What exactly do you people want?
You can cry about it the whole time Obama is President, and cry about it in 2012 when Obama gets re-elected, but it won't help. How long are people going to continue with this Obama's Birth Certificate Shenanigan?forever|||Obama has not shown his birth certificate, he's only posted a computer-generated "birth certification" on line. There is a difference. Obama has refused to release his vaulted birth certificate and Hawaiin officials will not reveal any of it's contents for privacy reasons. These are the facts.

How long are people going to continue with this Obama's Birth Certificate Shenanigan?Typical liberal - Bammy says a "Certificate of Live Birth" is just as good as a real birth certificate, so you're happy to accept that. Evidence is that the COLB was digitally altered as well, but you don't care. You like change.Report Abuse
|||As long as it takes to get him to provide his real birth certificate not the fake one he posted on the web.

Nothing can convince them. Ignore them. It is attention that they seek, not truth.|||I'm afraid time travel is the only thing that'll convince the hardcore conspiracy nuts.|||I think the last act plays today when the Supreme Court announces whether it will hear whatever nonsense is being purveyed in this matter. I assume it will decline (though who knows? ) and after that the foil-hat gang will be reduced to impotent whining|||As long as it takes for him to provide the REAL one. Once there is transparency I will be happy.|||Until somebody is sacrificed in the ridiculous media/internet frenzy that makes people need to see blood. My prediction is that the birth certificate has nothing that will disprove his eligibility. But it has something that Obama feels is not necessary to be out there in the public - like maybe his mom was pregnant before and had an abortion or maybe she gave up a previous child in adoption. So then the fanatics will have to track down that poor person and ruin their life in the media spotlight. Or maybe there was some erroneous or ambiguous but irrelevant information that serves no purpose being out in the general public. Did other president elects provide their birth certificates or is this just a witch hunt? I applaud Obama for sticking to whatever his reasons are - if he caves into this, what distraction ploy will be made next? |||How long will Obama continue with it?|||even david horowitz of the national review think the republicans are whining....
Obama Derangement Syndrome
Shut up about the birth certificate.
By David Horowitz
The continuing efforts of a fringe group of conservatives to deny Obama his victory and to lay the basis for the claim that he is not a legitimate president is embarrassing and destructive. The fact that these efforts are being led by Alan Keyes, a demagogue who lost a Senate election to the then-unknown Obama by 42 points, should be a warning in itself.
This tempest over whether Obama, the child of an American citizen, was born on American soil is tantamount to the Democrats’ seditious claim that Bush “stole” the election in Florida and hence was not the legitimate president. This delusion helped to create the Democrats’ Bush derangement syndrome and encouraged Democratic leaders to lie about the origins of the Iraq war, and regard it as illegitimate as Bush himself. It became “Bush’s War” rather than an American War — with destructive consequences for our troops and our cause.
The birth-certificate zealots are essentially arguing that 64 million voters should be disenfranchised because of a contested technicality as to whether Obama was born on U.S. soil. (McCain narrowly escaped the problem by being born in the Panama Canal zone, which is no longer American.)
What difference does it make to the future of this country whether Obama was born on U.S. soil? Advocates of this destructive campaign will argue that the constitutional principle regarding the qualifications for president trumps all others. But how viable will our Constitution be if five Supreme Court justices should decide to void 64 million ballots?
Conservatives are supposed to respect the organic nature of human societies. Ours has been riven by profound disagreements that have been deepening over many years. We are divided not only about political facts and social values, but also about what the Constitution itself means. The crusaders on this issue choose to ignore these problems and are proposing to deny the will of 64 million voters by appealing to five Supreme Court Justices (since no one is delusional enough to think that the four liberal justices are going to take the presidency away from Obama). What kind of conservatism is this?
It is not conservatism; it is sore loserism and quite radical in its intent. Respect for election results is one of the most durable bulwarks of our unity as a nation. Conservatives need to accept the fact that we lost the election, and get over it; and get on with the important business of reviving our country’s economy and defending its citizens, and — by the way — its Constitution.
