Obama went on a fishing trip and came back with a boat loaded with Suckers. It was easy pickings for him cause suckers like the slick tongue he used for bait. Here are just a few of the SUCKERS for OBAMA:
thebutcher76, Busted Flush, FED UP, liberalbender, commonsense, BAFEM, smalltownman,coollittlehot, Athena, 68thunderbird are just a few that have fallen for the silver tongue bait....
Obama did catch a few blowfish....BlizzardAge , 2cents and others
Obama has: A Cabinet full of Suckers (and blowfish) A House full of Suckers (and blowfish ) A Chamber full of Suckers(and blowfish) And his tempoary house is staffed with Suckers (and blowfish) Obama has help catching Suckers: ACCORN, ABC,NBC,CBS, MSNBC,CNN, NY Times, Washington Post and many others bait the hook for their master fisherman.
Obama may need to change his fishing techinque because some of the orginal Suckers are getting away. They fell for the silver tongue bait, but are making independent moves to flee, after realizing what Suckers they have been.
If you are an Obama Sucker or know of an Obama Sucker that would like to be added to the list, please post it on this thread

Congress’s 237 millionaires By Erica Lovely Capitol News Company, LLC Talk about bad timing. As Washington reels from the news of 10.2 percent unemployment, the Center for Responsive Politics is out with a new report describing the wealth of members of Congress. Among the highlights: Two-hundred-and-thirty-seven members of Congress are millionaires. That’s 44 percent of the body – compared to about 1 percent of Americans overall. CRP says California Republican Rep. Darrell Issa is the richest lawmaker on Capitol Hill, with a net worth estimated at about $251 million. Next in line: Rep. Jane Harman (D-Calif.), worth about $244.7 million; Sen. Herb Kohl (D-Wis.), worth about $214.5 million; Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), worth about $209.7 million; and Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), worth about $208.8 million. All told, at least seven lawmakers have net worths greater than $100 million, according to the Center’s 2008 figures. ”Many Americans probably have a sense that members of Congress aren’t hurting, even if their government salary alone is in the six figures, much more than most Americans make,” said CRP spokesman Dave Levinthal. “What we see through these figures is that many of them have riches well beyond that salary, supplemented with securities, stock holdings, property and other investments.” The CRP numbers are somewhat rough estimates – lawmakers are required to report their financial information in broad ranges of figures, so it’s impossible to pin down their dollars with precision. The CRP uses the mid-point in the ranges to build its estimates. Senators’ estimated median reportable worth sunk to about $1.79 million from $2.27 million in 2007. The House’s median income was significantly lower and also sank, bottoming out at $622,254 from $724,258 in 2007. But CRP’s analysis suggests that some lawmakers did well for themselves between 2007 and 2008, even as many Americans lost jobs and saw their savings and their home values plummet. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) gained about $9.2 million. Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) gained about $3 million, Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii) had an estimated $2.6 million gain, and Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) gained about $2.8 million. Some lawmakers have profited from investments in companies that have received federal bailouts; dozens of lawmakers are invested in Wells Fargo, Citigroup,Goldman Sachs, and Bank of America.

Grams, you pitiful old bag, wrote "FU, I WANT YOU TO LOOK AT THIS RICH DEMOCRAT LIST OF CONGRESSMEN" Bless your shriveled up little heart, Grams. I did as you asked and found a total of 9 congressmen and senators listed. Am I missing something here, Grams, or is your statement typical of republican intelligence? Out of the 9 named, 5 were democrats and 4 were republicans. Please, Grams, explain how that is a LIST OF RICH DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSMEN? You too, lucifer...how is that "revealing information", as you call it, democratic Rich Suckers? Hurry home from church, Grams. I know you are there praying for my misguided soul.

