Bachmann: Obama certificate ‘should settle’ birther issue
Posted on 04.20.11
By David Edwards

Tea party favorite Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) has officially moved to the left of Donald Trump.

The Minnesota Republican told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos Wednesday that the certificate of live birth released by then-candidate Barack Obama in 2008 should satisfy “birthers” who don’t believe he is a natural born U.S. citizen.

“I have the president’s certificate right here,” Stephanopoulos told her. “It’s certified, it’s got a certification number. It’s got the registrar of the state signed. It’s got a seal on it. And it says ‘this copy serves as prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court proceeding.’”

“Well then that should settle it,” she said.

5. I watched her on some show last night and she didn't appear to
be backing away from it at all. What it looked like she was doing, was trying to eat her cake and have it too.

She said that the issue wasn't worth pursuing when we have so many other issues to address, but she kept putting the burden on Obama, as in, "he needs to just show his birth certificate so that the country can move on."

Since he has already provided his birth certificate, I took those statements to mean that he should provide something else. So on the one hand she was trying to back away by saying the issue isn't big enough to bother with, but at the same time she implied that the document that we all know about isn't good enough.

6. Why do birthers hate the Constitution
IV: Such Acts, records and judicial proceedings or copies thereof, so authenticated, shall have the same full faith and credit in every court within the United States and its Territories and Possessions as they have by law or usage in the courts of such State, Territory or Possession from which they are taken.

7. She's still crazy. Notice her response was, something about taking the President at his word,
:wtf: She never really agreed with the validity of the certificate, just the " that should settle it, blah blah.

And what's up with the hair on these crazies? She's sporting a bump-it like Palin now and Trump's got the Star Trek tribble. Are they all aliens?
