Ok, this PISSES ME OFF.

This is NOT a birther issue. It is a LEGAL CONSTITUTIONAL issue. Take your alynski BS and fold it into sharp corners and stick it....

“The Constitution does not, in words, say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common-law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners.” Minor v. Happersett, 88 U.S. 162, 168.”

I think it’s time we put the mute button on these obots! They are here to stir and anger and unfortunately I was in the mind today to let them.

I’ve changed my mind and decided they are not worth the effort. Breathe easy and hope that one day this distinction can finally be put to rest. We want a ruling - they are afraid of a ruling! Simple logic! Both sides should insist on a ruling once and for all. The side that doesn’t want this to get to the Supreme court actually is the side that is afraid. Again, simple logic!

Yeah, tell it to Newt Gingrich. He's the one weighing Rubio as a potential running mate, not me.

Maybe you could write Speaker Gingrich a strongly-worded letter as he clearly does not understand the Constitution, --unlike blogger, part-time musician and amateur poker player Leo "Burnweed" Donofrio.
