Here is video of Ann Coulter on with Geraldo Rivera last night saying that President Obama's Birth Certificate is "not an issue," and that it is just being pushed by a "few cranks" out there. Coulter blamed the Mainstream Media's lack of in-depth reporting on Obama for the rise of those who believe there has been a conspiracy to keep the truth from the American people on the issue of Obama's birth.

Geraldo criticized Lou Dobbs as being a "dope" for talking about the issue, and for his opposition to illegal immigration. Coulter disagreed with Geraldo about Lou Dobbs, but said he is wrong on the birth certificate issue. Mike Huckabee chimed in that Hillary Clinton would have used the issue against Obama in the primaries if there had been anything to the story. . . . . . (Watch Video)

Coulter has gone over to the dark side. Her dark roots are showing.

[Eagle Eye]

Even in disagreement, rules are rules.

Where’s the pic?

[marron]

I love Ann. I’d still like to see his birth certificate, and I’d still like to know what citizenship he claimed when he was in college.

The fact that the Clintons didn’t use it is persuasive, but not definitive. It could just mean its too closely held even for them, or it could mean they’ve made a deeper bargain.

In any case, produce the document, and if I’m a crank, I’m a crank.

[BornToBeAmerican]

Anne, you are losing it girl. In fact, I think you have already. There would be No issue if zero would show his Birth Certificate. Until then, stop drinking the dims koolaide

[JudgemAll]

I guess America at this point does not care about this issue, and Coulter might sense that we need to hammer him on more salient language issues. That being said, we shall see, because these things wind either way.

The problem is the media hypocrisy for going after Bush or Palin on every non-issue, and that the media would have made it a huge issue if it had been their problem.

I think Coulter is a bit off the mark while on the mark on the media there.

[Yo-Yo]

Let’s not forget to trash Mike Huckabee for agreeing with Ann Coulter in that same segment.

[ScaniaBoy]

Actually she did blame the media for covering up...

[Mr. K]

OK Coulter HAS NOT ‘gone to the dark side’ because of this ONE ISSUE.

Let’s not be as stupid as democraps here.

Ann Coulter is still one of the most brilliant conservative voices that exist and we need her.

She is apparently not informed well enough of the facts on this one issue.

[jimbo123]

Ann Coulter is turning into another Peggy Noonan. It’s very sad.

[novemberslady]

That’s too bad...

[EagleUSA]

If this is the case, then four questions:

(1) Why did Obama, and his ilk, provide a COUNTERFEIT certificate of live birth which was proven to be a fake?

(2) Why has Obama paid out SO MUCH MONEY to attorneys to SUPPRESS all actions against him to provide certification of his eligibility?

(3) Why did Obama, immediately upon entering office, sign an EXECUTIVE ORDER locking up and restricting ALL ACCESS, with a couple of exceptions to staff members, to his private birth and youth-related documents??

(4) If Obama is truly eligible, by virtue of being a naturalized citizen, to hold the office of President, simply provided the MEDIA AND THE PUBLIC with legitimate documents that put the issue to rest??

Do these sound like the actions and position of a person that does NOT have anything to hide???

[SoConPubbie]

Let’s not forget to trash Mike Huckabee for agreeing with Ann Coulter in that same segment.

Huckabee trashes himself by his support for big-government solutions to problems, his trashing of Sarah Palin, and his identity-based brand of politics.

And I say this as an Evangelical Christian.

He doesn't need any help from anybody at FreeRepublic.

[InvisibleChurch]

It doesn’t really matter if it’s true or not, no one will be able to remove him from office. The point is to keep pressure on the press, keep them wasting resources refuting and defending it.

[Reagan Man]

>>>>>Anne, you are losing it girl. In fact, I think you have already.

Coulter lost it when she decided to support Romney in 2008. Continuing her lunacy today with eyes on 2012.

[Crazieman]

You people are insane. One issue and you hate her guts? She’s right. You are nuts.

While I would like to see all Presidents prove natural born citizenship, I’ve seen enough to convince me he was, and that would be the Hawaii newspaper announcement.

And you birthers are freaking kooks for implying that his parents had it placed in the newspaper so he could be president in 47 years.

[tenger]

and while we’re at it, why don’t we just trash all the conservatives that don’t agree with us 100% of the time. Grow up, folks, nobody agrees with us or you 100% of the time. Choose your battles.

[LibertyThug]

I don't disagree with her. Regardless, he won't be depresidented (whatever they'd do in that situation) and people are wasting time on that instead of seriously going after cap & trade, Obamacare, and whatever other crap they have heading our way.

It is too late, we need to concentrate on the things we can actually do something about. Just a thought.

[A_Former_Democrat]

I’ve thought about the Clinton angle too, but maybe Obama had something on her (likely). Or Clinton knew she couldn’t win the general election if she submarined Obama.

Either way, I still find it incredulous that everyone else has to prove citizenship/evidence of birthdate and birthplace, parentage . . .for many reasons, major and minor . . .except Obama

But somehow a Constitutionally-mandated requirement isn’t important, despite obvious attempts by the current officeholder to hide his documentation.

Suspicious as hell and anyone, liberal or conservative, who continues to play these denial games is truly in denial. And that include AC.

[adversarial]

It is an issue because he hasn’t produced one...that IS the
issue.
