    Erickson puts his shoulder to the goalposts and strains to heave them outward:

    Of course, once the birth certificate issue is dispatched, will he release his college transcripts? That’s the issue for me.

    Now let me see Trig’s. (not really kidding)

    In fact, how about we pass a law that in order to be eligible to eat solid food anywhere in the US, its colonies or areas under diplomatic or military jurisdiction, everyone wear their social security number tattooed on, say, an arm.

    Since this has absolutely nothing to do with Obama’s citizenship and everything to do with his race I don’t see this issue going away anytime soon.

    Some guy on another site is citing the “strange” shadow on the left side of this “photocopy” to allege it is a forgery.
    This is the original that was in a lying sideways in a file deep within the bowels of the Hawaiian records division.
    People like these, I’m beginning to believe, should be rounded up, quarantined and shot full of Thorazine to protect themselves and us.

    Just checked over at DP to see what they had to say. Apparently Frank Knotts has the keys this week. To Frank’s credit, he posted a straight “breaking news” piece on the birth certificate, and let the commenters bring the crazy.

    Of course, Frank might be a bit spent from his recent two-part investigative series proving that the Amendments to the Constitution are not constitutional.

    Trump’s said the thing about the transcripts too.

    The otherness/disqualification argument is going to move from “he’s not a citizen” to “he was unqualified for his ivy league schools/affirmative action/blah blah blah”

    that’s where the constant campaign to disqualify him as legit is going to go now.

    Why we on the left didn’t do this when there were REAL challeneges to our president’s legitimacy (namely he wasn’t actually the winner of the election) I’ll never know.

  7. heragain says:

    How about the Constitutional protection that both the President and the Vice President can’t be from the same state, when we elected 2 residents of Texas?

  8. flutecake says:

    @heragain, you are kinda right, but all they had to do is change Darth Cheney’s address to his summer home of Wyoming and they skipped over the law. It was one of the least egregious laws that they tip-toed over and were given a pass by America, in general.

    Sigh.

    She has a point. Why is Hawaii not releasing EVERY birth certificate from 1961? What are they covering up?

    Go Birther Republicans, GO!!

  10. cassandra_m says:

    I think we should insist on seeing Orly Taitz’ birth certificate. Just to see if she is indeed the illegitimate daughter of Batboy

  11. pandora says:

    Stop being silly, Jason. Birthers don’t need to see every Hawaiian’s birth certificate. They only need to see every non-white Hawaiian’s birth certificate.

  12. MJ says:

    Orly Teitz’s birth certificate will show that she’s the daughter of a nafka and a mamzer.

    I love how Trump’s trolling is making the White House react. He almost couldn’t contain his giddy glee during his comments.

    It was like watching the prankster laugh after the bucket of water fell from the door frame.