I voted Democrat, because
I love the fact that I can now marry whatever I want.
I've decided to marry my horse.
I voted Democrat, because
I believe oil companies' profits of 4% on a gallon of gas are
obscene, but the government taxing the same gallon of gas
at 15% isn't.
I voted Democrat, because
I believe the government will do a better job of
spending the money I earn than I would.
I voted Democrat, because
Freedom of speech is fine as long as nobody is offended by it.
I voted Democrat, because
When we pull out of Iraq I trust that the bad guys will stop what
they are doing, because they now think we are good people.
I voted Democrat, because
I'm way too irresponsible to own a gun, and I know that my local
police are all I need to protect me from murderers and thieves.
I voted Democrat, because
I believe that people who can't tell us if it will rain on Friday can
tell us that the polar ice caps will melt away in ten years if
I don't start driving a Prius.
I voted Democrat, because
I'm not concerned about the slaughter of millions of babies so long
as we keep all death row inmates alive.
I voted Democrat, because
I think illegal aliens have a right to free health care,
education, and Social Security benefits.
I voted Democrat, because
I believe that business should not be allowed to make profits for
themselves. They need to break even and give the rest away to
the government for redistribution as the democrats see fit.
I voted Democrat, because
I believe liberal judges need to rewrite The Constitution every few
days to suit some fringe kooks who would never get their agendas
past the voters.
I voted Democrat, because
My head is so firmly planted up my ass that it is unlikely that I'll ever have another point of view.

I find it so interesting that FED UP attacked the statement "RICH DEMOCRAT CONGRESSMEN" made by Grams in order to try to discredit the fact that on the list were RICH DEMOCRATS (no matter how you spin it). Typical liberal attempt to shield the TRUTH when everyone knows that there are RICH CONGRESSMEN AND SENATORS of both parties.Liberals like FED UP have trouble admitting to the truth sometimes. It is obvious that FED UP is a LIBERAL SUCKER FOR OBAMA!!! And HE/SHE can't spin that!!!

Hey, Duke..I DO realize there are rich congressmen of both parties. Apparently you and Grams don't. When Grams sees a list of 5 democrats and 4 republicans and calls it a "list of rich democrats" I just wondered how she came up with that. Maybe you, in your infinite Yakkin' county wisdom, can enlighten me.

You were just trying to divert the attention away. But, that trick is old. Why don't you liberal democrats get a new play book. SUCKERS like you take the bait so easy. KEEP ON SUCKING IN 2010!!!

C-SPAN Challenges Congress to Open Health Care Talks to TV Coverage
FOXNews.com
The head of C-SPAN has implored Congress to open up the last leg of health care reform negotiations to the public, as top Democrats lay plans to hash out the final product among themselves.
printemailshare recommend (79) AP2008
Jan. 31, 2008: Sen. Barack Obama helps Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton to her seat before the start of a Democratic presidential primary debate in Los Angeles. (AP Photo) The head of C-SPAN has implored Congress to open up the last leg of health care reform negotiations to the public, as top Democrats lay plans to hash out the final product among themselves.
C-SPAN CEO Brian Lamb wrote to leaders in the House and Senate Dec. 30 urging them to open "all important negotiations, including any conference committee meetings," to televised coverage on his network.
"The C-SPAN networks will commit the necessary resources to covering all of the sessions LIVE and in their entirety," he wrote.
Congressional leaders, however, reportedly are expected to bypass the traditional conference committee process, in which lawmakers from both parties and chambers meet to reconcile differences between the House and Senate versions of a bill. Instead, The Associated Press reports that top Democrats at the House, Senate and White House will figure out the final product in three-way talks before sending it back to both chambers for a final vote.
This format would seem ideal for closed-door meetings, which congressional Democrats have used many times to figure out sensitive provisions in the health care bill -- though President Obama pledged during the campaign to open up health care talks to C-SPAN's cameras.
"That's what I will do in bringing all parties together, not negotiating behind closed doors, but bringing all parties together, and broadcasting those negotiations on C-SPAN so that the American people can see what the choices are," Obama said at a debate against Hillary Clinton in Los Angeles on Jan. 31, 2008.
Asked about the request to Congress, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said he hadn't seen the letter.
"I know the president is going to begin discussions today on health care to iron out differences between the House and Senate bills," he said.
Lamb urged Congress in his letter to fling open the doors in the final stretch of the negotiations.
"President Obama, Senate and House leaders, many of your rank-and-file members, and the nation's editorial pages have all talked about the value of transparent discussions on reforming the nation's health care system," he wrote. "Now that the process moves to the critical stage of reconciliation between the chambers, we respectfully request that you allow the public full access, through television, to legislation that will affect the lives of every single American."
Lamb said his network would use "the latest technology" to be "as unobtrusive as possible" during the talks.

