Donald Trump draws Barack Obama into 'birther' fray
Politico ^ | April 14, 2011 | MAGGIE HABERMAN

Posted on 04/15/2011 4:17:13 AM PDT by libstripper

President Barack Obama took on the “birther” issue that potential Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has yanked from the GOP’s fringe and thrust into the mainstream, saying it will backfire in a general election because people know he doesn’t “have horns” and want to focus on pocketbook issues.

and repeatedly debunked by media and fact-checking outlets

Amazingly not one media outlet or "fact-checking" outlet can tell you the name of the hospital where Barry was born or even the name of the doctor who delivered him!

They could still want to see the original birth cert.

The pressure is building and the fact that he keeps referring to and jokingly alluding to the BC issue means Trump is really getting to him.

Very odd. Given his penchant for deceit, he is saying he is Satanic but we haven't found the evidence (his horns).

Given his willingness to parse, I think he was able to shed the horns. However, he should be checked for hooves and a tail.

I find it interesting that Øbama refers to himself in the 3rd person....and that the American people are “pretty sure” that he was born in Hawaii.

I hear the sweat on his brow.

Hussein's, statements seemed a little bit too contrived - something that political strategists cooked up for him to say - to ridicule those wanting proof and in hopes of making the whole thing go away.

Note: to dims: You can make the whole issue moot by releasing his COLB and his school transcripts, but I don't think that will happen.

In his recent speech, he mentioned that he wouldn’t be where he is without a scholarship. He opened the door, so all particulars surrounding this alleged scholarship ought to be investigated and aired.

Trump’s investigation:

Time’s passing. He’d better have some results for us soon.

I agree, the pressure is building. The eruption will be “historic”.

Another funny addition to this story line is that Hawaii has ceased issuing Long Form Certs (apparently in an effort to protect Obama).

The Constitution, the Law of the Land, doesn’t address POTUS not having horns or not being a Naphil (part of soon-coming Nephilim) but it does say that POTUS must be native born.

Barry: “I don’t have horns”

No you don't, but your Father does.

And Barry, how about that 'birthmark' on your thigh?
You know, the one that looks like... 666?.

“....and that the American people are “pretty sure” that he was born in Hawaii.”

Pretty sure is down from they were sure he was born there. The facade is slowly fading away, just like his support.

I hope The Donald keeps the heat on. I don’t really want him to run though, just keep launching those pin prick attacks, today the birth certificate, tomorrow the SS cards, next day the Selective Service Records, next day the college records next day the real estate deal and then back to square one. UNKO, they are being felt because the counter attack has started, today’s headline was that The Donald liked Obama over Bush in 2008.

It is round 1 and the champ has a cut over one eye. Keep up the jabs and by round 3 he will need a standing 8 count. Hopefully before the 6th, he goes down for the KO.

He said he “Grew up in Chicago” and that he wasn’t born there as he was born in Hawaii. Last time i checked, Obama didn’t come to Chicago until he was already “Grown up”.

It is the cover-up that will nail them.

Actually it's never been up to a private citizen to go investigating whether or not the President is eligible. That normally happens before they are allowed to run. The last time the government asked for proof of eligibility was when McCain had to bring all of his documents back in 2008.

I guess this process had suddenly become part of a budget cut just after McCain.

Where was his residence when he went to Occidental College, Columbia and Harvard?

Why should DimBO tell the truth on birth certificate issue when he has not told the truth on anything else?
