Don't those fucking idiots realize how much they actually hurt the Republicans?

So people would rather believe the sleeve cover of an unpublished book than his actual birth certificate. Well, then there is no end to this, is there?

I will say this, I think publicists put whatever spin on things they think will sell copy. And I think the way he was described made him sound much more "exotic", to use a word I despise, but it seems appropriate here.

I find it a bit odd, but not unimaginable, and certainly not dispositive of anything.

But I would have to agree that none of this helps the Republicans. The circus side show stuff is getting old, no? How much tattooed man and bearded lady can we take...

"Shouldn't hurt the republicans , none of them are running with this"





You`re kidding right?....lol


This will most definitely impact swing voters and turn them off to Mitt,no matter how much Mitt tries to distance himself.

He can`t can`t shake the PACs running ads about the Rev Wright or the GOPeewees` bigotted use of the name "Hussein"

It`s "08" all over again.




"Breitbart.com published a lengthy disclaimer with the brochure, saying it does not believe Obama was born outside of the United States:

Andrew Breitbart was never a "Birther," and Breitbart News is a site that has never advocated the narrative of "Birtherism." In fact, Andrew believed, as we do, that President Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on August 4, 1961.

Yet Andrew also believed that the complicit mainstream media had refused to examine President Obama's ideological past, or the carefully crafted persona he and his advisers had constructed for him.

It is for that reason that we launched "The Vetting," an ongoing series in which we explore the ideological background of President Obama (and other presidential candidates)--not to re-litigate 2008, but because ideas and actions have consequences.

It is also in that spirit that we discovered, and now present, the booklet described below--one that includes a marketing pitch for a forthcoming book by a then-young, otherwise unknown former president of the Harvard Law Review.

It is evidence--not of the President's foreign origin, but that Barack Obama's public persona has perhaps been presented differently at different times."


So on one hand the yellow journalists admit that they believe the president is American while on the other,claim that some un-named " complicit mainstream media" is actively trying covering up the president`s ideological background.

So then.......what is it about President Obama that the "complicit mainstream media" hasn`t explored?

"because ideas and actions have consequences"

What a cowardly way to justify their dirty tricks.

The AP reporter stated the following:

Kenyan-born US Senate hopeful, Barrack Obama, appeared set to take over the Illinois Senate seat after his main rival, Jack Ryan, dropped out of the race on Friday night amid a furor over lurid sex club allegations.

This report explains the context of the oft cited debate, between Obama and Keyes in the following Fall, in which Keyes faulted Obama for not being a “natural born citizen”, and in which Obama, by his quick retort, “So what? I am running for Illinois Senator, not the presidency”, self-admitted that he was not eligible for the office. Seeing that an AP reporter is too professional to submit a story which was not based on confirmed sources (ostensibly the Obama campaign in this case), the inference seems inescapable: Obama himself was putting out in 2004, that he was born in Kenya.
