Can we get back to talking about Supreme Beings - meaning of course,
me.

It is all about me you know.


Well, maybe not. Heard an interesting factoid today. Until 1942, FDR and
all his make work programs, the unemployment rate never fell below 14%. And
Obama is proposing a new New Deal to fix employment problems. Plus while
losing 500k jobs the Government issued 155k H-1 work visas. Secede and ask
for foreign aid.


Well as Supreme Being I could solve all those problems instantly.

They are called Slave Labor Camps. :)

I hadn't noticed that Obama was appointing incompetent party hacks or
ideologues the way Bush did and does.

Anyone who thought Obama was "radical" wasn't paying attention. Obama is
a centrist who leans slightly left of center.

There will be plenty of "change" the next four years, beginning 20
January 2009.

I previously published a list of 10 changes I would like to see the
incoming administration make. I'm confident Obama will make all of them.

Meanwhile, I see that your boy, President "Call me a Total Failure" Bush
is still appointing right-wing numnutzies to federal jobs, and pushing
through rules and regulations to continue screwing with the environment
and worker safety. He's a regular piece of ****, right to the end, an
incompetent who has done his very best to ruin this country,

It's the way U.S. auto factories are operated. The disdain for workers who
haven't had some of the advantages you have had is palpable.


I would say that you don't know me very well. Which is understandable.

If I should know you by the sorts of statements you make about factory
workers, then your true self is crystal clear. "Kinda like lemmings with

I did say it was silly, but it's still a valid issue and it will be

what is and isnt' an American.

I'm telling you - it's going to become an issue.

Besides, it's all in Congress's hands anyway - they can fix this

Interesting - there is going to be a "scandal" during his first 100

Statute provides that those born on foreign soil to servicemen or
diplomats serving are "natural born -- which is what makes John McCain
"natural born."

That same statute the Nationality Act of 1940 (amended in 19652)
requires the U.S. Citizen to have resided in the U.S. for ten years,
five of which were after the age of 14.

Ann Dunham was only 18 when BHO was born.

Obama's father lived in the US less than a year.

Obama's biological father was a Kenyan citizen and Obama's mother a
U.S. citizen who was not old enough to register Obama's birth in
Hawaii as a "natural born" United States Citizen.

It's technical I know, and a little silly I readily admit, but...

More political hay has been made out of technical legal issues which
are totally silly - it's a politicians stock-in-trade.



Oh, not this crap again. The right-wing fruitcakes have been working the
"Obama is not a natural born citizen" crap for months. The Supremes
refused to cert such a case yesterday and will do the same with the Berg
case.

Get over it. Your boy and his brainless bimbo lost.

D'oh. I am referring to those still working for an employer who have

somewhere a bit more reliable than the crooked stock market. I
understand they can decide not to have any more of their funds put into
the 401k. The question was getting those funds out to reinvest them

That is the computer generated one. As I said, I have one of those from
the State of Washington. I also have a photo copy of my Birth
Certificate from the State of Washington too that was generated in
September of 1961. I want to see a photo copy of the birth certificate
issued in August of 1961 for The Obama.

Anyone can printout a piece of paper and put some stamps on it. But,
forging a document and embossing it with a 50 year old seal takes a real
professional.

If there is going to be a scandal, it isn't going to be that one.

http://www.miamiherald.com/news/poli...ry/804684.html

I did say it was silly, but it's still a valid issue and it will be
reviewed at some point - it has to be because it's at the very core of
what is and isnt' an American.

I'm telling you - it's going to become an issue.

Besides, it's all in Congress's hands anyway - they can fix this
quickly and easily. However, the "scandal" will come from trying to
make that "fix".

It's going to happen.

Ah - my friend it may not be a legitimate certificate - by law. For
the reasons stated.

That's what's going to be the issue - is that certificate a legal
document based, as it is, on a flawed law?

Again - I think it's silly and frankly, insulting to Obama and, this
may surprize you, I'm on the opposite side - this is much to do about
nothing - Congress can fix this immediately.

But that's the issue - can Congress make this go away.

And that's were the fun of discussing this is.

We have seen a computer generated piece of paper. What we want is a
photo copy of his birth certificate. I Was born just a couple of weeks
after The Obama in Washington State. I have both a computer generated
piece of paper and a photo copy of my birth certificate. They are not
one in the same.


Letr's not get side tracked here - that's not the issue. It is a
legitimate certificate of birth - as far as it goes.

The problem is that the circumstances of certification are extra legal
as I stated.

Let's not get all icky ballooky about the certificate itself - it's
good.

Interesting - there is going to be a "scandal" during his first 100

Statute provides that those born on foreign soil to servicemen or
diplomats serving are "natural born -- which is what makes John McCain
"natural born."
That same statute the Nationality Act of 1940 (amended in 19652)
requires the U.S. Citizen to have resided in the U.S. for ten years,
five of which were after the age of 14.
Ann Dunham was only 18 when BHO was born.

Obama's father lived in the US less than a year.

Obama's biological father was a Kenyan citizen and Obama's mother a
U.S. citizen who was not old enough to register Obama's birth in
Hawaii as a "natural born" United States Citizen.
It's technical I know, and a little silly I readily admit, but...

More political hay has been made out of technical legal issues which
are totally silly - it's a politicians stock-in-trade.



Oh, not this crap again. The right-wing fruitcakes have been working
the "Obama is not a natural born citizen" crap for months. The
Supremes refused to cert such a case yesterday and will do the same
with the Berg case.

Get over it. Your boy and his brainless bimbo lost.


Does the rule of law mean anything? From where do the laws of the USA
come? I find it interesting that a lawyer, The Obama, is so ignorant of

Yup...the right-wing fruitcakes...like Bertie.

Don't you think you might be getting a little paranoid? Put the above
two links together, and most reasonable people would conclude Obama was
born in Hawaii.

Game over, Tom. Move on.

The Hawaii certificate is almost exactly the same as the one I got from
New Haven when I applied for a passport. Good enough is good enough is
good enough.

The Supremes are *not* going to cert any of these soreloserman cases.
Find another issue, like whether your party is really going to nominate
Sarah Palin in 2012.

You cannot, and are incapable of, discussing issues in a calm rational

statements. You can't keep up, so you resort to negativity.

Ask around Harry - I've often defended you in side conversations with
different participants, but sometimes when you post crap like this, it

You are nothing more than a slightly more literate slammer2. You are

Kos has participating bloggers from all over the political spectrum,
including the far, far left. It's what makes it interesting sometimes.
But the far lefties don't get the attention in the Democratic party that
the far righties get in the Republican party, because the Republican
party is mostly far righties these days. *White* far righties.

It isn't often one gets to see evolution in action. It is quite
pleasurable watching the Republican party being evolved out of existence.
