33. Eggplant:

Charles asked:

“Say does anyone know how to get ahold of Obama’s original long form birth certificate? ”

Your whipping a dead horse. I don’t like Obama but the birth certificate angle won’t make him go away. It’s a waste of time.
……
You may be right but its worth knowing what people are saying. Here is Gov (commerce secretary elect)Bill Richardson
saying in Spanish that Obama is an “immigrant.” (So he understands
understands “immigrant” issues.)The context suggests that by
“immigrant” bill richardson may mean “illegal immigrant”

The thing has become a joke in washington. Joe Biden Joked at the Gridiron Dinner in March 09.

After mentioning one of the Republican speakers for the evening, Arnold Schwarzenegger,
was born in Austria and that one of the Democratic speakers, Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm,
was born in Canada, Biden chortled: “Folks, this is going to be Lou Dobbs’ worst nightmare. ”

Here in plain English is the Kenyan Ambassador suggesting that Obama is born in Kenya.

Then of course there is a video of Obama’s grandmother saying that Obama is born in in her village in Kenya

There is a case to be made that Obama mother didn’t mean Obama was born in her town but rather that he is a “son of this village”.

An argument for baraks people might be that of course the Kenyans would have an interest in claiming that obama was a
“son of the soil” both as a matter of pride and as a matter of
bucks coming their way. However, if Obama was not born in Kenya — then why wouldn’t Obama release his original long form birth certificate. Why has he had a highly paid legal team set up to squash the lawsuits on the matter.

Obama’s own flacks deny that obama was born in Kenya but do acknowledge that he had a dual citizenship up until 1982

From obama’s own site factcheck.org by way of fightthesmears on his dual citizenship at birth

“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was
a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire.
As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose
citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948.
That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.

Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn
an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically
expired on Aug. 4,1982.”

Justice Roberts agreed to read the documenation on the matter.

The National Review thinks that Roberts will come up high on democratic enemies list because he was appointed by bush and because he’s a strict constructionalist. But I think its because he accepted the obama birth documentation.
