There is no such thing as a “Birther Movement.”

It’s a fantasy.

... the "birthers" believe the President is not a U.S. citizen, despite some pretty strong evidence to the contrary.

What "pretty strong evidence"? All I've seen so far is Obama's COLB, and he's spent a ton of money keeping everyone from seeing his true birth certificate. A look at his true birth certificate would be "pretty strong evidence".

Pretty braindead article.

A larger portion of those who think that the certificate disbarrs Obama believe he held Kenyan citizenship most of his life - through college. And is therefore not natural born in the constitutional sense.

But then, thefe are a lot of freepers stupid enough to try to dodge this as well.

There would be no birther movement if BHO ended it with the unveiling of the long form. Instead of hiding it. What the heel is the problem anyways? I’ll show mine. Hell you can go right down to city hall and get a copy. If doesn’t have to show his ID why do I have to show mine anywhere?

It’s Barry’s fault. The good that will come out of all this is States taking responsibility for verifying eligibility. Congress can’t be counted on to do it. If Barry is eligible, it will come out, or he will run for reelection without being on the ballots of responsible states. Should he choose the latter course, ...well, he is a fraud. It’s Barry’s fault.

Now, the MSM is coming to the rescue for trying to keep the “birthers” over in the nutcase catagory.

[[”birthers” believe the President is not a U.S. citizen, despite some pretty strong evidence to the contrary.]]

Well this justy goes to show the ignroance of the writer- most birthers DO NOT questiuon whetehr obama is a citizen- they DO however question whether he is a ‘NATURAL BORN CITIZEN’- a compeltely different issue- and had the ignorant writer of the article investigated more carefully, he would have discovered this- our constitution clearly states that ONLY ‘Natural born citizens’ can becoem president or vice president-

Just another typical leftist hit job on the right that is devoid of facts- per usual

journalists are simply pissed off that Americans aren’t as stupid as these journalists try to make us out to be- they are pissed off that citizens know more about issues than they do- it’s a clear case of happy place envy- the ignorant always name-call when the public exposes journalist’s ignorance and their lack of journalistic duty

I have an even shorter History of the “Birther” movement:

1. 0bama didn’t release a long form birth certificate.
2. Everything else.

[[Told him I had to provide his b/c for every baseball and football team he ever played on since first grade but O has not provided his. An apolitical athlete, his comment was “how can you get elected president without showing your b/c?”. Even kids get this!!!]]

Tell him that when you are a democrat, you are above the law- you can do anythign you like, and the msm will back you up, cover up for you, attack anyone who questions you repeatedly, and obstruct justice for you every step of the way- heck- tell him that even the supreme court will cover for you by refusing to hear ligit cases agaisnt you if you’re a democrat- but also be sure to tell him that even htough you can get awasy with anythign you like here on earth, when judgement day comes, you will NOT get away with it because you will be judged by a TRUE objective judge who doesn’t use ideology to determine cases-

Grace Wyler has penned a deliberate misrepresentation - with the rather obvious goal of discrediting anyone who (quite rightly) wonders why it is that the President of the United States is reluctant to present his birth certificate (and, for that matter, other significant records) to the people who elected him to the nation’s highest office.

Is the “strong evidence” strong enough to qualify Obama for a job working behind a cash register at CVS?””

With the lack of proper evidence, Barry could not even play Little League.
