Hawaii's Governor Manipulates Birthers
The American Thinker ^ | 02/06/2011 | Andrew Walden

Posted on 02/06/2011 1:12:17 AM PST by speciallybland

Hawaii's newly elected "DSA-er Democrat" Governor Neil "I am not a socialist" Abercrombie is the birthers' best friend -- and many commentators in Hawaii and across the nation are becoming increasingly annoyed by his antics.

In two recent interviews, with just a few anti-birthy words in December 24 and January 18 interviews magnified and distorted by the national and international media, Abercrombie has succeeded in raising birtherism from the dead. And both he and President Barack Obama are very pleased with the opportunity to shift political discussion away from the thumping Obama took in the November midterms.

This is just toying. He [Obama] knows that the birthers are a bunch of Looney Tune kook right-wingers, and he wants them illustrated as such. So he'll toy with them, sort of like Charlie Brown and Lucy and the football. ( Rush Limbaugh)( from the article)

Someone who would use this eligibility issue as a political joke pulls wings off flies just to see them squirm.

A decorated war veteran and respected officer of 18 years sits in prison because Obama would not release **COMMON** documents. Major Cook lost his security clearance and his job for the same reason.

Obama sent TAX PAID attorneys across the U.S. to prevent the release of documents that American serfs provide for Little League. Obama wasted the resources of these TAX PAID attorneys and our TAX PAID courts at a time when plots were being laid to BOMB Times Square and a Pittsburgh marathon, blow a passenger plane out of the sky over Detroit, and KILL our soldiers on their bases and recruitment centers.

It is EASY to prove one's natural born citizenship. For under a $100 and a nod of his head to his secretary all this could have been completely resolved.

If Obama considers this funny then I strongly suspect he pokes the eyes out of kittens for laugh.

“The word is that if the wrong people in that kingdom were to see that I visited that other country,”

Well, you are referring to the middle east. I have been only to Qatar.
I have not been in any KINGDOMS of Europe other then the UK, haha, but I have lived in Slovakia, Romania, Hungary, and Czech Republic, as well as traveling in Bulgaria and Serbia, and visit my brother in Paris, and other friends
throughout western Europe.
I had no problem crossing boarders with my passport.

I will have to ask my Swedish friends here about northern Europe.

Obama has hidden every scrap of information of his life that he possibly could.No word from wikileaks.

When he’s kicked out of the WH he can get rich by teaching felons on how to do it.

Me thinks all your excuses show severe desperation. The clock is ticking and your protestations are only going to give the states more reason to draft a proof of eligibility law. Please keep it up.

The article makes no sense. It mocks and says that a "paltry" 11% are "birthers". So if it's only 11% then why, if you believe the theory, is Obama and his minions spending so much time and effort to promote it? You would figure that IF there were a birth certificate that somebody, anybody, could have gotten it out there by now despite the bureaucratic law against doing so. I'm sure that an authentic copy of a long form certificate could fetch a very handsome price on the open market....more than enough to make up for any fines that an employee of Hawaii might get IF they even get caught.

No, it just makes no sense as a political ploy. It makes more sense that there really is a problem considering the vehement way they even oppose having states enact basic eligibility requirements.

Which means that Black America and Jewish America are but a paltry drag on the society

Walden, AlphPundit and Rush are all wrong. Abercrombie, in this case, was a complete duffass. He was SO sure he knew what he didn’t know that he stuck his neck out before he looked for documentation. Any benefit obtained as a result is purely by accident.

Walden also suggests that the masses cannot walk and chew gun at the same time. The idea that this is a grand slight of hand that distracts everyone from the real Obama failures is just nonsense. On the other hand, the lib media is more than happy to do more stories about “idiot birthers” so that they don’t have to report on Obamalini.

Birthers need to be ridiculed. They’re kooks.

The whole "birther" thing is about manipulation.

Obama, if he wanted, could resolve the situation tomorrow but what's in it for him politically? Nothing. The "birther" movement provide a great puppet for political theater. "Birthers" are his "vast right wing conspiracy."

Those concerned about a president being, you know, constitutionally qualified should ignore Obama and focus on states requiring documentation from candidates ahead of the next election cycle.

My reaction is "Not the briar patch."

If Obama is clever enough to have FOR YEARS, obscured everything about his past and, in fact, invented his past, so as to trap folks like moi, then I consider myself trapped.

When he was talking about 57 States and "breathalyzers," he showed everyone just how clever he is. Think about Obama in comparison to Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton was clever. Barack Obama is stupid.

People like Abercrombie and others are just doing whatever they might think is best to save Obama and their party given the difficult circumstances they find themselves in, but that doesn't make them brain surgeons.

Why would someone keep a passport that has been expired for 20 years? My expired passports are shredded as soon as I renew.

I think you are unusual then. I have all of my old passports (first one issued in the mid 70s), in a drawer in my bedroom, right next to my current passport and a certified copy of my birth certificate.

“The Constitutiona and the rule of law means nothing to these people. You can’t rationalize lawlessness.” BigSkyFreeper


It seems you can pick and choose which to rationalize the lawlessness, and ridicule others seeking complete respect to the Constitution and the rule of law.

I find it “kooky” to think there is a difference, either you respect all of them or you're cherry picking.

I think it's people who find it acceptable to mock and spew names towards those who are seeking the truth, to be just as guilty as Obama supporters for letting this issue continue to fester as they search to make excuses for lack of honesty from our usurper and are just as guilty for the current crisis. Don't worry yourself about it though, the truth will be known someday.
