You know, a little objective thought on the matter would be helpful.
The Democrats KNEW that they were likely to win this time around (Doesn’t matter who won the GOP nomination, they were likely screwed). They had, at least, three candidates that COULD have carried the election. Generally speaking, Sen. Clinton would have easily carried the nomination and probably the White House (What a hellish thought!). Does ANY rational human being think that the CLINTONS would have missed something as obvious as Obama being ineligible? Does any rational person think that the Democrats would have risked the election if there was some serious questions about his birth location or status as a citizen?
It seems far more likely that Obama is a citizen and is more than happy to let his enemies run around chasing red herrings. How many bolgs have been spinning their wheels with this story? How many people have been writing their *insert political rep here* about this stuff (which as far as I can tell, no one in Washington is taking seriously at all)? How much time and effort have gone into this, rather than into building a consensus among the GOP, rather than figuring out how the GOP will stand against the new ALL LIBERAL government?
It’s straight out of traditional political playbooks and you all are getting played.
Focus on real issues and you might get somewhere… focus on this stuff and you’ll be lumped in with the tinfoil hat people by the general public. Once you’re in that group, its easy to dismiss everything you say. Think about it. Let’s say that Obama releases absolute confirmation that he IS a natural-born citizen, let’s further say that he does so in a mocking and derisive fashion, playing the “I want to represent you all… including those who don’t think I am eligible to vote” game.
Then, a year down the road, some other question comes up, perhaps one that has some serious merit, rather than providing the documentation… what happens when Obama says “Well, that must be hidden away in the same place as my Birth Certificate!” (insert laugh line). Diffused, disabled and anyone screaming about that… will get lumped in easily with those screeching now…
Don’t believe me? Look at the past 8 years. Those that screamed about complete bullshit were more easily sidelines by people here and elsewhere because they’d already shown that they had no rational capability when it came to discussing their political enemies.
