Because he *did* release his birth certificate and the birthers just
started ranting about how they wanted to see the *other* birth certificate
too. And he released his passport and the birthers started ranting about
how that wasn't good enough either, and now they want to see his *other*
passport. Not to mention the college records and so on and so forth.

He's even had the Republican governor of Hawaii herself go public and
say that yes, she's seen the records and can attest that he was born
there and they're *still* not letting it go.

Anybody with half a brain can see that the birthers will *never* be
satisfied and will *never* give it a rest. So eventually you just have
to throw up your hands and give up on them. Why should he give them
any more of his attention when it will clearly accomplish nothing.
He's got a country to run and has better things to do than appease a
bunch of foaming nut-jobs who can't be appeased anyway.

I had a theory -- sadly not yet borne out -- that Obama was sitting on
the "other" birth certificate in order to see how many Republican
congresspeople he could get to jump on the birther bandwagon, in order
to maximize the humiliation factor when he finally released it. Well,
I can dream.


None of which matters since by all admissions Obama was born to
a British subject of Kenya and an American female just turned
adult. Therefore whether he was born in Hawaii or on the Moon
he doesn't qualify according to the Constitution.

Pardon??????
His mother was a US Citizen. If he was born in Hawaii of a US Citizen
mother of ANY age, and the father was ANYBODY AT ALL, he is a citizen
by birth, and qualifies according to your constitution.

Of course anyone with half a brain saw these problems years ago
so the issue goes beyond Obamas fraud and involves a nest of
conspirators.

Most of the Congress, members of the Democratic party and many
judges and bureaucrats are ripe for charges of treason.



Just for the record, they COULD have "a 48 year old birth certificate
for someone who wasn't born there".

Are you saying this is what happened? Are you truly not satisfied
that he was born in Hawaii, even after the governor herself has
vouched for it?
