  1. And I am expected to get all exorcised about this ? And why should I care if held dual citizenship because of his father’s status ?

    I am patient. I will wait for a logical explanation. But, No !, I will not hold my breath.

  2. I began reading the comments, but really couldn’t read many of them because as the saying goes “The stupid, it burns.”

  3. these people cant help it. they are intimidated by an intelligent black man and will throw everything but the kitchen sink in order to defame him. jesus said to pray for our enemies. now i know why. these people need prayer. badly.

  4. All the yammering about the birth certificate just proves how very desperate those wingnuts are. For pete’s sake, they are oblivious to the real issues; the minutiae is all they’ve got to go on. ::eyeroll::

  5. There are people who insist that his birth certificate was faked. Why? Well, checking it against other birth certificates showed some discrepancies.

    Because, you know, birth certificates are printed on paper that is *never* changed, in even the slightest detail, between print runs and different municipalities don’t have different makes and models of printers, and, well… they’re really convinced they have evidence that it’s fake.

    An interesting side note is that a birth announcement was found in a local newspaper within a week of his birth. Presumably, he was born in Kenya, and they knew he might try to run for President some day, and phoned in a birth announcement to a Hawaii newspaper to provide cover for him. Because, you know, they knew that a young black man with a foreign name would be able to try to run for President sometime in the next 40-70 years.

  6. All the yammering about the birth certificate just proves how very desperate those wingnuts are.

    I wonder if the wingnuts realize how many of the neocon bloodthirsty dirtbags infesting the Bush Assministration hold dual Israeli citizenship while making foreign policy for the US government.

    I have yet to read a definitive legal explanation that Panamanian strongman John McCain is a natural-born American citizen as required to run for President. There was a ‘sense of the senate’ resolution recently, but the senate can’t retroactively make someone natural-born.

  7. Tech98,

    “I wonder if the wingnuts realize how many of the neocon bloodthirsty dirtbags infesting the Bush Assministration hold dual Israeli citizenship while making foreign policy for the US government.”

    Right-wing wingnutism does not have to be met with wingnutism on the left. Your statement above was pure anti-semitism and I hope that Maha removes it.

  8. Legitimate authority is gigantic with right wingers. They need to feel that Daddy is a Real American Man. Of course they’re trying to tear down anybody on the left, but the need for what they perceive as a legitimate authority figure is what’s behind it.

  9. I have been thinking the reason they keep making up this stuff is because Obama has the same wife he has always had, unlike McCain who left an injured wife to run off with a loaded beer heiress. Obama didn’t push for degregulation so the banks would end up in this big mess, but McCain did. I am sure there are many other contrasts between them. I think it is all a matter of trying to keep the general public looking at silly things instead of McCain.

  10. Your statement above was pure anti-semitism

    And your statement is pure whining bull. Don’t you dare call me an anti-semite.

    Which part of my statement are you disputing — that neocons are dirtbags for leading this country into war with Iraq? Or that many of them hold citizenship of another country whilst wielding major influence over the US government?

    High officials in the US government having citizenship and allegiance to another country while controlling US foreign policy, regardless of what country it is, is a blatant conflict of interest. That goes for the Bush Administration, Obama Administration or any other. If Obama was still a Kenyan citizen I would expect him to renounce such before taking office.

    Do you disagree with this principle, or do you just want to lazily fling nasty accusations?

  11. OK, fellas, settle down. There’s a real problem with an Israeli lobby that has way too much influence over U.S. foreign policy, and I don’t think it’s anti-semitic to say that.

    Obama is not a Kenyan citizen, nor am I interested in McCain’s birth circumstance. So let’s just drop that.
