Now if we can just verify when and where our President was born.
ReplyDeleteJan 27 2011, it's just another day for Mel.
ReplyDeleteThe new governor says definitely it was Hawaii
ReplyDeleteHow hard is it to produce your birth certificate?
ReplyDeleteA much-overlooked comment by Barack Obama is getting a closer examination now that Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie has come up short in his plan to take care of a pressing election 2012 concern for the Democrats by producing Obama's birth certificate from the state's archives.
The comment, by Obama himself at a 2009 international meeting, suggested he was born seven months earlier than when his official story has claimed all along.
Freudian slip, misstatement or the truth leaking out?
It was in April 19, 2009, at a press conference Obama gave at the Port of Spain in Trinidad and Tobago, Obama responded to an hour-long diatribe that had been delivered by Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega at the meeting the day before, and Obama suggested he was born in January 1961, three months before the Bay of Pigs invasion.
Specifically, Obama rejected Ortega's attack on the United States for the attempted Bay of Pigs invasion during the Kennedy administration by explaining: "I'm grateful President Ortega did not blame me for things that happened when I was three months old."
Read more: Questions raised over Obama birth date
Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie said in an interview that a long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate for Barack Obama may not exist within the vital records maintained by the Hawaii Department of Health.
ReplyDeleteAbercrombie told the Honolulu Star Advertiser he was searching within the Hawaii Department of Health to find definitive vital records that would prove Obama was born in Hawaii, because the continuing eligibility controversy could hurt the president's chances of re-election in 2012.
Abercrombie acknowledged the birth certificate issue will have "political implications" for the next presidential election "that we simply cannot have." It has also bee reported that in 1961, Obama's grandparents, Stanley and Madelyn Dunham, could have made an in-person report of a Hawaii birth even if the infant Barack Obama Jr. had been foreign-born.
White poeple still mad that we have a black prez..get over it red-necks!!
ReplyDeletePeople will lie
ReplyDeleteThe governor says he knew Obama'a parents and he was there when Obama was born.
I was not a birther before the controversy got so big, but now I am 98% there, not quite there but close enough to be one.
ReplyDeleteHere is why:
The original posting of the live birth certificate was by COLB in June of 08' and then again by Fact Check.org the following August. The Hawaii Dept. of Health has refused to authenticate these two posts. The American grandparents by law can post or have published any grandchildren births in Hawaii, no matter the actual location the child is born. Mom left Hawaii three weeks after the birth to attend the U of Washington in Seattle. She did not return until June of 62' when Mr. Obama's dad left for Harvard in 1962.
Tim Adams, the former senior elections clerk for Honolulu in 2008 has been reported as saying that no long-form birth certificate exists. This is the form that has the footprint of the infant and the signatures of the delivering doctors and is always prepared by the hospital that delivered the child.
Neither Queens Medical Center, or the Kapiolani Medical Center have any such records in their archives, nor any record of any kind as to POTUS being born there.
Now perhaps he was born at home with a midwife, and someone forgot to get his foot prints and take care of the paperwork...there is an answer and it does not look good for Mr. Obama's 2012 re-election chances with this issue unresolved, and our good Guv in Hawaii says...there may not be a birth certificate.
All we know about this guy is what Bill Ayres wrote as his ghost writer for the two books about his father and his life.
Hawaii digitized ALL their "Long Forms", they did not save them.
ReplyDeleteThis has been known, by those that cared, for quite a while, now.
Mr Obama also said, Deuce, that there were 57 States in the Union.
He is not a font of factual knowledge, nor a reliable source of reportage on historic realities.
The fact that Neil Abercrombie did not understand how records were maintained, in Hawaii, prior to his ascendancy to the Governorship pretty much SOP for politicos.
ReplyDeleteThat he made his goal of producing the Long Form public, before discovering that they were unobtainable, a sign of a novice.
Again, I just don't want to believe that our government is so nonchalant about something so serious.
ReplyDeleteWhy, if this is truly the case, that it has gone on for this long.
There are no records, save for the bytes on the main frame.
ReplyDeleteThat's how it's done, in Hawaii.
Cutting edge of the technological revolution, those Hawaiians.
Brought efficiencies to record keeping, they did. Back in the 70's.
You need a record, they print it.
I remain very suspicious. It is too easy to put an end to speculation and they do not.
ReplyDeleteHave some early Valentine's Day candy, Melody. I love a woman with chocolate on her breath.
ReplyDeleteHow you "white poeple" today, still mad?
ReplyDeletenice clean post T.
ReplyDeleteDo you really think that if BHO was not a US citizen that he could get away with being president for two years?
ReplyDeleteyes.
ReplyDeleteIt may not have been in the 70's, but the law that allowed the destruction of the records allowed for the Governor to "save" documents he felt needed saving. Mr Obama's birth certificate did not warrant the Governors attention, what ever the date of electronic transfer was.
ReplyDeleteI do recall reading that Hawaii was being praised for the digitalization of the records, saving the taxpayers huge amounts of taxpayer money.
Lauded for being on the "cutting edge", they were.
Paper does not store cheaply, in the humid conditions that prevail, in that Polynesian paradise.
It doesn't make the GOP look very resourceful is they can't produce simple evidence on a man they really didn't want in office in the first place.
ReplyDeleteMel, there's no evidence, and Obama is milking it, like judo, to discredit his own detractors.
ReplyDeleteJohn Roberts swore him in.
ReplyDeleteWho you gonna call?
Well, you just crushed my american dream. I must go shopping now.
ReplyDeleteRight after I shovel the 18 inches of snow we got last night.
And T? You would also love a woman with…...
ReplyDeleteIt plays directly to the prejudice card, that there even is a "Birther" movement.
ReplyDeleteAs Anon exemplifies, for us.
Hawaiian State officials have testified to the veracity of the electronic record.
They will continue to do so.
The records available meet the legal standard, set by the State of Hawaii.
Full Faith and Credit Clause
used to refer to Article IV, Section 1 of the United States Constitution, addresses the duties that states within the United States have to respect the "public acts, records, and judicial proceedings" of other states
That ends the debate, really.
Now if someone were to follow bob's lead on "Natural Born", there may be a way to go.
ReplyDeleteBut I think that if there really was, that is where the posse would be heading, not following the false leads of disappearing documents.
T, I follow your lead with the name personalization.
ReplyDeleteWhy is Hawaii even on of the States of the United States of America?
ReplyDeleteIt is not even in the Americas.
Mexico, Costa Rica and Canada are all more American than Hawaii.
I had a dream last night that I was in a public restroom. There weren't any doors on any of the stalls. I was trying to go to the bathroom and kept yelling for someone to shut the main door. No one would. The crowds kept pouring in to watch me go. I kept yelling to my daughter to please some shut the door. She wouldn't.
ReplyDeleteI woke up in a very disturbing way…At 5:30.
Reuters -
ReplyDeleteSUEZ, Egypt Jan 27 (Reuters) - Egyptians torched a police post in the eastern city of Suez early on Thursday morning over the killing of protesters in anti-government demonstrations earlier in the week, a witness said.
Is Egypt stumbling towards democracy or anarchy?
That democracy movement we started, in the Islamic Arc, full of unintended consequences, aye.
Well worthy of the trillion dollar investment we've made in it.
ReplyDeleteI am sure some one will tell us that.
Good thing, though, that Charlie Cji-cap was able to loan US the money for the effort.
ReplyDeleteBetter that we borrow from the Chinese rather than just create more dollars.
ReplyDeleteWait, we're doing that, too.
The Federal Reserve, acknowledging a slow recovery and stubbornly high unemployment, decided Wednesday to proceed with its plans to buy as much as $600 billion in long-term Treasury bonds as it awaits a stronger pickup in growth.
The decision was unanimous, marking the first meeting of the policy-making Federal Open Market Committee without a dissenting vote since December 2009.

