Sign me up as a “birther” is you wish, but allow me to define myself rather than let others do it.

There is an open, unsettled question of Obama’s birth status. If he does not have anything to hide, he need only authorize the proper documentation to be made public. Why would he skate on doing so?

When James Madison talked with his great friend and mentor George Mason about whether a Bill of Rights was necessary, Mason advised Madison to write them down because it would “cause great peace among the people.”

Obama should take Mason’s advice.

If more conservatives spent time talking about REAL issues instead of nonsense like Obama’s birth certificate and educational records

Reminds me of a message on a mail list I subscribe to after the death of Senator Kennedy by a gay, self-described “aging hippie” who derided the mention (by some) in the media of an incident ‘that happened forty years ago’ [ie, the death of Mary Jo Kopechne]—as if there should be a statute of limitations on the mere mention of unprosecuted negligent homicide because someone spent their life “helping the poor” (albeit with someone else’s money, natch).

If these basic things in someone’s past are irrelevant, then the logical extension is that someone who diddled little kids sometime in their past or was charged with sexual assault (but only if they’re not Republican) is perfectly eligible to become President of the US, as long as they manage to seal and conceal any evidence of same.

Wonder though if Yahoo! ever led with news about the Tribune’s series.

My guess is “probably not”. Aside from that, there’s a reason that conservatives in Chicagoland (including gay ones) refer to the Chicago Tribune as ‘The Libune’. If they think that El Presidente was being “largely accurate” but misleading in the facts—and they’re in the tank for him, imagine what they chose to overlook as unimportant or irrelevant.

Facts, thanks for mentioned that, but the title refers to a national news service whereas the Chicago Tribune is a local paper.

So, it does seem the local news are doing the work for Democrats the national media does for Republicans. Wonder though if Yahoo! ever led with news about the Tribune’s series.

I’ve read that there’s two letters of certification the DNC filled out at the convention. One certifies that Chairman Obama and the other idiot meet the constitutional requirements. The one which was sent to the state election committees did not. Alternatively, the RNC certification letter sent to the states did contain that wording.

If so, why two different letters?

Sorry, now I’m confused… I keep refreshing the page and sometimes I see it and sometimes I don’t. Sorry folks; keep questioning the dems but go after them where it matters, and it’s not birth certificates. how about obama signing more drone attacks in Afghanistan/Pakistan/Iraq in his first year than Bush did in his last 3 years?

Wow, I posted a comment complaining about the irrelevant nonsense on here (birthers, etc.) and how it demeaned the credibility of the blog and it was deleted. If you can’t take criticism and squelch opposition, don’t be a blogger. Smooth.

The Chicago Tribune actually fact-checked at least one of Obama’s books as part of
an eight-part series. They’re in the Trib’s archives now so I haven’t
bothered to delve deeper. Maybe a conservative who cares will be willing
to actually dig them up and claim they gave him a free pass.

“Each book club will meet twice to discuss the book, a biographical
account the Tribune found through its own eight-part series to be largely
accurate but sometimes misleading in the details.”
