpose is to make Conservatives look ridiculous.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Who’s the conspiracy nut here? You or Farah?

Farah is a leftist plant? Really? Who planted him? The captain of the mother ship?

Obama’s mother was American so that also makes him a natural born American.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I bet there are a fair number of Vietnamese citizens with American soldier sperm donor fathers living today in Vietnam.

So...If they move here, live here for 14 years, get naturalized, they should be eligible for president? Really?

The following shall be nationals and citizens of the United States at birth:

(e) a person born in an outlying possession of the United States of parents one of whom is a citizen of the United States who has been physically present in the United States or one of its outlying possessions for a continuous period of one year at any time prior to the birth of such person;

Were they born in the USA? No. Obama was born in Hawaii.

[DJ MacWoW]

Where does that say anything about Natural born citizen?

Bam has admitted to having dual citizenship. That disqualifies him.

[stephenjohnbanker]

“Farah is a leftist plant? Really? Who planted him? The captain of the mother ship?”

LOL.

Farah is asking the right questions at the right time for the right reasons.

[wintertime]

Obama was born in Hawaii.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Did the captain of the mother ship show you his long form birth certificate? Really?

Cue: “The Believers” by the Monkees

[ari-freedom]

“Bam has admitted to having dual citizenship. That disqualifies him.”

No, it doesn’t. Other presidents had British fathers and were dual citizens at birth.

[DJ MacWoW]

Other presidents had British fathers and were dual citizens at birth.

Only the Founders. Read it.

No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the United States.

[ari-freedom]

it was verified by the Hawaiian health director.

[DJ MacWoW]

Okubo's a Constitutional scholar and judge?

wintertime one has to wonder why these people argue to verify Bams legitimacy!

[wintertime]

. Obama was born in Hawaii.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Oh, another “Believer”!

Calling Al Shanklin! Calling Al Shanklin! You are needed on the Free Republic Red Phone!!!

See below from “The Believer” by the Monkees:

I thought love was
Only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else
But not for me
Love was out to get to me
That's the way it seems
Disappointment haunted
All my dreams

And then I saw Obama’s face
Now I'm a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
I'm a believer
I couldn't leave Obama
If I tried

I thought love was
More or less a given thing
The more I gave the less
I got, oh yeah
What's the use in trying
All you get is pain
When I wanted sunshine
I got rain

And then I saw Obama’s face
Now I'm a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
I'm a believer
I couldn't leave Obama
If I tried

What's the use in trying
All you get is pain
When I wanted sunshine
I got rain

And then I saw Obama’s face
Now I'm a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
I'm a believer
I couldn't leave Obama
If I tried

Then I saw Obama face
Now I'm a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
Now I'm a believer
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm a believer
Then I saw Obama’s face
I'm a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
I'm a believer

[Rational Thought]

You're so right! There is no reason to question Obama’s lack of documentation. We should just trust him on this and also trust him (and stop opposing him) on his statements that his agenda will be good for America. Like the “birthers”, to question him on anything makes us look like idiots.

Obama doesn't love this issue and doesn't love those who are continuing to drive this issue home. The more this issue is exposed, the more questions there are. Yet, you make a statement that we should give Obama a pass on this. What you are then doing is allowing the Left to define the argument, much like “global warming” is settled science.

There's always room in our form of Government for questioning those in office.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Farah gets his facts wrong by the third sentence. John McCain had no eligibility issues.

Yes he did, so much so that Senate Resolution 511 was passed....and signed by none other that bammie him self.

[Uncle Chip]

"The Constitution does not, in words, say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common-law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners. Some authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their parents. As to this class there have been doubts, but never as to the first. For the purposes of this case it is not necessary to solve these doubts. It is sufficient for everything we have now to consider that all children born of citizen parents within the jurisdiction are themselves citizens." [Minor versus Happersett]
