Because god knows...

... The rich are really hurting - and they just can't take a Tax Hike to help preserve the society that that helped make them rich in the first place.

But poor and middle class folks should have to suffer lack of education, poor health, poverty and death so they can buy another Mercedes or another vacation home.

Our country is toast.

You'll never convince me!

...I have proof that Obama was born on Mars - and is leading a take over of health insurance in the US so we can all be injected with alien DNA.

I'm sorry, but the people who believe this birther crap are the very same people we built mental institutions to house.

@ Londonlad

Because it's none of your business that's why. Maybe you should be forced to produce your birth certificate every time you pay a toll, or renew your driver's license. Or every time some jackass like Oh Really Taints asks you for one.

Yes - I'm sure your buddy George Bush and his pal Dick Cheney allowed a foreign national to take over the government, and I'm sure congress, the state dept., the FBI, CIA, and NSA were all in on it too and have been planning it since the 60's. Hence the fake birth announcement in the Hawaiian papers too.

Look pal, get a life - Obama could have been born in in the Kremlin - it does not change the fact that Obama's mother was in fact a US citizen making him a natural born citizen himself.

To all those asking where the "long form" is...

... I ask you what do you think it's going to show? That Obama's father was Darth Vader?????

Again - maybe the man has already proved beyond a reasonable doubt that he is a natural born American citizen.

Along the lines of why doesn't he just produce it - I think we should force every republican president of the past 50 years to produce their "long forms" as well... after all - I'm not sure Reagan was born here... maybe his entire presidency was invalid!?!!???

Also - I'm not sure Reagan is really dead - and his re-animated corpse might be controlling the entire republican movement... I want to see his death certificate, after all funerals can be faked. Maybe Ronnie's body was just a CPR dummy.

@ Londonlad

Pal - my in laws are from the UK and my wife (a "naturalized" citizen of the US) was born there and I have never heard any of them use the goofy over the top slang you are using... did you learn to speak by watching Clockwork Orange over and over as a baby?

And it's a not a silly question since his birth certificate is irrelevant any way. He is a citizen and is eligible to be president. Why should he produce his birth certificate because a bunch of morons are asking for it. There is no law that says he has to. Again - the burden of proof is on the accuser in this country, not the accused.

Produce real proof Obama is not really a natural born citizen or STFU.

@ orbitboy

Yes... I forgot about that - or has a funny sounding name - Like Oh Really Taints.

Because after all - Obama is a scary "other" with brown skin. And if we don't invalidate his presidency - the brown people will take over the country and Make us all into Socialist cogs.

OMG!!!!!!!

The STUPID IT HURTS!!!!!!!! MAKE IT STOP!!!!!! PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE THESE PEOPLE STFU!!!!!!!

@ something stinks

????? I totally understand if you have issues with Obama's policies - I'm not totally thrilled with him either - but this Birther crap HAS to be called out for the lunacy and racist BS it really is. If Obama was white, nobody would be questioning his legitimacy as president by claiming he was born in Denmark or something.

The man is president, he's not going to be kicked out of office because a few truly crazy people think he's from Kenya.

@ Hornet-moron

Well... The plan to privatize social security was not supported by 71% of the public as the plan to reform the crumbling health care "system" is.

The people ranting and raving at these meetings are not reflective of the majority of public opinion... get it? That's not so hard to understand is it?

And BTW... If I remember correctly, protesters and non-bush supporters were forcibly removed from Bush's Potemkin "town-halls". I don't see that happening to these twits.

Wednesday, August 5, 2009 08:58 AM

@ HornetDriver

And??? 49% is still a majority... and BTW... What are your ideas for fixing health care? I have heard nothing from the right wing / republicans other than the same old "free market" BS we have been hearing since Ronnie Raygunz. The same crap that got us to where we are now. Come up with a new idea, then you can rant and rave all you want.

Something Stinks is....

HILARIOUS! Priceless entertainment.

If you really believe the BS you are spouting - then you really need to check into a facility somewhere.

Otherwise you must be kidding.

Idiocracy

Just watch the movie Idiocracy... That's where we're headed... and fast.

That movie is almost a documentary about the Bush administration and Fox News.

She just proved my point RE. Idiocracy... Next she'll be telling us to use Brawndo... It's got what plants crave.

Articles like this one...

... Insult my intelligence and make me want to dump my subscription.

The girl in the ad does not look like an eight year old. My wife still looks like she's in her teens and she's in her 30's... does that make me a pedophile because I'm attracted to her?

The actual age is what matters... not what age YOU think she looks. The actress in question is an adult - case closed.
