    Yeah, McCain didn't have a choice being born at a base in Panama.

    Just sayin...

    This is silly. Plenty of Presidents have lived abroad. No family member has questioned Obama's birth - unless you believe the conspiracy theorist right-wing blogs, which we know make up stuff (as do left-wing conspiracy theorist sites).

    Nonsense. It hasn't gotten the attention of the Supreme Court - you do realize they have to look at something to deny it, right? Any frivolous case can be appealed to the Supreme Court only to be rejected.

    The only reason it has any attention is a bunch of crazy right-wing conspiracy theorists keep talking about it, and people like you then propagate it. It gets attention because it's gotten attention. It's like Paris Hilton being famous for being famous.

    Did Barack Obama choose to move to Indonesia? :confused:

    Major, I don't like calling people out. You wouldn't be having this discussion if you would have read half the thread to understand why some might doubt him being a natural born citizen. If you would have read my post, you would have also seen that I don't doubt him being a natural born citizen. Im not propagating anything. Take the time and read arguments before you decided to conform your opinion with the main stream.

    Yeah that is powerful. Too bad I hadn't seen that until December of 2008. Why didn't the Obama people do this way back when?

    This concern has been out there for probably about a year while you try and make it sound like something that has been trotted out post-election to deny Obama the White House. Now who looks desperate?

    Just seems simple enough that the Obama camp could have slam-dunked this "issue" a long time ago. It's not like the don't address other criticisms that the opponents brought up. Why dodge this one?

    I never said that he did. I was merely responding to the comment about McCain...and I really did so tongue in cheek, because that is how I took the post I responded to.

    Very seldom will you find a one word post from me meant to be taken seriously. It happens, but I am usually much more verbose than that.

    Uh, it was known as soon as the wingers started using the grandmother offense (I think this came out in October?). Perhaps you need to read a wider variety of sources? Or perhaps you shouldn't be so passive and occasionally question what your emails say.

    it was slam dunked, just because you nuts are still fighting doesn't mean its over. the score is 120-75 with 30 secs to go in the fourth quarter and the nuts are using all their time outs.

    Apparently, Bill Richardson thinks Obama is an immigrant.
