Congressman Mike Castle's Townhall Meeting Attracts Anger Over Obama's Birth Certificate (video)
Conservative Wisdom ^ | 7/20/09 | staff

Posted on 07/20/2009 8:27:48 AM PDT by pissant

The campaign to make Obama produce an official long certificate is stirring up Americans all over the country demanding that Obama prove that he truly is an American citizen. Listen to what happened at a recent town hall meeting with Republican Congressman Mike Castle (DE)concerning the Obama birth certificate, and listen to this pansy Congressman deal with his constituents. This Congressman better be worried about his job in 2010 if this is the best answer he has, which is similar to an answer Roy Blunt gave me. Why are Republicans protecting Obama in this matter?

I’m looking forward to what may come of this.

I would “drop it” as well...but, the next question is how and why so many in power, carried the water for so long? Too many have fallen into lockstep to protect one man, and I have to ask why? Why were the responsibilities of a free press, and the Constitutional adherence of our elected officials were all waived to bring and keep one man in power?

That absolutely needs to be addressed going forward. The FEC and ALL the states’ attorney’s general need to REQUIRE proof of eligibility. The fact they have not for all these years is criminal.

there is something about his long form that he and his allies have spent significant effort hiding

So, let's out-flank the media and ask the question as you have formed it? Take a position of "the foregone conclusion" (ref: Gloabl Warming science).

"What is the "transparent" President hiding in his BC?"

The “birth certificate” issue is tangential. If it were produced I, personally, would “trust but verify”. My point is, however, that the certificate itself is irrelevant. Barry Soetoro is the son of a British subject. He lacks “singular allegiance” to the United States of America. The only citizens excused from this requirement were those living at the time of the signing of Constitution. Accepting Mr. Obama as POTUS opens the door for any foreign despot (Putin, Ahmadinejad, Kim Jong-il, etc.) to father a child in America and purchase (usurp) the leadership of the United States for that child in due time. The Founders took precautions against that possibility, and we would be wise to enforce them.

Any good marxist will tell you, the will of the people trumps any existing law. Elections are not to be overturned.

Castle is a tool. He has never done anything but gubment. He is a koolaid drinker who lives at the public trough.

Whoever this lady was ...power to her!

Castle was very confused about the pledge of allegance. He just didn’t know what to do.

We wouldn’t hire these people to do a job for us why should they be hired to represent us?

Unfortunately, the Usurper can try to lay this to “rest” with a fake birth certificate, which he could have “verified” by his pandering court, and we would be nowhere. An alternate way to go about this is to press the argument that, because his father was not an American, and his mother was a minor, he is not a natural born citizen no matter where he was born. That argument relies upon well known facts which cannot be denied, faked, or covered up like a mere paper document. I'm not sure that wouldn't be vulnerable to a “living constitution” dis-interpretation, however.

Glad to see people are mad enough to demand answers. This guy is NOT an American!

Without even listening to the tape, I know that Castle NEVER answers a question. He’s one of those entitled elites that never had to work a day in his life and constantly ignores the people - until election time.

After his cap and trade betrayal, I informed Republican Headquarters that he does not get my vote - even if a dead dog is running against him.

When this finally “breaks” and comes out mainstream...it will I believe, rock everything. Not just the Constitutional/government upheaval (what did Biden know, and when did he know it?) But it will change (forever) media. THEY (print, TV, radio) all let us (the country) down. Who kept this alive? Who is correcting this malfeasance? The blogosphere. Who will ever trust media again, when THEY were part of the cover up from the start of the Obama Coronation process?

Maybe that explains his total capitulation to Putin.

The thought has crossed my mind. They have been quite arrogant and dismissive of him. As have the Chinese. And even Sarkozy (who may have his own sources) I would expect the Brits know the truth, but that "Uriah Heep wannabe" Gordon Brown would have it stifled in the interest of trying to maintain US political stability.

Too bad Mossad doesn't have a copy. His attitude toward Israel might be lot different.

At this stage of the game, if he did produce a birth certificate, would everyone believe it to be authentic?

First, all an Hawaiian birth certificate, if it exists, would establish is that Obama is a citizen. The Constitution requires more. It requires that he be a natural-born citizen. This is a phrase that had a very specific meaning to the Framers and that is that his parents had to be citizens.

Second, if Obama merely "produces" this birth certificate and shows it to Katie Couric, allows this RINO Congressman to inspect it, or even posts another jpeg image on the internet, I wouldn't accept the proffer. Obama has already shown himself to be deceptive and untrustworthy. The only "production" I would accept is if he waived his Hawaiian right to privacy and authorized the government there to sell raised seal certified copies at their usual fee to anyone who requests them. Then maybe three months after the first such copies have been delivered to random citizens, and no reasonable claims of fraud (ala Polarik) have arisen, then I would probably accept it. It ain't gonna happen.

If he were born in Hawaii, wouldn’t that make him natural-born?

Can just anyone buy someone else’s birth certificate?

There is not one scintilla of difference between Republicans and Democrats in the Congress today except some have an "R" after their name and some have a "D". Most of them believe that they are now members of an exclusive club and, if they don't support one another, they could become the next target of our wrath!!

Gotta news flash for them . . . . !!!

No. If you are an athlete, are you automatically a natural-born athlete? See this thread with the Oxford English Dictionary history of the usage of this phrase; and do as they suggest and compare with the the history for the phrase native-born to highlight the differences.
