Obama: You're wasting your time!
The President of the USA has released his 'long form' birth certificate in a final attempt to prove to hardline sceptics that he is indeed a natural born US citizen and therefore eligible to be President of the Union.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-13212230
Personally I think he's wasting his time. The worst thing you can do to a conspiracy theorist is show them the proof that they're wrong. The proof simply becomes further evidence of a cover-up and reinforces the theory.

Re: Obama: You're wasting your time!
As you said - from the bottom of that article
Quote:
Joseph Farah, chief executive of birther-oriented website WorldNetDaily.com, said on the site the document "raises as many questions as it answers".
"It is important to remember there are still dozens of other questions concerning this question of eligibility that need to be resolved to assure what has become a very sceptical public concerning Barack Obama's parentage, his adoption, his citizenship status throughout his life and why he continues to cultivate a culture of secrecy around his life," he said.
|
And then there is other Republicans, who have being going on about it for ages, are now saying "why is he wasting his time on this".

Why do you ask?
Is there something you know that we don't?

I think there was something similar about George W Bush - his father insisted he couldn't be his child, and wanted a DNA test done......

Re: Obama: You're wasting your time!
I think you'll find the only people who are saying he is a "Immigrant" are problerly the inbred deep south brigade who believe that all black should be in chains.

Re: Obama: You're wasting your time!
If only - unfortunately, Donald Trump and many others do not fit that stereotype.

Yeah well I think a DNA test on that thing on Trump's head is in order, just to find out what exactly it is if nothing else.

Re: Obama: You're wasting your time!
IMHO this is not news worthy at all.
Shows that newscasters etc don't have anything else of interest to talk about...

Re: Obama: You're wasting your time!
I agree,but you don't think there'd be shouts of "cover-up" were they not to report it?

Re: Obama: You're wasting your time!
No - Faux News would shout cover-up whether on not it was reported.

Re: Obama: You're wasting your time!
I doubt many Americans will give a dam now as he has got rid of OBL. So I reckon he get another 4 years in office.
