"For CNN, or MSNBC, or you, Geraldo - the liberal on Fox - bringing this out as if it's an issue, you know, it's just a few cranks out there. It's like when the networks bring on the three remaining Klanners in America."

This one falls into the category of Annie being 180 degrees wrong.
Kinda like her contention Mitt is a conservative.
Disappointing
I would like to ask Ann what she knows about the issue.
Why would Obama spend a million to fight producing an $18 birth certificate.
His mother was not 18 when he was born, and his father was not a US citizen.
How could he attend an Indonesian school FOR CITIZENS ONLY
Where is any of his school or college records (besides his birth certificate)
Etc. Etc.
It will be the first time that Kos and Media Matters quote her in a ‘positive’ light. Just watch.
As I said in the other thread, I love Ann, but I think she’s wrong.
I agree with her that if the Clintons could have used it they would have, but while this is persuasive its not definitive. The Clintons’ ability to do opposition research is legendary but that isn’t the gold standard (although its probably almost the gold standard).
If Ann thinks I’m a crank, I still want to see the original birth certificate, and I’d still like to know what citizenship O claimed when he was in college. Its not too much to ask. We keep asking and all we get are ad hominems in response. That more than anything confirms to me at least that they are hiding something. What they are hiding may not be what I think they are hiding, but that they are hiding something is only obvious. So what is it? Lets see the document.
I agree with Huck.
If there was anything that Zero was hiding about his birth certificate the Clintonistas would have uncovered it during the primaries.
I read this as “pick your battles” from Ann. She knows the law and constitution, including Obama’s legal options which I suspect would enable him to bury or ignore this issue until it becomes moot, i.e. his term(s) expire.
I think Obama has something to hide or he would just show the proof and kill this whole issue. But it may be tough to prove it or do anything about it.
Correct. Occam’s Razor.
Bu-bye, Ann. There’s a shark waiting for you to jump.
If your reasoning is correct, then why doesn’t Obama just cough up the document? It’d all be over with.
I think it’s very probable that Obama was born in Honolulu. Whether the Founding Fathers would have considered someone like him a “natural born citizen” given all of the circumstances is debatable, but for over 100 years simply being born in the US has been enough (with a few exceptions like children of diplomats). It is puzzling that Obama has chosen to fight this instead of just producing the birth certificate, but maybe there is something else embarrassing that he doesn’t want revealed.
Maybe not. And as to his “education”, why no transcript? We know Bush got better grades than Kerry, we know Bill Clinton’s academic record, we know Carter’s grades and Military records in the Rickover Navy days, we know McCain was bottom of the class. Good, bad and ugly, we know it all,,,,all except for Obama the idiot.
If he had good grades, they woulda been shoved right in our face. Same with birth certificate. He’s lying to us about something, THATS for sure. Maybe who his father is, maybe he had Mohammed as an extra middle name, whatever, but he is clearly hiding something. Same with his academic record.
You could be right. But to totally dismiss these folks isn’t right either. More and more conservatives are coming out in favor
It is fun to rattle the Liberals cages on this stuff but I am spending my time on defeating the Socialist-in-Chief's agenda.
It is probably no better than a net neutral for us as the LMSM is using it to paint us as nutcases.
Byrd and who are the other two?
