RUSH: This is a town meeting in Delaware. An unidentified woman and Representative Mike Castle have the following exchange. It's about Obama's birth certificate.
WOMAN: I want to go back to January 20th, and I want to know, why are you people ignoring his birth certificate? (cheers and applause) He is not an American citizen. He is a citizen of Kenya. I am American. My father worked -- fought in World War II with the Greatest Generation in the Pacific theater for this country, and I don't want this flag to change. I want my country back! (cheers and applause)
CASTLE: If you're referring to the president there, he is a citizen of the United States. (crowd shouting)
WOMAN: All the men and women who died for this country in 1776 'til the present time. I think we should all stand up and give Pledge of Allegiance to that wonderful flag (cheers and applause) people that sacrificed their lives for our freedom. Everybody stand up.
RUSH: State of Delaware, Mike Castle, town meeting, woman wants to know why nobody's interested in the fact that he hasn't shown anybody his birth certificate. If you couldn't understand her, she was saying he's a citizen of Kenya. I'm American. My father worked, fought in World War II, the greatest generation, Pacific theater for this country, and I don't want this flag to change. The crowd went nuts. There's all kinds of stuff bubbling up out there.

Rep. Mike Castle, a Delaware moderate Republican, gets a taste of how popular among the GOP base is the belief that the president isn't a citizen and, by extension, isn't legitimate.
Dave Wiegel writes that the issue has been dogging Republicans around the country, as they many to tamp down the conspiracy theories while keeping faith with the base.
~~PING!
I don’t believe in any conspiracy theories. I just want to see Obama’s birth certificate. John McCain produced his own within 24 hours of being asked. Why won’t Obama? He could shut this whole issue down in one second if he produced his birth certificate.
One question: “Congressman Castle, have you personally seen Barack Hussein 0bama’s original birth certificate PROVING he is Constitutionally eligible to serve as the President of the United States, YES or NO?!?”
That woman was great! She did exactly what you have to do to these dopey congressman. Get in their face and let them see that the tide is turning! Let them see that people are tired of this crap!

...and on the lighter side, take your mind off the Obamanation for a few minutes and enjoy some beautiful Western US scenery slideshows.
Lets get Larry Klayman back! He sued the Clintons every five minutes and raised hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions of dollars. Of course he got laughed out of every court and never won a thing against them, but he did shear a lot of sheep of their money. Sorry, but thats what this smells like to me.
I heard it on Rush. That woman is my new hero! The rally cry heard around the world!
I WANT MY COUNTRY BACK!!
WE WANT OUR COUNTRY BACK!!
“I don’t believe in any conspiracy theories. I just want to see Obama’s birth certificate. John McCain produced his own within 24 hours of being asked. Why won’t Obama? He could shut this whole issue down in one second if he produced his birth certificate.”
Uh, that’s WHY he WON’T show it! If he can make the right-wing look like “kooks” for believing he’s not a natural born citizen, even though he’s shared his COLB which “proves” he was born in Hawaii to the masses, it helps him politically. He marginalizes his opposition. He was born in Honolulu but I dont think he’ll ever prove it. it helps him to have this ‘out there’.
The leftists are using this scene as proof that the Republican base has gone off the deep end. Just like they used the polling data last year that 20% of voters believed Obama was muslim. Hmmm, before he went to Turkey to say USA wasnt a Christian, appeared to bow to the Saudi king, and grovelled and pandered in Cairo.
I wonder if he’s partly doing this bat-sh*t-crazy stuff just to make the right go nuts. I dont for a second think he’s a muslim, secret partial or otherwise. he’s a leftist and there’s a big difference.
Rush touched very gingerly on this issue a few times in the past few weeks with his jokes about God and Obama not having birth certificates. But this is the first time I’ve heard of his raising the issue in a more serious way.
I have though for some time that he COULD have raised the issue in a non-confrontational way by saying that there were numerous lawsuits, or that others were concerned. Not that Rush was suspicious, but that others were. But up to this moment he refrained from doing that.
So this strikes me as a significant moment. Rush wouldn’t have done this without careful thought. Because there’s always some version of the Fairness Doctrine hanging over his head. Or maybe an income tax audit, which was one of clinton’s favorite punishments for anyone who questioned him.
And why is he sending teams of lawyers all over the country at a cost of tens of thousands of dollars to fight the lawsuits? No economist, he. A $12 copy would have ended all the problems -- unless there's something to hide.

“Lets get Larry Klayman back! He sued the Clintons every five minutes and raised hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions of dollars.”
FWIW I got a fundraising mailer from Judicial Watch this week. I didnt check if they were using the birth cert stuff to raise money. I just threw it out.
Larry Klayman WON for the Association of Physicians and Surgeons who SUED by name hillary for her horrific health care debacle because she ILLEGALLY closed all sessions of her 700 plus committee (those who stood to get FILTHY RICH WITH HER REWARDS FOR THEIR WORK!).
They were fined over 200,000 and all court costs thanks to DC Judge Royce C. Lamberth...who very kindly sent me a copy of the judgement!
It’s obvious that Rush is furious, as we all are,
at what 0 is doing to our beloved country.
He, however, also has a loyal audience of est. 20
million, and this mention wasn’t the first of the
birth certificate .. nor even the first of today’s
show.
I kinda doubt it will be the last.
I think 0 has a bullseye on his back, and Rush
is cocked and ready to do some serious damage.
Lord knows he has the resources.
Go Rush!!!
I haven’t yet figured out why Rush keeps barely touching on the birth certificate issue, then backs off ...
He’s such a tease when it comes to this.
Not only that, but the issue can further splinter the GOP. As this scene proves.
Sniff, sniff at post #7.

That may be the case, but I think it’s beginning to backfire on Obama in that it makes him appear arrogant and tyrannical.
Since so many ordinary Americans have to present their birth certificate in order to get a driver’s license, a passport or other documents, I have to think ordinary people are beginning to wonder why it is okay for someone to become president and refuse to reveal his birth certificate.
This afternoon on American Family Radio, Dr. Orly Taitz spoke about O’s ineligibility for president because he is not a “natural born citizen”. Under the U.S. Constitution, one of the requirements is for BOTH parents to be U.S. citizens. O’s dad was a British/Kenyan Colony Citizen.
