Lou you are a great man & you know what you are talking about. They tied your hands and you said enough.

If FOX and MSNBC can have their OTT anchors why is CNN bucking the trend? I just assumed Dobbs was CNN's counterpart to O'Reilly and Olbermann!
Real employment is 17%, a sympathy driver for a populist message. In better times, I'd find this Main St.-doesn't-watch-him plausible.
I'm not buying the Nielsen "ratings cartel" stats. Nielsen, La Raza, Media Matters — they've lost credibility for getting mixed up in a witch hunt. It's obvious a lot of arm twisting took place behind closed doors.
Dobbs show was the only proof CNN could offer that they weren't merely the "biased" mainstream media that conservatives claimed. Now CNN has proven that they only want a single political demographic watching their network. With this move, CNN can be to liberal political "theology" what Fox is to conservative dogma. God help us. We're going to need it because the battle lines are drawn and the dissenters have been pushed out of their respective networks. So much for diversity. RIP 1st Amendment.
the liberal media has done a hatch job as they tend to do to anyone who expressess any view that doesn't lockstep with theirs. too many lies were told about what he said that he didn't say.
illegals do create many problems even among their own members. gang membership and violence has spilled over from the drug cartels. crime has risen and this is a fact.
So many enter the US for the promise of a better life only to end up in the cross hairs. Why? Because political correctness indiscriminately "defends all kinds", even trespassers who set up drug and gang ties, those who kill cops and kids, and those who destroy urban families. What does it say about La Raza and Media Matters to allow minorities in inner cities to serve as targets for broken borders? Is this politically correct — or a neo racist recipe for minority-on-minority violence?
Lou Dobbs leaving CNN is one of the best things he had ever done. Go where the #1 News Org is. Dobbs will end up on FOXNEWS evently! MSNBC CNN ABC CBS NBC all air FAKE NEWS!
Thank God I have no reason now to tune into the CNN propaganda network anymore. I cringed every time I had to listen to the last of the Blitzer CFR corporate garbage so I could catch the beginning of Dobbs. Lou Dobbs and Alex Jones should start their own news network.
They did not play the whole clip where he said he believes Obama was born here. He just does not understand why he doesn't show the long form and be done with it. Fact is CNN changed management and does not want any opinion shows. They say they want to be completely neutral. We will see. Foxes ratings have tripled because of opinion shows.
Seriously though Both Republicans and Democrats dont want to address protecting our borders despite the fact that they say radical muslims want to get into our country to kill us because they dont want to alienate latino voters who for some reason identify with Illegal immigrants .
You obviously have not listened ,or read Mr. Dobbs words.( A quote from him) How can we get to the employer who is so shamelessly exploiting the illegal alien and so shamelessly flaunting U.S. law?"
I am a supporter of legal immigration. I highly favor legal immigration. We can't control immigration if we can't control our borders! The far left makes up or takes out of context his words. They are totally off base and don't want to hear his opinion because he is conservative.
Lou just hides behind the flag like the rest of these cowards that blame all their problems on "the other" and call it patriotism. His brand of ego-driven journalism makes me sick.
Just think, Lou Dobbs mentioned the New World Order. People would say your Nuts if you mentioned this a couple of years ago and now it's main stream news
"straight news" Yeah, straight news the way WE like it. Anyone who watches mainstream media and considers it REAL and truly INFORMATIVE needs to do themselves a favor and turn that sh!t off.

you still have not said why he is a con artist, just because he has commercials on his show that means he is a con artist lol your funny, and that water purification machine is a good machine and will get a person out of a crisis, and it works great outdoors ive tried it, but just because he has sponsors to fund his show does not mean he is a con artist, think before you say something
radio shows need sponsors like every other show, you are mad because he has commercials lol anyways you still have not said anything that your against, you just seem to be an angry person, visit my website you will find it interesting
Lou Dobbs is a hero, and a stand up man, this is how you can tell the news is scripted, right when a reporter stars reporting real news and what is really going on they fire them, everyone should stop watching the news and get their news off of alternative media like infowars where they report what is truly happening in america
th media is left because when you become educated you realize that conservative thought doesn't work to deal with modern issues. conservatism is based upon conspiracy

