Five weeks after the state of Hawaii vouched for the authenticity of President-elect Barack Obama's birth certificate, the controversy over allegations that Obama is not eligible to take office next month has reached the Supreme Court,

An honest, but MEANINGLESS statement since you can have an "authentic" Hawaiian birth certificate that states that you are absolutely NOT a "natural born citizen"

HI verified that they had a long form in their vault but did not say if it shows birth in HI or other nation.

Barack Obama admits he was born with dual citizenship since his claimed father was a British subject who registered him in Kenay on the same issue. Dual citizenship at birth because of his father means Obama was not a natural born citizen, though he is a citizen. His naturalization is by default when his British citizenry expired. BUT his adopting father made him an Indoensian citizen. AND we need to see his entry documents and funding request documents from colleges along with his passport registration used in 1981, to determine if he gamed his dual citizenship presenting himself as other than a strictly natural born citizen. His Kenayn father did so when was born, wherever he was born, but did Barack use that ambiquity and thus disqualify himself by Constitutional stipulation for eligibility?

Did anyone see the program on FOX this morning with Liz Trotta and Eric Shawn? They were talking about the appointments of 0bama and that the conservatives are all getting on board with 0bama so they could stay in the game or keep jobs or whatever..this was more or less Liz Trotta’s view...to which Eric Shawn replied that if you read some of the blogs like Freerepublic ( and one other I didnt catch) these folks are still furious over the birth certificate issue and other matters so they are not all on board...

In any case, “President-Alleged” has a nice ring to it and people need to start using it.

I think the article was factually accurate. Hawaii did verify that a birth certificate exists. They did not say anything about the contents of that birth certificate.

Yes, but it's misleading.

Either they are liars or they don’t know what they are talking about. Hawaii didn’t verify the birth certificate.
::::::::::
They are liars. And there is no Birth Certificate, per se. There would have been ONLY a COLB (Certificate of Live Birth). The one(s) presented so far have been proven to be frauds by experts.

The fight is unusual because it thrives outside the so-called mainstream media, far beyond the oak-paneled offices of $700-an-hour lawyers and a world away from the 535 individuals whose surnames are preceded by Representative or Senator.

This time, America wants to see it.

” On mainstream talk radio, it’s not a big deal right now. I think it’s run its course.”

Limbaugh , Hannity, Ingraham and Levin et al have refused to touch this ,
so apparently “ it’s not a big deal now.”
Even to neutrally state x,y and z lawsuits have been filed alleging thus and so.
The crowd that looooves to talk about the Constitution could have interesting
and enlightening discussions on the Constitution-
without actually taking a stand
and offending Barry.
Instead they prefer to focus on global warming ,Ruth Chris steaks and pajamagrams.

"I am beginning to suspect Obama is a natural-born citizen, and that his birth certificate will confirm this....but it will reveal something else Obama doesn’t want known."

Yeah, like his belly button ain't normal at all.

What's going on there? The man's a freak...

Among the natural rights of the colonists are these: First a right to life, secondly to liberty, and thirdly to property; together with the right to defend them in the best manner they can.
Samuel Adams

He who is void of virtuous attachments in private life is, or very soon will be, void of all regard for his country. There is seldom an instance of a man guilty of betraying his country, who had not before lost the feeling of moral obligations in his private connections.
Samuel Adams

How strangely will the Tools of a Tyrant pervert the plain Meaning of Words!
Samuel Adams

It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people’s minds.
Samuel Adams

It does not take a majority to prevail... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men.
Samuel Adams

Mankind are governed more by their feelings than by reason.
Samuel Adams

Our contest is not only whether we ourselves shall be free, but whether there shall be left to mankind an asylum on earth for civil and religious liberty.
Samuel Adams

The Constitution shall never be construed... to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms.
Samuel Adams

The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil constitution, are worth defending against all hazards: And it is our duty to defend them against all attacks.
Samuel Adams

The natural liberty of man is to be free from any superior power on Earth, and not to be under the will or legislative authority of man, but only to have the law of nature for his rule.
Samuel Adams

We cannot make events. Our business is wisely to improve them.
Samuel Adams

It’s not a good sign that the MSM is finally covering this story. I suspect they expect the SCOTUS to announce tomorrow that they’re not taking the case.

If only the natural citizen clause was barely illuminated in a distant penumbra of the Constitution, then the Supremes would obviously hold forth on the issue. Unfortunately, the clause is directly in the Consitution. /s

If it's that serious it will likely be used against him by foreign governments. Pravda has already raised questions about the validity of treaties and agreements he might sign.

To clear this up a little...the Tribune claims that they have received information via telephone conversations and emails from someone at that Dept who states that the Director meant that Obama was born in Hawaii. I have posted the link once...it came from that Obamatron “curiousity”

It will be used by his cousin Odinga who is calling for a coup in Africa.

Journalists compare unfavorably to freshly-minted junior college associate degree awardees hired for $7.50/hour teller positions at banks.

At least the tellers have demonstrated they have a grasp on reality and accountability.

Hearsay! Are we to assume this Director is incapable of making his point in clear English?

Then the Tribune should write an article quoting the Hawaiian official who said it. It looks more like they are just trying to cover their Messiah with bunk story.
