Obama essentially wants us to trust his word that health care will work out just fine for the rest of us who do not have the coverage he and the Congress have.
Okay, but before he asks us to trust him, he should trust us first by putting to bed a little unfinished business: basically, whether he qualifies to be President in the first place. He and his administration have mocked and degraded those who have sought the answer to this question. We're told they're a small clutch of angry fringe lunatics, unable to put their racism aside and accept a wonderful President who just happens to be black. But exactly who are these people?
Please spread this around. Education about Obama on all fronts is critical before Congress returns from recess.
This isnt last years birther list: ******************************************************
Lou Dobbs CNNs longest-running news anchor who has been with CNN from the beginning and is at the top of the chain at CNN. Dobbs is convinced that there is a story and logic to this issue.
******************************************************
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who is convinced that Obama in unqualified and is demanding not just the Birth certificate, but passport and school records.
******************************************************
Rep. John Sullivan (R-Okla.) questioned the authenticity of President Barack Obamas birth certificate: Obama is creating an enemies list of people who oppose this miserable health care plan. Thats from a guy that cant even show a long-form birth certificate. I think we all ought to be prepared to fight that.
******************************************************
The EXTREMELY LIBERAL Huffington Post is also not only calling for Obama to release his records, but has actually said the following: The only thing weirder than the birthers are the anti-birthers. In other words, its quite too weird to dedicate yourself to the idea that Obama should NOT release his records and put this issue to rest!
******************************************************
Kenyan Prime Minister Raila Odinga, Kenyan Ambassador Peter Ogego and all of Kenya, apparently, are not only convinced that Obama should release his records, but that he was actually born his their country.
******************************************************
Lynn Samuels A VERY LIBERAL NYC Radio fixture for over 25 years has not only called for Obamas records, but has repeatedly called Obama a liar and ineligible to be president based on Obamas reluctance to turn over his records.
******************************************************
11 US Congressmen sponsored a bill on the subject as a result of the birther controversy, making it quite implicit that they believe there is much to the issue that needs to be addressed and resolved.
******************************************************
Rep. John Campbell, R-Calif.,
******************************************************
Congressman Roy Blunt said President Obama hasn't produced a birth certificate
******************************************************
U.S. Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala "Well, his father was Kenyan and they said he was born in Hawaii, but I haven't seen any birth certificate,"
******************************************************
Rep. Eric Swafford of Tennessee, who agreed to be a plaintiff "for a Writ of Mandamus to obtain original birth certificate, immigration records, passports and other vital records for Barry Soetero aka Barack Hussein Obama."
******************************************************
African American NY Pastor Dr James David Manning, Founder and Pastor of ATLAH, one of urban New York Citys largest churches and a world-wide ministry, is absolutely outraged by Obamas secretiveness, and preaches that in one of the most densely populated African American populations in the United States. Via online videos and a daily 3-hour radio broadcast heard Monday through Friday, almost daily Dr Manning calls for Obama to disclose his personal documents to put this issue to rest or resign from office.
******************************************************
Major Stefan Cook refused deployment until Obama unsealed his records and proved eligibility to serve as commander-in-chief. When the case was admitted into court, the Government simply dropped Cook's military orders without military consequence, though they did manage to get him fired from his civilian job.
******************************************************
Radio Host Steve Malzberg Has taken on the issue passionately and is no stranger to the airwaves. A guest host on stations around the country sitting in for Bill Bennett and Mike Gallagher on the Salem Radio Network, and John Gibson and others on Fox Radio. The Steve Malzberg Show is heard nationally via the WOR Radio Network.
******************************************************
Ambassador Alan Keyes Whose long and illustrious career goes back to the Reagan Administration and one of Obamas most uncompromising critics is one of the Plaintiffs demanding Obama show his credentials in legal action.
******************************************************
Lt. Col. Donald Sullivan sought a temporary restraining order to stop the Electoral College vote in North Carolina until Barack Obama's eligibility could be confirmed, alleging doubt about Obama's citizenship.
******************************************************
Lt. Easterling, As a retired US Army SFC, Filed suit to force Obama to prove his eligibility.
******************************************************
Local newspapers, fueled by an education from their angry readers, have begun to openly report and editorialize that the story is a legit issue, at least insomuch as Obama fuels the issue himself with seeming deep paranoia. Heres a good example: An Open letter To Barack Obama http://newsblaze.com/story/20081102053144zzzz.nb/topstory.html
******************************************************
Newspapers around the world ranging from the liberal London Times to the Conservative Canadian Free Press to Russias socialist newspaper, Pravda, have called out Obama to release his long form birth certificate, Pravda going so far as to insist that Obama step down from office if he does not. Here are a couple of examples from Pravda
http://english.pravda.ru/opinion/columnists/18-12-2008/106848-Code_Name_Obama-0 http://english.pravda.ru/opinion/columnists/106778-1/
Last week there was a blistering condemnation of Obama and the leftist media in the US on Obamas citizenship issue at Australia.TO , Australias official national news website, which now puts these angers and complaints all the way to the other side of the world. Heres the op-ed
http://www.australia.to/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=12881:media-mischief-the-obama-eligibility-issue-and-the-dispositive-fact-&catid=71:world-news&Itemid=201
******************************************************
Lawyers around the country are taking up dozens of very recent US Soldiers cases to determine if Obama is eligible to be their commander-in-chief. These are all highly educated individuals and the military men are often career, high-ranking officers.
