Salon's handy-dandy guide to refuting the Birthers
Salon ^ | 8/4/09 | Alex Koppelman

Posted on 08/04/2009 6:22:01 PM PDT by pissant

Aug. 5, 2009 | There are, sadly, a lot of Birthers out there. A recent poll showed that 11 percent of Americans -- including 28 percent of Republicans -- don't believe President Obama was born in the U.S. Another 12 percent aren't sure.

So, at some point, you're likely to find out that a friend or relative is a Birther. Your Uncle Floyd will forward you a chain e-mail that says Obama was actually born in Kenya and there's a Kenyan birth certificate that proves it and hundreds of government officials and reporters are in on a conspiracy to hide the truth of his ineligibility for the presidency from the public. And you will wonder: How can I possibly deal with all the falsehoods in this e-mail without disappearing down a rabbit hole?

Well, wonder no more. In the spirit of public service, Salon has compiled this list of the most popular Birther myths, along with all the debunking you could ever ask for. Now you can just e-mail this list to Uncle Floyd and get on with your life.

Well, the next time someone asks the socialists why they think obamanation is NOT a liar (which, of course, is WHY he won’t show ANY RECORDS, following are the answers straight from HITLER:

From a report prepared during the war by the United States Office of Strategic Services in describing Hitler’s psychological profile:[
His primary rules were:

never allow the public to cool off;
never admit a fault or wrong;
never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives;
never accept blame;
concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong;
and, the BEST OF ALL
“people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it”

“sadly”?

Just ask your boy to show his authenticated BC. Why worry about we fringe-group birthers when your Messiah can clear the air in a heartbeat?

Your non-response will be interesting.

Good - nearly every single one of these 'myth refutations' can be easily be refuted.

Should be fun.

At this point, you have to ask why Zero spends so much money to prevent the publication of a public document? For my part, he deserves impeachment even if he’s not Kenyan, or Indonesian, or whatever.

This birther comes from Sodom and Gomorahh, aka San Francisoc & Berkeley.

*******

2012 presidential campaign:

I hope that Obama will be ready to show his 1961 Hawaii long form birth certificate during the 2012 presidential campaign.

I make the statement above for this reason:

As soon as Obama signs his eligibility form in each state in 2012 so that he can enter the state's primary, there will be voters present who will take advantage of the 1 to 5 day window to challenge Obama to prove that he is eligible to be President under the laws of the Constitution of the United States.

Yes and no. It’s a voice over on top of a viral video actually made by Chris Crocker. In the original, he is crying about Britney Spears. It’s actually quite hilarious. “LEAVE BRITNEY ALOOOOONE!!!”