I'll go a little slower, maybe I wrote that under the influence of a third cup of coffee:
The spinoff benefits to the American economy due to the technological boost from the space race to the moon is hard to calculate, but it is probably every bit as dramatic as the heisted gold and silver from the Americas to Colonial Spain. Any commercial use of the technology by US companies for domestic use or US exports ends up as taxable ordinary income up and down the food chain. I would wager that the government drew back 10x the invested amount in NASA in tax revenue.
I don't have to explain the Chinese penchant for ripping off technology and intellectual property do I?
One thing BHO had right in his speech was that we didn't know some things we needed to know to get to the moon when we made that commitment.
ReplyDelete(I think he said that)
My highschool buddy who became a rocket scientist at Lockheed related that fact at the time and how they gamed the system to get to the goal.
...making plans based on things that had yet to be figured out.
ReplyDeleteIf the 'spin-off' is copyrighted/patented then the Corporation would have ripped it off as well. I don't have any recollection of the proprietary information being formally given to a particular corporation but rather the knowledge gained was in public realm. I certainly could be wrong here but I am unaware of any info at the time of sputnik being patented and transferred to US corporation only.
ReplyDeleteI also am finding it hard to view Corporations being particularly nationalistic. They trade on various countries exchanges but they don't seem too patriotic. They pursue profit and are largely couldn't give a hoot about any particular nation. Chinese companies, on the other hand, do have strong nationalistic ties. They essentially are government entities.
The transfer of CRITICAL ICBM technology from one of Clinton's crony capitalists to China is well known and documented.

