Not even the U.S. Supreme Court can kill the dispute that has developed over Sen. Barack Obama's eligibility to occupy the Oval Office based on questions raised over his birthplace and citizenship and his steadfast refusal to provide documentation on the issue.

You’ve been posting on these threads and you know very clearly what the issues are or you should. I’m not going to waste my time laying them all out as they have been laid out ad nauseum.
For some reason you and other Freepers have a blind spot about this issue.
This is an open message board where some people get a little carried away with speculation. It’s likely that some are even here to spread disinformation.
For the most part I’ve been very impressed with the amount of work/research private citizens have done here and on other blogs during the election and after since the media has been derelict in their duties . Most have been very scrupulous in describing their findings as fact or speculation.
On the Democratic Disaster Web site.
My fellow Freepers? I have no solidarity with the crackpot Truthers who have monopolized this forum, posting 30+ threads a day and turning this place into moonbat central. This nonsense is deserving of ridicule.
I think for myself. The last job I interviewed for required that I produce an a COLB. You know, the one that is black with white lettering. One like Obama put on his website would not do. It was very easy for me to provide that. I wrote a letter, mailed it and in a little over a week I had the document I needed.
Obama refuses to do that. Do you think, and wonder why? I’m sorry but I have to wonder what he is hiding, and it concerns me greatly. Is his allegience to this country? One could wonder considering Rev. Wright, Ayers, his memberhsip in the Socialist Party, etc.
So maybe you should reconsider who it is that is thinking and who is not.
I apologize, I aimed my arrow in the wrong direction;( sorry:)
“You may underestimate the popularity of Obama abroad. A family member was working in African during the weeks before and after Obama’s elected. Everywhere she went the native folks chanted “O-BAM-A!” repeatedly. Obama is the darling of the planet. It would make our country and the already unpopular Bush very hated and completely undermine our credibility.”
This is simply infuriating. Is this an election or a global popularity contest? Don’t worry, with or without Obama, they’ll spit on you again soon enough. It is just pathetic if America and Americans permit their laws to undermined by the attitudes of people who will always put themselves and their countries first.
First of all, that statement I responded to in your last post is a xerox that you've been pasting into new posts up and down these threads.
I took your cutout statement apart for you last night, and debunked, or corrected every single point, yet here you are asking me what you lied about.
How about reading the detailed rebuttal I posted to you last night about the same erroneous statement you made then?
I'm convinced that you're an Obama operative, working the conservative forums to sow doubt and disillusionment. Your employer obviously isn't getting much for his money, because it's not working.
“I won’t disagree with that. What baffles me is why a simple request for a BC is so taboo to most of the conservative press.”
It’s not taboo. It’s been shared on factcheck.org. If Obama’s Certificate of Live Birth (COLB) isnt good enough, nothing is.
factcheck.org and about 100 other places via a quick search.
I'm speechless.
a) The U.S. Constitution says you must be a natural born citizen to be eligible for the Presidency.”
YES.
“b) Obama has produced no proof of that fact.*”
YES HE HAS. COLB, plus birth announcement, plus passports. He was born in the USA and to say otherwise is to believe in a fairy tale over truth.
“BTW, to some of the others who have responded, I wouldnt use the term Troll. I think we will see 4 years of Paid Obama Operatives waging psyops on blogs, message boards, and newspaper editorials. He used these methods in the campaign, and he still has 30 million dollars laying around.”
Ah yes, Michelle Malkin is one as well, now right???
plus passports
***My wife was born in Taiwan and she has a US Passport.
“Obviously I got awhole LOT of reading of Constitutional Law to do.”
No you dont. Obama was born in Honolulu,USA, therefore is a natural born citizen, case closed.
“One like Obama put on his website would not do. It was very easy for me to provide that. I wrote a letter, mailed it and in a little over a week I had the document I needed.”
Obama produced a real COLB, it was as real as yours, it was photgraphed and shared. he did exactly what you did.

“Obama refuses to do that.”
Not true. Go here.
“
We beg to differ. FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the original birth certificate. We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship. Claims that the document lacks a raised seal or a signature are false. We have posted high-resolution photographs of the document as “supporting documents” to this article. Our conclusion: Obama was born in the U.S.A. just as he has always said.”

“plus passports”
Oh goodie, you’ve seen them. Tell us what they say oh grand mighty WOSG, knower of all things.
“It is a paper issued to people born abroad a”
False. COLB is a Certificate of Live Birth, which is another way of saying ‘birth certificate’.
