McCain Primary Challenger Hayworth: Obama 'Should Come Forward' With His Birth Certificate (VIDEO)
TPM ^ | 1/16/10 | Eric Kleefeld

Posted on 01/26/2010 9:21:55 PM PST by pissant

Former Rep. J.D. Hayworth (R-AZ), who is challenging Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) in the Republican primary this year, appeared on Hardball this evening, and stood by his previous statements in favor of the birther movement.

Matthews asked Hayworth: "Are you as far right as the birthers?" Are you one of those who believes that the president should have to prove that he's a citizen of the United States, and not an illegal immigrant? Are you that far right?"

"Well, gosh, we all had to bring our birth certificate's to show we were who we said we were, and we were the age we said we were, to play football in youth sports," Hayworth responded matter of factly. "Shouldn't we know exactly that anyone who wants to run for public office is a natural born citizen of the United States, and is who they say they are?"

Matthews referred back to some of Hayworth's past statements. "I'm reading your letter that says the president should go back and get his birth certificate from the governor of Hawaii," said Matthews, who then added: "I'm just asking, do you stand by this letter?"

"Yeah, sure," Hayworth responded.

"Should the governor of Hawaii produce evidence that the president is one of us, an American?" Matthews asked. "Do you think that's a worthy pastime for the governor of Hawaii right now?"

"No, I -- look. I'm just saying the president should come forward with the information, that's all," said Hayworth. "Why should we depend on the governor of Hawaii?"

And while we are at it, let’s determine if someone who was born a both a foreign national and a U.S. citizen(supposedly) can be considered a “Natural Born Citizen”

Brilliant reply. You must be on your second six-pack already.

Hayworth let Matthews get away with a few things. Matthews is using the recently leaked playbook of Democrats to challenge GOP candidates on the issue, he should have called him out of that. Matthews asked him if he was so far right that he agreed with "birthers". Hayworth should have reminded him that Hillary supporters brought the issue up in the Democrat primary. Hayworth should have corrected him to say that Obama is a US citizen, that's not in doubt. Hayworth also should have asked Matthews what government agency or law is responsibility for verifying natural born status and what possible reason could there be to NOT release the original long birth certificate which doesn't require the Governor of Hawaii to do anything.

For the sake of argument, Hayworth could assume that Obama is a natural born US citizen. Why not release the birth certificate then? Are Presidential historians going to be blocked from his records, esp something as benign as an original birth certificate? How much money has been spent to block its release when $10 would suffice? Hayworth should have put these questions to Matthews.

BTW, my family knows the Governor, my sister worked for the previous Governor and was born in Hawaii. I called and got the Department of Vital Records to admit that they can and do issue long form birth certificates. In my case, I said it was for genealogy reasons. The law allows for citizens to obtain a certified copy of any or all of the contents of a birth record.

JD, dammmit, I know your at least a lurker. Get a hold of me via freepmail, ASAP. Thanks

Let's entertain the idea that he does look in here. Do you think after he, or an aide, browsed thru your post history that he would actually want to have any contact with you?

On the plus side, at least you wouldn't have to shy away from asking Hayworth about the birth cert., as you do with Hunter.

"What boils my blood is that NEITHER of them raise his Kenyan/UK citizen father !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

Me too. And that Barry, not matter where he was born, was born a British subject via his father.

"My theory as to why Obama and the Democratic Party are paying thousands of dollars to lawyers to have the lawyers hide a $10 Hawaii long form birth certificate from us is this: Once a court allows us to see Obama's long form Hawaii birth certificate, we will see that there is no doctor name, no doctor signature, and no hospital name. We will also see NO parent signature, although the Hawaii long form birth certificate way back in 1961 had a space for such at least one parent's signature. "

My theory is that as well, and done via the 1957 law that was in place in 1961 that allowed foreign born baby's to be eligible to apply for a HI birth certificate.

That would take some rather tortured logic IMO. 0baMao does not like torture so, no, he cannot be a Natural Born Citizen if his father was a British subject. That would be waterboarding the truth.

"We know that his mother was not legally married to his father, who was married to another woman at the time (whether or not there was any ceremony) even Michelle admitted Barack's mom was an "unwed young mom." "

A divorce court in 1964 Hawaii thinks they were legally married. Untill discovry proofs the court record incorrect, the state of HI thought it was a legal marriage.

Hey, pissant, maybe you inspired JD with all your birther posts.

Hayworth is gong to set McCain off with this Obama COLB issue. McCain refused to raise it as he should of in the presidential campaign, showing all that Obama's acendency is McCain's fault.

Brilliant!!!!!!!

Mark Levin is 100% behind JD, and he issued a warning to McCain: " Send your thugs after me like you did JD, and I guarantee you I will hurt you , big time. I am prepared to sink my litigious teeth so far into you McCain thugs that you will never be rid of me. I will bleed you of millions of dollars?" Mark actually said that. It sent a chill down my spine. A battle royal for the heart of the Republican Party has begun Sarah Palin may be on the wrong side.We will have to see. Apparently Mcain sits o the FDC and used his back room influence to force JD's program off the air , because he was using air time to campaign against McCain.JD has been turned loose to run against McCain as a result. The conservative broadcast world and blogosphere world now detests McCain and his constant battle against free speech. JD has a huge opportunity tio defeat and unseat the one man who stands i n the way of conservatives taking the Republican party back. We need to defeat him heavily. I see many McCain operatives now here on FR trying to spin McCain's unpopularity. Eff them every one. We are coming for yah Juan!

Looks like Chris Matthews is very tired in that interview and it seems he is not convinced of his argument, he does look empty, doesn't he ?
Kind of like a salesman who does not believe in his product anymore that he is trying to sell.
perhaps ?
soon ?
Chris Matthews will start to even question Obama's eligibility ?
hey, God can and does move in mysterious ways.

I pray, that the Lord God of Israel will open up Chris Matthews eyes and see the light and truth.