U.S. to Suspend Gitmo Detainee Transfers to Yemen
FOXNews.com
The U.S. will not transfer any detainees from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to Yemen right now, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said Tuesday.
The U.S. will not transfer any detainees from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to Yemen right now, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said Tuesday.
Ninety detainees in Gitmo are from Yemen, which is combating a resurgent Al Qaeda.
Alleged Christmas Day bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab is also said to have gotten training in Yemen before carrying explosives on a Northwest flight from Amsterdam to Detroit. His attempt to detonate the bomb was foiled when his device malfunctioned and he was tackled by a passenger.
"One of the very first things Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula used as a tool was Gitmo," Gibbs said. "We're not going to make transfers to a country like Yemen that they're not capable of handling (the detainees). While we remain committed to closing the detention facility, the determination has been made that right now any additional transfers to Yemen is not a good idea."
The announcement comes as President Obama misses his original deadline for closing the facility -- a pledge he made on his first week in office.
Gibbs said court trials will begin for several individuals currently in Guantanamo Bay.

Watch the liberals squeal when the Republican controlled congress (after the election) tries to correct all the mess the dumbocrats have caused.
Maybe you liberals should have remembered the old saying, "WHAT GOES AROUND, COMES AROUND.
There are a lot of blacks that are educated and, with enough common sense to be president. It is just a shame the democrats couldn't pick one of these, instead of a half breed racist liberal.

Subject: Article: Solution to Airport Security, Health Care Woes - Borowitz 1/7/09 Full Body Scans to Double as Annual Checkups - Solution to Airport Security, Health Care Woes by Andy Borowitz - The Borowitz Report - January 7, 2010 In what some in the White House are calling a "win/win" solution to the nation's airport security and health care reform problems, starting next month U.S. airports will begin conducting full body scans that will double as annual physical checkups.
President Obama announced the breakthrough solution, telling reporters, "With this all-purpose exam, we will be able to find everything from a hidden weapon to a spot on your lung."
After scanning a passenger, Mr. Obama said, "We will either give you a clean bill of health or wrestle you to the ground."
The President added that instituting the body scan/checkup could ward off some terrorists right from the start, "because a lot of them will balk at the $25 co-pay."
But according to Davis Logsdon, who studies terrorism and health care reform at the University of Minnesota, the body scans may attract more terrorists than they deter: "If there's one complaint that terrorists have about al-Qaeda it's that they have lousy benefits."
Elsewhere, a new book claims that actor Warren Beatty slept with 13,000 women, making him the second-ranked golfer in the world. ++

I fail to understand why you feel it is necessary to belittle and berate those who do not agree with your conservative right wing agenda. YOU LOST!! And why do you act surprised that there are rich Demo's? Did you think the Kennedy's were poor? Since Repubs must be poor(going by your posts), do you need to take up collections for Bush I, Bush II, and the rest? Your attempts to be cute with your word play are falling short. If all you President Obama haters would spend half the time you waste on copying & pasting and spend it on coming up with solutions to our problems...we would get out of this mess he inherited much faster. Oh, sorry, that would require that you think on your own and not parrot someone else.

Walk, this is a serious question. I'd really like to understand the distinction being made by so many conservatives here and I would appreciate it if you would offer your thoughts.
The wars, international diplomatic issues and domestic and international economic situation as well as the original round of stimulus legislation were solidly in place before Pres. Obama was elected.
Why is it not fair to note that he inherited both the collected mess they represent and the beginnings of the stimulus he's had to work with?

If the democrats think the republicans are so out of touch, why use a plan the republicans devised? Also, the way he is lying to the citizens seems to be the major problem most people have with obama. Things like transparency of policy, showing health care debates on c-span. It does seem anything he does that makes HIM look bad, gets spun to try and make him look good.

