Like they say, any press is good press. Hopefully this will eventually bring on the "Natural Born Citizen" debate.

Obama's birth certificate - MoveOn.com takes on Lou Dobbs Print E-mail
Written by Staff
MoveOn is taking on Lou Dobbs and CNN:

Why is CNN promoting right-wing paranoid conspiracy theories about President Obama's birth certificate?

The fringe ideas of the so-called "birthers" have been thoroughly debunked.1 But CNN host Lou Dobbs perpetuates these myths by constantly talking about them on his shows and asserting that Obama still needs to "produce a birth certificate."

This is not responsible journalism. Our friends at Media Matters have launched a campaign calling on CNN to address its Lou Dobbs problem— but a lot of us are going to have to speak out in order to get CNN's attention. Clicking here will add your name to their petition:

OT has said that the birthers would not like the decision that SCOTUS made, if they were to rule on the Natural Born Citizen issue.

I think he is correct, there would be many that would be unhappy if they overruled the previous decisions and interpretation of the Constitution.

There is general agreement on the core of settled meaning. Anyone born on American soil whose parents are citizens of the United States of American is a "natural born citizen."

Bill O'Rielly with his audience of over 5 million just had a piece on Lou Dobbs. O'Rielly believes Obama was born in the US but Bernie Goldberg was saying that Lou Dobbs even though he believe that Obama is a US citizen, has the right to requesting the birth certificate. And Bernie couldn't understand why Obama just doesn't show the certificate and get it over with. He also said he wanted to know what is in the president's college records that he refuses to release them. If this guy is so transparent why not show the records. :?
When O'Rielly has it on his show and his guest is asking why Obama doesn't just show the records, you have to wonder if this will not have an effect. O'Rielly said he knew why Obama wouldn't show it, it was because Obama and his people are "arrogant" and don't think they have to answer to the voters that they are to be serving. :wink:

I thought Bernie Goldberg may have had a point, to paraphrase. They want to make the Republicans look like loons. They do not prove it so they can call people like Sandhusker crazy republicans.

This may be the point, logical people say just show your BC, but Obama is able to make these logical people look like Conspiracy people and in essence discrediting them. Also makes himself look like a victim of crazies. When all along it is just logical people that believe he should just show it instead of all the money being spent on hiding it!

logical people have figured out that whatever it is that he does not want revealed can be verified by a few documents, which are also being hidden.

Even to his kindergarten records being "lost", of course his are the only ones that have been lost.

Look Obama, if you were adopted by your grandparents or Soetoro, why not just spill the beans.

but legally going by a couple of different names would also make Obama fraudulent.

the cover-up is probably going to end up being worse than the crime.

A continuation of the liberal "Shut up" campaign.

What liberal or progressive ever said to "shut up" about this issue?

By all means, I hope the birthers keep making tinfoil headgear and beating the drum on this topic.

And they should also do the following:

1. Send money to Sarah Palin, Jim DeMint, and Michelle Bachmann.
2. Start hoarding canned food.
3. Scan Revelations for passages about a dark anti-christ and end times.
4. Bury boxes of ammunition in the yard.
5. Take all of their money out of banks.

I think the only people that would really like to see the birthers shut up are the leaders of the Republican Party, because they are afraid this lunacy will stick to them - but they are too scared to confront the Glenn Becks of the world because in a closely divided electorate, they need all the loon votes they can get.

The liberals "shut up" campaign is over all things anti-obama, not just the fact that the man is going to great expense and trouble to keep his birth certificate hidden.

Why do you think he is doing that, Badaxe? Seems kind of a silly thing to do if the cert. is "clean", don't you think?
