Media: admit it, Trump forced the issue. Now, don't let the WH distract you w/the birth crt from what Bernanke says today. Stay focused, eh?

Forced what issue? Making GOP voters look foolish?

Damned if she does and damned if she doesn't.

Agree.

Now lets get his college transcripts.

Trump Claims Obama Was A “Terrible Student,” Asks For College Transcripts

Real estate mogul Donald Trump has garnered plenty of publicity for asking Barack Obama to release his birth certificate, but now he’s asking the President to reveal something else: his college transcripts.

“I heard he was a terrible student,” Trump said during an interview with the Associated Press. “I’m certainly looking into it. Let him show his records.”

While Obama did not release his academic records during the 2008 campaign, it is known that he served as President of the Harvard Law Review and ultimately graduated from the school magna cum laude. He completed work as an undergrad at Columbia University.

Trump took his criticism one step further by questioning Obama’s admittance to the two Ivy League schools.

“I have friends who have smart sons with great marks, great boards, great everything and they can’t get into Harvard,” Trump told the AP.

Trump has been flirting with a possible Presidential run. In a Gallup poll released last week on possible Republican candidates, he took first place, along with former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee.

Exactly! bttt

I’ve been saying that ever since he started.

Not the first time your political judgments have been correct, from what I’ve observed. So who put these 2 together? Giuliani? Koch Brothers? I’d love to know but I don’t think I ever will for sure...LOL.

Sarah is right again.

And assuming that this document is legit (and I am for now-- everyone learned from Dan Rather), then we can now focus on just how bad Obama has been as President.

Yes, it's better to get this thing out now rather than later. And I am surmising that this move came now because the Hussein Clown Posse saw some bad omens in polling data. (Remember, as political pros, they don't buy the drivel from the MSM either.)

Trump is only getting warmed up on being a pain in Obama's side.

Ive been thinking too... Did you see Trumps conference this morning? It was stunning TV. Im talking he was all over Obama on everything. I was cracking up! But he said one thing over and over that struck me as odd. He said we would be very very surprised at the end of his show what he has to say. Now, I think conventional wisdom is he is going to jump in. I dont think so anymore. I think someone will show up and announce live on TV that night. Now who will that be? Thoughts?

Now is the time for another round of lawsuits challenging eligibility. dual national?? did he renounce his Brit citizenship?

Thanks!:) One possibility is that they met through Mark Burnett. I believe one of them mentioned that previously in an interview. I’m not sure which one. Who knows whether that’s the only connection or not.

[Al B.]

I saw a bit of it and did hear that comment from Trump. Don’t have a clue what that means but you have an interesting theory, to say the least.

[Al B.]

I’m sure there will be more lawsuits. Problem is, all the court judgments in the world won’t get him out of office. Only an election or an impeachment will do that and the Dems ain’t gonna vote to remove him from office.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

People can sue over eligibility all they want now, BUT it won't make a bit of difference since the courts do NOT have the power to remove a sitting President, even if found ineligible (and that's a BIG if). Only Congress can do that, and it won't ever happen with Dingy Harry controlling the Senate.

Time to move on and hit Obama on the various other things he has screwed up on.

[Marylander]

Capitulation. Congrats to The Donald.

[Minus_The_Bear]

Palin %100 correct about this. Obama did this to distract from Bernanke's speech.

[magna carta]

We have to address the legal question,Obama is providing the fodder for the legal question to avoid the long-term disaster of foreign influence in the executive branch. The media can continue to hammer the budget issues,health-care etc...but we have to FIGHT the legal precedent being set. Leo did a good job of laying this out. That explains why Leo & Alan Keyes are rarely allowed on TV to discuss the issue. AMERICA HAS A TREASON PROBLEM!!!

You did notice what Palin did here correct?

She pinned the birther issue directly on Trump. Not her. very good politcal move.

[Donald Rumsfeld Fan]

What did Trump gain? I don’t see this as anything positive for him but positive for the White House. I could be wrong but I doubt it.

He showed that he could force Obama’s hand ...something the MSM couldn’t/wouldn’t do and in the process shows us that he is the only GOP politician that has balls.

It’s very nice that she immediately gave credit where credit was due. Quite selfless as a good christian should be.
