Ermey Says He’ll 'Square Away' Birthers
Military.com ^ | 8-21-2009 | Military.com|by Bryant Jordan

Troops challenging the legitimacy of President Barack Obama as commander-in-chief -- including at least one who is fighting deployment -- should take heed: Gunnery Sgt. Hartman wants to know your "major malfunction."

R. Lee Ermey, the Marine-turned-actor whose role as drill instructor Gunny Hartman in the late Stanley Kubrick's "Full Metal Jacket" has all but placed the Vietnam veteran in the pantheon of Marine heroes alongside "Chesty" Puller, Smedley Butler and Dan Daly, isn't buying anyone's political objector status.

"I haven't heard about those guys," Ermey told Military.com during an Aug. 21 interview. "If I do run across them though, trust me, I'll square them away."

From what I just read on another thread, Obama isn’t a legal President because his FATHER was a British Citizen. Blamo. No go historically. Chester Aurthur wasn’t legal either, but he successfully HID his birth Parentage.

It's much harder to hide things today. And I read the same thing you did. That's just one of many I've seen here on FR and elsewhere.

Ironic that he may have been born a British Subject when the Founders were pointedly trying to sever ties to the Crown.

I like the Gunney, but he’s in no position to ‘square away’ the Major.

All other Presidents have provided these types of personal documents...

No.

The Gunny respects the constitutuion whereas the O does not.

I'm pretty sure if the Gunny knew what we knew he'd be singing a different tune.

FYI:
#14 has been verified satisfactorily
I think Clinton's medical records were sealed (or not released to the public)

I’d still want to see the other things on your list.

So would I. At this point it's about all of the secrecy not just a secret BC.
It's weird, it's scary and it's unAmerican.

Since “Gunny's” title was bestowed AFTER he left the Corps he is also suspect.

Obama is a citizen. He just isn’t a natural born citizen. He’s a statutory citizen because he was born outside the country. Therefore he is not eligible to be president.

What kind of fruitcakes must be running military.com to use Ermey in this way? It's obvious that he didn't bring the matter up himself.

Obama is a citizen. He just isn’t a natural born citizen. He’s a statutory citizen because he was born outside the country. Therefore he is not eligible to be president.

Even if he was born on American soil he's admitted that he had dual citizenship (British or Kenyan and American) at birth.

What Kool-Aid?

There's no rational reason to believe BHO was born anywhere but Hawaii.

The the only real argument boils down to whether or not a person born in the US to an adult American mother and a resident alien father is indeed a natural born citizen.

Dunno 'bout AZ, but here in Florida, Obama's ACORN has been vacuuming the streets of all the riff-raff and depositing them at poll locations for years:

"In 2006, people were already bringing complaints against ACORN for violating campaign laws. In Florida, Manuel Iglesias accused ACORN of engaging in "A Coordinated Campaign With The Express Purpose of Defeating Repubican Candidates for Federal Office and Supporting Democrat Candidate for Federal Office." Legally, ACORN is not allowed to participate in partisan campaign activity, but a campaign plan written by an ACORN employee entitled "Floridians for All" is certainly partisan. The plan's claimed initiative was to "defeat George W. Bush and other Republicans by increasing Democrat turnout in a close election...and...catalyze the construction of permanent progressive political infrastructure that will help redirect Florida politics in a more progressive, Democratic direction." The plan continues along this vein, stating that ACORN's aim is to "increase voter turnout of working class, mainly Democrat voters without increasing opposition turnout." With this evidence, one would think that the FEC had more than enough information to want to investigate. Instead, the FEC dismissed the case "

Records, we don't need no stinking records

I strongly suspect that the guy who wrote this article is not a Marine.

I like the Gunny and have seen some of his shows and the movie. However, no Marine is gonna put him in the same class as Chesty.

Sorry, Gunny, but your middle of the road politics aren’t what we need right now.

Being a political moderate or apolitical may be great while in uniform following orders but not for civilians who must think and decide for themselves.

If we had any GOP politicians with the balls God gave a gerbil we might get somewhere.
