Barack Obama, Sarah Palin dogged by Internet birth rumors (see Chicago contort +twist facts)

Chicago Tribune ^ | 12-6-08 | Colin McMahon

You've heard the story: The birth is a sham, the official line a coverup.

There are no hospital records. The original birth certificate has never been produced. And this person who has talked of bringing honesty and transparency to the nation's highest offices is, in fact, a fraud.

But enough about Sarah Palin.

If you think the attack on Barack Obama's citizenship is the only fringe crusade going, check out what some bloggers are still saying about John McCain's former running mate.

They contend that Sarah Palin lied about the birth of her son Trig.

They are certain that the Down syndrome baby is actually the child of Palin's daughter Bristol or a family friend.

And while Palin's loss in the vice presidential race has turned wails of outrage into whispers of frustration, it has not stopped the conspiracy theorizing. Never mind that the Alaska governor returned home to pardon turkeys and Obama is preparing to take over the country

Apparently, he and Michellmybell are no longer "one of us."

Christmastime in Kailua is on Obama's agenda

Kailua no ka oi — at least when it comes to presidential retreats.

President-elect Barack Obama will return to the Windward Oahu neighborhood when he and his family spend a Christmastime vacation in Hawaii, according to one report.

The Obamas and the families of two or three friends will stay at a beachside villa with three multimillion-dollar homes, the Associated Press reported.

Each wraps around a lagoon-style swimming pool, with palm trees, grassy lawns and retractable glass walls for views of the white sand and windsurfers.

It is not the same large Kailua beachside home at which the Obamas stayed during his weeklong vacation in August before the Democratic National Convention.

This will be the future president's third trip to Oahu this year.

In late October, less than two weeks before the election, Obama spent about 22 hours in Honolulu visiting his dying grandmother, Madelyn Dunham. This month's trip reportedly will include a private family memorial for Dunham, who died Nov. 2.

Maybe something like this?

Oh, and Sarah released her medical records.
Um..no she didn't.

Hi sleuthie ... Merry Christmas to you and yours ... hugs!

Damm straight: lamestreams = useless and untrustworthy.

WE are the only reporting sources we can trust. We have a big job to do, and we can do it.

ROFL!

Sarah Palin had a bad rumour about a birth Barack Hussein Obama had a bad rumour about birth Sarah Palins’s rumour is false Therefore, Barack Hussein Obama’s rumour is false as well

Of course Trigg has COLB from the hospital.

How about the other one? They they unseal his COLB from Coast Hospital in Mombasa?

[SunkenCiv]

Never mind that the Alaska governor returned home to pardon turkeys and Obama is preparing to take over the country.

...y'know, since he's already taken over all mainstream media outlets...

Since we know we cant believe anything that comes from the POS-elect or his cronies, let’s get real about his previous hawaii trip. She was already dead when he made that trip, but the campaign didnt announce her death until the night before the election, for maximum effect.

He didnt go there for more than several days after it was announced she was on her deathbed- the reality is that when they announced “deathbed’ it was code for ‘dead”. Then he finally went, not to “visit” her, but to make arrangements for her burial/funeral, and while there, got the governor of hawaii to seal his BC from any release.

His version of that trip, as with his version of everything that comes out of his mouth, is a transparent manipulation of the truth for political reasons. He’s a Marxist- the ends justify the means.

This article represents the same old lefty "equivalance" game as so often played by the MSM acolytes.

Medical science tells us that a Down's Syndrome baby is many many times more likely to be born to a mother over 40 than to a teenage mother. So the chances of Trig Palin being born to Sarah's daughter, as compared to the chances of him being born to the governor, are minute.

Contrast that to the chances of Obama being born in Kenya, when he has produced no bona bide proof of birth elsewhere and both his paternal grandmother and the Kenyan ambassador to the US have stated that he was born there.

This Colin McMahon fellow is completely bankrupt of logic in his misguided attempt to be "even handed" about the two issues. He sounds like a recent product of dumbed down public school "education."

Nothern Cook County is generally conservative. Our Rep. is Republican Mark Kirk.

[sthguard]

What percentage of DuPage’s citizens are black?

[justiceseeker93]

The logic is even worse than that. There is a much higher probability, scientifically speaking, of the Obama rumor being true than the Palin rumor being true.

How freakin' stupid. Exactly!

Please see my post # 50.

Interesting spin from Colin, the wonderboy.

"The rumor campaign against Obama carries higher stakes than the one targeting Palin. But at their heart, they have a similar spirit and offer the same lessons."

*snip*

((Plaintiffs in 0 citizenship lawsuits take note))

"Obama was born to a foreign father, a Kenyan with a British passport and very dark skin. Though born in Hawaii, Obama lived in a predominantly Muslim country for a while with a stepfather who also was a foreigner. That makes him different from all the presidents who preceded him. But it does not make him any less American."

While Palin's claims to be a political maverick may be debatable, the way she handled her pregnancy with Trig was, indeed, iconoclastic. She kept the pregnancy secret for a long time.

She traveled to Texas while eight months pregnant. She completed a speech after her water broke and then, after consulting with her doctor, flew back to Alaska to give birth in a small regional hospital. Within a few days, Palin was back at work.

That behavior may strike many as odd. But it offers no proof that Palin fabricated the pregnancy."

Thanks, LucyT

When we start getting close to the truth, Obama flies off to Hawaii & Sarah Palin gets scrutinized.

Unbelievable.

PING.

[freekitty]

That’s part of their group thinking. To attack

“Colin McMahon is the Tribune’s South America correspondent, based in Buenos Aires.”

Are there any real requirements to get into journalism school?

These clowns make used car salesmen and child rapists look good.

[justiceseeker93]

If Palin lied about Trig ...

Doubt that she did. Age of the mother is the biggest risk factor for Down's syndrome. The chances of a Down's Syndrome child being born to a mother of Gov. Palin's age are many times greater than a Down's syndrome child being born to her teenage daughter. That's simply a medical fact, one apparently too difficult for an MSM lefty hack like Colin McMahon to grasp.

[justiceseeker93]

She was already dead when he made that trip ...

I'm certainly no fan of "Osama" Obama, but you will have to come up with some form of proof for that statement to fly.

If she were already dead, wouldn't it be logical for O to have attended the funeral.

[1COUNTER-MORTER-68]

I bet Trig has a BC that shows who his Mama and Papa are,,,

That’s more than O’Bammy the Basturd can say!!!(tic)...;0)
