    from his manifesto

    I didn’t vote in this last election as my choice of candidate, John Huntsman, didn’t win the primary candidacy for his party.

    In my cache you will find several small arms. In the cache, Bushmaster firearms, Remington precision rifles, and AAC Suppressors (silencers). All of these small arms are manufactured by Cerberus/Freedom Group. The same company responsible for the Portland mall shooting, Webster , NY, and Sandy Hook massacre.

    Gov. Chris Christie. What can I say? You’re the only person I would like to see in the White House in 2016 other than Hillary. You’re America’s no s**t taking uncle. Do one thing for your wife, kids, and supporters. Start walking at night and eat a little less, not a lot less, just a little. We want to see you around for a long time. Your leadership is greatly needed.

    The honorable President George H.W. Bush, they never give you enough credit for your successful Presidency. You were always one of my favorite Presidents (2nd favorite). I hope your health improves greatly. You are the epitome of an American and service to country.

    Revoke the citizenship of Fareed Zakaria and deport him.

    Mr. Scarborough, we met at McGuire’s pub in P-cola in 2002 when I was stationed there. It was an honor conversing with you about politics, family, and life.

  4. G says:

    Yeah, the better article was the one posted in the last Open Thread, which shows the full manifesto (with only private citizen names and foul words redacted).

    Sadly, great injustice and corruption can push people too far…and now we have a broken and dangerous vigilante out there, who has given up hope and sees no other way out.

    The whole point of civilization and rule of law is to prevent vigilante justice…but a corrupt law system is itself a violation of that treaty towards protecting both civilization and the rule of law…

    I do not condone the vigilante actions this broken and bitter man is taking at all…

    I only hope that something good can come from all this bad and that the charges in his manifesto are investigated by outside agencies thoroughly, to see if they have merit and to help put some better checks and balances to reduce corruption and abuse within the LAPD and everywhere else that can also benefit.

    Sadly, there was a lot of things that made sense in his manifesto. If only it could have been released and become a focus of discussion, investigation and reflection without him having to take such extreme and reprehensible measures in the first place…killing is just not ok.

    Stories like this make me truly sad for our world and the inherent flaws of humanity…

    This isn’t vigilance, it’s a vendetta.

  6. G says:

    Good point. That is certainly a better term than vigilantism.

    Right now, he’s settling personal scores of perceived injustices in his own life in a deadly and illegal manner. That is clearly a vendetta, with names being named.

    …However, based on his suicide note manifesto, it is clear that he’s at his wits end with a whole host of injustices in the world, beyond just what has personally happened to him.

    …So if he really is as talented and dangerous as he claims to be and eludes capture for awhile, I would not put it past someone in his frame of mind to start going after whatever perceived “legitimate targets” cross his path.

    …which if that happens, then we’re dealing with The Punisher come to life…

  7. Lupin says:

    To lighten the mood, and since I just posted the original mistranslation from CINDERELLA, I thought I’d post another case of bad/funny errors in translation, this time from English to French.

    The classic 1956 film INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS was released in France by someone who had obviously never seen the film, read the Finney novel, or even knew what it was all about, because they released it under the title L’INVASION DES PROFANATEURS DE SEPULTURES, i.e. INVASION OF THE GRAVE ROBBERS, obviously misconstruing the “body snatching” in question for the more ordinary crime of grave robbing.

    To this day, the film(s), etc. are all using the mistranslated title in France, as it has become too well known to change. But it is kind of silly.

  12. scott e says:

    justlw: You do know who Walter Annenberg was, right? Conservative zillionaire publisher, ambassador under NIxon and Reagan.Later decided to devote his life to philanthropy.Now, I know that’s a dirty word in some conservative circles, but if it makes you feel better, you can go back and bask in this bit of his newspaper’s journalistic excellence, from teh WP:

    But anyhoo.As of 2005, the Annenberg Foundation has awarded over five thousand grants.Two of those 5,000+ grants are:

    • The Chicago Annenberg Challenge, which Barack Obama headed from 1995-1999; and,

    • The Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania, established in 1993, which has as one of its projects Factcheck.org .

    The only common link to these two organizations, then, is that they were started by grant money from a foundation started by a conservative philanthropist, chaired at the time by a woman who was once chief of protocol to Ronald Reagan.

    Let’s say you currently have a mortgage with Wells Fargo, and I once did as well but no longer do. Any logic that says Barack Obama or other scary libruls somehow have any influence over factcheck.org because of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge would come to the conclusion that I own your house.

    The actual problem you are having with the Mikkelsons and Factcheck is due to, as Stephen Colbert pointed out, reality having a well-known liberal bias.

    any “challenge” board chaired by a terrorist can’t be all bad right ?

    At least she passed the bar, You pathetic birthers just keep making the same mistakes over and over, and telling lies over and over, and you never get anywhere. You’re been stuck in denial for 4 years.

    So what’s your source that the Obama’s surrendered their licenses? You don’t have one. Some birther just went to the web site and found them inactive and then launched into a flight of fancy.

    Hell, you’re too stupid to read the topic of the current thread.

    a little more than that, but you’re right i don’t know if it’s gospel. i don’t think it really matters. there are other things more telling in my opinion. like how michelle robinson grew up a few miles from me, her father engaged in democrat politics, and she had never heard of bill ayers or bernardine dorhn. and we’re about the same age too. don’t forget, this was chicago in the late sixties. but again, it’s just my opinion. i think she was the second mayor daley’s assistant. i don’t think i’m stupid crazy or racist, the biggest difference between us is you hope you’re right, and i hope i’m wrong.

    there seem to be arguments for both sides.

  24. Paper says:

    (If another Bob Gard thread opens up, I’ll repost this there, but in the meantime…)

    Well, it’s a good thing we don’t have to listen to such conspiratorial scoundrels then, isn’t it? With their secret codes and not bothering to tell us what the words really meant. Since they didn’t bother to tell the ratifiers, we can just ignore them in turn. Good riddance to them. I would say it’s a shame they didn’t bother to pass down their secrets to anyone in government today, but really, it’s probably just as well that such undemocratic trickery didn’t survive. Too secret for their own good, I guess.

    And this is what you want to resurrect? Secret cabals? And you think such imagined secrets have any hold on us?

    If this were really the case, they might as well have been an imaginary King George in his parlor, laughing at how those Americans thought they were free of his rule. It was just his little secret that he didn’t tell them, that they were still his subjects. Ha ha ha, he fooled them.

    Yeah, our founders and framers sure fooled us. So much so that Congress just went right ahead and certified President Obama, not once but twice. Take that secret codes!

    Even were it true, good luck getting Americans to go for such a betrayal of the American project. You must remember what those early Americans told King George: No taxation without representation. You think Americans are ever going to go, oh! secret codes! why didn’t you tell us? We’ll get right on that then. When? How about two days after the end of the universe? We’d do it sooner, but you know, filibusters, what can you do, eh?

    Bob Gard: Never in the public light. If Jay had, we wouldn’t be debating. Like the “hope” and “change” of today, our politicians allowed the attendees of the ratification conventions to interpret natural-born citizens any way they wanted. Because of the secrecy code in the Constitutional Convention and the off-premise meetings in taverns, cafes and drawing parlors, where the term was described in private, they could keep the meaning secret and they did. The framers did not want to alienate a single person who wasn’t a true “natural-born citizen,” who might be put off by the “discrimination” against children born after the Constitution.

  25. Rickey says:

    Paper:

    Well, it’s a good thing we don’t have to listen to such conspiratorial scoundrels then, isn’t it?With their secret codes and not bothering to tell us what the words really mean.

    Next Bob will be telling us that each member of the Constitutional Convention was issued a secret decoder ring. `

    He is a fraud, plain and simple.

    1. He wants us to believe that when he was 13 years old he debated his civics teacher about his “two citizen parent” requirement to be NBC.

    2. He want us to believe that he was a victim of affirmative action, even though affirmative action wasn’t a factor in college admissions until several years after he graduated high school.

    3. He wants us to believe that he lost out on a partial scholarship to attend Princeton to a female with a 1.8 GPA, even though Princeton didn’t accept female students until the 1969-1970 school year.

    4. He told the Terry Lakin Action Fund that he has a degree in political science and that he traveled throughout the world after he graduated college. However, the introduction to his 1974 piece on Equatorial Guinea says that he wrote his dissertation “in part to demonstrate that dissertations can be written without the preparation of the formal curriculum required of B.A. and Ph.D. students in American universities.” So does he have a degree or not? If so, where and when did he go to college?

    The fact that he has refused to answer straightforward questions about his credentials speaks volumes.

  26. Jim says:

    Rickey:
    The fact that he has refused to answer straightforward questions about his credentials speaks volumes.

    Come on…don’t you recognize “birther” credentials when you see them? We all know those are more important than a college education and training in those fields of study.

  27. Scientist says:

    Rickey: He wants us to believe that he lost out on a partial scholarship to attend Princeton to a female with a 1.8 GPA, even though Princeton didn’t accept female students until the 1969-1970 school year

    I think he lost out on the scholarships because the recruiters figured out what a pompous jerk he was 2 minutes into the interview. Either Bob is lying about what they told him or they told him about the black women just to spare his feelings. Frankly, if I had to interview Bob, I would say just about anything in order to get the hell out of there.

    Paper: Since they didn’t bother to tell the ratifiers, we can just ignore them in turn.

    Exactly! By making that statement Bob blew up his own argument. If the framers pulled a fast one on the ratifiers, then no one is bound by the result. In fact, if Bob is right, then the natural born citizen clause may well be completely invalid.

  28. Publius says:

    Ah, yes. the secret meaning of “natural born citizen” that was so secret, not even the ratifiers of the Constitution were supposed to know what it meant. 😆

    Bob’s argument has fallen apart in a whole bunch of places, not just one.

    From the site:

    Please do not expect a proverbial “smoking gun”. It is unreasonable to think there would be one. There is none. Certainly, none has been brought to light over the past few centuries.

    The thing I realized in the course of the conversation is that there actually is a smoking gun. Not just one, but a whole bunch of them. Once you start taking all the little bits and pieces and start putting them together, even using only sources close to the Founders and Framers and the Constitutional Convention, it’s all pretty clear.

  29. Dave B. says:

    It’s so secret that it took Bob finding out that some guys had dinner years later, across the ocean, to decipher it. Who knows what other secrets Bob has uncovered, that are so secret to this day that he can’t even tell us?

    Publius: Ah, yes. the secret meaning of “natural born citizen” that was so secret, not even the ratifiers of the Constitution were supposed to know what it meant.

  30. dunstvangeet says:

    Because of the secrecy code in the Constitutional Convention and the off-premise meetings in taverns, cafes and drawing parlors, where the term was described in private, they could keep the meaning secret and they did.

    So, if it’s a secret meaning, doesn’t this mean that it’s not a “Plain English meaning”? Weren’t you claiming that you were spouting the “Plain English meaning” of what the phrase meant?

  31. Greenfinches says:

    Any clues as to where Mario has gone?

    It’s delightfully peaceful without him, and no gratuitous insults being flung about in default of an actual answer to an actual question……… Rational discussion returns!

