Palin: Obama birth certificate 'a fair question'
The Politico ^ | December 3, 2009 | Ben Smith

Posted on 12/03/2009 8:10:17 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

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)

"The McCain-Palin campaign didn't do a good enough job in that area."

If only Barry was 100% white, the McLame campaign would have done a much better job vetting Obozo. Maybe the BC and 20 years of Barry sitting in racist/America-hating Rev. Wright's pews would actually have been worthy issues.

Juan truly ran a lousy campaign, reminiscent of Bob "Viagra" Dole's 1996 ("Just don't do it!") fiasco against the guy who stained the blue dress. Thankfully though Sarah was on the ticket, and she got my vote - and the votes of millions of others - who would never have voted for McLame in the first place. Pre-Sarah, my vote was to be for Chuck Baldwin.

Really though to be fair, it's sad that the risk of acquiring the immutable label "RACIST" is a paralyzing fear for all politicians - McLame included. So now that we have had our first "black" president, is there a chance that the race-baiters can get over it? I highly doubt it.

Gee, and here I thought we were living in a "post-racial" America.



Guess not...

You’re posting a link to FactCheck.org on Free Republic?

You could have just showed us your official Moonbat ID card. Would have accomplished much the same thing.

Enjoy your (very short) stay here.

Like most things McCain and "his people" say that's just so much horse stall scoopings. McCain's "campaign counsel" hasn't seen the BC.

Because none of the congress-critters have had the courage to push the issue.

>>Perhaps if Sarah ran in 2012 she’d use her position of standing to demand production of the secret document.<<

.
We can’t afford to wait that long — the country will be destroyed by then, even if he produced the wanted documents.

That’s total bullsh!t. They’ll release the originals on request. I’ve checked, as have dozens of others. Yep!

Here: 1) a primer on HOW to request an original birth certificate from Hawaii; and 2) even a pre-filled request form for butt-boy Robert Gibbs to send for his boss-man Obama.

Loaa Ka Aina Hoopulapula - DHHL requires the Certificate, p 3 Certificate of Live Birth request

I have in front of me a birth certificate certifying that Joe Sixpack, Jr. was born at such and such a time and date in 1969 at Small Town Memorial Hospital in Small Town, California to Mr. and Mrs. Joe Sixpack. I'm Joe Sixpack, the Mrs. is my wife and Joe Jr. is my youngest son.

In Witness Whereof the said Hospital has caused this Certificate to be signed by it's duly authorized officer and its Official Seal to be herein affixed.

It is signed by the administrator and the attending physician. There is no mention of the citizenship or immigration status of the parents.

Is Joe Jr. a citizen. Is Joe Jr a "natural born citizen"?

Obots are little more than booger-eating trolls for blindly throwing their support behind the "critical eyes" of Jess Henig and Joe Miller of FactCheck in their "review" of Obama's Certification in June 2008 — without even verifying the document's origin or authenticity.

http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/born_in_the_usa.html

In June, the Obama campaign released a digitally scanned image of his birth certificate to quell speculative charges that he might not be a natural-born citizen.

-snip-

Recently FactCheck representatives got a chance to spend some time with the birth certificate, and we can attest to the fact that it is real and three-dimensional and resides at the Obama headquarters in Chicago.


Here's the document forensics credentials of Jess Henig and Joe Miller of FactCheck:

The truth about Obama's birth certificate (FactCheck.org)
–by Jess Henig, with Joe Miller


Jess Henig has an M.A. in English Literature.
Joe Miller has a Ph. D. in Political Philosophy.

What's up with BO not producing a birth certificate and not abiding by the Constitution?

And how did Obama travel to Pakistan when Pakistan did not allow Americans into the country?

There was not such thing. See post #78!!!

The thing about Pakistan was disproven. Americans were merely warned NOT to visit the country, it wasn’t disallowed by the US or Pakistan.

I will say though that it is my hunch that he did NOT travel there on a US passport, but rather on an Indonesian passport as he probably still had the ability to use his Soetero name in that country and the US nor Indonesia would be none the wiser — of course, that is PURE speculation on my part...

As for the rest of your post — I agree with everything you’ve said. It’s just important that when we speak about this issue we don’t forward things that can be easily dis-proven. It weakens the rest of our arguments.
