Of course, I can appreciate the complexity of the disorder, while realizing that the only effective treatment is to have them put down like rabid dogs.
Oh well.

During an interview on the KQRS morning radio show on January 20, Mike Evans, a long-time friend of Hawaii governor Neil Abercrombie, shared a conversation he had with the governor the day prior. The reader is advised to judge for himself the credibility of Evans' account, but he sounds convincing.
Evans, Honolulu born and now a Hollywood-based celebrity journalist, claimed that Abercrombie had promised him that he when he became governor, he planned to find absolute proof that Obama was born in Hawaii.
When Evans spoke to Abercrombie on January 19, Abercrombie reportedly told him that he searched the relevant Hawaii hospitals using his powers as governor, and concluded, according to Evans, "There is no Barack Obama birth certificate in Hawaii, absolutely no proof at all that Obama was born in Hawaii." After Abercrombie made such a fuss about finding the birth certificate, Evans concluded of his friend that he has "got some egg in the face."
Curiously too, when Evans asked Abercrombie when he first encountered the young Barack Obama, Abercrombie reportedly said, "I remember him playing in a T-Ball league," when he was roughly five or six years old.
The reader may recall that Abercrombie had told the Los Angeles Times just before Christmas, "Maybe I'm the only one in the country that could look you right in the eye right now and tell you, ‘I was here when that baby was born.'"
A few days later, Abercrombie clarified to Mark Niesse of the Associated Press that he didn't exactly see Obama's parents with their newborn son at the hospital, but that he "remembers seeing Obama as a child with his parents at social events." Of course, Obama Sr. had left for Harvard four years before young Barack was T-Ball eligible.
In the Obama rabbit hole, things do seem to get progressively curiouser and curiouser.
===========================================
I played T ball in 1967, but that was in Minnesota.
First, he would need to be compelled by Congress and possibly the SC. Do you really think that is going to happen? After that, it would fall on the Executive Branch to enforce it.” __________________________________________
I think you are probably right on the possible institutional hurdles, but “illigitimate” and “unConstitutional” are still powerful words. Obama bears the burden of proof to answer a ligitimate and constitutional question. In the absence of proof, he will eventually be compelled to withdraw his candidacy for 2012, or, in the absence of institutional and enforcement action, he will be declared ineligible by enough states to cause his withdrawal. Also, the prospect of America being ruled by a “foreign agent” of sorts, in defiance of the Constitution, may be found to be a bridge too far for the Independents, who will decide the election.
Only if he's forced to do it. I think some of the states are on the right track by insisting a birth certificate must be submitted to be on the ballot.
What I am saying is we’re in a limbo position. It’s my feeling the WH would like it to remain that way. True, there is no concrete evidence Obama was born in Hawaii. Also, there is also no verifiable proof he wasn’t. While the burden should be on him to hold the office, the mechanism to force the issue doesn’t exist (at the present). I expect that will change.
Several people on FR remember T Ball during that time. It was more than a decade ahead of it coming to our community.
Of course, I can appreciate the complexity of the disorder, while realizing that the only effective treatment is to have them put down like rabid dogs.
Oh well.
Lots of guys are in prison, and lots of guys are free because a cellmate tells a court “he told me”.

That’s because there are so many exceptions to the hearsay rule. A “declaration against interest” (such as a statement that exposes oneself to criminal or civil liability) is one of the many exceptions.
Yo, Abie, this is your brain and this is your brain on drugs.

Individual states control who gets on their ballots, so states can make this into an issue. I would expect a court challenge if they do, though.
I, __________, do solemnly swear that I will administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me as [office of the Judge] under the Constitution and laws of the United States. So help me God.But clearly something is lacking. What is that?
Courage
Third times a charm.
It's a constitutional requirement so what's there to debate? The decision is simple, put up the bill already.
I can’t understand why the STATE legislatures are being so cowardly about it.
Fauxbama’s father was not a US Citizen, as such, it is impossible for Fauxbama to EVER be a “NATRUAL BORN CITIZEN” by the definition of the term.
A BC would prove he was a native born citizen, but that is all. A natural born citizen is a citizen who is born to parents, particular a father who is a citizen of the country. Fauxbama’s birth father does not meet this criteria, as such he can never ever be a natural born citizen.
It is amazing how dumbed down the US population has been made to where they cannot or will not understand this simple principle.
I am no Constitutional expert, but it seems to me he could make an argument against the disclosure on 4th and 5th Amendment rights. I don't feel the request would be an unreasonable search or siezure, but I won't put it past the Left to claim it. Under Hawaiian law, only he can authorize the release, which puts him in the position of potentially incriminating himself. It's a political tar pit making La Brea seem like a puddle.
Lack of courage, indeed.
