from an interview with alan colmes:

http://radio.foxnews.com/2014/05/21/...ampaign=buffer

i love this part:

"I don’t think it’s racially motivated. I do think people want to know because, be objective, you have somebody, his name is Barack Hussein Obama."

so, it's not racial but....... we should be suspicious of people whose names aren't "american" enough.

way to go doc.

Cool, maybe Obama can flirt with honesty or competence one of these days.

He just helped the Democrats out. Alan Colmes just led him down the old racist republican trail. He let him expose himself. Yes i know Carson is black also.

colmes asked the question, carson answered.

exactly how does that change the content of carson's answer?

if i was trying to "avoid mentioning that it was leftist drone Alan Colmes who brought up the subject" i probably would have avoided posting that it was from an alan colmes interview ( my first sentence ) and link to a transcript of the entire exchange.

Wow, that's even more stupid. It's not that he was born in another country, which wasn't true, it is that his name is not common in the US.

I knew someone named sunshine...does that mean she was not a human being and a ray of light?

I love how people who are in love with him as a future presidential candidate are trying to backpedal what he actually said. Just like what was done with Cain, Santorum, and Bachmann when they were presidential hopefuls. That they are hopefuls right up to the time where they are shown to be a pathetic laughingstock to normal people.

It seems the more some people love and champion them in the public sphere...the more people realize what cranks they are. If these people just didn't put them on these shows where their idiocy was exposed they might actually make it farther along to the process of getting into office. Which is funny with Carson since he has zero experience in any office...compared to the "under-qualified" Obama with a number of years of experience.

I see the shucking, jiving, dodging, and twisting has commenced, right on schedule.

If we do a search in this forum, we'll probably find that little wreckingball has brought up the subject of the controversy over Obama's place of birth, more frequently than all Republicans and conservatives combined.

But no, he only does it to complain that other people are far too concerned with it.....

No doubt little wreckingball's handlers are pleased with him, though... which is the only thing that really counts.

He's creeping mighty close to Uncle Tom territory.

Why doesn't he look at his own name? A man of African descent named Ben Carson.

He sure as heck doesn't look European to me. At least Obama's name reflects his heritage.

how is linking to a direct transcript of the exchange ( from fox news no less ) "shucking, jiving, dodging, and twisting"?

more than likely i'd fall into second place behind "steve mcgarrett/britt reid/old army soldier/jesus christ superstar/et al". but, if you have time to research the numbers, i'd love to know the totals.

Actually, this thread is even more indicative of just how desperate the leftists are getting.

Now they are trying to pretend that, since Carson mentioned the President's name, leftists now claim the name is the reason people believe the President was born somewhere else!

Can these people get any sillier?
