This whole “birther” thing regarding whether President Obama is a natural born citizen or not… there’s one way to end it quickly: show the birth certificate.
I’ve never been a proponent of the “if you’ve got nothing to hide…” line of reasoning, but I do understand where it comes from. Furthermore, there’s no question that it does arouse suspicion because if things were the way you say they were and could easily prove it, why wouldn’t you? It would put an end to the whole thing. Done. ’nuff said.
So it is curious why President Obama doesn’t just put a simple end to this.
But the birthers have to realize one important thing. If you do get your way, then that means we’ll be stuck with President Biden.
I don’t know if that’s an improvement. 😉

you’ve probably never been a “propoent” of correct spelling either, I’d guess
Wow. What a rebuttal.
Edited: Sorry. I shouldn’t have said that. I’m in a poor mood this morning for various unrelated reasons. 😦
Thank you for the typo correction.
As much as I want to see this lack of common sense end, I honestly don’t think showing a birth certificate would ease the “birthers” minds. They already picked apart the certification of live birth. The Department of Vital Records in Hawaii already confirmed twice that Obama is a naturalized citizen. Before the Internet, that would have been the end of the discussion. Now it is “pics or didn’t happen”.
On a side note, I had a chat with DS today. He filled us in on the new situation. Sorry man.
Yeah, I do think that some people just flat out won’t be satisfied here… no matter what.
So it is curious why President Obama doesn’t just put a simple end to this.
So as long as the birther movement can keep going, Obama can continue to tar the Right as crazy conspiracy theorists. It is to his advantage to let the birthers get attention.
Good point.
This is on point: a lefty blogger has admitted to creating the forged Kenyan birth certificate.
Heh. 🙂
Just goes to show… if you read it on the Internet, it must be true!
In the end, I really don’t care a whole lot about this “birther” issue. I even think it’s stupid that it’s carried on for so long. I guess tinfoil hats need to be rotated to be kept fresh or something. 😉
But I guess some people need a hobby… evidently on both sides of the matter.

Indeed. Fanning the flames to people who are already close to a boiling point is just plain stupid no matter what the political motivation.
Unfortunately the third comment on that link already proved my point about if/when a real birth certificate emerges:
Wow. Just wow. Obots are so stupid and/or desperate that they’re actually helping the Birthers prove just how easy it is for anyone to forge a birth certificate – including Obama of course.
And the circle of bullshit is complete. 😉
(not you, Erik, referring to the 3rd comment that you listed).
