Will Trump and the Birthers now shut up?
Obama releases his long form birth certificate:
http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2011/...th-certificate Will Trump and his fellow travelers now have the decency to say "Sorry that we've been such barking fools"? I kinda like the little blurb below the long form certificate from the White House communications fellow: "At a time of great consequence for this country – when we should be debating how we win the future, reduce our deficit, deal with high gas prices, and bring stability to the Middle East, Washington, DC, was once again distracted by a fake issue. The President’s hope is that with this step, we can move on to debating the bigger issues that matter to the American people and the future of the country." |
It's about time. Should have done it long ago. Probably didn't realize so many Americans actually pay attention to such stupidity.:rolleyes:

It took some time to be certain all avenues were covered, and for the forgery to be perfect ;)
Finn, do you think it's even possible for Trump to shut up? lol. Pete |

Here's an interesting op-ed piece from today's Post, published before the release of the long-form certificate; http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinio...xsE_story.html "Haley Barbour’s announcement Monday that he will not seek the presidency is just the latest sign that politically sentient Republicans fear their party’s voters have moved so deeply into la-la land that winning their support in next year’s primaries could render their nominee unelectable in November....But Republicans are massively distracted by birtherism. A New York Times-CBS News poll last week showed that while 57 percent of Americans believe that President Obama was born in the United States, against 25 percent who didn’t, just 33 percent of Republicans believed him American-born, while 45 percent did not. The Republican level of birtherism was effectively identical to that of self-identified Tea Party supporters, 34 percent of whom thought Obama was U.S.-born, while 45 percent did not. Which is to say that the loopy, enraged divorce from reality of the Tea Potniks has infected the entire party." Obama seems to have followed the old adage "never interfere with your enemy when he is destroying himself." Obie played these clowns like a fiddle. |
Well, I guess The Donald won't shut up:
"Donald Trump, who's popularity as a possible Republican presidential contender shot up after he started questioning the whereabouts of President Obama's birth certificate, said Wednesday he is "so proud" the president has finally released his forms. "I am so proud of myself because I've accomplished something that nobody else has been able to accomplish," Trump said from Portsmouth, N.H., where he was giving early primary voters a close-up look at a potential presidential campaign. "I feel I've accomplished something really, really important and I'm honored for it," Trump said." http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011...h-certificate/ What a friggin' maroon.:rolleyes: |

"A Gallup/USA Today poll released Tuesday found that only 38 percent of Americans said they believe Obama was definitely born in the United States while 18 percent said he probably was and 15 percent said he probably was born in another country. Nine percent said he definitely was born elsewhere. The same poll showed only 43 percent believed Trump was born in the United States and 20 percent said he probably was." :confused: Regards, D-Ray |
