'Constitution specifically says you have to be natural born citizen'
WASHINGTON – Former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay pulled no punches on Chris Matthews "Hardball"show on MSNBC today when asked if he is a "birther."
"Well, I’d like the president to produce his birth certificate," said DeLay. "I can. Most illegal aliens here in America can. Why can't the president of the United States produce his birth certificate? ...

Good for Tom. Help us expose this marxist quisling.

What Tom Delay should have said to Chrissy tingly feeling is this....
Chris you certainly agree that Obama is a significant first in the Political history of this country right?, the first black president, the first president born in Hawaii, so I would like you Chris to make a donation to the Childrens ward of the Hospital that Obama was born at in the Name of physician that brought him forth in the world. That simple tidbit of information could be found on the original long version of his BC.
You certainly have friends in the administration give them a call and ask them to find out for you, I mean what harm is knowing the doctors name that actually birthed him. Then make your donation expressly in that doctors name to the hosipital and make it public.
Also, the only way this will rid us of him at this point is impeachment. He best cough it up while he controls the congress, and not gamble on the '10 elections.
Congress would not vote for impeachment at this point, but after the mid-terms, he's on his own.
I disagree about impeachment. The office will be vacated immediately if he is found unqualified. If he refused, we’d drag him out by his ears.
bravo!
Can you imagine if he mentions the BC issue on “Dancing with the Stars”?? LOL!
we need someone to independently verify that you had to be 6 weeks old to fly back in 1961. Can anyone find out from the FAA around here?
Tom DeLay, Patriot, and someone who, like us, just wants the truth to come out about this issue, which should be no problem for the “transparent president.”
Go De Lay!
That said, I think it wouldn’t matter a bit if Obama were proven to have been born on Mars. The press and the majority Dems want him in, and nothing’s going to change that.
Tom Delay is a birther....He wants O’spama to produce his BC.
ROTFLOL Well put, Tom.
Not if he flew the British airline that flew from Kenya to Glascow to Vancouver in 1961.
LOL....he was my rep for a number of years. I always loved this guy. We’ve always had lots in common now another one...a birther like me. ;o)
Is their a video clip available? What was the tingler’s expression? Oh, I missed a good one, too precious for words./Just Asking - seoul62......
thinking more in terms of unwed mother’s home in Canada. Drive to Washington...
Versus
Having a baby in Hawaii and flying a newborn to Washington . I am not sure of the date that she actually showed up for class.
WND is claiming there was a law back then that you had to be 6 weeks old to fly. If anyone can find that law..then you have the smoking gun.
With him falling flat on his face with everything he's trying to ram through, plus the economy continuing to tank, even the dems and the press will eventually turn on him.
I think Obama should produce his birth certificate even though there is ample evidence he was born in Hawaii. However, I think it’s counterproductive to force him to produce a birth certificate or to go on about his being a Kenyan. My instincts are that this is what the Democrats want: to define the right as a bunch of kooks that hate the president so insanely that they will latch onto anything (i.e., exactly what the left was with Bush). I don’t know what we get out of this birth certificate attack; it will fail. I prefer to ignore the issue and go after him for being an incompetent wannabe dictator who will tax and spend at every opportunity. This resonates with the people.
Attack on all fronts.
I hope so.
“”I know,” Matthews responded. “But I’ve never asked you for yours.”
“Ask me!” DeLay responded. “I’ll give it to you!” “
As far as I know it is the President of the US that has to be a natural born citizen according to the Constitution. I don’t think it is required for a Congressman. So Matthews argument is spurious as usual for the bombastic fool.
I saw that today. He pretty much just shut Chrissy down.
Hey, I have to produce all sorts of things, he said.
DeLay 10, Chrissy 0.
That’s a visual I could get behind!!!
Republicans and independents haven't drunk the Obama Kool-Aid.
Asking for proof that a president is natural born is a sensible question and **easily** resolved by obama with a mere nod of the head.
