Conservatives, embittered by the election debacle, are on the internet in force threatening jihad on BHO over the apparent defects in his citizenship. For them, it is payback time. For eight years, the American Left wrongfully undermined President Bush by arguing ad nauseum that he stole the 2000 election. They hurt the party by doing so, and conservatives who undermine the legitimacy of BHOs election will end up hurting the nation.

What is the long-form certificate? Why doesn’t anyone pursue different means of verifying his birth place?
Kitty, Kitty, Bang Bang!!
Is that your `watchdog’? It looks like he’s winding himself up...
We either have a Constitution or not . . .
Molon Labe!
Just trying to make it difficult for the collectivist-progressives.
The US Constitution does not grant the right to others’ property or talents. It acknowledges the God given right to pursue your own life, liberty and happiness as your talents allow.
Conservatives will never give up the ‘Rule of Law’ as prescribed by the US Constitution.
Our Constitution is very clear regarding the qualifications for becoming President of the United States. If you're not a natural born citizen, you're not qualified to be President. It says so in article two.
And to go and say we need to put this aside and stand behind Hussien is dumb, stupid and idiotic. If Obama wants to put this issue to rest, he needs to show his birth certificate. Whether anyone likes it being said or not this issue is not going away.
And another thing, to all the obamabots out there. Obama may be YOUR President, but he's NOT my president. You don't get to decide who my President is and who isn't. MY President is leaving office on January 20th of next year. I just hope and pray our nation survives this Obamanation issue.
BTW, World Net Daily has a petition ongoing regarding this issue. I've signed it.
Regards......
I dunno how I can help you Stuart...there's plenty of circumstantial evidence that's been posted here on FR.
Obama couldn't become a F.B.I. agent...that much I know..based on his admitted drug usage.
Plenty of loop-holes in providing "Birth Certificates" to gain whatever.
Naw....you are on the list. Sorry.
There have been instances of folks investigating the claims of birth in Kenya. There are even reports that officials in Kenya have erected a monument to Obama's birth there. His paternal grandmother has also stated she witnessed his birth in a Mombassa hospital.
There is investigation ongoing at many levels.
This is my simple question, and it has been asked by many folks in different words; "Why lawyer up, when you can pony up?" Why, in the name of puting this issue to rest, doesn't Obama produce this document? His unwillingness to do so furthers the concern that many of us have. Instead, he's fought the release of this form at every step. He's spent thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars, to fight it.
Why?
Your contempt for the Constitution is a bright, vibrant commie red.
I had a more in-depth background check done on me prior to my enlistment at age 18 than Obama's had since he became a public figure.
OK, I’ll put you on the list I have so they will balance.
This is not like 2000! there was no doubt that Al Gore was native-born, native parents, no question. This is a Constitutional question. Have any of our detractors even considered how 0bama has continuously practiced deceit all along? Concealing about every record pertinent to his life, foremost his BC, nearly 1 mil to lawyers to protect himself from scrutiny, the flying trip to HI & ordering BC sealed, what is investigating & taking this to the High Court? This is still our country and our laws!
How would I know? I’m just suggesting another way of verifying his birth place that the state of Hawaii couldn’t influence.
Me too, I’ve had a clearance for over 30yrs, mil and civ. That is why I am asking if anyone knows if he had a clearance.
With all due respect to anyone who espouses this line of thought, conservatives cannot undermine the legitimacy of the election - either the election is legitimate or it is not. If Obama cannot show he is eligible, he has himself caused the election to at the very least APPEAR illegitimate.
To not explore the contradictions and lack of evidence in this instance is to shred the underpinnings of our Republic - the constitution itself. Either we are a nation of laws, or we are the personal cult of one man who is adjudged to be above the law. Which shall we choose?
If Obama can show he is eligible, then he becomes President, whether or not he is accepted by the political right. If the right allows him to ascend to that office without settling the constitutional issue, we will have “assumed the position” while Obama assumes his.
Finally, with respect to endangering the nation, it must be recognized that abrogation of the foundational law of this nation is the most dangerous course of action any of us can undertake. I do not mean that every nuance or slant of the eligibility issue should be fought dishonestly, but rather that legitimate proof be elicited to show that Obama can be President - whether we like his assumption of power or not. For good men to do nothing is to promote the success of evil, after all.
The “well known” conservative, but one who does not think the Constitution worth conserving.
We disagree. The only path will be to give an initial victory that will not clinch the matter but delay it in the hope that invalidation can become “unthinkable.”
I don't think so. He's not held a job that required it.
Also, I don't think that elected officials are required to have a security clearance, but I'm not certain on that and will look into it.
