Here is video from MSNBC's Hardball tonight, where Chris Matthews had an extensive debate with conservative talk show host G. Gordon Liddy about the Obama Birth Certificate Controversy. Liddy said Obama can put the whole thing to rest by simply showing his "Original Birth Certificate."
Matthews produced a copy of his "Certificate of Live Birth" saying he was born in Honolulu, Hawaii. It does not say what hospital he was born in. Liddy claims there is a sworn statement from Obama's step-grandmother saying she witnessed him being born in Mombasa, Kenya. Liddy maintained the "Certificate of Live Birth" is not sufficient - that only the "Original Birth Certificate" will prove his citizenship.
Matthews pressed Liddy relentlessly, even saying that if Liddy is correct, then Obama necessarily is an "illegal alien" and should be "picked up." Liddy at times seemed at a loss for words and confused in the face of Matthews' relentless questioning (Liddy is 78 years old). Of course, as always when a conservative is on air with Matthews, he had another liberal there to help gang up on Liddy.
It is amazing to me that liberal outlets like MSNBC continue to air segments on this issue. I don't know if that means they are truly worried about it, or that they believe it hurts the GOP and conservatives to talk about the issue. But the chatter about it on Television certainly seems to be growing. . . . . (Watch Video)

Let’s say the White House releases the “Original Birth Certificate.” Will that close the door on this issue?
Oh dear, this is simply not going away.
And all the outraged denunciation by the MSM is only raising the interest level.
I loved when Liddy asked Hissy what hospital Obama was born in. The reaction was priceless.
This is where you bet Chrissie Tingle that the ‘birth certificate’ he waves around is not a birth certificate, nor a copy of one. Bet him $1,000,000. He WILL back down.

“...then Obama necessarily is an “illegal alien” and should be “picked up.”
if you say so Chrissy
Not if he’ll show COLB he was born in Mombasa! :-)
“It is amazing to me that liberal outlets like MSNBC continue to air segments on this issue. “
****
It’s amazing to me that anyone still watches MSNBC.
I’m lucky. Our local cable company put the channel in a different tier which I don’t have. I can’t even stumble upon MSNBC by accident. Hallelujah!
And all the outraged denunciation by the MSM is only raising the interest level.
Which makes me think this is a trap for talk radio to set up the fairness doctrine. Regardless whether or not it is, Obama caused this by spending close to a MILL trying to hide his records.
I hope I’m wrong.
“...then Obama necessarily is an “illegal alien” and should be “picked up.”
Chrissie’s leg is going to be limp when the Kenyan Imposter is removed from office.
Among other things, it depends on how badly it is photo shopped. That "live birth" thing could have been done with a crayon & come out more realistic.
Based on the way Crissie usually reacts to Democrats in the room, I don't think it will be his leg that goes limp...
I don't know if writers are intentionally obfuscating this issue or not, but whatever Matthews was waving around on his show, you can be absolutely certain that it was NOT the Hawaiian "Certificate of Live Birth," because THAT is the document Obama will not allow released.
What Matthews was actually waving around, and this could be verified by actually READING the Title of the document, is the "CERTIFICATION" of Live Birth", a lousy, poor, substitute for the real thing, that is sometimes used in lieu of a REAL birth certificate for inconsequential purposes, like enrolling in kindergarten.
For me even if Obama was to release the vaul copy of his birth certificate it would not close the issue.
I want the Court to rule on the definition of the “natural born citizen” clause of the Constitution.
He does not have two parents who are both American citizens. His father was Kenyan. He himself admitted to having duel citizenship. Obama was also most probally adopted by Leo Soetoro and made an Indonesian citizen growing up. The Court should hear this case and rule on the meaning of the “natural born citizen” clause of the Constitution. Obama should stop fighting all of the lawsuits and submit to discovery.
Grannies don’t lie.
I think I saw that their viewership averages 3.
We need that birth certificate O.Grannies don’t lie do they O?
I definitely think he is hiding something but this quote has got me scratching my head :
Obama’s step-grandmother saying she witnessed him being born in Mombasa, Kenya.
I’m working through the family tree that has your step grandmother present at your birth. Thats just weird.
