Thank you Me4Obama 😉
ThinkProgress: In July 2008, a researcher “looking to dig up dirt on Obama” instead came across a birth announcement from 1961 in the Honolulu Advertiser documenting the birth of then presidential candidate Barack Obama in the state. For many, the announcement, together with Obama’s birth certificate, conclusively proved that Obama was born in the United States and is eligible to run for president.
Rumored presidential hopeful Donald Trump isn’t convinced. On CNN’s State of the Union he claimed that Obama’s grandparents planted the announcement to obtain welfare benefits:
TRUMP: The grandparents put that [birth announcement] in [the newspaper] because obviously they want him to be a United States citizen because in those days, people were much more proud than they are today unfortunately for being a United States citizen…. So they wanted him to be a citizen of the United States, for that purpose, and also for hospitalization, for welfare….
…the birth information printed in the Honolulu Advertiser always came directly from the state health department (via the local hospital), not Obama’s grandparents or relatives.
It’s also worth noting that since Obama’s mother was a U.S. citizen, he was automatically conferred citizenship and all of its “assets” no matter where he was born, thus making him eligible anyway for the benefits Trump claims his family committed fraud to obtain. Unless his grandparents somehow knew that baby Obama would one day want to run for president, there wouldn’t really be a reason for his family to fabricate a convoluted lie regarding his birthplace.

Don’t know if I should barf or larf. I know… I’ll blarf! 🙂
OMG that is so crazy. Boy, the Donald is really looking old like one of those clowns in the “Clown Horror Movie.” Is he doing all this to just boost a tv show. Does anyone really watch those shows about getting fired when so many have been fired. Doesn’t make sense to me.
PERFECTO 🙂
Bozo the clown lol
Don’t insult Bozo!
Bwahahahahahah. …….bwahahahahahah……..chipsticks u r simply the best. Bwahahahahahah.
Well, if I’m the best, you’re the bestest – you told me about it! You’re a treasure 😉
It is so funny that they only have to color in his nose and his mouth! The rest of his face already fits a clown.
😆 Magnificent Betty’s Girl!!!! 😆
Ok I just read the report. I don’t know why he is pissing me off so but someone has to do something about the venom he is spitting not just at the President but his family as well. His mom and grandparents are deceased and deserve respect. Then again it just shows Chump’s level of maturity. I really hope he is ruined professionally by all this!
This sh@@head needs to shut the f@@k up! What a sorry excuse for a human being; and the same for all of the amoral media fools who abet him.
Ugh ,
Betty’s Girl, u really hope he is ruined professionally by all this, well if that picture doesn’t make u realize how a laughing Stock he is becoming then I don’t know what else. He is a clown but a really ugly hearted clown. Imagine sitting in a boardroom and all your employees just saw you on the front page of a newspaper. How about his investors thinking they’re investing in a clown.
I take comfort in the thought of his investors catching a glimpse of that. Thanks Me4obama. I bet he thought this stunt would lift him up in stature.
Ahh, priceless!
I really love your points. He has to looked like a fool and yes I hope it destroys professionally. That’s what he is doing to the President. It has now become personal for him. What he is doing is not something to take lightly. He is basically saying the President knowling spent millions to defraud the US government which is punishable by law. A very serious crime.
You know it’s bad when one of your own state’s major newspapers prints issues with you in KKKlown face!
The Clown’s rationale is getting more and more twisted.
As President Clinton said of the birthers: “Keep shooting yourselves in the foot.”
ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn Rachel Maddow!!!!!!!! The unmitigated gall of that bitch!!!!!!!I hate her!!!! I hate her so much!!!!! It’s like that fat turd Keith Olberman has taken over her shit for brains. She’s on t.v spewing absolute shite about the president, comparing the budget deal with the repugs to her being a push over for her whiny dog. you should hear her. She’s like: PBO doesn’t know how to negotiate with repugs cause he always winds up giving them more than they asked for and how he trained the repugs to demand unthinkable things. God!!!! She’s really gone too far!!!!! She’s so dumb, what a turd. I hope her ratings sink faster than her lard ass in a kiddie swimming pool and GE fires her dumb butt. She’s really gone beyond the pale. I don’t even hate Jon Friggin Stewart half as much as I hate that pinko-commie bitch! If I write her an e-mail, I’m afraid that it will be perceived as a threatening letter and trouble with the law is something I don’t need right now. Stupid fink. I swear, this is no over-exaggeration, if you have the stomach and the blood pressure to deal with her shit, then look it up for yourselves. She’s pushed the envelope quite a few times, but this time that skank went over the g**damn edge. Did I mention how much I hate that swine?
lisa, send Rachel the email, she need to hear from those who support this President. She will be hearing from me right now. I was listening to her, but I had enough of it so I turn the channel.
I think I’ll go tweet that she doesn’t speak for me.
Pardon me, I was so infuriated that I misspelled Olbermann, and sorry, I didn’t mean to call her swine, I meant SOW!!!!
Okay, why don’t you tell us how you REALLY feel.
Hey LunarSea, I honestly feel better now that I’ve gotten that off my chest. I’ve decided that after Lawrence, I’ll just change the channel and watch something else. But sorry for just spewing like that, I was just so mad at her and myself for giving her another chance. Well, you know what Bush said: “fool me once…. well, ah, well…shame on me, fool me twice… well that can’t happen again, you can’t fool me twice….ah.” 😉
Sorry all,I was just so frustrated with her and myself that I had to unwind. I’ll just watch something else.
