Very Interesting questions.
More questions, and this time some_good_ questions.

While some have little interest in getting in the middle of the Obama birth
issue, Paul Hollrah over at FSM did so yesterday and believes the issue
can be resolved by Obama answering one simple question:

*_What passport did he use when he was shuttling between
New York , Jakarta , and Karachi ?

So how did a young man who arrived in New York in early June
1981, without the price of a hotel room in his pocket, suddenly come up
with the price of a round-the-world trip just a month later?

*And once he was on a plane, shuttling between New York , Jakarta , and
Karachi , what passport was he offering when he passed through Customs
and Immigration?

*The American people not only deserve to have answers to these
questions, they must have answers.

It makes the debate over Obama's citizenship a rather short and simple one.

*Q: Did he travel to Pakistan in 1981, at age 20?
A : Yes, by his own admission.

*Q: What passport did he travel under?
A: There are only three possibilities.
1) He traveled with a U.S. Passport,
2) He traveled with a British passport, or
3) He traveled with an Indonesian passport.

Q: Is it possible that Obama traveled with a U.S. Passport in 1981?
A: No. It is not possible. Pakistan was on the U.S. State Department's
"no travel" list in 1981.

Conclusion:
When Obama went to Pakistan in 1981 he was traveling either with a
British passport or an Indonesian passport.

If he were traveling with a British passport that would provide proof
that he was born in Kenya on August 4, 1961, not in Hawaii as he claims.
And if he were traveling with an Indonesian passport, that would tend to
prove that he relinquished whatever previous citizenship he held,
British or American, prior to being adopted by his Indonesian
step-father in 1967.

Whatever the truth of the matter, the American people need to know how he
managed to become a "natural born" American citizen between 1981 and 2008..

Given the destructive nature of his plans for America, as illustrated by his
speech before Congress
and the disastrous spending plan he has presented to Congress, the sooner we
learn the truth of all this, the better.

I agree with you. Many things that are being done are not authorized by
the Constitution. Ex. over 30 Czars not authorized by Congress and being
paid with our tax dollars. I think he knows his days are numbered as
President and that's why he is pushing so much through. I hope we can
undo the things he and Pelosi have managed to get passed. Nuff said!

You're right, his days are numbered. He has the rest of this term and all of
the next. Chances are high that he will be reelected. By the time of the
next election, the economy will have improved (which would happen whether he
did anything or not). The people, being as wise as they generally are, will
attribute the economic recovery to him and reelect him.

You get a tax break and he had to spend to clean up Bush's mess maybe you
should pay more attention.

Hmmm....

Tax and spend dems, where you get services for what is spent or tax and give
it away repubs, where you get nothing for what is spent. The choice is
clear to me.

Maybe YOU should pay more attention. Ask yourself these questions:

If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense of the Special
Olympics, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and
incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a
thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing
videos of his speeches, would you have thought this embarrassingly
narcissistic and tacky?

If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would you
have approved?

If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the
nonexistent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a
minor slip?

If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with
people who cannot seem to keep current on their income taxes, would
you have approved?

If George W. Bush had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to “Cinco
de Cuatro” in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the fourth
of May (Cuatro de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again,
would you have winced in embarrassment?

If George W. Bush had misspelled the word advice would you have
hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and potatoe as “proof”
of what a dunce he is?

If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a
single tree on “Earth Day,” would you have concluded he’s a hypocrite?

If George W. Bush’s administration had okayed Air Force One flying low
over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown
Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether
they actually “get” what happened on 9-11?

If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a teleprompter
installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have
laughed and said this is more proof of how he is inept he is on his
own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes?

If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims
throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than
in New Orleans, would you want it made into a major ongoing political
issue with claims of racism and incompetence?

If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of=2 0a major
corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so,
would you have approved?

If GeorgeW. Bush had proposed to double the national debt, which had
taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you
have approved?

