Bush Orders 'Amnesty' for Foreign-Born McCain (Scrappleface)

President George Bush today signed an executive order granting ‘amnesty’ to foreign-born Sen. John McCain, allowing the presumptive Republican nominee to bypass the Constitutional requirement that a president be a “natural born citizen.”

John Sidney McCain III was born in the Panama Canal zone when his Naval officer father was stationed there in 1936. The Supreme Court has never definitively interpreted the phrase “natural born”, but no person known to be born outside U.S. borders has ever been elected president.

Under President Bush’s order, Sen. McCain would be granted an immediate ‘P visa’ allowing him to remain in the U.S., with ‘guest candidate’ status, as he works toward full presidential eligibility.

Oh no! McCain gets a pass for being born in Panama but Obama doesn’t for being a citizen of Kenya? There will be hell to pay for this! ;^)

Sorry, Scrappleface, but the satire is 218 years out of date.

Naturalization Act of 1790 ..... "the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond Sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born Citizens".

Hey Jorge...

Call the speech police. You are in violation of the politician name code. Off with your head.

What is so funny about this should McNut become president is when the Panamanians wake up and realize a Panamanian is president of the U.S.

They are not in tune yet…but just wait.
