The president appears to be loving the whole Obama-wasn’t-born-here myth.
At a lunch on Capitol Hill on St. Patrick’s Day, Obama told an audience that included plenty of Republicans that “some are still bent on peddling rumors about my origins.” But he wasn’t talking about what you’d think he was alluding to:
“Now, speaking of ancestry, there has been some controversy about my own background. Two years into my presidency, some are still bent on peddling rumors about my origins. So today, I want to put all those rumors to rest. It is true my great-great-great-grandfather really was from Ireland. It’s true. Moneygall, to be precise. I can’t believe I have to keep pointing this out.”
Obama cracked his laugh line just a week after rattling off another birther joke he used to address the persistent claim among some conservatives that he wasn’t born in Hawaii, but rather in Kenya.
At a Boston fundraiser on March 8, Obama told supporters: “There’s no weakness in us trying to reach out and seeing if we can find common ground. Now, there are going to be times where we can’t. I was born in Hawaii, what can I say? I mean, I just – I can’t – I can’t change those facts.”

The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
It's like being a "little" pregnant.
If it wasn’t true, Barry and his toadies in the state run “media” wouldn’t be so worried about it. Barack Hussein Obama IS NOT eligible to be the President of the United States. He has never been able to prove that he is.
He’s a vindictive, ruthless, son-of-a-whore. On this subject just think of him as the cat playing with the half-dead mouse.
Having said that, there is a REAL reason why his origins are mysterious.
At least Trump is being a “little reasonable”. No go for pres but call the loser out...
He’s either immature and a bully who has to keep punching people or he’s very, very nervous about being found out. It’s probably both. Me, I don’t care where he was born only that the Kenyan’s not eligible by NBC.
Give him a break. He’s been working so hard. He probably needs a vacation. Maybe a round of golf.
So he really wasn’t busy on the Libya problem. or working on helping Japan. He was busy signing a condolance book on his way back from yet another Party.
Isn’t ridicule right out of the Alinsky handbook? Hmmmmm. I think we should poke that sore spot with a stick until he yelps out loud.
We do not have a president but we do have something in the White House called Obuggery.
How about a trip to Rio?
That means that the birthers’ claims have validity and this scares him white!
“some are still bent on peddling rumors about my origins.”
I suppose by that he means many Americans aren’t convinced that he’s qualified to be president.
Or, “some still think I’m a fraud.” Yes, that’s a succinct translation.
I love how Obama butt kissers at Politic0 thinks it funny.
I’m sure they’d be cracking up if Palin refused to provide her BC.
If his useful idiot media whores had just one ounce of honesty, he would be back in Chicago, tokin’ with Larry.
Exactly! He is a bully or has a bully's sense of humor.
LTC Lakin sits in prison and Major Cook lost his job and his security clearance because Obama refused to release a few common documents,
He wasted tax dollars sending **government** attorneys around the nation to prevent the release of documents unanointed Americans routinely release for many reasons. He WASTED Department of Justice resources at a time when plots were being laid to blow up Times Square, blow up a Pittsburgh marathon, explode a passenger plane out of the sky over Detroit, and **KILL** our soldiers on their bases and recruitment centers.
If Obama releases these common documents at a later time in an effort to make the birthers look foolish there will be a lot of Americans who won't be laughing. Not a bit! Voters won't find this funny.
I wonder if Obama pulls the wings off flies just to enjoy seeing them squirm.
My experience is that when someone ask or states where they were born, they give the town.
Only when asked "where is that" do they give the state.