If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again within 10
years, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had reduced your retirement plan’s holdings of GM
stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake in GM, would you
have approved?

If George W. Bush had spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to take
Laura Bush to a play in NYC, would you have approved?

So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant
and impressive? Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all
this in 5 months -- so you'll have three years and seven months to
come up with an answer.

No, but I didn't approve of his, "Bring it on" comment either.

If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and
incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a
thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have approved?


No, but I didn't think much of his comment, "You're doing a good job,
Brownie" either.

If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing

Are you sure that's what was on the Video? Just think of the laughs the
Queen would have enjoyed watching a video of The Shrub's speeches.

If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would you
have approved?


Nope. To my knowledge, none of America's presidents have ever bowed to
foreign potentates.

If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the
nonexistent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a
minor slip?


What language does Bush speak?

If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with
people who cannot seem to keep current on their income taxes, would

Well, one thing about it; they were at least smart enough to do their own
taxes, something not many in Bush's cabinet could claim.

If George W. Bush had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to "Cinco
de Cuatro" in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the fourth
of May (Cuatro de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again,
would you have winced in embarrassment?


Are you sure it wasn't "Cinco de Mayo"?

If George W. Bush had misspelled the word advice would you have
hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and potatoe as "proof"
of what a dunce he is?


Well, duh !

If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a
single tree on "Earth Day," would you have concluded he's a hypocrite?


George Bush wouldn't have to do anything more than he has already to
convince me that he's a hypocrite.

If George W. Bush's administration had okayed Air Force One flying low
over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown
Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether
they actually "get" what happened on 9-11?


You haven't really kept up with the rest of that story, have you.

installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have
laughed and said this is more proof of how he is inept he is on his

If anyone ever needed a teleprompter to keep himself on message, to keep
from mauling the English language and to keep from making an ass of himself,
it has to be George Bush.

If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims
throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than
in New Orleans, would you want it made into a major ongoing political
issue with claims of racism and incompetence?


What news sources are you depending on for your info?

If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of=2 0a major
corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so,
would you have approved?


Nope, and I don't approve of Obama's act either.

If GeorgeW. Bush had proposed to double the national debt, which had

No. I don't approve of budget busting.

If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again within 10
years, would you have approved?


You're being redundant.

If George W. Bush had reduced your retirement plan's holdings of GM
stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake in GM, would you
have approved?


Oh, hell no!

If George W. Bush had spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to take
Laura Bush to a play in NYC, would you have approved?


Damn right, she's a cutie.

So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant
and impressive?


In contrast to Bush? Uh...brains, education, ability. Too bad his
political philosophy is just as far to the left as Bush's was to the right.

Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all
this in 5 months -- so you'll have three years and seven months to

Bit of a different horse there

Well, given that it was the White House who disclosed what was on the
iPod, I guess that is a good question.

If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would you

Nope. To my knowledge, none of America's presidents have ever bowed to
foreign potentates.


There is absolutely zero doubt that the current president did bow to the
king of Saudi Arabia. The excuses given that he was bending because of
height differences, etc. just don't stand up to scrutiny of the actual
video. The current president of the US bowed to the leader of the House of
Saud.


If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the
nonexistent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a
minor slip?


What language does Bush speak?


Interesting response. Pretty much answers the original question -- the
meme was that Bush was an idiot, the current idiot in chief has made way
more gaffes (All 57 states ...) and pretty much gets a pass.

If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with
people who cannot seem to keep current on their income taxes, would

Well, one thing about it; they were at least smart enough to do their own
taxes, something not many in Bush's cabinet could claim.


Wow, this is fun. The fact is they were *NOT* smart enough to do their
own taxes as evidenced by the fact that they did not do those taxes.

If George W. Bush had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to "Cinco
de Cuatro" in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the fourth
of May (Cuatro de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again,
would you have winced in embarrassment?

Yep, your president is a pandering dunce.


