Oh, OlberFuehrermann put him on his idiotic list. He must be doing it right.
Even so, it still has no co-sponsors.
Give it time it will.
Obama eventually posted his birth certificate on his campaign Web site. The Hawaiian health secretary vouched for it.
An outright lie the media insists on perpetuating. The state of Hawaii has never vouched for it.
Joe Biden:
“You know, I never realized just how much power Dick Cheney had until my first day on the job. I walked into my office, and you know how the outgoing president always leaves the incoming president a note in his desk? I opened my drawer and Dick Cheney had left me Barack Obama’s birth certificate.”
What do you expect from the Leningrad Times?
Lots of “Those Who Protest Too Loudly.”
Who could oppose a requirement for a candidate for president to document eligibility.
Colbert was making fun of the Florida Congressman on his show, I think it was Thursday-not good for the GOP in general.
Why would the President of the United States REFUSE to produce a Birth Certificate if he had one which would remove doubt of his eligibility and avoid a Constitutional crises?
Two possible explanations:
1. He doesn't have one.
2. The one he has would reveal something he doesn't wish revealed.
The Dalai Bama is a fraud and poseur on so many levels - it's frightening.
Ping!
LOL! Olberbuttmunch *knows* Obama is illegitimate!
No reason to fear this bill or make fun of it unless they are all afraid of it. Very odd. They are making it worse by opposing the bill because they will leave the impression that there is a ‘there’ there.

“you open yourself up, then, to having your judgment questioned”
You’re speaking about yourself here, congressman.
As Obama continues to do stupid things one after another, his ability to retain his current status will decrease while the number of people interested his birth certificate will increase.
“...they have no idea it’s settled.”
Excuse me Congrssman Posey, I respect what you are doing here but... I’m not new to this issue and I don’t recall it being “settled”. Are you refering to Mr. Soetoro’s posting of his COLB on Factcheck.org? I hardly think that “settled” anything.
Ping to remember the following names:
Posey, Republican, was best known for being reasonable and low key, a staunch conservative who had a reputation for working with Democrats on tough issues.
That changed last week, after Posey quietly introduced a bill in the House that would require presidential candidates to submit their birth certificates to prove they are really U.S. citizens.
Now he's the butt of jokes on late-night TV and the target of considerable venom on liberal-leaning Web sites like Huffington Post and Talking Points Memo.
Keith Olbermann, MSNBC's liberal commentator, deemed him the "World's Worst Person of the Day" on Tuesday.
Posey has been portrayed as something of a nut for what is widely seen as an attempt to legitimize the fringe belief that President Barack Obama is not a U.S. citizen.

Rep. Neil Abercrombie, Democrat-Hawaii...said, "The citizenship of someone who has reached the point of running for president of the United States is not really an issue."

People are going to look at you peculiar if you're going to have a bill that kind of, somewhat, challenges the president of the United States on his citizenship," Lawson Democrat, said. "I think that's inappropriate. I would think that he should withdraw that bill and maybe apologize to the public."
"What you do, generally, with legislation is you … address common issues or concerns," Abercrombie said. "The citizenship of someone who has reached the point of running for president of the United States is not really an issue."
That has to the most moronic sentence to come out of any politician's mouth in a while.

I don't recall that. Didn't they simply say they had one on file or did I miss something?
I've noticed that too, and I get the feeling that all the dim congresscritter know the truth, and that truth is he isn't a NBC. They have circled the wagons, doing and saying all the expected things they do when they are playing cover-up.
I received an e-mail letter from my Rep. about the birth certificate issue and I hadn't written him. So I've been crafting a letter to him about it and asking him to join Rep. Posey. I think what really ticked me off about his letter to me was "The Halls of Congress are surely not the appropriate venue to settle delicate questions of constitution process."
I realize that at this point the court is the appropriate venue, but there was a point that Congress was and no one objected. But this is not the point, the future elections are the point now, starting with 2012 (if we still have a free country for an election).
The comment from Mel Martinez that “the constitution doesn’t matter once the people have voted” is certainly in the running.
That’s basically suggesting that Hugo Chavez could win a write in vote and he would be our president because the people voted for him.
You’re correct. All they said is they have one on file.