The reason CNN is dead last in the ratings is: the leftist bias of the "news programs". No matter how much CNN pretends to be object, anchors like Anderson Cooper and Rick Sanchez will continue to pick the news according to their leftist views.
Viewers are not stupid, CNN is far from objective and that's why people are not watching "propaganda light"
WOW 3 on 1. I thought CNN messed up myself. Dobbs was the only reason I ever watched CNN. Dobbs told the truth and Libs want to hug a tree. The truth is Hippies are in control and they need to be back out on the streets protesting while leaders should lead. Damn 60's heads can't be part of history fast enough!!!!!!!! Damn Libs!!!!!
Yes illegal immigrants are de jure criminals, but most of them do not behave criminally while in the United States. Contrast this with the Americans who illegally immigrated to Texas in the 19th century, bringing along their slaves and thus openly flouting Mexican law.
If we made it simply and easier to legally enter the United State then there wouldn't be so many illegals.
15% of illegal aliens have previous criminal backgrounds. That's why the mexican drug cartel is running most American cities, and crime rates are epidemic on the border.
I'm a liberal. I like Lou Dobbs. I'm a liberal who thinks illegal immigration is a problem. However, I do think Dobbs was inaccurate with some of his claims abut illegal immigration. That said, I'm glad he brought the issue up.
Damn right. If he didn't bring the issue up, who else in the media would have had the guts to do so? He was one of the only guys in the media who fought the crippling political correctness that has pervaded our media outlets for far too long.
I never saw Lou back down from anyone because he deals in truth and not political correctness. He is a straight shooter and speaks the truth. You may not agree but he is being dumped out of fear for ratings! Hold your chin up Lou because you are a disappering sort!
I had no idea anout those facts, thanks for pointing them out. Why is it that you can't point out facts, no matter how unflattering, without being labeled a racist?
Eric Deggans hit the nail on the head when he said that the problem with the so-called "NEWS" media, is that they alter the facts of the news to fit the world view of their viewers, ie, numbers = advertising dollars. I only watch BBC News and France 24 for real news these days. You can trust them to report honestly. Not what some CEO of a network tells you to report.
It's nice to see that the lapdog media is exposed. Reporters no longer ask the tough questions because if they do, they're gone, history, etc. So, now what? How are you going to find out the real truth. Certainly not be maidstream media.
If you want just straight facts, the only choice you have is CSPAN. I actually kind of agree that CNN is totally kidding itself as to what it actually is...which isn't an outfit with a left or right agenda...but a NEUTRAL agenda. What they and others do not realize is that this is STILL an AGENDA. Hence they will distort, cover-up, and mis-represent inconvenient facts that seem partisan for the sake of bland, homogenous neutral news.
I think CNN sucks but not for any reason most people may bring up.
They suck because they try too hard to be neutral concerning things that are clear and obvious FACTS. They'll say 'some are for the public options, some are against it'...but they refuse to say 'the majority of Americans are for the public option', which is a fact.
They allow the facts to be white-washed by an excess of a desire to be 'neutral'. Just do the facts, no matter where they fall politically. CNN fails at this.
Recently, CNN has finished even lower than MSNBC, and that's saying something. CNN is finished as well as MSNBC, and the NY Times. Frankly I hope Fox News isn't the only choice we have, but it seems the others just don't "get it". To go bankrupt over pushing an agenda nobody wants or believes is just insane.
Well, CNN does a good job pushing the Obama agenda, using language that is favorable. It's f*cking coy tactics. Just cause they use a passive voice doesn't mean they aren't opinionated and biased.
Dobbs sealed his fate when he started going with the "Some people are saying ..." and "I'm just asking questions" arguments. "I'm just asking if it is possible that he beats his wife. I didn't ACCUSE him of that." That is demagoguery. No legitimate news person would ever do that. It is standard fare at Faux, but nowhere else, and that sort of thing is why Faux cannot be considered a legitimate news organization. Legitimate news operations present facts, not "Some people are saying."
So one side name calls worst than the other. Big deal? I recall Harry Reid calling Bush a "loser" in front of school children. Gore said "Bush betrayed this nation" Basically calling him a liar. Both sides name call. For the left wingers to fake outrage by this is silly.
Whoo someone called Obama Hilter!?!?! And how many times did Democrats call Bush Hitler, Fascist, Terrorist, liar, and War Criminal? If one person calls Obama any name you left wingers go apeshit. Don't dish it if you cant take it.