If George W. Bush had misspelled the word advice would you have
hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and potatoe as "proof"

Well, duh !


Double standard much?


If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a
single tree on "Earth Day," would you have concluded he's a hypocrite?


George Bush wouldn't have to do anything more than he has already to
convince me that he's a hypocrite.


... and statists have the nerve to say that conservatives are biased. We
at least had the temerity to disagree with Bush when he was wrong --
Medicare Drug Bill, Amnesty for Illegals.

If George W. Bush's administration had okayed Air Force One flying low
over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown
Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether
they actually "get" what happened on 9-11?


You haven't really kept up with the rest of that story, have you.


Oh, please enlighten us. How do you salvage this situation? Especially
after the administration initially had planned to keep the pictures taken
classified until the hue and cry became so great that they released ONE
photo -- a photo that could just as easily been generated with Photoshop
rather than the enormous waste of resources by flying the presidential
plane and scaring the populace of NYC silly. Actually, it's kind of poetic
justice since NYC contains a majority of Obama voters, so from that
standpoint, it was kind of a win.

If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a teleprompter
installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have
laughed and said this is more proof of how he is inept he is on his
own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes?


If anyone ever needed a teleprompter to keep himself on message, to keep
from mauling the English language and to keep from making an ass of
himself, it has to be George Bush.


Uhhh, umm it would cost ... uhhh about ummm, ahhh, hold-on I'm gonna get to
it, uhhhh ahhhh ummmm it would cost about .....

[Hint, that wasn't GWB who stuttered that phrase]


If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims

political philosophy is just as far to the left as Bush's was to the

Frankly, the guy is either heavily editing himself when talking, or is a
bigger dunce than you ever thought Bush was. His actions and activities
appear calculated to destroy the US economy and free market. You don't
solve the previous budget deficit by tripling it (and that is by optimistic
estimates). The man has never run anything in his life. The only thing he
has done is campaign for the next highest office. He spent less than 144
days in the Senate before starting to run for POTUS and sponsored or pushed
no major legislation, one can't point to a single accomplishment. I used
to think that he memorized well and was able to regurgitate the teachings
of his mentors (Ayers, Alinski, etc.). However, given his performance
off-teleprompter, even that is questionable. If he succeeds in
implementing his agenda, the US will not be the same country we grew up in.
Even the Europeans are starting to see what their socialist utopia has
wrought and they are just now starting to try to roll some of that back.
This president on the other hand has his foot on the accelerator to push
this country into that same flawed societal model.

If you really listen to what he says, he's not cool, he's cold.

Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all
this in 5 months -- so you'll have three years and seven months to
come up with an answer.

So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant

this in 5 months -- so you'll have three years and seven months to

PERFECT!!!!!! Cant wait to hear an answer to the above!

Decent points except:

The percentage of GM stock stolen by Obama and redistributed to Big
Brother and the Unions is 100%. Any common stockholder that owned GM
common stock lost 100% of it to the government and the unions.

Also, a question you missed: If George W. Bush had mentioned, in
public,(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpGH02DtIws) that he had visited
all 57 states, except Alaska and Hawaii, would you have called him dumb?

Also begging the question is: If George W. Bush had attended David Dukes
sermons every week for years where Dukes blamed blacks for everything
plaguing us from Aids to Zebra breath, would you consider Bush a racist?

If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with

I must have my history confused. Didn't GM go to the government asking for
bailouts? In a private jet, no less? During the Bush administration?

If the government had refused that bailout, how much of the GM common stock
would be lost? 100%.

Creditors end up owning the company after a bankruptcy. Both the union and the
government were major creditors. Nothing was stolen.

I suspect it is going to be a lousy investment for the taxpayers, but that is a
different subject.

Incorrect. It was an Advisory, regrading new Visa requirements, not a "no travel" ban.

Very Interesting questions.
More questions, and this time some_good_ questions.

