Alinsky preached planting “memes” into the public consciousness.
Didn’t matter one whit whether they were actually true or not...just that they were abundantly sown like bad seeds, to take root wherever they fell.
“Truth” has no place any more.
What is presented as “truth” does.
“What we perceive, we believe.”
Unfortunately, we are more often than not handed skillfully altered perceptions.
Alinsky would be proud of his proteges.
They have learned well at the Devil’s knee.
[seriously...everyone should get a grip on their gag reflex and read that evil book..all of this would suddenly “make sense”]
I’m sure it did.
Now let’s see who loves money more than fighting for freedom and truth.
Strawman argument, which is typical of you.
It started out as a resolution that talked about Hawaii and its history and then Ambercrombie stuck a clause in there pertaining to Obama being a natural born citizen. Bachmann tried to object, but realistically, it was too late at that point in time.
At any rate, it's a non binding resolution and if Obama has committed any malfeasence pertaining to his birth documents it will nothing to mitigate or absolve him of those transgressions or make him elegible to still hold office.
The answer is quite simple.
He travelled to Pakistan using his U.S. Passport.
Your dream Mandingo lover is the one that has provided no evidence.
And it is words like those that show us your true motivations.
Not a strawman if you are unable to get one singe member of Congress to say that Obama was not born in Hawaii.
I am not all that sure what a "FOAD" is but that does not seem to be the issue at hand.
But the answer to your question is simple, he went to Pakistan on a US Passport, which of course was perfectly legal.
Doesn’t the word “Birtherism” have a distinctive ring to it?
I think it’s more clever than that.
A seed of doubt, once planted, is not easily uprooted.
[”Hath God ~surely~ said Ye shall die?”]
Since marginalizing/ridiculing the opposition is a premier tenet of Alinsky’s “bible”, I think this was -intentional-.
He knew the circumstances of his birth was *just* “mysterious” enough to get traction in the “fringe” and planted the seeds of his ineligibility on purpose.
This sets the stage for “handling” any other questions that will ever be asked of him.
Whatever ~is~ or is ~not~ on the BC is nowhere as important as his refusal to release it.
[’Mystery hath more power than Revelation’]
If [more likely when] anyone who questions his birth is summarily slapped down, even by their “own kind”, he has won a HUGE victory.
From that moment forth, *any* question about him will instantly be classified as being on par with “those birther types”.
He will have absolute and utter free rein [reign?] over his cowering, silenced subjects.
If perverted laws are passed [”Fairness Doctrines”] effectively making it illegal to speak such “blasphemies” against him, how many will turn on [turn in?] their own friends/family *just* to appear to be in step with the program?
To take any possible suspicion away from themselves?
It’s not like this has never happened before.
We have 2 choices.
Pursue it to the bitter end, regardless of which talking heads betray us or roll over and accept him as the infallible, perfect messiah.
Another strawman. By law, he controls access the necessary evidence ( birth records ). So long as that is the case, it is entirely incumbent upon him to prove his elegibility.
BTTT!
Muawiyah, I too am worried about the health care scam.
My husband, who is literally my life, is 65 and although he’s hale and hardy, he is STILL “over 65” and therefore “expendable” to those who worship youth and inexperience.
*I* am sick from worrying what will happen to *him*, should this hell-spawned health care bill pass.
I will NOT worship their gold-plated moon calf.
Ever.
My birthday this year is ruined because it falls one day before we find out *for sure* if the health-scam is taken to vote.
My best to you.
Keep on mockin’....:)
Whether it's true or not, it doesn't matter. The left is using it for their gain. You have to know when to hold them, and know when to fold them. With the left controlling the story, it over.
Another factor pushing the birther phenomenon is that those who have thoroughly investigated the birther claims have much more detailed knowledge of the subject than the average pundit or reporter writing about it. Birthers keep waiting to hear real answers to the basic questions, but those answers just never come. Instead one hears bloviating reporters and pundits who don’t know a COLB from a parking ticket. “Shut up” is not an acceptable answer.
He ripped that off from Ezekiel.
[is there *anything* that is not derivative?]....:))
Shut up is not an acceptable answer.”
Just wait ‘til “Shut up or else” comes into play.
And he proved his eligibility in the same manner as those who have preceded him in office.
