The birther resurgance

So the Arizona Secretary of State is demanding Hawaii show him Obama's Super Original Long Form Birth Certificate. Plus, someone at Breitbart found a flyer from 1991 written to promote Obama's literary agency that says Obama's born in Hawaii. The assistant publicist has said it's a fact checking error, but the birthers...

It's clear at this point that they will never go away. Long after Obama's no longer President, they will be challenging other Democrats of an inappropriate background and hue. Like nowadays, they'll subside for a while, but a single story will bring them back exactly as they were, true believers till the end.

Anyhow, I'm finding a new kind birther these days. In contract to the conspiratorial "He's Malcom X's clone born in Kenya, I know from some pixels on the third faked certificate" types, these guys are eternally reluctantly persuaded that he's Kenyan types. Examining the evidence, they're finally coming around to the truth. Just like they did last month, and the month before.

Anyhow, here's the highlights of the 800 post thread:

w1andsodidwe echoes the party line here:

i guess this proves Obama is a liar. Either then or now. Which is it Barry? Or can’t you remember?

GBA knows the 'Obama lied on a flyer 20 years ago" is weak, so he punches it up a bit:

So who are you going to believe: a fake (according to Arpaio's cold case posse) birth certificate or a promotional booklet produced in 1991 by Barack Obama's then-literary agency, Acton & Dystel?

Since the promo booklet is older than his fake birth certificate, then is it more valid or is it like software and the fake BC is the latest rev, so it's more valid?

What do you suppose the blackmail value of the truth is in today's market?

How much is it costing us, in blackmail, to have the messiah as potus?

Iron Munro knows every hangnail folks at Breitbart.com gets is Obama's fault!

If you work for Breitbart the odds of you having a sudden heart attack or other fatal episode of some sort are now about 1,000,000 times higher than the national average.

Carry_Okie has a suspect:

H-I-L-L-A-R-Y-!

To Democrats, staying in power is life itself. If they think they can't hold a seat, they'll force an incumbent into retirement to exchange new lies for old.

This story somehow convinced dfwgator to vote for Romney

I am now firmly on the ABO [Anybody But Obama] bandwagon.

Yosemitest has been steeping in this for ages:

The forgeries I'm aware of, are the three Birth Cretificate Barack Hussein Obama II has forged.
I don't trust evidence put forth by Obama supporters.
The disappearance of too much evidence on Obama is strong enough for me to know that he was born in Kenya.

a fool in paradise
knows Obama said he was Kenyan just so he could insult America better.

  I think he claimed to be from Kenya because he saw it as benefiting his career. He is a habitual liar.

It also permitted him the opportunity to talk smack against the United States among his peers with the "eyes of an outside observer" (some who knew him then said as much recently).

VanDeKoik is at last convinced by the avalanche of evidence: THIS SIMPLY CANNOT BE A TYPO!

Too many times this has been said and written over the past decades to not be true.

If it was not, why didnt this guy, whom I can only assume wasn’t doing anything more important back then, not call them up and say “Hey, I was born in Hawaii, dufus”? PA-RIVER is also starting to believe:

I'm starting to believe he was born in Kenya.

I'm thinking the woman got pregnant by FMD [Frank Marshall Davis], and was then shipped off to Kenya to give him credentials of BHO at birth. The objective was to keep FMD out of jail.

I think the SOB is an illegitimate bastard and never had legal citizenship. Everything about the SOB is fake. His wife is a beard. His name is a beard.

And we also have our Obama is gay treat as well!

At last, BerryDingle is no longer in doubt:

Hussein Ubama was not born in the U.S. and he can’t prove he was. His citizenship is no longer in doubt.

jcsjcm knows Natural Born citizen means you're genetically loyal to the US:

Obama’s parents hearts were never with the United States. There was no natural flow of allegiance through them.

I wish our country would come together on this issue and realize that to be a natural born is to naturally flow through both parents. This is how it should be!

arderkrag:

“Natural born citizen” is commonly understood in conservative circles to incoporate BOTH concepts. Born to at least a naturalised citizen and born within the borders of the US or it territories.

Conservative circles since about 2008...

DiogenesLamp also knows "Natural Born Citizen" is code for "Loyal American"

It has long been my understanding that citizenship is a characteristic of nature, not of the location you happen to be when you are born. Just as an unborn child is a person even before it emerges, so is an unborn citizen still a citizen before it is born.

That characteristic which makes a child both a person and a citizen is that which is acquired from it's mother and father.

John McCain was born to citizen parents in the service of our nation, and he himself fought and suffered on our behalf. I do not regard him as having any taint of foreign influence about him, and that is after all, the salient point behind article II anyway.

SamAdams76 hopes Romney goes birther. So do I.

Mitt Romney can make this a page one issue tomorrow. All he has to do is mention it in a press release or campaign appearance and the mainstream media will go absolutely berserk. Of course, Romney will take a beating in the media but like the homosexual marriage issue, it will drive even more voters to the Romney camp. It all depends on whether Romney has the balls.

liberalh8ter is sure Obama's goose is cooked this time!

Can't wait for Sheriff Joe's next presser. I'm not particularly handy but I'd like the opportunity to swing a hammer at least once as the gallows are built.

Sheriff Joe is the new Freeper hero on this, now that Orly Taitz has imploded.

TheBigJ knows that America is over:

“President”?

Excuse me, the office of the Presidency is vacant.

Doesn’t matter what Oprah or Jimmy Fallon or lamestream hack media propaganda ministry or so called conservative reps spout.

Simple fact is no clear certifiable documentation has been presented by Zero affirming Natural Born Citizenship (or much else in background for that matter) because he’s a fraud. Everything hidden, scrubbed is for a reason.

Currently a foreign born non-natural born citizen and illegal alien is squatting in the White Hut.

The Republic has been usurped, we have been in Constitutional crisis.

John McCain is also ineligible being born on Panama soil yet on the 2008 ballot, just as Roger Calero, born in Nicaragua, Socialist Worker’s Party, on the ballot in 5 states is ineligible.

j_hig likes how Breitbart didn't go full birther:

Breitbart News has the right approach. If you say “See, he was born in Kenya and he’s not eligible” you won’t be taken seriously. But you say that the spirit of the requirement to be a native born American is not met because Obama feels his link to Kenya, was raised in Indonesia, and even when he did come back, living in Hawaii is quite separated from the mainland and was only recently a state when he was born. While he may be loyal to this country, he is not 100% “from here” and is more of a citizen of the world.

Yaelle also knows Rush is secretly on their side:

Rush is very knowing on this topic when he can be discreet. No doubt he was ordered by clear channel to not speak of it. But his tone told volumes last week when Drudge put up the Breitbart story, just as rush was going off the air (coincidence?). Rush very carefully and ominously sent his entire audience to the lead story on Drudge right then, spelling out the link.

He does what he CAN.

hummingbird knows Margaret Thatcher woulda kicked Obama out!

"Are they [Congressional Republicans] afraid of this man? Are they afraid of telling the American people who Obama is?"

Kinda' looks that way and that makes them ineligible for holding a congressional seat.

Why don't they put on "their big girl panties?" Why don't they man up?

Don't any of them remember a real man: Margaret Thatcher.

More of a man than this sorry lot we have.

There must be some really bad backroom on this; why else is ANYBODYscarred .
