Default Obama says ‘birther’ talk will be a liability for GOP

O'bamas driving the Right Wing Loons CRAZY with this. Why should he go farther in proving that he was born in Hawaii, he thinks it plays to his advantage.

Obama says ‘birther’ talk will be a liability for GOP - Yahoo! News

In a rare move, President Obama directly addressed "birther" conspiracies Thursday, suggesting that presidential candidates who've decided to entertain the theories may find themselves in electoral trouble.

Obama told ABC News' George Stephanopoulos that most general election voters are not "birthers," people who question Obama's birthplace of Hawaii

Heh, we could file this under "no duh". I actually think the Presidency is there for the taking for the Repubs, but they're screwing the pooch like a prize stud.

It was the same mistake the Dems made in 2004. Bush could have easily gone down, but they blew it.

Jug Ears is starting to get scared, the "Birth Thing" ain't going away, he knows during the next election people like "Suck A Lemon Trump" will be all over it every day then finally even the "Jug Ear Groupies" will be saying "for Christ sake show them the friggin birth certificate" Jug Ears won't be able to then that will be the end of America's Poster Boy.

President Barack Hussein Obama won't show the American People his birth certificate BECAUSE HE CAN'T HE DOESN'T HAVE ONE.

Harry, if a Hawaiian resident goes to the Hawaii website and requests a birth certificate, they get the document that Obama provided, a document that has been thoroughly analyzed by both the media and an independent group. Why should Obama be held to a different standard than any other citizen of Hawaii? Do you believe that every Hawaiian citizen who has an official copy of their birth certificate should be under suspicion of not being a citizen? Would this apply to everyone?

Should we take your birth certificate, and make sure that the paper is really from year you claim it was, that everything on it matches perfectly your family history and the standards for birth certificates at the time? After all, maybe you're in this country as a spy for neo-fascist groups? Maybe you're a communist disruptor, sowing discontent in the hope of overthrowing the government? The standard being applied to Obama's birth certificate has probably never applied to anyone else. After all, the guy has an official copy, and there are two birth announcements in Hawaiian newspapers. That to me is more than enough for beyond reasonable doubt.

Where is the FBI, NSA or CIA or any one of the security alphabet agencies when you need them.. call 1-800 tin foil, and let them know about all of this. While you are at it tell George, Cheney, Rove and the rest of the crew that somehow they missed this.. they will be embarassed

Patters, are you talking about factcheck.org?

That husband-and-wife team that do all their "research" at home on the 'Net?

Yeah, I think you are.

Ever heard of primary research, the kind the FBI would do for someone to receive a top-security clearance? It's been stated that Obama, had he not been elected, would never have qualified.

I suspect that that's a true statement.

And the statement that the lap dop media, which was in the tank for Obama in ways that have made me change my behavior (I stopped TV news watching and NPR listening, for example), has thoroughly vetted the obvious certificate of live birth forgery is laughable.

How credulous do you think we are?

Now Jerome Corsi--who does the kind of research the FBI does and not the team at factcheck.org--has shown the Social Security number Obama released belongs to Connecticut.

And in the void of the lap dog media's pusillanimity, has stepped Donald Trump, a product of the meritocratic world.

Unlike Obama, who is the biggest affirmative action baby in the history of the world to date.

Fact check is one (and I'm not sure what you're talking about because they physically examined the birth certificate). CNN is another. The social security claim is also bogus. All it means is that Obama's birth certificate application was mailed while he was on the East Coast, possibly on vacation, visiting family or friends, en route to his father, etc. The SS# back then was generated by the office that received the application.

Debunking the birther claim – CNN Political Ticker - CNN.com Blogs

Out of curiosity, since you hold Corsi in such high regard, do you agree that Bush should have been impeached, that McCain was getting funding from Al Qaida related groups, that MLK was a "shakedown artist," and that 9/11 is a coverup? Or do you simply believe any nut that serves your political agenda?

And again, given that the Supremes have never defined "natural born citizen," the birth certificate issue is moot. Further the fact that 14th amendment redefined blacks as full citizens even eliminates the argument that Obama can only be 3/5th of a citizen, no doubt a fallback argument for birthers.
