Arizona GOP to Obama: Show Us Your Circumcision Certificate

[sasha031]

thinking of running for president, but can't find a copy of your long-form birth certificate? No problem, say Arizona GOPers. Just be prepared to provide a description of your penis.

The state's birther bill, which had until recently been sidelined, cruised through the state Senate on a 20-to-9 party line vote Wednesday and was passed by the state House late Thursday. It's now awaiting the signature of Arizona's Republican Governor Jan Brewer. The bill, resurrected late last month with some minor changes, requires presidential candidates to provide a valid long-form birth certificate before they can appear on the ballot in Arizona. Because not all states even produce such records anymore, the bill allows prospective candidates to provide any two of the following documents in lieu of a long-form birth certificate: an "early census record," a signed post-partum medical record, a hospital birth record (also known as a certificate of live birth), or a baptismal or circumcision certificate.

That's right: Arizona Republicans want you to provide proof that you've been circumcised; it makes the "boxers and briefs" question look downright prudish. But a warning for overzealous candidates: As the Phoenix New Times helpfully notes, "Pulling out your penis in front of election officials, however, will not prove citizenship—and, in the worst case scenario, could get labeled a sex offender." Rules to live by.

The Republicans have always treated President Obama the way Rock Ridge tried to treat Bart:

Remember how they were licking their lips at the prospect of inspecting Clinton's member?

8. They will feel really big when they get a look at Obama's

cause as we all know black guys are bigger. :rofl::popcorn:

7. Circumcision Certificates can be forged.

It is a bit harder to fake a Circumcision. When are they going to ask to see the real thing for proof.

9. I think a legally CERTIFIED copy of a birth record provided by the state

trumps a "valid long-form birth certificate" (whatever the hell THAT is) any day of the week. The point is that a certified copy is least likely to be forged. All the other documents can easily be forged.