  32. Mario has retreated to his own blog where he converses with a small band of admirers like Michael N and Teobear. He still moderates all comments and lets few a few Obot ones get through as long as they do not point out his record of complete failure in the courts.

  34. J.D. Sue says:

    scott e: they both surrendered their illinois licenses

    Since I have an active Illinois license, I think I can speak to this. Unless a lawyer is actually practicing law in Illinois, there is absolutely no reason to maintain the license in active status and there are plenty of reasons not to. It is costly, requires meeting continuing education requirements set by the Illinois Supreme Court, and renders one always subject to the authority of the Illinois Supreme Court (because we are “Officers of the Court”). Moreover, anytime Barack or Michelle Obama want to return to practice law in Illinois, all they have to do is pay dues.

    As an aside, this is just one more example of why one rarely finds a competent lawyer willing to buy into the Obama conspiracy nonsense–it requires demonstrating too much ignorance about the law.

  35. donna says:

    a new conspiracy – why is the pope really resigning? hmmmm

  36. Arthur says:

    Birthers, conspiratorial-minded as they are, also tend to the paranoid. For example, ORYR has had a couple of recent articles about the Obama administration forming a “cyber army” that “target[s]anti-Obama sites.” It appears that scott e. is convinced that this cyber army exists.

    “scott erlandson 12 hours ago
    this seems pretty hot, and goes along with my experiences with online obots at forums. they appeared too slick, i spotted common writing syles, idioms etc. they are made up characters in obama’s sick play. i immeadiately spotted them as too professional. scott e.”

    Scott, just because someone expresses himself with a modicum of clarity and intelligence doesn’t mean he’s a professional Obot intent on making a fool of you. God knows, even an amateur can do that.

    Nevertheless, at least one reader agrees with Scott:

    “Serpico 11 hours ago
    I think their home base is ‘The Fogbow’. I believe the poster called ‘Wong Kim Ark’, HistorianDude and Epectitus are all the same guy.”

    Why is it always the Fobbow and never OCT!?

  37. Arthur says:

    donna:
    a new conspiracy – why is the pope really resigning? hmmmm

    Cue birthers saying it has something to do with Obama having billions in the Vatican bank in 3 . . . 2. . . 1–

  38. donna says:

    Arthur

    or that obama got to the vatican too? taitz will now file supplemental brief II with newly discovered “evidence”: pope benedict about to issue a directive that obama is ineligible – the pope learned about obama’s ineligibility from his fellow hitler youth members

  39. Publius says:

    Well, he’s the first Pope in 600 years to resign, and the last one wasn’t for health reasons.

    Popes just don’t resign for health reasons. They just don’t.

    So obviously, he’s being forced out, in fear for his life. But by who?

    Hint: What does Obama have to gain by installation of a new Pope?

    Second hint: What part of the world do you think the next Pope is likely to come from? Could it be… Africa?

    Aside from that, what does this Pope know about Obama’s birth in Kenya? Hmm? Could it be that the Pope found out something he wasn’t supposed to know?

    I’ll bet it won’t take the kooks long to come up with something like the above.

  40. Arthur says:

    The truth will out:

    “Beneficiaries of the covert Vatican accounts include Barack Obama, Michelle Obama and each of the Obama children, Michelle Obama’s mother, all the Bushes and the Clintons, including Chelsea Clinton, Joe Biden, Timothy Geithner, Janet Napolitano, several US Senators, including Mitch McConnell, several US Congressmen including John Boehner, several US Military Chiefs of Staff, the US Provost Marshal, the US Judge Advocate General, the US Supreme Court Chief Justice, John Roberts, several US Judges, the Pope, and several cardinals.”

    ‘Course, this is old news. But birthers are always ahead of the news curve (because they make stuff up).

  41. Arthur says:

    Publius: Second hint: What part of the world do you think the next Pope is likely to come from? Could it be… Africa?

    Three popes have come from Africa. If Obama appoints a Kenyan as pope that would be four. Four divided by three is less than two. Obama has served less than two terms. Two is greater than one, but one comes before two. Obama is often referred to as “the One.”

  44. I’ve been writing on the Internet and blogging for over 20 years. At some point, I got a little practiced at it. Even so, my writing isn’t nearly as tight and well-organized as a good professional writer.

    I have met a number of “Obots” in person, and had quite candid discussions with them. Nobody on the web sites we all know and love is betting paid to rebut the birthers.

    Legally, yes, but the commute is a killer.

  46. The article that Birther Reports quotes doesn’t even get the name of the organization correct in this phony story. It is “Organizing for America” and not “Organizing for Obama”. This appears to be nothing but fabricated claptrap from an “anonymous source in the DHS” similar to the Ulsterman nonsense articles that I am sure that SCOTT E has bought into hook line and sinker.

    I saw it already and so did everyone else. In fact, Paula, Obama’s “documentation to be eligible for president” is the first and ONLY US president for whom you’ve seen any documentation at all as a candidate. No previous president in history had every released his birth certificate to the public prior to taking office.

    Why are you stating lies?”

    Another totally asinine comment made by what can be viewed as an Obot and a racist who voted color and not law… isn’t that a shame on him?

    A number of PHD con law professionals have made the analysis of the “Natural Born Citizen” phrase, and have defined the phrase as requiring TWO citizen parents. If the “racist” Obots on this blog can’t understand the PHD con law professors, then they need to be sent to a re-education camp or be removed as officers in American courts, if the commenters on this blog are lawyers.

    The ‘illegal’ in the White House created the NBC challenge on his own and with the other co-conspirators who believed that they could ‘beat the man’ aka America’s governing principles.

    The illegal in the White House and/or his co-conspirators created the following:

    2 so called proofs of birth

    Fraudulent bar liscense application using a false name and denying that the ‘miscreat’ had any other name.

    Phony SSN number that belonged to someone else, and two relatives, an aunt and uncle who both have phony SSN numbers in Ma.

    Swearing to his lies under oath

    Mentors who mentored the illegal and who are noted criminals that are still wanted by the FBI.

    The Obot cries of birthers being racist which is an attempt of the Obot’s part to discredit the obvious facts that exist to prove that the illegal in the WH is a FRAUD.

    The racist who want proof that the person sitting in America’s house is an NBC citizen are also PHD skilled Americans.
    One them hates the White Guy illegally sitting in as a Commander In Chief and another is a democrat and a democratic office candidate…. and lawyer named Berg.

    The White House miscreant has something to hide… no doubt about it.. and he has expended millions to hide his FRAUD of collecting voter funds of 750 million or more while being ineligible for the office he now , illegally occupies.
    http://wp.me/P1a4Br-d4

    SO … THE OBOTS ARE JUST A RE-INCARNATION OF THE MOST DEVIOUS PROPAGANDIST THE WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN… Goebbels another CORRUPT and DEVIOUS PHD that lied to the German people in the same manner that the LIAR in the White House is LYING to the American people.

    Thei Obots who post here state that there isn’t a requirement to have any identifying documents to be a POTUS… What ‘crap’ that is! The society invented systems to be able to mange a nation but these DEVIOUS worthless comments made herein attempt to apply laws from 100’s of years ago to todays legal requirements in America

    The Obots say that American citizens don’t have any legal autority to see the ‘illegals’ eligibility proofs… and make every attempt to deny the IMPLIED right that they have to assure their government is functioning according to the SUPREME law.., the peoples law.
    The American citizens derive their IMPLIED rights from the EXPRESSED NBC requirement…

    Anyone who would accept the WH ‘miscreants’ story can’t be considered to be a true American.

  50. In normal English usage “PHD con law professors” refers to some number greater than one.

    The only law professor I know of who agrees with this crank theory is Herb Titus, who makes a religious argument (and a pretty weak one) based on the Bible, not the Constitution. Of course Titus is an official with an opposition political party.

    So who is the second one?

    Obots are not propagandists, they are debunkers. You are the bunk.

    UNBELIEVABLE!: A number of PHD con law professionals have made the analysis of the “Natural Born Citizen” phrase, and have defined the phrase as requiring TWO citizen parents. If the “racist” Obots on this blog can’t understand the PHD con law professors, then they need to be sent to a re-education camp or be removed as officers in American courts, if the commenters on this blog are lawyers.

    First. Yes. I am a lawyer. I graduated from a T14 law school, in fact, unlike a certain mail order attorney we all love.

    Second. What exactly is a “PHD con law professional/professor”? No such thing. People don’t get PhDs in Con-law. There is a degree called a Doctor of Juridical Science, but those are exceedingly rare, even among academics. The vast majority of law school faculty have JDs…the same degree that every lawyer has coming out of law school in the US. Even most academics don’t bother getting the DJS. It really serves little purpose. I’m guessing you wouldn’t be able to name a single person with a DJS off the top of your head (I can’t), and certainly not a single one that agrees with your nut-bag theory.

    Third. If “a number” came up with this nutty theory, feel free to list them. I know of only one person remotely associated with academia that adopts that theory, and as mentioned before, that is Herb Titus…and well, to put it politely, his theories are anything but main stream. To put not-so-politely, everyone else considers him to be firmly in the crank catagory these days.

    And to find the universally accepted definition of Natural Born Citizen, I need to go no further than my handy-dandy Black’s Law Dictionary. And just for fun, I have both the 6th ed. (pub 1992) and the 9th ed. (pub. 2009). Neither has a requirement for 2 parent citizens.

    9th ed.: “A person born within the jurisdiction of a national government.”

    6th ed.: “Persons who are born within the jurisdiction of a national government, i.e., in its teritorial limits, or those born of citizens temporarily residing abroad. See Jus soli; naturalization clause”

    Seeing as you are a lawyer, it should be easy for you to show where in 17th century English common law it was held or ruled that native-birth sufficed to make a natural born subject?

    Perhaps you can show where Black’s Law Dictionary might have found it?

    Here’s what I get from 17th century English common law…

    “Lord Coke – Calvin’s case…

    “And it is to be observed, that it is nec coelum, nec solum,54 neither the climate nor the soyl, but ligeantia and obedientia that make the subject born”

    Apparently 17th century English common law, required a native-born child to be born under the allegiance of a subject and expressly excluded native-born as sufficient to make a natural born subject.

    Can you explain that?

    Oh, and btw, truth is not found by what might be considered as main stream or by popular belief.

    Here, this might help ….

    “By the common law of England, every person born within the dominions of the Crown, no matter whether of English or of foreign parents, and, in the latter case, whether the parents were settled, or merely temporarily sojourning in the country, was an English subject; save only the children of foreign ambassadors (who were excepted because their fathers carried their own nationality with them), or a child born to a foreigner during the hostile occupation of any part of the territories of England. No effect appears to have been given to descent as a source of nationality.” 1869 “Nationality: or, The law relating to subjects and aliens, considered with a view to future legislation”

    Ted Nugent to be GOP lawmaker’s State of the Union guest

    Last year, “Cat Scratch Fever” rocker Ted Nugent made headlines when he branded President Barack Obama as “evil” and “America-hating,” and described him and Democrats as coyotes who should be shot. On Tuesday, Nugent will attend Obama’s State of the Union address as a guest of Republican Texas Rep. Steve Stockman.

