NP Rank:
Usurp the Presidency: By Any Means Necessary!

How did the citizenship rumor get started? Ironically, it began when the Obama campaign tried to debunk some other conspiracies. After Obama locked up the nomination in early June, low-level talk radio and blog chatter peddled rumors that Obama's real middle name was Muhammad, that his father was not really Barack Obama, and that he was not really born in Hawaii. The campaign released a facsimile of Obama's certificate of live birth. Requested from the state in 2007, the certificate reported that Obama was, indeed, born in Honolulu at 7:24 p.m. on Aug. 4, 1961.
The certificate was a bullet that didn't put down the horse. Why, skeptics asked, release a new form from Hawaii instead of the original paper that Obama's parents got in 1961—the one that Obama found in a box of his dad's knickknacks in Dreams From My Father? They quickly came up with an explanation: The certificate was forged. Anonymous digital image experts with handles like Techdude and Polarik sprung from the woodwork to prove (shades of Rathergate!) that pixels, spacing, and indentation on the form indicated that the Obama campaign had created the certificate with Adobe Photoshop. The state of Hawaii's official statement that the certificate was legitimate didn't make a dent—after all, who is Registrar of Vital Statistics Alvin Onaka to argue with Techdude?

Apparently, those who are not satisfied with responses, or what are perceived by many challengers as insufficient responses to questions about President Elect Obama's citizenship and place of birth, are prepared to flood the courts throughout the United States of America with litigation, presumably until they are granted an outcome that meets with their approval.

`obviously Alfred E. Hussian Barak Obama is not a natural American citizen, or he would produce the physical evidence, and not leave it locked away. This is another scam, thrusted upon us by the sleaze-bags in the democRATic party. BTW, I just love all the political news coming out of Hussian's home state, and am equally glad that a Jackson is getting alot of air time as well. :D

Truly, this is fine example of Republican Party rationale, reasoning and inclusiveness.

sure, dunkelburger, whenever even a suspicion of wrong doing is asserted against a conservative we must investigate thoroughly and demand immediate access to all records, but if a democRAT is caught with his hand in the cookie jar it is ignored and white washed over like Monica's stained dress.

It's "dunkelberg". If you plan on making personal attacks, please show examples of where I have posted such comments.
If you can stop your whining long enough, I would like to remind you of Rep. William Jefferson. He certainly did not get a pass. Did New Jersey Gov. James McGreevey get a pass?
Well?
Where have I argued that a Democrat accused of wrongdoing should get a pass?
Well?
Perhaps all you have to offer is bluster, lies and a feigned morality.

Infideltiy shouldn't be a prosectuable offense at least not in relationship to public office. Misuse of public funding to make it happen is another story.
Infidelity harmed a marriage...It didn't cause the deaths of well over 1 million innocent foriegners, thousands of American soldiers, it didn't bankrupt a nation, it didn't sweep criminal lending under the rug, it didn't write a new regulation excusing itself from prosecution for war crimes . It didn't let people rot in trailors that are emitting toxic fumes. It didn't bribe the american public with tax rebates or create an environment of paranoia, division, and fear while passing legislation to encroach upon civil liberites.
Clinton gave us a surplus, he lowered unemployment, increased the minimum wage, established Americorps, talked about HIV for the first time, protected women's reproductive rights and so on...In reality a conservative sociopathically manipulates an environment to get away with whatever they want and then write legislation excusing themselves from punishment while leaving not only their own country but the entire world and world economy weaker.
Not unlike your tunnel vision that allows you to basically write graffiti anonymously on this topic while failing to see the bigger picture or having any regard for whoever else is participating here.

Remember William Jefferson, the Louisiana congressman who was indicted last year on bribery, racketeering and money laundering charges?Well, he's still in Congress, and he's likely to stay there for a while.
NEW YORK – A former aide to New Jersey Gov. James E. McGreevey who claims he was sexually harassed by the governor says he won't sue, apparently eliminating the prospect of an embarrassing court fight. -no jail time yet served
Billy-Bob Clinton, our liberal-leftwing, mainstream media declared first Black President, got impeached for lying to congress, but off the hook for cattlegate, whitewater, Mena Ak. drug smuggling, Gennifer Flowers, Susan Coleman, Vincent Foster, Katherine Wiley, Chinese money laundering -OMG, the tip of the iceburg here, the Clinton's are so unbelievably corrupt it's sickening. -awaiting a post in Hussian's cabinet along with his "life-partner", or whatever she is; Hill.
- and I could go on with the attempts to steal the presidency in 2000 by Algore in Fla with his continual re-counts -of which he lost ALL even after denying a count of absentee ballots by our military overseas. and so on..
sorry about the name there, drunkel. Have a happy day. :)

