OK, so they are not unaware that they are morans. Good.

Is this the first noncontroversial thing (by Fark's standards) WND has ever said?

 
Sid_6.7 [TotalFark] 2009-06-27 09:30:27 AM  
I hate these people. Obama was born:

1. In the state of Hawaii, part of the US by that time.

2. To a mother who held US citizenship.

Either of those makes him a citizen.

Hell, McCain was born in the PCZ and you don't hear them being paranoid about that. (Probably because he is white. There, I said it.)

Aside from the standard craziness, the statement that Obama is "the most left-wing president in history" is new to me and considerably ups their lunatic factor, a feat I didn't think was possible for WND.

If the liberals had'nt used ACORN and stollen the election for Barry HUSSAIN Obama then they would of been yelling "OMFG hes not a CITIZEN" about President Mccain whose a real citizen because the canals US property . If you doubt my truth just read the daily KOS or the new York Times to see how the Democrat party is -- they cant tell the truth about ANYTHING like how ObeyMe is having a cencus to keep track of how big the internmnt camps will need to be to hold all the Real Americans who have being trying to stop him from givin OUR country to the muslins.

And if you can't see this which is plain as the nose on your face your a moran.

Have you heard the new talking point? When faced with the very sensible question, which is "Why the hell would Obama or any Democratic politician want to do these crazy left-wing things you're implying that they're doing, since it would doom their chance of reelection", the idea is that Obama is just in office to do as much damage as is possible in the four years he has until such a point as his term runs out or he's impeached.

People have actually told this to me in response to the question. I suspect they read WND and listen to Rush. The crazy idea that he's not actually our president, that he's some sort of Manchurian candidate with a fake birth certificate, lying to get into office just so he can use his radical agenda, has been deliberately fueled by the fringe Right as a way of justifying any sort of attack against him. After all, "Respect the President", that we heard when Bush was in office, doesn't apply when Obama's, of course, not the real president. He's an impostor! That means we can fight him tooth and nail.

And this is why the GOP is tearing itself apart and spiraling down the drain.

Here's the thing: I can kind of see where most conspiracy theories come from. I mean, the JFK assassination is sort of shady, the MLK assassination even more so, and, yeah, the collapse of the WTC on 9/11 does look a little funny at first glance (if you don't actually then research the physics behind it.)

But this birth certificate thing is utterly insane. The state of Hawaii has confirmed there is a valid, certified birth certificate for him. There is a birth notice for him in the newspaper at that time.

There is absolutely nothing here. It's absolutely deranged.

He's released his COLB. Hawaii statute 338:18 prevents the release of his original birth certificate. There's a specific legal reason why the "original, long-form" certificate can't and won't be released to the public. Its existence and validity have been verified by the Hawaii Department of Health's director.

What the fark will satisfy them, that's legally permissible?

Nothing will. But it doesn't even matter. His mother (pops) was a US citizen, therefore he is too, regardless of where he was born. He could have been born on the moon, for all it matters. One US citizen as a parent equates to a US citizen as a child. It's a non-issue, but these nuts are going to attack it anyways.

Sighhhhhhh...

You do know that the Constitution requires the President to be native-born. Right?

So, his mother's citizenship is totally moot. She could have been from any country. But the President has to be a native-born citizen. Remember? Schwarzenegger wanted to change the law at one time to make himself eligible?

Jeez.

And I do wish people would shut the fark up about the birth certificate. It's there. It's been certified. Kreist, you asshats.

All that B. Hussein Obama has to do is present the original, bonofide birth certificate for public inspection. He can do that no matter what the rules of Hawaii are.

He refuses. Why?

He's already spent over a MILLION dollars in legal fees fighting the constitutional requirement to do that.

WHY?

Those two don't go together.

Natural born citizen, in the context of US law, means EITHER:
a) A child of any parentage born in the USA, OR
b) A child with a parent who is a US citizen, born anywhere.

Basically it means someone who is a citizen because of their birth, not because they applied for citizenship. My brother's friend is a natural born US citizen even though he was born in Germany.

thamike: One must actually have a theory in order to be a conspiracy theorist.

They've got a theory. The theory is that:

1) Obama was actually born in Kenya
2) Someone planted a birth notification in a Hawaii newspaper over 40 years ago because they knew his natural-born citizenship would be important one day
3) The birth certificate released by Obama is fake.

It's a great theory.

At WND, we don't mock patriotic Americans trying to set their country right. We don't rewrite White House press releases and call it news. We don't bow and scrape before President Obama or anyone else. We don't pretend abortion is OK, or that same-sex marriage is good, or that global warming is "proven science," or that more government is the solution to all problems, or that Palestinian leaders wants peace, or that the Constitution is old-fashioned, or that the "Federal Reserve" is good for America. In short, we're not politically correct and we have no sacred cows. Instead, we really do strive to tell the truth that Americans desperately need and deserve to hear.

Holy shiat, the laughter resulted in hot coffee out my nose. Ouch ;/

It showed that those that are the most confident in their abilities are often the least competent. Bush verified that in spades.

Friends, can you imagine, during America's Revolutionary War days, the press covering the Boston Tea Party by mocking it and turning virtually every sentence into a sexual joke?

I know that WND's lunacy is apparent in just about every sentence, but this one struck me as especially humorous. These fecal-brained reactionaries actually equate themselves with those who helped spark the Revolution.

The teabaggers were laughed at because they were a fkn joke. Period.

I know you might take the "at the time of the adoption" part out of context, but don't bother. Natural born and naturalized can be fought in the courts. It just hasn't yet. And despite what the meatheads wish to do, it won't be this time.
