Call me a Birther, I carry the term with honor.
Thsoe who arent Birthers are sticking their heads in the ground and ignoring the Constitution. In fact they dont care whether Obma is legitimate or not. They have thier black President. Thats enough for them.
I am not a "Birther."
Let me tell you why I am not a "birther."
I believe that Ø is as much a natural born citizen as McLame is.
McLame was born outside of the US. However, for McLame, it's not an issue, as 8 U.S.C. §1401 says he is a natural born citizen. Unfortunately, the same section says that the Bamster is too, because of the citizenship and length of residency of his mother. Regardless if he was born in Honolulu or Mombasa.
That's my opinion and you can either agree with it or not. Doesn't matter to me one way or the other. But keep reading, please. That's not the reason why I posted this.
In fact they dont care whether Obma is legitimate or not.
First point: Spell check is included in Firefox. You ought to consider switching browsers.
Second point: it really doesn't matter whether you're right or I'm right here. The hard, cold reality is that the 111th Congress wouldn't care if he was born in Outer Mongolia as the Child of Chairman Mao and Winnie Madikizela-Mandela. Shoot, he could be an artificially generated alien life form and the 111th Congress wouldn't care.
Also, with the second point: it's not like the courts are trying to discern the truth either. How many court cases have been summarily dismissed now? Two? Three?
So it doesn't really matter in the big scheme of things.
So why did I post this apparently antagonistic response?
Because, regardless of which way the truth works out, Bam-Bam is hiding something.
IF he was born in Mombasa (or wherever), he is stuck in a lie that he could have easily dealt with long ago, but one that will now put a HUGE amount of egg on a whole lot of faces.
IF he was born in Honolulu, as asserted, there is NO reason for him not to have asked to have the microfilm of his "original" birth certificate released (the one with the footprints and OB signature on it). It would be easy to resolve the situation for 99.5% of all "birthers" (except the Alex Jones type of conspiracy nuts). And it would go away. Why spend over a million dollars to suppress the truth?
The only answer I can consider is that there is something on that "original" birth certificate that he doesn't want revealed to the world. Don't know what it is. But it has got to be significant, else he would have shut us all up.
So, although I'm not a "birther," I want those of you who ARE birthers to keep pressing on. (And you will likely hear me asking the "where's the Birth Certificate" question too) Not because I think it matters on a legal basis, but I think, on a political basis, it is going to be HUGE when it actually comes out!