Once again, you are blowing smoke, aside from being rude.
You may thank the NowPublic masters for giving you the anonymity cowards so often crave.
I see. You still haven't gotten over The Clintons and here they've gone and elected black man president. How tragic for you.
Well?
Where are the specific examples that I said Democrats under investigation should get a pass?
Where are the specific examples that any Democratic Party official said officials, elected or otherwise, deserve a pass due to their affiliation?
Or, will we be treated to more of your adolescent lies and false charges?
at 09:43 on December 11th, 2008
you are WRONG AGAIN, dunkle, the Clintons have not gone away, and we will have to suffer them even longer under the "new" administration of "Hope" and "Change", the "transparent" administration that is bringing virtually everyone back from past Billy-bob administrations as well as adding ex-Freddie-Mac/ Fannie-Mae snake-oil scam artists into the fray.
at 09:54 on December 11th, 2008
It is as I thought. More adolescent ravings and childish insults.
How convenient there is a "(not verified)" status so cowards can vomit their drivel.

The whole rumour about Obama's birth certificate started at "The Israel Insider" where they did about 6 articles in a series about it. The person who supposedly started the rumour and claimed to have a copy of his birth certificate mysteriously vanished AFTER the series was completed.
Israel didn't want Obama to become president.
And all because of mis-information from their site, it has spread all around the world.
That is why I get so upset about posting mis-information on the 'net.
I saw the articles and the "birth certificate" they posted at The Israel Insider. Anyone who continues to believe a word they say, should also be reading "The National Enquirer."
at 11:59 on December 11th, 2008
funny, cause it was "The National Enquirer" that broke the infidelity story on the sleaze-bag John Edwards. -all this Hussian had to do was produce his physical birth certificate, whats so hard about that? If anyone is to blame for this continued controversy, it's Alfred E Barak Hussian Obama, not the Israelis.

John Edwards just did what he's biologically programmed to do. Your favored leaders might supress their instincts towards sexuality , but thats sure seems to lead to a megalomaniacal tendancy to try to rule the world just short of destroying it! If Bush could have raped this planet and taken off to another one he would. These are little boys...Our liberals are MEN who in the end choose to be accountable for their actions and the reprocutions of those actions on the world...And getting laid really does not count. Your worst assumption is that we're all using your esoteric moral compass, but unlike you some of us have evolved!

Rudy Giuliani, Larry Craig, Mark Foley, Ted Haggard, Jim Bakker, Marvin Gorman, Jimmy Swaggert . . . . Hey, not ALL of them do. :)

: ) -- I personally could care less. Notice sex is all this guy has to paint liberals as bad guys. Notice also none of those guys rose to world leadership to rock the foundation of everything we trust. You either rise to the top, are a stuffy old conservative, you get your rocks off by trechery (iran contra, watergate, savings and loan scandals...and more... right on up to today)....Or you rise to the top and you're a human being with human impulses who still believes in a pre-apocalyptic world.

Not to defend these wingnuts, but these idiots have to write about something and their readers love conspiracies. Wingnut’s love talking about “connections” and allowing their readers to “draw the right conclusion” from whatever bile it is they’ve managed to cough up during the night.

You're a confused person who tries to spread it around, because you dont give a crap about other people. Thanks to you and your kind for showing your true colors....Hence our next president. (we're sick of sociopaths)

We've already seen how the media is covering up for Barack Obama to the extent of removing any information on the web that would show he met with Rod Blagojevich recently as chronicled by NewsBusters editor Tom Blumer. And now we have evidence that Jesse Jackson, Jr. "misspoke" when he claimed yesterday that the meeting he had with Monday Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich was the first time the two had met in four years. It turns out that there is a video of a sobbing Jesse Jackson, Jr. embracing Blagojevich just last August at a breakfast of the Illinois delegation to the Democrat Nation Convention in Denver. Here is how the incredibly surreal hugfest was covered by the Chicago Tribune:
at 04:00 on December 12th, 2008
LOLOLOL
I don't know what Jackson's definition of "met" is but hugging someone sure does sound like he met Blagojevich. The Chicago Sun-Times also reported on the tear-filled hugfest:
According to the New Republic (remember, the NewsBusters Eye of Sauron is always upon you) the hugfest was initiated by Jackson's irritation that delegates at the breakfast were already getting up to snack on bagels and eggs:
It sure sounds like Jesse Jackson, Jr. was having himself a Rodney Dangerfield "I don't get no respect" moment which caused him to grandstand with his impromptu hugfest. So will the media cover up for Jackson just as they are currently doing for Obama? Your humble correspondent suspects not. Most likely they will toss Jesse Jackson, Jr. under the bus but continue to maintain that Obama never "inhaled" all that Chicago corruption surrounding him.
And whether or not Jesse Jackson, Jr. was involved in "pay for play" with Blagojevich over that vacant senate seat, his bizarre sobbing hugfest routine on that video alone should be enough to permanently disqualify him from ever holding higher office in the future.
