Trump On Birth Certificate: Obama Spent Millions ‘To Get Away From This Issue’

Video
» 494 comments

Donald Trump continued with his mission to question the whereabouts of President Obama’s birth certificate, in an appearance on Fox & Friends this morning. Before the birther issue though, Trump wanted to share his assessment of how Obama is handling Libya and the budget: “we have people that have absolutely no idea what they’re doing running this country.”

Back to Obama’s birth certificate, Trump bluntly states “this guy either has a birth certificate or he doesn’t.” Trump goes on to say that he is really concerned:

“You have no doctors that remember, you have no nurses – this is the president of the United States – that remember. . . . Why can’t he produce a birth certificate? . . . I brought it up just routinely, and all of a sudden, a lot of facts are emerging and I’m starting to wonder myself whether he was born in this country?”

Trump admits there may be newspaper ads suggesting Obama was born in Hawaii, but claims there are a lot of reasons to explain the existence for such ads. And Trump declares Obama “spent millions of dollars trying to get away from this issue, millions of dollars in legal fees.” Apparently people are calling Trump from all over to not back down on this issue, and it seems he is listening to their advice as he repeatedly stressed here “if you’re not born in the United States, you cannot be President.”

    Hrmph!

    Calling out the punk that goes: “Me? Show my birth certificate you?” “Hrmph”. I wish Trump would tell the audience how 0bama could have stepped up and saved a man from going to prison, by merely showing his long for BC.

    But 0bama does not want to even open up that can of worms; the can with all his other carefully hidden documents. Go Donald. The anti-Soros!

    Too bad O’Reilly’s too much of a coward to bring up the issue.

  • timzank

    Love him or hate him (trump), and whether you believe Obambi was born here or on the moon really doesn’t matter anymore, the issue is now “He’s HIDING something” (Obama) and that can only hurt “His Hopiness”….

    President Transparency is not going to fare well on this, as he did in 2008 because now there are two years of “cover-ups” on other stuff to cast doubt…

    Your favorite topic, the BC. ahh, your favorite topic, I bet you are all pumped up, ready to fire away. Show us the BC and the newspaper ad was a conspiracy that was made in 1961 to cover up the birth of a child born far away in Africa, who will one day be Mr. bloody President.

    I’m pumped up, also, skypet, because it puts the spotlight on what a coward he was for letting a man twist in the wind over it, and that it highlights the other hidden documents of his past, that you seem to care nothing about at all. It shows what blind ethically and morally challenged sheep his followers are.

    I love how the right always says about Obama, “he’s not like us” but the Donald is with his bunch of kids with 3 different wives. lol

  • http://twitter.com/SailRabbits Magister

    First of all, where did Trump get the “more than a billion dollars” number for what Libya has cost, thus far. Congress has started making some inquiries because that figure has been bandied about, but some quick back of the envelope accounting shows that it’s ridiculously high.

    Also, he’s stuck with the “millions of dollars in legal fees”? Whom did the President pay these fees and toward what end? What case or inquiry was he defending against?

    Trump admits again, he tossed the birther thing out on a whim and because it got him some attention, he’s stuck with it, but he also says every time something along the lines of “I’m starting to wonder myself”. IOW: He hadn’t really wondered before and combined with his other admissions, he hadn’t done any research before he tossed the bombshell out, but since it’s getting him airtime, he’s going to keep riding the horse.

    A certified birth certificate is a very different animal than a Certificate of Live Birth (COLB) that was posted on the Internet and claimed as proof of birth in Hawaii. COLB’s are also noted in newspaper’s as births. Again, more nonsense. In all 57 states, there is only one standard for proof of birth and that is the Certificate Of Birth, certified and under seal. Stop the BS and obfuscation of fact and make the case of live birth by producing the document.

    OK, let me try this. Every state in the union has gone to a computer generated document as a birth certificate. In fact, the Florida DMV recently rejected my long form original BC (raised seal and everything) in favor of the newly printed state issued Certificate of Live Birth. Like it or not this is the now accepted standard. Government issued and not the doctor generated original.

    The question is very relevent since, like the birth certificate issue is about BO’s credibility. Now since according to you it was a good question, how about answering it. Btw, I’m not a birther, but put all of these things together and it’s highly troubling, wouldn’t you agree?

    Yes, and liberals are on the side of the enemy, always.

    The phrase the enemy of my enemy is my friend is a proverb that advances the concept that someone who is the enemy of your enemy is therefore your friend. It further means that because two parties have a common enemy, one can use the other to advance their goals. Often described as an Arabic proverb, there is also an identical Chinese prover.

    Of being an American hating, terrorist supporting liberal. Specific enough, TrollofTexas?
    There has been a sudden spate of blog items and newspaper articles, mainly in the British press, linking Barack Obama to a former member of the radical Weather Underground Organization that claimed responsibility for a dozen bombings between 1970 and 1974. The former Weatherman, William Ayers, now holds the position of distinguished professor of education at the University of Illinois-Chicago. Although never convicted of any crime, he told the New York Times in September 2001, “I don’t regret setting bombs…I feel we didn’t do enough.”

