The Birther Plan To Block Obama's Reelection

The birthers have a plan to end Barack Obama's presidency—and in Arizona, they're making progress.

Pretty scary list, eh? As well put upthread - this guy is a black box. It ain’t just the birth certificate issue!! He’s been sprung upon us as an absolute fictional character. It sometimes scares me to think about what malign forces could be behind his rise to power.

[ponygirl]

even if they voted a dog to be president.

My dog would make a great president. She poops only where she's supposed to, she never bites the hand that feeds her, and most importantly, she always guards the perimeter.

I don’t think he is under stress at all, as he knows Harry Reid is there to protect him from any problem that might arise. People in NV (and CO too) proved their admiration for Obama.

“....lead to not only his but Pelosi’s, Reids’s, and others trials and convictions for the biggest fraud ever perpetrated in this country’s history.”

.
Some of the guilty ones should come forward and fess up now hoping for leniency while throwing 0 under the bus.

Certificate of live birth (short form) – alleged forgery released

---

No, no “paper COLB” has ever been given to anyone to hold in their hands ... only an online scan, 4 different versions, “released” ;

the first with no folds although all are folded when mailed.

This whole thing drives me crazy. His father wasn’t a US citizen so he’s illegally in office now!

[The Comedian]

Corn and Matthews. Two kernels on the same cob.

And we know where that cob has been.

Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

[240B]

Yep. Plain and simple.

They just don’t care. The ‘system’ just doesn’t care.

[opentalk]

The guy is a black-box. Absolutely nothing is known about him.

As the Middle East heats up - we don't know where his alliances are. If he has any connections to the Muslim Brotherhood or where all the Internet campaign funding came from.

Next thing I expect to rad is that the Gov of Hawaii and Chris Mathews are either closet-birthers or the “tools” of birthers.

Why should finding a long form birth certificate be so difficult.

I guess that after they tried to smear McCain with not be qualified under the US Constitution, the Dems feel that the question of natural born citizenship is now just a historically irrelevant issue.

[econjack]

...once the electoral college had its say, that was it, even if they voted a dog to be president.

...what he does will be accepted as legitimate, unless he is impeached and removed by congress.

I doubt that this is the correct interpretation. Also, my question isn't really his removal from office, but rather what happens to the bills and Executive Orders he signed while in office. It seems clear to me that those would be null and void since they were not signed by a citizen of the US.

Mr. Corn had better be careful, or someone will start to refer to him as a “birther” -

He probably is. Corn was involved with VIPS in creating myth that Plame was a superspy outed by Dick Cheney via Robert Novak to get revenge on Joe "Niger-is-too-Secure-to-Sell-Illicit-Uranium" Wilson, former Ambassador to Gabon, for his NY Times op ed about what Bush did not say in his SOTU speech. For that matter, Chris Matthews was, too. For all their fury and smoke, they succeeded in screwing Scooter Libby, not Cheney, but they probably made bucks from people who hate Cheney in the process because those people desperately wanted to prove Cheney was evil, and would not listen to anything that indicated otherwise, but eagerly lapped up all the stuff they were fed against Cheney without a moment's hesitation.

VIPS guys like Pat Lang were promoting the birther story from the get go.

“...the SCOTUS has quietly made it clear that they think Obama is illegitimate...”

Very quietly, Id say. I must have missed it. Clue me in.

“...they can prevent him from running for reelection...”

How is that?

[Dick Bachert]

I read somewhere that Corn’s family name was shortened from Cornho... Oh, never mind.

Barry is trying for a two-fer. 1. It is possible to commit the perfect crime. 2. Socialism can be made to work.

[opentalk]

3. Use constitutional crisis to your advantage, when optimal.

“But what if a candidate does not have a long-form version of his or her birth certificate, and the state where he or she was born could not locate a copy—say, it was lost in a fire, or simply misfiled?”

Hello....?? The short form is a copy of the long form ( "prima facie evidence" ). The long form is the source document for the short form.

So where did they get the info that appears on Obama's short form BC, Mr. Corn...?

[mcshot]

I hope he isn’t even present in our Country by then.

[mckinleysghost]

I know this has probably been discussed, but what infuriates me is the complicit deceitfulness of those around Barry.... he didn’t hide all the dirt without a ton of help...I would love to have been a fly on the wall for that round table discussion...”who’s gonna question your background....”