Wizard, I'm not sure where you're coming from here but just a straight up response to your post ...
The stimulus package has its roots in the failure of investment bankers in 2008. The presidential election, you might remember, was held in Nov of that year, eight months later.
I found a pretty decent timeline of the stimulus package and a bunch of other information about the economic situation at this site:
http://www.stimuluspackagedetails.com/time.html
As to Pres. Obama 'taking credit' ... well, he's the one making decisions about it now. Credit or blame, it falls on his doorstep.
Why are the Dems working with a plan set up by the Republicans? Because that's the legislation they had to work with ... it's bad enough without going back and mucking it up further.
And I patently don't agree with the last part of your post so have nothing to say about it.

Now in this Obamacare if a small business doesn't furnish health insurance to his employees he must pay a penalty on gross payroll yet Obama said he would not raise taxes on anyone making less than $250,000.00. You do not call that a lie??
He said he would bring all the troops home from Iraq yet he is sending them to Afghanistan. You do not call that a lie?
He said Gitmo would be closed in one year from his inaugration yet it is not closed. You don't call that a lie?
I could go on and on. Liar is a mild term for that thug.

The democrats started the "KILL GRANDMA" quote, instead of calling it what the republicans were talking about, "END OF LIFE PROVISION." The democrats were not lying when they said there was no kill grandma clause in the health care bill. They never mentioned the end of life provision everyone was talking about. Technically speaking, that wasn't a lie. The democrats were, to quote your phrase, comparing apples to fords.
It is useless for me to have a discussion with you, if you have no idea what a lie is.

The biggest lie is the one liberals/democrats tell themselves that "Obama does/hasn't lie/lied. FED UP/Kate/liberalbender and other OBAMA SUCKERS refuse to admitt that Obama lied to get elected and the American people are seeing how much of a liar he is. That is why his poll numbers have tanked and Democrats are fighting for their survial using bribes and closed door meetings to get THEIR LIAR OBAMA what he wants. Obama does not have America on his mind...he has HIMSELF!!!! That is why you are OBAMA SUCKERS.

Kate, I've posted this link before. http://politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/rulings/promise-broken/ Even if you only agree with ONE of them, he lied. Every politician lies. I am surprised you think he is above being a politician. The lobbyists and 5 days of public comment are the most dissapointing to me. But, I didn't fall for the promises in the first place. I was hoping he would be different and that he would turn us around, but he is failing miserably so far. I'm still giving him a little more time though, but he is still a liar.

FU, these are facts so Obama is the liar, not me.
Stokes Posted 23:59, 01/16/2010 Obama said 8 times during his campaign that he would have the healthcare debate on cspan. You don't think this was 8 times he lied?
Now in this Obamacare if a small business doesn't furnish health insurance to his employees he must pay a penalty on gross payroll yet Obama said he would not raise taxes on anyone making less than $250,000.00. You do not call that a lie??
He said he would bring all the troops home from Iraq yet he is sending them to Afghanistan. You do not call that a lie?
He said Gitmo would be closed in one year from his inaugration yet it is not closed. You don't call that a lie?
I could go on and on. Liar is a mild term for that thug.

Stokes, the things you list, in my opinion, are all statements he made during the campaign or early in his tenure of what he felt needed to be done or would be possible.
They are also situations where once Pres. Obama was in office and he had both more information and greater responsibility he came to understand those promises wouldn't be so simple to keep. There were more issues to be considered.
As a parent I might promise a trip to the shore for the family this summer. The reality of the electric bill from the first truly cold winter in a while might eat up all the available funds for that trip ... and we cannot go.
Was that a lie or a change in circumstances that make the trip impossible?
Pres. Reagan's assertion that he does not recall so much ... or, more to the point, the administration hiding his declining capacity was a lie.
Pres. Clinton insisting he "did not have sexual relations with that woman" was a lie.
Karl Rove outing Valerie Plame as a CIA operative and then denying it against all evidence to the contrary was a lie.
If it is possible, Stokes, I'd like you to watch this YouTube clip. And while you might not believe it, I'm not suggesting this as a confrontational thing. I offer it purely as a visual aide to you to explain some of my beliefs.
Yes it has an extreme agenda that I don't wish to forward. However, it presents a progression of clips concerning the Weapons of Mass Destruction argument from Pres. Bush, Vice Pres. Cheney, Sect. Rumsfeld, Sect. Rice and Gen. Powell in such a way that highlights why so many of us have such a visceral reaction to the Bush/Cheney administration.
Why I'm dumbfounded when people claim Pres. Obama lies yet support the last administration...
And yes, it is a clip of what I classify as lies. I don't mean about the WMD ... that was another case of better or different information. But how they handled that emerging fact.
They said one thing that turned out not to be true then claimed they never said that thing in the first place.
That was a lie.