Spending millions of dollars in attorney time, fight the release of vital records all the way to the Supreme Court, rescinding an officer's orders...now that is NUTZ!
The nutty one here is Obama!
By the way, Obama **himself** claims that his father was a British and Kenyan citizen. It is rational for citizen to ask clarification of the matter from our courts.
That’s the way I feel and I hope the military support is likewise as a whole damn bunch need to go with him.
Hey hey .. ho, ho
AWESOME! Thanks for the ping. As Obama moves to destroy this country more and more everyday, we can expect to see a rise in ‘Birthers’...lol. It may be the only hope of saving our country! Obama and the democrats are completely out of control!
Even babies need passports though.
Snopes attempts to explain this away by stating that "these [parental] qualifications...are moot because they refer to someone born outside the United States." From every analysis of the Framers' documents and 14th Amendment that I have read, this is false. The qualifications apply regardless of birthplace.
Snopes further claims that since the 14th Amendment states that "all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States," then that means that since Obama was born in Hawaii, then he is a natural-born citizen. Nope. Simply being a citizen of the United States is not the same as being a natural-born citizen.
Of course, an actual birth certificate would clear all of that up in an instant. So why is Obama spending millions to avoid producing this and other personal documents? Because he has something to hide, that's why. People don't spend millions to stonewall the release of something that wouldn't hurt them at all if it were released.
Putting together all of the timelines, I’m inclined to go with the Canadian birth. Birth was too close to her enrollment in college in WA. Wish someone up in that area would do some digging.
“...even though there is ample evidence he was born in Hawaii.”
Show us your ample evidence.
Wnd had hired an investigator in Hawaii..and they didn’t bother to look in the Polk directory last year????
Now all of a sudden they find that Toots was living the good Professor’s house. Where was the Professor?
All we need is that smoking gun about newborns not being allowed to fly from Hawaii..and it should be enough to get some people thinking about this whole thing.
But I don’t trust WND..so that rule might not even be true.
Not if she has a note from the hospital that information on the birth has been sent to the AM embassy for registration. Many young children traveled on their parents passport at that time.
fr mail.
FR mail
Do we know which airlines were flying out of HI at this time. I think the individual airline is the place to look for this info.
For example, on American Airlines (the company) infants can travel with a parent from the second day after delivery, although the airline recommends waiting until at least seven days after delivery.
Excellent video!!
Yeah, Chrissy...we want to see his “papers”.
Where’s the Birth Certificate?
Thank you./Just Asking - seoul62........
I don’t have the link now but there was a radio interview with WND. He claims there was a law or a policy that was changed in the 70s. Before this change..the newborn had to be 6 weeks. He was talking like this would be for all airlines.
My initial passport to come to the United States was a light greenish color-*(shows you how old I am)*, plus I have my original birth certificate!!!!!! Listen, if the one knows truly what he is and where he was born, then there is nothing to hide. Why give your critics feed for fodder??????/Just Asking - seoul62.......
you are right in that but the child’s name and photo had to be on the mother’s passport. I know because I have one for me and my daughter.
In 1961 no passport was needed to come from Vancouver to Seattle.
The rules for flying in on airlines were different from crossing the border by automobile.
HM, I’b beginning to think that the Vancouver connection may be the key. The missionary in Kenya who had connections in Vancouver is just too coincidental. Wish someone would go to Vancouver and search for any existing homes for pregnant girls in 61. Also dig for records for some kind of “footprint” SA might have left there.
The difference between the birthplace issue and the dual nationality issue is:
–we know that the Usurper will be exposed as such if it is proved that he wasn’t born in the US but we don’t know if he was or not.
The relevant strategy is a political campaign asking for the real certificate.
–We know that the Usurper is a dual citizen but we don’t know if a court will find this a sufficient reason to declare him ineligible.
The most advisable strategy is to ask for a judicial assessment of his status.
Both strategies are enough to expose the Usurper, and both imply som kind of wager. Both should be pursued.
