Someone have the transcript for hearing impaired Freepers?
It’s a good thing the media devoted their resources to investigating Joe the Plumber’s trade license and the DNA of Palin’s Down Syndrome child.
Well, it’s about time Rush mentioned this. How long have we (FR) known about this? Hopefully now that the Big Guy has brought this up it will become viral everywhere. I can dream can’t I ?
Considering Obama seemed to think he could fabricate his background freely, as evidenced by his submission for his autobiography, it is not unreasonable to believe he would lay claim to being a foreign exchange student for the benefits it provides.
People like Obama see nothing wrong with lying if you are cheating the corrupt system he hates.
No wonder he's so skinny and anemic looking.
Team Romney should dig, dig, dig, and get their hands on this material (and more) as quickly as possible. Then, set up a presser where “Governor Romney will publicly release documents that people have been asking for” — and then deliver the Obama info to the media (who will think that he was talking about tax returns). What a $hitstorm that would be! and a lot of fun to watch.
If Obama gained Indonesian nationality as a child and then later, as a young adult, he:
1. signed his name claiming status as an Indonesian citizen to an application for college or for financial aid, or
2. renewed an Indonesian passport or
3. did any other affirmative action that evidenced a clear and unambiguous intention to relinquish United States citizenship,
then Obama is likely no longer a U.S. citizen, under our laws as they were in effect in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
The reason Indonesian citizenship would cause such a legal problem for Obama is because Indonesia did not permit dual citizenship.
Therefore, if Obama affirmatively chose Indonesia citizenship, then he necessarily was evidencing an intent to relinquish his United States citizenship.
This would not necessarily be the case if the other country was one that allowed dual citizenship, such as Israel. If Obama was a US citizen and also an Israeli citizen, then by renewing an Israeli passport he does NOT necessarily relinquish U.S. citizenship, because his intent clearly could have been to be a citizen of both countries.
However, in the case of Indonesia, if Obama had taken an affirmative action to be an Indonesian citizen, then he cannot claim he intended to be a citizen of both countries, because Indonesia made very clear at the time that if you were an Indonesian citizen you could NOT also be a citizen of another country, so he would have known that by choosing Indonesia he was choosing one over the other, and not both.
Rush is rather late latching on to this one.
Trump also has the money and connections to pay off some janitor or other employee of Columbia to get the paperwork they need.
"Root: Class of 83 political science, pre-law Columbia University. You dont get more exact than that. Never met him in my life, dont know anyone who ever met him. At the class reunion, our 20th reunion five years ago, 20th reunion, who was asked to be the speaker of the class? Me. No one ever heard of Barack! Who was he, and five years ago, nobody even knew who he was.
Maybe the press should search out some affirmative action students who were enrolled in the remedial classes and ask them if they remember Barry.
Rush is late to the party. Where were his balls in 2008?
I’ve been posting about this for months to various blogs without any traction.
Rush should keep this one on the front burner.
Hee Haw, this tickles me. After all this obfuscation by conservative radio, some, who have never had the guts to touch Obama with a ten foot pole with regard to his phony life story are finally waking up. I heard Rush live and he really had little by way of comment on the issue. He more or less reported it as a news item, which is encouraging but it still leaves a lot to be desired. Rush more or less tippy toed around the issue, like he was walking on hot coals.
No doubt that he did.
None what so ever.
In 2008 Obama was hailed as the great orator and the mood was "anyone but Bush". Any dirt about him at that time would have been ignored by the media, and having McCain running didn't help.
Since then there has been time for some true digging and the country has seen how "well" things are going with Obama in office. Not all will take off the blinders, but this might be about the time to strike.
One term was bad enough, let's make sure it's not two.
This has been obvious for years.
