He was never on board with this President and he thinks Axelrod's caucus strategy in the primaries was sneaky and undemocratic.
He's enjoying this.
Go JAKE!! He’s the ONLY media person asking about the LONG FORM!!
Axelrod sure changed the subject fast. Hahaha!!
Axelrod. Typical elite. So arrogant in their own superiority that they can not see the forest for the trees..
Alexrod thought he was deflecting when asked about the "long form"...but his comment was actually an admission that Obama has something to hide!
“the only people who want to keep things secret are folks who have something to hide.”
IRONIC that the greaseball’s answer (above) came right after JACOB asked about the long form.
Mark my words, this was not a lone person opening this subject in the media. There is something deeper going on here. Tapper had the go ahead from higher ups on this deal. They are going to slowly open this debate up to either force O out or get him to resign.
Hoo boy! Those birthers sure are whackjobs aren’t they yukyukyuk. Soooo, anyway, what about that long form ?
AXELROD: Someone once in the course of this debate about whether we should have a law to force these organizations to disclose where they’re money is coming from in the campaigns, someone said, and I think they’re right – “the only people who want to keep things secret are folks who have something to hide.”
Then tell Barack to AUTHORIZE RELEASE OF HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE THAT REVEALS WHAT HOSPITAL HE WAS BORN IN!! What's he hiding??
So Meathead, where’s the long form birf certificate?
Answer the question.
TAPPER: The long form?
I suggest the Chamber of commerce offer an exchange - a verifiable, original long form BC in exchange for entertaining a discussion on their donors and why they must, as a protection against being intimidate by potential oppressive governments, remain anonymous.
Jake needs to ask Axelrod about the Two brothers in Gaza who used their credit card to give the 2008 Obama campaign some money.
What about Obama’s receiving contributions from Rafa, Gaza?
How has the FEC investigated these abuses that occured in 2008. I bet it’s been swept under Obummer’s rug. Saul Alinsky 101 accuse the other side of the same things your doing so that it makes them look like they are guilty and you are innocent.

The FEC has compiled a separate database of potentially questionable overseas donations [to the Obama campaign] that contains more than 11,500 contributions totaling $33.8 million. More than 520 listed their “state” as “IR,” often an abbreviation for Iran. Another 63 listed it as “UK,” the United Kingdom.
More than 1,400 of the overseas entries clearly were U.S. diplomats or military personnel, who gave an APO address overseas. Their total contributions came to just $201,680. But others came from places as far afield as Abu Dhabi, Addis Ababa, Beijing, Fallujah, Florence, Italy, and a wide selection of towns and cities in France.
Until recently, the Obama Web site allowed a contributor to select the country where he resided from the entire membership of the United Nations, including such friendly places as North Korea and the Islamic Republic of Iran. Unlike McCain’s or Sen. Hillary Clinton’s online donation pages, the Obama site did not ask for proof of citizenship until just recently....
In July and August, the head of the Nigeria’s stock market held a series of pro-Obama fundraisers in Lagos, Nigeria’s largest city. The events attracted local Nigerian business owners. At one event, a table for eight at one fundraising dinner went for $16,800. Nigerian press reports claimed sponsors raked in an estimated $900,000. The sponsors said the fundraisers were held to help Nigerians attend the Democratic convention in Denver. But the Nigerian press expressed skepticism of that claim, and the Nigerian public anti-fraud commission is now investigating the matter.
In June, Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi gave a public speech praising Obama, claiming foreign nationals were donating to his campaign. “All the people in the Arab and Islamic world and in Africa applauded this man,” the Libyan leader said. “They welcomed him and prayed for him and for his success, and they may have even been involved in legitimate contribution campaigns to enable him to win the American presidency...”
[O]n July 31 that donors from the Gaza strip had contributed $33,000 to the Obama campaign through bulk purchases of T-shirts they had shipped to Gaza.... A pair of Palestinian brothers named Hosam and Monir Edwan contributed more than $31,300 to the Obama campaign in October and November 2007, FEC records show. Their largesse attracted the attention of the FEC almost immediately. In an April 15, 2008, report that examined the Obama campaign’s year-end figures for 2007, the FEC asked that some of these contributions be reassigned. The Obama camp complied sluggishly, prompting a more detailed admonishment form the FEC on July 30. The Edwan brothers listed their address as “GA,” as in Georgia, although they entered “Gaza” or “Rafah Refugee camp” as their city of residence on most of the online contribution forms.... The latest Obama campaign filing shows that $891.11 still has not been refunded to the Edwan brothers, despite repeated FEC warnings and campaign claims that all the money was refunded in December.
A ...review of the Obama campaign finance filings found that the FEC had asked for the redesignation or refund of 53,828 donations, totaling just under $30 million.
But none involves the donors who never appear in the Obama campaign reports, which the [Center for Responsive Politics] estimates at nearly half the $426.8 million the Obama campaign has raised to date
Nice swerve there, Axelneck.
The Obama Impeachment: January 2011
TAPPER: But what do you say to people who argue you are demonizing an organization for a charge that nobody knows if it's true or not?AXELROD: Well I’m not demonizing the Chamber of Commerce. I’m simply suggesting to them that they disclose the source of the $75 million that they are spending in campaigns and put to rest, put to rest the questions that have been, that have been raised.
TAPPER: Isn't that like the whackjobs that tell the president he needs to show them his full long-form birth certificate so he can put to rest the questions that have been raised?
AXELROD: The president’s birth certificate has been available to people.
TAPPER: The long form?
“Derp is an expression sometimes used online to signify stupidity, much like the earlier forms of “duh” and “dur.”
