Ariz Rep Trent Franks: 34,000 years to pay off indebtedness trillions wrought by Obama
8/23/09

Posted on 08/23/2009 6:54:27 PM PDT by Liz

US Rep. Trent Franks, R-Arizona, held a townhall meeting in Kingman, Arizona. Some 950 people attended the boisterous event in a local church. Franks said it would take 34,000 years to pay off the indebtedness incurred by the Obama administration.

He said that Obama's eligibility was one of the hottest topics that included concerns about national defense, stimulus spending, health-care bills and the "cash-for-clunkers" program.

Franks is considering a lawsuit to establish Barack Obama's eligibility for the presidency. Franks said there is conflicting evidence on the question of Obama's status as a "natural born citizen."

His allusion to the possibility of a lawsuit forcing release of Obama's original, long-form birth certificate is as far as any member of Congress has gone on this issue. SOURCE: WorldNetDaily (FR Posted by RobinMasters)

Why are these Obama documents off-limits to Americans?

1. Certified copy of original birth certificate

2. Columbia University transcripts 3. Columbia thesis paper

4. Campaign donor analysis requested by 7 major watchdog groups

5. Harvard University transcripts

6. Illinois State Senate records

7. Illinois State Senate schedule

8. Law practice client list and billing records/summary

9. Locations and names of all half-siblings and step-mothers

10. Medical records (only the one page summary released so far)

11. Occidental College Transcripts

12. Parent’s marriage Certificate

13. Record of baptism

14. Selective Service registration records

15. Schedules for trips outside of the United States before 2007

16. Scholarly articles

17. Access to his grandmother (now passed away)

18. List of all campaign workers that are lobbyists

19. Punahou grade school records

How many people has Obama neutralized to stay in power? He went to Pepperdine and Columbia as well as Harvard law school. None of his classmates have surfaced. No frat brothers? No law school friends? What about high school and elementary school friends. Could they all have been neutralized?

It's about time. Too bad ALL Republicans didn't stand up as soon as it was known there was a problem. Who knows, perhaps the country wouldn't be is the mess it is in today had they done the right thing in the first place.

TAKE HEED OBAMATONS, THE TIDE IS TURNING. A TIDAL WAVE IS SWEEPING DEMS FROM OFFICE

A Delaware State Senate seat——reliably Democrat for forty years in a heavily Dem district-——was just won by a Republican by an unbelievable thirty (yep, that’s thirty) percentage points.

The gold standard was no better, and is part of what caused the depression in the 30's.

But, if you think gold is so great, buy some. I'm sure Obama will appreciate it when they come confiscate it again, like they did in the 30's.

Don't worry, we'll just inflate away the debt. At least that's Ben's plan....

Should work out just great

Then you take deep bow to your Chinese Masters.
At the current rate of borrowing, China will own more than half of United States in 25 years.

Its not that simple.....to inflate debt away. If it was Argentina would be #1 super power today. And Germany tried the same thing before Hitler and look what happened to them. Zimbabwe is not the world's #1 economy inspite of #1 rank in inflation.

I don't know of any nation who prospered with hyper-inflation. Do you?

But, they'll have to own it here. They can't take America back to China, can they. Lots of America is owned by foreigners already.

We've owned a lot of real estate on six continents for 60 years. It was part of what made us a player.

China can do the same thing.

0bama may be the UnFDR. He may single handily unravel the coalition put together by FDR that kept the Democrats the dominant political party in the U.S. in the second half of the twentieth Century.
