How does she NOT know the basics?
COLB is not a birth certificate.
That document, printed from the internet, was never introduced into a court of law or inspected by a forensic document examiner.
Hawaiian law allows for someone born “without the state or territory” to get a BC. Having one does NOT prove Obama was born in the U.S., but that his parents applied for a BC. Need to see the long form to know the location of birth.
“Fact Check” is funded by a foundation the president of which was... Obama.
So Obama is not showing a document other than this photograph and does so through a fake third party organization.
If that convinces anyone, they need to visit FR and learn!
This is the biggest fraud and scandal in USA history.
We don’t have a president.
“That’s what should settle it,” she said. “I take the president at his word and I think — again I would have no problem and apparently the president wouldn’t either. Introduce that, we’re done. Move on.”

Move on? Yes, Michele, that’s EXACTLY what we conservatives will do regarding your candidacy. Move on.
She never was relevant. She had poll numbers in what? Single digits?
Forget her.
I swear they are all on the same side. I give up!
I guess for some Freepers, Bachman is now a Rino...
Her point is a valid one — focus on what The One has done to the economy, jobs, inflation, deficit, our standing in the world. These are all winning issues.
The birth certificate issue is important, but it won’t win the election.
Don’t shoot the messenger.
I’m starting to wonder why 0bama doesn’t just “come out” completely for all that he is. It isn’t like any serious objection will arise from anywhere. Declare martial law, shariah law, or black pamper law, and get on with it. $8/gal gas. Ban guns. Reparations. Redistribution. Infanticide....oh wait, we already got that.
She officially made my ‘weasel’ list and won’t be acceptable to me as a candidate for President.
Michele Bachmann always has struck me as a good looking lightweight. Please move on from her.
It does for me, Ms. Bachmann, but not in the way you mean.
Last man standing: SARAH PALIN.
So now we’ve got the MSM carrying around his COLB for interviews with conservatives. (He pulled it out for Trump interview too.)
They have jumped the shark.
The location is on the COLB.

Exactly right. Thank you.
Yes, let the Donald tilt at that windmill. She can focus on picking at “The Won’s” other glaring weaknesses - this is how you fight a battle from multiple fronts.
Face it, the birther brigade is dying out. They got a bit of a bump when the Human Hairpiece started making waves about it over the last few weeks, but Trump in most other areas is ideologically liberal.
If the birther junk is the focus of Obama’s opponent, whoever that may be in 2012, he wins.
Tamp this junk down and move onto to substantive issues, please.
Agree.
If they can’t stand the heat from a runt like Stephy, they aren’t suited to hold the office of POTUS.
The “birther” issue has become a good litmus test for the Republican field: Any candidate without the balls to take it on and blast back at the MSM minions = not qualified to handle the heat of an election.
CAUTION TO READERS: POLITICO
Agreed. And a lot of people seem to be missing the larger point: Obama’s refusal (or inability) to produce the BC is not just about the natural born citizen requirement— as many here have pointed out, even if it were proven conclusively that he is not a citizen, he would not be removed from office. It’s about a broader pattern of “Chicago way” politics, where nothing is honest or transparent, and where one’s history or connections with less savory elements are, so to speak, whitewashed.
But in any case, this can’t be a one-issue election. Too many voters are misinformed or willingly ignorant, and a “conspiracy nuts vs. historic leader” narrative would weigh the election heavily in Obama’s favor.
OK lets say he comes out an admits he’s not a citizen (not gonna happen), whats next?
Is the left gonna go quietly into the night? No
It would be civil war.
At least TheDonald told the Democrat operative what he could do with the COLB!
