John Dean, a President Nixon staffer as Watergate was about to unfold, told his boss, "There is a cancer on your presidency."
Would any member of President Obama's staff dare tell him any such thing today?
Watergate was Nixon's 800-pound gorilla everybody talked about, who sat there until he broke the sofa. The location of Obama's birth is an 800-pound gorilla that gets fatter every day and nobody — at least nobody in major media — likes to admit its existence. There's never been a coming-together of factors resembling this one in America's entire political history.
At no point until now has the birthplace of a president been anything more than a local chamber-of-commerce item of pride (where I come, from they're still arguing whether President James Polk was born in Tennessee or North Carolina!). All of a sudden the question of President Obama's birth place threatens to undermine his very eligibility to serve, and to toss America into a constitutional crisis of unfathomable proportions.
In-depth journalism here would instinctively immerse itself in the growing blizzard of lawsuits launched by activists seeking "standing" (Do you have the right to question the president's eligibility to serve?) and writs of certiorari (Hey, Court! Will you please hear this case?). In-depth journalism would detail how many and who in which states are making the pile of challenges zoom.
In-depth journalism would distinguish between the challenges to President Obama's legitimacy on grounds of his alleged birth in Kenya versus his alleged status as a British subject by virtue of his father's citizenship. That's what in-depth journalism would do.

Yes, I made about three versions. They evolved.
I’ve found them everywhere, on Google, blogs, etc.
Someone named Chrissie who has theodoresworld.net, on SodaHeads forum...
ZERO doesn’t need a BC now. He has been elected and now he follows no laws. Next is the proclamation by him as emperor though there is no need for that...it has just been assumed.
As for his mate running in 2020 as specualted...not necessary. Recall the black dress with the red X? Black widow....

You dominate GOOGLE Image Search potlatch!
Any word O’s realtive that Orly supposedly was in contact with? The person was supposedly in the military and with their help the birth certificate could be pulled.
No no! Just occasionally see something. More apt to find them on people’s blogs and forums. Chrissy apologized to me and took hers down. The name had been removed.
It’s not a question of his citizenship when he applied to Columbia/Harvard, but when he was born. I think he was a citizen during his college years because he and his beloved wife have spoken of paying off his college loans ... non-citizens are not eligible for financial aid. I think they DO ask about citizenship but not place of birth if you are a citizen when applying.
This whole issue could be gone in a nano-second if he’d produce a certified copy of his birth certificate .. no suits anywhere. Just makes it that much fishier.
Any reason why you think something will happen before the end of the year?
Resizing that would be major job. LOL
Trying to get something for you, Ron. Know this...and know it’s not entirely in my authority to do so.

Aha
You had a lot on that “graphic of the day” site
Where is ‘the graphic of the day’ site?
.
Maybe it was “’Toon Of The Day”
You had lots there
Many with your name removed too.....
Names weren’t removed on Pookie18’s threads. He still picks some up and posts them at W.A. site. Others have alerted me.
You must have seen them on some other [graphic of the day’ site. Powerline has plenty..
Many with TinyPic. urls.
ping...
That's an interesting way to put it.
Actually, Rush has alluded to it on his show in an oblique way, IIRC. There may come a time, though, when a “critical mass” will be reached and no one can afford to ignore it.
Besides Farber and Keyes, Sen. Sessions (R-AL) mentioned it at a meeting in his state, and a freshman GOP congressman from Florida (taking notice, undoubtedly) introduced a bill to require future candidates for federal office to document that they are constitutionally qualified for the offices they seek.
bttt
In all fairness, Farber showed the guts to come out from under the rock - better late than never. Some of the others in his business are still hiding there.
