Rush Limbaugh continued his phony rant about President Obama having a messianic complex on his radio show today. Limbaugh stated that God and Obama do have something in common. Neither one of them have a birth certificate. Of course this isn’t true, and here are the links to prove it.
Here is the audio: (AT LINK)
Limbaugh said, “A lot of people talk about Barack Obama and his messianic complex. He does have one thing in common with God. Barack Obama has one thing in common with God. Do you know what it is? God doesn’t have a birth certificate either…God does not have a birth certificate neither does Obama, not that we have seen.”
I can’t believe that Limbaugh has dug up this old and false rumor again. If you would like to see a copy of Obama’s birth certificate, you can find it here, at snopes.com In addition, whatreallyhappened .com has the birth announcements from Hawaii’s two major newspapers that Barack H. Obama and his wife had a son on August 4, 1961.
Unless some Democratic operative went back in time, created a false birth certificate then ran two fake birth announcements in the newspapers, the evidence shows that Obama was in fact born in the United States. Does anyone really think that Obama would have been allowed to run for any public office without having his citizenship verified?
Barack Obama’s birth certificate is readily available for view. It was released publicly by his campaign in order to put this rumor to rest. Limbaugh is lying and he knows it. By the way the only person who seems to be talking about Obama’s messianic complex is Rush Limbaugh.
Rush has been desperately trying for days, with no success, to attach Evan Thomas’ comments about Obama on Hardball last week to the president. The only messianic complex I see in this conversation belongs to Rush Limbaugh.
I would like to add a quote by Thomas Jefferson “We can say with confidence that a natural born citizen of the U.S. means those persons born whose father the U.S. already has an established jurisdiction over, i.e. born to fathers who are themselves citizens of the U.S.” 1777
There’s also a problem that Rush has that we “chattering classes” don’t. Zero’s brownshirts can’t do much about hundreds of thousands of us talking and may not even try. Rush on the other hand has a microphone and a large audience which paints a target on him.
Given what we’ve seen from Obama so far, it may be too dangerous for Rush to go far out on the limb at this point. I think that’s changing.
No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the United States.
And this:
Natural-born citizen Who is a natural-born citizen? Who, in other words, is a citizen at birth, such that that person can be a President someday?
The 14th Amendment defines citizenship this way: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside." But even this does not get specific enough. As usual, the Constitution provides the framework for the law, but it is the law that fills in the gaps.
Currently, Title 8 of the U.S. Code fills in those gaps. Section 1401 defines the following as people who are "citizens of the United States at birth:"
•Anyone born inside the United States
•Any Indian or Eskimo born in the United States, provided being a citizen of the U.S. does not impair the person's status as a citizen of the tribe
•Any one born outside the United States, both of whose parents are citizens of the U.S., as long as one parent has lived in the U.S.
•Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year and the other parent is a U.S. national
•Any one born in a U.S. possession, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year
•Any one found in the U.S. under the age of five, whose parentage cannot be determined, as long as proof of non-citizenship is not provided by age 21
•Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time)
•A final, historical condition: a person born before 5/24/1934 of an alien father and a U.S. citizen mother who has lived in the U.S.
* There is an exception in the law - the person must be "subject to the jurisdiction" of the United States. This would exempt the child of a diplomat, for example, from this provision.
Anyone falling into these categories is considered natural-born, and is eligible to run for President or Vice President. These provisions allow the children of military families to be considered natural-born, for example.

God is God.
Obama is a golden calf.
I think they have the goods and have had them for a while. As much as we all want Rush to push hard on this - he is not like the rest of us. He has a lot to lose as well as people who work for him and rely on him. He helps keep AM radio alive.
I think they were waiting for the right time and we must be close. I am hoping this is the start but I could be wrong. He did not just start mentioning this for no reason.
What’s the name of the doctor who delivered Obama?
This is the part where Obambi fails IF he wasn't born in the U.S., and why do we have to explain it over and over again to people with reading comprehension problem or simply uninformed?!
If you're suggesting arrest and/or imprisonment, that would blow the lid off the powderkeg that simmering right now. It would delight the SRM to no end, but independents would be aghast at such a blatant disregard for the First Amendment.
Another poster mentioned timing. I trust that Rush knows what he's doing. What would really delight me is a rogue CIA operative publicly release the real BC.
Honestly, I don't see The First Thug lasting 4 years in office; he's never faced any serious adversity in his life. The pressure of the job will ultimately get to him and he'll quit in a fit of hysteria, running & crying to his mommy/Michelle.
With dipstick Biden in charge, the country will ignore him and run itself until 2012.
God doesn’t have a birth certificate, why should Barack Obama?
!LOL! Is that an actual quote from James Carville?
Rush has more wisdom in his little toe than most people do in their entire brain. He has good reason for doing and saying what he does.
I’ve thought about that. It’s also true that Rush stands out enough that I think the 0bama thugs would come after him under any circumstances if they thought they dared. So, the question becomes what does Rush stand to lose going after 0bama that he wouldn’t lose anyway.
It’s an interesting call.
From Donofrio’s website: http://naturalborncitizen.wordpress.com/2008/12/11/natural-born-citizen-defined-by-14th-amendment-framers-and-in-treatise-relied-on-by-scalia/
THE FRAMERS OF THE 14TH AMENDMENT
Despite popular belief, the 14th Amendment does not convey the status of “natural born Citizen” in its text. It just conveys the status of “Citizen”. And it’s very clear that in the pre-amendment Constitution, the Framers made a distinction between a “Citizen” and a “natural born Citizen”. The requirement to be a Senator or Representative is “Citizen”, but the requirement to be President is “natural born Citizen”.
From the 14th Amendment:
“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and the State wherein they reside.”
Rush is so funny! The “libtards” need to get a sense of humour!
In my opinion, Shlep is a left leaning mouthpiece for the Liberal loons. He probably gets a 1040 from the White House...lmao. Maybe Shlep is using his FOX program to audition for Gibbs’ job?
Which makes the equation all the more interesting.
Plus God only asks for 10% and to be worshiped one day a week, unlike Obama.
Party affiliation and psychiatric evaluation fixed.
