W.H.: 'Birthers' aren't 'rational'
Politico ^ | 1/24/2011 | MATT NEGRIN & MJ LEE

Posted on 01/24/2011 12:39:59 PM PST by mojito

Here’s what you need to know from Monday’s (1/24/2011)White House briefing with press secretary Robert Gibbs:

-- Gibbs hinted that President Obama will talk about gun rights in his State of the Union address....

-- Gibbs snuck a jab at the so-called birthers who don’t believe Obama was born in Hawaii. “I think rational people have long ago, many when they first heard and saw the president, come to the conclusion of his citizenship,” he said.

This is a trap folks. A ropa-dope.

If so, when is the trap sprung? Do you expect him to come out with the long form? No he won't. In no way does this issue help Obama.

If Obama had a long form, he would welcome an NBC documentary requirement on State Presidential ballots in 2012. They fight it tooth and nail.

I’m not saying he’s legit. I have my doubts, but for the sake of argument, assume he has a long form BC, Strategically he would be smart to wait until one of the states passes a law requiring proof of eligibility. Then he can make a big issue about conspiracy theorist. “All conservative are crazy birthers. How can you even think of electing a conservative”, (Palin etc.)

I would like just one person to ask “ if this were George Bush, and he wouldn’t show his bc, would you demand it” That’s what Cantor should have said to Gregory.

Yep, we came to the conclusion that he was born in Kenya.

I guess Gibbels is saying we all should profile 0bama. Just look at him and make a snap judgment.

Yep, he's a furener.

“All he’s gotta do is release it”
He can’t. Neil Abercombie, new Govenor of Hawaii, has admitted to his close friend Mike Evans, a reporter, that there are no records of Obama’s birth in Hawaii.

“Is Barry’s friend Governor Abercrombie (D) of Hawaii irrational?”

Yes, and he’s got egg on his face to show for it.

"The issue is not his citizenship."

Oh, but for some birthers it is ... he is often referred to as an illegal alien on birther threads in this forum. There are various factions in birther world.

Driver’s License? Try I can’t register my 8th grader for rec league baseball, without a ‘raised seal’ copy of his PA Birth Certificate.

You'll love this. Obama voted YES for a bill in 2005 that requires states to verify the validity of birth certificates with the issuing agency whenever you apply for a drivers license or ID card. The health department would not be able to tell the DMV it's against the law to disclose YOUR information. Yet in Hawaii, this is what the attorney general is saying about Obama's records. Ironic, eh? Even worse is that the state of Hawaii does have LEGAL ways they can disclose Barry's information. They just don't want to admit it.

Name calling it the only card they carry at the WH. They produce no evidence of anything the claim, and when you call them on it, they call you a derogatory name... and then they claim the “civility” high road? Here’s a name for them... HUBRIS and BS... they are full of it. How’s that for rationality...

It's not very rational to think you can simply look at someone or listen to them speak as Barry's Gibbs suggested to determine his or her citizenship. Plus, Gibbs is basically calling Obama's own wife irrational ... she's the one who said Kenya is his home country.

Gibbs is absolootly right. I personally have been driven nuts by the fact that our sitting POTUS is not a Natural Born Citizen.

It's also driving me nuts that a commie from Mombasa claims to be channeling Ronald Reagan. It's also driving me nuts that somewhere around half of my fellow citizens cannot recognize a jive-ass con-man, 'community activist,' disbarred lawyer from Chicago when they see one.
