UK Conservative Blogger Walaa Idris decides to play birther

If Obama’s birther is a fake, then who should be punished and what’s their punishment?

Quote:
"When Donald Trump chased and pushed for a birth certificate to be made public, somehow one magically surfaced. Again the race card was tossed around here and there but this time folks have a paper document verifying Mr. President’s legitimacy, end of story!

Or so we though until a few days ago, when questioning Barack Obama’s birther authenticity has become a global subject discussed as far as Russia, or as close …… depending on which state you’re in.

My question is, if it turns out that Obama is not an American by birth, what does it say about the mighty US Security Services and who should be punished for that mistake/cover-up/ irresponsibility?

Personally I would like to see the Democrats banned from holding the office of President of the United States for the remainder of this century."



Oh goodie, another pundit from across the pond suggesting how Americans should handle their affairs. :roll:

Present company excluded, of course ;)

More along the lines of that Lord Monckton guy was my thinking heh.

I also like how they said this has reached "as far as Russia" - meaning the Pravda rag. :P

Y'know, if Birthers had the support they imagine they do, it'd be child's play for them to push through a petition on WhiteHouse.gov. The threshhold is 25,000 signatures in 30 days, and WND is claiming to have gotten 32,000 signatures on its latest petition in just the last week.

The fact that we've never seen them try this route, much less make a good showing, illustrates either a lack of support or a lack of imagination, or both.

One of the first steps in creating a new petition is creating an account on the Whitehouse.gov site. 99% of all Birthers are WAY to paranoid to take that step.....

I like the way the theme looks. Idunno if blogger is gonna allow that. I don't think they allow aggregator sites. They didn't when I was looking. So, it might not last long.

From WesternJournalism.com:

Barack Obama Was A Foreign Student – American Media Threatened Into Silence

First sentence:

Quote:
On March 7th, 2012, Pravda called out the U.S. press for its deliberate neglect of the largest scandal in modern American history.


And you know what's better than Birthers citing other Birthers as sources? When they're citing themselves. Because the author of this WesternJournalism 'article' is Dianna Cotter, the same author of said March 7 Pravda piece. So she's referencing her own editorial, and pretending like it's some third-party analysis.

An aside on Ms. Cotter: her WCJ piece mentions her website, and her website proudly displays this supposedly honored paper, entitled "The Role of Congress in the Recession of 2008."

Funny thing about the paper, though: after about page three, it doesn't really have much to say about Congress. Rather, it has a *lot* to say about ACORN. In fact, the paper's references to ACORN outnumber the references to 'Congress,' 'House,' and 'Senate' *combined*. If you read this paper stripped of its title, you'd swear it's a paper about ACORN. And this is for English class, which makes the mid-paper shift in focus a bigger problem, since one of the purposes of such an assignment would be to write a well-constructed and well-written piece, not so much about the content.

That alone makes this a problematic paper, such that it makes one wonder what standards Danae is being judged against. Then again, it's consistent with how she approached another paper, which was supposed to be for a class on American History to 1877, and within a few pages she turned it into an argument about Chester Arthur's Constitutional eligibility. Despite the fact that Chester Arthur didn't even become President until 1881. Both times, she allowed her personal political obsessions to overtake the scope of her actual assignment.

That's pathetic.

It appears Danae's professors don't care, and her publishers are cool as long as she bashes Obama.

She's going to an online "Military" School. I wouldn't expect much more.

It disappeared. Now it's back. This is a year-old article, and they keep putting it front and center in their politics section.
