Ermey Says He’ll 'Square Away' Birthers
Military.com ^ | 8-21-2009 | Military.com|by Bryant Jordan

Posted on 08/25/2009 4:45:39 PM PDT by AZ .44 MAG

Troops challenging the legitimacy of President Barack Obama as commander-in-chief -- including at least one who is fighting deployment -- should take heed: Gunnery Sgt. Hartman wants to know your "major malfunction."

R. Lee Ermey, the Marine-turned-actor whose role as drill instructor Gunny Hartman in the late Stanley Kubrick's "Full Metal Jacket" has all but placed the Vietnam veteran in the pantheon of Marine heroes alongside "Chesty" Puller, Smedley Butler and Dan Daly, isn't buying anyone's political objector status.

"I haven't heard about those guys," Ermey told Military.com during an Aug. 21 interview. "If I do run across them though, trust me, I'll square them away."

There are no such decisions. But keep on making your ignorance clear. It is important that all get a clear impression of it.

"Oh, give it a rest."

Give what a rest? A real Marine wouldn't do a gay scene in a movie

Execute a few of the traitors and this nonsense will come to a quick end.
What "nonsense" is that?
We took an oath to "support and defend" the Constitution, not the President.
Go flaunt your ignorance somewhere else.

I don't want to watch it. Can you give a synopsis? I may never watch Mail Call with the same mindset again.

There are 2 on the net. The one from the Panama Railroad is apparently a fake.

Well, in the movie Saving Silverman (2001), let's just say that at near the end of the movie he and co-star Jack Black liplocked.

I believe it now. I'n sure this information came from a full investigation by the paper and not just from B. Hussein Obama? Surely a Chicago newspaper wouldn’t just take B. Hussein Obama’s word for something like that.

Yeah, sure.

It’s a well known fact that women have so many rights and freedoms in sub-Saharan Mohammedan countries like Rwanda where they still practice female circumcision.

There are other articles. I gave you one. Have another.

Obama's grandma slams 'untruths' 3/5/2008 USA Today

Sarah Obama was the second wife of the candidate's late grandfather, so is not his biological grandmother. But Barack Obama's half sister, Auma Obama, said: "By our definition, in our culture, she is his grandmother," she said.

Not at all, there has been nothing done by this usurper in the White House that I do not question or attempt to find multiple sources of confirmation on.

He’s unable to even keep straight which hospital he was born in, that should be reason enough for any person with an IQ over 60 to wonder about.

Yeah, I heard the origional tape where the shills were trying to get Grandma to change her story. So I have no doubt that his poverty stricken family will say anything for a few bucks.

I’ll bet you could get his brother, who lives on $12.00 a year, to say B. Hussein Obama was dropped from Mohammed’s flying horse’s ass if you paid him $1,200.00.

Your original statement was that you didn’t believe she was Obama’s step-grandmother. You’ve been given articles stating she is. What you believe or accept is up to you.

I've seen no article as credible as the tape of her speaking and people trying to get her to change her story. Until something more believable than B. Hussein Obama’s word, or the word of one of his shills, is presented, the only rational thing to do is to believe his grandmother.

Ok. You lost me. What does Sarah being his step-grandmother have to do with a tape?

(That latter requirement is one year of residence, which she did meet).

It is now, but was not at the time of his birth. The requirement, iirc, was that she be resident at least four years after reaching the age of majority. She was not old enough to have done so.

And we know that Obama graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Law School.

Do we have his transcript? Newspaper accounts? Or even a copy, independently supplies, of the program from the graduation?

IIRC he had the magna cum laude thing on his University of Chicago webpage. Also it was in the news a lot. I don't think he could just put such a fact "out there" if it was not true and not have either Harvard or one of his many classmates shoot it down.

Given that he has trouble putting 3 words together without use of the teleprompter,

That's actually not true. It's just that a lot of people can't stand to hear him talk for more than 3 words before they flip the channel. I watched two of his town halls and he did speak extemporaneously on a number of very complex topics during the question period. IMHO it did not appear that all the questioners were plants. There were very few pauses and he managed the time well. Of course he had planned the overall message he wanted to put across.

He gave a speech at the beginning where he may have been using a teleprompter. As I was mainly just listening I did not notice.

He was also able to appear to think on his feet during the debates, although again that could have been helped by good preparation.

The person I have known in my life who paused the most in his speech was also one of the most extremely intelligent people I have ever met. Some people pause in their speech when they are thinking. Obama may be a socialist but he is not stupid.

Good night. Sleep well.

Since you'll more than likely be on before me tomorrow I'll respond now.

The idea that she is his step-grandmother was raised to prove that she was saying she was there when his father was born not when BHO was born, after I pointed out that no woman has to say she was there when her son was born. Someone said that she said was there when Obama’s old man was born because her step-son not her real son. But that only works if she thinks the old man is president and her grandson.

She and the interviewer were talking about her being proud that her grandson was president when she said she was there when he was born. So even if one believes the story that she is his step-grandmother, it doesn’t explain away her statement that he was born in Rwanda and she was there.

“There are 2 on the net. The one from the Panama Railroad is apparently a fake.

Post 38”

*********************

Both are fake. BTW, there’s a McCain birth announcement in the “Society Notes” section of the Canal Zone newspaper in 1936 which states he was born at the base hospital at Coco Solo. Library of Congress copy:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/documents/mccain_announcement_041708.pdf

So if, as some birthers allege, there was no base hospital at Coco Solo in 1936, then McCain’s mom is lying, and either the Library of Congress copy is a fake, or nobody in 1936 said, “Hey, there’s no hospital at Coco Solo! Obviously, there’s a Vast Conspiracy at work to elect the infant McCain as POTUS decades from now!”
