"Most Republican critics of Obama have given up pushing widely discredited long-running allegations that he was not born in the United States."

Yahoo has no "Standing" to make such a Claim.

Well Hell I can answer that stupid Question, Yes Idiot we have the Birth certificate in Our Posession,Goood Bye have a Nice day

[AlexW]

The new claim will be that since he is POTUS, he must have been born in the USA.
I am convinced that it will take an act of God to bring out
the facts, and he does not seem to be talking.
America is in deep doodoo.

All it takes is one state to keep their electors from voting for Hussein. As long as the SecState follows State law, there isn’t a thing any d@amn judge can do about it.

Mr. Gaynor, please provide examples of said “wide discredits.” I know of none. All the scientific forensic evidence points to fraud and forgery with willful intent to deceive the nation. Your side has not once disproved or even rebutted any of the evidence.

Just wondering: Why did Obama order a new birth certificate, the short one, in 2007 in the first place? Why didn't he order a long form instead of the short form back in 2007 instead of waiting until April 2011 to order a long form?

1. Did he lose the original long or short form that he talked about in one of his books? He wrote that he accidentally found his birth certificate---he didn't say if it was a short or long form---when he was a youngster.

2. Or, did the dog eat it?

3. Or, was the one he had in such bad shape that he wanted a new one to replace the one that was in such bad shape?

4. And if he still had his original long or short form but it was in bad shape, why didn't he simply show the birth certificate to the public and the press in 2007 and 2011, even though it was in bad shape?

5. 2007: Why didn't then Senator Obama order a long form back in 2007 instead of ordering a short form, because back then a person could still order a long form with no questions asked from Hawaii?

6. Courageous reporter: I wish a courageous reporter would confront Obama and ask him why he ordered a birth certificate back in 2007, and why he ordered a short form instead of long form back then.

Yahoo has deep and recent experience in the "widely discredited" department:

Yahoo Fires its CEO for Overstated Résumé

By Casey Newton
May 13, 2012

Yahoo fired its second CEO in less than a year Sunday amid concerns about an exaggerated résumé, throwing the company into turmoil just months into its latest turnaround effort.

[Crucial]

Well, if the claim that Obama wasn’t born in the country is truly discredited, then show us how it was discredited.

At the request of a constituent, I asked the state of Hawaii for a for a verification in lieu of certified copy. We're merely asking them to officially confirm they have the president's birth certificate in their possession and are awaiting their response," he said."

What a waste of time. You lose a degree of privacy when you run for public office and as many here understand the "natural born citizen" standard cannot be met because his father was never a US citizen.

Almost all of the "birther" lawsuits have been dropped due to lack of standing. In this case, the secretary of state has a duty to determine the eligibility of a candidate and the NBC definition is murky at best.

If he had any balls he'd request a declaratory judgment in federal court as to Obama's status even based on his possibly forged birth certificate. In fact, arguably this could be a case of original jurisdiction that could be taken directly to the US Supreme Court. Anyone? ;-)

[Brown Deer]

While confirming on Friday that he had made the request, Bennett said he did not buy into the "birther" belief.

"First, I have been on the record since 2009 that I believe the president was born in Hawaii. I am not a 'birther,'" he said in a statement.

"At the request of a constituent, I asked the state of Hawaii for a for a verification in lieu of certified copy. We're merely asking them to officially confirm they have the president's birth certificate in their possession and are awaiting their response," he said.

Most Republican critics of Obama have given up pushing widely discredited long-running allegations that he was not born in the United States.

That is a wild assertion not backed by a single fact. Indeed, we are now seeing our first official push-back, with a secretary of state finally asking for some paperwork backing the Kenyan usurper's claim of natural born citizenship.

The naked propaganda served up by the MSM is utterly disgusting. It is as lockstep as the press under the worst political systems: every article has multiple declarations of faith in their Dear Reader and the utter certainty that he was born in Hawaii; every article denounces critics as cretins and racist fools.

I have over the years happened to be near a number of news events, and virtually none of the press accounts have been completely accurate, and often wildly inaccurate. But this sycophantic behavior with respect to the Kenyan usurper is so absurd, so over-the-top, that had I not seen it first hand I would never have believed it. It is a level of worship that a Stalin or a Kim would have been satisfied with.

FU and your lies, Timmy.

Romney's pet stooge in Arizona - "do you have a valid, original, certified copy of obomba's birth certificate?

Hawaii's obomba stooges - "Why yes. Yes we do. Why do you ask?

Romney's Arizona stooge - Well that settles it then folks. obomba really is a US Citizen. Our friends in Hawaii say so so let's drop this all of this nonsense that BHO is a Kenyan born invader illegally and unconstitutionally occupying America's house. Our friends in Hawaii would never lie to us and who cares what obomba has said in the past about his place of birth? As rush just said yesterday, (paraphrasing) obomba is just a grand-standing, narcissistic, skinny, big eared, crack smoking, coke snorting, bisexual turd saying he was born in Kenyan in order to 'make himself sound more exotic'.
"I believe he was born in the United States" - Rush Limbaugh 5/18/2012

There you have it folks. Rush has given obomba his seal of approval. Hawaii will parrot what they've been "saying" all along and at no time will anyone have to prove of disprove anything obomba has said or done.

I have to say... The whole global conspiracy reeks to high heaven on both sides of the isle. I'm becoming more and more convinced that there really is no difference in either side's objectives especially after listening to rush yesterday poo-pooing all the evidence about obomba that's been coming out the last couple of months. What's he afraid of? And to have the nerve to ask why "most Americans" have never heard about obomba's drug use, homosexuality, place of birth, etc. is outrageous. Rush... like all the main stream press has either completely ignored all the evidence and refused to vet obomba or treated those that have been vetting and exposing obomba like citizens of Roswell in 1948.

And sean hannity is even worse. That little weasel runs around pretending like he's been sounding the alarm all along when in fact, he, like rush has been in the obomney camp all along.

At least that's how I see it.

If something isn't done soon there will be NO CHANCE of saving American.
It may already be too late.

[alancarp]

You would think that after all the hassle this Administration has put Arizona through, the least their Sec of State could do in response is ban Obama from the ballot until and unless overwhelming proof of natural-born citizenship can be established.

If any state should be experts on immigration and naturalization by now, it would be Arizona. Maybe the good sherrif oughta arrest Obama under suspicion of being an illegal alien if he ever sets foot in the state? Naw... that would be too good.

[snowsislander]

Despite the discovery of the above just this week, the press continues to plug their collective ears and loyally proclaim their total belief in the Kenyan usurper.

Even Stalin would have been pleased to have received such a level of frantic fanaticism as evinced by the Kenyan usurper's minions in the press.

[Sivad]

OK so when Kenya is retroactively admitted as
the 51st state will it or will it not be accepted as
a guy marriage commonwealth? I’m confused.

There appears to be a lack of understanding, legal precedent, or any clarity at all, in our founding documents and laws that describe who, and when the Presidential requirement to be a NBC is to be asserted or challenged. This needs fixing.

Yes I am a birther but I have no clue what Zero has in his background he has sealed everything. DOESN'T that in itself make the 4th estate a little curious? Just a little? CELARLY NOBODY is going to go up against the 1/6 of 1/2 BLACK man who has set history here by getting the sheeple of America to install him in the WH. He IS the Manchurian Candidate, and he was put here by the CPUSA.
