Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Arizona is bound and determined to make sure we never forget the embarrassment of the birther movement. Most of us would love to put that ugly little racist blip in our history -- a time when conspiracy theorists and fools alike accused President Barack Obama of not being American. But Arpaio, a sheriff in Phoenix, Arizona, just won't give it up.
Can we say beating a dead horse, people? Sometimes it seems like certain politicians just do things to help out Stephen Colbert, Jon Stewart, and Bill Maher. After all, how else does anyone explain Arpaio's inane and insane assertion that Obama, a man who produced his birth certificate last year, isn't American?
See his ranting [here].
"Forgery or fraud may have been committed," says Arpaio. Ooooh no! Are ghosts and goblins real, too, Sheriff Arpaio? How about the Loch Ness Monster? Do you go visit old Nessie on your days off from enforcing the laws of Arizona?
In all seriousness, this is vile racism plain and simple. In a place like Arizona, it's no surprise -- after all, many politicians there (including Arpaio) hold rather Draconian views on immigration -- and it's disgusting. And it's getting old fast.
For all you doubters for whom book learning was apparently a challenge, here are the facts: President Barack Obama was born in Honolulu on August 4, 1961. He has produced both a certificate of live birth during the 2008 campaign and the long-form certificate last year. Neither has been disproved.
So why is this still going on? Arpaio seems like a joke, but, according to Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt, Republican Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney doesn't think so. Yesterday LaBolt tweeted:
Romney has called Arpaio for his endorsement, his aides called "weekly" and Arpaio was his honorary Chair in 08.That's embarrassing. The fact is, most people agree Arpaio is a few cards shy of a full deck, but here we are still talking about him. Is this an alternate universe? Why am I guessing this guy is the type of person who stays at parties hours after they have ended asking for more chips and guacamole? Dude, the party is over, the ship has sailed, and you are beating a dead horse.
Sadly, there aren't enough cliched ways to say IT'S OVER to make it any clearer to this guy.
Liberals seem to apply the “insane” label on anyone who disagrees with them especially when they can apply proof of their claims as the Obama BC is phoney.
I’m proud to be a birther for many reasons. One of them is to annoy the snot out of libtards like Sasha here.
IBTZ.
You realize he fell under the “citizen at the time of adoption of the constitution clause”, right? He was eligible because of that codicile.
I've summoned a few FRiends to help investigate. I hope you don't mind.
Due to 9-11 NY State tightened up its Dept. of Vital Statics Dept. rules for ID`s. Because I had a different last name from my siblings, the Social Security Administration and the State of New York wanted to know if I was adopted. They could not establish who I was even though my father and mother had used both the Italian and Americanized names. Thus for 7 years I was denied Social Security retirement benefits,
In order to obtain the benefits, I had to pay the SS Administration $41,000 fine for using a false name, and denial of Medicare until the 7th year [age 69]. I am denied to this day a NY State driver`s license or ID card coz I have no paper trail back to grade school.
How can Obummer ever pass such scrutiny as I did whose family on my mother`s side has been here for 350 years?
New York State treats it citizens like crap!
Kick that bum out of the WH!
NY State should come after Obummer for using false information at Columbia Univ and treat him as they treated me.
It’s not about whether he’s a citizen. It’s whether he’s a “natural born citizen.” Different things.
Please take me off of your ping list. Thank you.
I’ve already checked out the posting history of Short Bus and the couple of times Short Bus actually replied in a thread.
I think we have a retread here.
It’s clear that Short Bus knows how to post a reply. I’m just not sure why she won’t deny the charges being made on this thread that she actually is Sasha Brown Whatever.
The Zot.
I was in before. In after.
Why would anyone, let alone a n00b, post a blogger thread on FreeReupblic that contains these words: "In all seriousness, this is vile racism plain and simple. In a place like Arizona, it's no surprise -- after all, many politicians there (including Arpaio) hold rather Draconian views on immigration -- and it's disgusting. And it's getting old fast."
Troll.

We may have our new monthly victim.
ShortBus, a retread troll.
Pro-homo to boot.

Thank you for your trhead.
We just might choose one of them and beat up on you for a month.
Or, we may decide to hijack your thread to [redacted] land.
Thanks. “My” contra-birthers have disdain for anyone who believes the birth certificate and NBC are important.
That’s why I put the quote marks around “right-wing”.
This issue seems to bring out the worst in Hussein Heads, especially here, where many feel the need to come out of hiding to bash anyone who cares about Hussein’s fraud.
Also, look at my post above and how WRONG you are about the first document being a "certificate of live birth". Go look it up. You'll see it was a "certification of live birth", a different document under Hawaii law at the time even when Certificates of Live Birth were entered in the resister directly from hospital records.
You start off being wrong about the simplest thing, call people racist, and of course you disappear - the coward that you are.
Go somewhere else...there are grownups talking here.
Hey - that’s Howard Stern.
Ask any liberal
if little technicalities of the Constitution don’t really matter- why was Chief Justice Roberts summoned to inaugurate obama - twice?
(the second time in secret, closed cermoeny. No press permmitted. Why would any US president in this day and age be inagurated IN SECRET)