    Hey, TexasTroll, I believe the artcle clearly states that HE WAS CONVICTED OF NOTHING. But tell me how 0bama could be so stupid not to know of his radical past, yet at the same time knowing that Ayers could write? Be specific.

    Myself and many others support you, Mr. Trump, in your efforts to try to make Pres.? Obama show his REAL birth certificate. I had previously written my state congressman about this issue. If Obama has an official ORIGINAL birth certificate–then he should show it. It IS the right of the American people to know if he is a natural-born citizen. It is no longer a “personal” issue when you run (and win) for president of the United States. MAKE HIM SHOW IT OR MAKE HIM GET OUT!!!

    If he does decide to run you can bet your bottom dollar that he will be in it to win and that means he will already have what it takes to bring Obama down.

    US cost of Libya war may exceed $1 billion as mission creeps

    US cost of Libya war may exceed $1 billion as mission creepsSince the cost of a Libyan no-fly zone was estimated, the U.N. coalition has extended the mission to attacking ground forces. Image: CC mashleymorgan/Flickr

    Details about the cost of the Libya war to the U.S. began to emerge as the intervention launched by a U.N. coalition against Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi concluded its fifth day. With a military budget under stress from two wars, the initial cost of Operation Odyssey Dawn to the U.S. is estimated to approach $1 billion. The U.S. cost of the Libya war is being drawn from money set aside each year for emergency military action and humanitarian relief, but a prolonged conflict may require the Pentagon to request emergency funding from Congress.
    Estimate of Libyan war costs destined to increase

    The cost of establishing a no-fly zone over Libya was initially estimated at somewhere between $500 million and $1 billion in a report issued by the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, an independent policy research institute.

    Why, sweetpea, that is the mystery. http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/lawlicenses.asp

    Why did Michelle Obama give up her license to practice law in 1993?

    Records at the Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission of the Supreme Court of Illinois list her status as “voluntarily inactive and not authorized to practice law.”

    It further states that Michelle license is “on court ordered inactive status.”

    The statement has many bloggers wondering why a court would issue an order to stop Michelle Obama from practicing law, and some have even suggested the first lady may have been facing allegations of misconduct.

    Read more: What happened to Michelle Obama’s law license? http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=105998#ixzz1HubnN4rW

    I mean she had just spent a fortune on a juris doctor degree from Princeton, and surrendered it 5 seconds before the state of Illinois was going to take it from her. You tell us, sweetpea?

    As for Barry, you decide:

    Barack Hussein Obama’s Law License – Missing in action??
    Posted by Chris..

    I came across a post that mentioned that Barack Hussein Obama had given up his license to practice law for some reason. I apologize that I lost track of the original post. That poster mentioned that it was odd that Obama would have given up his law license since it did provide a good income.

    So if you go to the Illinois Lawyer search and search for Obama, you get

    Barack Hussein Obama and under “Authorized to practice” there is a “NO”. Ditto for Michelle.

    If you click on Barack Hussein Obama, you then get some details.

    One section reads

    Illinois Registration Status:
    Voluntarily inactive and not authorized to practice law – Last Registered Year: 2008

    So, the question is, why would Obama give up his license and ability to practice law?? It just doesn’t make much sense. Of course, the ‘investigatice journalists’ in the lamestream media would never look into this.

    Also, let’s take a look at the wanna be first lady, old smiley face herself..

    First off, we have

    Illinois Registration Status:
    Voluntarily inactive and not authorized to practice law – Last Registered Year: 1993

    Ok, that says “voluntarily inactive” HOWEVER, the next section says

    Malpractice Insurance: (Current as of date of registration;consult attorney for further information)
    No malpractice report required as attorney is on court ordered inactive status.

    Any clues out there as to why a court would order Michelle Obama to be inactive?? It would be nice to know why a potential first lady has apparently had her ability to practice law yanked by a court somewhere.

    The last section reads

    Public Record of Discipline and Pending Proceedings:
    None

    Well, that isn’t surprising. My experience is that lawyers tend to look after their own and not air their dirty laundry except when it is absolutely necessary. I did some check of the Google news archives searching for a clue as to why a court banned Michelle Obama from practicing Law or why Barryo gave up his license in 2008.

    The lovely Mrs . Ayers :

    ” Who is Bernadine Dohrn? She’s the prominent Chicago hostess who held Barack Obama’s very first fundraiser at her lovely home. She’s also a former member of the FBI’s 10 Most Wanted list, an underground fugitive for ten years, and a domestic terrorist whose affection for violence is so deep that she publicly praised Charles Manson’s famous murder spree…with particularly vivid appreciation for Manson’s mutilation of the corpses.
    Lately, Dohrn’s husband and fellow terrorist, Bill Ayers, has been getting all the attention for his multiple connections with Obama. But Bernadine is a pretty piece of work, too. Her resumé includes the bombings of the U.S. Capitol on March 1, 1971, the Pentagon on May 19, 1972, and the home of New York State Supreme Court Justice Murtagh on February 21, 1970.

