For the first time, Rep. Michele Bachmann who is actively considering a run for the White House in 2012 -- has said that the birth certificate President Obama has released to the public puts an end to the "birther" issue. It came when I showed her the copy of the Certificate of Live Birth published on FactCheck.org.
It happened this morning on GMA. Heres the key exchange:
Stephanopoulos: Last night you were on Fox News suggesting the president should come forward with his birth certificate as well --
Bachmann: Well, what I have said about that is, I was asked a question about that and Republicans are constantly asked to vouch for the authenticity of the birth certificate. The only one who can is the clerk of court in the county where someone is born and thats where people should go. Dont ask Republicans, go ask the clerk of court.

It seems to be a pattern with her.
He’s been president for over 2 years and you still don’t know?!? Do you need a building to fall on you?
Bachmann is full of it. It settles nothing. What particularly ticks me off is telling us to ask Hawaii. Hawaii has publicly said they will no longer respond to such requests. Congress owns this issue and has failed to do its job. They allowed an unknown to become president. Incredible.
Maybe when the IRS demands documentation I should say ill provide it when obama comes clean. As far as I am concerned obama is an illegal president until he provides sufficient documentation.
I had such high hopes for her too. Guess I’ll have to put her down on the list of those who think its ok to commit fraud against the American people. dang.
I think this resolves who is more conservative, Palin or Bachmann. Clearly Palin has her beat. Time for the T-Party to start whapping Michelle. “Taking President Obama at his word.”
The COLB has never been introduced in court or inspected by a forensic document examiner.
Hawaii allows for resident parents to obtain BCs for children born “without the state or territory.”
Only seeing the long form will prove anything and we’ve never seen it. Hawaii now tells us that it exists after CNN said the originals were all destroyed.
The truth is consistent. Lies change.

We need to contact Michele Bachmann via phone, email and her Facebook and educate her.
Fact Check is funded by he Leftwing Annenberg group. That Annenberg group also funded The Messiah when he sat on Bill Ayer's "challenge" forum.
The Annenbegs strike me as a bunch of whacko Leftists, except for my mother's close friend who is a good, Conservative person.

Stephanopoulos stated several times that the piece of paper he was waving around (the same old COLB) was a Birth Certificate and settles things. Bachmann then agreed it was settled.
It's performances like this, where she's either ignorant or scarred of the media, where Bachmann gives be doubts about who she really is .
"It's an interesting issue that has gone on for so long and it's one that the president could have solved very early on," Bachmann told Fox News host Judge Jeanine Pirro last night.
"All he had to do is just answer some questions and show his [long-form birth] document and then have people do an attestation that this in fact is a legal document and it's over, it's done. And I think the president has neglected to focus on answering that question for people, and that's why a lot of people still have it lingering in their minds. None of us can prove, none of us can do attestation. Only the president and someone who is legally tasked with attesting to the validity of that document can do that, and I think that's what the president should do."
If she REALLY believes that a “Certificate of Live Birth” is equivalent to a Birth Certificate, she doesn;t belong in the big leagues.
I have seen the same documentation everyone else has. The President could put this and many other issues to rest simply by releasing his records. Why he has not done so mystifies me.
Sincerely, Michelle Bachmann
This woman hijacked the Tea Party for her own gain. It got her a lot of attention and notoriety. We don’t need people in Congress or ex Congress people as part of the Tea Party.
BUT his reported Father was a BRITISH Citizen....and NOT an American Citizen....
Bachmann then agreed it was settled
Geez, she’s going off the list. Hopefully Sarah Palin has been informed about this issue.

Bachmann was just avoiding the issue. Steph pretended he achieved some victory, playing to the base. That’s all.
You and your buddy Barry are going to be exposed as the liars you are!