    “I am excited to have a patriot like Ted Nugent joining me in the House Chamber to hear from President Obama,” Stockman said in a statement. “After the address I’m sure Ted will have plenty to say.”

    Having plenty to say is what got The Nuge in hot water in April 2012 at a National Rifle Association convention. His controversial comments even rated the outspoken gun-rights advocate a visit from the Secret Service.

    At that gathering, Nugent had declared, “If Barack Obama becomes the president in November, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year.”

    Nugent praised NRA members, but warned that if they did not “get everybody in your lives to clean house in this vile, evil, America-hating administration, I don’t even know what you’re made out of.”

    “We need to ride into that battlefield and chop their heads off in November. Any questions?”

    He added, “If the coyote’s in your living room, pissing on your couch, it’s not the coyote’s fault. It’s your fault for not shooting him.” And he denounced the administration as “criminals” and said a Democratic victory in November would mean “we’ll be a suburb of Indonesia next year”—an apparent reference to Obama’s boyhood time there.

  57. MichaelN says:

    gorefan: Are you saying Chief Justice Cockburn is wrong and you know the law better than him?

    Cockburn doesn’t disagree with Lord Coke, he simply says it a different way.

    I said…

    Can anyone here show where in 17th century English common law it was held or ruled that native-birth sufficed to make a natural born subject?

    I would like to know where the Framers would have found such a rule or holding.

    You might notice that Cockburn failed to mention and make clear that all those who were included as parents, whose children were natural born subjects, were in fact themselves “SUBJECTS”, so that their children being born under their allegiance, could be natural born subjects.

    From Calvin’s case…

    “There be regulary (unlesse it be in special cases) three incidents to a subject born. 1. That the parentsbe under the actual obedience of the king.
    2. That the place of his birth be within the king’s dominion.
    And 3. the timeof his birth is chiefly to be considered;”

    Basically, the 17th century ECL held that if dad was not a subject (in England everyone in the realm was a subject except foreign diplomats, royalty and enemy invaders) then his children cannot be subjects, even if native-born, because they would not be born under the allegiance of a subject and would thus be alien-born.

    Native-birth was not the criteria for determining whether one was natural born subject.

    You cite to the ECL if you say otherwise.

    Quoting what others say about it proves nothing and only demonstrates variations of the same theme.

    Let’s here it straight from the horses mouth, straight from an ECL court ruling or decision.

    Can you do that?

    Here’s some more verbatim from the very same benchmark case ruling/holding which was cited by Justice Horace Gray in the WKA case showing that native-birth was not sufficient to make a natural born subject…

    “And it is to be observed, that it is nec coelum, nec solum,54 neither the climate nor the soyl, but ligeantia and obedientia that make the subject born: for if enemies should come into the realm, and possess a town or fort, and have issue there, that issue is no subject to the King of England, though he be born upon his soyl, and under his meridian, for that he was not born under the ligeance of a subject, nor under the protection of the King.”

    “The place is observable, but so as many times ligeance or obedience without any place within the king’s dominions may make a subject born, but any place within the king’s dominions may make a subject born, but any place within the king’s dominions without obedience can never produce a natural subject.”

    “But the time of his birth is of the essence of a subject born; for he cannot be a subject to the king of England, unlesse at the time of his birth he was under the ligeance and obedience of the king.”

    This next quote reiterates the rule that one can be native-born yet an alien-born.

    “An alien born is of foreign birth OR foreign allegiance

  58. MichaelN says:

    Where precisely would the Framers have found a 17th century English common law ruling or holding that native-birth sufficed to make a natural born subject?

    Answer: NOWHERE ………… it’s not there………… English common law did NOT rule or hold that native-birth sufficed to make a natural born subject, in fact Lord Coke emphasized on numerous occasions in Calvin’s case, that native-birth did not make a “subject born”.

    So what “common law” could it have been which the SCOTUS in the Minor v Happersett court relied on, where a US natural born citizen was one born in US to US citizen parents, yet held doubts as to whether a native-born child in the US, of alien parentage was even a citizen at all?

    What common law was that?

    And it was not one of the litigants who introduced the the mention of these doubts, it was the SCOTUS, and furthermore the SCOTUS saw merit in the doubts, by stating that the doubts had yet to be solved.

  59. Scientist says:

    MichaelN: the SCOTUS saw merit in the doubts, by stating that the doubts had yet to be solved.

    The voters resolved the doubts, as is their right. Doesn’t your country have a Prime Minister who was born in Wales? Nothing wrong with that.

  60. I thought I banned you. Well, no harm done–I have now.

    The answer is Calvin’s Case, and you were given free reign to argue this before, and all you proved was that you can’t read and you don’t listen.

    Go away.

    MichaelN: Can anyone here show where in 17th century English common law it was held or ruled that native-birth sufficed to make a natural born subject?

  61. gorefan says:

    MichaelN: Native-birth was not the criteria for determining whether one was natural born subject.

    Justice Cockburn also said ,

    “Nationality by birth or origin depends, according to the law of some nations, on the place of birth; according to that of others on the nationality of the parents. In many countries both elements exist, one or other, however, predominating. Thus, by the law of England, the status of a subject depends generally on the place of birth”

    MichaelN: Where precisely would the Framers have found a 17th century English common law ruling

    Where precisely would Chief Justice Swift have gotten that?

    “The children of aliens born in this state are considered as natural born subjects and have the same rights with the rest of the citizens.” Zephaniah Swift, 1795,

    Could he be paraphrasing Blackstone? “THE children of aliens, born here in England, are, generally speaking, natural-born subjects, and entitled to all the privileges of such”

    Where precisely did Rawle get it?

    “Therefore every person born within the United States, its territories or districts, whether the parents are citizens or aliens, is a natural born citizen in the sense of the Constitution, and entitled to all the rights and privileges appertaining to that capacity. “ 1825, “A View of the Constitution of the United States”

    I assume you mean 18th century. Blackstone plainly states that native birth was sufficient.

    See Blackstone Commentaries, published in 1765: http://press-pubs.uchicago.edu/founders/documents/a1_8_4_citizenships1.html

    Interestingly, Blackstone notes that in contrast to English common law, French law requires parents to be citizens. “The children of aliens, born here in England, are, generally speaking, natural-born subjects, and entitled to all the privileges of such. In which the constitution of France differs from ours; for there, by their jus albinatus, if a child be born of foreign parents, it is an alien.”

    No offense…. I’ve had good and bad experiences with PHD’s and some are better suited to be in a closet with their specialty, and when they are needed then the ‘normal prudent’ person can open the closet door to listen to what they have to say about their ‘specialty’.

    NOTE: the comment
    “is a natural born citizen in the sense of the Constitution,” and it does not say the NONSENSE reading of the Constitution.

    The MAJOR problem with maintaining the CITIZENS right to AMEND the Constitution is that the BRAIN DEAD in Congress…. want other than NBC qualified citizens to be a POTUS. They are pushing Rubio, Jindal, and in the past wanted Schwarzenegger, but Schwarzenegger told them to AMEND the Constitution if they wanted him be a POTUS. Schwarzenegger isn’t a PHD either and he knew that he was born in Austria…. I believe.

    In the lawsuit he filed, Keyes v. Bowen, which was an Obama eligibility case, the parent requirement was not mentioned.

    In statements I found by Keyes, he made some remarks saying that “some part of the record” and “some people” thought that a 2-parent requirement existed, but that the courts hadn’t addressed the question head on. That is, he wants to create uncertainly without committing himself.

    So, do you know precisely where Keyes committed himself that the Constitutional requirement is 2-citizen parents, are you just lying birther-trash?

  84. Someone asked what Apuzzo had been up to lately. He apparently is still a reader of OCT. He left the following comment on the latest article at his blog last month:

    Dr. Conspiracy just wrote an article on his blog which includes the following passage:

    “Judge Bent in Vermont, commenting in his decision of Paige v. Obama about such arguments from attorney Mario Apuzzo said:

    ‘Mr. Apuzzo argues that originalist thinking as to the meaning of the phrase “natural born citizen” was consistent with an intent on the part of the authors of the constitution to adopt a jus sanguinis citizenship model rather than the jus soli model of the English common law…. While Mr. Apuzzo mightily attempts to distinguish the conclusion of the United States Supreme Court in Wing Kim Ark, that English common law was adopted as to which model of citizenship was intended by the original framers, this court concludes that his arguments are, in the face of such a decision, academic only.’

    The Court in essence rejected an argument from primary sources in favor of precedent. The Court deferred to the expertise of the Supreme Court, rather than reading newspaper articles from 1787, historical cases about shipping disputes, or legal essays from Switzerland.”

    Judge Bent and Dr. Conspiracy find that my “natural born Citizen” “‘arguments are, in the face of such a decision, academic only.’” As always, the devil is in the details. In addressing those details, we have to inquire just what does “such a decision” say? Is that not the question if we are to correctly apply the Wong Kim Ark holding to any given case? We also have to know what these “precedents” really say.

    Both Judge Bent and Dr. Conspiracy beg the question on what Wong Kim Ark really held, if anything, regarding what law and rule the Founders and Framers relied upon to define a “natural-born citizen,” rather than just a “citizen,” and what definition they gave to that specific clause. Dr. Conspiracy further begs the question by assuming that these “precedents” support a definition of a “natural born Citizen” that is contrary to mine.

    The issue is whether Wong Kim Ark held anything regarding that clause versus whether its holding is limited to a “citizen of the United States” at birth under the Fourteenth Amendment. But without addressing my arguments, both Judge Bent and Dr. Conspiracy just state a conclusion which assumes that Wong Kim Ark relied on English common law and held Wong to be an Article II “natural born Citizen.” But on close analysis, we learn that Wong did no such thing. On the contrary, Wong Kim Ark confirmed Minor’s American common law definition of a “natural-born citizen” and held that Wong, the son of domiciled and resident aliens born in the country, was just as much a “citizen” as the “natural-born citizen” child born in the country to citizen parents, and therefore, by virtue of being born in the country, a “citizen of the United States” at birth under the Fourteenth Amendment, but not an Article II “natural born Citizen.” A close reading of Wong Kim Ark shows that the Court did not confound and conflate a Fourteenth Amendment “citizen of the United States” at birth with an Article II “natural born Citizen,” which is what Judge Bent did when reading and applying the decision and when using the phrase “model of citizenship,” which fails to distinguish between a “citizen” and a “natural-born citizen.”

    The issue is also what did these “precedents” really say? Neither Judge Bent nor Dr. Conspiracy tells us. Rather, they just assume without demonstration that these precedents support their position and not mine. But we should all know by now that just saying something is so does not make it so.

    Hence, my arguments are not “academic only” “in the face of such a decision,” for Judge Bent does not demonstrate what Wong Kim Ark held (not just stating what it held) nor did the decision hold what Judge Bent says it held. My argument is also not “academic” for allegedly being foreclosed by any “precedents,” for neither Judge Bent nor Dr. Conspiracy shows what those precedents said and how they support their position rather than mine.