    But perhaps nothing showcases Dohrn’s lust for violence like the comments she made about the Manson murders in December 1969. Charles Manson and his harem of drug-addled hippie chicks had shocked the nation by their massacre of actress Sharon Tate, who was 8 ½ months pregnant, three of Tate’s friends, and supermarket executive Leno LaBianca and his wife, Rosemary. Dohrn approved, speechifying in front of 400 people:

    “Dig it! First they killed those pigs and then they put a fork in their bellies. Wild!”

    Well, you have to hand it to the bingo callers on Fox and Friends and Trump himself. Until the GOP sorts through the mess of Bachman-like traffic wrecks and finds a real candidate, Fox and the Trumps of the U.S. will make FEAR the GOP candidate. So, yes Donald and yes Fox and Friends this whole plot was hatched in Africa in the 1920′s. Generations later millions of stupid fellow Americans never discovered this incredible plot to place into the White House a chosen muslim man who will spread Sharīʿah شريعة‎ from state to state, ban christianity and have every woman in the U.S. including my wife and your wife in a burka and having us all stop and listen for the adhān 5 times a day so we can all pray. I mean how did we all miss the incredible plot up until now? Thank God the Donald has uncovered what no one has been able up until now. And if the GOP thinks Obama is as stupid as they let on, how on earth did this plot hatch and this guy make it all the way to the White House without any of you intelligent GOP-ers detecting back in the 50′s when it was about to happen? Where was the CIA, where were the Marines? You people and the bingo callers on Fox make me laugh my rear end off. Fear. All you have it fear , oh and Palin-Bachman.

    The REAL issue is about, What is Obama Hididng? He is a citizen whether he was born in Kenya or here. Here is the statute that covers it. Now get over the citizenship issue.

    Statute, by parentageUnder certain circumstances, U.S. citizenship can be acquired from one’s parents. The following conditions affect children born outside the U.S. and its outlying possessions to married parents (special conditions affect children born out of wedlock: see below):[5]

    If both parents are U.S. citizens, the child is a citizen if either of the parents has ever lived in the U.S. prior to the child’s birth
    If one parent is a U.S. citizen and the other parent is a U.S. national, the child is a citizen if the U.S. citizen parent has lived in the U.S. for a continuous period of at least one year prior to the child’s birth
    If one parent is a U.S. citizen and the other parent is not, the child is a citizen if
    the U.S. citizen parent has been “physically present”[6] in the U.S. before the child’s birth for a total period of at least five years, and
    at least two of those five years were after the U.S. citizen parent’s fourteenth birthday.

    The issue is now why is Obama hiding his birth certificate? Why doesn’t he have anybody that remembers him? Why is he hiding his grades?
    Obama is a liar and he can not be trusted. There is NO right of privacy for a candidate for president.
    The same clowns that are protecting the Obama “privacy” didn’t think the Bush military records were private. They didn’t think anything Bush did was private.
    When ALL of his National Guard records were released they didn’t believe them. They just kept repeating the same lies over and over.
    They have got no right to whine about the questions to Obama.

    Wrong!

The Constitution is quite clear; you must be born here to occupy the office of President.

    This is really the point here. I too, as much as I dispise this president, ignored and couldn’t care about this whole issue. But kinda like Saddam with his wmd’s, BO is childishly acting like he has something to hide and naturally it’s bringing lots of attention. Whether Saddam had them or not, we all know it didn’t work out well for him. My last visual of him he was dangling from a rope.

    I think BO id going to regret it if he keeps trying to sweep this under a rug.

    US cost of Libya war may exceed $1 billion

    Bill Jennings March 23, 2011
    US cost of Libya war may exceed $1 billionSince the cost of a Libyan no-fly zone was estimated, the U.N. coalition has extended the mission to attacking ground forces. Image: CC mashleymorgan/Flickr

    Details about the cost of the Libya war to the U.S. began to emerge as the intervention launched by a U.N. coalition against Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi concluded its fifth day. With a military budget under stress from two wars, the initial cost of Operation Odyssey Dawn to the U.S. is estimated to approach $1 billion. The U.S. cost of the Libya war is being drawn from money set aside each year for emergency military action and humanitarian relief, but a prolonged conflict may require the Pentagon to request emergency funding from Congress.
    Estimate of Libyan war costs destined to increase

    The cost of establishing a no-fly zone over Libya was initially estimated at somewhere between $500 million and $1 billion in a report issued by the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, an independent policy research institute. The report said the initial cost of the missiles and bombs required to neutralize Gadhafi’s air defense sites could run from $400 million to $800 million. Enforcing a no-fly zone after that could cost between $30 million and $100 million a week, primarily in fuel. Since those initial estimates, the coalition has extended the mission from a no-fly zone to targeting ground forces along Libya’s coastline as Gadhafi continues to take the fight to the rebels.”

    For the record, this is the 7th article Mediaite has run this month on Donald Trump’s views about the President’s birth certificate.