"the knowledge gained was in public realm."
ReplyDeleteThe ICBM knowledge was a National Security Secret.
...until it was sold to the Chi-Coms.
Doug, I worked with a group of communications engineers involving Hughes and Raytheon on a small technical communications problem.
ReplyDeleteMy expertise was in over-the-horizon radar systems so I had a fair knowledge on very stable oscillators and ultra sensitive receivers.
On one particular problem, NASA scientists figured there were ten possible ways that could lead to a possible solution to the problem. NASA funded all ten, just in case.
I think that was Hughes that helped the Chinese.

ReplyDelete"Obama v. Hoover
ReplyDeleteHere's a fun, if frightening, one today from David Rosenberg. The chief economist at Gluskin Sheff + Associates notes striking similarities in comments by President Barack Obama and Herbert Hoover, the U.S. president who was king of the Great Depression and who even had a city named after him: Hooverville.
A colleague collected the comments and sent them to Mr. Rosenberg, who says "it blew me away."
Obama, State of the Union, Tuesday:
"Two years after the worst recession most of us have ever known, the stock market has come roaring back. Corporate profits are up. The economy is growing again."
Hoover, to U.S. Chamber of Commerce, May, 1930:
“While the crash only took place six months ago, I am convinced we have now passed the worst and with continued unity of effort we shall rapidly recover.”
Obama, State of the Union:
“Thanks to the tax cuts we passed, Americans’ paychecks are a little bigger today. Every business can write off the full cost of the new investments they make this year. These steps, taken by Democrats and Republicans, will grow the economy and add to the more than one million private sector jobs created last year.”
Hoover, campaign speech, October, 1932:
“It can be demonstrated that the tide has turned and that the gigantic forces of depression are today in retreat. Our measures and policies have demonstrated their effectiveness. They have preserved the American people from certain chaos. They have preserved a final fortress of stability in the world.”
Obama, State of the Union:
“But now that the worst of the recession is over...”
Hoover, to a delegation looking for a public works project, June, 1930:
“Gentlemen, you have come 60 days too late. The depression is over.”
Obama, State of the Union:
“The steps we’ve taken over the last two years may have broken the back of this recession…”
Hoover, State of the Union, December, 1932:
“The unprecedented emergency measures enacted and policies adopted undoubtedly saved the country from economic disaster…”
Hoovervilles, of course, were the names of the shantytowns that sprang up during the Depression. There was, in late 2009, some controversy over a tent city in Colorado Springs that, for a short while, sported a banner stating "Welcome To Obamaville: Colorado's Fastest-Growing Community."

Okay, so you remember me telling you about the Christmas party crashing that I was invited to six weeks ago. Did I mention what happened the moment I sat down before I had even had my first drink? Well, to bad.
ReplyDeleteMy friend and I were sitting at the table waiting patiently for the drink we had just ordered and along came friend #3.
As she is sat down next to my friend she accidentally knocked over a whole glass of water. My friend jumped up, and as I turned my head from talking to another friend, I saw the water rushing across the table, heading for my lap.
Not having a drink yet my reflexes were right on cue. I jumped up out of my chair somehow hooking my foot around the leg. I lost my balance, the chair hurled five feet in the air and came crashing down on the top of my foot.
I thought it was fractured. It was sore for days. The bruise faded and I went on with life as usual.
Until a couple of weeks ago when the top of my foot became very tender to touch and the bruise came back. But I could walk and I could stand on it. Then a few days ago things seemed a little worse. So, I had it x-rayed yesterday and today found out everything is fine. It's just a very bad bruise to the bone which will take a long time to heal.
I worried there for a minute. Even a slight fracture would have deterred me from coleslaw wrestling in Daytona. ( :

I ain't suggesting your content isn't good., however what if you added a headline to
possibly get folk's attention? I mean "January 27 in history" is a little boring. You ought to peek at Yahoo's front page
and note how they write article titles to get people to click.