    Apuzzo remains in deep denial that no judge or magistrate who has read his nonsense buys into it even a little bit. Real judges in real courts know that if there was any doubt about the meaning of the term “natural born citizen” it was settled in 1898. He pathetically writes on his blog as if someone who counts is actually going agree with him.

    with a curious ending …. a list of links to proofs for Obama, and and list with no entries for McCain! Poor McCain. Considering the opening (below), that’s relatively throwing him under the bus.

    Had McCain won, there would have been a leftwing birfer movement, if he managed to make himself extremely unpopular, it might have picked up steam. The antiwar crowd would have had a field day calling him Bush3.

    Would so much material have been released about McCain as has been re: Obama? I don’t think so. He’s been a Senator for a loooooong time. If it isn’t out there now ….

    ________________

    “In the 2008 election both major parties nominated candidates whose eligibility is dubious. For Barack Obama the question was whether he was born in Hawaii, which is U.S. soil. For John McCain the question was whether the panama Canal Zone, where he was born, was U.S. soil. It is not, and being born of parents both of whom were U.S. citizens did not make him a “natural-born” citizen, although a statute was later adopted naturalizing such persons at birth.”

    But here we are into a fifth year of birtherism, and not a single criminal case has been filed. Every birther lawyer without exception has instead chosen the civil route, and lost every time. Similarly, the MCCCP has now been sitting on at least some of their “evidence” for more than a year now, and has yet to even pump fake turning it over to any prosecutorial entity

    If I had a dollar for every time they said “Obots are in panic”, I could single-handedly reduce the national debt to zero.

    Whereas the typical run-of-the-mill RWNJ calls rebuttals and criticism “bullying” or “attempting to suppress freedom of speech”.

    Majority Will: No doubt it will be historical revisionism at its birthery finest.

    Here’s a summary of Act 1 from the Commander Taffy Production’s proposed screen play:

    “Over a hill in the stark, empty Afghan landscape two runners emerge dressed in military athletic gear. One is Terry Lakin. As they descend down the hill many more runners follow. Terry talks as he runs, ‘I know I shouldn’t say this but I love it here. I love the Army. I love being useful.’ We see that the runners are participating in a Marathon that Terry helped organize. Terry gets a call at Marathon’s end, reports to duty, treating wounded soldiers. Cut to the Pentagon five years later where Terry is treating still more patients. At the Pentagon he receives orders to re-deploy to Afghanistan as part of president’s ‘surge.’ He tells a colleague that although he would hate to leave his wife and children, he is happy to serve. He returns home, shares news with his Thai-American wife, Pili, and three kids. He is filling out forms to deploy when he sees where he has to provide five copies of his birth certificate. He turns to computer and reviews article after article, video after video, of president refusing to provide his birth certificate. He calls an officer friend, ‘What should I do?’ Friend says don’t make waves, but Terry reminds him, ‘We’ve sworn an officer’s oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.'”

    There’s so much that’s wrong about this . . . but I’m too sick of birther b.s. to even begin.

    Boy, I’ll say. I haven’t been to that site in many months. I was taken aback by the hysterical Christianity:

    “Terry Lakin is a Christian man who strongly resembles his Lord – Christ, who also received not only whipping but mocking, spitting, and hissing from Satan and from the very people who were being saved from Satan by the sacrifices of the One they mocked.

    “Terry Lakin was not able to save this country, but it wasn’t because he failed to try. Though the rest of us haven’t given to the extent that he did, we have done what we could and been mocked and despised for it. The death of this country is not on our hands. One Day the truth will be known; some of us eagerly look forward to that Day.”

  118. The Magic M says:

    Reality Check (quoting Zullo): We were really close but some things got in the way […] and put a damper on it. I can’t really elaborate on that right now.

    Another hint this is anything but a proper law enforcement operation. A real investigator would have no problem stating something like “we had someone who appeared a credible witness to the crime but later found evidence he was lying”.
    A birfer “investigator” of course has to stay on the conspiracy party line “we are NEVER wrong”.

  135. Lucas, wouldn’t your time be better spent providing copies of your passport stamps and travel documents to prove you were actually in Kenya when you claim to have purchased the POSFKBC?

    Why would I care about your IP address? Be careful, you are coming across like a paranoid conspiracy maniac.

    You can take the ‘Obot/Birther Challenge</b?' right here in this open thread. You don't specifically need to share your findings at my blog, you can list them right here on Dr Conspiracy's website.

  137. First, I might surprise you but I do not agree with the person who wrote that analysis and sent it to Doc. The kerning of the “ny” on your fake certificate may or may not be there on a real document if an original exists. I think it is a weak argument and suffers from the same flaws as Paul Irey’s analysis. The “ny” is in an area that has curvature from the document not being flat on the scanner or other reasons. When you try to blow up letters from images and measure small distances pixelation and other effects from one or more scans can cause errors.

    The fundamental problems you have never addressed are still there and would cause any objective observer to dismiss the PSOFBC as a forgery without any further analysis. I will list them:

    – The document was supplied by you, a convicted forger who tried to sell it.
    – The name of the hospital administrator is misspelled.
    – The name of the hospital administrator is the wrong person.
    – There is no proof you were in Kenya when you said you were.
    – There is no proof Ann Dunham was in Kenya in August 1961
    – There is no proof father Barack Obama was in Kenya at the time of the birth and there is proof he was in Hawaii days before his son was born,
    – There is rock solid, indisputable proof that Barack Obama was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961. This proof includes both the short form and long form birth certificates, verification by Hawaii DOH officials, newspaper birth announcements, and recollections by persons still alive who remember accounts of the birth

  138. Thomas Brown says:

    Lucas D. Smith: Why would I care about your IP address?

    After you lied about having a document from Kenya, why should anyone pay any attention to anything you say, ever? Liars never go straight. Once a liar, always a liar.

    Please take a few minutes to review my new masterful and gripping report at the WOBIK blog!

  141. I could add to the list I presented earlier. For example,

    – There is no chain of custody for the POSFKBC. Even if you, Lucas Smith, could prove you really were in Kenya in 2009 and actually paid good money for the certificate the most likely explanation is that the scammer got scammed.
    – On the other hand the issuing authority for both the President’s Hawaiian SFBC and the LFBC have confirmed they did in fact issue the certificates.

  142. Reality Check: – There is no chain of custody for the POSFKBC.

    In typical obot fashion you create the facts as you go. There is an extensive, if not exhaustive, chain of custody for the birth certificate:

    Lucas:

    When are you going to get it through your head, no one with two brain cells is going to believe anything a convicted forger like you has to say?

  147. Daniel says:

    Lucas D. Smith: In typical obot fashion you create the facts as you go.

    You’re a convicted forger. Tell me that isn’t the very definition of “create facts as you go”?

  148. Lucas, I actually believe you sent a copy of your forgery to Mario Apuzzo. Where is the letter from Kenya or the hospital similar to all the Hawaii verifications? You idea of “chain of custody” is laughable.

  149. Reality Check:
    Lucas, I actually believe you sent a copy of your forgery to Mario Apuzzo. Where is the letter from Kenya or the hospital similar to all the Hawaii verifications? You idea of “chain of custody” is laughable.

    It seems that you tend to believe things which are not true. I didn’t send a ‘copy’ of the 2009 certified copy of Barack Obama’s 1961 CPGH birth certificate. Why would I do that? A copy is available, via the internet, to all human inhabitants of planet earth granted that they have internet access.

    I sent Apuzzo, and other individuals, the tangible 2009 document, itself, (which you refer to as “your forgery”).

    I don’t have letters from “Kenya” which you seem to believe that I should have. Just what is a letter ‘from Kenya’? You sound like one of those poor degenerates in the penitentiary who go around suing names of government buildings.

    I’ll get Kenya on the horn real soon here and see if I can’t get a letter or two from ‘Kenya’ to supplement the chain of custody.

    Lastly, I do have documentation from the hospital in Kenya, I’m surprised you missed it:

    http://wasobamaborninkenya.com/1961%20Kenyan%20Birth%20Certificate%20of%20Barack%20Hussein%20Obama%20II,%20Copy.pdf

  150. So you sent the real forgery to Mario? Whoop-dee-doo. 😆

  151. roadburner says:

    Reality Check:
    First, I might surprise you but I do not agree with the person who wrote that analysis and sent it to Doc. The kerning of the “ny” on your fake certificate may or may not be there on a real document if an original exists. I think it is a weak argument and suffers from the same flaws as Paul Irey’s analysis. The “ny” is in an area that has curvature from the document not being flat on the scanner or other reasons. When you try to blow up letters from images and measure small distances pixelation and other effects from one or more scans can cause errors.

    The fundamental problems you have never addressed are still there and would cause any objective observer to dismiss the PSOFBC as a forgery without any further analysis. I will list them:

    – The document was supplied by you, a convicted forger who tried to sell it.
    – The name of the hospital administrator is misspelled.
    – The name of the hospital administrator is the wrong person.
    – There is no proof you were in Kenya when you said you were.
    – There is no proof Ann Dunham was in Kenya in August 1961
    – There is no proof father Barack Obama was in Kenya at the time of the birth and there is proof he was in Hawaii days before his son was born,
    – There is rock solid, indisputable proof that Barack Obama was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961. This proof includes both the short form and long form birth certificates, verification by Hawaii DOH officials, newspaper birth announcements, and recollections by persons still alive who remember accounts of the birth

    don’t forget also that the date format was american, not english.

    oops! the biggest screw-up, eh lucas?

  152. Any one here every heard of university style debate? Please get a grip people, I’ve seen more disciplined attention spans within a school of goldfish.

    Read my report, take the Obot/Birther Challenge and please do try to answer objectively.

    You can place your answers here on the Dr.’s website if you are filled with paranoid and conspiratorial delusions that your IP addresses will be ‘harvested’ by the all powerful and nefarious, I, The, He, Lucas D. Smith.

    Thanks, pals.

    Can we assume you are being deliberately obtuse? You have no proof that the document you claim is Obama’s Kenyan birth certificate, came from where you say it came from. That is chain of custody. For example, the State of Hawaii issued an official announcement regarding their providing two copies of President Obama’s LFBC to his attorney.

    You can’t show the document that you are claiming came from Kenya as proof that the document came from Kenya. Reality doesn’t work that way. Of course you will now simply say that, as you didn’t obtain it through official channels, no such documentation is available. But, of course, that is simply a means for you to cover your lies. Since you don’t have any document from any Kenyan official or the hospital you say you got it from, just show us your airplane tickets or boarding pass to show you were in Kenya at that time, or at least your passport stamp. You know, some sort of corroboration. Otherwise, there is absolutely no reason anyone with at least reasonable intelligence would believe you.

  154. justlw says:

    I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if hundreds of petitions suddenly cried out for consideration and were summarily denied. I conjecture something completely unsurprising has happened.

  155. I am surprised that convicted forger, he, Lucas Smith in over three years has been unable to forge travel documents to prove he was in Kenya when he says he bought the POSFKBC, you know the one with the misspelled name of the chief administrator who wasn’t the chief administrator? Do you think this is a result of laziness, ineptness or both?