MSDNC has Olbermann, Maddow, Matthews, Schuster, Schultz.. All of these guys are left wingers. How can you deny this? The only two Republicans on MSDNC are Scarborough and Buchanan. The head of GE works inside the Obama White House. GE/MSNBC recently got a bailout. So not only did MSDNC get a bailout from the white house they're in the tank as well. Name one Republican on CNN?
This right-winger here, Chris Plante, is another douche! Is there any conservative nowadays that ISN'T? one? I can't think of one! Seems to me like they all drank the same Kool-Aid and it's rotted their brains.
You missed the point. MSNBC openly admits it programs to address the audience on the left. They don't hide that. Faux claims to be a straight shooting news network, but everybody knows that is nonsense -- they are a hard right-wing organ, like the NY Post and the rest of Murdoch's properties. CNN, on the other hand, it staking its business plan on being truly objective, and a pontificating gasbag like Dobbs was completely incompatible with that strategy. Get him over to Faux where he belongs.
No I got the point. CNN is not "down the middle" I would say it's center left and MSDNC is very hard left. Dobbs was the only person on there that made me watch CNN. He talked about REAL issues concerning immigration and outsourcing of Jobs. He was pretty much run out of CNN by the highers up because he was talked about REAL issues. I hope he does come to Fox.
@videotitan1 He resigned. I dont think you understand Dobb's position within the company. In a manner of speaking, he helped found CNN. Would you make the claim that all the other original people were fired? you cant. They left on their own. In fact, Dobb's leaving will hurt CNN more than you realize. Did you know Fox has more viewers than CNN and MSNBC? Dobb's viewers leave with him. Fox's ratings will go higher. Balance is the key to success.
Dobbs didnt say he believed the birthers, he did say that its a big controversy though and asked the question regarding how its being dealt with. The liberal media spun this into him siding with those who question obama's birth. They clearly cant see how he places his words so they can go either way. Talking about the question of the controversy is what a JOURNALIST should do. The left would rather silence the topic rather than address a widespread controversy, a current events talking point.
that's like saying: Well, because people believe that the earth is flat, we should give them some air time (if enough of them gather around and make a fuss about it), no matter how FACTUALLY incorrect they are (and demonstrably so, even).
Sorry but giving coverage to something not only unimportant but a DISTRACTION to the real issues is, in a sense, promoting it. Unless he was ultimately explicit in his ridicule of such an obviously WRONG ideology, he's, as they say "a part of the problem".
@NwZ2 Dear Nw72, do you honestly wish to compare a current political controversy during a time of heightened political corruption, regarding president with a controversial and yet very vague past, to the ancient belief that the world was flat? Do you honestly wish to use that as your argument? Science can prove the world is round, it is something everyone can see with their own eyes. Can the same be said for Obama's birth? I think not. I pity the person who does not question everything (wisdom).
Compare? They are in and of the same thing: sheer lunacy.
He's already shown his documentation, beyond all reasonable expectations (whens';t eh last time YOU"VE whipped out your birth certificate to satisfy customers you may or may not serve on a job? Exactly).
It's a classical racist argument: black people are bad, therefore anything that they've accomplished is illegitimate. No, i'm not making this shit up: it's history. Pick up a book; "Birthers" is yet another incarnation of it.
To clarify: you *can* disagree with the man's policies. You can also disagree with the man himself (as a person). But to say that you can call him Illegitimate (not in the same way Bush was, because it wasn't disputed if he was even AMERICAN) without being racist when SUCH an act against the very first black (bi-racial) president amidst SUCH historical contexts, is irresponsibility at its finest. It's akin to saying you can be a Nazi without anti-Semitic. Perhaps, but only in la-la-land.
Ah how it is Racist to question Obama's Birth Certificate?. Where is the hard evidence of that? I am black BTW so please enlighten me? Also McCain's Birth status also came into question.
you weren't reading. It's been a HISTORICAL fact AND precedent to question the legitimacy of black achievements by Racists, much in the same way Nazi's in Germany set the historical precedent of being anti-Semitic via the HOLOCAUST. It's simple: it's irresponsible. PLUS, even DESPITE this sickening display of a deficiency of class, Obama *still* showed his birth certificate and thus it's general knowledge that he's an American citizen (hence why it's comparable to flat-earthers).
No it's simply asking a question. Why jump to conclusion without real facts? The problem with liberals calling people "Racists" without the facts is that you guys tend to water that word down and "cry wolf". Everything is Racist to you people.
After I went through the trouble of explaining, in INTRICATE detail my argument, you merely respond by saying "no it isn't". No analysis, no historical facts, NOTHING. You're a troll and nothing more and I don't appreciate having my time wasted by such disingenuous individuals. When you want to participate in a REAL conversation (See: fair), come back. Till then, the adults are trying to have a discussion.
