OBL is dead. And there's the diversion.
I didn't respond with an opinion of BT. I responded to something you said.
“if it’s a forgery ~ they RECREATED the document”
And they did a poor job of it. The question is why. Here are my 4 theories:
1) Incompetence
2) Intentional Mockery of the BC issue (cynical ploy - but almost believable - if Obama was trying to prove a point, and hold to some principle that no one, no one, not the American people nor anyone, has any right to see his actual LFBC. Again cynical, but makes some sense. What doesn’t make sense about this reason, is the WH scrambling with 3 different versions and different locations of this. They seem somewhat horrified themselves about all this - or at least not all on the same page.)
3) Obama has something to hide and has gone to incredible lengths to hide it. (Reasons 2 and 3 might have worked together as motivation.)
4) Character assassination from inside (in which case, why, and how did the Obama Admin trust this ‘document’ enough to distro it to pressers and put it on the WH website. Now, the link location’s been changed and they’ve had at least THREE versions of this sucker up on the WH - how BAD is that? Unreal.)

The thing I find odd is so many either pretty new people or old people with few comments, who mainly go after people disucssing Zero’s ineligiblity. It’s just damn odd.

Hi Bruce,
I’m not sure whether you’ve really captured the essence of what I’ve been saying. I do certainly believe in standing up for the Constitution.
My only Obama eligibility comments to date have regarded points of evidence on the birth certificate issue. I really have not attempted to address whether or not Obama is a natural born citizen apart from that.
And I am definitely in favor of standing on principle. In fact, that’s kind of at the heart of my saying at different points, “Look, the evidence for this particular thing really doesn’t add up.” The principle is truth. I think if we sacrifice truth, we’re selling our souls. I also think that doing so is likely to backfire on us.
I do think though that we also have to try and balance principle with practicality. If we identify that we just can’t win on issue A no matter what we do, but we might be able to win on issue B, then maybe we’d better spend more of our energies on issue B.
Personally, I have honestly wondered whether some of the people posting obvious discredited nonsense again and again might be troll types.
It’s a madhouse tonight and someone is Nurse Ratchet.
Super concerned noobs such as yourself are pretty transparent, akshully.
FR is a madhouse tonight. Absolutely never seen anything like it.
“Concern” troll.
Ah, yes. The time honored ad hominem attack.
What people pull out when they have nothing meaningful to say about the actual point being discussed.
Be that as it may, it’s easily refutable as well. Just go through my entire posting history.
Yes, I am particularly interested in this issue. So what? I also tend to post a fair bit on firearms issues. I post occasionally on more theological type topics. I’m also interested in science/technology/space and economic issues.
We all have our interests. I’m sure you have yours, I have mine.
By the way, I thought elitism was supposed to be the province of liberals.
This is correct. Like I just said, "I didn't respond with an opinion of BT. I responded to something you said."
SO DON’T BOTHER RESPONDING TO MY COMMENTS ABOUT SOMEONE ELSE IF YOU HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE ABOUT WHAT I WAS REFERRING TO, PEST!
It's a public thread. Your comments are available for any FReeper to read and respond to.
