You are correct. If we can weaken P-BO by focusing on his Socialist, Saul Alinsky, Cloward-Piven plan of destruction then and only then will documentation be forthcoming. Until then we are just pathetic gadflies.

Begin the bandwidth-wasting rants.....Now!

Obama is NOT legit.

He won't allow his college record, medical records or birth certificate to be seen. Instead ALL are off limits and sealed. Now why is that? It's because he is NOT legit. THAT is an ISSUE that was never resolved. It's still on the table.

It's the same old thing ... like the gay argument .. you're supposed to believe that is perfectly normal - even though it has been shown people are NOT born that way and there is NO “gay gene”. According to liberals you're supposed to IGNORE THAT TOO and give them the same rights as NORMAL heterosexuals.

You have to address the ROOT problem in both situations. “Gays” are NOT normal and don't deserve elevated rights. Obama is NOT a U.S. citizen. Obama is a fraud! He has a LEGAL obligation to PROVE he is who he says he is. We can't keep glossing over that. Or should our requirements for President NOT MATTER? Like not enforcing our EXISITING IMMIGRATION LAWS? Yes, it is still ILLEGAL for ILLEGALS to be here. Ir’s hard to believe but the laws are on the books and we do NOT enforse our ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION LAWS!

How long will we keep winking at our own laws designed to protect us from people like OBAMA? HOW DAM LONG will this go on? Obama is a LYING FRAUD? Get him the hell out of the position. Someone with some brass ones needs to STEP UP. We have CRIMINALS yes CRIMINALS running our country. They are just like Obama - they don't pay their taxes and they strong arm people into submission. THIS is what happens when LAWS and SHAME aren't present. These people are EVIL. According to their followers, those against health care are a figment of your imagination and those that oppose it are “Nazis”.

Wake up shepple. Enforce out laws and we won't have CRIMINALS running our government and making us a laughing stock of the world. I am stunned at the pscho babble this administration comes out with to make YOU feel like you are INSANE for disagreeing with them - it's just the opposite - THEY ARE EVIL.

It has been frustrating to see my fellow-Freepers waste so much time and effort arguing that Obama isn't a legitimate president. He is and no amount of wishful thinking to the contrary will change that fact.

Oh yeah? Prove it!

but what happens if he whips it out and gee we have wasted all this time on nothing

No, we will have found out the truth and perhaps set up a situation in which this cannot happen again. Yes, we will suffer some taunts for awhile but nothing serious IMO.

I am not disagreeing with that. The problem is the people who ran against 0 didn’t make it an issue.

There is no conspiracy.

Focusing on the issues and requiring transparency are not mutually exclusive.

Not asking questions would be irrational.

Not upholding the Constitution would be irrational.

Giving in to fear and intimidation would be rational.

Relying on a Salon set of talking points would be irrational.

Not holding politicians accountable would be irrational.

What has become of us? I know some conservatives tend to lean towards mindless conspiracy theories but this is getting ridiculous. Free Republic is a forum where conservative issues are discussed, hopefully rationally but always passionately. I remember when we all laughed at the conspiracy theories emanating from the liberals and leftists (i.e., 9-11 was an inside job) and now the same type of lunacy has infected this forum. Time to stop the birther distraction and focus on the real issue of saving the Republic.

Us? The same? Distraction? Real Issue?

I must say Edward Watson that you are a hypocrite of the first order.

You complain and complain that the BC issue is a "distraction" and that we should just "shut up" about it, and yet I find you posting hundreds and hundreds of posts on these threads and even starting your own threads to discuss this issue over and over and over and over and over again and again and again and again.

It is clear to me that if anyone is obsessed about this issue, it is YOU.

If you think it is a distraction, then get the hell off these threads so that they won't take up so much bandwidth.

If you don't think this issue is worthy of discussion, then quit discussing it!

IOW, practice what you preach.

The overall issue to consider is will the mass of conservative activists be distracted by many problems with the Obama Presidency and programs being ardently raised in a repeated manner or will the Obama administration be distracted in dealing with a large number of challenges?

That is what you are saying — focus on the few issues that you consider most important.

However I believe the marxists are prepared and not only prepared but in control of the media, the educational system and many organization that should be the public’s tools to root out his destruction of the nation and that they must be overwhelmed to be defeated.

In the computer age, we call it buffer overload. The system the leftists have in place can handle the easy stuff such as oposition to “every person’s RIGHT to healthcare” but they can’t handle the unexpected challenge.

Let the birthers be. Its not what my talents at rhetoric are best suited for, but I will fight those battles without regard for action on my flank.

I have to agree.

I don’t see any feasible or reasonable way that The Dali Obama was born anywhere else. Why would a grad student (S. Ann Dunham) travel 10,000 miles to give birth in a third world hell-hole rather than a civilized, modern country?
Even the most dead ender of the hate America crowd wouldn’t be likely to do this.

Obama hasn’t released his birth certificate because:
1. He’s a liberal.
a. Liberals, by necessity, try to hide, twist, obfuscate everything because no one would ever support their policies if they knew what they were.
b. This carries on to all parts of their actions, it’s the default position to “cover up”.
2. He realizes that this makes his opposition look like fevered moonbats.
a. This has no traction with the American public due to it’s lack of plausibility.
b. We (ALL OF US) get lumped in with folks that think the CIA took down the buildings on 9-11.

Andrew McCarthy put it well when he said that we’ve elected a man based on his character and nothing else, yet he keeps so much of his past under wraps. That should be cause for concern, but it’s not just his birth certificate, it’s his transcripts, his writings, etc.

If folks want to continue down this road, fine, there’s nothing I can or will do to stop them. Just realize that you’re destroying our credibility in the court of public opinion, where credibility is everything.

Maybe the founders knew that split loyalties could create the disaster that HE is, they included the “Natural Born” provision to spare us the grief!

why are they spending millions of dollars trying to convince people of his legitimacy when they could simply show us a real birth certificate. That is irrational behavior. They are acting guilty.Sorry,as long as they are acting irrationally and guiltily, I am going to want to know why.It is not good enough to say just move on.

Define “Natural Born Citizen”, and provide a legal citation.

The substantial female has not yodeled on this issue by any means until all the facts are in, or released, so it is way to early to be making these broad proclamations.

How very unFReeperish of you.

At least you didn't pimp your buddy Mitt this time.

Well, yet...
