History and Analysis of Right-Wing attempts at Coup d'etat

All Obama has to do is produce the long-form birth certificate with the doctor and hospital on it, the legal witnesses to the birth.

"Bizarre"?

Bizarre is Obama spending a million buck to do something that could be stopped with a few bucks for the long-form.

Just why did his mother leave Hawaii in just two weeks with her newborn son to go to the university she attended in Washington state to study anthropology? Something doesn't jibe there.

It is called "ACCOUNTABILTY"., and it is the bane of narcissists.

Karen, I direct your attention to the fact that the 'Obama Camp' has spent over one million dollars to keep his birth certificate from being examined. Why?

PS And is only one of many articles on this fact.

But Karen, you should know Whiny Losers both Left and Right never like the outcome of the vote results, preferring their elected choice as president.  The left threw a fit when Gore Lost out to Bush, the Birth Certificate thing is about the only thing they (grasp on straws) have on Obama.

He has produced enough evidence apparently to please the authorizing bodies. None of the highly paid lawyers or right think tanks in the Beltway are seemingly either supporters of or willing to litigate on the Birther conspiracy theory. There is so much money and power in the beltway, if someone thought there was one hide of truth to this it would be in the courts.

The Birther movement is simply borne out of fear, and in some, not instances, subconscious racism. Some of a simple mind are fearful of any change. Some cannot accept that the country chose to take a step to the left, it caused apoplexy in them. Some can't believe a black man is in the Whitehouse, to them it represents the final corruption of their ideal of America. They couldn't beat him in the election so the only possible explanation is he must have cheated, hence the Birther movement

You see it when you see the comments like belwo, if there hadn't been an economic crisis then McCain would have one. They feel cheated. There was a recession, it forced people to actually take a look at what was on offer and they made a choice. The angry right, the race, religion and rifle crowd, can never accept this hence the Tea Parties, the Birthers etc. However, they are fringe in today's America, not even centrist. It will take them some time to get used to the idea.

Don't think you could actually pass a retroactive amendment do you?

What is done, was done under existing law. Getting an amendment thru 37 states would take years, even then it could only cover future candidates. If it were found that Obama was not in fact, a native born citizen, the chances of an amendment of that nature getting thru congress would be at or near zero.

By the bye....53% in a two candidate race is hardly being "roundly" elected. At least he did manage a majority...something Clinton never did.

Rory, if any links to any movement or ideology could be conjectured to have been an ideology with which Timothy McVeigh or Terry Nichols may have had an affinity or possible links, it would be with those that shared a similar mindset about the United States and the federal government, like the beliefs held by those in the Freeman Movement of Montana.  

Timothy McVeigh's beliefs appear to have aligned with the beliefs of many of those involved in the sovereignty, militia and patriot movements.

Many are aware that when he was arrested in 1995, on the tee shirt he was wearing was pictured a tree with blood droplets, with the Thomas Jefferson quote that refers to martyrdom written on it:

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."

As Ministers Malcolm X and Farrakhan had nothing to do with any attempt at a coup d'etat in the United States or anywhere else, did not/have not called for the overthrow of the U.S. government, what does any of that have to do with anything being discussed here? 

As discussed here, a coup or coup d 'etat would be the unlawful, sudden overthrow of a government, according to  Merriam Webster.

A coup does not necessarily have to originate from the military, as the Cuban Revolution, led by Fidel Castro, did not emanate from the military. They trained and employed guerrilla warfare tactics.

However, the previous leader of Cuba prior to the Castro led revolution, Fulgenicio Batista, did stage a military coup against the former Cuban leader Carlos Manuel de Céspedes y Quesada.

If there had been no economic crisis, McCain would have won. He was leading until the collapse of Wall Street, an issue that the low-ranking graduate of Annapolis knew next to nothing about.

And McCain did not represent the anti-bailout wing of the republicans and the independents at all.

Obama presented himself as a candidate acceptable to centrists and independents. His first choices went counter to his campaign, keeping Gates as secretary of defense, for example.

But, dealing with the unpopularity of his monster bust-out deficits has denied him the "narcissistic supply" that he got by touting his mixture of centrist and leftist rhetoric. Retreating, it turns out that he is actually just an incompetent who has the rhetoric of change down but who understands nothing of economics and is too vain to admit to being wrong, as he was on the Surge, for example.

What we see is not change, but the usual politics to help Wall Street, with "regulatory capture", as Goldman Sachs people take over the SEC.

The combination of incompetence and vanity has pushed him to fall back on his more radical side, but the ironic effect has been to galvanize the middle against him, in effect organizing the independents, let alone the disenfranchised right that has been upset with the republican free trade and immigration amnesty policies for a long time.

What is really happening is that both parties are dying. Their leadership is being replaced. Then the people, the sovereign people of the US, will get their way on issues such as energy independence, legal controls on immigration and very, very possibly the return of our troops from places such as Germany, Kosovo, South Korea and Japan.

We will set up something viable for social security and health care and have it be "local" while we think "global".

Why was there no "revolution at the ballot box"  to prevent the election of Obama? 

Probably because Americans are not as racist as some would have us to believe . . . 

Also, after eight years of Bush, the Republican party would have had to pull a rabbit out of a hat in order to get one of  its own elected. 

Yes! McVeigh was pissed off over what went down at Waco at the hands of Dowe Burnem and How. That was a new  cabinet post formed under Janet Reno's direction. LOL!
