Check into Operation Mockingbird ^ before you totally discount the basic premise behind this. Goebbels has a very large following!

You no doubt are clueless as to what’s at stake and the information that indicates that O was not born here.

My guess is you’re a moderate (socialist) republican just doing your part of suppressing the great unwashed from ourselves.

You should read my home page before spouting such nonsense.

9/11 was in fact conspired by OBL and executed by 19 hijackers.

So your point was false.

A great example of why the talkers aren’t following you down this path, at this time.

Appreciate the confirmation.

Drudge has a headline concerning this issue. Is he also a nut?

I wish Glenn Beck was still on the air.

BTW- SC Justice C. Thomas has read the documents and determined to pass it to other members of the court and have the meeting Friday.

Is he also in the same pot with me?

Drudge once had a headline related to Building Seven at the WTC.

Appreciate you going out of your way to make my point.

To: dascallie; All

AND having said all I did in #41, another thought occurs to me now, one that relates back to the issue in question:
the whole birth certificate issue could just be coyly played by Team Obama——chosing to ignore deadlines,challenges, etc. while ALL THE WHILE knowing he IS legitimately , constitutionally qualified to be President (if he in fact is, and for the sake of this argument, I am assuming he is) could be an effective way of bringing out “the worst” in the opposition, those who continue making an issue of this. The petitioners and skeptics could take it further, right up to and past election day, making a lot of noise, and making fools of themselves for all to see, UNTIL the moment when Obama and his minions produce incontrovertible proof that he was born in Hawaii, within acceptable timelines, etc. That would both serve to consolidate, (or re-establish) good faith in him, and make his opponents look like racists, beneath-contempt-loons, etc, just deserving of a crackdown.

“it’s reminiscent of the `German thing’ - where ordinary, proud, conservative, responsible Germans suddenly realized that their livelihoods and perhaps their lives depended upon supporting a powerful `new order.’

This has certainly been true about the homosexual movement. One is threatened with loss of livelihood and worse.

I am one of those that is maintaining an open mind that P.E. Obama may not be constitutionally qualified, and I want the evidence to be examined by the SCOTUS. However, the rantings of this article (as quoted above) are just plain over the top nuts.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

More over the top nuts than the FACT that James Carville warned of hell to pay if Obama went into the election ahead in the polls but did not win? More over the top nuts than this nation electing a fruitcake who promised to defeat poverty, disease and climate change? More nuts than a president-elect who spends huge sums on legal fees to avoid showing his birth certificate? More nuts than the fact that he was elected by people who do WORSE THAN CHANCE on the either or question of which party controls congress?
It seems to me there is way too much over the top nuttiness all around us for me to call this article over the top nuts!

A month or so ago, I had occasion to mention “Posse Comitatus” which most of you ignored then—ignoring it here again is not wise.

I just love when Freepers make this sort of pronounce meant. Do you really think that "most" Freepers even read your comment?

And what about SCJ Thomas?

He’s a nut job too?

I don’t know what the truth of this issue concerning the BC. But I do know that Friday the SC is discussing this and no one on talk radio is saying one word.

My question to you is why?

I did read it, and even Google'd it. Take it with a grain of salt, whatever. See http://www.au.af.mil/au/aul/bibs/posse/posse.htm. Did you know U.S. Army National Guards were called during L.A. 1992 riot? And did you know Pentagon planning to integrated U.S. Army National Guards with local police soon to help enforce the law? MSNBC got it in their website.

Why? Because if it ends up being a ridiculous fools errand they don’t want it being used to debunk anything they say on any other political topic.

The usual, mocking The Messiah for change that isn’t - meaning former Clinton admin types in office - and the all to familiar Glenn Beck 16 minute whining.

I have to say, there are an awful lot of FReepers who have no clue as to how the Supreme Court works, or even how the legal system works.

Even assuming that Thomas has passed one of the birth certificate cert petitions around for conference on Friday, that doesn't mean he's necessarily in favor of granting cert, let alone that there are the required four justices who would vote to grant cert.

And even if, by some miracle, four justices did vote to grant cert, that doesn't mean Obama is going to personally be required to show the nine justices all of his birth records, or anything else. The Supreme Court is an appellate court, and appellate courts review lower court decisions; they don't receive evidence. There would be briefing and oral argument on the standing issue. Period.

So we have two highly unlikely events that would have to happen in sequence: first, the court would have to grant cert, and second, it would have to reverse longstanding and well-established precedent on standing (and essentially mire itself once more in presidential politics).

You will win the lottery for ten consecutive weeks before you see that.

Sir I understand how it works. But just like others you miss the point.

Conservative talk radio isn’t talking about it at ALL.

As I said I don’t know what the outcome will be. But my God, everyone is silent in hopes it just goes away.
