Birthers, they never give up.

And some more "news" I'm surprised hasn't been posted here yet...the 75,000 word rambling email that Obama sent to all of this supporters. What? You haven't heard? It was originally reported by The Onion and immediately picked up by FOX Noise, who immediately confirmed it to be fact and ran with the story.

Some people will believe anything. I think the mods should move all the birther posts over the the conspiracy theory thread.

oh now JK...............

why, is it only fun to poke at Bush and Reagan?

not that they're not fun to poke at.......but, why so defensive over Obama?
He's fun to poke at too, you know.

but, as a serious question, (if you can or will reply):

What, if Obama were found ineligible? Would you be for his removal?
And, if not, why not?

just wonderin'............

I'm not exactly sure which post you're referring too, but joking and poking fun is one thing, believing the jokes are based on fact is something different entirely.

"Senator Bob Corker said on CNBC on Oct. 22 that “there is no one, not one person, in Washington who

That's an out and out lie and has been fact-checked and got a "pants on fire".

CBO says it will save money.

that's the whole point, of jokin and pokin (however you wish to interpret that.....hahaaha).
It doesn't matter if it's true, or believed....it's just fun.

but, I would be interested, in your response to the queries posed (in red). Just as a hypothetical.

We are all aware that Obama inherited a huge pile of problems. This is a parody of his state of the union address. Read it for entertainment value only. If you disagree, write to the authors.

First let me say that I thought Obama gave a great speech.

This is my favorite part of the parody:
Honestly, I’m [pleased] those Republicans dominated the elections in November and took some of this heat off of my back. I can’t wait to see their child-like idealism evaporate when they see all the crazy predicaments they’re up against. A few months after November, the economy will be in the process of being flushed down the toilet and then those so-called conservatives will be faced with a choice: stick to their campaign promises or sell out their base and start spending like crazy. I’m willing to bet the keys to the White House that they open up the purse strings and go on a spending spree that would make Paris Hilton look like a financial adviser who tells people to hide their cash under a mattress. They have no idea how hard this job really is, and neither do you people!

So, which speech would you guess had the most lies? The President's SOTU or the GOP response?

SOTU No lies

GOP response, full of lies and half-truths

jk, anyone with half a brain [or more] can easily see that circumstance is dictating actions out of D.C. If Mc Cain were in [shudder], he wouldn't have room to dance either.
Why do y'all think that I don't offer any political endorsements? I'm fast and free with condemnation. :D As you pointed out in the other thread, the financial institutions got us into this mess. I've tried to show that the financial powers did what they did because they didn't have a choice either.

jk, your favorite part of the parody was that the Reps will have to throw out their campaign promises and spend like crazy.
I posted that circumstances are dictating action regardless of who is in control. We are in agreement.

Obummer can't seem to find the exit door from Iraq or Afghanistan. He's looking for the enter door for Pakistan and Iran. GITMO trials seem to be of national strategic importance. Evidently, WE can afford to refurbish mosques even though we can't afford to pay teachers;

The Battle of Blair Mountain was the largest open class war in United States history and was the second largest overall armed insurrection next to the American Civil War. For five days in late August and early September 1921, in Logan County, West Virginia, between 10,000 and 15,000 coal miners confronted an army of police and strikebreakers backed by coal operators in an effort to unionize the southwestern West Virginia coalfields. Their struggle ended only after approximately one million rounds were fired, and the United States Army intervened by presidential order.

Give it time. I started the "coup de etat" thread much too early. Not sure if a general strike is even needed. The foreclosures will crash the banks. http://www.publicnewsservice.org/index. ... le/18864-1
When the banks crash, GOV will be close behind. BUT, be careful what you wish for.
