o talk shows, television programming, newspapers - even a liberal talk show host in New York and talk format icon Lou Dobbs - have begun taking note of the story long reported by WorldNetDaily over the doubts about and challenges to President Obama's eligibility to occupy the Oval office.
Lynn Samuels, longtime New York radio talker, even accused Obama of lying about his birth certificate.
WND has been reporting – many times in solo fashion – on the issues that have been raised by multiple lawsuits contending that Obama does not qualify under the U.S. Constitution's requirement that the president be a "natural born" citizen.
But now word is spreading, prompted by the case brought this week by an Army major scheduled for deployment to Afghanistan.
-snip- The story was reported on Sean Hannity's program on Fox News.
Hannity said the challenge to the deployment orders came after Obama ordered a surge in troops to Afghanistan.
-snip- Dobbs said he and his staff have "been working hard to figure out what's going on."
-snip- In a video posted on YouTube by Radio Equalizer, liberal radio talker Lynn Samuels had her say:
"We don't even know where he was born," she says. "I absolutely believe he was not born in this country."

Sorry, OmamaJeans, it ain’t going away. You can’t silence everyone.
A precedent has been set: If you have the support of the news media and your opposition party consists of self-serving eunuchs, then there are no requirements.

Sweet. Thank you for the the link Cindy.
ping.
Agreed.
It’s real simple, Lou. Obambi won’t show his bc.
Dobbs is anything but liberal.Watch him on illegal immigration issues and he is rock ribbed conservative.Certainly not libertarian.I hope he never lets up on the bamsters qualification(or lack thereof)to hold the office of POTUS.
You’re welcome Jet Jaguar.
It seems like that link is under-appreciated and not reported by the regular media.

When blue haired liberals are questioning Obama origins, he’s got a problem.
I hardly view Lou Dobb’s as a lib talker. He’s an independent and the only reason I might tune into CNN from time to time. He is pretty straight up.... In my opinion.
I agree. The title was a bad choice.
Note: WND wrote the title.

Thanks for the link!
I just gave the wacky lib samuels her own thread.
It’s too good not to share it. ;-)

Traction.
If Obama would be a true US citizen as required by law in order to become President Of the United States he could have put an end to all those speculations long time ago by coming up with the proper documentation. Just say “Here they are, now cut the crap and get on with it” but so far he never has. A while back it seems that even the Supreme Court sided with his charade but never re-affirming his citizenship for what ever reason. Perhaps they are afraid of public unrest should the truth ever be known?
That is my take Saint Germaine
