“Well, that should settle it,” said Rep. Michele Bachmann after George Stephanopoulos waved President Obama’s certificate of live birth in her face on Good Morning America yesterday morning.
Really? Ya think?
Hey, laaa-deee!
Someone has to take a fact and rub it in your over-made-up face before you’ll accept it as a fact?
“Introduce that, we’re done. Move on.” What? That friggin’ document was introduced at least THREE years ago. Count ‘em, one, two, three. Haven’t you heard it mentioned at least once or twice? Haven’t any of your brain-dead minions gone on the Interwebby things to check it out?
Haven’t any of them read this interview with Dr. Chiyome Fukino, the former head of the Hawaii Department of Health, who not only inspected Obama’s birth certificate – twice! – but explained that the Certificate of Live Birth is exactly what the state of Hawaii sends to anyone who requests their birth certificate, even a President of the United States? Haven’t any of them noticed that other states, including Mitt Romney’s Michigan, also limit what can be released to the public?
And Donald Trump: when Glenn Beck thinks you’re nuts ….
So listen you dumbass dipshits. It’s fine to have a discussion of serious conservative issues, like the budget deficit and entitlement reforms and tax policy. But if any of you numbnuts want to keep playing the birther card, you are to be labeled as NOT SERIOUS and shunned by anybody seeking legitimate public discussion.
This issue is finished. Done. Over. Kaput. Move along, people, there’s nothing to see here.

All of this is about the presumption that Obama's "real" birth certificate stipulates that he's a Muslim....but no birth certificate stipulates the religion of the child. Some states used forms where the religion of the PARENTS is listed on the birth certificate - although for the life of my I can't figure out why.
So, if we ever got to see the actual, legitimate signed birth certificate, it would probably show that his father was a Muslim and his mother, presumably, was a Christian. I've never heard any claims that Obama's mother practiced Islam so I think it's feasible that they worked it out this way.
The point is that we already know that Obama's father was a Muslim. Asked and answered.
This controversy is actually an attempt to replace the rule of law with the rule of the media because the media....and everyone else who keeps discussing this stupidity without making note of the fact that the place of birth is actually irrelevant....is continuing to fuel the efforts of the Radical Right to rewrite the laws of this nation by replacing the laws with custom and belief.
That's what we have to struggle against....not the stupid birther issue itself.

Preferably out of a canon, yes.
But "proof" will never be proof as long as there's an idiot out there who can scream "It's doctored!" loudly enough. When the facts don't bear them out, idiots revert to fantasy.

I am actually more upset about the "Hollywood Celebrities" who are against Pres Obama right now. Who are they? Mel Gibson? Tom Selleck? Sonny Bono?