******************************************************
The Globe, While generally regarded as a tabloid, has nevertheless had two very serious front-page stories covering, generally, the US military suits against Obama for his records.
******************************************************
Maj. Gen. Carroll D. Childers agreed to be a plaintiff in legal action
******************************************************
A well-documented AOL poll recently showed as much as 85% of those who participated believe that Obama should release his personal records and put this issue to rest.
******************************************************
Virtually every cable news outlet has mentioned on-air, sometimes repeatedly, that they get thousands of e-mails *every day* from citizens demanding more coverage of this issue.
******************************************************
The Supreme Court, alone, has to date received more than 60,000 letters from Americans on this issue, all demanding disclosure from Obama.
****************************************************** World Net Daily, a respected online news organization and one of the few online-only news organizations recognized at White House news briefings, has a petition for Obama to disclose his birth certificate, and already has well in excess of a *half million signatures* alone.
******************************************************
BY THIS RECKONING everyone BUT the White House and their political allies and operatives in the entire world are kooky birthers.
Growingly, Presidents and Prime Ministers around the world, allies and contentious leaders alike, cannot rest assured if treaties signed by Obama are legal, or even if he can be trusted. For those who have less concern about political matters, Obama has made the US the laughing stock of the world. Not the birthers. Obama. Because only he can end this mess he, himself, created when he pro-actively sealed his records from public view through his lawyers.
The time has long since come for the White House to stop dodging this issue with insults, shrugs, waves of the hand and insinuations as to the character and intelligence of now, essentially, the entire world.
Its time for Obama to show a modicum of courage and stifle appearances of gross suspicion and paranoia to the point of seeming emotionally unbalanced and simply release the documents so the world can be done with this. And this must be done long before Congress votes on any Health care legislation.
Or Obama must step down from office. Now.
RE SENDING THIS INFO OUT, I suppose it goes without saying that any subject header with "birthers" is likely to be ignored unless you get lucky with someone who hates birthers so much they'll open it hoping for some feel-good disparagement of us (hence the INCLUSION of the word in the media listing!).
SUGGESTIONS FOR E-MAIL SUBJECT HEADERS:
For congressmen: Subject: CONCERNS ABOUT OUR DISTRICT AND THOSE IN IT
For the media: BREAKING INFO ON THE BIRTHERS AND WHAT THEY'RE UP TO
For your friends and neighbors and subject headers for non-political board threads: THE TRUTH BEHIND THE CONSPIRACY THEORISTS
For Christian Boards: BEARING WITNESS ON A GROUP THAT IS BEING ATTACKED
PLEASE GET THESE OUT ASAP. It takes time to get momentum going, and we only have 3 weeks left.
What, Pissant didn’t make the list?
Welcome to FR
LMAO :0)
how about ‘constitution upholders’ instead...(damn, is that correct??!! a lot of Crown R.....) the ‘birther’ thing term allows them to demonize us into looking like a bunch of screwballs....I’m all for continuing on this to...
Has this been posted on all the Topix BC threads.
There are about 10 of them. The largest has
over 50,000 post.
I am more worried about this...
[The birth certificate], in theory, should be there, said Mr. Vieira. What if it isnt? Who knows, aside from Mr. Obama? Does Russian intelligence know it isnt there? Does Chinese intelligence know it isnt there? Does the CIA know that it isnt there? Who is in a position to blackmail this fellow?
For the entire article go here...

The pressure from the Socialist Media is so bad that there simply HAS TO BE SOMETHING that Obama is hiding.
Otherwise the Birthers would be ignored or relevant documents disclosed to end the headache.
Neither scenario is occuring.
First time I’ve seen it.
Confucius say troll who go to bed with itchy butt wake up with smelly finger
INTREP
I think Hugh, like so many other Republicans are afraid to look silly in support of the Birther Movement.
On its face it seems so outrageous and incomprehensible that many feel it couldn't be true. Soros and company played this hand well.
But if one simply looks at the facts, you are left with the inescapable conclusion that Obama is definitely not a Natural Born Citizen.
Great list! Thanks!
Not that I would know.
Bill Cunningham the talk radio host out of Cincinnati is close if not a Birther. He took over for Drudge’s syndicated time slot on Sundays.
My biggest questions are for the media.
When they call us conspiracy theorists, why dont they mention that McCain was asked and provided his?
When they call us racist right wingers, why do they fail to mention Phil Berg, Alan Keyes, and Roger Calero?
For all the time they spent chasing down people who knew if Bush had a dentist appointment 30 years ago, why cant they find a single friend of Obama from his school days?
For all the stories about how stupid Bush is, why dont they want to brag about Obozos grades?
I could go on all day but I would still reach the same conclusion. The media is the realtor that sold this slum of a president sight unseen and now theyre afraid of screwing in a few light bulbs for fear America will see the tenement we bought.
LOL! I think the word you're looking for is Constitutionalists, but I get the point.
As far as being demonized and looking like screwballs - I've come to the conclusion that no matter how carefully we speak or how salient the evidence we provide, they're going to mock us ANYWAY.
It's what they do.
Count me in.
There is no valid logic to support spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to keep secret those documents that would cost a few hundred (at most) to produce and put this whole issue to rest, unless there is truly something to hide.
Smells worse than last week’s fish...
It’s time to take back the country.
