“I can’t spend all of my time with my birth certificate plastered on my forehead,” quipped Obama, who took a deep breath to gather his thoughts when asked if the poll reflected his inability to communicate with voters.
“The facts are the facts. We went through some of this during the campaign — there is a mechanism, a network of misinformation that in a new media era can get churned out there constantly,” said a visibly annoyed Obama, referring to “birthers,” who have waged a guerrilla campaign questioning either the existence or the validity of his Hawaiian birth certificate.

Posting a response to this post so I can more easily locate it later.
Thanks for sharing all the info.
Yes. People are starting to look at all the smoke and see some fire. People are starting to be interested in Larry whats-his-name’s stories about Barack, because that crazy story now seems to fit. People are looking at his rise to power, and all the dirty sneaky tricks it took (and of course one big teleprompter).
I have no idea why he wants his BC hidden. I actually think he was born in the USA. However, I suspect that he traveled on a foreign passport over the age of 18, and possibly entered one of his colleges as a foreign student. That would mean that he had to CHECK THE BOX MARKED “NOT AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.” That’s a little damaging, to say the least.
My theory. The progressives have opted to characterize anyone who questions Zero's qualifications for office as a racist for even raising the issue. The likes of O'Reilly, Hannity, and Coulter would rather see the Constitution defiled and our country run into the ground rather than be called racists over a topic that has nothing to do with race.
In short, these folks are either incompetent boobs or corrupt fair-weather conservatives -- which it is, I don't know, but neither one is acceptable.
He's had some down time to think...and what's one of the first thing to come out of his mouth? A comment regarding his BC. QUILTY conscience?
When are the next rounds of court cases coming up? IIRC a couple of weeks...IS he trying to lay some ground work for them?
Add: If you ask question any of these, you are a “birther”?
We should start a fund and buy advertisement in the larger papers with this material in it.
Then the MSM would have something to report.
Don’t forget “Boot on the neck”...
Even odder is why someone who has nothing to hide would spend over a million dollars to hide it.
He’s mad as hell and he’s not going to take it anymore.
What a juvenile!
“What a juvenile!”
He DOES seem kinda wee-wee’d up over this, doesn’t he?
You are to be commended for all your work on this, but this observation at your blog I believe explains why Obama hoped people wouldn’t dig too deeply into this:
“Obama has “failed to qualify” and the only person the 20th Amendment allows to “act as President” is Joe Biden, until a President qualifies.”
Joe Biden was supposed to be his ace-in-the-hole. The problem is he has governed SO miserably that people have begun to realize that even a clown like Joe Biden likely could do a better job.
“Didn’t mean to hijack the thread but just wondered about Emanuel. :O
I’ve seen a growing number of speculations that he’ll be headed out soon. His advice on health care reform—to seek a compromise with Republicans rather than “go for broke”—was thoroughly rejected. All the adverse consequences he likely forecast are now coming to pass. I think he’s grown very embarrassed to be associated with such clowns.
I don’t share his political views, but he’s a smart, savvy and talented political operative. To see how badly the administration has bungled both on-going policy and unforeseen events such as the oil spill probably has him tossing and turning every night. The sooner he gets out, the more viable he is to become Chicago’s next mayor and/or eventually Speaker of the House. Otherwise, he may sink with the ship since even if he wasn’t directly responsible for all the disasters, people can reasonably inquire why he didn’t leave once he had paid his dues.
The average term-of-service for a White House Chief of Staff is a little under 2.5 years, so he can easily leave with grace and dignity. My guess they will announce his departure right after Nov. 2.
“concealment which is not only a violation of Hawaii law but in this context a federal crime, violating 18 USC 1001 - the Federal General False Statement Act.”
I’m no lawyer, but it would surprise me greatly if a federal statute governed the behavior of a state official while in office. This would appear to pose rather severe separation-of-powers questions. After all, if the federal can penalize (and perhaps imprison?) a state official for how they conduct their duties, what’s to prevent them from passing a law to heavily fine or imprison any governor who refuses to remit 50% of all state tax collections to Uncle Sam?
on his forehead we would see it.
No obama it is hidden, sealed you made sure of that just like you covered up your schools records etc.
simple question , why do you not just show it?
“Birther control pills” LOL
maybe he is thinking about AZ and their law of having to show it before running
2011 he has to confirm he is running in 2012.
The BC needs to come out of the closet in 2011. It’s pissing him off because he cant run if it comes out.
I expect him to announce in late 2011 that America was just not ready for a Black man to be president, and he declines to run and blames every problem there is on white Americans and resigns.
I'd be happy if there was just an indentation that said "Louisville..."
