Obsession with Obama's birth certificate is a distraction from opposing his agenda.

The “magic bullet” characterization nails it.

So why are you posting this instead of being out opposing his agenda?

It’s not a fantasy. Why doesn’t Chairman Zero show us the BC and just make us look bad, eh faux conservatives??

Why did he issue an executive order his first day in office sealing all his records, college, birth, everything! You brown nose clowns over there aren’t curious about any of this?

I read this and that the birth was listed in two newspapers
seems to end the argument. I agree anything other then
exposing this WH’s agenda and trying to defeat it is a
waste of time.

answer all these questions and show it then .

close down the place in Kenya as they are charging tourists to see bozo’s birth place in Kenya.
Ask why two of his family say they saw him born in Kenya

nah the media are pathetic, they look at a piece of paper on a website instead of getting a flight to Kenya and asking his own family and then ask bozo

WHY DON’T YOU SHOW IT INSTEAD OF FIGHTING NOT TO SHOW IT IN COURT

No, it is not a distraction, it is something that the cult of personality seems to have swept into the trash bin ... It is called the LAW.

This is just another reason why I no longer subscribe to the National Review.

I agree. There's plenty else to contest him on and I think we need to choose our battles wisely. Right now he's back on his heels and a frontal attack on his ideology and policies is the better way to direct our energy. Do I think it's suspicious that he spend a large amount of $ keeping it from being released? Yes, but I think it may be not because of birthplace, but rather parentage.

I think this makes total sense.

Now if someone can just explain to me why Obama has spent close to $1mm to fight access to his birth documents, I might even agree with the author.

I’m not saying I think Obama was born in Kenya. I really don’t know one way or the other.

But it defies reason that a guy would spend $1mm on litigating this issue unless he had something to hide.

I think as citizens we have a right to know what that is.

"...Joe Miller of Factcheck.org, who took the time to examine it... "

Wow, that's really nice of Joe to take the time out his busy day to have a look see, however there's about 100 million Americans who'd like to also take the time to examine it, so FAIL.

Isn't Factcheck.org a Soros shell anyway?

Mebbie Bambi WAS born here.
Whithout SEEING THE DAMN CERTIFICATE we will never know, WILL WE?
Am I supposed to take him ON FAITH?
Not hardly.
At the VERY LEAST, there is something on Bambi’s BC, or collich applications, or grant applications, or transcripts, or other stuff (ALL SEALED) Bambi does NOT want us to see.
I WON’T LET THIS GO AWAY—NEITHER SHOULD YOU!

It doesn't but you can believe what you like.

I actually don't care where he was born as he is not a "natural born citizen" since his father was Kenyan.

Given that fact, we are loath even to engage the fanciful notion that President Obama was born elsewhere, contrary to the information on his birth certificate, but we note for the record that his mother was a native of Kansas, whose residents have been citizens of the United States for a very long time, and whose children are citizens of the United States as well.

This is the part I don't get: if Barack's mom was a U.S. citizen, then he's a U.S. citizen. Doesn't matter if he was born on the Moon.

Bull.

Hawaii issued “birth certificates” to children not born in Hawaii. Known fact.

There is no way to know if Obama was born in Hawaii without the actual long form certificate which spells out in detail where he was born.

And what possible reason is there for Obama to prevent it from being released if it isn't hiding something?

Well the birth announcement lists an address his family never resided at.

The Lefforge family resided at 6085 Kalanianaole Highway, never anyone associated with Obama. The Lefforges are now passed.

“Orland Scott Lefforge was a Professor at UH at Manoa, Dept. of Speech, before becoming an assistant to Sen. Inouye in 1967. After that he wrote a paper about “In service Training as an Instrument of Change” (1971). He was also an administrator in the UH Community College office, and a member of the Osher Institute. He died July 4, 2007 at the age of 91. His wife/companion Thelma Jones Lefforge Young died June 12, 2008.”

“In 1961 the Dunhams lived on Kamehameha Avenue, while Obama Sr. lived on 11th Avenue. The Lefforge family, including their 3 children under the age of seven were residing at the luxury home listed on Obama’s newly found birth announcement — 6085 Kalanianaole Highway.”

Why is everything associated with oilybama so pretzeled?
