Birther leader: GOP is with me

Orly Taitz, the California attorney-dentist leading the charge of the so-called birthers movement, is boasting on her blog that shes made some high-profile friends on Facebook: Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, House Republican Whip Eric Cantor and GOP Reps. Mary Bono Mack and Cynthia Lummis.
I am in total disbelief and greatly honored, Taitz wrote on her blog today after Cantor appeared as one of her Facebook "friends." To me it means that the leadership of the Republican party understands the importance of the issues and legal cases I brought forward. I hope more congressmen and senators join and either become additional plaintiffs or bring to the House and Senate judicial committee hearings the issues of Obamas illegitimacy to presidency as well as suspected illegal activities by Obama and his supporters.
The birthers argue that President Barack Obama was not born in the United States and is therefore not eligible to serve as president. Obamas birth certificate and all credible evidence show that he was, in fact, born in Hawaii.
Republican National Committee press secretary Gail Gitcho said she has been deluged with calls about Steele's "friend" status with Taitz today a day when the RNC was trying to roll out its health care counter-agenda.
Asked whether Steeles friendship with Taitz constituted an unofficial endorsement of Taitzs views, Gitcho said: The chairman has thousands of Facebook friends obviously he is not going to agree with the agendas of all of them.
A Cantor spokesman also cautioned against making too much of the friendships.
It is a bipartisan practice and common sense that when a person signs up to be a friend or supporter on an elected officials social networking site, they are signaling support of the elected official, said Brad Dayspring, a spokesman for the Virginia Republican. It does not signal an endorsement of the views of any individual or group.
Lummis spokesman Ryan Taylor said that Lummis friended Taitz at the suggestion of one of her other Facebook friends. Taylor said Lummiss friend status does not represent an endorsement of Taitz views.
I think this is an issue that comes up from time to time in Wyoming, Taylor said. [Rep. Lummis] understands peoples concerns but I think she also believes that there may not be credible evidence to such. And people are happy to talk to her about it, and she is happy to talk to them.
Lummis was confronted by bithers back in April, during a town hall in Wyoming.
Im not questioning your concern, she told them at the time. I am questioning whether there is credible evidence.

Wow. For a story the SRM wouldn't touch a month ago, now they are in full battle mode, even producing stories about what Orly Taitz has on her blog. We are winning. Keep it up.

It could be some hacking going on. I doubt the head of the RNC has the balls to publicly support Taitz.

The libs are trying to tie Certfi-Gate to the Republican party!
Nice try but if that's the case, why did they wait so long?
Why didn't they protest before the primaries.
The Birther Movement is a result of the Republican Party doing nothing!
Now if Politico wants to increase its batting average maybe they should investigate the Democrat party and its coordinated attacks and filing of ethic charges against Gov. Palin.

Every member of the Supreme Court, every member of congress, every member of the Joint Chiefs, most members of the DOD, CIA, FBI, Secret Service and state run media, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, PBS, NPR, MSNBC, Fox and print news, knows that Barack Hussein Obama does NOT meet Article II Section I constitutional requirements for the office he holds. By his own biography, there is NO way he can pass the test. The hard evidence is so far beyond overwhelming, it is ridiculous.
(snip)
But not ONE member of Americas most powerful people will dare confront Obama and his anti-American cabal on the subject. The Constitution does NOT stand.
(snip)
Half of the people you expect to stop this insanity are quiet co-conspirators in the silent coup. The other half is paralyzed by fear, motivated only by political self-preservation.
(Snip)
Americans keep asking what they can do because they see that none of their leaders are doing anything to stop the demise of their beloved country. Its the right question, because those leaders are NOT going to stop this thing.

This is how it was in the beginning, how it has always been and how it will be.

A PRECIOUS FEW, BUT THEY EXIST
and the walls are indeed closing in on Obama and his evil cabal. IF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FAIL TO GET BEHIND THESE BRAVE FEW WHO ARE SEEKING PEACEFUL REDRESS, ALL THE PEACEFUL OPTIONS WILL EVAPORATE AS IF THEY NEVER EXISTED. WE WILL RETURN TO A PRE-1776 AMERICA OVERNIGHT..
Do YOU fear Obama?

She’s honored? More like delusional. Being “honored” with a friendship status on FB is like getting a Participant Award for Track & Field Day.

To: TommyDale
If it is a set up, then the American people are going to be very mad....AT OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATS for playing games with our constitution and rule of law for silly political theater. AOL had a weekend poll and 82% (or higher) of the American people want Obama to release his long form BC.
This will back fire big time on the democrats and Obama if they are playing games. It is obvious to anyone that still has brain matter between their ears that Obama is hiding major information about his past. He has never been vetted properly and has not released any of his records.

To: TommyDale
Even
the liberal LA Times on June 30, 2009 in an article dripping with contempt--conceded that the thing Obama's people posted online was "technically... not a birth certificate".
A
bill in the US congress with 10 backers currently -- calls for future presidential candidates to be required to show a birth certificate. The
library of congress has recently started including the Obama File in its historic collections of Internet materials related to the Presidential Transition during a Time of Crises.
The Obama File holds that Obama's birth certificate as presented online is bogus.
Now this story is starting to change. Some liberals in an open acknowledgement of Obama's problems are starting to call for a change in the constitution.
Liberal defenders of Obama in full retreat on Birth CertificateNow The
LA Times Wants To Amend the Constitution Rather Than Have Obama Show His Birth Certificate. (Translation: Yeah hes not a Natural Born Citizen As the Constitution Requires.)

