Under the Hammer

The mainstream media and the White House have done a great job of marginalizing the question about President Barack Hussein Obama's place of birth.
One of Obama's great strengths is supposed to be his ability to communicate, but a recent poll showed that 20 percent of Americans believe he is a Muslim. Of course, Obama did say, "John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith." His supporters say it was a bad choice of words, but it is certainly odd for someone whose big claim to fame before being elected president was his ability to communicate.
On a similar note, despite his many protests, many people don't believe him when he says he was born in Hawaii.
What Obama, with the help of mainstream media and liberal pundits, has been able to do is make fun of anyone who would like to see some proof that Obama was born in Hawaii.
The New York Times and other left-leaning news organizations write about how the Obama campaign put Obama's birth certificate on the internet, but it isn't true. It can't be true if what the governor of Hawaii says is true. Gov. Linda Lingle said the director of the Hawaii State Department of Health had seen the birth certificate and verified that Obama was born in Hawaii.
Now if Obama's birth certificate was published on the internet, why is the governor making a statement about someone in her administration who has the authority to go look at a birth certificate actually seeing the document? The most logical reason seems to be that people realize what was put up on the internet doesn't look anything like their own birth certificates. Most birth certificates have the length and weight of the baby, the names of the parents and their race, the name of the doctor who delivered the baby, the hospital where the delivery took place and other such information.
Obama, when asked about his inability to communicate said, "I can't spend all of my time with my birth certificate plastered on my forehead."
But no one is asking Obama to walk around with his birth certificate on his forehead. He is the most powerful person in the world and it doesn't seem like it is too much to ask to see his birth certificate.
After all of this controversy, the big question is, why doesn't Obama release his real birth certificate? In many states it would be a public record. But if Obama was born in Hawaii as he has said, and as the governor of Hawaii has said, and as the director of the Hawaii Department of Health has said, why not release his real birth certificate and let people see it for themselves? Is he embarrassed about how long he was when he was born? Was he a fat little baby and he is embarrassed about his birth weight? The only thing that I could think of that would be embarrassing is that it seems possible that his birth certificate would list him as Caucasian. His mother was Caucasian and it seems like it would be a distinct possibility. But does that matter? It might be kind of embarrassing, but it doesn't seem that important at this point.
But the whole birth certificate issue raises other questions about Obama. We knew what President George W. Bush's grade point average was at Yale. And when Sen. John Kerry ran against Bush, we discovered that Bush's average was actually higher than Kerry's.
That is just an example of the level of detail we had about those two men's lives. The public knows almost nothing about Obama, except what he has written about himself. And he admits that his autobiographies have some fictional elements, in that he combines several people into one character and such. He said he didn't buckle down as a student until he got to Columbia University. Then the question becomes, how did he get into Columbia? Ivy League schools don't usually take slacker transfers.
Did he ace all his courses at Columbia and that's how he got into Harvard Law School, or did he ace the law boards? He says he was a law professor at the University of Chicago, but he only taught one course a semester. What was he doing the rest of the time?
Both his academic career and his work history seem full of holes. He is still going to be president whether those holes are filled or not, but why not ease the fears of a good percentage of the American people and start releasing some verifiable information about Obama's life before he became president?
People are and have been interested in their leaders. One problem is that if there isn't something factual then things get made up. There may be more made up about Obama because there is so much leeway. I think his advisors are making a mistake by not suggesting he open up a little more. People want to know about him; give them some information.
Hussein is WHITE? Who knew?
Originally the governor said she had seen it and had it in a safe. Then more recently she said she had not seen it, and it was not in her safe but rather it was in a safe over at the health department. The head of that department, who the governor says saw it, said they hadn’t actually seen it either. But someone had and it was in a safe place.
So whereas at one time their claims seemed clear, of a sudden they all seem to be back-tracking. Which is in itself a bit weird. Its weird even that anyone would be assuring us it was in a safe. Why? Who knows.
At one point the head of Health claimed there were no originals, they had all been destroyed in a fire. And then a few days later backtracked on that too and reaffirmed that they did have it. But no one can see it. And now no one who claimed to have seen it claims to have seen it.
What I believe is this, the democratic party gave a blind eye to his ineligibility, that Nancy Pelosi herself just waved it off as being unimportant and of no issue during the nomination process.
And every act, every meeting, every law has some form of agenda that appears to be destructive or to divide a unified nation.
All I see is a person who has slipped through every sewer line under the Whitehouse like a rat and has managed to come out of the toilet and has assumed control.
And the nation has no more bravery to go against a suicidal type of odds to bring him down, no honor to earn, everyone just wants to get their gold and virgins, all weaklings kneeling to Islam.
Our heroes will wear labels of hate being tossed by the liberals for standing up and taking action, well I for one can step forward, and I hope there are more with the same plan.
Does it not seem strange to anyone that not one person who would have been present at the blessed event has come forward to say they were there, or could have been there, because they worked at that facility on that date?
This is the biggest fraud ever perpetrated on the US, just noses out man made globan warming, or ears it out.
First order of business in the new congress should be the house investigations committee issuing a subpeona to Hawaii for the immediate production of the ORIGINAL certificate of live birth.
0Dumbo is such the farce. He is a muzzie. Born and bred.
He is still looking for his church in DC like he looked for his damn dog at the pound. 0Dumbo is a liar, liar, pants on fire, muzzie who is hell bent on taking over the great nation of the USA.
Sorry for the rant. Sometimes I get excited. Sorry.
What will happen if a new Speaker is elected with a pair of balls? That could be a different story....it should - has to be done - for the good of the country. This country needs to see that reliance on the bleeding heart, collusive liberal media hurts us, they need to see lying, cheating Democrat leaders (Pelosi) hurt us, they need to see that slicks like Obama with his melifluous tone, lisps and three-word sound bites do this country no good whatsover. He's a slick one - only I prefer to think of the 'slick' being a skidmark on the history of this country.
