All the money spent on his campaign WILL help those people because we have a more transparent White House, and the policies of Obama WILL favor Middle Class and Lower Class people who have not been treated well for many years--not by our tax codes--not by our laws--not by our pay scales in our corporations. That money is an investment in change. The money for the ads in the Chicago Tribune will not cause any change and is simply a waste.

Hey, I'm happy to see the newspapers getting full page ads. An ad selling silly conspiracy theories is no more offensive than an ad selling toilet paper, IMO. If the people buying the ad think it's worth it, it's OK by me. Newspapers need the money. LOL, maybe they'll make a point to use the money to pay the salary for one more liberal reporter...

Racist crap? What's racist about it?

Personally, I think it's stupid. From everything I've read, this is a long-since dead issue. Obama was born in Hawaii.

But racist? Come on!

And that would make sense, except it would have been his mother who would have had to have gotten and used the illegal one, because he had it as a child.

And that brings us back to the very simple fact that the only real way that Obama's COLB could be wrong - not fake, but erroneous - is if Dunham had gotten somebody at the hospital or the Bureau of Vital Statitstics to lie for her, since it is from the hospital that the Bureau got its information and from the Bureau that the newspapers got theirs.

And she'd have had to a) manage to do that in a very narrow time frame, between his birth and the Friday on which records were picked up from the hospital for the Bureau.

Guess what!

No motive.

The only advantage to her doing that would be so her son would be eligible to become President. And in 1961, what 18 year old girl is going to think her bi-racial son might head that way?

I love this part:

Quote:
As a formal “Notice of a Constitutional Violation,” the Petition naturally includes the People’s inherent Right to an official Response. As a time-sensitive, election related Petition involving the Office of the President, failure to Respond as requested would constitute an egregious breach of the public trust and confirm the certainty of a Constitutional crisis.
It reminds me of those crazy tax-evaders who make up rights and wrap their arguments in pseudo-legalese. It's so obvious that they're incompetent. And the OP thinks this is a "major development" or something? It's just a bunch of wingnuts engaging in mutual delusion!

Gee. Today is December 1, and I don't see anything in the media about this full-page ad.

You do realize people would take you seriously on the issues Obama actually screwed up on if these lame talking points weren't constantly brought up, right?
