Did you hear the caller that said God has had enuf of Amerika deviating? And since he's a jealous God, he's gonna smite us all?

They wouldn't address my question about jealousy being a sin, and how could a jealous God live with himself.

NoNonsenseNancy IDd me as an obot, and said she had lots of experience dealing with obots. I told her to Fear the FogBow, and she was bumfuzzled. So much for her obot expertise.

Beckwith of TheObamaFile spots an internet plot:

Quote:
Yup! Big, rich Yahoo is indeed censoring The Obama File, and it appears, because of the quickness of the delete, that it is being done under software control (automatically).

Now, the question is:

Did Yahoo choose to censor The Obama File on its own, or are they responding to orders from Team Obama?


You might think that's a false dilemma...and you'd be right. Because as he notes an hour later:

Quote:
I just tried that and it did delete a post with a link to Business Week.

I apologize for crying wolf, Yahoo just doesn’t like links.


So the answer to "Is Yahoo censoring TheObamaFile willingly or at the orders of Obama?" is "Neither."

Now if only Youtube would censor "Dreams from my Real Father", that would be perfect.

Y'know, I don't recall hearing a peep from JB Williams since his epic Veteran's Day Fail that MsDaisy attended.

Harrington, neither.

I doubt they gave up the faith. I'd rather have them two out in the open so's I can keep a sharp eye on 'em.

Haven't spotted Vallely birthering lately, neither.

BOLO :P

I agree. They're more dangerous when they're forced underground. But still I hate the vile libel they keep heaping on the president's dead mother.

Michael Zak pronounces Rubio eligible.

That's him with Mittens:
Image

Quote:
Marco Rubio is a Natural Born Citizen, and Eligible to Be Mitt Romney VP

According to the Constitution, to be eligible for the presidency (or vice presidency), a person must be a “natural born citizen” of the United States. The purpose of this restriction is to prevent a foreigner from becoming the nation’s chief executive.

How can people become U.S. citizens? There are just two ways; either they are born citizens or they become citizens later in life. In the first case, anyone who is a citizen by nature of his birth is a “natural born citizen.” In the second case, anyone who is a citizen of another country at birth, but is granted U.S. citizenship sometime afterward, is a naturalized citizen.

For example, John McCain, though born in Panama, is eligible for the presidency, because he became a citizen at birth. Similarly, had Gen. George Meade sought the presidency, he would have been eligible because, though born in Spain, he was a U.S. citizen by nature of his birth. Any non-naturalized U.S. citizen over the age of 35 with 14 years of residence can be President of the United States.

Sadly, this common-sense, logical approach does not dissuade some conservative pundits from inventing a new constitutional requirement for the presidency. Despite the plain meaning of the text, they claim that, to be eligible, a person’s parents must also be U.S. citizens. A few even assert that one’s parents must also be natural born citizens. I’ll spare you a recitation of their nonsense about “native born” or Emerich de Vattel or whatnot.


Remainder here:
http://www.policymic.com/articles/7637/ ... -romney-vp

or here:

http://grandoldpartisan.typepad.com/blo ... rubio.html


Silly birfers. errrr... Silly Vattelites. You Forger-Birthers are okay. :P


We heard about Michael Zak before. He was the guy who wrote about blacks on the GOP.com site.

Democrats are the real racists.

Apparently, Mario Apuzzo is now the lawyer for Barack Obama. When did this happen? Why didn't my esteemed leader George Soros tell me this?

I told him that Mario Apuzzo directly said that it didn't happen, giving him the quote, and giving him a link to it. He responded back:

Ahh, so you believe an Obama lawyer? You are gullible.

Over at Mitt Romney Central 'Chat', 'MrMike' is educating the regulars as to Obama's 'true' father, directing them to read Pamela Gellar's 'evidence' etc.

It's weird watching it happening in real time:

Cracked.com: 5 Ways to Spot a B.S. Political Story in Under 10 Seconds

#4. The Headline Ends in a Question Mark

Quote:
A news story so questionable the publication literally felt the need to mark it as such.

The ugliest use of this is when news aggregators like Matt Drudge use question marks to put forth a bullshit conspiracy theory to avoid having to stand behind it. For instance, when a new book came out claiming President Obama had no valid birth certificate because he was actually a foreigner living under a false identity, Drudge promoted it like this:

Hey, he's not saying President Obama is living a lie and is secretly a Muslim foreigner sent to infiltrate America from within. He's just asking the question. What's wrong with asking questions? Questions like "Is Matt Drudge a cancer on the asshole of modern journalism?" I don't know. I'm just throwing it out there. You can say absolutely anything as long as you glue a question mark to the end, and nobody can complain.

Of course, the book Drudge was promoting was turned into an expensive shim for a short table leg when the administration released his real birth certificate right as it was about to go on sale. But that in no way reflects on Drudge's credibility, because he never said he believed the book. He was simply wondering out loud.

I was over there for a while. Debating politely, winning the battle. And baned!

And all my lines deleted.

Chickenshit cowards.

That's what happens to anyone who dares not to be unctuous about Romney.

They've been driving people off for months. Each time a Republican candidate leaves the race, the site gets a boost of newbies, and they whittle them down.

Where are they?

WHO are they?

WHY did they support Santorum (or whoever) in the FIRST PLACE?

Links to other internet handles are often requested. 'Where else do you post? What's your handle there?', 'What's your twitter account?' etc. They also remind each other that people have these accounts set up - sometimes for YEARS - in order to infiltrate.

But to get back to birtherism, the outbreaks at that chat site are becoming more frequent.

Open birthering doesn't ever get smacked down. They tend to deal with the wilder claims/links by reverting back to 'Mitt's a decent family man and so were his parents'. 'No one could say anything bad about Mitt's Mom' 'You can read stories about Mitt's childhood to your children. You can't say that about Obummer' and so on. Nasty, nasty comments about Michelle O are prefaced with 'I don't like to say this but...'

My guess is that wavering Obama supporters who land up there are fairly quickly exposed to a bubbling undercurrent of conspiracy - and yes, racist - fuelled hatred (nothing to do with policy direction), before they run themselves off.

Yeah, I should have known better. The zap should not have been unexpected. Chickenshits.

Wow. A reward offered by an anonymous party. We know how honest *those* have been in the past. But good news:

Maybe you'll find the transcripts on E-bay. I heard someone has created found new documents that conclusively prove Obama actually graduated from Taft Law School. But you better bid quick! :P

Update on the $10K college transcript offer:

Quote:
Although its one-page website is presented anonymously, conservative blogger Brooks Bayne confirmed to The Daily Caller that he is responsible for it.

Bayne told TheDC that a group of eight people – including some he called “recognizable” figures – are coordinating the effort to make Obama’s college transcripts public, Bayne told The Daily Caller. He declined to name any of them...

Asked what he expects to find in Obama’s college transcripts, should they turn up, Bayne said that could challenge conventional wisdom about the types of classes he took and the grades he received.

“All we have heard from the media is how much smarter Barack is than all the other candidates,” he explained.

He also suspects Obama’s coursework could highlight his “hardcore leftist-slash-progressive-slash-neo-marxist point of view.”