    Supreme Court To Conference On Obama Eligibility Today
    February 15, 2013 By Suzanne Eovaldi

    Today, February 15, 2013, Attorney Orly Taitz brings her request to move the Obama eligibility challenge from conference to the oral hearing stage at the US Supreme Court. She is moving forward in spite of the fact that four African-American Supreme Court clerks refused to allow Taitz to see the signature of Justice Anthony Kennedy, who denied her petition originally. “But I resubmitted to Justice Roberts, and he sent it to the conference,” Taitz said.

    I seem to have missed this “Yes, Ma is a racist” element of this story until now. Is there some “ethnicity of Supreme Court clerks” web site out there?

  157. Reality Check:

    ok lucas, why did you screw up so badly and use an american date format instead of an english one on your POSFKBC?

    i’m dying to know!

    Why wouldn’t you let Jerome Corsi analyse your fake document?

  161. Majority Will says:

    Dr Kenneth Noisewater: Why wouldn’t you let Jerome Corsi analyse your fake document?

    Maybe he tried to forge and cash bad checks in Corsi’s name. How many convictions is this identity thief up to now?

  162. Dr Kenneth Noisewater: Why wouldn’t you let Jerome Corsi analyse your fake document?

    Not once in my life have I stolen, or attempted to steal, someone’s identity. You are making things up.

  164. American Mzungu says:

    Dr Kenneth Noisewater: Why wouldn’t you let Jerome Corsi analyse your fake document?

    I would be interested in the evaluation of the Kenyan birth certificate by Misha. I have great confidence in his judgment about such matters. 🙂

  165. The way a document examiner works is to compare a questioned document (here the Smith certificate) to similar type of document which is not questioned. Given that no one seems to have an unquestioned birth certificate from the Coast General Hospital circa 1961, a copy of which was recently issued, there’s not going to be any forensic document analysis done of the Smith certificate.

    What would a forensic analysis say? Yes this is a photocopy. Yes it has a rubber stamp. Yes it has a raised seal. Any office supply store can provide those items.

    We can, and have, discussed the internal evidence from the document, which can be done from any clear copy and I think at this point that is all that can reasonably be done.

    Lucas D. Smith: I sent Apuzzo, and other individuals, the tangible 2009 document, itself, (which you refer to as “your forgery”).

  166. justlw says:

    In case anyone was on the edge of their seats waiting for this: orders from today’s conference have been published. Do I even have to say whether Noonan is in there?

  167. Majority Will says:

    Lucas D. Smith: Not once in my life have I stolen, or attempted to steal, someone’s identity.You are making things up.

    Please read the report and participate in the Obot/Birther Challenge. Thank you.

    Who’s name did you sign on the checks you were convicted of forging?

    Using another person’s name is stealing an identity. Your rap sheet is long. Your credibility is non-existent. You’re a sloppy con artist with no conscience.

    You’re making things up for profit and evidently you suck at it.

  168. Dr. Conspiracy: The birther blogs are still making stuff up, but nothing particularly interesting…. The birthers will soon be folding up their tents and going home: any day now…The pond is shrinking…To take up the slack in my time due to the shrinking of the pond, I have started volunteering to record public domain audio books at LibriVox.org.

    How about you, Dr. Conspiracy? Are you going to participate in my Obama/Birther Challenge? According to your recent and relatively recent remarks no one in birtherland is doing much and birthers arr folding up their tents going home and times are so hard at your OCT website that you now spend time recording audio books?

    Your are the guy who started the ‘typography’ attack (what you did can hardly be called a debate). So are you going to finish it now or are you going to just pretend it never happened and keeping crying that theres nothing much to report these days in old birtherland other than hot mama Orly Taitz shaking her bottom around DC and your long winter nights recording audio books without stipend and cracking jokes on Russian people bout being leery of nation which they were at a cold-war with for 44 years.

  169. Majority Will: Who’s name did you sign on the checks you were convicted of forging?

    Using another person’s name is stealing an identity. Your rap sheet is long. Your credibility is non-existent. You’re a sloppy con artist with no conscience.

    You’re making things up for profit and evidently you suck at it.

    Have a little integrity, and if you are going to accuse me of identity left then please cite the evidence.

    Have you had the time, and do you have the discipline, to read through the comments I’ve posted today and to review the replies from your cohorts?

    Nearly all replies, aside from a single semi-attempt (at least he made a half effort though the report seems to gone over his head) at university style debate made by your cohort “Reality Check”, have been ad hominem attacks, mocking remarks, sarcasm, sneering, sexual diatribes, name calling.

    It seems that you and your cohorts are not able to carry a out a serious university style debate.

    I read that you it is your opinion that I should not be permitted to participate here in the comments because of some background that you refer to. I believe that some very famous person once wrote something like, if you pay everyone what they deserve, would anyone ever escape a whipping?

    Dr. Conspiracy wrote, with the aid of a furtive and seemingly delusive and self-proclaimed pressman (calls himself “Sean” and has a friend named “Howling Coyote”) with a curriculum vitae supposedly dating to the 1950s, that Obama’s 1961 CPGH Kenyan certificate of birth is a forgery on grounds that the document contains, in their opinion, an example of kerning in which the descender (i.e., part of a letter that extends below the level of its base, e.g, the bottoms of g,j,y,q and p) of the letter y hangs under the letter n in the word Kenya.

    It is the position of Dr. Conspiracy, ‘Sean’ and ‘Howling Coyote’ that such kerning was not yet possible in 1961.

    I might have considered participating if your entire premise wasn’t based on the two lies bolded in the quote from your “challenge.” The good doctor merely reported what Sean wrote and offered it up for discussion. I was unable to find anywhere in the discussion that he actually took that position.

  201. American Mzungu says:

    As Doc C pointed out in the “Big Fish” thread, the birther ponds are drying up. He, Lucas Smith, had a blog that was never more than a puddle, but it has nearly dried up. He’s tried various attacks on Doc C and the OTC participants to get some action on his site, but nothing has worked. He resorts to coming on this site and pimping his site, trying to lure people over there to participate in his “challenge.” When that fails he wants us to engage him in some sort of debate about his “challenge” here. It’s not working.

    I liked the image of Lucas as a fish flopping around out of water, but I like even more the image that Doc C invoked about chickens flopping around with their heads cut off.

  202. Scientist says:

    I noticed the debate thread is closed, so I hope Doc will forgive me for responding here.
    Bob Gard asked: “How many of the presidents who served from the expiration of the grandfather clause in the presidential eligibility cause until now were unquestionably natural-born citizens defined as citizens born of two American citizens? My answer offhand is all except two. Was that coincidence? Did the Electoral College and later the people know instinctively? There were multitudes of native born citizens in those times with foreign parents or just one American citizen parent. In view of such high numbers, what was the probability of the occurrence of so many presidents with two-citizen parents being elected to office without some ulterior motive? Was it because our country did not have so many immigrants proportionally as now? Do our immigrants outwardly resist this definition of natural-born citizen because they desire to change our country in their own image? Or was it instinct as to the meaning of natural-born citizen?”

    There have been 37 Presidents since the grandfather clause and 2 did not have two citizen parents, which is 5.5%. The ratio of foreign born persons in the population has fluctuated over time between about 6% to as high as 15% in the late 19th century, so the representation of their children in the White House is not statistically different from their representation in the general population, given the small sample size. I also note that 2 Presidents had foreign born mothers, Wilson whose mother was British and Hoover whose mother was Canadian, and under today’s law they would not be automatically naturalized by their marriage. So perhaps we could count them also. Either way, the statistics do not support Bob’s conclusion.

    But the fatuity of Bob’s question, as with his entire argument, is shown by his ignoring several obvious confounding variables. First, the majority of post-1800 immigrants were non-Protestant, mostly Catholic, with some Jews, Muslims, Hindus and others. And it took until 1960 to have a non-Protestant President, because the Protestant majority was suspicious of Catholics and other non-Protestants, who would have had a hard time winning outside of a few places like New York. Second, most immigrants were poor and were unable to give their children the elite education that most Presidents received. They did not have the family connections like the Roosevelts, Tafts and others who rose to high office. Third, we have not yet had a woman President. Would Bob conclude from that that they are barred by the Constitution? I suspect Bob might, but I wonder what Mrs. Bob would have to say about that.

  209. Dave B. says:

    Another quote from Mr. McElwee’s paper, which 00Bob likes so well:

    “In Osborn v. Bank 22 US (9 Wheat) 238, l.c. 827, Chief Justice Marshall said:
    A naturalized citizen is indeed made a citizen under an act of Congress, but the act does not proceed to give, to regulate, or to prescribe his capacities. He becomes a member of the society, possessing all the rights of a native citizen, and standing, in the view of the constitution, on the footing of a native. The constitution does not authorize Congress to enlarge or abridge those rights. The simple power of the national Legislature, is to prescribe a uniform rule of naturalization, and the exercise of this power exhausts it, so far as respects the individual. The constitution then takes him up, and, among other rights, extends to him the capacity of suing in the Courts of the United States, precisely under the same circumstances under which a native might sue. He is distinguishable in nothing from a native citizen, except so far as the constitution makes the distinction. The law makes none.”

    So the naturalized citizen is distinguishable in nothing from a native citizen, except so far as the Constitution makes the distinction. Which is…
    That’s right in the middle of page 15877.

    Doc, I’m a little bit stuck on your “Appeal to the debate jury” right now:
    http://www.obamaconspiracy.org/2013/02/the-great-debatekibitzers-edition-part-2/#comment-249294
    Returning to the point to which your question:

    “Does ANYBODY here see any validity to Bob’s “House reasoning” claims on pages 15875 – 15880 in the House record? Is there ANYTHING whatever on those pages to indicate any consent by the House of Representatives to anything appeared there.”

    was directed– and putting aside for a moment the many, many ways Mr. McElwee’s paper contradicts 00Bob’s super-secret Vattel-to-Jay-to-Scott triple play definition of natural born citizen– Mr. Dowdy makes it plain that he’s merely offering an additional reference material:

    “As it is not otherwise available, and may be of interest to the Members of this Congress and others, I would incorporate in the Record as a part of my remarks, that it may be easily available for consideration with other dissertations on the subject, to shed whatever light it merits:”

    after which Mr. Dowdy submits Mr. McElwee’s paper. Mr. Dowdy doesn’t even endorse Mr. McElwee’s paper among those “other dissertations on the subject”.
    00Bob says “The record on page 15880 finished the House’s reasoning: “Mr. Romney was born an alien and was naturalized automatically by Act of Congress.” That’s not the “House’s reasoning” by any stretch of the imagination; it’s another quotation from Mr. McElwee’s paper.
    And if you look at the next column over, you’ll find Mr. McElwee says this:

    “To summarize, a natural born citizen of the United States, as that term is used in the Constitution of the United States, means a citizen born within the territorial limits of the United States and subject to the laws of the United States at the time of such birth. This does not include children born within the territorial limits of the United States to alien parents who, although present with the consent of the United States, enjoy diplomatic immunity from the laws of the United States, and, as a consequence are not subject to the laws of the United States. Nor would this include children born within the territorial limits of the United States to alien enemy parents in time of War as a part of a hostile military force and, as a consequence, not present with the consent of the United States, and not subject to the laws of the United States. But, this does include children born to alien parents (may I point out the infamous plural –db) who are present within the territorial limits of the United States “in amity” i.e. with the consent of the United States and subject to its laws at the time of birth.”

