No man should hold that power,

power corrupts, thats why there is supposed to be checks and balances.

amazing woman, and great book!!!



Obama is the wrong man to hold such power. He is only a well groomed puppet. We were taught to respect the office. no 

I wish I could bring that pride to the next generation. I will not until it is an office worth respecting once again.

I thought I would share.

vko, not sure why you wouldn't care if he's an american, when it's required to be a president in this country.

but I'm on board with your frustration at the whole deal, people were looking for change from the worst war mongerer in the history of the U.S. and they got more of that and Karl marx to boot!!!

doesn't matter if purple aliens bring socialism to the U.S.A. it still sucks!!!!

I care very little if they call him the first black pres, he's half white anyways so that's not even true.  I do however care that he protects and respects our constitution which he's sworn to do,"on the bible" and also protect our personal liberties guaranteed by that document.

I'm very tired of anything less,
and lip service doesn't cut it you have to actually have actions that deliver such.

 




Yawn...major, major yawn.  Posting a two year old article that is not even accurate settles is?  Hardly.

 

I'm done with this, though, so believe what you wish.  I'm out.

OK, Obama draws drama. LOL

Why don't I try a whole new venue. The ND Pension Fund.  How about reading a couple articles on it and getting some opinions on this. We can form a bit more discussion on it. Maybe something a bit more productive. The problem with $4 billion is a good start.

Just 2 quick sources to start. Tag you're it...

I do not care where President Obama was born.  He was voted into Office.  Is he a good President?  Is he doing the right thing for the United State of America?  Does he have the backbone to stand up for every citizen in United State's.   I hold my very own Judgement of that.   Although he is the President and I respect the Office.

Sigma,

Snopes can not be your end all when asking a question. Please go to the end of this article and read the final warning.

I issued one thing that does warrant further investigation. More than just snopes.com
I did not say you should believe this. There is evidence on both sides of the coin that questions Obama and his birthplace.





When mentioned to “go to the message at the end of the site and check the warning, I misunderstood and went to the message at the end of the site Ms. Evans initially posted. Here is what I found:

From http://smartgirlpolitics.ning.com/profiles/blogs/hawaii-admits-there-is-no?xg_source=facebookshare "I found this on another forum and there was no source with it. Sorry. When do we all go down to Washington and throw the imposter out?"

Which says that there is no real evidence for this claim, but we should "throw the imposter out" anyways.

I think, however, that Ms. Evans was directing me to the last paragraph on the factcheck.org site. Here we have an article, the bulk of which praises snopes.com for its fairness and accuracy with warning at the end that amounts to a disclaimer never to trust one site implicitly. That’s find, which is why I posted multiple articles in addition to the one from snopes.com. So to say I relied solely on that site is inaccurate. I also included a USA Today article, an article from Slate magazine, and an article from factcheck.org (though I will admit that I used the same factcheck.org site twice in error.) Such a disclaimer is also a convenient way for factcheck.org to protect their own integrity, as they said that even posts on their own site are not 100% free from error. Such a disclaimer is prudent given the nature of their site and the nebulous interaction between belief and truth.

I posit that further investigation into the birther myth is about as fruitful as going to Scotland to ask the Loch Ness Monster on a date. I do not see anything worth investigating, as the evidence towards a legitimate birth in Hawaii far outweighs any evidence to the contrary. I suppose I must insert my own disclaimer saying that I feel a person can believe what they wish. This is still America, after all. But that does not mean I have to agree, nor does it mean I have to give fair time to a theory I find preposterous. Conversely, anyone is free to ignore my thoughts on the matter as they see fit.

Seriously?  I mean, really? Tell l me exactly why I should believe Tim Adams when there is ample evidence out there (see the snopes article) proving that he was born in Hawaii.

It's actually quite humorous.

I got this. There is a recording that has a man who seems to verify, Obama was not born in Hawaii. The records office is aware of this. I will post it and let you all decide the content for yourselves.

Sigma, I completely agree with you on that one.  The police did EXACTLY what they should have done.  They allowed freedom for all parties AND protected them at the same time. 

I have to say though, that dude at the very end of this video was an idiot.  I have a feeling he doesn't even really know what he's angry about.  He just knows he's supposed to be angry and Jews...well...uhh...just because...smile.gif

Brave kid.  I'm impressed.  I'm also happy to see the police protecting him.  God Bless America, huh?

Ran into a couple interesting Youtube videos on a website called jihadwatch.com.  One about a high school Jewish kid in a mob of Muslim Palestinians.  The other a farcical video spoofing the old "We are the World" video.
