She didn't make it in 92, 95, 00, or 05. Why would she remember other things that never happened?

You guys manage to do a lot of thinking without ever managing to think very hard.

But as to how it works in the real universe, people make trivial mistakes all the time most of which are never brought to their attention. But when they are, people say, "Oops. Sorry."

You really have to stop making up stupid ****. She remembered writing the bio, and she knows now that that detail was wrong. To connect the dots you actually need to have dots and those are them.

You don't get to make up fake ones.

"Oops, I goofed in 91. And in the revisions of 98, 03, 05, and 07. Sorry."

How can somebody update his bio, even after he became a national figure, and not correct the birth-error?
I really don't have enough faith to live in your world.

Without birthers, there would be no birther movement. Everything cannot be blamed on the Democrats or the left. Birthers are part of the right and if I were a Conservative, I certainly wouldn't want them representing me. Silence gives consent.
While we conservatives may not be all that gung ho seeking proof that Obama was born in Kenya, I would venture to say that few conservatives want the search for truth to stop. If we are silent, we are silently cheering the others on. So you anti-birthers, keep the threads going. We like to see how scared you all are.

Always have an excuse for these so-called mistakes eh? 16 years later?! LMAO! Who is paying you to come running to these threads and provide excuses and cover? What makes you the know it all of everything Barack Obama? I've been reading your threads concerning personal information about the man that comes out and you are right there to say how it is either false or was a mistake. It's almost as if you've known the man since birth and lived with him his entire life. Let's be honest, you're being spoon fed what to say in these threads, it's literally impossible for you to know all what is the truth about Barack Obama. LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE!

Wrong.

I provided direct links to the original Birther posts on right wing forums and blogs from March of 2008. Here they are again:

FR CONTEST: "Pin the Middle Name on the Obama"

RUTHLESS ROUNDUP: FREEDOMS ENEMIES - THE OBAMA STORY

This is a lie. Nobody was even aware of the 1991 bio until Breitbart.com found it a couple months ago.

This is a lie. Neither Hillary, nor her husband, nor anybody from her campaign has ever once even hinted that Obama was not eligible for the presidency or that he was born in Kenya.

That is almost 5 months later than the right-wing conservative Birther posts I linked to. Do the math.

Ignoring that Kenyan newspapers have nothing to do with US Democrats, a few days later that same Kenyan newspaper retracted its mistake.

Yes. It is . And I provided a direct link proving that I am right. Here it is again:

FR CONTEST: "Pin the Middle Name on the Obama"

Except it's not. It's a well known and long lived right-wing conservative blogger. And it was three days later from the original Birther post on FreeRepublic.
