Hey, hasn’t he been confused when his birthday was on a previous occassion? I could swear there was something. Maybe he has so many different dates and places that he is confused.

No, he was three or four months old—in his mother’s womb. He’s admitting that there’s life before birth and that abortion stops a beating heart. ;-)

Thanks, Lilpug15.

"I'm grateful that President Ortega did not blame me for things that happened when I was three months old."

Actually, the president misspoke on the sequence of events in Cuba. The invasion of CIA-trained rebels at the Bay of Pigs in Cuba occurred in April 1961. Obama was born August 4, 1961.

Misspoke? Freudian Slip? Early Alzheimers disease?

How often does one forget their date of birth?

*shrug* It’s not like he has a birth certificate to remind him...

He may have been born three months prior to the Bay of Pigs. It would be a more plausible timeline for his mother’s travels than the fiction being media spittled currently.

Maybe they use a different calendar in Kenya.

Your point is well made. And I think it is no mystery at all why Obama doesn’t feel that he “represents” you — because he actually probably doesn’t. Not according to your Constitution’s rules, anyrate.

This business about his Birth Certificate is well beyond a joke. It is inconceivable that the world’s most powerful Nation has a sitting President who refuses to prove that he is properly Constitutionally eligible to hold office.

It would never happen here in New Zealand: we wouldn’t allow our Prime Minister to do that. No way. We’d be very polite about the way we asked, but there would be no question of the Prime Minister saying “no” and making it stick. We’d merely ask again, this time a little less gently.

It couldn’t happen in Canada, either: the last time a Prime Minister got uppity with the Canadians his government fell for a resounding defeat in the next election, from the largest majority in Canadian history to merely two seats. Not even enough to receive government funding.

It couldn’t happen in France, either: they would riot for sure. They would build barricades and hold a general strike. The French know how to express their displeasure properly.

Asking to see a Birth Certificate — a real one, not a forged one — is a reasonable request. I had to produce my kids’ birth certificates to open bank accounts for them: it is a normal thing to be asked, and there is no reason on God’s green earth for non-compliance. It isn’t a State Secret, it isn’t even a Secret of the Freemasons for which bloodcurdling oaths are taken. It’s just a “can I please see some ID?” sort of question.

You Yanks really must get your act together. Refuse any more refusals, and don’t take “No” for an answer. Don’t be put off by being called “Birthers” — as if that’s any conclusive argument one way or another. Have a tax revolt, or a general strike, or something — assuming you can’t get your Courts to behave themselves properly.

You really do need to see a Birth Certificate. And any other relevant documentation. The joke is now no longer funny, and the need is rather pressing and urgent.

He is making people laugh at America. Foreign people. Bad ones.

BTTT. That was well said.

Just so they get it right a the forged birth certificate the CIA is making for him.

So, did he 'misspeak' or was he really born in February?

In light of the Kenyan Clown's refusal to provide proof of his eligibility to serve in the office, one has to wonder if this was merely stupidity.

The overwhelming odds are that it was merely a typical Obama blunder (like his unforgettable "57 states" idiocy), perhaps occasioned by one glass too many, but, nonetheless, it's simply not behavior that one expects from a president in a public forum. He cannot even place his own birthday relative to major world events that occurred in the same year?

Unless they had to lie about it for a very long time.

I knew someone who doctored her daughter's birth certificate so she could start public kindergarten earlier. The kid was programmed to give the false birthday date to anyone who asked.

He’s inadvertently making the point that he is an ignorant fool, a liar, and hates America and loves communists and dictators.

And the “don’t blame me” thing means that the US is evil and hateful but he will be a nicey nice friend to commies and dictators.

But all us white people are guitly for what happened to black slaves 200 years ago even if our ancestors weren’t even in the US then, and all the slaves who were injured are dead and gone.

I’m afraid it’s none of the above! Zero is a zero in history. He mixed up between the 60's Bay of Pigs in Cuba and the 80's Contras in Nicaragua. He was months old in the former and in his twenties in the latter!

The Harvard graduate thinks of "what happened THERE in South America" is the SAME! Exactly like the ignoramus he is.

That tells you something about the self-proclaimed superior intellect and knowledge of the liberal elite!

Well, he also made a similar slip when he said something about his parents being inspired by the march in Selma.

As it happens, I DON’T believe that he is even an American, let alone natural born. But I think these little discrepancies prove little. He lies for convenience all the time, and this sounds very much like his excuse for not being involved in Bill Ayres’ bombing activities, since he was only a few years old at the time.

What IS disgusting is that he does not respond to this petty dictator by pointing out that Castro was a brutal Communist tyrant who has impoverished Cuba for a lifetime. Instead, he pretty much grants the point that the US was guilty, and says in effect, “Don’t blame me, personally. America was guilty, but it’s not MY fault!”

“I wonder when/if Obama ever intends to stop apologizing for America.”

This morning there was a BBC Science and Technology report on the radio and according to the report, America has really hurt the world for our Christian values, our reluctance to adopt global warming policies and our opposition to embryonic stem cell research. The global apologizing, led by our very own President, has only just begun. Wait till we hear we’re getting what we deserve in a couple of years when no one can afford to drive to the corner store. It’s gonna be great! /s

Thanks for the ping, LucyT.

He knows EXACTLY when and where he was born. WE’RE the ones who don’t know.
