My President, the CAR??? (or Show Me the BIRTHFAX!!!)

Way back in the olden days there was a TV show called “My Mother the Car.” Wiki says, “My Mother the Car is an American fantasy sitcom which aired for a single season on NBC between September 14, 1965 and September 6, 1966. A total of thirty episodes were produced by United Artists Television.

Critics and adult viewers generally panned the show, often savagely. In 2002, TV Guide proclaimed it to be the second-worst of all time, just behind The Jerry Springer Show.[1] In 2010 The O’Reilly Factor recorded its viewers as listing it as the worst show of all time.

Sooo, maybe if think of Obama as a CAR, then the whole Birther Question would make more sense. Because it is like the CARFAX commercials where somebody asks for the CARFAX, and keeps getting the run around from the used car salesmen. (I’ve got something BETTER than CARFAX!!! I have a NOTE from the previous Owner!!! “This car runs great. I promise.”)

Because isn’t this simply what we keep running into from Obama and the Obotski???

I’ve got something better than BIRTHFAX! – I have a PICTURE of the short form!!! (With no verifiable information. Show me the BIRTHFAX.)

I’ve got something better than BIRTHFAX! – I have TWO, count ‘em TWO Birth Announcements in Hawaii Newspapers!!! (That DON’T say WHERE Obama was born. They just say he was born, and provide his grandparent’s address in Hawaii. What, was he born at their house or something??? Just show me the BIRTHFAX.)

I’ve got something better than BIRTHFAX! – I have a NOTE from some lady in Hawaii who swears she seen it!!! (Great! She says it exists. Sooo, can we see the BIRTHFAX now???)

But, NOBODY can see a BIRTHFAX anymore. It’s Against the law!!! (What, the President and his good friend, the Governor of Hawaii are going to go to jail for coughing up the BIRTHFAX??? C,mon! I wasn’t born yesterday. Show me the BIRTHFAX)

But, some people are happy with the short form and don’t want to see the BIRTHFAX!!! (Good for them! But, I’m not. Show me the BIRTHFAX.)

But, it’s on this Index of Live Birth thing!!! (Good. That means there is an original entry of something somewhere. Show me the BIRTHFAX.)

But, all the SMART people think you’re crazy!!! (I don’t care. Show me the BIRTHFAX.)

But, if you want to see the BIRTHFAX, you’re a RACIST!!! (WTF??? That’s stupid! Show me the BIRTHFAX.)

This is pretty much the situation. And there really are similarities between the TV show, and Obama. He really is the worst president of all time. Let us hope My President, the Car is not renewed for a second season.

OH, and plus, I asked this on another thread, so if anybody knows the answer:

I am fighting with a Obot on another forum, and he just gave me this really big COLB, and I just noticed something. The COLB says right on it, at the bottom: ANY ALTERATIONS INVALIDATE THIS CERTIFICATE Then, up above where it has CERTIFICATE NO..it is BLACKED OUT.

Which is a ALTERATION. Which means the PICTURE on the Internet is INVALIDATED, right??? Sooo, has this ever come up before??? Because if it hasn't then there never has been a UN-INVALIDATED COLB on the Internet??? Right???

You gotta read the “fine print.”

Harold says, while looking at copies of Obama’s Certification of Live Birth (COLB) on the DailyKos and Obama’s FightTheSmears websites, I noticed something I have not seen commented on before. At the bottom of the form it says:

“This copy serves as prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court proceeding.”

“The fact of birth.” It’s funny how I missed this important point. The COLB is intended ONLY to attest that the person was born — nothing else. In a sense, it affirms what we can logically assume simply by looking AT Obama. If he’s standing there he must have been born. The COLB is not useful, as evidence, outside of the birth itself, and not the circumstances, such as father, mother, attending physician or nurse, or even the date.

Words are everything when it comes to legislation. Courts wrestle with them when a case hinges on the interpretation of legislative intent. What did the legislature mean when it used a certain word rather than another? Cases can be decided one way or another depending on whether a judge believes that Congress intended something that is otherwise unclear in the legislation itself.

I am struck by the fact that the disclaimer uses “fact of birth” rather than “facts of birth.” The latter would encompass far more than the latter and could be interpreted to mean the name of the father and mother, doctor, date, etc. Again, words are everything, so I assume that when the Hawaiian legislature passed those statutes they meant “fact” rather than “facts” for a reason.

Personally, I believe that the COLB was intended only to provide an individual with a basic document establishing bona fides. That is, it shows that the person whose name is on the document really was born and is not a fictitious individual. I wonder if I had printed out that COLB on appropriately marked paper and took it into a bank if they would accept it as proof that I was Barack Obama. I doubt it.
