There's currently a lawsuit in Hawaii for the release of his Birth Certificate, that' supposed to have been heard yesterday. Haven't seen anything about it yet, but it is only 7:30 there.

Snopes.com has a piece on this that includes a scanned copy of the certificate. What's the law suit about, whether it's authentic or not?

Instead he's got that obvious forgery on his web site. Last I heard, Microsoft Sans Serif fonts weren't available on typewriters in 1961.
You misunderstand the case filed. Obama was born in America. This is not disputed. It can't be. Even the RNC while researching rush whatshisnames allegation this summer, discovered the birth announcement in the local paper. This topic has been settled and all allegations in tis suit withdrawn.

The real issue is his mother marrying an Indonesian when Obama was very young, who in turn adopted Obama. Obama became an Indonesian citizen and traveled on an Indonesian passport.

The court case is going nowhere. Even the RNC will tell you that. The law on this topic is very clear. Obama will be cleared to become President. Get used to the fact that Republicans are toast. Both in the White House and Congress. This is just Chuckles's last gasp at holding onto his reality. He really ought to turn off conservative talk radio and look around America these days. Unemployment is up again, the market is down again... just what did you conservatives think was going to happen this election cycle??

Apparently another Republican Congresswoman had her RNC funds withdrawn yesterday. It appears Democrats will come close to gaining 50 Republican seats in the House. If Stevens is convicted, they will have a fillibuster proof Senate as well. If he isn't, they will still have a slim shot at it, as he's behind in recent polls.

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell's endorsement of Obama was just one of the nails in the upcoming McCain defeat this week. "Reagan Democrats" were once the swing voters who decided presidential elections. In 2008, it will be the "Obama Republicans." New polls show Obama leading John McCain by eight points today partly because of his significantly higher support among Republicans than was enjoyed by either Gore or Kerry.

I'd suggest you guys jump on the "Obama Republicans" bandwagon as Chuckles and Sailawy21's 'reality' is sooo over.

The great thing about people that gloat, is that what goes around comes around.

Just out of curiosity, is there anyone reading this thread who cannot lay their hands on the original copy of their birth certificate? Not a copy, but the original. My parents kept mine in a safe place, as it was needed from time to time throughout my life, and still is 44 years later. Didn't BHO's mother keep his?

I can but it doesn't have my name on it, nor is there any legal paperwork showing I (or my parents when I was a minor) changed my name.
My mom got a xerox copy of my BC, erased the last name, wrote in my step dad's and enrolled me in school. Because I used that name all through school the US Marines told me when I enlisted to use that name as a AKA. I did.
Finally, 5 years ago the State Department excepted my non-fraudulent use of the name (and 22 years of military service with a TS clearance) as an acceptable identification and issued me a passport in my 'changed' name.

That's one of the reasons this story line interest me so much.

Oh, and Ricky, wrong again, the allegations have not been dismissed, the suit has not been withdrawn, and I'm not republican.

Hey, at least we know the RNC spent $150,000 on clothes for Palin. Now THAT'S sticking to the issues.

On a similar note, Obama's Medicare ads have been factchecked as false. Yet, it's still McCain that is the only one accused of running negative ads.

Gloat? Ha..Ha... now that's funny coming from you.

I will gloat, but it will be on Nov 5.

Incidently, now that Alan Greenspan has officially reversed himself and agrees with my view, don't you personally feel it's time to acknowlege it and hang up your kool-aide jug?
