"A quick reality check, before we dive in: The challenges to Obama's eligibility have no grounding in evidence. Courts across the country have summarily rejected the movement's theory — that Obama can't be a citizen because his father wasn't —as a misreading of U.S. law; and Hawaii officials, along with contemporary birth announcements, affirm that Obama was in fact born in Honolulu in 1961."

~~Well, well, well ........ PING!

“the obscure New York preacher James Manning turned up at a National Press Club session in December to declare the president “the most notorious criminal in the history not just of America, but of this entire planet.”

That sane statement is certain to win over converts.

Viewed as irrelevant by the White House, and as embarrassing by much of the Republican Party, the subculture still thrives from the conservative website WorldNetDaily, which claims that some 300,000 people have signed a petition demanding more information on Obama's birth, to Cullman, Alabama, where Sen. Richard Shelby took a question on the subject at a town hall meeting last week.

Wow, does this mean that overpaid do-nothings on the View are going to retract their idiotic support for the "Truthers"?

Viewed as irrelevant by the White House

Right, Mr. Smith, you ignorant douche bag (sorry, I couldn't resist the ad hominem attack). That's why 0bama has spent hundreds of thousands defending against the suits.

And before anyone jumps in and says "There's no proof he's spent hundreds of thousands" (I've heard that here and at DU land), guess what - SOMEONE is defending against all those suits that have been filed. SOMEONE HAD to be, or they wouldn't have all been dropped. You don't think those cases got to the Supreme Court unopposed, do you? That the Supreme Court just dropped them because it was the right thing to do, and that there were no legal briefs filed in opposition? Right. I have some land in Florida that you're going to be interested in, I can tell.

You might make the case that interested parties other than the White House were defending against the suits, but then I'd have to ask you where's that money and the impetus to defend coming from? The answer is obvious. So, I feel justified in calling Ben Smith an ignorant douche bag, because you don't have to have photocopies of attorney's invoices for defending Zero - you just have to have about a nickel's worth of common sense.

[curiosity]

The opportunity for the White House? It's one of which some conservatives are sharply aware — that the Birthers may discredit Obama's more mainstream enemies.

Hear that birthers? By advancing your crackpot theories, you are helping the enemy. That's why I and many other conservatives are taking the time to debunk your nonsense.

"At some level, they're not that bad to have around because it reminds people that under the mainstream conservative press there's this bubbling up of really irrational hatred for the guy," said former Clinton White House press secretary Jake Siewert.

Why, oh why, dear birthers, do you want to give the enemy this kind of amunition?

Politico is mainstream?

Discredit, ridicule the boy who shouted that the King has no clothes, that is the proven Communist method, bought hook, line and sinker by the incurious!

Illuminati secret societies fund a Socialist to become President
and bankrupt the U.S.
Sound too strange? Just another "theory" on Art Bell? Think again.

[RebelTXRose]

I understood the “challenges to Obama’s eligibility” have NOT BEEN HEARD due to lack of standing of the plaintiffs.
Please tell us WHICH COURT has “rejected... as a misready of US law”

[urtax$@work]

"Untold numbers of people have asked us to look into it," said Tom Fitton, the president of Judicial Watch, which recently sued to block Hillary Clinton, on technical grounds connected to her Senate seat, from taking the position of secretary of state. "When we sued over Hillary ineligibility there were a lot of folks saying, 'Why weren't you suing over Obama's ineligibility?'" he said.. Fitton said he hadn't "seen any credible evidence Barack Obama is not a U.S. citizen eligible for the presidency." "If people understood better what the law is, I don't think they'd be as concerned as they are," he said.

I wondered where J.W. has been with all this.

[Diggity]

The dig at Tariz about getting an online law degree is really funny because as everyone knows she had to pass the bar.

Its much easier to learn law in a class room then online and probably indicates how capable of mind she has.

I can’t wait until this blows up in obama’s face.

[Iron Munro]

Time to put an end to this insanity!

Obama, just show the country your real birth certificate so everyone can see how foolish the doubters are.

[redk]

Even if he was born in Hawaii there are plenty of other things that could be on the birth certificate that would render his entire life story, as presented to the sheep, a lie.

[El Gato]

The difference being that BHO could pretty much end the whole thing by spending $12.50 for a certified copy of his original Certificate of Live Birth". Bush could not do that with regard to the accusations of the "truthers", nor could Clinton in regard to the Foster affair. They would have had to prove a negative, ie. that they did not do what was insinuated. BHO needs to prove that something did happen a particular way. Much easier, once that was done, the issue of his father's nationality and the meaning of "Natural born citizen, could be handled by the courts in fairly short order, if they could get past the roadblocks of the technical issues of standing, ripeness and so forth thrown out by the lawyers for The One.

The situations are not at all analogous.

[Oldpuppymax]

Who knew that the lib Politico and Ben Smith were actually getting so worried about this that they decided it was time to attack with ridicule?

[EternalVigilance]

So many lies, so little time.

[Revolting cat!]

Questions raised about Obambi’s birth certificate are threatening to the Establishment of MSM and gummint, because once they are proven to be legitimate, they’d expose not only whatever issues there might be with Obomba’s claims, but more importantly, expose the culture of corruption at the core of the Establishment.

[wintertime]

The “stillbirthers” refuse to cover the most important story since the founding of our republic.

Stillbirthers: Those who would trample the Constitution to defend a usurper to the presidency.

[hedgetrimmer]

None of the courts have viewed any evidence. No court has subpoenaed any of Obama’s records so this article is a lie from the get go. Maybe there is a factual statement in the whole thing, but it’s buried under the insults and disinformation.

People wbo are familiar with the alinsky method can identify it in play in this ‘article’ as well. Let me demonstrate:

Birthers
irrelevant
embarrassing
obscure, discredited theories
34 percent of the public believes in UFOs and 24 percent believes in witches..
birth-obsessed fringe
Birthers may discredit Obama’s more mainstream enemies.
“crazy, nutburger, demagogue, money-hungry, exploitative, irresponsible, filthy conservative imposters”
“It makes us look weird. It makes us look crazy. It makes us look demented. It makes us look sick, troubled, and not suitable for civilized company
“Birthers,” as they’re dismissively known,
his could be a very big conspiracy to make conservatives disgrace themselves

You’ve basically posted a piece of junk, it has no credibility.

[hedgetrimmer]

Why don't you post an article about Obama's transformation of our culture into his idea of a global socialist utopia? If you were a conservative, and not an Obama paid blogger, you might just do that.

Brown woos Obama on global deal
GORDON BROWN hopes to forge a partnership with President Barack Obama in Washington this week, to call for a “global new deal” to lift the world out of recession.

The prime minister will borrow from the rhetoric of Franklin Roosevelt, who introduced the government-financed New Deal to tackle the US Depression of the 1930s. He will argue that his 21st century “global new deal” will also require public spending on a huge world-wide scale.

Obama thinks he's FDR on steroids. IN NO WAY, under a Constitutional government, can the American taxpayer be forced to pay for the global socialism this plan entails. But since Obama cannot be proven constitutionally eligible for the office, why stop at anything the Constitution prohibits?
