The Davis-as-father scenario may not be conclusive enough to override the ruling on the field, but it would explain the Obama camp's fear of documentation, and it deserves, at the very least, further review in the booth.

This "summary" answers my questions. My biggest question is why hide the records, this might explain it. But why hide all the other records? (The Patriot's Flag - Eligibility & Credibility). The bottom line for me..."why has the press been allowed to continually ignore all of this?" I don't think Obama is our problem, he is what he is, the press is the villain in this story for "projecting" something else upon the "blank screen."

I’m with ya there.

There will always be liars and crooks. They’re not the problem. Any system that is going to survive has to be able to handle liars and crooks, to neuter their ability to hurt anybody else by it. We HAVE to have an honest media and honest law enforcement.

I believe that the threats of FCC license revocation if they reported on the issue was vital to what has happened. I think Obama’s lawyers had to scare the tar out of the CONSERVATIVE reporters/talk show hosts.

Initially the conservatives just ignored the issue - as many who tried to call in found out. Now that the questions are getting more pointed and there is more evidence of wrong-doing to cover for Obama, I think the Axelrod-Ailes meeting may have been to pressure the conservative talkers to actively ridicule people with questions. They have to convince conservative leadership that this issue is poison.

But I think the main people who are calling it poison are folks like Beck and O’Reilly, as well as their wannabes (like Red State) and the sites owned by Fox employees (such as Michelle Malkin’s Hot Air). The conservatives with independent voices - such as Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage, and (now) Jeff Kuhner - are not ridiculing and are instead increasingly willing to hear the case honestly.

I think Breitbart is afraid to spend his credibility on this, at least for now. And maybe we need him to stand back so he can keep doing what he is doing.

If we can survive Obama’s attempt to divide and conquer us and can get the facts into the open, it will be an interesting soul-searching time as media people of all stripes ask how we got to a point where one man could hold the entire “mainstream” AND conservative media hostage.
