In the world of political hypocrisy, Barack Obama and other Democrats have been attacking Mitt Romney for not releasing more of his federal income tax returns than he has. Ironically, both Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, who have been quite vocal on the topic, refuse to release any of their tax returns.
Coming to Romney’s defense, Donald Trump is advocating that Romney and the rest of the GOP should demand to see Obama’s records before Romney should release any more of his. Trump is not referring to Obama’s tax returns but to his birth and college records.
Trump’s comments were made earlier this week after the revealing press conference with Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio and Mike Zullo, the lead investigator for the Cold Case Posse investigation into Obama’s birth certificate. On Tuesday, Arpaio and Zullo released additional information that seems to clearly prove that the birth certificate presented by the White House for Barack Obama was a forgery and that the act of presenting it constitutes fraud.
In response to the press conference, Trump told Sean Hannity that:
“The fact is Sheriff Arpaio is, in my opinion, correct. Nobody was ever in the hospital by the name of his mother … and a lot of crazy things.”
“If that were a conservative, let’s say a George Bush or somebody, he would have been out of office already.”
“Nobody has more sealed records than this president. So many of his applications … are sealed. He spent $3 million to keep everything sealed. You can’t find out anything about his college. I’m not talking about his marks. I’m talking about his application. It would be so interesting to see.”
If you go searching for Obama’s college records, you will quickly discover that all of his records from Occidental College, Columbia University and Harvard law School have all been sealed. If Trump is right in that Obama has spent $3 million sealing all of his records, it really pours fuel of the fires of conspiracy and makes one wonder what is so damaging in those records to warrant such extreme measures be taken to protect them.
The only thing I can think of that Obama would be so concerned about would be his place of birth listed on his college applications. Is it possible that these documents list someplace other than Hawaii as his place of birth? Is it possible that they, like New York publisher Acton and Dystel, list one Barack Hussein Obama as being born in Kenya?
I just wish we had at least one member of Congress with the courage to investigate Obama’s records and even issue a congressional subpoena for those records to see what the president is so afraid of revealing. But alas, it seems that they don’t care or have been too intimidated by the powers behind Obama that they are very afraid of launching such an investigation.
In the meantime, what many of us believe to be the greatest fraud in the history of mankind will continue to get away with the crime of the millennia.
Obama was born in Kenya, when it was politically advantageous for him.
When it became an obstacle for his placement in the white house, they had to change that narative.
Now they are busy changing history, and have been since 2007.
Real interesting when images from the “way back machine” show web pages or literature, or other documents that conflicts with the new “story”. They always say that the “person” made a mistake.
Whole lot of mistakes going on around here!!!!!
Were I Romney, I’d tell the msm that I’ll release my tax records when Obama releases his university applications, transcripts, foreign travel history, and social security information. That should have been done in ‘08, but better late than never.
Because he doesn’t have any?
I’m parTICularly puzzled as to the Harvard Law records. Here’s why.
To earn a Magna Cum Laude, a graduate had to have grades in the top 10% of the class (BELOW any who qualify for SUMMA cum laude, which requires nearly perfect grades).
Point being, top grades, right? Nothing at ALL to hide?
Unless, well, what? Unless Obama took wacky left-wing courses? Or maybe AT HARVARD there is nothing to hide, but Obama is concerned that he DOES have something to hide from Occidental/ Columbia (and that releasing the Harvard records alone would seem suspicious).
Crummy grades aren't reason enough?
Somebody who presents himself as an intellectual and a great mind isn't going to want people to find out most of his college marks were "C"s.
And if a politician can get away without revealing information about himself or herself, they won't divulge the information. The problem for most of them is that they can't get away with it.
Adlai Stevenson also kept his college grades under wraps. Was that because Stevenson, the darling of the intellectuals, pretty much failed out of law school -- or because he gave his birth place as Kenya or Indonesia?
Well if more information was found, more lies would also be found...
Simply incredible given that if 0bama hadn't underhandedly UNSEALED the divorce records of two opponents, he wouldn't have ever been the junior Senator from Illinois.
May justice be done.
Speculation is that young Barry entered Occidental College as a foreign student with a passport from Indonesia as documentation. He was legally adopted by Lolo Soetoro, hubby of babymama, Stanley Ann.
Cause the Kenyian is dumber than a box of rocks.
“The only thing I can think of that Obama would be so concerned about would be his place of birth listed on his college applications.”
I’d almost be more interested in seeing who picked up the tab for his (alleged) education. They’re expensive schools. His family wasn’t wealthy, so they couldn’t have paid. He is, in a word, STUPID, so he couldn’t have qualified for a scholarship. WHO THE HELL PAID? I’m sure his financial records are sealed as tightly as his applications and grades.
Obama’s grades are probably not the problem, even though they are most likely nothing compared to Romney and his achievements.
If there is one thing we know for certain about Obama, it is that he is a liar and a fraud. His records must show that.
But if I was informed correctly, students take the tough "black letter law" courses in the first year. In the second and third year there's more room for airy electives.
Somebody who is really going for expertise in corporate or criminal law and takes demanding, fact-based courses, will usually get worse grades than someone who takes political theory courses -- and we know that Obama took theory courses.
Regardless of where he was REALLY born, 0bama wouldn’t have been able to get foreign aid had ‘Kenya’ not appeared in his college application.. It’s probably the case that ‘Kenya’ is his place of birth in his records.
I think he won’t release the grade records, not because of the meaningless grades themselves (most grades are inflated), but the transcript will give address and citizenship info that will prove the American eople have duped themselves.
I believe if one really dug into it...he had some faked-up high school records that he used to get into Occidental and use a scholarship of some type. I think two years later....he repeats the fake-up records of Occidental....to get into Columbia University. There’s likely another scholarship at Columbia which helps at this point. He admits at one point that he really screwed round at Occidental and avoids the grades topic. The problem here...if you had “D” level grades for classes at Occidental...then Columbia would NOT accept those as part of the transfer....he’d have to repeat the classes under normal conditions.
Well...count the months....there is absolutely no repeat of any semesters, and he leaves on schedule. The only way to avoid repeating classes....is to ensure faked transcripts.
My guess is that he even faked his citizenship along the way....to help get scholarships....so he pretended he wasn’t an American citizen...while he was. Up until the last decade....you could fake out almost every university in the US. Today? I doubt that you’d have that much luck. Someone would ask stupid questions.
I know it was said that Eisenhower was a much more voracious reader than was the IL Stevenson.
I think he is embarrased of his grades LOL!