Kate, broken promises are a lie. Even to your children or family. They may not be intentional. So if you suggest that maybe in the summer you'll take a trip that is different than saying to little margaret "I promise you Margaret, we will go on a trip this summer."
Obama promised some of these things with conviction. When he looked me in the eyes in the debates and said look, there will not be any lobbyists in my administration... HE LIED. What new information would cause him to change his mind? That he needed their money?

Kate, I would not have expected any other kind of answer from you. My Daddy used to laugh and say: So and so will tell something 2 or 3 ways to keep from telling a lie. I guess that is your defense of your president.
HE IS A LIAR AND A THUG FROM THE CHICAGO DALY CESS POOL. Nothing you can say will change that. Why do you and all the other liberals want to go back and bring up Bush EVERY TIME the thug is called out? That is not a defense for him. That isn't even an excuse. That would be like Bush using Clinton for an excuse or a defense. There is no reason he could not have put the healthcare debate on cspan. That TV station even called him out. A lie is a lie is a lie but I am certainly not surprised at your explanation.

But, as I say, fair enough. Thank you.

Hi Kate, if I understand you correctly, I am understanding your definition of a lie to be if a person acts and then denies that act, then that is a lie. Do you also agree that if I promised my kids a trip in the summer knowing we were not going on a trip at the time I said it, that it also was a lie? I think you do, but wanted to make sure.
Now, are you saying that when Obama said no lobbyist will be in his administration that he didn't realize he would need them at the time he said it? That he had good reason after the fact to change his mind? Thanks.

Slab, what I'm saying is that sometimes there are extenuating circumstances that make it necessary to do something different then stated. That's life. We all have to deal with that and accept disappointment. (as in the hypothetical promised trip derailed by unexpected bills)
If someone says or does a thing and then deliberately denies the act or that they ever said the thing in the first place (as in the claims of WMD as the primary reason to invade Iraq or the outing of Valerie Plame or the business with Monica Lewinsky ... you did it, you said it, don't deny it, that's a lie)
If someone says something but has no intention of following through on it. (as in your example of the promised trip that was never possible or intended) That is also a lie but for me to know that, it involves determining another person's mind and heart and I try not to make a practice of judging that.
I don't know the particularities of the lobbyists in Washington and Pres. Obama's administration but I dare say it's very difficult to get things done without the insiders ... and probably near impossible to swing a dead cat without hitting a dozen on any given day.
So, yes, I would say it is fair to say that is my opinion about lobbyists and Pres. Obama.
I hope that actually answers your questions. Thank you for furthering the conversation.

Cow, others have gone down this same garden path before with me. The two issues are entirely separate.
I post rational step by step examples of undeniable deceit on issues such as the reason for our invasion of Iraq (WMD) and Karl Rove's involvement in blowing Valerie Plame's cover as a CIA operative and I am accused of attacking a good president and following like a sheep.
Not true. I lived through those years and was paying attention.I have rarely been as offended as I was during those years with the repeated examples of obvious, manipulative and deliberate lies and misinformation.
In all cases thus far when folks tell me that Pres. Obama has lied the examples are issues that any incoming president has had where information and need of office have changed their minds or the reality of what they can or cannot do.
I did not read about the Chinese bow beyond the cursory bit ... I know it happened and I know some folks were very upset.
People lie. That is a given. I do not assign malice as often as some others do, however.
And, Cowchip, just because I don't agree with you doesn't mean I'm at the other end of the political spectrum.
It really is beyond belief, to use your own terminology, how difficult a concept it is for Conservatives to get their mind wrapped around the concept that there is more to the world then one end of the string and the other.
I am not a liberal. I am a moderate just like the majority of Americans ... not associated with either extreme and able to see value from many parties ... and BS from them as well.

