I still can't believe more liberals are not furious about this.

Obama has consolidated so much power in the executive branch that the entire balance of power between the various branches of government has been completely destroyed by this president.

They love it for now, but will be back to hating it when their side is not in power.

actually IF obama was born outside of the US his mother was a couple months shy of the minimum age requirement to automatically confer US citizenship according to the laws in 1961.

Sort of like loving the senate majority blocking the minority from filibusters, and hating it once the repubs take back control of the senate?

Hmmm, I was not aware of that. So you are saying an American citizen must be 21 years old or so, to confer citicenship on their child, if it's born outside CONUS???

I don't understand this obsession with find the next scandal over and over that doesn't seem to go anywhere. Then the next week a new scandal that eventual doesn't go anywhere, but hell if wingnuts will believe it just like the one before it...and at all points it's just about to take Obama down. So many years of this **** week after week I wonder if wingnuts understand why this has become a chicken-little like comedy to people who have a memory of what happened with the last dozen (and more) "breaking scandals."

Oh, wait for it...3...2...1...I am being paid to say this by Obama's crack team of internet commentator group Still waiting to see some evidence of those claims besides I have a nerve to disagree with wingnuts opinion on the new weekly scandal and 15 minutes of rage.
Can you spell OBAMA WORSHIPER? You would defend him if he murdered his sister.

I can't believe what is happening and can't believe anyone would really continue to defend Obama or support him, OK, I know I am partial, I don't deny it, but there seems to be no end to what we are learning about this man!! Even if some of this is over reacting, only partly true, whatever, we all have to realize, 1/2 of what has happened, if true is enough for those who support him to hang their heads in shame...I will give him credit for one thing: he did order the killing of Bin L.

no, 19. for births between 1952 and 1986:

"In the case of a child born to one U.S. citizen parent and one alien parent, the U.S. citizen parent now had only to be physically present in the United States or its outlying possessions prior to the child's birth for 10 years, at least 5 of which were after the age of 14."

U.S. CITIZENSHIP ACQUIRED BY BIRTH ABROAD
