So when my daughter is asked for her BC for softball this spring I can say, “What are you a hater?” (The argument of the left).

And when I show it, I can say, “Pow... Now you look like a real fool!” (The argument of the RINOs).

If either of the above makes sense. You need help.

I could understand saying it is stupid, irrelevant, ridiculous, distracting, etc. but promoting hate? It makes no sense.

Actually it's true, it does promote hate. Progressives absolutely HATE being called out on anything.

I’ll echo Governor Walker’s remark, which he made in an unguarded moment in a telephone conference with a person who called as a David Koch impostor, “Mika is a piece of ass.”

It’s hateful to make someone with darker skin follow laws? So Martin Luther king jr, who wanted us all to be judged by our character, no doubt including the morality of obeying decent laws, is racist, but you, who feel that darker people should be held to lesser standards, are not?

Why is it these people don’t notice the actual hate on the Left side of politics? Self-righteousness?

I love the birther lie that if only the One would show his long form certificate, they’d shut up and go away. It totally ignores two facts.

1). There would be nothing on the long form that would contradict the COLB.
2) Already there are Birthers who, through their misstatement of law, claim that Obama is ineligible no matter what. So they’re not going to go away, they’ll just either change their tactics or lie about the long form just like they did with the COLB.

I suppose it is mean and hateful to force children to produce their birth certificates and immunization records before starting kindergarten?

This is where Trump is on the right track.

For most Americans producing a birth certificate is a routine requirement--no big deal. The more the left acts like asking Obama to produce it is a big deal, the more people are going to start questioning why it's a big deal.

The lack of documentation surrounding Obama is worrisome. No BC, no school records, no college records pretty much no records at all until he started community organizing in Chicago.

I am happy Tromp is keeping the heat on Obama to produce documentation proving he is in fact a natural born citizen. I might even send an email to my congressman to do the same.

Good point, and an illustration of how the Left STILL gets to set the ground rules on fundamental terminology.

Birthers and Truthers are lumped together even at the very basic level of simply rhyming, yet they could not be different in the basic validity and supporting evidence of their claims.

Even rock-ribbed conservatives are still snowed by the Communist/media destruction of successful Red hunter Richard Nixon in Watergate, and will routinely deploy the -gate suffix when describing the scandal du jour.

Clinton’s Whitewater (among other ongoing criminality) SHOULD have been a much bigger scandal, and we should all be afixing the -water suffix to any new scandalous behavior.

We still have a long way to go to overcome the power of the entrenched LeftMedia.

Brzezinski’s view on Trump’s fascination with the birth certificate:

So that is how you describe your view of document presentation required for proof of living, “fascination”. Plays well with those with your views I guess.

I’d call it... how about mandatory? Bringing hate into the conversation is nothing more than uncontrolled teen age emotion. Hate and birth certificates are kind of mutually exclusive topics IMHO.

The way the hate word is used in leftist language would be to assassinate the character of someone believing in the fascinating need to produce mandatory documents when the constitution demands it.

If the SCOTUS, CIA, FBI, NSA, weren’t aiding and abeting treason, this would have been settled a long time ago. A lot of susposedly responsible people are more interested in selling us down the river. It’s very clear, too clear in fact.

Exactly. If it was just the Birth Certificate, it wouldn't have ever been an issue. But it's the lack of all of the other records that smells to high heaven. Also, has one person talked about what Obama did at college? Certainly if he had the high profile that he allegedly had there, somebody would have talked about their experiences with Obama there.

"To me it suggests someone who mindlessly parrots a message given to them by a political operative."

It's clear what's happening. Mika, along with all the other MSM libs, are trying to change the subject to avoid dealing with the fact they can't respond to any of the questions Trump raises. Very legitimate and obvious questions. The libs can't respond so they start spouting the "hate" nonsense to change the subject. Quite frankly, by doing this they are essentially admiting there's something there and they are scared to death of what it is.

The old hate claim, how boring. Hey Micky, you want to see hate just say Tea Party in your studio.

I’m of Polish heritage, but in Mika’s case, I will quote Archie Bunker, “Sticks and Stones may break my bones, but you are one, dumb Polack.”

This is where Trump is on the right track.

This is the track that every potential Republican candidate needs to take. Although Trump is a traditional liberal Republican, he at least has the courage to take on the Media over what is perhaps the biggest scandal in American History.

If everyone else shies away from this issue and tucks their tails between their legs at the threat of being labeled a "birther", then Trump is going to be the last man standing when the Convention ends.

All the other potential candidates are cowards on this issue. Sadly, Palin and Bachmann (who literally have nothing to lose by taking a firm stand on this issue) have backed away from this issue.

Do any of you notice that when Joe speaks about Obama and the WH...he turns to Mika directly? Like he’s speaking DIRECTLY to the WH? It’s pretty obvious she’s the direct line there.
