“the man is DISHONEST.”
Agreed. At this point I’d have to say he’s just dividing his enemies. I’m starting to get the feeling we’re getting played for suckers with the WH version of the COLB. It’s been screwed with just enough to suggest fraud, but not enough to be definitive.

Why is "Birtherism" here to stay? Here, I'll sum it up for you....
So many lies, so little time.

I’ve argued long and hard with a lot of birthers, but this statement is totally true:
“...he’s a radical leftist, an anti-gun fanatic, a disciple of world government and Darth Vader’s delinquent nephew.”
Pity the author presents it as parody. And he should have added muslim...

Mama Texan hasn't yet responded to my inquiry so perhaps you will please explain it to us.

Click on rxsid’s profile page for a good education on what is a NBC. Numerous very long research threads have been active on FR for almost or at least 3 years. I’ve done my homework and you could have too, rxsid’s page is excellent.

It’s very obviously both: born on the US soil to parents who are themselves citizens.

“There is no way that the founders of this great nation intended for an illegitimate child of a foreign bigamist to attain the highest, most powerful position in the new land.”
Of course you are correct.
Hell, his creepy dad’s personal loyalties were so questionably divided that even Harvard (in whom the author seems to place credibility) did not trust him or want him to stay.
Critics, including some here at FR, of the ‘birthers’ are wrong to assert that the ‘movement’ is just some new ploy by political enemies or just some ‘manufactured’ story.
Utter nonsense.
People like a good mystery. And Obama has created one to entice them. He obviously craves attention. He wrote two books about himself at a strangely young and relatively unaccomplished age. Yet he has hidden as much of the official record of his life as he could.
The interest in his less-than-transparent background is NOT
unusual. HE IS.

That is my contention as well. If he would just come clean, and admit the truth, all this nonsense would be history. Instead he chooses to snowball the lies and quite arrogantly too I might add. At other times, in other venues, elitist scum wax eloquent about lying as a necessary activity of capital-L Leadership. And now they complain about the obdurate skepticism and stubborn disbelief of large numbers of people, and ascribe to the stubborn the career- and life-slaying Big Media negative label of "racist" in retaliation.
As Douglas MacArthur said when he was informed on a roadside on Luzon of the death of Franklin D. Roosevelt, another liberal godling-demiurge,
"Now there was a man who never told the truth, if a lie would suffice."
Gods of liberalism. What scum.

Still, it's rather obscene that the bureaucrats in Hawaii have now been thoroughly immersed in the criminal behavior. You would think there would remain at least three or four honest people in Hawaii's vital records dept. But apparently there are not.

A perfect example in the difference between playing politics and statesmanship (wisdom and skill in the management of public affairs).

Not at all, he suffers delusions but they are far different from the ones he describes.

I’ll take his word on who his parents are, assuming that his father was Barack Hussein Obama Sr. then he cannot possibly be a natural born citizen as the term was understood when the requirement was written into the constitution.

To whom WAS he born and what is your evidence? An American citizen and a British subject...and the 'evidence' is everywhere.
