My friends at YesToDemocracy.com have been following the obsessed believers (called "birfers") in the whacked out conspiracies about Barack Obama's birth certificate for a long time now. The birfers' struggle to unseat Barack Obama remained under the sanity radar until around the time our Liza reported on them. Their court-clogging antics have been good for some chuckles, and not much more.
But in these last hours before Barack Obama is inaugurated, I'd like to indulge them, and perhaps even vindicate them.
Let's just assume Barack Obama's birth certificate is as fake as a politically motivated mugging/face-carving. Picture it under lock and key, guarded by Hawaiian Knights Templar, who know of your struggle and cackle about it over dinner.
The document, visible through an impenetrable forcefield that Obama himself invented, contains incontrovertable proof that...Obama was born in Kenya. Wait, no, it doesn't have a name, but a serial number! Obama is a robot! Or it shows that his name is really Barry Williams, and he was switched at birth with the Brady Bunch guy, who is the rightful heir to the Presidency. Take your pick.
What do you think will happen on Tuesday, after Obama is sworn in? It is too late to stop it now. The Supreme Court will still be sugaring up their coffee when he takes the oath. What do you think will happen to you birfers then?
You'll be disappeared into a subterranean sweatshop, where you'll painstakingly hand-paint the Obama logo onto White House stationery and copies of the Bible, and beg your foreman, William Ayres, for a sip of his Perrier. That's if you're lucky.
My advice would be to go into hiding right now, the sooner, the better. Run like the wind, sand off your fingerprints, swap jugs of urine and other fluids to foil the biometrics, and don't ever look back.
Before long, some sharp journalist will notice, either way , that all of the birfers have vanished, and the world will know: You were right! You were right all along.
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. TJ

Obama will not produce his real birth certificat and or supreme court will sell the Constitution out by not at lest putting the facts on the table and give a ruling on facts.

Didn't believe it in the first place. However, if Tommy says it isn't true, it must be true. He's never been right.

I don't care if Obama was born on the moon. I still want him as my next President.

If his birth certificate is fake, and he is from Kenya, he will be a usurper to the Presidency. Does nobody care that this could in fact be a huge steaming turd dropped on the constitution?

And can you imagine -- the Supreme Court is considering letting him use their 5th floor basketball court!
Do we suppose a scraped knee is sufficient to appease John Adams's blood lust?
Stay tuned...

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME OUR AWARD CENTER HAS SHOWN THERE TO BE TWO FINALISTS.
SO, WATCH FOR YOUR MAIL... YOUR IDIOT OF THE YEAR AWARD IS ON IT'S WAY.
To Button: Actually, most people don't care. Those same people were too busy demanding that Sarah Palin prove Trig was her child and not Bristols.
Basically, Obama refused to turn over his birth, medical, educational and work records. While I admire his ability to pull that off, it suggests to me that Obama isn't the brilliant scholar and statesman that some would have us believe.
Harvard likes diversity. You don't have to be a genius to get in. That's why they don't list their minimum requirements for admission. If you're a Native American Albino Buddist Dwarf ... you've got a good chance. Those soft factors are sweet on admission apps. Anyway, I've always wondered why a prestigious law firm didn't snap him up if he was so brilliant ... Michelle scored a good job. Obama networked into a Senator position. His work and accountability on the Annenburg Challenge was a disgrace. An impressive resume ... where the hell is it? When the public goes sour on Obama they'll start szquealing for more disclosure ... until then enjoy the evasive nondisclosure that sounds like an answer.

If Obama is a natural born citizen, then his paternal grandmother, who lives in Kenya, lied. Why would she lie?
When there was question about John McCain's citizenship, he quickly produced his birth certificate and his medical records to prove it. Would it kill Obama to do the same?
Sounds like a man with something to hide.

Well, since you asked. After he is sworn in and he is found not to be a NBC then he could be arrested for treason. Anyone who plotted with him could also be indicted. So, you Obamabots better hope he is eligible to be POTUS. YOUR WORST FEARS ARE A POSSIBILITY!

Barack Obama is about to make history. He's been involved in more scandals, between his election and his swearing in, than any President-elect in history.