why so many of us have such a visceral reaction to the Bush/Cheney administration
To make sure that you understand MY feelings toward your president, you take your reaction to the previous administration and multiply a 100 times is how I feel about your president and his administration. Not only is he a liar and a thug, he IS INCOMPETENT. He has NEVER run anything. He was not in congress enough to even know how it works because he was too busy campaigning for president. He has been a state legislator and a community organizer for God's sake. He cares about NOBODY but himself. May God help this country survive until 2012 without the monetary system collasping.
To which I replied:

and said something to the effect of whether obama lied or whether bush sr. lied or whether they both just broke promises, bush sr. lost the re-election bid partly to that, and I will remember Obama for what he said. Will I be able to believe him next go around? Next go around he will have been in office so he shouldn't make such foolish claims either right? Though I admit taxes may be more of a sore subject to many than lobbyists in an administration.

Please try to remember that all liberals are NOT Demos and all conservatives are NOT Repubs! I am an Independent and a liberal-I HAVE NO PARTY and All politicians lie...I don't care what party they claim...they make deals to further their own agenda. And we make them lie. We do not want to hear "I don't know"-we expect them to have an answer for everything. And it better be the right answer or they lose your vote. So they shift with the wind...meeting with AMA-I want to increase the fees you receive from Medicare...meeting with Seniors-I want to decrease drug cost and copays...meeting with Fortune 500-I want to reduce taxes. They fail to admit they can't do it all and make everyone happy and they hope you won't notice! And most don't. Or they jump on the politician who got caught with his/her pants down, failed to pay taxes, misused funds or whatever...in the hope that their misdeeds won't come to light. There is no difference in the parties-just a different name. And with al this-we still have the best in the world.

You can say what you want, but the fact remains that obama has done more damage to this country in 1 year than any other president. obama makes Bush look like a genius. obama has wasted more money in 1 year than Bush did in 8 years.
I know someone will remind me that Bush doubled the national debt. Don't forget to mention obama has quadrupled the national debt that Bush left.

It would be lovely if we could get off the outdated idea that we have a two-party system. With 300 billion people no two parties can hope to encompass the totality of our priorities and thinking.

At the National Prayer Breakfast Thursday, the commander in chief not only got a sailor's name wrong, but couldn't figure out how to pronounce "corpsman." Yes, he said "corpse-man."
Watch the video (http://patriotpost.us/perspective/2010/02/05/obama-calls-navy-corpsman-a-corpse-man/ ***************************************** What a disgrace! And insult to a MILITARY person! And you obama suckers think this is ok?

"The president dismisses his lack of success by claiming he has not communicated his message enough. Really? I don't care how many news conferences you have, how many speeches you give, or how much money you spend on public relations, if the dog food is bad, the dogs won't eat it." --former Oklahoma Congressman J. C. Watts

Stokes, do you really think that the majority of voters agree with you and your fellow Beckerheads? Anyhow, who do you have that could beat Obama? Your shining star,Palin? Don't make me laugh...Americans are not THAT stupid, at least not the ones who have the ability to see through right wing lies and forwarded emails. The 30% of repubs who still believe Obama was born in Kenya is not enough, Stokes. Oh, you'll win some house and senate seats, of course, but not enough to finish the job of destroying the country like you started.

There are two bright point to obama being elected president. 1-He has made sure Americans will never elect another black president. 2-He has done more to rip the democratic party apart than any Republican could have ever done.
Thank you obama for your help!