No it's simply your "arguments" make no sense. You basically called me "self hating" at the same time you said that race is a "social construct". How can I be "self hating" when there is no such thing as race?
It came into question, but not as a matter of race but of technicality. Hence why that issue came and WENT with little to no exposure. HOwever, Obama showed his birth certificate and yet there are (many) people who are NOT SATISFIED> It's clear that their intentions/actions serve as an outlet for their xenophobic bigotry. C'mon man, its called a fucking inference (via observation of empirical facts coupled with reasoned argument, also known as HISTORY).
Also: it's been demonstrated that you can racist against your own race (which is LOL cause race is a social construct anyway). So don't think that you saying you're black precludes you from such racist sentiments (it's also a historical precedent of blacks hating each other and themselves due to racist ideologies brain-washing them. See: Malcolm X).
So just because I say that the people challenging Obama aren't racist. That makes me self hating? That's retarded. That's like saying if a White man said that time is 3:30 and if I agreed with it im a self hating racist because I simply agreed with him. See how DUMB that sounds? And race is a "social construct" at the same time? Man you people on here are extremely ridiculous.
Everything I've labored to express to you has gone over your head. Feel free to reread my comments until you're able to satisfactorily understand the point I was making. Until then, stop wasting our time.
Also, just SAYING something is doesn't make it so: you present no argument nor historical facts to back up your point. Your ahistorical attempt at armchair analysis leaves much to be desired.
Rofl. Without anything of substance to say, you resort to attemping to bait me out. I'm at a loss for words; you claim you're a black man but you represent yourself in such a shameful manner.
Race *is* a social construct (if you're aware of the meaning of the phrase). Race has no scientific backing whatsoever as a means of demarcation between what is, rightfully so, the HUMAN RACE. It's a construct that has its history (and hence CREATION) some ~400 odd years ago. Like I said: pick up a book.
9:40 onward "the news should be distorted to fit the world view of the audience".... THIS is pure bullshit!!! Erick Deggans is a fu@king moron
The news should be the news, and all subjects investigated no matter whether mainstream media determines that it should be considered conspiracy theory or not, ask the hard questions otherwise it breeds secrecy... HOW THE HELL CAN YOU SAY THAT NEWS SHOULD BE SKEWED TO FIT THE AUDIENCE, NEWS IS NEWS...what ever happened to real investigative journalism?
Mainly Lou Dobbs got boring. In the same way those Jesus people come up to me, a complete stranger, and start blah blahing about the bible. It's boring like people who are reprehensible, who wake up one day and, in an attempt to redeem themselves, decide to be a drag and a jerk to everyone else around them, causing them to turn away from their "truth", so they get on God's good side again. No less selfish and self centered now using those around them to assuage their redemption drama.
Exactly !! "It is ERROR alone which needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself." Thomas Jefferson Korea = Error UN = Error Fiat Money = Error War on Drugs = Error Ineligible Presidents = Error War Criminals invading countries (Bush) = Error Camels Jockeys armed with box cutters subverting a 40 billion dollar domesticate defence system with no one getting fired = Error Stop Loss = Error Guarding Opium fields with the blood of youth, taxpayer money = Error US Constitution = TRUTH
Chris Plante tries to further the birther's agenda. Fukino is the Hawaii Dept of Health and Statistics Director who has come out TWICE and said she has reviewed Obama's birth certificate and he WAS BORN in Hawaii.
oh! i guess they were not bought! i don't like bush or any of those crooks but there kin don't you get it they play us..he is Cheney cousin..there all inbred
"I ... have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen," Health Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino said in a brief statement. "I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago." (tinyurl*com/nvulvt as taken from FN) The propaganda is is coming solely from birthers.
Even if Obama was born in Hawaii his father was a Kenyan National. When a child is born from two different parents the child travels on the father's passport until the child becomes of age and applies for his mother's citizenship.
Unless both parents were US citizens then the child is a Natural Born US Citizen Book.
As for Island girl she never states that Obama's long form is Hawaiian.
You are a looney toon who relies too much on birther propaganda. Obama is NATURAL BORN solely because HE WAS BORN IN HAWAII. He held dual-citizenship (US/British) until he was 21. Keep listening to Orly because she's a loon as well.
Let's open the border with mexico and unite so there be no need to have a border and live the good life.

