Congress report concedes Obama eligibility unvetted
WND ^ | NOVEMBER 8, 2010 | Jerome R. Corsi

Posted on 11/08/2010 7:22:43 PM PST by RobinMasters

A congressional document that has been posted on the Internet confirms no one – not Congress, not the states and not election officials – bothered to check Barack Obama's eligibility to be president, and in fact, that status remains undocumented to this day.

It's because state and federal law did not require anyone in Congress or elsewhere to check to see if Obama was a "natural born Citizen" under the meaning of Article 2, Section 1 of the Constitution, according the document.

The analysis by the Congressional Research Service, a research arm of the U.S. Congress, openly admits no one in the federal government, including Congress, ever asked to see Obama's long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate. In fact, it explains no one was required to do so.

Technically, the CRS is a public policy research arm of the United States Congress that is organized as a legislative branch agency within the Library of Congress; the CRS works exclusively for members of Congress, congressional committees and congressional staff in an advisory capacity, answering questions.

The original patriots/founders, having been forged in the fire of their struggle at pain of death did not foresee such an age as ours, where freedom was no longer understood.

Such is the deception and darkness now.

Plus, if Biden is (temporarily) acting as Pres, the entire Dem party will be effectively neutered, and sooner or later anyone who assisted, knew about, or in any way participated in any 0bastard crimes will also be up for investigation. Including Biden. His son falsely arrested Larry Sinclair, so he’s also implicated.

Okay, I am trying to understand this. Apparently, we have a President who did not provide proof of his eligibility for the office because nobody asked him to. The democrats were so enamored by this clean, articulate black man that they were willing to look the other way. And the feckless republicans were afraid to say anything because they might appear to be racists? Spoilsports? I’ll concede that, so far, that’s all possible.

But, explain this to me. Obama’s opponent in the primaries was Hillary Rodham Clinton. There is no more devious, well-informed political entity in the world than the Hildabeast, supported by her equally devious and corrupt husband. They had to have heard the rumors about Obama’s lack of eligibility. Unlike the republicans, Hillary isn’t feckless, and probably isn’t all that afraid of being tagged a racist, having been married to “the first black President,” and having jumped through all the usual liberal
pro-diversity hoops. I’ll never buy that she “took one for the team” for the good of her party, or, more laughably, her country. So, how and why did the Clintons allow this to happen?

Hmm...it doesn’t look genuine to me. Has anyone contacted CRS? Does CRS actually have a website at www.crs.gov, or is it just down?

Now that more State legislatures are GOP with GOP Governors it will only take one state to pass a law to unravel the mystery.

Not really.

Obama could decide as he has said “to be a really good one term president”.

He can choose not to run.

If he does not run he can keep all of his secrets until he is dead.

Besides what is all of the controversy anyway?

We know that he is not a natural born citizen. His British father is not in question. It is a fact.

The only question is; what is the definition of Natural Born as is required in the Constitution. The understanding of that term is historical fact for those wishing to look.

"So, how and why did the Clintons allow this to happen?"

What better way to get YOUR agenda passed through Congress without getting any of the blame, then coming to the rescue of your party as it tries to regroup as the only prominent candidate available without stain. Just a hunch.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It is like the “mutually assured destruction” of the Cold War. In other words, Obama had, and has, plenty of dirt on Hillary.

So?....What would have happened if Hillary had pushed this?

** Obama would have said, “Gee! I'm sorry and gone back to his day job of being a U.S. Senator.

** Hillary and Bill would have gone to prison....Possibly for life.

** Also...Hillary would have ticked off the entire black voting block. Without blacks Hillary would have been doomed anyway. I expect this was the reason she wasn't forceful about objecting to the blatant Obama fraud against her in the caucus states.

By having quiet patience, Hillary has a chance in 2012 or 2016. And...Maybe she is working behind the scenes now to expose Obama his ineligibility. Who knows?

“The Founders just assumed that American men were men of integrity.”

You are the winner for being concise.

You nailed it! The globalist’s agenda does not matter one ounce reg. dem/rep. They are in it ALL together and have been for many 200 years. ‘Pubs/Rats.....it matters not one iota. The eletit’s agenda is all that matters! We are nothing but fodder for their .50 cals.

Stcik to policy. Ed Schultz is just dying to get Republicans to take their eye off policy, so Obama can do what Clinton did.

It's a hipster word for "people". I might use it jokingly, if the mood strikes, but I wouldn't use that sort of street slang on a serious thread at FR. Especially if I were being challenged for posting something out of left field.

Noobs....what're ya gonna do? About all you can do is pull their coat. They'll get it, or they won't.

I doubt it. He is basically a newcomer to politics, and wasn't even around during the nefarious Whitewater years.

Also...Hillary would have ticked off the entire black voting block.

That's a valid point. However, once the election rolled around, it's doubtful that the blacks would have remained so angry that they would have pulled the R lever for the first time in their lives, although they certainly would not have come out in droves like they did for their Messiah. Hillary is politically savvy enough to have put a lot of distance between herself and the actual accusation that got the ball rolling. We are talking about a woman who used a commodities brokerage account to hide bribe money, claiming she turned a thousand bucks into a hundred thousand by "reading the Wall Street Journal."

If this nation is to survive we will only do so if we are a people of good will who have a desire to make the system work fairly.

We must also have patriot judges, attorneys and judicial scholars who refuse to be intimidated, bought/sold and/or in the tank for a political party or ideology.

The aura of corruption pervades this administration and the liberal appointed judges within. Americans are fed up with judicial rulings evading Constitutional law and creation of their own opined rulings. Three were removed from their seats this past week. More need replacing. These corrupt judges are a key element in the destruction of America as we know it.

Then this should be PRIORITY #1 for the new Congress: ensuring that the people running the government are in fact Consitutionally eligible to hold office to ensure the safety of the citizens of the United States, at the very least going forward.

She would have had to be prescient enough to have been able to predict last week's election debacle way back in 2008. And, to predict the debacle, she would have had to predict that Obamacare would pass. That vote was way too close to be predictable two years prior.

As for getting her agenda passed--she is such an egomaniac that it's only her agenda if she was the one who signed it into law.

for many 200 years.

Don't think so. Globalist in the U.S. came about just prior to Wilson's Presidency. The old "conspiracy theories" of Europe did not hold water here. That said, we have those conditions now. I truely wished I knew the real puppetmaster for Obozo. It is bigger than Soros, it is bigger than the Saudi money. He is truely a "post turtle" but the real question is what fool put him there?
