The first question that a con must ask when confronted with the accusation of being a birther should be “Define birther- what is a birther?”
Is a birther someone who demands strict compliance with the Constitutional mandate that the POTUS be an NBC?
Is a birther someone who looks at the big picture- and heard his wife say that kenya is his home country- heard his grandmother say he was born in Africa- and saw him failing to put his hand over his heart during the national anthem, and sees him defanging our national defense and basic constitutional principles?? And therefore has some idea that his case that he is a NBC is a bunch of smoke and mirrors?
Is a birther someone who has observed that he has failed to release not only his BC, but all of his school and medical records?
We can reasonably demand that he produce his AUTHENTIC birth cert. without jumping to a conclusion as to which (foreign) country he was born in.
We are all Missourians: SHOW ME!
(Similarly, if any of you are accused of being racist- the first question should be “what is a racist? Someone who disagrees with the POTUS’ policies?)
Make them define their terms, and then test their definition- it is most likely an incorrect and inflammatory definition, and then you can deny their accusation and THEN put forward your argument.
Great article, Gina. Thanks.
Obama helped her payoff her campaign debts with a little something extra in the bank. She still has 8 full-time campaign staffers working for her. The big rap against her was she didn’t have any foreign policy experience...now that she’s added Secretary of State to her resume.
You’re right she was thrown under the bus...she wouldn’t even resign her Senate seat until she was actually confirmed by the Senate. She’s following the age old political mantra...Keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer.
Your words may be truer than you know.....Freep mail sent your way.
I doubt that. If sHrillary had a fraction of the wisdom she claims to have, she would have used the constitutional requirements of office to derail Zero during the 'Rat primaries. Instead of us having our first illegal alien White House Resident, we'd have our first legally elected female President. Plus, now she needs to be seen to be loyal to her Resident.
I was so AMAZED how she seemed to be “neutered” during the last few months leading up to the election.
And clearly the ACORN shenanigans in the caucus states should have had her totally riled up, but she just faded into the background.
It really made my hair stand on end to know that there was a force that was able to scare Hillary.
Bumperoo!
I beleive it’s all in the timing. So, time will tell. :)
I’m not saying she doesn’t AGREE with him; I’m saying she wants his job so badly that I doubt she’d stop at anything to eventually get it. The fact that she’s disliked by 75% of the population continually escapes her, LOL!
Expect a challenge to him by her come the 2012 primary; he’ll be a total Lame Duck by then and easy pickin’s for them, especially if the GOP doesn’t have a strong candidate to run in 2012 that can syphon off ‘Rat and Independent voters.
“Bottom line: She’d just pick up where he left off.”
Of course she would! Why is everyone assuming that she’d be no WORSE than 0bama? LOL!
We’re discussing who has the goods on him, and I’m thinking it’s ‘She Who Shall Not Be Named.’
I thought he was simply being his narcissistic self. But, the books answer peoples' natural curiosity about who he is and where he came from and lets him tell them in his own way. Or somebody's way.
When questions about his lack of a past come up, enough people aren't interested in what those "kooks" are saying about his past. And if you ask questions, you must be a "Birther". Zot! You've been Alinsky'ed!
You can only be called a 'racist' so many times before it doesn't mean anything. If enough people start asking questions (where the hell can society find decent reporters these days?) and don't like the answers they find, the country has a chance.
wish they’d hurry up whoever it is.
Well Said, Gina — this is well written and right on the money.
--“Alinsky argues that those who wish to change circumstances must develop a mass-based organization and be prepared for conflict….for him, conflict is the route to power.”
This helps explain the contempt and intentional stirring up anger with the American people and this administration. --Pelosi parading to the capital in front of the tea Party, than a fake racism charge,..it all fits.
Kind of sick, why all the followers of a dead person who advocates adult bully tactics.
bttt
“McCain’s job was to run a half-assed campaign and then throw in the towel, as he finally did for Obama (which is why Palin annoyed him so much by actually trying to win the election).”
Interesting....Friends call me a nut job when I share that theory.....I think McCain was thrown for a loop when he saw the party support for Palin......
I doubt she would agree or we wouldn’t see her on the campaign trail with him now....
If the country’s highly classified documents can make their way to the press, why can’t Obama’s documents be similarly revealed? Somewhere, sometime, somebody is going to get to these records and reveal them. My experience tells me, if there is a big enough reward ($$$$$$) out there for these documents, they will make their way to the surface.