Thursday, February 18th, 2010 at 19:23 Tags: 9 commentsCitizen Kenya – Veritas News Service Exclusive – 18Feb10 Veritas News Service Exclusive 18Feb10 Contributed by John Spoony Citizen Kenya or… Agent Double-O Soul : WHO is he???
One thing he isn’t is a “natural born citizen” by definition of The Law Of Nations and more importantly, The Constitution For The United States Of America. Confronted with a challenging fact, a typical pattern of communist strategy is denial through ridicule in hope of convincing the public that it’s false. If that doesn’t work they will try to defame the character of those who accuse them, to weaken their credibility. If that doesn’t work they will threaten their opponent in attempt to scare them away. If that doesn’t work they’re busted… Here’s a brief example, a microcosm if you will: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNEEcUVbLh8 Defenders of Obama’s fraudulent activities tend to regurgitate the standard propaganda fed catch phrases like “right wing extremists”, “out on the fringe”, “Oh, you like Bush better!”, etc. But despite the massive media campaign to convince America that Barack is unquestionably eligible to hold our federal government’s highest office – and that anyone of the MANY people from the US and abroad who have stepped up to challenge Barack’s failure to present the NECESSARY documents is in the extreme minority – a recent AOL poll suggests that 81% of America WANTS TO SEE HIS ACTUAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE. The truth of the matter is that dozens of legal complaints have been filed against Mr. Obama, including a group of over 200 military personnel. Barack Hussein Obama has spent well over a million dollars in legal fees to keep his personal records and credentials sealed from public scrutiny. This includes school records, medical, passport, baptism, adoption records, legal clients and oh yeah, PROOF OF BIRTH! The very basic requirements for any American to hold office as the Commander In Chief of our great nation are that the candidate must be at least 35 years of age, must have at least 14 years of US residency AND must be a ‘natural born’ citizen of the United States Of America. Unfortunately for Mr. Obama, he has yet to prove that he is eligible for this position. What renders any argument over his birth place irrelevant is the FACT that he is not and cannot possibly be a natural born citizen – that is, if it’s even true that Barack Obama Sr., then a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies, is actually his father by birth. There are so many scandalous aberrations and Marxist implications within the historical data of a.k.a. Obama that I had to choose which pieces of the puzzle to cram into this short article. Let’s proceed… From Whence Did He Come?
That’s the $64,000 question. Numerous sources implicate that he was born in Kenya on August 4th, 1961 to an 18 year old girl named Stanley Ann Dunham – then the story gets fuzzy. In September 2008, The Times Herald wrote of the first civil lawsuit filed against O by Philip J. Berg, a fellow democrat

Look espeically at the last 2 paragraphs of this article. Unbelievable!!!
From Newsmax.com
4. Hillary’s Falklands Remarks Called ‘Betrayal’ of U.K. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has sparked tension with America’s closest ally, the United Kingdom, over comments she made regarding Britain’s dispute with Argentina over the Falkland Islands.
The islands in the South Atlantic have been a possession of Britain since 1833, and Britain went to war in 1982 to recapture the Falklands after Argentina — which claims the islands — invaded and seized them.
The sovereignty dispute took on new urgency recently when the U.K. decided to allow exploratory oil drilling 60 miles north of the islands, CNS News reported.
During her Latin American tour, Clinton stood beside Argentina’s President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner in Buenos Aires on Monday, and heard Kirchner say she would like her country to negotiate with Britain over the islands within the framework of United Nations resolutions.
Clinton agreed that the two sides should “sit down” and negotiate, and added, “If we can be of any help in facilitating such an effort, we stand ready to do so.”
The Argentine ambassador to the U.S., Hector Timerman, said he had never before heard “such substantial support” of Argentina from the U.S. over the Falklands dispute, according to CNS News.
A spokesman for the British government said in response to Hillary’s offer of American help, “We don’t think that’s necessary.”
Writing for Britain’s Daily Telegraph, Nile Gardiner — director of the Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom at the Heritage Foundation — called Clinton’s remarks “an astonishing betrayal of the United Kingdom by her closest ally, and yet another slap in the face for Britain from the Obama administration.”
He added, “She is giving her full support for the official stance of Buenos Aires, despite the fact that Great Britain has made it clear that the sovereignty of the Falklands is non-negotiable.”
Clinton’s comments are not the first “slap in the face from the Obama administration,” as Newsmax reported earlier. When British Prime Minister Gordon Brown became the first head of government to visit the White House last year, Obama let out word that a bust of Winston Churchill that Prime Minister Tony Blair had presented to the U.S. as a gift from the British people had been returned to the British Embassy.
Obama also canceled a joint news conference with Brown and excluded British reporters from covering Obama’s press conference, an act the Daily Telegraph called “rudeness personified towards Britain.”
