LISTEN TO LOU DOBBS SAY THAT OBAMA HAS NO PROOF OF A VALID BIRTH CERTIFICATE!

Last night, 7/22/2009, NBC’s Nightly News with Brian Williams took 5 minutes to try to refute widespread claims across America that Barack Obama isn’t actually a natural born citizen, conveniently before Barack’s 8:00 p.m. sale of Health Care Reform to the people.[1] The Constitution states that, in order to be President, one must be a natural born American Citizen.[2] Nightly News reported that “legal scholars, liberal and conservative alike, are in widespread agreement that Barack Obama is fully qualified.”  The report then states that the Supreme Court has never verified what a “natural born citizen” really is. Both of these statements are...

The announcements of Barack Obama's birth printed by two Hawaii newspapers in 1961 do not provide solid proof of a birth in the Aloha State because of uncertainties over the policies and procedures that apparently were being used at the time. The Honolulu Star-Bulletin, for example, according to its website, now reprints birth information it receives from Hawaii's Department of Health. "We don't have an editor who handles birth and marriage announcements; we print what we receive from the Department of Health Vital Statistics System," a Star-Bulletin newsroom operator explained to WND. The operator said, "This is how we've always...

EDITOR’S NOTE: Please read these claims very carefully and then do the research yourself – try to find these documents on the Internet. You may also want to search for similar documents from former presidents just to make the comparison. MSNBC’s Chris Matthews got into a heated exchange with a congressman on his show Tuesday as he revisited the question of President Barack Obama’s birth certificate — or lack of one. Rep. John Campbell, R-Calif., is a co-sponsor of the so-called “birther bill,” which would require future presidential candidates to provide a copy of their original birth certificates. “Birthers” are...

Daring to go where only cable has gone so far, Wednesday's NBC Nightly News waded into the rampant claims that President Barack Obama -- though he was born in a U.S. state and to a mother who was a U.S. citizen, so even if he were born in Kenya he'd still be a U.S. citizen -- is somehow really not one. Anchor Brian Williams didn't hide his disdain, teasing the newscast: “Spreading lies about President Obama's birthplace and about his U.S. citizenship. Who's doing it and why?” (Too bad Williams didn't show such concern for wild allegations in late 2004...

Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution of the United States states, "No person except a natural born citizen of the United States shall be eligible to the Office of the President." If this is the law of the land, why is President Barack Obama hiding all references to much of his past, and why has he never produced his birth certificate? In fact, a study from the United States Justice Foundation has released information showing that Obama has spent upwards of $950,000 in campaign funds with 11 law firms in 12 states for legal resources to block disclosure of...

Like Adam Serwer, I simply assumed the nuts who questioned President Obama's citizenship would pick some new cause after the inauguration. During the campaign, they had a stronger incentive -- characterize Obama as "the other" and somehow "less American." But after Obama won -- and well after the release of his birth certificate and local newspaper's birth announcement -- the silly little right-wing crusade lost its salience. Or so I thought. Limbaugh, of course, is obsessed, but so is CNN's Lou Dobbs, who's not only spouting this nonsense on a nearly daily basis, but started to call the president "undocumented"...

For many months, AIP affiliates all across the nation have been pursuing the truth about whether or not Barack Obama is constitutionally qualified to be President of the United States. In addition to several key court challenges filed by leaders in the party, our people - regular constitution-loving, freedom-loving, patriotic citizens - have persistently kept this critically-important story alive. They are proving the practicality and viability of our goal of 'becoming the media.' To date, the American people have been deprived by the Obama faction of every key document that could settle this supremely important controversy once and for all....

“Slowly but surely, this meme is going mainstream,” says Allpundit. “Did Lou Dobbs really GO THERE? Seriously? This is getting absurd,” says the First Read team at MSNBC. Six months into his presidency, the charge that Barack Obama is — literally — un-American is gaining not losing steam. Yes, the Birther bump is growing. Need some backstory? Allow The Atlantic’s Marc Ambinder to explain: “Birthers, for the uninitiated, is a term used by the media to ridicule those who believe that the president’s Hawaiian birth certificate is fake and that because he was ostensibly born in Kenya, not the United...

