So Adib, I checked out your blog. looks like the same as what you said here. My problem with this is that it doesn't sound like you did any research to Lakin at all. I'm not sure why ANYone would invite a court marshall with 2 years left for full military retirement bennies.. doesn't make any sense. and just a little research on what obama has done to cover, as opposed to being 'transparent' has to raise an eyebrow. ad hominem is never a good way to go if you want someone to take you seriously.

@gee100 (cont from last comment) Obviously I am not an Obama lover but nor am I an Obama hater.When I disagree with something he does I gain supporters by presenting clear well documented facts. If I tried to win a debate with a bunch of so-called 'conspiracy theories' I would not be taken seriously at all and would loss credibility, as I should.All I'm saying is if you want to gain supporter for your ultimate cause, which is to throw Obama out of office use a more air tight argument.Kapish!?!

@adibraoof (cont'd) and the naturalized vs natural born point is valid. .. otherwise it wouldn't be part of the requirements for POTUS. one can't go making light of something like that. if the founders thought it was important enough to put in, it should be improtant enough to take seriously.

[adibraoof]

@gee100 I agree that the naturalized vs natural born point is valid and should be taken seriously BUT the fact is that the media has convinced the majority of the public that the Birthers are cookoo and what they believe is a 'conspiracy theory'. Once your cause is ushered into the relm of 'conspiracy theories' you are looked upon as a novelty in the eyes of would be supporters. It's sad but true.

[gee100]

@adibraoof I have to agree with you on that one. The media drives a lot of beliefs the general public holds, but that opens a whole different can of worms. who controls the media? It's not as unbiased as it is supposed to be. for me, whenever I hear the 'news' calling folks cooks, and nutjobs, etc. they are obviously trying to hide something that has gotten out to the masses. but there also shows the level of involvement of the general masses.. too gullible and not nearly critical enough!

[adibraoof]

@gee100 Right on! I try not to put a labels on myself because once people believe you are on a particular team or side they tend to instantly rally with you or against you without taking a moment to think. I make people think. I don't wear labels or demand allegiance. I educate in terms that I know they value and whether we completely agree or not we become allies because they trust me.

@adibraoof (cont'd)I don't like john mccain any better than obama,but considering his birth issues that were brought up, when asked for his docs.. at a senate hearing. . he brought them up without hesitation. the juxtaposition between the to on this matter is massive. (cont'd)

[gee100]

@adibraoof .. well, I agree with you on attacking on his policies.. I just don't understand how asking questions throws the discussion into the realm of 'conspiracy theories'. if you ask for a long form, and he denies.. and he spends 1mill +, he's obviously hiding something. asking what shouldn't get a person pigeon-holed. (cont'd)

[gee100]

@aandjinspires .. so.. here's a scenario. you're married, kids, 2 years from retirement. who/what could make you put all those years on the line ? I can tell you as much as I opposed something.. me personally would not put that on the line... at all... 'course I'm not military. It's hard to think an 18 year veteran could allow himself to be used to the peril of his lifes work, his future lifes work, his wife and kids. in my thinking, has to be something stronger than that.

[adibraoof]

@gee100 (cont for last comment) the increase of redistribution of wealth through government programs, or the fact Obama continues the legacy of our former President by not securing our borders in order to gain political capital.Or the fact that his administration broke its promise to be transparent about all dealing in the house and the senate that do not pose security risks.I can go on and about legitimate reasons why he should not be reelected with air tight facts to match(cont in next reply)

[adibraoof]

@gee100 That last comment was mine also. I used our other account.

Dear Birthers,

There is the slight possibility that your theories about the President's citizenship may be true. If they are true that means that he is a evil man that should not be in power. So in order to get this theoretically evil man out of office you decide to go with the 'weak' non-naturalized citizen theory as your reason.Why don't you go after him about the issues that are well document like(cont in next reply)
