Mmhmm...so you are saying that in 1991 or before, he was masquerading as a native born Kenyan? Correct?
who knows? there's evidence to suggest he, or someone speaking for him, was making that suggestion. why is unclear, but an inquisitive media would certainly want the answers. you can be sure if he were a clean, articulate republican, this would be front page news in the Times & Post.
Your a birther and you believe Bill Ayers wrote Dreams!?!?!?!?!? That's even better. Not only are you a birther, but you were unable to get the joke about Ayers writing Obama's book. This is awesome. We've had a couple of great days here in the D&D, and we've learned a lot about what kind of savvy politico you are. Keep it up. The more we learn, the more fascinating you become. So long boring pseudo-intellectual guy who thought when people didn't laugh at his lame jokes they didn't get it, rather than they just weren't funny, and hello birther basso! I love it.
Very nice, Akbar. You have learned well enough to know that trouble awaits so you're hedging away. This feature article by the inquisitive Boston Globe from a full ****ing year earlier extensively discusses his background, as did the manuscript he was writing and shopping at the time. So once again, unfortunately your argument requires a time machine. Obama was masquerading as a Kenyan national through 1991, but used a time machine to go back in time and give an interview that said otherwise in February 1990. This was of course, all done in order to increase sales of a book, in which he claims not to be a Kenyan national. This theory is pure genius. CongLATURATIONS.
btw, Sammy, the article you linked does not say where he was born, only where his parents met and married: artful dodging: -- Obama's background is a melange of different cultures. His late father, who was black, was born in the small Kenyan village of Alego, studied at Harvard and Oxford and became a senior economist for the Kenyan government. His mother, who is white, is a Kansas-born anthropologist who now works as a developmental consultant in Indonesia. His parents met and married in Hawaii and divorced when Obama was 2. His father then returned to Kenya, and Obama was raised, at least initially, by his mother. "To a large extent I roamed around a lot as a kid," he said during an interview in a Harvard Square restaurant.
I don't know. But first you're going to have to come up with a new theory as to why it matters. The previous one is incoherent and involves time travel...so we need somethign new. Please go back to the birther chatroom and get it out to us before this PM. TIA Oh, ask and ye shall receive....so your theory is that Obama's parents met in Hawaii and were married - took a secret off the record trip back to his father's kenya, in order to have a "reverse anchor" baby - then snuck back into the country and that Obama told EVERYBODY about this secret-off-the-record trip back to Kenya, in the early 90's in order to make himself seem more marketable, while selling a book that says the opposite...the massive conspiracy to cover it up has jsut been uncovered from beyond the grave by the bloated corpse of Bloatbart. Fan-****ing-tastic.
Nobody but the people who came up with the missed facts did. I've already given a possible example of how it could come about, birther.
the globe article is not the birth certificate you're looking for. the writing is too clever- they certainly meant to imply as much, but if they'd wanted to say he was born in hawaii, why not just say so?
Can someone let me know why birther seems to be used (poorly) as an insult? If they believe that, then I doubt they have a problem with the label. If they don't it's similar to calling someone a racist slur used for a different race. I guess this came from the truther term, but I never saw that used as an insult. also in before vlaurelio says 'hi birther'
I've already said, that I don't consider it an insult no matter who uses it. It's hilarious that people are birthers. It's especially hilarious when people who pretend to be sophisticated are birthers.
I get it...so as long as it doesn't say he was not secretly born in Kenya, there are sufficient grounds to suspect he must have told them that he was secretly born in Kenya in order to sell a book about not being born in Kenya. Enlighten us, brother.
i have no idea about this and don't really care either way. My question is to the non-birthers. Can you give me a link to proof that Obama was born in the states?
Joe Ricketts is on line one for you..... he wants your help with "Plan X".... btw, tell him he can have his crappy Cubs hat back.