Let this get out to the liberal media. Should the Democratic National Committee pay restitution for nominating a fraud?

LA Times media critic James Rainey wrote today that Lou Dobbs continues raising questions about Barack Obama's birth certificate on his radio show, and in doing so, is offering "a platform for assorted wing nuts." Rainey's piece follows Dobbs' bashing the "national liberal media" -- and specifically the LA Times -- on his radio show Tuesday. In looking at Dobbs' claims that there are still questions to be answered, Rainey spoke with Brooke Jackson, director of the Annenberg Political Fact Check, which debunked the theory last August. "CNN should be ashamed of itself for putting some of that stuff on...

A House Divided and Plea for Resolution: Formal Demand for Congressional Inquiry upon the Honorable Congressman Robert Goodlatte of the State of Virginia 21 July, 2009 Re: The Constitutional Authority of Barak Hussein Obama to Hold and Occupy the Office of the President of the United States of America and by which He Commands the Armed Forces. We are long past the general election of November and it seems as though it were ages ago. Now well into July we still have no resolution to one of the most important Constitutional issues we have faced in the entire history of...

Lou Dobbs had David from Freeport, N.Y., on the line, the caller musing darkly about President Obama "rushing all these programs through by whatever means," knowing he will soon be exposed as a fake, a fraud, a . . . Kenyan. At that point, a scrupulous radio host had three options: (A) hit the kill button (B) laugh and hit the kill button or (C) offer some push-back against the fantastical notion that Barack Obama was born on foreign soil and thus serves -- illegally -- as the Oval Office's first resident alien.

In a quest that is seen as wacky, way out there and as bitter partisan politics by some,the issue of Obama not showing his birth certificate to prove he is a naturalized American citizen continues. Is this really just some conspiracy theory along the lines of 9/11 truthers and alien cover ups? At first glance it seems like it. But surprisingly many American’s seem to actually believe there is some possibility of truth in this claim that Obama is not a citizen. WND continues to run stories on it but most recently a congressman’s town hall meeting became overwhelmed with...

Top-rated radio host Rush Limbaugh, upset that he's forced to report his every movement to tax authorities, blasted President Obama for failing to prove he is natural-born citizen of the United States. On his show today, Limbaugh told listeners, "As you know, I'm in the midst of another harassing audit from New York State and New York City for the last three years. We're up to 16 different ways I have to prove to New York City and state tax authorities where I have been every day – not just work week – but every day, for the past three...

The "Certification of Live Birth" posted online and presented by Barack Obama as documentation of his reported Hawaiian birth doesn't "prove" his birth alone, according to government officials interviewed by WND. According to officials with the U.S. State Department, such a short-form birth document might – or might not – be accepted as documentation of a U.S. birth for a passport if it meets certain requirements. Their conclusion is that the law is "complicated." And state officials in Hawaii independently told WND that such documents are issued only when certain standards have been met. But those requirements and standards to...

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa – The eBay seller who first offered – and then promised to reveal to WND – an alleged Barack Obama birth certificate from Mombasa, Kenya, has dropped communications with a team of people offering to help him verify the document, only fueling belief the sale was a scam. As WND reported, an eBay seller known originally as "colmado_naranja" claimed to have an authentic document from Coast Provincial Hospital in Mombasa proving Obama's birth there at 7:24 p.m. on Aug. 4, 1961.

The case of the missing birth certificate grows more and more curious. It has been fascinating to see how quickly various news sites have been frantically altering their assertions regarding Obama's birth hospital ever since Jerome Corsi broke the news of Barack Obama's letter to the Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children on July 6. This means that Obama was either born twice in Hawaii, or he was not born at Queen's Medical Center, as he claimed in 2007 when he first announced his presidential candidacy in Springfield, Ill. The attempt of the Obama administration to confuse the issue...

It was excelent to hear the cheering crowd as she sadi we never saw it on Jnauary 20...Rep Mike Castle said "well President Obama is a citizen..." he was interuppted by huge jeering from the crowd. So Limbaugh is going for broke now....excellent!

Mike Castel gets an earful...
