'Birthers' Nonsense Sets Georgia Up For Ridicule -- Again
Columbus (GA) Ledger-Enquirer ^ | January 27, 2012

Posted on 01/27/2012 6:53:39 AM PST by transducer

We will risk the fairly safe assumption, as this is being written, that Air Force One did not make an appearance at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport sometime Thursday....

You almost have to laugh at this latest chapter in the seemingly endless “birther” saga, because about the only alternatives at this point are tears and/or nausea.

It was embarrassing enough when members of the Georgia legislature -- including, to Columbus’ acute humiliation, two members of the local delegation -- drafted a “Presidential Eligibility Assurance Act” in the last legislative session.

Now Georgians get to enjoy the added spectacle of their secretary of state, Brian Kemp, warning the president (let that sink in -- warning the president) through a White House attorney that failure to appear in a Georgia court would be “at your own peril.”...

Peach Pundit editor Charlie Harper, in a blog published this week in the Savannah Morning News, wrote: “This is a mistake. We are taught from a young age that we will be judged by the company we keep … The birther argument transcends disagreements of policy and politics and spirals into pure nuttery.” How true.

Georgia, no thanks to some judgment-impaired officials and certainly without the consent of the governed, has been slumming in the Orly Taitz nuttery neighborhood way too long. Please, for the sake of the state’s already battered image, let’s just quietly tiptoe out of this putrid political ghetto and back to the daylight side of town before we attract any more ridicule....

You might be familiar with a little even called the Civil War? Hum? Yes?

Not since the secession of the south has a sitting POTUS failed to make the ballot.

You honestly think that is NOT news??? Wow.

Folks, you cannot fix stupid.

Nor was Obama’s father permanently domiciled in the United States like WKA’s parents were. The Treaty with China stated that those Chinese persons who chose to become permanently domiciled had changed their allegiance. So while they were not citizens, they were considered nationals. Gray could have used that for his justification of WKA’s citizenship, but he didn’t WHY? Because he used it to muddy the waters and protect the POTUS who nominated him to the SCOTUS bench. Chester Arthur.

WKA is not only bad law, it was written by a man with material reason to want to protect Chester Arthur, a man JUST as ineligible for POTUS as Barack Obama is.

Obama has LITERALLY followed everything Arthur did to hide the fact his father wasn’t naturalized until Chester was 14. Even going so far as to throw people a red herring about WHERE HE WAS BORN.

Grrrrr. WKA ought to be overthrown simply based upon Gray’s duplicity. If not for a half a dozen other reasons...

"The Georgia case is about whether or not Obama meets the definition of a Natural Born Citizen, which our SCOTUS has in the past determined to mean mommy and daddy were US citizens.

Not so (see United States v. Wong Kim Ark.

-------------------------------------

WKA was found by the court to be a "citizen," in part, because his parentS were perminantely domociled here.

Barry's father was a foreigner here on a temporary student visa.

Barry was born a British subject, owing allegience to the crown of her majesty the Queen of England. Assuming Sr. was his legal father at birth.

Minor, on the other hand, was found to be a citizen because she was a natural born Citizen....born in country, to 2 citizen parents.

Glad he was zotted. Is he back under a new screen name?

You crack me up. The issue has been tossed out of court on a question of 'standing' when people have tried to get it examined with discovery.

Ohhhhh Kay. No progress along that route, including members of the armed forces questioning the Constitutional qualifications of the current occupant of 1600 PA Ave.

However, the issue of whether he is qualified to be on the ballot for another crack at all this remains open to consideration.

So, finally, let's see some real evidence, not doctored image files, and show that he meets the requirement. In lieu of that, maybe the Democrat Party had better consider finding a new candidate.

The POTUS is not above the law, especially the Constitution he is sworn to uphold.

You guys do realize there is a reason that Mark Levin completely dismisses you right?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Hm?...Let me guess!

1) Mark Levin is a cowardly phony.

2) Mark Levin loves money more than truth.

Yep, you nailed it!

The posted piece may all Obamaton vitriol, but at least it's an indicator that the MSM (in particular, the Kansas City Star) is taking notice of the Georgia administrative proceedings. They must feel the need to protect their man from potentially serious damage.

...but no President can be President of these United States if he is not on the ballot or certified in all 50 states.

Wrong! One does not have to be on the ballot in every state to be elected President. The requirement is to have the votes of the majority of the presidential electors nationally, or, if no candidate has such a majority, to win the contest in the House of Representatives as prescribed in the Twelfth Amendment of the Constitution.

If fact, in 1960, John F. Kennedy won the national election despite the fact that the Democrats in Mississippi ran a complete slate of unpledged electors, so his name was apparently not on the ballot.

It would appear that rumors of Tex-Con's having been crispyfied are unfounded.