WOW 3 on 1. I thought CNN messed up myself. Dobbs was the only reason I ever watched CNN. Dobbs told the truth and Libs want to hug a tree. The truth is Hippies are in control and they need to be back out on the streets protesting while leaders should lead. Damn 60's heads can't be part of history fast enough!!!!!!!! Damn Libs!!!!!

Yes illegal immigrants are de jure criminals, but most of them do not behave criminally while in the United States. Contrast this with the Americans who illegally immigrated to Texas in the 19th century, bringing along their slaves and thus openly flouting Mexican law.
If we made it simply and easier to legally enter the United State then there wouldn't be so many illegals.
TacticusPrime 2 years ago
15% of illegal aliens have previous criminal backgrounds. That's why the mexican drug cartel is running most American cities, and crime rates are epidemic on the border.

I'm a liberal. I like Lou Dobbs. I'm a liberal who thinks illegal immigration is a problem. However, I do think Dobbs was inaccurate with some of his claims abut illegal immigration. That said, I'm glad he brought the issue up.
MrClipper23 2 years ago
Damn right. If he didn't bring the issue up, who else in the media would have had the guts to do so? He was one of the only guys in the media who fought the crippling political correctness that has pervaded our media outlets for far too long.
SgtSoot 2 years ago
I never saw Lou back down from anyone because he deals in truth and not political correctness. He is a straight shooter and speaks the truth. You may not agree but he is being dumped out of fear for ratings! Hold your chin up Lou because you are a disappering sort!

Eric Deggans hit the nail on the head when he said that the problem with the so-called "NEWS" media, is that they alter the facts of the news to fit the world view of their viewers, ie, numbers = advertising dollars. I only watch BBC News and France 24 for real news these days. You can trust them to report honestly. Not what some CEO of a network tells you to report.

It's nice to see that the lapdog media is exposed. Reporters no longer ask the tough questions because if they do, they're gone, history, etc. So, now what? How are you going to find out the real truth. Certainly not be maidstream media.

If you want just straight facts, the only choice you have is CSPAN. I actually kind of agree that CNN is totally kidding itself as to what it actually is...which isn't an outfit with a left or right agenda...but a NEUTRAL agenda. What they and others do not realize is that this is STILL an AGENDA. Hence they will distort, cover-up, and mis-represent inconvenient facts that seem partisan for the sake of bland, homogenous neutral news.
Staticnz 2 years ago 2
I think CNN sucks but not for any reason most people may bring up.
They suck because they try too hard to be neutral concerning things that are clear and obvious FACTS. They'll say 'some are for the public options, some are against it'...but they refuse to say 'the majority of Americans are for the public option', which is a fact.
They allow the facts to be white-washed by an excess of a desire to be 'neutral'. Just do the facts, no matter where they fall politically. CNN fails at this.

Recently, CNN has finished even lower than MSNBC, and that's saying something. CNN is finished as well as MSNBC, and the NY Times. Frankly I hope Fox News isn't the only choice we have, but it seems the others just don't "get it". To go bankrupt over pushing an agenda nobody wants or believes is just insane.

Dobbs sealed his fate when he started going with the "Some people are saying ..." and "I'm just asking questions" arguments. "I'm just asking if it is possible that he beats his wife. I didn't ACCUSE him of that." That is demagoguery. No legitimate news person would ever do that. It is standard fare at Faux, but nowhere else, and that sort of thing is why Faux cannot be considered a legitimate news organization. Legitimate news operations present facts, not "Some people are saying."

