If you’re an eternal optimist and thought that maybe, just maybe, this morning’s perfect storm of lunacy would result in the birther set going off quietly into the night, you were, well, sadly mistaken.
Reports Politico:
Phil Berg, who filed one of the original birther lawsuits, now believes that Obama was adopted by his Indonesian father and lost his U.S. citizenship:
“I think the issue is that he’s not any more natural born. I don’t care if he releases his birth certificate or whatever,” said Berg. “Let’s see his records coming back through immigration.”
Orly Taitz, once called ‘Queen of the birthers’ and who was responsible for a number of lawsuits, is verifying the document’s authenticity and now believes that the president is using a false social security number.
“In Obama’s Selective Service [document], his social security is listed as a Connecticut Social Security number,” said Taitz, who has tried to have forgeries introduced into court filings before.
Orly Taitz also insists that if the birth certificate were real, it would list Obama’s father as a “negro” instead of an “African.” And the world spins madly on…

The GOP is like the “Chicken Littles” always saying that the “Sky is Falling”, like the same ones that were the “Chicken Hawks” (“W” Wars), big talk no courage.
The United States, favors creativity wherever it can be found. We’re apostles of prosperity and defenders of the free exchange of ideas and when more people in more countries are free to rise, to invent, to communicate, to dissent, it’s not the doom of United States leadership, its the triumph of the American way.
Generations have worked hard and sacrificed much for the country to reach this point (individuals and our unions!), and with further hard work and sacrifice (along with our relentless self-doubt) the United States will rise again, we do not tire and we are coming back, no matter what Fox news and their GOP “Chicken Littles” lackies keep saying about our nation. Never Bet Against the United States!
Our current President travelled under a USA passport long before he was elected President, but I guess the quacky BIRTHERS, must believe that the USCIS – United States Passport was in on the lie, please, grow up, you are wrong! Remember when some contractors were busted during the “George W. Bush” administration for looking at our current President passport file (how quick you forget).

The Birthers just HATE and can’t debate!
Have any of the quacky BIRTHERS presented any credible proof that will standup in court? Answer: No
Have any of the quacky BIRTHERS won any Court Cases? Answer: No
They are just mainly backward, uneducated, white people who HATE our half African American President.
The majority of the voting public ask “where the proof”, show some proof BIRTHERS or the voting majority will continue to see you as dumb, stupid or racist, maybe all three. Can you blame them?
Still, I really hope one of these retreads and blowhards runs for president, not because they have a chance of winning but because I like to see the train wreck that they will cause.

I have no idea what business Orly Taitz has sticking her nose into America’s business. SHE CLEARLY WASN’T BORN HERE!!! To all birthers (except Orly Taitz), I suggest you write your birth state, requesting a copy of your birth certificate, and see what you get. MY parents mislaid my birth certificate (we moved a lot), so in 1970, the year I was married, I contacted the county of my birth to receive a “copy of my birth certificate.” I received a half-sheet on sepia, with the words “Live Birth Record” or “Record of Live Birth” (I can’t remember how it was stated), signed, dated and notarized. It cost me $3.00. My husband and I moved several times, and, upon his retirement, we moved to Tennessee in 2009. I needed my birth certificate so I could get my driver’s license. As I couldn’t find it right away, I AGAIN contacted Olmsted County in Minnesota, and was told I must apply to the state. I found the forms on line. The price was $16.00, but they said it would take 6 weeks. Needing to obtain my driver’s license within 30 days from the date we moved there, I requested that it be expedited (another $20.00) and shipped overnight (another $15.00). $51.00 later, I received from the state of Minnesota a “CERTIFICATE OF LIVE BIRTH” – JUST LIKE OBAMA’S (though the border may have been different)- signed, dated and notarized. So, to all birthers, just do a little research- send for your birth certificate, and see what you get.
As for the Social Security card, it is NOT automatically issued at birth (unless things have changed). My parents got us ours when we were in our teens and living in Illinois. It is highly probable that Obama didn’t obtain his until he was old enough to work. He may have waited until he was in college, out East, which may explain why he has a number assigned from that region. My husband applied for his when he was in college. Orly Taitz is NOT the expert she would like everyone to think she is.
As an added note, I would like to say that those who believe this birther nonsense are the SAME PEOPLE who would have looked at Barack Obama’s parents when they were a couple and self-righteously contended that Obama, Sr. was just with an American girl so that he could have a baby with her, IN THIS COUNTRY, so he could become a CITIZEN of THIS COUNTRY. I can tell you, from personal experience, that this is not automatic, and the foregner is often told to return to his country. My highly educated guess is that, whether Barack Obama knows it or not, this is probably a big part of why his father left the USA. So Birthers, you can’t have it both ways. People with intelligence do their research. Order a copy of your “birth certificate” TODAY!!
