What Up With Your Birth Certificate, Mr. Transparency?

For a fellow who claims to have invented the concept of transparency in American politics and government, Barack Obama's behavior is most peculiar, especially when it comes to his birth certificate.

Obama claims that he was born in Honolulu, Hawaii on August 4, 1961, has released his birth certificate, and that the matter is closed.

Furthermore, when asked about the controversy during a recent news briefing, White House Spokesman Robert Gibbs broke down into hysterical laughter and answered by saying, "We won!"

Thanks for that professional insight, Mr. Gibbs. Campaigning to be Obama's Transparency Czar are you?

Although Barack Obama's eligibility was challenged in filings with the SCOTUS (not accepted for review), the issue has been mostly a sidebar concern given the terrible state of the economy and volatile world crises and near crises.

However, the pursuit for truth has led Joseph Farah at World Net Daily and other patriots to keep the issue alive.

As they say in sports, "It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings!" and in the case of Barack Obama's birth certificate, the fat lady weighs about 45 pounds and is just starting singing lessons.

Which means this issue is not going away just because some hillbilly press secretary says so.

Know this Mr. Gibbs: Winning an election does not render the US Constitution null and void. Just like the white dudes who preceded him, Obama is bound by the laws that form the basis for our great nation.

Remember this as well: Obama was elected president, not Messiah, King, World Citizen, Muslim Appeaser, or Apologist-in-chief.

Of course, it may turn out that there is a perfectly reasonable explanation for all of this, and that the issue is simply overblown hyperbole crafted by right wing extremists to keep Obama from converting a free market democracy into a socialist-fascist nanny state in less than six months.

* His birth certificate is in Arabic, rather than Hawaiian, and includes the phrase "New Born Warrior for Allah";

* Because of a queasy stomach at birth, Obama's nickname was recorded as CHANGE, referring to the non-stop regiment of diaper duties dumped on hospital nurses.

The term also became the motto of his presidential campaign years later, but now it is We the People who are stuck with cleaning up after the One.

* Obama's birth certificate lists his mother as a virgin and his birth as a contemporary miracle of Pele, the Hawaiian Goddess of Volcanoes and other hot air.

* His birth certificate describes Obama as clean and articulate, probably a gift from Pele to the only black dude born in Honolulu that month.

My own personal opinion is that Obama was born in a Mosque in Tikrit, Iraq, also the birth place of the deposed and very dead Saddam Hussein, who until now was the most famous Tikriter ever born.

Obama's middle name (Hussein) reflects the Obama family reverence for the former Baghdad butcher.

Bottom Line: In my view, Obama owes We the People a full and complete explanation of his birth, including release of a certifiable birth certificate!

He needs to answer the question: What Up With Your Birth Certificate, Mr. Transparency President?

You can’t change the rules after game starts.

Suppose celebrity Republicans Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was born in Austria and singer Gloria Estefan, who was born in Cuba, chose to run for President.
They would be prevented from doing so since per Article 2, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution, one must be a natural born citizen of the United States to hold office as President. Their births in Austria and Cuba would not be considered natural born citizenship.

A case might be made that Barack Obama knew that he was not eligibile to serve as President since he’s probably not a natural born citizen. Consequently, he forged a “Certification of Live Birth” (COLB) and advertised it to the American people as authentic.

Dr. Ron Polarik analyzed Obama’s COLB and determined it to be a forgery. I firmly agree with him. The enclosed link provides Polarik’s article and displays the alleged forged document while pointing out altered numbers and discrepancies, etc.:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2136816/posts

It is a felony to forge a government document and there could be a multitude of felony counts contained here against Obama.

Dr. Polarik has also indicated that he will update this report.

We the American people have the right to know if our President is eligible to hold office. For many, Obama has not proven this requirement.

Obama, I ask, WHERE were you born in Hawaii? Prove it! Where is your original birth certificate? Where?

The authorities MUST enforce the Constitution and require Obama to prove that he is a natural born American citizen. Action on this case is past due! If the Constitution were not going to be enforced, Schwarzenegger or Estefan could have been on the Republican ticket in 2008. What law permits the Democrats special privileges?

In closing, our past Presidents have Birthplace Museums. Just to name a few, Ronald Reagan has a Birthplace Museum in Tampico, Illinois and Bill Clinton has a Birthplace Museum in Hope, Arkansas where they were born. Where will Barack Obama’s Birthplace Museum be located at? At the Coast Provincial General Hospital in Mombasa, Kenya?

Here is Gov (commerce secretary elect)Bill Richardson saying in Spanish that Obama is an "immigrant." (So he understands understands "immigrant" issues.)The context suggests that by "immigrant" bill richardson means "illegal immigrant"

Here in plain English is the Kenyan Ambassador saying that Obama is born in Kenya.

Obama's own flacks deny that obama was born in Kenya but do acknowledge that he had a dual citizenship up until 1982

from obama's own site factcheck.org by way of fightthesmears on his dual citizenship at birth

“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.

Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982.”(Someone will want to cache the above web page because it will be taken down eventually.)

Here is the problem with fighthesmears narrative: We already have recorded that Obama's wife michellle said Obama's mother was "very young and very single" when obama was born. British law at the time of obama's birth only gave citizenship from the father to the son in the case that the father is married to the mother:ie the son is legitimate. See wikipedia 2.4.3Since obama's parents were NOT married -- how did obama get his British/Kenyancitizenship? Its not unreasonable to think that he got his British/Kenyan because he was born there--and not because of his parentage. Interestingly, recently both WorldNetDaily and DailyKos have reported that a copy of Obamas Kenyan Birth Certificate is on sale at ebay by an accredited seller. For more google references to the seller see colmado_naranja Once again, Just one piece of evidence could easily be dismissed. It is the accumulation of evidence that is troubling.
It is well established that Obama did travel to Indonesia and Pakistan in 1981. In a tape of his speech at this April 6, 2008 San Francisco Fundraiser, Obama discloses his trip to Pakistan (40:17) when he was in college. On what passport did he travel?

A last arguement for baraks people might be that of course the Kenyans would have an interest in claiming that obama was a "son of the soil" both as a matter of pride and as a matter of bucks coming their way. However, if Obama was not born in Kenya -- then why wouldn't Obama release his original long form birth certificate. Instead of just releasing his long form birth certificate he has paid his lawyers 1 million dollars from campaign contributions since Sept 08 to squash the suits brought on the issue. On top of that according to the LA Times since the election -- the Kenyans feel that Obama has gone out of his way to snub/ignore/distance-himself them. The Kenyans are putting up reasons like perhaps they are insufficiently perfected for him to notice them--but here in the USA we have seen Obama throw a number of embarrasing people from his past under the bus. Obama is going to Africa. Will he visit Kenya? Nope. Exactly What IS a Natural Born Citizen?

The thing has become a joke in washington. Joe Biden Joked at the Gridiron Dinner in March 09.

After mentioning one of the Republican speakers for the evening, Arnold Schwarzenegger, was born in Austria and that one of the Democratic speakers, Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm, was born in Canada, Biden chortled: "Folks, this is going to be Lou Dobbs' worst nightmare. "

From there, Biden transitioned to the birth certificate controversy.

Les Kinsolving asked the Presidential Press Secretary Gibbs to release the long form birth certificate. The press secretary suggested mockingly that the copy of the short form birth certificate supplied online is Obama's long form birth certificate. Not so.There is even evidence to suggest the online "certification of live birth"--ie not a birth certificate--obama presented... was a forgery. See the press conference out take here.

The White House 'dialogue' site has to be scrubbed regularly because of long form birth certificate eligibility posts.

Rush Limbaugh joked several times on his radio show on 6/10/09: "What do God and Obama have in commen? (Answer) Neither have birth certificates."

Even the liberal LA Times on June 30, 2009 in an article dripping with contempt--conceded that the thing Obama's people posted online was "technically... not a birth certificate".

A bill in the US congress with five backers currently -- calls for future presidential candidates to be required to show a birth certificate.

>The Honorable John Jay UNDERLINED what he thought was important so that you, more than a century later, could see it.

Yes, but ‘seeing’ it doesn’t mean that I can read it. (IE maybe my bad eyes, or the script, other factors, or some combination thereof.)

>The Criminals in Black Robes have robbed Americans.

On this we can and do agree. Examples:
— The 25Jun05 decision legitimizing theft and larceny under the governmental-approval of Immanent Domain.
— The refusal to hear allegations against Pr Obama’s eligibility; they could shut everyone up on the matter by doing things by-the-book and verifying his status as a Natural Born Citizen.
— The refusal to hear the complaints of GM/Chrysler bondholders against the unilateral actions of the Executive branch breaching the contracts backing the bonds themselves.
— The refusal to strike down Bills not read, as in the TARP bill or the Cap & Trade bill; how can the Legislature do their job, Constitutionally speaking, if they have not even read the bill on which they vote (and pass)?

And, salt in the wound, what of John Murtha’s on-record actions convicting & condemning Marines in a warzone w/o trial? How much more do you have to do to give aid & comfort to the enemy? Or do we ignore that part and think only of actively waging war on the US as treason?

Here you go (with the exception of two inconsequential words - or more likely abbreviations that I can’t make out):

New York 25 July 1787

Dear Sir,

I was this morning honored with your Excellency’s favor of the 22nd (indecipherable): I immediately delivered the letter it enclosed to Commodore Jones, who being detained by business did not go on the french Sacket, which sailed yesterday.

Permit me to hint, whether it would not be wise & reasonable to provide a strong check to the adoption of foreigners into the administration of our national government; and to declare expressly that the command in chief of the American army shall not be given to, or devolved on, any but a natural born citizen.

Mrs. Jay is obliged by your attention, and assures you of her esteem and regard – with similar sentiments the most cordial and sincere,

I remain

Dear Sir

Your faithful friend (indecipherable)

John Jay

His Excellency General Washington
