Speaking to the conservative talker Rusty Humphries today, Sarah Palin left the door open to speculation about President Obama's birth certificate.

"Would you make the birth certificate an issue if you ran?" she was asked (around 9 minutes into the video above).

"I think the public rightfully is still making it an issue. I don't have a problem with that. I don't know if I would have to bother to make it an issue, because I think that members of the electorate still want answers," she replied.

"Do you think it's a fair question to be looking at?" Humphries persisted.

"I think it's a fair question, just like I think past association and past voting records -- all of that is fair game," Palin said. "The McCain-Palin campaign didn't do a good enough job in that area."

McCain's campaign counsel has said the campaign did look into the birth certificate question and, like every other serious examination, dismissed it.(continued)

Just like how the Global Warming Scam is being exposed, so shall Obama be exposed.

The other one is Michelle Bachmann.

As far as an op-ed on the economy? The Democrats and Obama want to destroy the economy. Nothing can be done until 2010 if their is a landslide wipeout of the Dems and the GOP removes the Kenyan or a court actually does their job and upholds the Constitution on eligibility.

Isn't it immaterial anyhow? His alleged father's being a British subject makes him ineligible anyhow, IIRC.

Correct. You don't even need to discuss WHERE he was born or the validity of his birth certificate, per se.

It's where his father was born that matters the most:

“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.

I’d focus on that but hey she is doing fine with her own agenda.

That being a death (politically for Zero) of a thousand cuts?

[Krodg]

I don’t think this is her platform. It is simply a response to a question.

I dont believe Sarah give a sheite what the media, libs, rinos or any other critter thinks about what she says. She is no longer an elected official so they can all go stuff themselves.

I love it....Go Sarah!