You missed the point. MSNBC openly admits it programs to address the audience on the left. They don't hide that. Faux claims to be a straight shooting news network, but everybody knows that is nonsense -- they are a hard right-wing organ, like the NY Post and the rest of Murdoch's properties. CNN, on the other hand, it staking its business plan on being truly objective, and a pontificating gasbag like Dobbs was completely incompatible with that strategy. Get him over to Faux where he belongs.
PhillipsGuild 2 years ago
No I got the point. CNN is not "down the middle" I would say it's center left and MSDNC is very hard left. Dobbs was the only person on there that made me watch CNN. He talked about REAL issues concerning immigration and outsourcing of Jobs. He was pretty much run out of CNN by the highers up because he was talked about REAL issues. I hope he does come to Fox.

@videotitan1 He resigned. I dont think you understand Dobb's position within the company. In a manner of speaking, he helped found CNN. Would you make the claim that all the other original people were fired? you cant. They left on their own. In fact, Dobb's leaving will hurt CNN more than you realize. Did you know Fox has more viewers than CNN and MSNBC? Dobb's viewers leave with him. Fox's ratings will go higher. Balance is the key to success.
Shiftfallout 2 years ago
Dobbs didnt say he believed the birthers, he did say that its a big controversy though and asked the question regarding how its being dealt with. The liberal media spun this into him siding with those who question obama's birth. They clearly cant see how he places his words so they can go either way. Talking about the question of the controversy is what a JOURNALIST should do. The left would rather silence the topic rather than address a widespread controversy, a current events talking point.

that's like saying: Well, because people believe that the earth is flat, we should give them some air time (if enough of them gather around and make a fuss about it), no matter how FACTUALLY incorrect they are (and demonstrably so, even).
Sorry but giving coverage to something not only unimportant but a DISTRACTION to the real issues is, in a sense, promoting it. Unless he was ultimately explicit in his ridicule of such an obviously WRONG ideology, he's, as they say "a part of the problem".
NwZ2 2 years ago
@NwZ2 Dear Nw72, do you honestly wish to compare a current political controversy during a time of heightened political corruption, regarding president with a controversial and yet very vague past, to the ancient belief that the world was flat? Do you honestly wish to use that as your argument? Science can prove the world is round, it is something everyone can see with their own eyes. Can the same be said for Obama's birth? I think not. I pity the person who does not question everything (wisdom).
Shiftfallout 2 years ago 4
Compare? They are in and of the same thing: sheer lunacy.
He's already shown his documentation, beyond all reasonable expectations (whens';t eh last time YOU"VE whipped out your birth certificate to satisfy customers you may or may not serve on a job? Exactly).
It's a classical racist argument: black people are bad, therefore anything that they've accomplished is illegitimate. No, i'm not making this shit up: it's history. Pick up a book; "Birthers" is yet another incarnation of it.
NwZ2 2 years ago
To clarify: you *can* disagree with the man's policies. You can also disagree with the man himself (as a person). But to say that you can call him Illegitimate (not in the same way Bush was, because it wasn't disputed if he was even AMERICAN) without being racist when SUCH an act against the very first black (bi-racial) president amidst SUCH historical contexts, is irresponsibility at its finest. It's akin to saying you can be a Nazi without anti-Semitic. Perhaps, but only in la-la-land.
NwZ2 2 years ago
Ah how it is Racist to question Obama's Birth Certificate?. Where is the hard evidence of that? I am black BTW so please enlighten me? Also McCain's Birth status also came into question.
xxashyy 2 years ago
you weren't reading. It's been a HISTORICAL fact AND precedent to question the legitimacy of black achievements by Racists, much in the same way Nazi's in Germany set the historical precedent of being anti-Semitic via the HOLOCAUST. It's simple: it's irresponsible. PLUS, even DESPITE this sickening display of a deficiency of class, Obama *still* showed his birth certificate and thus it's general knowledge that he's an American citizen (hence why it's comparable to flat-earthers).
NwZ2 2 years ago
No it's simply asking a question. Why jump to conclusion without real facts? The problem with liberals calling people "Racists" without the facts is that you guys tend to water that word down and "cry wolf". Everything is Racist to you people.
xxashyy 2 years ago
Dude, you're just an ass. Get the fuck out.
After I went through the trouble of explaining, in INTRICATE detail my argument, you merely respond by saying "no it isn't". No analysis, no historical facts, NOTHING. You're a troll and nothing more and I don't appreciate having my time wasted by such disingenuous individuals. When you want to participate in a REAL conversation (See: fair), come back. Till then, the adults are trying to have a discussion.
NwZ2 2 years ago
No it's simply your "arguments" make no sense. You basically called me "self hating" at the same time you said that race is a "social construct". How can I be "self hating" when there is no such thing as race?
xxashyy 2 years ago
It came into question, but not as a matter of race but of technicality. Hence why that issue came and WENT with little to no exposure. HOwever, Obama showed his birth certificate and yet there are (many) people who are NOT SATISFIED> It's clear that their intentions/actions serve as an outlet for their xenophobic bigotry. C'mon man, its called a fucking inference (via observation of empirical facts coupled with reasoned argument, also known as HISTORY).
NwZ2 2 years ago
Also: it's been demonstrated that you can racist against your own race (which is LOL cause race is a social construct anyway). So don't think that you saying you're black precludes you from such racist sentiments (it's also a historical precedent of blacks hating each other and themselves due to racist ideologies brain-washing them. See: Malcolm X).
NwZ2 2 years ago
So just because I say that the people challenging Obama aren't racist. That makes me self hating? That's retarded. That's like saying if a White man said that time is 3:30 and if I agreed with it im a self hating racist because I simply agreed with him. See how DUMB that sounds? And race is a "social construct" at the same time? Man you people on here are extremely ridiculous.
xxashyy 2 years ago
Everything I've labored to express to you has gone over your head. Feel free to reread my comments until you're able to satisfactorily understand the point I was making. Until then, stop wasting our time.
Also, just SAYING something is doesn't make it so: you present no argument nor historical facts to back up your point. Your ahistorical attempt at armchair analysis leaves much to be desired.
NwZ2 2 years ago
Did a black studies professor or a white liberal tell you the race is a "social construct"? Because thats an out right lie.
xxashyy 2 years ago
Rofl. Without anything of substance to say, you resort to attemping to bait me out. I'm at a loss for words; you claim you're a black man but you represent yourself in such a shameful manner.
Race *is* a social construct (if you're aware of the meaning of the phrase). Race has no scientific backing whatsoever as a means of demarcation between what is, rightfully so, the HUMAN RACE. It's a construct that has its history (and hence CREATION) some ~400 odd years ago. Like I said: pick up a book.

