Dear GOP, regarding Birthers

[Olo401]

Are all the Hawaiians born around the same time as Obama, who also "lost their original birth certificates" also not US Citizens?

I think we should just oust Obama out of the country for being an illegal immigrant. That and/or attack the dominant institutions, the Republican and Democrat parties for the lack of diligence in allowing a non-US Citizen to become president. How could they possibly let this happen? For all Obama knew, he was a US Citizen! We should either put up with the mistakes we've made, or oust those same congressmen trying to put this act through (after putting that act in, we definitely need that, of course. Oh, also, tack on some pork please) for not bringing this to our attention earlier!

Think about it, 2-years before the elections, the candidates start campaigning. That means not only for the 40-some years that he was alive was this not brought to our attention, but also in the past 3 years prior to his rise to presidency. That is ridiculous! How could no one person of either party made note of this most important tenet of presidency!? Ban them. Ban them all. What are we even paying them for!? Our money ends up lining Goldman Sachs' pockets anyway, who in turn will take government jobs...who then need to be fired for not telling us beforehand that our president is a lie.

Seriously. You need to seek help, preferrably from a licensed therapist.

Wowwwwww... there was more crazy in that room than even I was prepared to admit.

Also, what the fuck @ Delaware? When did you go insane?

CNN Boss Tells Lou Dobbs: Birther Story is 'Dead' - Cnn - Gawker

loool

Personally, yes I believe he was born in Hawaii in the circumstances he gave. However, there is some evidence that the tinfoil hats bring up that do have substance, no matter how minuscule they are. Like I said, time will reveal the truth as I feel the whole issue will gain momentum and possibly more spotlight on it as the term continues. Hell, maybe Obama will decide to nip it in the bud and execute all possibility of doubt.

Also, it's pretty "lol" how you and many others designate the GOP as some kind of perpetrator in this whole Obama conspiracy thing. Wasn't there a Democrat Attorney who first brought this shit up before he was elected? I'll let you be content with the whole scapegoating of the GOP for all of the problems in the US since you really seem "ang-wee" at them.

Holy shit owned lol

Sad how we seek news in entertainment and entertainment in news these days. Jon's been roasting quite a few people lately, always good stuff.



But in the words of another comedian, seriously.... "This is not news."

At this point I think you could detonate a nuclear bomb in a major metropolis and as long as a scandal supposedly occurred with some polarizing figurehead at the same time the bomb would get no media coverage.

I don't think this was posted, but apparently, the most trusted newsman in America is in fact John Stewart:

I'm most worried about the fact that you have to rely on a comedian to tell the truth now.

[Zilong]

He has the advantage of not having to make up shit on 24/7 basis, so he can actually use real news on his program.

SPLC forcing CNN to tell Dobbs to stop airing Birth programs is making the whole spectacle even more intriguing. Political correctness at best.

lol SPLC.

edit: Go ahead and pump race into this Mr. Cohen.

Respectable news organizations should not employ reporters willing to peddle racist conspiracy theories and false propaganda. It's time for CNN to remove Mr. Dobbs from the airwaves.

Not political correctness...more like political "get-off-the-fucking-issue-it's-not-important-or-legit. From someone who does not agree with pretty much everything Obama has done so far...get a serious point to criticize him about. Birth certificate is a non-issue. Let it go.

I thought you were one of the more sensible conservatives, but your underhandedness is really discrediting for you.

I'm not picking any sides here, it just angers me that media is being controlled here right in front of our eyes for a controversial issue that many are concerned with. I'm not going to dismiss their claims as a waste of time until they are cleared out (which they can be very easily).

[Kuya]

I am sorry, you are simply clinging to this for ideological reasons. This is has been handled already, and anyone who insists on it is simply looking for a reason to deny Obama. The media should ignore issues that distract from what's important (health care reform), and this is clearly a tactic being fanned by those who oppose Obama. In fact, notice how the single payer option got little to no attention in TV News, yet a conspiracy theory with little merit gets airtime. This is a fundamental fault of TV news, and it's being taken advantage of.

Simple enough, people who insist on this are looking for reasons to bust Obama's chops, they're not interested in truth.

People should pay particular attention how all of a sudden a slew of unimportant issues are exploding everywhere. Take this birther nonsense and the Gates issue. Be wary of distractions.

How could they be cleared out?

Please, please, please reply "well if he'd just show his birth certificate!"

Please.

So they found the birther from the OP video and she's even crazier than we already thought!
