I could not agree more with Mr. Farah. All through this controversy about Obama's birth certificate, almost the entire media on the Right have ignored or mocked the story. They have been successfully bullied by the dominant Left in the media to do so. WND, Drudge, Diana West, and some of the writers on American Thinker have been rare exceptions.

Nope. They have been bullied by common sense and a lack of desperation to remove a president they hate from office on any pretext whatsoever.

You birthers really, really have to stop pretending everything’s a smoking gun. See the boy who cried wolf.

As it came to pass, the boy who cried “Wolf” was right.

The question is: Was he lying then or now?

“Is he lying now or was he lying then?” could be abridged into a bumper sticker/ meme...”Lying nOw Or then” with the O being made with the Obama logo.

Regardless....am promoting that phrase to be used again and again by the friendly media.

We have ourselves a crisis-in-avoidance.

I think the powers that be would rather just try to hold an election than to risk the damage this confrontation might do to the process.

The problem is that another election will win another 4 years for the ineligible potentate.

So tell me, Placenta Man, in your opinion...Was he lying then or now?

Or is this just another "Blame Someone Else/It's Not My Fault" moment?

Two possibilities:

1. He was born in Kenya because that’s where he said he was born.

2. He was born in Hawaii and spends millions of dollars to avoid having to prove it.

Now which one would Occam choose? How about the MSM, Rush, Steyn ...?

I heard the reps from Brietbart on the radio yesterday. They were maintaining that they aren’t focused on the eligibility issue, but rather Obama’s tendency to embellish.

"Like, ping, bump." Indeed. But the moral of the story is about "liars" and "false alarms" of which so far it is the birthers who have done neither.

Embelish!! That's like saying that Hitler was really just a frustrated art student.

I am pleased to see Freepers paying attention to Joseph Farah. He has outlasted his “UFO WorldNutDaily” critics in this forum.

The boy who cried wolf...

He lied and made false alarms...are the birthers being untruthful or are they asking for the truth?

The one lying is the one not willing to come forward it seems with truthful documents. Instead we've seen several fraudulent documents produced and numerous references that suggest his claims are false.

Is there a wolf or not?

Ho hum. Maybe it is time someone does an expose on just who owns the media.

“As it came to pass, the boy who cried ‘Wolf’ was right.”

Yeah, that’s the moral. If by some miracle evidence of Obama not being eligible surfaces, you don’t want no one listening to you. Also, were something to pop up not related to birtherism—I don’t know, say he helped Bill Ayers blow up an orphanage—you wouldn’t want everyone to dismiss it as, “Just another crazy right wing conspiracy theory, like that birther nonsense.”

A bigger question is what kind of jack@ss writes an autobiography when he hasn’t done anything.
