Rush Limbaugh leads charge on Obama birth certificate again

Just when you thought American politics was getting back to some real bipartisanship and progress...

Rush Limbaugh among others is calling again for Obama to produce the long form of his birth certificate to prove he was born an American.

The right wing web was aflame yesterday with stories that Hawaii governor Neil Abercrombie had not found the version of Obama's birth certificate , though Abercrombie himself had said nothing on the topic.

It is the kind of issue that will doom Republicans in 2012, a relentless drumbeat of lies, speculation and pure fantasy.

Back in the Clinton era it was who killed Vince Foster, a tragic figure who committed suicide.

Clinton used those crazy tactics to forge two successful runs at the presidency.

Obama should do the same now, corral these conspiracy theorists especially Rush Limbaugh, as the intolerant face of the Republican Party as he heads into election 21012.

The drum roll of verbal diarrhea from Limbaugh is nothing new of course, the four times married, prescription pain killer drug addled paragon of perfection presumes to lecture all Americans on morality and proper behavior.

It is a sad reflection that after the Gabbie Giffords shooting that he and his fellow pundits are back beating this dead horse one more time.

Shouldn't we all just move on?

I like Rush. He tells it like it is. I am not affiliated with any party at this time. I'm for ridding this country of all of them. Barry Soetoro Hussein, as we are finding out, is a LIAR like a certain congressman stated. He is way worse then that. The person was ramradded into power. Yes, he is a good speaker. But, he is also a faker, taker, racist, non American and not a good person. Of course, this is my opinion. For now I can have an opinion. If Barry stays much longer we won't have that right. He and his band of idiots. Yes, that's what they are, should be run out of the country on a rail. Liars, cheaters, thieves and just horrible people. Your president is a woosy. Concerned AMERICAN, LV

IF YOU had graduateing certificates from Colimbia & Harvard, they be proudly hung on your office wall, just like your Doctor or Lawyer. If someone brought up your birch certificate, it'd be simple to show the dumb thing. So why is is Insaine Hussein allows the issue be be dragged into several lawsuits? Why has NO-ONE seen his school records, Ever? Something is terribly amiss here Folks! His Zionist, Socialist Handlers and Puppet-Masters need to maintain solid control of our demise to ensure success for their One-World Odrer, coming very soom!

No one questioned whether John McCain was born in the United States during the 2008 election ( He wasn't, he was born in the Panama Canal Zone), and I haven't seen Rush Limbaugh"s Birth certificate yet.

Part of the sad pathology of US politics is the attempt to claim that constitutionally elected Presidents are not constitutionally legitimate. The right did this with Clinton, the left with Bush II, and the most extreme kooks are doing this with Obama.

Ha, under the new Republican governor in Hawaii the state plans to raise revenue by charging $100 to all the right wingers demanding a copy of Obama's birth certificate. Ireland should follow this example and claim he was born in Ireland, charging 200 Euros to get a copy of his birth certificate. ... By the way, the Republican governor of Hawaii DID find Obama's birth certificate in the state archives, not at the hospital where he was born, since Hawaii hospitals transfer birth records to the state archives and do not keep any records of their own. Finding Obama' birth certificate is OLD news, and any claim that the Republican governor could not find the document is either carelessness or a deliberate lie.

I forgot all about "Vinnie". He may have committed suicide. However, there is no doubt that the body was moved to a jurisdiction (Park Service) where it could be "swept under the run". I personally don't see the relevance of Obama being born in Kenya. McCain was born in Panama. However, it is the coverup aspects that are highly irrelevant just as the coverup of the true circumstances of the death of Vince Foster who happened to be very religious, by the way.

This is just so silly. Produce the long form birth certificate and it becomes a dead issue. The Republicans are falling for a Democrat ruse, and don't the Dems just love this.

Anyone would be able to get a copy of Obama's birth cert. for a $100.00 fee under a bill introduced in the Hawaii state legislature that backers hope will dispel claims he was born elsewhere. The fee would help to raise money for the govt. which has a budget deficit. Evidently, Hawaiian officials have something to sell - Obama's birth record.

Rush, has the cyst on your ### that kept you out of the draft cleared up yet. So many draft dodgers, so little memory..... The CIA and NSA know more about Obama than he does, If he was not born in the US, He would never have gotten past candidate status. Presidents cannot bother answering every yahoo wearing a pair of doubleknit pants and driving 1997 parlor car. He was president of the Hrvard Law Revue, but nobody knows him. Why don't you guys finish your checkout counter literature, and get out of the house once in a while