    So if 00Bob’s so eager to swallow Mr. McElwee’s opinion, I say let him. If he doesn’t want George Romney to be President, I can live with that.

    PS – Please stop calling my telephone number and leaving nasty vile messages. Control yourself.

  229. J.D. Sue says:

    Doc, Bob Gard repeatedly makes reference to Article III Section 2 language and commentary, without understanding–he is interpreting it wrong for the purpose of trying to show the Supreme Court should not be interpreting the Constitution (how ironic that Bob is purportedly qualified to interpret this “plain language” but lawyers and judges are not because we have some liberal agenda…).

    I have responded multiple times to his comments, but he does not reply–instead he just keeps repeating his false interpretation. I think this is an important area for lawyers to chime in on so that it can be properly fleshed out. I will offer some initial comments here.

    Here is the language at issue: “The judicial power shall extend to all cases, in law and equity, arising under this Constitution…”

    (1) Law and Equity: Bob makes a big deal about the terms “in law and equity”, and seems to claim that liberal lawyers improperly use these terms to justify interpreting the law found within the Constitution, and injecting some form of equity “in” the Constitution. I really don’t get where he gets this thesis–it simply is not what lawyers do.

    Originally, in England, the judiciary primarily considered only cases “in Law”, i.e., cases where a judge could decide legal questions and award damages to the winning party. Sometimes, “the law” was not sufficient to work justice, so a party would appeal to the King in his court of equity. As such and thereafter, there were separate courts for law and for equity–today, most of our courts handle both law and equity. Indeed, any single complaint filed in court can contain claims in law and/or in equity. (Examples of equity include injunctions, prohibiting against unjust enrichment, voiding unconscionable contracts, bankruptcy court).

    As such, when Article III refers to “all cases, in law and equity”, it is simply referring to what we all think of as the cases (judiciable disputes between parties) that end up in our courts everyday. All lawyers/judges understand this, so I don’t know what Bob thinks he’s talking about. He points out that Madison noted that our Constitution is unique in that it provides that cases in equity are part of the court’s jurisdiction–I suppose that is because we don’t have a king to appeal to. Anyhow, Bob seems to argue that we misunderstand Article III’s “law and equity” language, and that we wrongly use the language to justify judicial interpretation of the Constitution–including looking for unwritten equitable principles within the Constitution. This is nonsense.

    2) Arising Under v. Arising In: Bob Gard keeps saying that if the framers wanted the Court to interpret the Constitution, Article III would state “arising in this Constitution” and not “arising under this Constitution.” Again, he mistakenly makes assumptions based on his own interpretation of the language. In fact, all cases in law or equity arise “under” something, e.g., under the Constitution, under a statute, under the common law, under principles of equity, etc. (For example, if a local cop subjects me to a false arrest and I decide to sue him, my claims “arise under” the 4th Amendment, the 14th Amendment (which incorporates the bill of rights to state governments), and 42 U.S.C. 1983 (a statute which permits private lawsuits/damages against state government state actors for constitutional violations)–and the court would have to interpret these laws within the context of the facts at bar. It would make no sense if Article III referred to cases arising “in” the Constitution, since there are no cases “in” the Constitution. The phrase “arising under” is familiar to judges and lawyers, but of course it seems to mean something else entirely to Mr. Gard.

    As a final note, there can be no adjudication of any case without interpreting the law under which the case arises (or relying upon precedence that interpreted that language). Perhaps Bob thinks that an “interpretation” is the opposite of “reading plain language”. In fact, all humans are interpreting language all the time.

  230. Dr Kenneth Noisewater: Again how does his letter prove he ever had physical position of your forgery? I don’t see pictures of it in his possession.I don’t see any forensic work done on said forgery.Again you’re baiting and switching.

    Whats all this about baiting and switching? You sound like one of those people who must registered with the local sheriff’s office each time they move to a new home/apartment.

    Are you serious when you say that need to see pictures of Mario Apuzzo holding the birth certificate? And how would attorney Apuzzo be returning the birth certificate to me if he never had it in his physical possession? Is it your position that he was lying?

    You need to seek some outside entertainment provided that that entertainment is not done is a school zone or near a school bus route.

    If you are on the bottle again, as you admitted were so frequently in the past, I’d recommend calling 1(800) 870-3795. While you are at you might also, just to be on the safe side, dial up 1 (800) 448-0440.

    If not, would you at least consider putting down your rotary phone and discontinuing any further calls to my telephone number, unless you are ready for university style debate, because I’m not here just to listen to your desperate pleas for mercy and your stories of being mishandled by others throughout life.

    Lucas why do you project your own problems off onto other people? Only one of us here is a convicted scumbag felon and that’s you. Only one of us here has admitted to having sex with underaged girls and that’s you.

    Of course Mario is lying he does that quite often you’re both con artists. So again your attempt to establish credibility through a bait and switch isn’t convincing anyone.

    Hell you guys expect Obama to mail his long form hawaiian birth certificate to everyone in the US to prove he’s a born US Citizen. So you can’t even hold yourself to the same standard.

    Where did I ever say I was on the bottle? You must have me confused with Mario Apuzzo who is a heavy drunk.

    But hey all these personal insults you throw don’t change the fact that you keep refusing to prove you went to Kenya.

    You should perhaps move to Arizona I heard Sheriff Joe is hiring child molesters such as yourself.

    Don’t start back tracking now, you told me that were on the bottle, on and off, for a great number of years. I hope that you will get help. I wont pray for you though, because I’m not a Christian or a member any other cult.

    You also need some professional help with your head trips, I mean a little conspiratorial thinking might not be too dangerous but when you accuse attorney Maria Apuzzo of send me a letter lying about really sending me the birth certificate…even Dr Conspiracy is looking at you like you are Glenn Beck.

    I also recall that, in the past, Dr. Conspiracy has had to step in and set you straight when you crossed the line between fact and fiction/fantasy.

    Set your bottle of Miller down and lets get to some good old fashion university style debate already.

    Nothing to backtrack since I never said it. It’s funny how everytime you’re asked for proof of the scam you’re running you get off topic and jump straight to personal attacks. Just like a typical conman you get angry and pathetically vicious when people see through your con.

    Obviously all the time you had in the pokey did nothing to rehabilitate you. I have a feeling you’ll be back in the slammer within the next year or two because you’ve proven yourself to be a rather dumb criminal who consistently gets caught.

    I wish I could say I pitied you Lucas but I don’t. You’ll never have the ability of self-introspection to realize where you went wrong in your own life.

    In the end though I notice you still haven’t proven you went to Kenya or that you physically sent the forgery you created to Apuzzo or that he actually had it analyzed. Which is what I originally said that you wouldn’t send it to anyone to have it analyzed.

    You wouldn’t know what a university style debate is as shown by how you react everytime you’re put in a corner over your forgery.

    Please provide proof that you were never on the bottle. You’ve already admitted to it in the past.

    I haven’t been in prison since Christmas Day, 2002, that is more than ten (10) years ago.

    Stop backtracking, it doesn’t look well on an advanced aged woman such as yourself. You said that I hadn’t sent the birth certificate to other ‘birthers’. Its evident that I did and now you switch up (you like that terminology, huh) and backtrack.

    Put the bottle down, its not Miller time just because your life partner is out for a night on the town.

    Get back to me when you’ve had time to review my report. I’d like some feminine input in this debate.

  241. Dr Kenneth Noisewater says:

    Lucas D. Smith: Please provide proof that you were never on the bottle. You’ve already admitted to it in the past.

    Really you talk about University Style debate then want me to go about proving a negative? You claimed I said I was “on the bottle”. I never made such a statement. But since you claim I did it should be easy for you to find that statement somewhere on this site. Good luck.

    Lucas D. Smith: I haven’t been in prison since Christmas Day, 2002, that is more than ten (10) years ago.

    So when your buddy Bruce Steadman said the following back in 2011: “It is with great sadness, on this Wednesday morning, May 26, that I report the following news regarding Lucas Daniel Smith.

    Details are sketchy, but I will pass along to you what little information I have at present. Lucas was arrested and booked Friday, May 20 and is now incarcerated at the Pima County Jail in Tucson, AZ. … I learned of his unfortunate situation early Monday morning, May 23. A small group of individuals, with the potential of being able to help Lucas, were soon informed and have been working behind the scenes these last few days to provide assistance. … I have not had any contact with Lucas. … Word of his incarceration has now started to circulate on the Internet.

    Lucas is facing two charges, the first one requiring a $10,000 ‘secured’ bond, and the second one a $10,000 ‘Cash Only’ bond…. I have received an unconfirmed report that Lucas is being held, at least for partial reasons, as a ‘fugitive from justice from another state’, presumably, Iow”
    That was a lie by your buddy Bruce?

    No it is not evident that you did since there is no pictures of the package with the forgery. All you have is tracking slips from a random package you claim contained your forgery. No proof that is what you sent, no proof it was ever analyzed by Apuzzo. No lie detector test you claimed you would take.

    Get back to me when you’re done lying like the little conman you are. Oh and with proof you ever went to kenya

    I haven’t been in prison since Christmas Day, 2002. You have to be convicted of a crime to go to prison. You are referring to jail (2011). If you need help understanding what the difference is between prison and jail, at least in the USA, you might ask any person who has at least a junior high school education.

    Again, I haven’t been in prison since Christmas Day, 2002.

    I’m not going to pick up the shovel for you and try, to no avail, to prove that you were never on the bottle. If you want to backtrack and say that you were never a drunk then I suggest that you marshal the evidence and present your case.

    My advice would to be to lay off the cheap “tall-boy” ice beers. I read that that stuff will turn you into a toothless old woman, and real fast.

    Get some sleep and when you have the strength please review my report and stop making false accusations regarding attorney Apuzzo.

    You’re really this stupid Lucas? Prison and Jail are synonymous terms

    The fact is you lied again you were in the slammer in 2011 and were brought back to Iowa on theft charges as stated by your friend Bruce Steadman.

    There was no backtracking since I’ve never said I was on the bottle. You made the claim you should be able to present some evidence of what you claim I said. Much like your forgery and your “trip to Kenya” you can’t provide anything to back up your claim

    As usual you ramble on like an idiot when asked for proof of your kenya trip

    How many times have you become physically violent with your life partner after you’d been drinking?

    Lucas D. Smith: Oxford Union Debate at Harvard University – 04/18/2012

    Notice when asked to prove their claims they don’t start personally attacking the other side. Which is why you couldn’t handle a university style debate.

  252. Dr Kenneth Noisewater: Are you projecting your relationship with Bruce Steadman off on me now?

    Again Lucas proof you ever went to Kenya is whats being asked from you.This petty nonsense is unbecoming no wonder you were back in the slammer in 2011

    Do you realize what you are doing? Even you OCT cohorts are laughing at you.