    By comparison, no story has been published here about MSNBC’s parent company paying zero dollars in US taxes last year. No story has been published here about MSNBC’s parent company receiving $16 billion in secret bailout money from the Federal Reserve.

    What a sad state of affairs for Mediaite — which churns out liberal fluff of the most ephemeral kind, meanwhile hiding huge stories for reasons about which we can only speculate.

    If one parent is a U.S. citizen and the other parent is not, the child is a citizen if
    the U.S. citizen parent has been “physically present”[6] in the U.S. before the child’s birth for a total period of at least five years, and
    at least two of those five years were after the U.S. citizen parent’s fourteenth birthday.

    You asked for a birth certificate? Here is is: http://factcheck.org/elections-2008/born_in_the_usa.html

    As I said the other day:

    my mom has never seen her original birth certificate – it is sealed, and she has to obtain a lawyer to view it. She was adopted and the original BC was sealed, and she was issued a new one that has my grandparents listed as her parents. She found out at 45 that she was actually adopted. She obtained a passport and all of her documents using her official BC, but not her REAL birth certificate.

    So, I think if Obama was adopted by Lolo Soetoro, which I think is a safe assumption based on his name at school being Barry Soetoro, and that they moved to Indonesia. If his mom was Stanley Ann Soetoro, Barry may have had the same name to travel out of the country with his parents…? So, if he was adopted, his birth certificate might have been changed to Barry Soetoro. If he was born and named Barack Hussien Obama II, and then adopted, that BC might be sealed…? He could have changed his name back to BHO when he got older, which is how he got his COLB.

    My point about my mom, though, is that it is possible for BO to get his COLB and passport without ever seeing his REAL birth certificate – my mom did. My mom’s COLB doesn’t represent her real birth at all. She has no actual real proof of where she was born, or who the doctor was.

    I also never believed the BO COLB because it appeared on Daily Kos first. It is easily faked, as we have seen repeatedly on the internet.

    I still don’t think he was born in Kenya, I don’t believe his mother would have traveled there to give birth. But, I do think it is weird he just won’t release it. As I have said before, I think it has to do with his adoption, or how it lists his parents relationship, or religion or his name, or something. It’s just weird he won’t release it. Especially now that this issue is growing, and getting louder. And the polls are showing more people doubt his eligibility.

    PEOPLE! Stop co-opting the opinions of Chris Matthews, Sean Hannity and any other pundit. We live in the age of massive amounts of information at your finger tips. Do the research and form your own opinion and vote your conscience not that of someone else. Real journalism is dying.

    If you’ll do the research, you will find that the so called birth certificate Chris continues to refer to is in fact a Certification of Live Birth. This only certifies that a birth certificate is in the vault in Honolulu’s Dept. of Health.

    Understand that between 1911 to 1972, anyone 1 year older or older could apply for a late birth certificate. I know, the certification says live birth certificate. That only means that the child was born alive.

    Ask yourself a question. Why not just release the vault copy? Why spend over a million dollars of your personal money to keep it suppressed?

    As to the newspaper announcements, we know that they could have been called in. How do I know? 3 teams worked for 2 1/2 months from Kenya to Honolulu during the primaries of 2008 the result of which was then used in all 19 US District Court cases filed.

    Published March 23, 2011

    As of Tuesday, a U.S. defense official told Fox News the U.S. has fired 161 Tomahawk cruise missiles into Libyan territory, with 24 missiles being fired overnight Monday into Tuesday. Each missile is priced at $1 million to $1.5 million apiece and dispatched B-2 stealth bombers — round-trip from Missouri — to drop 2,000-pound bombs on Libyan sites.

    That’s a total flying time of 25 hours, with the operating cost for one hour priced at least $10,000.
    Yet those numbers only provide part of the costs. The B-2 bombers require expensive fuel — and rely on air tankers to refuel in flight — and probably needed parts replaced upon their return to Whiteman Air Force Base. The pilots most certainly will get combat pay.

    Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/03/23/role-libya-costs-hundreds-millions/#ixzz1HusZ1GGH

    But Lugar questioned whether the money being spent on military operations in Libya would be better spent elsewhere.

    “Estimates are that about $1 billion has already been spent on an undeclared war in Libya, some would say only hundreds of millions, and that that will diminish in the days ahead,” Lugar said. “But [who] knows how long this goes on? And furthermore, who has really budgeted for Libya at all? I have not really heard the administration come forward saying that, ‘We’re going to have to devote these funds, folks, and therefore it’s something else we’ll have to go or it simply adds to the deficit.’”

    the U.S. citizen parent has been “physically present”[6] in the U.S. before the child’s birth for a total period of at least five years, and

    The issue is now why is Obama hiding his birth certificate? Why doesn’t he have anybody that remembers him? Why is he hiding his grades?
    Obama is a liar and he can not be trusted. There is NO right of privacy for a candidate for president.
    The same clowns that are protecting the Obama “privacy” didn’t think the Bush military records were private. They didn’t think anything Bush did was private.
    When ALL of his National Guard records were released they didn’t believe them. They just kept repeating the same lies over and over.

