Why should the Obamunist be humble? He thinks he’s Jesus Christ after all.

To paraphrase this radical loon...

after all, half the population has an IQ of less than 100.

The irony is that is true and it is Obama's big voting base, he also has strong support in the 140+ IQ range too.....those who are supposed to know what's best for all of us.

I would like to hear more about this. He is acknowledged to have had a brilliant academic career, but where is the evidence?

Is there any paper trail? What did he get on his law boards? I would like to see his transcripts. Or would a straight A report hurt his street cred? Has he ever passed a course in science? Economics? Basic arithmetic?

We really need to implement a National Presidential Candidate Qualifying Exam, and make the results public.

“generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children (with mounting excitement) that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick...”

I’ve been a doctor for over 25 years. Nothing special about that, but I’d like to think that in many cases my staff and I along with fellow colleagues made a difference and maybe saved a life or two.

It’s interesting to know that June 3, 2008 was the day this country finally cared for the sick. Please tell me, what exactly were we doing before then?

When thinking about the Obama voters, a line by the late great George Carlin comes to mind: “Think about how dumb the ‘person of average intelligence’ is. And then remember, half of the population is dumber than that.”

George - was right on. Still say that 2/3 of Americans are brain dead. Just look at the cult like saps that follows OOOBBBAAAMMAAA!

Now Obama is a very bright man

I don't know why people think this. There is a difference between talent at reading a teleprompter and high intelligence.

I would say Obama is smart. Very bright, no. Very full of himself, absolutely.

Plotting new and nefarious ways to deny healthcare to 48 million people!

I beg to differ. It's a hell of a lot more special than being a community organizer and a whole lot of other things that some people do with their lives.

This an update. I’ve sent this info to Michelle Malkin and others including Hannity and Geraghty of NRO. I’ve also sent to the Daily Kos and Hillary’s website. I know there have other FRs working on this as well. Perhaps we can send this out to others in the media with the hope that someone picks up on it.

Dear Michelle,

I’ve researched Obama’s birth history over the past several days. As you know it is largely taken from his own auto-bio and has never been corroborated by anyone independently.

Here’s what I and others have found:

1. TWO HOSPITALS LISTED AS BEING WHERE OBAMA WAS BORN

I googled “Obama’s birthplace” and got the following:
From Wikipedia

( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama )

Obama was born on August 4, 1961, at the Kapiolani Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Obama, Sr., of Nyangoma-Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya, and Ann Dunham, of Wichita, Kansas.

COMMENT:This is different from what other sites list including Obama friendly sites. They state that OBAMA was born at Queen’s Medical Center.

( see:http://www.barackobamaismyhomeboy.com/biography )

ALSO: Kapiolani Hospital did not open until 1989 although the Hospital for women and children was open at the time.

This discrepancy in my mind is interesting BECAUSE THERE SHOULD BE NO DISCREPANCY.

2. NO RECORD OF BIRTH OR MARRIAGE OF PARENTS.

I searched via the pay investigative site Ancestry.com for Barry or Barack Obama, or Barry or Barack Dunham or Stanley Ann Dunham etc. and keyed in also Aug 4, 1961 and Hawaii, and Honolulu etc. and came up with no record of a birth or marriage. Others have checked this through similar but different searches and also found nothing.

3. BIRTH CERTIFICATE CLEARLY A FORGERY

The Birth Certificate posted on the Obama website and Daily Kos appears to be a forgery.

Please see: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2034411/posts

and

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2034476/posts

4. NO EYE WITNESSES OF BIRTH

There have been no eye witnesses of Obama’s birth from the hospital. No nurse or doctor coming forth to recall caring for the mother or child.

5. KENYAN RELATIVES HAVE TOLD REPORTERS THAT HE WAS BORN IN KENYA

It has been reported that Kenyan relatives initially had said that Obama was born there but are silent about this now.

Please see: http://alanpetersnewsbriefs.blogspot.com/2008/06/obamas-birth-circumstances-review.html

6. GRANDMOTHER IS KEPT AWAY FROM MEDIA

The grandmother has been kept away from the MSM perhaps because she knows the truth about Obama’s birth and parents marital status.

Please see: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2034644/posts

This man is running for the presidency of the United States. It seems far and proper that the public knows his birth history and pedigree.

"...that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick, and good jobs for the jobless.

Is it the 1930's again?

anti-christ?

neah...I suspect the anti-christ will be much smarter.
He’ll certainly have more in-depth knowledge of history.

Obama doesn’t have the smarts to pull that off.

RUSH: Sounds wonderful, right? To a lot of airheads, to a lot of dorks, to a lot of dunces this sounds just fabulous. "We began to provide care for the sick." We've got the best medical care in the world! "Good jobs for the jobless." The unemployment rate is 5%! Anybody not working in America today does not want to work. It's just that simple. "...when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal." Ladies and gentlemen, in order to protect the integrity and decorum of this program, I am going to step aside for a moment and bring aboard the Official Obama Criticizer: Bo Snerdley.



SNERDLEY: This is Bo Snerdley, the EIB Official Barack Criticizer, certified black enough to criticize -- and I have a message. Senator Obama in your victory speech last night you declared that this was America's moment that somehow now, if we are willing to work for it -- fight for it, believe in it -- we're all going to look back someday and realize, this was the moment that we began to care for the sick, to have jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans would begin to slow and our planet would begin to heal. This was the moment we came together to remake this great nation. That's what you said. Excuse me, sir. What country have you been living in? Americans have been working hard since there was America! It's that work that made this the world's lone superpower, that work that built a nation that is the envy of the world. And what is this business about the oceans begin to slow? What does that mean? In fact, what do you mean? This is insulting, sir! America is great; it was great before you stepped on the scene. The thing that frightens us, sir, is that you are hell-bent on destroying what is great in the name of liberalism.

Now, a translation for the EIB brothers and sisters in the 'hood: My brutha, O! Big ups on your win, yo. You the big dog now, but yo, listen up, what's up with that speech, bro? Check it out. You running for president or you running to become black Moses, yo? You going to all day like, you know, step on the scene, the world, the ocean's going to part, then start slowing down? Yo, that sounds a little fishy to me, yo. And the joblessness? You want to get jobs for people, yo? Doing what? But if you throwin' down jobs I got a few peeps to hit you up with, brothers and sisters looking for jobs out there better paying money, Rezko, yo? Look, I got news for you, most of us even the typical white people, yo, we already care for sick people -- and dig this, bro. What kind of policy you holding back that can heal the planet? Especially since it's not sick. Between you and me, yo, the earf isn't sick, doesn't really need to be healed. Yo, bro, you need to chill, you know? You're not God, despite yo press coverage.

That concludes our statement.

RUSH: The Official Obama Criticizer, Bo Snerdley.

The Official Obama Criticizer, Bo Snerdley.

Thanks for posting James G.'s (aka, Bo Snerdley) comments.

I listened to James when he left his job with Rush and had his own Internet radio talk show, with an interactive chat room. That was 1998-99, at TalkSpot.com. He is/was an excellent host. The interactive chat room for the host, producer, and audience was a great format. Wish he still had it.
