Why the media blackout on Obama's citizenship

Here is Gov (commerce secretary elect)Bill Richardson saying in Spanish that Obama is an "immigrant." (So he understands understands "immigrant" issues.)The context suggests that by "immigrant" bill richardson means "illegal immigrant"



Here in plain English is the Kenyan Ambassador saying that Obama is born in Kenya.

from obama's own site factcheck.org by way of fightthesmears on his dual citizenship at birth

“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.

Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982.”

You can’t say “blackout” anymore. It’s racist.

Looking forward to seeing the entire video of the Press Conference of yesterday when it is posted on FreedomMarch this evening! It will be a video worthy of sending far and wide. It will show the MSM in action, uncut, and unedited. The video will make you smile!

Why the SCOTUS blackout on examining a piece of paper before handing over the most powerful office in the world?

[Boardwalk]

The ends justify the means in this case, and no liberal will stand in the way of hope and change.

[EagleUSA]

This issue must be pursued to it’s legal conclusion. The public must not fall prey to the liberal media propaganda that attempts to paint conservatives, who believe and trust in the Constitution as the law of the land, as nutcase right wing conspirators. If Mr. Obama is a natural born citizen of the United States of America, then show us the proof. Release the critical documents. We will accept nothing less.
::::::::::
It will not happen since he cannot provide proof, because there is none. Simple really. Why else would he have spent so many lawyer hours and dollars suppressing this effort??? Even his relatives basically said he is not a natural born citizen. The media is nothing more than the red-as-hell leftwing propoganda machine for the socialists. They will support an illegal DemoRAT president until their doors close.

Why? Because they know the truth, and it doesn't fit their agenda of anointing The Chosen One!

[TCH]

OK... we will now use “whiteout.” How’s that?

[Prole]

Because our Republic is about to come to a complete and total end, that's why.

The Supreme Court's cowardice and refusal to follow FEDERAL LAW is unlike anything I have ever seen in my life.

It makes me physically ill to know that Obama's people put out a phony birth certificate.

Obama's intentional deception makes me ill because no one is calling foul on him, and in so refusing to follow the law, our National identity and sense of Justice goes out the window.

On his To The Point News website, Jack Wheeler has divulged that he knows "the true story" about Obama's birth situation, and it is "wild," but he — and the contact person who also runs a major news site and told him the facts — are apparently not yet prepared to reveal this shocker to the public. Wheeler said he will let the source of the information reveal it in his own time. "...The details of what he told me is for him to reveal when he chooses, not me. I can tell you it is OMG wild."

This is BS. If he has the goods it needs to be released. If not then he needs to STFU!

[FreeAtlanta]

Why won’t his lawyers submit the “factcheck.org” documents in court?

[mrclean5]

Good points, but one thing I will add: since when do we believe the words of the Kenyan ambassador? Even if there’s legitmacy to what he’s saying, and I’m defintiely not sold on Obama’s Hawaiian certificate, that’s the last guy’s word I’m going to take to heart. These Africans have been talking to any newspaper they can in the last few months, claiming any connection with Obama. One government official in Kenya keeps boasting that he’s a distant cousin of Obamas.... Their countries are so awful, they’ll do anything to claim some connection to America

[highlander_UW]

As citizen and savior of the world, Obama’s place of birth is immaterial. /s

[cripplecreek]

Instead of simply answering these challenges with documented proof of his citizenship, he has chosen instead to conceal from public view, every single legal document he has, and spend a half million dollars in lawyer fees to fight the cases in hopes of getting them dismissed or delayed indefinitely.

And now from Mr Transparency himself.

"Let me also say that I remain distressed that the White House during this confirmation process, which overall went smoothly, failed to provide critical documents as part of the record that could have provided us with a better basis to make our judgment with respect to the nomination. This White House continues to stymie efforts on the part of the Senate to do its job. I hope with the next nominee who comes up for the Supreme Court that the White House recognizes that in fact it is its duty not just to the Senate but to the American people to make sure we can thoroughly and adequately evaluate the record of every single nominee who comes before us."

I have concerns about the birth certificate. For the record: i think something is there, and I hope the truth comes out.

However, bits like this:

On his To The Point News website, Jack Wheeler has divulged that he knows "the true story" about Obama's birth situation, and it is "wild," but he — and the contact person who also runs a major news site and told him the facts — are apparently not yet prepared to reveal this shocker to the public. Wheeler said he will let the source of the information reveal it in his own time. "...The details of what he told me is for him to reveal when he chooses, not me. I can tell you it is OMG wild."

Are just plain stupid. To paraphrase: "I know the truth. The people need to know the truth. The truth will drive everyone wild. It's the most important story ever. But I'm not gonna say anything else."

Give me an effing break.

[claymax]

I would agree, but I think that term is already taken....I just used some the other day on my essay paper!

[frog in a pot]

Although I largely agree with the author’s writing, I did send an email and nit-pick one point.

The 20th was the first amendment to address a President elect’s failure to qualify and covers exactly what we are facing today. Further, 3 USC 15 sets out the precise method by which the Congress at its Jan 8 joint session, may object to and challenge the qualifications of the PE.

Our nation is not screwed (yet), we have a carefully thought out remedy.
What we need is for as many members of Congress as possible to show us they have some...
courage.