    @sarainitaly: $400m + $30m or $60m isn’t a billion, while $800m + $200m is just barely.

    And, what is included in the Center’s estimates because that’s probably why they have such a wide range on intial costs. Reportedly, the ships were already in the Mediterranean, so are they including fuel costs? The sailors will be getting paid, either way. I’m not sure if there’s a big difference between their rate of pay when deployed and that for hazardous duty, but they were already getting paid and deployed, so the hazardous duty would be the only added expense.

    The Post lists that the bombs have cost somewhere around a mil and the plane cost $30m. There are fuel costs for the sorties and whatnot, but if you exclude all of the fixed expenses, it’s probably closer to the lower end of the $400m to $800m range and Donald Trump has no more info on the question than anyone else.

    Except that doesn’t sync with this: http://travel.state.gov/law/citizenship/citizenship_5199.html “Birth Abroad to One Citizen and One Alien Parent in Wedlock.” Not sure why the stipulations were what they were during the time that includes when Obama was born, but it seems pretty clear if he was born outside the U.S., citizenship would not have been transmitted automatically because of his mother’s age (18) when he was born and that not meeting the requirement of her residing in the U.S. for ‘5 years after the age of 14.’ Not saying he wasn’t born in the U.S. (which would make the State Dept. laws moot.) But it seems according to the requirements in 1961 it’s wrong to assume he would have automatically been conferred citizenship because his mother was a U.S. citizen.

    MR. GREGORY: Will it require more funds from the government for this military operation?

    SEN. LUGAR: Of course. And that’s what I stated from the beginning. There has to be objectives and a plan and an agreement that we’re prepared to devote the military forces but also the money. It makes no sense, sort of in the front room, where in Congress we are debating seemingly every day the deficits, the debt ceiling situation coming up, the huge economic problems we have; but in the back room we are spending money on a military situation in Libya. Estimates are that about $1 billion has already been spent on an undeclared war in Libya.

    @sarainitaly: Again, it seems to be a question of semantics, but you and notsofast have shown me that they say it could cost as much as a billion and there’s a big range for the estimated startup, but I can find multiple quotes that say some of the numbers being reported sound too high and I can’t fathom the math.

    Need I remind you that President Obama’s trip to India was reportedly going to cost $200m before somebody asked how and just a couple of weeks ago, there were estimates that it’d cost $7.5m to pull tape from the Wisconsin Capitol’s walls.

    Also, while I’m back in here, I mentioned earlier that Trump occasionally gets sweetheart deals based on his name recognition and visibility…

    The underlying link that I used in one of my old blogs was no longer active, so I had to look for a dupe, but back in ’05, Trump was given interest in spectacular hotel and development project in Dubai for absolutely no investment, based entirely on his ability to attract interest and for the use of his brand.

    The project fell through and was cancelled in the UAE credit crunch, so it never actually bore fruit and not only do I feel it demonstrates the old-fashioned business advantage that he derives from being high profile, but the experience may also be a factor into how he views the Middle East.

    Looks like the 0bama doctrine to me:

    Marxism
    Main articles: Marxism and Socialism (Marxism)
    Karl Marx, 1875.

    In the most influential of all socialist theories, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels believed the consciousness of those who earn a wage or salary (the “working class” in the broadest Marxist sense) would be molded by their “conditions” of “wage-slavery”, leading to a tendency to seek their freedom or “emancipation” by throwing off the capitalist ownership of society. For Marx and Engels, conditions determine consciousness and ending the role of the capitalist class leads eventually to a classless society in which the state would wither away.

    Marx wrote: “It is not the consciousness of [people] that determines their existence, but their social existence that determines their consciousness.”[40]

    Like when you folks claim that all the conservatives defended Bush no matter what he did. Most conservatives opposed Bush when he pushed “No child left behind” with Ted Kennedy. They opposed Bush on his amnesty policy. They opposed Bush when he signed all the big spending bills instead of vetoing them.

    The peanut farmer gave us the Community Reinvestment Act in Oct. of 1977. BJ Clinton and Janet Reno’s Justice department gave COMMUNITY ORGANIZERS (read: shake down artists) more teeth, and “rights” through the CRA, in the 90′s. They were given cover to go after banks to FORCE more people into homes that could not afford them. Your boys, Dodd, Frank, and the still currently criminally investigated, Maxine Waters, stood by and watched as government backed loans became more and more another liberal, government-backed Ponzi scheme, leaving taxpayers holding the bag. The housing collapse originated with the peanut farmer and his CRA. Period.

  • http://www.obesitywars.net/ Klaatu

    I have a slightly different theory about this whole birth certificate issue, and the reason that President Obama hasn’t presented it… yet. I think he wants to use the original to its full advantage. Oh, sure, presenting it now would diffuse this “birther” nonsense, but that wouldn’t be taking advantage of its awesome potential. What if President Obama is so crafty, that he’s “allowing” the Birther nonsense to fester. Allowing candidates like Trump to join the Birther bandwagon, only to make them look like bigoted fools, right before election time. My predictio… The President will release his birth certificate when the election nears, and the Birther Train is full of GOPster candidates.