You know get it right otherwise its propaganda ?
boots920 2 years ago
"I ... have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen," Health Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino said in a brief statement. "I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago." (tinyurl*com/nvulvt as taken from FN) The propaganda is is coming solely from birthers.
sleonardelli 2 years ago
Nope she never said "verifying"
Even if Obama was born in Hawaii his father was a Kenyan National. When a child is born from two different parents the child travels on the father's passport until the child becomes of age and applies for his mother's citizenship.
Unless both parents were US citizens then the child is a Natural Born US Citizen Book.
As for Island girl she never states that Obama's long form is Hawaiian.
boots920 2 years ago
1 st STATEMENT BY DR. CHIYOME FUKINO
Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawaii, along with the Registrar of Vital
Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have
personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of Health has Sen. Obamas
original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.
boots920 2 years ago
You are a looney toon who relies too much on birther propaganda. Obama is NATURAL BORN solely because HE WAS BORN IN HAWAII. He held dual-citizenship (US/British) until he was 21. Keep listening to Orly because she's a loon as well.
sleonardelli 2 years ago
Dual Citizenship means the best Obama could do is a "Naturalized US Citizen"
Naturalized US Citizens can hold any political title except that of POTUS. Why because there's too many flag conflicts.
Emmerich de Vattel's The Law of Nations was key in framing the United States as the world's first constitutional republic.
Sen Res 511 - "Both parents" = Natural Born
McCain wasn't eligible either so the politicians just make it up and print it up as they go.

STATEMENT BY DR. CHIYOME FUKINO
There have been numerous requests for Sen. Barack Hussein Obamas official birth certificate.
State law (Hawaii Revised Statutes §338-18) prohibits the release of a certified birth certificate
to persons who do not have a tangible interest in the vital record.
Question : Do Taxpayers of the USA have a tangible interest in Obama's birth certificate.