Actually I would make strong suggestions that future elective candidates meet the exact requirements of our laws.
Every possible Senator or Governor we have right now and every possible person that is in office right now must admit and put on public display whether they met the requirements to reach the highest elected office in our nation, and if they do not what is the highest office.
Schwarzenegger cannot be President, but if we continue to allow the laws to be overlooked then by what reason would it prevent him from becoming POTUS?
If Obama’s past cannot be proven, and if it is and there is no enforcement of it then it opens the door for any person to become President, including drug lords from Mexico.
Our government is a big block of cheese with spots of mold, well cheese is basically mold but edible, and the bad mold can be cut out and we can still consume the cheese.
That is unless we allow them to take our knives away.
For every day we hesitate to cut the mold away it grows larger until eventually its no longer consumable.
And the biggest mold spot is Nancy Pelosi.
His Kenyan Grandmother was at the birth. She said that The Big O was born in ....Kenya!
Well: He sure has the Judge’s buffaloed.
Blago couldnt get him to testify , couldnt get the records and now Lakin’s judge say’s the records might embarrass Zero, and she denied them.
How can someone put on a case saying that the President isn’t the rightful President if the Judge denies them access?
I would vote for any Republican for President, who said that if elected he would get to the bottom of Obama’s BC, his college records and his SS number.
McCain was and still is a plant in the political arena. He never was expected to become president and he knew it. The fix was in long long before the conventions. They rattled the reeds accidentally by selecting Palin as a running mate without realizing how amazing she is. She was supposed to be this 'unknown broad' from some place out there in the boonies called Wasilla or Alaska or something.
Worst betrayal of all though are the Republicans and the Conservative pundits who have been too gutless to confront the left on this crucial issue. The US has a fake President, and nobody who should be doing something about it is doing anything. The man is a cheap impostor and a criminal, and nobody in law enforcement says or does anything about it. I just have to shake my head in bewilderment that such a thing can come to pass.
I totally agree. I was shocked when even conservative pundits started mocked those who questioned Obama’s natural born citizenship. Two crucial points were ignored:
1) a clear explanation of what it means to be a “natural born citizen” (Does that mean being born in America, being born of 2 American parents, or both?); and
2) the showing of the long form birth certificate along with proof of it’s authenticity.
Never have I seen either of the two points discussed on TV , although they are huge issues in the blogosphere.
“First order of business in the new congress should be the house investigations committee issuing a subpeona to Hawaii for the immediate production of the ORIGINAL certificate of live birth.”
I agree. And I would love for the Whitehouse to say Nyet.
“Never have I seen either of the two points discussed on TV , although they are huge issues in the blogosphere.”
The reason you won’t see, hear or read it is the same reason Obama became President. The media hid at and the media will defend it.
The only way this will ever get resolved is to go after the media. The problem isn’t Obama is a muslim. The problem is the NY Slimes won’t do its job and therefore should be considered nothing more than Newsweak, just without the personality.
Mama Sarah said in 2008 in an interview that she was present in the delivery room in Kenya when Obama was born and her recent comments beg the question that has not been asked....who was the mother?.....and does anyone know who the father really is seems to be stuck on replay.....Mama Sarah was awarded a doctorate for her work with orphans and in her statement urging more people to join her work, she said, “Even the US President passed through my hands.”
I, for one, hope you are wrong. That was the tactic that George W. Bush used when he took over from Clinton and it was a horrible mistake. All his "make nice to the dems" did was make him look the chump to his enemies who gleefully took every freebie he gave him and still screwed him, and the country, at every opportunity.
If, and I pray it happens, Sarah or some other hardnosed Conservative makes it into office next election, they need to go through Washington DC with a MASSIVE broom. All illegal Executive Orders must be rescinded immediately. All Democrat political operatives in offices controlled by the Executive branch must be terminated immediately. Clinton set the precedent when he requested the resignations of all US Attorneys as one of his first acts in office -- fine, fire them too!
As for Hussein, the truth damn well needs to be made known. If his Presidency was illegal, than anyone and everyone who knew about it and who allowed the lie to stand, needs to be identified and castigated. We may not be able to get prosecutions at that point, but we damn well better try.
The way I see it, America has ONE LAST CHANCE at the next political election to stop a slide into despotic socialism and return to the values and principles of its founding. If this one last chance is neglected, I do not believe there will BE an America the next time an election rolls around.
She is one proud grandma now as she saw Obama's birth.
Maybe so....maybe not...we do not have any factual information that would prove she is his grandmother.... but at the time she was not speaking in terms of family...she was speaking in terms of her work with orphans.....
After she said it, her translator went into denial mode as he remembered the Obama party line to say Obama was born in Hawaii.
I'll add this bit too since some well known troll here thinks she couldn't be so discourteous to verbs.
When you speak to foreigners, you may speak in short answers to be understood. That's the way I've done it, and foreigner who spoke little or no English have spoken to my speak in pidgeon lingo to be understood.
my = me & speak = spoke
Dang, twice on the same night. :^)
Actually, here is no place on the BC listing the race of the child. In 1961, the child's race would have been that of the father. From The Vital Statistic of the United States -1961 Natality
The category white includes, in addition to persons reported as white those reported as Mexican or Puerto Rican. With one exception, a reported mixture of Negro with any other race is included in the Negro group, other mixed parentage is classified according to the race of the nonwhite parent...
I hope I am wrong also, but past is prologue as they say. God forbid the Dems hold onto both houses. That election in November decides whether I do a wholesale cashout and take the tax hit (no penalty) or not. Then I’m gonna have to put some in gold, some in brass and some in lead, I guess.
thanks for setting me straight.