    Your right about the transparency issue. But can’t we both agree that no matter who is in the white house that there isn’t ever going to be complete transparency? Expecting 100% transparency is expecting too much. Hats not to say we shouldn’t demand it.

    As far as transparency on the legislation there is NO excuse not to do it. These are laws that will be made public after they are passed so why not produce them before they are passed. Also when it comes to meetings on legislation there is no excuse for them to be private. That does not include private meetings with the president or the vice president. When it comes to defence secrets they need to kept secret.

    I have a slightly different theory about this whole birth certificate issue, and the reason that President Obama hasn’t presented it… yet. I think he wants to use the original to its full advantage. Oh, sure, presenting it now would diffuse this “birther” nonsense, but that wouldn’t be taking advantage of its awesome potential.

    What you fools keep glossing over is that Trump is not only calling his BC into question, but his ENTIRE hidden past. This will eventually lead to his numerous SSN’s, his missing and hidden transcripts, his admission records, his senate e-mails and correspondence, his thesis, his passport info, his past, period. And because of the bang up job of the media, more and more Americans are asking questions.

    I still run into people who know NOTHING about Jeremiah Wright, 0bama’s lack of respect for the US Constitution, or that Michelle never liked America! GO DONALD TRUMP!

    The peanut farmer gave us the Community Reinvestment Act in Oct. of 1977. BJ Clinton and Janet Reno’s Justice department gave COMMUNITY ORGANIZERS (read: shake down artists) more teeth, and “rights” through the CRA, in the 90’s. They were given cover to go after banks to FORCE more people into homes that could not afford them. Your boys, Dodd, Frank, and the still currently criminally investigated, Maxine Waters, stood by and watched as government backed loans became more and more another liberal, government-backed Ponzi scheme, leaving taxpayers holding the bag. The housing collapse originated with the peanut farmer and his CRA. Period.

    Jaime Gorelick and Franklin Raines made out like bandits while driving Fannie and Freddie into the ground. Jaime Gorelick also gave us the Gorelick wall, which blocked the FBI and the CIA from exchanging information. BJ was continually being investigated for one felonious crime after another, after all. And Gorelick sat on top of the 9-11 cover-up for BJ.

    Bonus points: guess who is on the short list to head 0bama’s FBI???

    The Left was foolish to push Bush’s cocaine use and attempts to dodge Vietnam. Something tells me that the majority of Americans are equally less enthused by extreme right concerns over Obama’s citizenship or religious beliefs. Appealing to this crowd might win a GOP candidate a few votes in the primaries, but they will get nowhere talking this nonsense once the nomination is over.

For example it was clear to me what the mission was in Libya. He outline this prior to the bombings and todate he has done everything he said he would. Time will tell whether this has scope creep or not. Same with Obamacare. You may not like the end result, but he even talked about this in his campaigh, so why is was this a surprise to everyone? Same with the bailouts and stimulus programs this should have been no surprise to anyone. You may not like the position it put the country in debt wise, but it was clear. I for one feel we as a country would have been much worse off had we not done what we have did. Nobody could have prodected the unemployment numbers and his attempt to be forth right he through out a 8% highwater number which he should never done and it has been played back to him many times. The conservative media will never give him credit for any accomplishments. Is he a perfect president, no, and there has never been one before him.

    Nope. The peanut farmer gave us the CRA. The CRA was given more TEETH under BJ and the development of CDO’s EXPLODED in 1994 from ZERO. They took a severe hit in 2001 and 2002 due to the junk bond market failure, that BJ oversaw and led to the very recession that Bush inherited.

    Nope. The peanut farmer gave us the CRA. The CRA was given more TEETH under BJ and the development of CDO’s EXPLODED in 1994 from ZERO. They took a severe hit in 2001 and 2002 due to the junk bond market failure, that BJ oversaw and led to the very recession that Bush inherited. The origins of the housing crisis and financial collapse is due entirely to the community organizers emboldened by Janet Reno to advance the failed CRA. thank you Jimmy Carter.

    Obama will never voluntarily allow his original birth certificate to be disclosed, because it shows his claimed father, Obama the black Muslim Luo tribesman, is not in fact his birth father. The Luo adopted him.

    Resolution of these matters will require official investigations by agencies like a congressional committee, which can subpoena documents and things, such as birth certificates and DNA. That’s the only way to ascertain Obama’s actual identity.

    Why can’t Trump get RINO Issa, Chairman of House Oversight, to subpoena the “vital records” referred to by Dr. Fukino to show Obama was at birth a natural born U.S. citizen (“The Manchurian President” page 76). Trust Dr. Fukino, but verify.

    Odds are the “vital records” are Obama’s original birth certificate and amended birth certificate. Since Dr. Fukino found Obama to be natural born, the Luo tribesman could not be his birth father, and “Dreams from My Father” was a colossal hoax. That must be a key reason why Obama will never voluntarily release the original birth certificate. That and distracting the People from Mr. Obama’s acquisition of Indonesian citizenship as a young lad.

