It's hard to believe that only %32 of Republicans believe POTUS OBAMA was born in the US.

If you too believe he was born in the US, please reply. Otherwise, we will count you in the birther category (you have 5 days to respond to the facts). So speak up if you believe POTUS OBAMA was born in the US.

I betcha it's %10 here at TNF.

I'm one of the32%.  I believe he was born in the US.  I also do not believe he is a Muslim

They might start with the same people asking them what country Hawaii is in.  That could clear some of that up.

Yeah but Hawaii had only been a state for two years when he was born there so it's almost like he wasn't born in the U.S.

Oh jeez, now you're lobbing them in there.

I like to see the Pavlov response in birthers.

I think we all need to see Hawaii's papers. I heard Hawaii came over the border in Arizona right before it's anchor baby, Alaska, was born. I bet Hawaii can't produce it's birth certificate.

I will be very surprised if President Obama was born outside of the US.

Skirts are skirting the issue already?

Come on Guido, show your colors!

People may not remember this, but there were some John McCain "birther" threads in this forum in 2008.

Here is one TNF McCain "birther" mocking a former Tulsa dooshbaggers' "birtherism".

Can I call those that questioned McCain's birth place "birthers"? Yep.

Wow Guido, very clever way of displaying your delusional politics. I mean really, John McCain is not POTUS. But it is a connection to this issue. Two wrongs make a right? Is that correct? Or is it a display of your ability to transfer distaste for this President to another thread vis a vie another lie from another time rather than just saying POTUS OBAMA is an American citizen?
Good search job. But we'll count you in with the majority of Republicans until you prove otherwise.
Thanks for waving your colors. I was wrong. All this time I thought you loved Turd Blossoms.

I bet Obama doesnt even remember being born

It's too late at night to go read all those threads, but my recollection was that McCain's birthplace wasn't in any serious question, certainly not by 60-70% of the Democratic Party. What was a possible question, because it's not actually settled law, is whether being born in a US possession is "good enough." Most seem to assume that that or being born to citizen parents anywhere in the world does indeed meet the bar.

It's a tricky question. What about a mere leasehold of the US? An embassy? A flight between two foreign cities on a US-based airline? You see where I'm going.

Obama's birth certificate was published on the Internet for all to see in 2008. That there is still any question about it in the mind of more than the usual lunatic fringe that shows up in every poll about any subject is utterly ridiculous. More so given the intervening time. It evidences quite the disconnect from reality in the minds of many of those who self-identify as Republicans. Whether it's the media they're choosing to feed themselves with or what, I can't say.

Guido never lets reality get in the way of an argument, when confronted by facts he doesn't like he finds it easier to just change the argument. He knows that the McCain thing only came up when the Tea Party idiots started in with the stupid claims that Obama was born in Kenya. Which aside from all the evidence regarding his being born in Hawaii is particularly stupid because:

a.   Obama's mother was American and therefore by law he is too and is eligible to be president even if he was born on the moon.
b.   McCain admittedly wasn't born in the US, but his parents were so go see point a.