    Again, please make your case if you want us to believe that you never said that you were on the bottle.

    You may want to start by saying, “My name is Mrs. Kenneth Noisewater and I am an alcoholic.

    Also, just for record here, do you prefer the bottle or the tall can?

    Lucas D. Smith: Do you realize what you are doing? Even you OCT cohorts are laughing at you.

    And again you make a fool of yourself by asking people to prove a negative. You made the statement that you claim I said it it is on you to prove it. I’ll take this as your concession that you’re a liar. Once a convicted felon scumbag always a convicted felon scumbag. You’ll never change Lucas. I expect you back in jail again like you were in 2011.

    Still waiting on proof you went to kenya

    I thought you said I was in prison in 2011? Now you say jail?

    How many have you had tonight? One, two, three dozen? You do 12 packs or what?

    Are you partial to Milwaukee or Miller?

    Please marshal a defense if you want to convince your cohorts and I that you are now off of the bottle. Until then you previous statement to the effect that you are an alcoholic stand.

    If you can sober up I think we might be able to conduct a university style debate now that I have explained what one is to you, you cohorts and your host who seems to have never seen one (his words).

    Set the bottle down on its coaster and lets get to the debate my fair lady.

    You can also be sentenced to jail. In most states the line between jail and prison sentences is one year and/or misdemeanors versus felonies.

    With that in mind let’s clarify a couple things:

    When have you been held in or sentenced to any jail? Where and what for?

    Prison and jail are synonyms Lucas http://thesaurus.com/browse/jail?s=t

    As anyone who has been involved in debate knows that is an Oxford style debate because, you’re right, it’s at Oxford. But it is not the way debates are handled everywhere else.

    Let’s start at the bottom and go to the beginning:

    I am familiar with your name from this blog and did look for your PCV (I like that; not bad.) and couldn’t find it. So……

    Back to the questions that you clumsily avoided:

    When have you been sentenced to any prison?Where and what for?

    When have you been held in or sentenced to any jail? Where and what for?

    Thanks…..again.

  265. CarlOrcas: You don’t want to debate. You want to strut around spouting personal barbs and tough guy nonsense like a high school sophomore disrupting class and trying to impress the girls.

    Have you had the time, and do you have the discipline, to read through the comments I’ve posted throughout the last couple of days on this thread and to review the replies from your cohorts?

    Nearly all replies, aside from a single semi-attempt (at least he made a half effort though the report seems to gone over his head) at university style debate made by your cohort “Reality Check”, have been ad hominem attacks, mocking remarks, sarcasm, sneering, sexual diatribes, name calling.

    It seems that you and your cohorts are not able to carry a out a serious university style debate.

    And please don’t try, not even in your best pseudo-erudite vernacular, to pretend that you’d ever even heard of an Oxford debate before I linked the video.

    If you are truly interested in debate, which you cohorts are not, then please review my report and reply with your thoughts regarding the challenge within.

    Scientist: If the framers pulled a fast one on the ratifiers, then no one is bound by the result. In fact, if Bob is right, then the natural born citizen clause may well be completely invalid.

    Precisely! BTW, that icon of the right, Justice Scalia,.said the constitution must mean what its terms were understood to mean when the constitution was framed, except for terms of art employed by a particular segement of society such as a trade. But for that, there would also have to be evidence, in Scalia’s view. So Bob loses, because an understanding that was not clearly understood by the general public, or to a specific segment of the public. has no validity, by Scalia’s originalist yardstick.

    Wow, someone actually pays you, a convicted forger, to conduct research? Isn’t that kind of like setting the fox to guard the chickens?

    I guess that just goes to show that there really are stupid people with money to throw away.

    Of course that’s assuming you’re tellig the truth when you say you’re paid to conduct research. Considering you’re a convicted forger and a felon….. it would be foolhardy to take your word for anything.

    Seventy years ago today, my dad was trying to make his way off of Djebel Ksaira back to American lines with the rest of the 3rd Battalion of the 168th Infantry, 34th Division, after a few companies of the 168th had been left, surrounded and almost alone, to stand and fight the Afrika Korps. He ended up a prisoner of the Germans, except for nine days escaped in February 1945, for over two years. Major General Charles Ryder, Commanding Officer of the 34th Infantry Division, wrote to Colonel Thomas Drake of the 168th in May 1945:
    “Knowing the conditions, I can only marvel at the gallantry of the 168th Infantry and yourself in the face of overwhelming odds. You, and you alone were fighting the entire German armored force of General Rommel and the delay you caused saved the Allied Forces in Southern Tunisia from disaster. Both of you wrote a page in American history for which you can be well proud. The blame for your defeat can only be layed on the shoulders of those who completely failed to come to your support as had been planned.”
    Which doesn’t have anything to do with Obama Conspiracies of any kind, but I’m just damned proud of what he did there, and I always think of it on the 17th of February. It’s worthy of some consideration. And he did vote for President Obama, and it is the open thread, so I beg your kind indulgences.

  275. Lupin says:

    Lucas D. Smith: Have you had the time, and do you have the discipline, to read through the comments I’ve posted today and to review the replies from your cohorts?

    Nearly all replies, aside from a single semi-attempt (at least he made a half effort though the report seems to gone over his head) at university style debate made by your cohort “Reality Check”, have been ad hominem attacks, mocking remarks, sarcasm, sneering, sexual diatribes, name calling.

    It seems that you and your cohorts are not able to carry a out a serious university style debate.

    You seem extremely dense.

    As i said, I’ll gladly listen to you about anything else, where your opinion might have some value, but not the Obama-related matters where you have already been convicted of fraud and proved yourself to be a constant liar.

    I was thinking about a new question about Obama’s long form birth certificate he posted on the White House website. Birthers claim there is no seal on that birth certificate and you can’t see it. However, Obots have been able to show it using photo software that the seal is actually on the birth certificate.

    Birthers claim that the White House BC is something electronic that was created from a computer and NOT scanned.

    If Obama’s Birth Certificate is in fact REAL and based on a REAL copy that was SCANNED in, the birth certificate would have FINGER PRINTS on it.

    I think is pretty obvious that you can’t see FINGER PRINTS on the BC like the seal but they are there.

    I wonder if there is any photo software out there that could pick the finger prints on the birth certificate. It would have to be a pretty sensitive software.

    Hey, john, go answer your own question. Go and research what it takes to reveal fingerprints left on paper.

    And then go ponder how one would so about revealing any such prints on an image of a given piece paper.

    Meanwhile, I’ll be in the corner laughing.

    You must think the people involved have some very dirty fingers.

    Have you tried using a purty pink eraser on your monitor? Perhaps some Wite-Out? It comes in so many forms, one of them has to work! Keep thinking, you’ll come up with some way to make that nasssty paperses stop telling you Obama was born in Hawaii.

    John,

    Do you have any problem with Rafael (Ted) Cruz running for president?

    Here are some indisputable facts about him:
    -His mother is an American citizen.
    -His father was a Cuban citizen (at the time of Cruz’s birth).
    -Ted Cruz was born in Alberta, Canada and moved to the United Sates when he was 4 years old.

    Do you have any problem with Piyush (Bobby) Jindal running for president?
    -Both of his parents were Indian citizens at the time of his birth.
    -His mother was already six months pregnant with him when she arrived in USA. If you believe life starts at the time of conception, then Bobby Jindal is an Indian citizen at birth(no?).

    I hope I am not violating the blog’s policy but since John is so obsessed with proving president Obama wasn’t born in USA and not eligible to be a president, I couldn’t resist asking him some questions relevant to his post.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 27, 2011
    HAWAI‘I HEALTH DEPARTMENT GRANTS PRESIDENT OBAMA’S REQUEST FOR CERTIFIED COPIES OF ‘LONG FORM’ BIRTH CERTIFICATE
    HONOLULU – The Hawai’i State Health Department recently complied with a request by President Barack Obama for certified copies of his original Certificate of Live Birth, which is sometimes referred to in the media as a “long form” birth certificate.
    “We hope that issuing certified copies of the original Certificate of Live Birth to President Obama will end the numerous inquiries related to his birth in Hawai’i,” Hawai’i Health Director Loretta Fuddy said. “I have seen the original records filed at the Department of Health and attest to the authenticity of the certified copies the department provided to the President that further prove the fact that he was born in Hawai’i.”
    On April 22, 2011, President Obama sent a letter to Director Fuddy, requesting two certified copies of his original Certificate of Live Birth. Also on that day, Judith Corley, the President‟s personal attorney, made the same request in writing on behalf of the President. (Letters from President Obama and Ms. Corley are attached).
    On April 25, 2011, pursuant to President Obama‟s request, Director Fuddy personally witnessed the copying of the original Certificate of Live Birth and attested to the authenticity of the two copies. Dr. Alvin Onaka, the State Registrar, certified the copies.

    How do you know when the book you have was printed? On your website you assert it “was published and printed in the year 1958.”

    The image of the copyright page from the book that you provide on your site simply says “First Published 1958”. That would seem to indicate that this may be a reprint from a later date.

    If that is the case that would seem to render all the esoterica about kerning moot.

    In any case the book does nothing – with or without kerning – to establish the validity of your Obama birth certificate.

    And, oh yes, since it’s obvious you have a scanner, and know how to use it, how about some images of the tickets and other travel documents from your trip to Kenya to secure the birth certificate.

    I understand that a modern technique of lifting fingerprints uses Cyanoacrylate vapors to react with the oils in fingerprints to make them visible. Cyanoacrylate is SuperGlue. So what you need to do is open up the LFBC on your computer and get a tube of SuperGlue. Squeeze out a generous portion on a dish and place it in front of your monitor. Cover the monitor and the dish with a plastic bag to trap in the vapors. I guarantee that the fingerprints will now be permanently displayed on your monitor.

    Of course this will completely trash your monitor but isn’t that a small price to pay for getting the Usurper out of office?

    […]

    Does Obama’s Long Form White House Birth Certificate have FINGER PRINTS on it proving it is actually a real copy?

    I don’t get the point.

    If there are no fingerprints discernable on the PDF scan, it doesn’t prove there are none on the original. (Besides, given that the scan was made off a certified copy of the BC, it’s more likely any such fingerprints would come from the certified copy which was handled by several people, not from the original.)
    Therefore the lack of fingerprints would not suffice as even circumstantial evidence that “no original exists”.

    OTOH, if you could find fingerprints that made it through to the PDF scan and even if you could rule out these came from the certified copy instead of the original, for birthers this still wouldn’t prove an original exists as they would claim “they printed out the PDF (which was the original source) and re-scanned it” or whatnot.
    Or they would claim it doesn’t prove the original was actually created in 1961, or was not falsified during the copying or scanning process, or whatnot.

    Either way, fingerprints would not be any useful evidence for either side. Do you honestly believe there are birthers who go “I have doubts if there really is an original, but if somebody can show me the PDF has traces of fingerprints, those doubts will go away”? This would be the elusive “honest birther” that is harder to find than the Higgs boson. (Maybe we could build a birther accelerator that finds such a birther by accelerating other birthers to the speed of light and having them crash into one another? Nice idea…. ;))

    And 6085 Kalanianaole Highway? Well, there is a house there, but nothing like what Obama’s people have told us to expect.