Too bad about that wasted tuition! LOL.

    Well yes, reading Marx is a bad way to learn about economics. That is true. Its mostly gibberish. As for our military, which is owned completely by the federal government, and funded by tax dollars, it is quite obviously socialist. I know that is an inconvenient fact, but that is how our forefathers set it up. They really did not have anything against socialist systems. That is why, for example, Washington went for the creation of the federal government owned “First Bank”. Of course socialist systems are incorporated in the governments of almost every country, besides our own. Especially Israel.

    And read the federal reports on their conclusion??? Genius! I trust Sowell’s reasoning much more than the wolves guarding the hen house. Novel idea, huh?

    The American Spectator has a great article as well. From it:

    The problem is summed up succinctly by Stan Liebowitz of the University of Texas at Dallas:

    From the current handwringing, you’d think that the banks came up with the idea of looser underwriting standards on their own, with regulators just asleep on the job. In fact, it was the regulators who relaxed these standards–at the behest of community groups and “progressive” political forces.… For years, rising house prices hid the default problems since quick refinances were possible. But now that house prices have stopped rising, we can clearly see the damage done by relaxed loan standards.

    And the full article: http://spectator.org/archives/2009/02/06/the-true-origins-of-this-finan

    Always good to read, and read, and read both sides to make up your own mind. I’m still waiting for the economy major Valkyrie to chime in. He’s mysteriously absent. OOOOhhhhhh Vaaaaaal…

    Meritocracy, in the first, most administrative sense, is a system of government or other administration (such as business administration) wherein appointments are made and responsibilities assigned to individuals based upon their “merits”, namely intelligence, credentials, and education,[1] determined through evaluations or examinations.

    Although meritocracy as a term is a relatively recent invention, the concept originates from the works of Han Feizi and Confucius, along with other Legalist and Confucian philosophers. The first meritocracy was implemented in the 2nd century BC, by the Han Dynasty, which introduced the world’s first civil service exams evaluating the “merit” of officials.[2]

    Meritocracy itself is not a form of government, but rather an ideology. Meritocracy itself is frequently confused as being a type of government, rather than correctly as a methodology or factor used in or for, the appointment of individuals to government. Individuals appointed to a meritocracy are judged based upon certain merits which could range from intelligence to morality to general aptitude to specific knowledge. A criticism of this methodology is that [3] “merit” itself is a highly subjective term, potentially lacking in clarity and therefore open to misuse.

    Certification of Live Birth. This only certifies that a birth certificate is in the vault in Honolulu’s Dept. of Health.

    Understand that between 1911 to 1972, anyone 1 year older or older could apply for a late birth certificate. I know, the certification says live birth certificate. That only means that the child was born alive.

    Ask yourself a question. Why not just release the vault copy? Why spend over a million dollars of your personal money to keep it suppressed?

    As to the newspaper announcements, we know that they could have been called in. How do I know? 3 teams worked for 2 1/2 months from Kenya to Honolulu during the primaries of 2008 the result of which was then used in all 19 US District Court cases filed. My teams that produced much more evidence, 452 pages worth. I’ve only posted the simplest of questions herein.

    But “socialism” is not a totalistic system. It is a sub-system. Many countries have socialist medical care, and even government owned banks, but otherwise, they run the capitalist system. The utility of using a socialist system with respect to our military needs would seem to me to justify also using the same model to deal with our collective medical needs. Using the tool of socialism, in a limited and prudent way, is not the same thing as your communist takeover dream.

    On Page 1 and then continuing on pages 6-9 in this thread, I asked how Trump arrived at the billion dollar figure for what our Libyan operations have cost, thus far or “already” as he phrases it in the clip. In response, I was pointed toward several articles quoting one thinktank that estimated a range of $400m to $1b depending on the article and for undefined “initial costs”.

    ABC just published numbers from an official Pentagon estimate of $600m for the first week.

    No. It is a “right” issue. If anyone and every one has the “right” where does “the few, the proud the marines” fit? Non military are clueless to the internal struggle they created. They’ve neutered the military. There is no honor when just anyone that liberals decide can serve, can serve. Discrimination suits are coming. Just wait.

    where are the statistics on these mass droves of people leaving the military anyhow?

    no you’d be inconsistent, if someone were to say to bush release all records regarding the reasons for invading Iraq for instance and then was court martialed for disobeying orders, you conservatives would have a field day attacking him.

    You have confused the concept of refusing to take illegal orders from an illegitimate CIC with taking a conscientious objective stance on principle. In which case, one would ask: why sign up anyway, if you don’t want to kill, and/or die, to defend your country?

    good for you. Now imagine how it would feel if they said your wife or her father for that matter wasn’t allowed to serve in a particular unit based on their skin color and then they told you it would just be too hard to deal with a desegrated military. Same thing, different bias.

