We accept their name, the Birthers for wanting to give rebirth to that which we as Americans hold dear. To return the favor of giving us a name in which we can find a common identity, we in turn give them a name that must be our polarizing opposites, "the O-Borters." For they are seeking to abort the fabric that has held America together, the Constitution of the United States of America.

They are quoting de Vattel.

I'll have to take a closer look at this when I get back from class. Got a midterm tonight on Western Monotheism.

Oh, before I go, allow me to add this gem about explaining the USSC cases that "back" their argument:
Quote:
Wong Kim Ark Case, 169 U.S. 649 (1898) Affirms that “natural born citizen,” is the child of an existing citizen. “The right of citizenship never descends in the legal sense, either by the common law or under the common naturalization acts. It is incident to birth in the country, or it is given personally by statute. The child of an alien, if born in the country, is as much a citizen as the natural born child of a citizen, and by operation of the same principle.”


:lol:

Labeling and ridiculing the opposition is a tactic of the communist union organizer Saul Alinsky which he detailed in his book, "Rules for Radicals". Specifically that tactic is Rule #5.


So they assign labels? Makes sense to me!! :lol: :lol:

That opening statement reminds me of "My Little Golden Book About Zogg"

http://www.whatisdeepfried.com/zogg/zogg1.html

Quote:
"We are Zogg.

Our Kind travels between the stars as an endogenous retrovirus encoded into a modulating carrier wave in the 1800 kHz range. When you look up at the evening sky, know we have conquered 48.729% of the known universe"

I thought one of their big beefs was that the mainstream media ignore them. Just pick one, for God's sake.

It was.

Until the media started paying attention to them by way of pointing out what a bunch of whack jobs they are.

And they are immediately censoring posts that dare offer an alternative view. I just had a half dozen that made it through initial moderation suddenly disappear.

I've never been to a birther board where, if my comment did make it through, it wasn't deleted within 24 hours. It's the standard. They are just looking for "truth". bah.

They're not looking for truth.

They're looking for affirmation.

They let one of my posts through, and took me off of moderation.

I'd since made several other posts, but they have all been deleted.

The folks behind Birthers.org are nothing more than COWARDS.

Intellectual pussies who talk a big game, but when challenged, run and hide behind the mommie's skirt of censorship.
