Subject: Obama
and the birthers
Hey Bart,
I am with you, you never once bashed Obama--unless in America today it
is abusing someone to ask them to come to work.
I always thought he was a shill presented by his bosses, but had to
vote for him as I had nowhere to turn.
So I hoped--so much for 'hope'.
I never doubted his birth status. After all, Cheney was a
'resident of Wyoming'.
However, among the braindead of the land the question of his birth is a
MAJOR issue.
Here's a theory about 'the birth' from my good friend Michael Rivero,
over at the definitely not Librul
(and NOT afraid of that minuscule piece of sand in the Middle East) whatreallyhappened.com,
proposes that might explain the event:
'I am going to toss out a theory here; a theory that explains why even
though Obama was born here in Hawaii
why there has been obfuscation over the birth certificate. The theory
involves a minor scandal Obama needed hidden,
yet was too trivial to be of use to either Hillary Clinton or John
McCain during the 2008 campaign.
The theory is that the true original birth certificate for Barack Obama
has a different name for the father
than Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. The theory is that the original birth
certificate lists one Frank Marshall Davis
as the father and that the young
Obama was born out of wedlock (a common enough occurrence during the
60s).
If true, this connects all the facts together in a reasonable manner.
Obama grew up pretending that the man married to his mother was his
biological father, and took the Obama
name into politics. The revelation that mom had had an affair and that
Obama was illegitimate is an embarrassment,
and in a tightly contested election race a liability. But given that
Davis was from Chicago, there is no question
that Obama, in this scenario, is still a naturally born US citizen.
McCain and Hillary could not have used the
scandal without making Obama look like a victim of dirty politics.
After all, Obama can hardly be blamed for
the circumstances of his conception. But his deception is intentional
on Obama's part and reason enough for
Kagen to block the birther lawsuits
to keep the original certificate hidden.
This scenario also explains the statement Obama made in the video about how
his father served in WW2,
because while Obama Sr. and later Soetero were too young to serve in
WW2, the far older Frank Marshall Davis
did in fact serve in WW2.
This seems to make the most sense to me.
Now, we may have a lot of reasons not to like Obama,
but his being a "love child" from the 60s shouldn't be one of them.'