Um...I don’t think this lawyer lady has any idea how little it means for her to be “friends” on Facebook with these people. They have staffers in their offices who just go through and approve every friend request that comes in; there is NO WAY to interpret that as some kind of support for an agenda or a point of view.

"Security Breach May Lead To Obama Natural Born Status
A series of 2008 security breaches at the US State Department may indicate that someone knows Barack Obamas true status as a natural born citizen - and is waiting for the right time to reveal it. The breaches, which occurred on January 9, February 21 and March 14 of 2008, were done by two low level contractors and another in a mid-level position with no management role.
... An investigation of the incidents revealed that all three major presidential candidates - Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and John McCain - had their passport files compromised.
... News of the security breaches prompted a statement from then-Senator Joseph Biden, who had not yet been chosen as Obamas running mate. Biden, who was chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, had oversight of the Foreign Service and the passport office.
I am deeply troubled that State Department contract employees sought access to Sen. Barack Obamas passport files, the statement from Biden read. Firing or disciplining those responsible is an important first step. But we need to understand why these employees had access to this information in the first place, why they sought the information, and why it took over two months for this matter to come to light. I urge the Secretary of State to promptly refer this matter to the State Department Inspector General for investigation.
... On April 5, 2008, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Passport Services Ann Barrett resigned from her post after a credit card scheme using US passport date was uncovered by the security probe. State Department Spokesman Tom Casey told The Washington Times that 24-year-old Lieutenant Quarles Harris Jr. told federal authorities he obtained passport information from a co-conspirator who works for the U.S. Department of State.
From The Washington Times report:
The investigation began after Metropolitan Police on March 25 pulled over Mr. Harris in Southeast on suspicion that the windows of his vehicle were tinted too darkly.
After searching Mr. Harris and his vehicle, police found marijuana and 21 credit cards that were not issued in his name or the name of a female passenger with him. Police also found eight printouts of State Department passport applications, and four of the names on the applications matched four of the credit cards.
Upon questioning by agents from the U.S. Secret Service, U.S. Postal Service and State Department, Mr. Harris admitted he obtained the passport information from a State Department employee, court documents say.
Mr. Harris also said the fraud ring submitted credit-card applications using the names and identifying information of the persons listed on the passport applications, and that a postal service employee then would intercept the cards before they were delivered to the appropriate residences.
Then, on April 17, 2008, Lt. Harris was found fatally shot dead slumped over the steering wheel of his car in front of the Judah House Praise Baptist Church in Northeast DC."
Key Witness in Presidential Passport Tampering Case Murdered in 2008, No Arrests
On April 8, 2008, Obama confessed to having taken a trip to Pakistan in 1981. Here is what Obama said - Jake Tapper was there:
"So when I speak about having lived in Indonesia for four years, having family that is impoverished in small villages in Africa --knowing the leaders is not important -- what I know is the people...I traveled to Pakistan when I was in college -- I knew what Sunni and Shia was [sic] before I joined the Senate Foreign Relations Committee."
... Much speculation has been made about what national passport Obama used when he traveled to Pakistan in 1981.
So Obama confessed to this trip two weeks after his passport was tampered with.
.... A key witness in a federal probe into passport information stolen from the State Department was fatally shot in front of a District church, the Metropolitan Police Department said yesterday. Lt. Quarles Harris Jr., 24, who had been cooperating with a federal investigators, was found late Thursday night slumped dead inside a car, in front of the Judah House Praise Baptist Church in Northeast, said Cmdr. Michael Anzallo, head of the department's Criminal Investigations Division.
Cmdr. Anzallo said a police officer was patrolling the neighborhood when gunshots were heard, then Lt. Harris was found dead inside the vehicle, which investigators would describe only as a blue car."
"Mysterious Dead Person Connected To 2008 Elections
The Washington Times reported April 5 that contractors for the State Department had improperly accessed passport information
for presidential candidates Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton, Barack Obama and John McCain, which resulted in a series of firings that reached into the agency's top ranks."

Ok the GOP isn't going to get much further with their current tactics on this...
they need to get creative and tricky...
I think they should sponsor a bill to place a plaque at the hospital where -10bama was born to commemorate the birthplace of the 44th President of the United States.
Of course they can only do this by releasing exactly which hospital he was born at ... which can only be obtained from his original long for birth certificate :)
I want to see what democrat has the guts to vote against a plaque being placed in honor of -10bama :) ROFL

Let me clarify what I think appears to be a setup — the GOP leadership. It appears to be a lame attempt to tie the Birth Certificate issue to the GOP.

It appears to be a lame attempt to tie the Birth Certificate issue to the GOP.It's not so lame. The Democrats and the media are setting the trap and I've just spent half the day arguing with people who just can't wait to jump into the trap.
To: pissant
IMO it ain’t the place of birth = it’s something else on the BC that would tell everyone something about BO that he is hiding.
Same story w/ college fin. aid apps, passport info, etc.
Who is this 0bama guy? What’s he hiding?
