Well n00b, you started with a strawman and really beat the hell out of it didn’t ya! ... “If they were given ‘other’ documents, when these rumors started, they would have immediately begun investigating.” Nice agitprop work there, n00b. Disgusting Obamoperatives are scuzzying up the FR homesite.
I'm not a "noob" and I said if because so many people have implied that he didn't have to give his birth certificate when he got his passport. I was covering all bases.
It's sort of sad and pitiful, not to mention telling that you can offer no rebuttal, but can only throw insults and accusations. One does not have to be an Obama supporter to demand more proof than "none" and to assume that the various intelligence agencies that keep us safe every day are smarter than "some guys on the internet".
Because nothing I said changes the fact that to believe that the government doesn't know if Obama is a citizen or not requires you to believe that the State Department, CIA and FBI are nothing but a bunch of bumbling morons.
If Obama gave his birth certificate when he got his passport, the State Department has a copy. They have experts to determine if it is real. If they wanted a better copy, they have ways of getting them.
If Obama gave other documents when he got his passport, as allowed, as soon as these rumors started, those "other documents" would have raised eyebrows and they would have doubled their efforts to know whether he is a citizen or not.
Or is it that the CIA, FBI & State Departments, plus the President the answer to all know, and they are part of the Vast Liberal Conspiracy?
Which is it? Is it that a US Senator, first elected in 2004 has outwitted the entirety of US Intelligence, or are they, along with the current President, in cahoots to have Obama and Democrats nationwide elected?
