Then he should be able to easily present his long form birth certificate and get this issue resolved ASAP. Right?

“are there more paranoid, delusional Americans than there used to be? “

It depends on what you call paranoid and delusional.

Sounding in an alarm that our healthcare system is broken and needs to be replaced FAST is paranoid and delusional. Scaring little children with lies that the earth is burning up because of daddy’s car is paranoid and delusional.

As far as I can tell, the issue was resolved at noon of January 20, 2009 when Chief Justice Roberts delivered the Oath of Office to Obama.

These people are so blinded by their partisanship that they can’t look at anything objectively. Its the same old thing. Lie enough and the lie will become the truth.. Well in their minds at least.

Note that the “author” doesn’t attempt to refute the allegation that Mabus has not presented a valid birth certificate for inspection, but passes off secondary validations, and launches right into the tired and tiresome accusations of fringe whacko insanity of the tireLESS individuals pursuing Birthcertifigate. I predict it will ultimately be mabus’s downfall.

Remember how crazy they said the people were who said Nixon was taping all of his conversations? Remember how crazy they said people were who said Clinton was lying to the grand jury about monicagate? Until the blue dress turned up with Clinton himself on it. MmmmHmmm.

The issue is the presentation of his long form birth certificate. I don’t think that was resolved whatsoever when he was sworn in.

That would have been the responsibility of Chief Justice John Roberts.

I don’t think that was resolved whatsoever when he was sworn in.

As it was not resolved for the previous 42 men who have been taken the Oath of Office of the Presidency.

And since none of the previous 42 men who have been President of the United States have been requited to release their long form birth certificate, there is not particular reason why this president should be required to do so.

"That would have been the responsibility of Chief Justice John Roberts."

Actually, no! It is not. And the issue is that Americans would like to see, the never before seen, long form birth certificate. It shouldn't be that hard to produce. Should it?!

You and I have covered everything on this topic. Let's leave it at that.

I just find it odd that for some reason, some people want to see this particular president’s long form birth certificate, when such documentation had not been requested from the other 42 guys,

All 42 others would have produced if after so many requests just to easy the people to which they serve. The dude has a sketchy past. College records sealed! Come on! That ain’t right!

McCain provided his, and there wasn't any question about where most other recent candidates were born.

I certainly don't believe Obama was born in Kenya, but when a candidate refuses to provide the documentation that his opponent provided, it's natural that people will start to wonder if he's hiding something.

That may have been the idea: to withhold documents in order to get opponents fantasizing about conspiracy stories and stop paying attention to what's actually going on in Washington.

The lack of information about Obama's parents and early life feeds the theories: if you had wedding pictures and snapshots of Barack's parents' honeymoon, etc. there'd be a lot less theorizing and conspiratorializing.

Horsey lost me when he started screeching self-righteously about the PI not posting the Mohammed cartoons. He and his newspaper have plenty of courage when it comes to slamming anyone on the right but precious little when it comes to offending someone who might actually hit back. Ignore him; he really isn’t relevant anymore.

You are right on target with paragraph three.

But wedding and honeymoon pictures?

Do also want to know when, where and how he was conceived?

And yes, the process by which a president elect proves his eligibility is a little murky, but without legislation, you cannot require more documentation from this president than you did from others.

I was thinking more of "Greetings from Niagara Falls" rather than steamy bedroom scenes.

I suspect though, that the Kenya theory is on life-support.

If so many people didn't have so much invested in it, they'd look elsewhere in Obama's past for mysteries.

Maybe not, but the speculation isn't going to stop.

That may be the plan: tying things up with conspiracy theories so that people pay less attention to what's going on and opponents get discredited for believing the theories.
