Over the past year, Secret Service agents charged with protecting President Obama seem to have taken a keen interest in the Birther movement, the committed group of anti-Obama activists around the country who claim the president was born in Kenya, not Hawaii, and is thus ineligible to serve. The idea has been widely and repeatedly debunked (see FactCheck.org's thorough takedown here), but that hasn't stopped Birthers from doggedly making their case in American courtrooms, to US attorneys, and even to a rural county grand jury, in the hopes that a judge will rule in their favor and Obama might eventually be removed from office. Those efforts have failed spectacularly, but they seem to have succeeded in placing the Birthers on the radar of the Secret Service.

I loved when you tried to get the Birther’s at this thread interested in our Sanger argument from the other thread(to gang up on me yet LOL) . They dont even know who she is, or care. 70 years ago. Pretty funny.

This is an anti-abortion site. They know who Sanger is. And you defended her.

Where’s the link to prove your false claim in 106?

I am stunned at some of the responses, I thought this forum was a safe haven,

Besides that, what sitting president ever spent approximately two million to keep the vault copy of his birth certificate hidden?

If you don’t think this is questionable, I feel sorry for you, imagine if it that had Bush,

The nOObs, trolls and BDS club have really helped curtail my participation around here. Not that I'm intimidated, but simply disgusted and will no longer waste my time.

Don't let them achieve their goals, dear Justa!

The silent majority was SILENT for years and look where it got us. Your frustration is understandable, but your withdrawal is not.

Just a li'l nudge. :-)

This is an anti-abortion site. Really??? I thought it was a small government site....no? I thought it was a War on Terrorism site... no?... I thought it was a low taxes site.... no?... I thought it was a secure the borders site... no?.....LOL

But all these years I been posting on a site dedicated to abortion full of ‘birth control history’ experts...WOW NEWS!

Better yet , Sanger was for birth control to avoid abortions.

You are too much

The blind populate FR the same as anywhere else. Don’t let it get to you. Not everyone is asleep.

I’ve been using computers since 1983 and the internet since 1996. Some really weird stuff has been happening to me and my equipment over the past year since I have been following politics, writing letters, and posting to blogs. I have had both minor and serious disruptions in service. Like you and some others, I sometimes wonder if it is being intentionally inflicted upon me.

Now if I spent the time looking around that silly Sanger thread for your posts to ping you with, would that make you like me more??? No! I would just buy 100 more ping pongs with you on that dead subject.

You can’t post the link because you lied.

Shouldnt you be off on an abortion thread calling democrats ‘baby-killers’. All those unborn being aborted every day and you are beating a dead issue here.

Exposing that you lied in post 106 is not a dead issue.

I walked away from you. YOU addressed me today.

Post a link to back up your lie in Post 106 or leave me alone.

And if I were you, I would not mock the issue of abortion.

“The thing that amazes me is the millions of dollars he has spent trying not to produce that $10 document.”

Barack Obama is the only man in the world afraid of his birth certificate. Utter silliness.

I wouldn’t worry. Secret Service can do nothing to birthers
_______________
BINGO! Let them come. I won’t let them in and I will say ...”I understand, but I feel it would be irresponsible of me to let you in without a warrant. I’m sure you understand the constitutional responsibilities both of us have in this sort of a situation”.

“Exactly. Not everyone is hastily making the “He’s a Kenyan!” accusation.”

True. Even Donna Brazile said during an NBC news talk show aways back that, “He’s African!” and no one nay-sayed her. In fact, all were quiet. Can’t find the link, but I saw it here on FR.

I feel we all know this man is a fraudulent and dubious POTUS, and we also know this congress will not investigate the matter. Why would they? They’re a totalitarian administration.