  305. OK, I am game. I get to make up the test, right? Here is a sneak peak at question number one. It is a sort of a screening test. If you can’t answer this one then I do not see the point of continuing.

    Which of the the following stories of Obama’s birth is more probable?

    A. Barack Obama was born in Hawaii because he has published two different certified copies of his birth certificate, two different Hawaii administrations have attested and verified their authenticity, there were contemporary newspaper accounts of the birth, and a state department investigator from the 1960’s investigated and found he was born in Hawaii.

    B. Barack Obama was born in Kenya because a convicted forger posted a certificate on the internet with fake looking footprints with no ridges and that showed he was born in Mombasa but it had a misspelled name for the hospital chief administrator who was actually not even the chief administrator at the time the birth certificate was dated. It also had the wrong date format. The convicted forger has had three years to provide proof he was in Kenya at the time but has failed to do so.

    So you and Doc can both post your answers. The ones with the correct answer will be invited on the show. Best of luck to you both!

    Lucas D. Smith: I accept your IQ test challenge.

    “First Published” is the same things as saying “First Edition”. I’ve been collecting old books and paper antiques for since I was teenager.

    There are no other editions for the book (The Life-Story of a Kenya Chief).

    Furthemore, a guy like you doesn’t even know the difference between edition and printing.

    The “type” (typography and kerning) is not changed in “printings”. The “type” is only, changed, if ever, in different “editions”.

    And even then it doesn’t have to change, especially if a book is more than 50 years old (kind of gives it an antique feeling to read and old book with the old “type” (letterpress) even if it was published yesterday.

    I’m happy that you learned some things today and if you get a change please thank me. I was also once a high school teacher, Sociology.

    1. “Printings” and “Editions” are not the same thing. “Type” does not change in different “printings”.

    2. First Published means First Edition.

    3. There are no other editions for the book, “The Life-Story of a Kenya Chief”. There is only the 1958 edition.

    Publias,

    While much of what you say is commonly asserted in the right wing blogosphere, much of it is just downright not true.

    1. On 9/12 the day after a bunch of Saudis flew planes into the Twin Towers and the pentagon, Bush was already planning to invade Iraq.

    2. Anyone who has actually lived in the middle east would have informed Bush that:
    A. Saddam lied about nearly everything, so don’t believe him.
    B. Saddam had no reason to actually use weapons against anyone except his own people and his traditional enemy, Iran.
    C. The Iraq army was the only entity in the entire country that actually worked somewhat, everything else didn’t work at all. (and firing everyone from the army was therefore a really, really bad idea.)
    D. The “honeymoon” after the Iraqi army was defeated would be around a month, and then everyone would start going after the Americans.
    E. Nearly everyone in Iraq was brought up to hate the US, Israel and the West, and almost none of them were going to change in a few days, weeks, or decades. Hasn’t happened yet. You know that Iraq still has not revoked its declaration of war against Israel, from 1947?

    F. Suitcase nukes? Even if Iraq had a weapons program they would not have been able to make a “suitcase” nuke. Maybe the US has one or two, but no one else does.

    G. Anthrax? Again, weaponizing anthrax is not easy, and why would someone fly over a city with it? Sending it through the mail works much better, as was shown by a US Government Employee.

    H. In overthrowing Saddam the US directly killed around 75,000 people, about half civilians. In badly managing the post invasion around 1,000,000 have been killed, several million displaced, and while the outcome is still not clear, it appears we will end up replacing one dictator with three dictators: one for the Kurds, one for Bagdad and the center, and one in the south.

    I. And, lastly, AND MOST IMPORTANT, the US gave up one of its cherished beliefs: that the US would never start a war.

    Publius: No. I note that other countries’ assessments concurred with our own.

    It’s our business if there is reason to believe that person may be plotting things like putting suitcase nukes in the harbors of our major coastal cities, or flying crop dusters with a few hundred pounds of anthrax over our major cities. You’d better believe it’s our business.

    Unlike the vast majority of Americans, I was actively following what was publicly known of Saddam’s mindset, capabilities and intentions towards America in the months prior to 9/11. Unlike the vast majority of Americans, I was versed in what he might well be able to do to us with relatively small quantities of renegade nukes, anthrax, or weaponized smallpox.

    It was frankly a relief to me when the American bombs started falling on Iraq, and when US boots hit the ground.

    If your neighbor is a known homicidal nutjob who is confirmed to have slaughtered people by the thousands in the past, using weapons of mass destruction, and all the available information suggests that he has, or at least very well may have, plans to blow your house up, you don’t wait for the explosion to rip your family’s limbs from their bodies. You eliminate the threat.

    If the current US President ruled the United States as a dictator, and if he and his sons roamed the streets picking up women to rape at will, and randomly fed people into the plastic shredding machines for their own amusement, and oppressed the entire nation and caused us all to live in fear for our lives, and did things like saying, “I’m having a bad day,” and then lined up captured members of those who opposed him, and went through and personally took a pistol and slaughtered them by the dozens, and then said, “I feel better now,” you can bet that I would welcome whatever power came in and overthrew such a son of a b*tch.

    As did the Iraqi people, by the millions.

    Just tell them there is no requirement that the President be a natural born citizen, since the clause was inserted into the Constitution by the fraudulent actions of John Jay, and is thus invalid. I believe that has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

    FYI, last Friday, the U.S. Attorney–on behalf of the federal defendants–filed a motion to dismiss the first amended complaint in Grinols.

    The U.S. Attorney, of course, is not representing the President since Taitz insists she is suing him in his individual capacity. I don’t think Taitz has managed to serve Obama with summons.

    Indoctrination is a tough thing to overcome. My father grew up during the Third Reich and even 70 years later, he’s still an anti-Semite and regime apologist at heart.

  324. @Publius: religion + GOP = fascism

    God told me to invade Iraq, Bush tells Palestinian ministers

    “President Bush said to all of us: ‘I’m driven with a mission from God. God would tell me, “George, go and fight those terrorists in Afghanistan.” And I did, and then God would tell me, “George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq .” And I did. And now, again, I feel God’s words coming to me, “Go get the Palestinians their state and get the Israelis their security, and get peace in the Middle East.” And by God I’m gonna do it.'”

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/stories/2005/10_october/06/bush.shtml

    Iraq was about oil. Idi Amin was 100x worse, and an international criminal. Ford did not send in the Marines, because there wasn’t any oil. Cheney orchestrated Iraq, for his Halliburton buddies.

    The neocons pushed all of W’s evangelical buttons. The perfect storm.

  325. Readers here know I have been saying Orly is driven because she believes Obama is bad for Israel, and she is a fascist in the actual meaning:

    Complete story:

    Prominent Hagel Detractor Endorses Fascistic Vision of Israel

    I bring this up to note the remarkable fact that Mr. Shapiro, who has positioned himself as a stalwart defender of Israel and of the Jewish people, has expressed views that place him squarely in the fascist camp.

    In a column published in 2003, Shapiro explicitly endorsed the idea of forcibly expelling the Palestinians from the West Bank. This was the position of the extremist Meir Kahane, who was banned by the Israeli Supreme Court from participating in Israeli politics because of his racist views. Here is an excerpt from one of Shapiro’s columns, entitled “Transfer is Not a Dirty Word,” which, to the best of my knowledge, he has never renounced, not that it would matter particularly much:

    The Jews don’t realize that expelling a hostile population is a commonly used and generally effective way of preventing violent entanglements. There are no gas chambers here. It’s not genocide; it’s transfer. It’s not Hitler; it’s Churchill.

  326. Arthur says:

    misha marinsky: Readers here know I have been saying Orly is driven because she believes Obama is bad for Israel,

    I think your assertion makes sense. For your consideration, here is a David Solway, “a Canadian poet, educational theorist, travel writer and literary critic of Jewish descent,” who, in addition to his teaching and literary efforts, is known “for his polemical outspokenness, especially in defence of Zionism, George W. Bush and the war on terror.”1

    Solway also seems to have come out as a birther:

  327. W. Kevin Vicklund says:

    Orly has posted some correspondence with the state lawyers in Grinols. The state will be withdrawing its motion to dismiss scheduled for hearing in March, and filing a new motion to dismiss based on the amended complaint. Orly conveniently doesn’t mention the second part in her headline.

  328. Thomas Brown says:

    misha marinsky: God would tell me, “George, go and fight those terrorists in Afghanistan.”

    So, George… does that mean the Big Guy has no problem with North Korea? Said nothing about those fellers, did he? You know… the ones now trying to gain intercontinental nuclear weapons, and who have sworn to accomplish the destruction of America?

  329. Arthur says:

    misha marinsky: Readers here know I have been saying Orly is driven because she believes Obama is bad for Israel, and she is a fascist in the actual meaning:

    And then there’s this:

    “Barack Obama to receive Israel’s presidential medal of distinction

    “A statement said that the honour recognised Obama’s ‘unique and significant contribution to strengthening the State of Israel and the security of its citizens.'”

  330. J.D. Sue says:

    Arthur: misha marinsky: Readers here know I have been saying Orly is driven because she believes Obama is bad for Israel, and she is a fascist in the actual meaning:

    —-

    I know many people in Israel, and people in the US who support Israel, who think President Obama has been great. Of course Israel, like the US, has its share of far right wing nut jobs who claim that only they are true patriots. Note that Taitz now calls Shimon Peres (Israel’s beloved President who has had a long, outstanding career in Israel’s founding, military, and government) a “decrepit old socialist” because he is recognizing President Obama’s security efforts. (Note that Israel has always been a socialist country, though the right wing nut jobs pretend otherwise).

  331. donna says:

    best roar of the day: taitz tried to fax 137 pages to shimon peres “advising him that he is about to give a medal of distinction to a criminal with forged and stolen IDs”

    the result from taitz: Interesting fact: when I tried to fax the letter to President of Israel Shimon Peres, there was a message in Hebrew from the phone company that the fax is blocked. Why would the state department of Israel post on their web site the fax number, which is blocked?

    can’t take a hint, orly?

  332. donna: Why would the state department of Israel post on their web site the fax number, which is blocked?

    Everything is being translated into Esperanto.

    True story: Esperanto was invented by a Jewish linguist.

  333. The Magic M says:

    J.D. Sue: Note that Taitz now calls Shimon Peres (Israel’s beloved President who has had a long, outstanding career in Israel’s founding, military, and government) a “decrepit old socialist”

    She tends to speak/post before she thinks. First she calls Peres a “decrepit old socialist” for giving Obama a medal, *then* she thinks if she sends her pile of poo to the same “decrepit old socialist”, he will turn birther and go “thank you Orly, of course I will forget what you said about me and not give a medal to your evil ineligible President”… *facepalm*

    misha marinsky: Everything is being translated into Esperanto.

    I would’ve preferred Loglan. 😉
    I love languages and speak a few but never got around to learning one that doesn’t use roman letters (Hebrew, Arabic, Japanese, Chinese…) – would’ve loved to, but the learning curve is too steep.