    Imagine trying to run a military that has been around since the beginning of our founding and then having an outside entity that tells you how you will now run it. Wow. I don’t want my family in your military, and they are leaving on their own free will, but, beyond DADT, the ROI are wrong, and so many more will flee from military service. The ones who leave for good, will have no tales of honor and service to country to speak of that will inspire younger generations to enlist. Good luck with your military, and gird your loins.

    well there is a waiting period on the dadt bill, the president, the secretary of defense and joint chiefs of staff have to certify based on the information from the pentagon that the repeal is working. So basically it’s a wait and see game.

    most of the harrasement is usually targeted against the gay person, that’s been the fear from the military to begin with. And like I said, if the gay person is willing to deal with the consequences of coming out to his fellow soldiers then so be it.

    A certified birth certificate is a very different animal than a Certificate of Live Birth (COLB) that was posted on the Internet and claimed as proof of birth in Hawaii. COLB’s are also noted in newspaper’s as births. Again, more nonsense. In all 57 states, there is only one standard for proof of birth and that is the Certificate Of Birth, certified and under seal. Stop the BS and obfuscation of fact and make the case of live birth by producing the document.

    Go ask that birther Colonel to find his birth certificate. Isn’t he in the hosegow in a carrotsuit?

    OK morons, listen up!

    GBR (whom the family lovingly refers to as “Goober-Brained Retard) put our son, BOMBSHELL JR. on a bus to Thule, Greenland. He told our boy there would be a kitten waiting for him when he got to Greenland, and you know how our son is ALWAYS asking everyone he meets to buy him a kitten.

    Well, the kid is sort of dimwitted just like his ol’ man, and so I’m stepping in until we get him back to provide moral support for my ol’ man, and you’d danged well better NOT mess with me! Just know that I am GBR’s ol’ lady, and give me the respect I demand.

    Did Matt Schneider attend the Joseph Goebbels school of PR? The spin is in and Mediaite’s really overdoing the Trump trump up on Birtherism. Trump may be a great real estate honcho but he is equally well known for being a self-serving buffoon.It’s about time that you Obama haters realized that you’re being played for suckers, and it’s probably deliberate on the part of the devilishly clever Democrats. There’s tons of proof that Obama was born in the US of A. Yes, there might be some things buried about his background, but don’t you think that’s been true of many Presidents? You just don’t get that this guy is handling more stuff in a positive, brilliant, professional manner than any President since Roosevelt, Eisenhower and Johnson. All you can say about him is that he was born in Kenya or wherever, that he once slipped and said there are 57 states and reads from a teleprompter and, of course, he’s a Muslim communist/fascist/socialist hater of America. Look at what he did recently in Libya. He goes to Rio, but at the same time he’s organized a great way to save a lot of lives in Libya and push Ghadaffi further out the door without getting us overly involved in the process. Also, he was handed a mess that he had very little to do in creating. How nuts can you get and how far will your denial take you. A few years from now most of you will deny you ever went on about this garbage, just like you’re wondering how you ever thought Bush II was a great politician. Get a life and join the rest of humanity.

    Consider the hypocrisy of a President who is insistent that every American must show proof of having an Insurance policy but doesn’t need to show proof of citizenship before acquiring the benefits of being an American.

    Then again, I had to show proof of citizenship when I was getting a Top Secret clearance as a rocket scientist. My father and mother and three brothers all had to show the same documents, plus others. With Obama, I knew more about Palin in 4 days than I’ve learned about Obama in 4 years.

    He could show the documents and settle the questions. Not only the birth certificate, but what passports did he do all his traveling on to Africa, the Middle East and Russia? What does he show on his applications to American Colleges? Where did the money come from for his tuition?

    Obama restricts that information. He has spent millions of dollars hiding that information. Such effort to suppress such innocent documentation just generate more interest in just what he is hiding. Simple to solve, if you are innocent

    Obimbo produces a legitimate “BIRTH-CERTIFICATE”, proves legal citizenship…..end of story. The Liberal apologizers can run as much interference as they want, the fact is, he needs only to show a legal birth-certificate…what’s the problem?!

  • Armageddon T Thunderbird

    This is interesting….. The actual birth certificate gets produced many times, evidence is shown that no moneys have been paid to any lawyers to cover up anyting and these stupid birthers just don’t seem to get it. The real reason why Trump is playing the birther card is because is is so easy and it still works on the extreme number of red necked idtios who get their news from opinion pushing fake news outlets like Fox News. These people are nothing more than a collective of mindless idiots who are simply Obama haters that love to be led around by the nose by people with absolutely no personal or journalistic integrity like Limbauagh, Palin, O’ Reilly, Hannity, Beck, Coulter, Bachman, Huchabee and all the kids on Fox.

  • timcajun

    I think several of these birther nuts, believe this crap! The rest, such as Trump and anyone with half a brain are playing to the simpletons. Trump doesn’t want this to end, for then he looks foolish! Trump was ready to spend 100 million to become president, why not offer “one million” to anyone who can prove Obama wasn’t born in this country, then he would walk right into the oval office!(for a fact). This will never happen, EVER, because it’s all a load of crap!
    Every tea that says the reason it won’t be discovered is because it’s being covered up,(another load) should learn to get over it and shut up.If your beat, your beat, but it’s all a lie anyway!
