Obama being born out of an apple pie in the middle of a Kansas wheat field as Toby Keith sings the National Anthem—such are the contents of an amicus brief filed by an Alabama Democrat Party which has resorted to ridicule in responding to the Obama eligibility case McInnish-Goode v Chapman which will be held in front of Judge Roy Moore and the Alabama Supreme Court! In an exclusive story, WND reporter Drew Zahn, (1) claims the flippant nature of this brief indicates that the Obama team will be unable to brush off legitimate questions about how he can serve...

I do not purport to take a stance on the Obama birth certificate controversy, save to say that his refusal to release the full document is suspicious. I do take issue with falsehoods being put up in Obama's defense though. One of those falsehoods is currently being used to "debunk" the rumor that Obama was born in Mombassa, Kenya instead of Hawaii.

As with so many things about Obama, this claim is...

The Israeli-owned Paradise Hotel in Indian Ocean port of Mombassa, Kenya reopened Sunday exactly two years after hotel was the target of a suicide car bombing attack. Three suicide bombers rammed their car into the Israeli-owned Paradise Hotel in November 2002, killing Noy and Dvir Anter, 12 and 13, Albert DeHaville, 60, and nine others, and wounding 80. At about the same time, terrorists fired at least two missiles at an Arkia airliner carrying 261 passengers as it took off from Mombassa's airport for Israel. The missiles narrowly missed, and the plane landed safely at Ben-Gurion Airport approximately five hours...

Al-Qa'ida used war-torn Somalia as a base to plan and launch Mombassa hotel bombing By Declan Walsh in Nairobi 04 November 2003 A year after Al Qa'ida terrorists bombed a Kenyan tourist hotel, a new investigation has highlighted the pivotal role played by Somalia in the attack, and raised fears that a fresh atrocity could be launched from the war-torn country.