I didn’t mind at all. My response was pure snark. I totally understand and that is why I stopped watching all these show for like over a year now. I had to because I would end up feeling like a cartoon character. You know when a cartoon character gets all angry and the red rises up their bodies. That was the effect on me. I could feel the red rising.
I also vividly remember the swiftboating of Kerry and it is more intense now. A lot of people can take the likes of Rachel and Co, and I am grateful for them (and you just now) for keeping me informed, but I know my limits.
So now I will be ninja! ha ha ha. Went to the Maddow hash on twitter. There were a lot of people tsk tsking her, (myself included) a couple tried to stand up for her, but they were too dumb to engage.
And I feel better for it. Consider it my vicarious gift to you. ::-):
It’s much appreciated 😉
PS I think it’s cute that even in your anger, you want to get the spelling correct.
😆
Typical twunty PL behavior is all, no surprise. Let her and the rest of her PL ilk wallow in their false claims. Facts are on the American people’s side and we are not buying their lies.
Rachel is only concerned with far left positions…..in her function as observer, she has the luxury of not having to actually contend with the counter-forces that confront, and have to be negotiated, by PBO. Seems clear, Rachel leaves no room for negotiation or compromise.
She seems adamant President Obama be someone he is not, conducting himself in a manner incongruent with his nature. That’s like telling Rachel to adapt a different sexual identity… unrealistic, and really misdirectd. She’s very smart, I don’t get how she can dismiss the context of reality in her analysis.
Rachel should run for the office if she is so sure she knows best, and knows how to get it done.
He seems to have become unhinged. Have you seen the stories—Wonkette and Gawker—-about how he’s sending pieces written about him back to the writers—Vanity Fair and NYTimes etc.—with derisive scribblings all over them—like he was a 3rd grader? He’s lost it! He’s without substance and is so vulgar and vindictive. There’s nothing he won’t do to call attention to himself, even if it means appealing to the hateful, racist birthers, and even if it means trying to damage the President of the United States and this country.
You said it so much better than I Dotster!
Donald “the Clown” Trump. Never looked better.
Heads up everyone, tomorrow the president’s sister will be on CNN.
Obama’s sister call’s Trump’s birther rant “a shame”
President Barack Obama’s sister Maya Soetero-Ng sat down with Piers Morgan this afternoon for an interview that will air tomorrow night.
In her first prime time interview, Maya voices her opinion about the way Donald Trump has handled the Obama birthplace rant. “Well, I think it’s a shame,” she says. “And I think that my brother should definitely be president for a second term.”
“I think that it is time for people to put that to bed, to put it to rest completely.” She says there is a tremendous amount of proof Obama was born in Hawaii.
To see the interview in full tune in to CNN Tuesday night at 9pm ET/PT

Thank you! I will not miss it. Her children book is out soon. A book about their mom “A Singular Woman” is due out next month. Can’t wait for both!
She must have asked the president if she can sit down for the interview. I love Maya so much she has the most beautiful Deep voice I have ever heard. She is also very beautiful inside and out. I will be watching thanks for letting us know bjw2.
Well This I will not be able to wait for clips to watch. For the first time in years I will watch a CNN show. God bless Maya I know she hates having to do this. This whole despicable birther meme is such a disrespect to her and POTU’sS Mom and Grandparents, I can’t even….. The interviewer better not be nasty or condescending to this good woman.
I hate that she has to give that SOB Piers Morgan a ratings boost! Piers has been part of the crap pack and I can only hope his show fizzles out soon! Bastards the whole lot of them!
Ohh I love her. Thanks for the head’s up.
Chump boy, can’t get a gambling license in Vegas, ha, ha, ha, Chump boy declares bankruptcy over and over. ha, ha, ha.. Chump boy screws around on every wife, hah, ha. ha.. Does this chump think he can really be president…
Anybody who would not only go after our President with this cheap and vile BS but disparage his deceased grandparents with vicious and disgusting and absolutely BASELESS assumptions is very, very sick. I do not care whatsoever what his motives are. He has crossed the line time and time again. It makes me furious that Maya has to be confronted with this phony inquiry and deal with this crass moron. ENOUGH.
Letterman on tonight on his show: “Trump is having a problem coming up with his own birth certificate since he is half jack, half ass”…
Still up doing some writing so I thought I’d pose this: should we go after Chump’s sponsors? For the Celebrity Apprentice they are 7-Up, Onstar, Camping World, ACN (?) Omaha steaks and Farouk Hair systems. I’ll try to get more info.
The only thing that will stop this looser is his loosing money.
Since he’s been bankrupt many times over, I’m not so sure it will bother him…
How long can this vile man continue to make an azz of himself. Hope his investors/family tell him that he is looking like an azz right now; but knowing how big his ego is, that wouldn’t bother him, he has sold his soul to the devil.
Don’t rate Piers M as an interviewer at all, Lord only know how he got that gig. Will wait for the clips of Maya’s interview – CNN is on my banned list.
he spends his time trying to get people to turn against PBO i.e: Clooney who saw right through him; Oprah who told him to basically suck it and Matt Damon who fell for Morgan’s guff(sorry, Repug talking points.)