While some have little interest in getting in the middle of the Obama
birth issue, Paul Hollrah over at FSM did so yesterday and believes the
issue can be resolved by Obama answering one simple question:

*_What passport did he use when he was shuttling between
New York , Jakarta , and Karachi ?

So how did a young man who arrived in New York in early June
1981, without the price of a hotel room in his pocket, suddenly come
up with the price of a round-the-world trip just a month later?

*And once he was on a plane, shuttling between New York , Jakarta ,
and Karachi , what passport was he offering when he passed through Customs
and Immigration?

*The American people not only deserve to have answers to these
questions, they must have answers.

It makes the debate over Obama's citizenship a rather short and
simple one.
*Q: Did he travel to Pakistan in 1981, at age 20?
A : Yes, by his own admission.

*Q: What passport did he travel under?
A: There are only three possibilities.
1) He traveled with a U.S. Passport,
2) He traveled with a British passport, or
3) He traveled with an Indonesian passport.

Q: Is it possible that Obama traveled with a U.S. Passport in 1981?
A: No. It is not possible. Pakistan was on the U.S. State Department's
"no travel" list in 1981.

Conclusion:
When Obama went to Pakistan in 1981 he was traveling either with a
British passport or an Indonesian passport.

If he were traveling with a British passport that would provide proof
that he was born in Kenya on August 4, 1961, not in Hawaii as he
claims. And if he were traveling with an Indonesian passport, that would
tend
to prove that he relinquished whatever previous citizenship he held,
British or American, prior to being adopted by his Indonesian
step-father in 1967.


No, it wouldn't. A Passport does not imply citizenship in the issuing
country. Britain often issues "Passports of Convenience" and other countries
will issue passports to descendents of their citizens through several
generations back (Israel and Ireland are two examples). Further, it is
possible to "buy" a passport of another country (actually by establishing
residence and making a substantial "investment" in the country). Costa Rica
and Belize are examples.

I have two passports: one from the U.S. and one from another country.
Actually I have a third - a fake passport from British Honduras and anyone
can get one allegedly from Rhodesia, along with supporting documents such as
a driver's license, library card, and other bits of paper.

They can't.

On a second date with a lovely woman, I was sitting in her living room while
she stretched a few more muskrat skins or whatever women do when they say
"I'll be ready in just a minute," when I heard her screech: "That goddamn
Bush should learn some history!" (evidently referring to something she heard
on the TV news program).

I replied: "Uh, he has a degree from Yale. In history."

"That's a GODDAMN LIE!" was her retort.

[tappity-tap-tap on her computer]

"Ah, here it is," I said, pointing to the screen. "He also has an MBA from
Harvard."

"THE ****IN' REPUBLICANS HAVE TAKEN OVER THE INTERNET!!!" was her reasoned
response as a muskrat skin hit the floor.

Thinking quickly, I concocted a complicated, but believable, excuse for
leaving. Something along the lines of: "I have to go."

I learned three things:
* Google is not necessarily your friend,
* BDS is incurable and potentially fatal, and
* Don't date a manic-depressive.

I only hope a cure is found for BDS. It's for the muskrats.

Personally, I would like to thank you for that.

All the whining, teary eyed children that are still in therapy over
the Bush years would do us all a favor by jumping off the nearest

Whatever the truth of the matter, the American people need to know how he
managed to become a "natural born" American citizen between 1981 and
2008..

Given the destructive nature of his plans for America, as illustrated by
his speech before Congress
and the disastrous spending plan he has presented to Congress, the sooner
we learn the truth of all this, the better.


It's very obvious to me this ASS knows exactly what he's doing to bring the
US to it's knees and promote his big government socialist agenda. 1
trillion in deficits soon to go to 2 trillion by the end of the year. And
he wants to raise taxes and push through a Cap and Tax global warming
bull**** bill. And on top of that National Health Care. What the **** is
this idiot thinking? Guess money does grow on trees. We are in deep ****!!!
