11. Every conspiracy nut expands the conspiracy to include info that debunks their theory
Never met a conspiracy nut to ever go "Oh. I guess I was wrong. Nevermind." It's not how their minds work.

45. yes, the conspiracy I see here though is-
Edited on Wed Apr-27-11 09:21 AM by stuntcat
the 'conspiracy' I can totally see here is Obama waiting to release this until the whole world has seen the racist right-wingers completely uncover their fleshy-pink-butt-cheeks-of-Hate. Obama's politically smart that way, and it was an easy way to play them!

52. I've already seen folks at the RoadRunner news feed claiming to be....
document forgery experts insist this cannot be a legitimate document because it does not have a raised seal. Thereby proving it is wiser to keep one's mouth shut and be thought a fool than open it and remove all doubt.

You are absolutely correct. Nothing will satisfy the confirmed birthers. They are willfully stupid and steeped with spite.

8. they won't shut up. just checked that hotbed of birtherism, freepwadville
and predictably, they're already claiming it's a forgery. this isn't about his birth certificate, it's about racism, and those who will accept the bc will simply move on to "he isn't a natural born citizen".

Freepers already indulging in alternate theories. The President is not "illegitimately" President because of where he was born or where his father was born. Birthers have another reason he is not a "legit" President.

When they indulge in calling him a "one termer" - if you really want to get under their skin? Say, "so what? He's always going to be the 44th President. You can't erase that from history. There's always going to be a black man on that list of people who've served as President."

Cause you know they want that cancelled somehow.

racist morons.
Now they'll want his college transcripts - remember they never wanted Bush's own even though he was a 'pure bred' dunce.

16. His Mom was only 18 at his birth.. Thinking back to 1961, imagine
it could not have been easy for her or her family. It's a testament to her family that she continued in school, got her degrees and raised such fine kids..
I am so glad he was born in Honolulu, and not Wichita Kansas.. Hawaii has been multicultural for a very long time..

It's also so sad that she died so young, when she had him sp young.. she should still be alive, enjoying what her son became..

Edited on Wed Apr-27-11 08:35 AM by Dread Pirate Roberts
But the black guy with the funny name...probably a furener and a mooslim seecrit agent to boot. As much as I want the birthers to shut up, this is a double standard. Judging from the damage he did to the country, there was more evidence that George W. was a foreign plant. Plus, as long as they continue to beat this drum, the more they look like buffoons. We didn't need to see the certificate to know these people were idiots (see Donald Trump).

23. IT WAS WRITTEN BY AYERS! IT WAS WRITTEN BY AYERS!
that's why the second certificate was so much inferior to the first. I mean, the first one is Hemingway, but the one Obama had been showing us was...high school stuff!

24. I will not even look at it; I don't Need to.
They all are idiots. To even play into the MSM Conspiracy is BS.

This is 100% the fault of MSM. Period. They are the ones who publicized this. They are the ones who show up for a "crowd of 12" at tp rallies, inflate the attendance and Ignore the 100-Thousand that show up at union/worker support rallies.

They are the ones who promoted the 2009/10 Angry Town Halls attacking Dems, with Hired "Protesters" and Ignore the republicans town halls where real, reasonable people are "holding their feet to the fire".

I am shutting down MSNBC, etc feeds. Fk 'em. I don't Need to Buy more Bull-Shit, I live next to a farmer and can get it for free And it feeds my garden instead of wasting my time listening to the "poisoned message".

26. He hooked a whole bunch of them to "being stupid"!!!
Edited on Wed Apr-27-11 08:38 AM by cascadiance
Perhaps now we can focus on more relevant issues, and Obama can actually focus on those and do more progressive speechs AND actions to back them up as part of his campaign this coming year, to hopefully culminate in him getting reelected where he doesn't feel pressure to being "bipartisan" then, or at least we can demand that he doesn't need to be bipartisan any more to serve those who voted him in to office.

Kind of funky that I was born in Indonesia and later lived in Honolulu as a kid after Obama was born, and he was born in Honolulu and later lived in Indonesia as a kid well after I was born there...

51. And it was also true of George Bush.
But Trump's (false) claim re: Obama carries the stench of racism: Obama can't have been smart enough to get into Harvard on his own merits (he's black, after all), so he must have been one of those affirmative action admittees who took the rightful place of a smarter, more deserving white kid.

In contrast, Bush, a "legacy" admittee who was genuinely as dumb as a box of hammers, just took the rightful place of a smarter, more deserving but unconnected and poorer kid.

35. How long since it's been released? I've already seen on-line comments...
and gotten an email from a teanutter in the last few minutes that it's a forgery. Sheesh! Nothing short of the Tardis and a visit to the delivery room would convince some of them and perhaps not even that.
