Dingbats on Parade, Virginia Style
March 16, 2009 by Mark Brooks
Just when you thought the story of President Obama’s birth certificate was solved, looniness rears its ugly head right here in Virginia. Is Obama a ‘natural-born US citizen’? I am 100% sure he is, but there is at least one person that thinks that this is a litmus test issue for the upcoming Attorney General of Virginia campaign of John Brownlee, a Republican running for that office.
Among other issues such as Life and Traditional Marriage, I addressed a concern I had regarding the Constitutional requirement that a President be a “natural born citizen”. This Constitutional issue concerning Barack Obama has been completely ignored by…well, by everyone who has the power to do something about it.
I pointed out how this was an issue for Senator McCain last spring and right or wrong, the Senate unanimously* passed a resolution (SRS 511) declaring Senator McCain was “natural born” partly because he was born to US Citizen parents (PLURAL…both parents were US Citizens at the time of his birth). Yet when questions arose concerning Obama’s “natural born” citizenship, everybody was silent…and still is.
Obama readily admits his father was not a US citizen at his birth. He readily admits he had dual citizenship at birth. How can he be considered a “natural born” citizen (I’m not saying he’s not a US citizen, I’m saying there is serious doubt over him being “natural born”) when both of his parents were not US citizens? There was also grave concern over Obama’s hiding his vault copy of his Birth Certificate. Even with that aside, there is clearly a concern over this Constitutional requirement.
Now, I am no Constitutional scholar or anything, but even I know that Barack Obama is not an immigrant. For one thing, a distinction is being made here that sure, his mother was a citizen…but…
For the party that usually concerns itself with so-called ‘anchor babies’, this seems a little strange. Isn’t this the reverse? Is this person actually saying that since President Obama had only one parent who was a citizen, that he is not natural-born? I am giving myself a headache. I have to admit, I hadn’t seen this wrinkle before. The birthers, as they are widely called, are down to one court case to prove their assertion that President Obama is not qualified to be President of the United States.
Here, let me have the blogger continue with the daydream:
What was Brownlee’s reply? Well, Mr. Obama is our president now, and we need to focus on the issues…that’s where the debate needs to be. WHAT?
When I learned that this man was a Federal Prosecutor and he demonstrated to me this kind of apathy towards defending the Constitution and seeking the truth in the matter, I was appalled. While it seems that this man has a lot of good qualities, I don’t see how on earth anyone can vote for him as our next Attorney General, given his experience as a prosecutor and a military man (which he touts so readily) and his complete lack of concern for the Rule of Law…our US Constitution.
Now here is a couple of points for Mr. Brownlee, for seeing things like they are, you know, facts. There was one more sort of parenthetical insert at the end of the post:
*Point of Interest: The Co-Sponsors of this Senate Resolution included both Senator Hillary Clinton and Senator Barack Obama. Hmm. Makes me wonder if there was some political back-scratching here…we declare you Natural Born, you turn a deaf ear to BO’s Natural Born status…deal? Apparently so…because not a single Senator has stuck his/her neck out on this issue as it relates to Barack Obama.
(emphasis in all quotes appear in original)
There’s a reason for that, my dear fellow blogger. There is no problem to look into. I suggest a nice class on the Constitution. That should clear up your congestion.

YOU MAY THINK THE ANOINTED ONE HAS A BIRTH CERTIFICATE. BUT WHY WON’T HE RELEASE HIS APPLICATION PAPERS TO OCCIDENTAL COLLEGE. WHAT HE FORGOT WAS THAT, THE SCHOOL NEWSPAPER HASN’T BEEN “QUASHED” BY HIS LEGAL MINIONS. aND, IN AN EDITION PUBLISHED WHEN HE WAS IN ATTENDANCE, THERE IS A LITTLE NOT ABOUT ONE “..BARRY SOETERO, A FOREIGN STUDENT, IS RECEIVING FOREIGN AID.
THEN THE ANOINTED ONE IS SO STUPID THAT HE DECLARES HE RECEIVED HIS FIRST PASSPORT WHILE IN THE US SENATE, BUT ALSO SAID IN HIS “MEMOIR” THAT HE VISITED KENYA AND INDONESIA.
WHERE IS THAT PASSPORT OR DID HE DO SOMETHING ILLEGAL.
AND WHERE IS THE PASSPORT THAT HE SHOULD HAVE HAD WHEN HIS MOMMA SHIPPED HIM FROM INDONESIA TO HAWAII–BUT KEPT HIS HALF-SISTER, MAYA?
“OH WHAT WEBS WE WEAVE WHEN FIRST WE PRACTICE TO DECEIVE.” AND, BELIEVE ME, HE HAS HAD LOTS OF PRACTICE.

Completely agree with you, it’s obviously a cover up sanctioned by those higher up the food chain.
It stinks’ to high heaven, and why are the media complicit in this cover up, of what is a basic requirement in the American constitution?
I noticed when Obama gave one speech he jested about not coming from some other world, there was his opportunity to kill there and then the debarcle over his birth certificate, he failed in this.
Stranger still, in the UK there hasn’t even been a whisper regarding any of this, were you to ask the average person on the street they’d look at you as if you’d flidded your lid.
The Western world in general is weaving a web of deceit, prior to his election it infuriated me to see, that the BBC again abused it’s own charter relating to impartiality in political matters, by setting up on it’s homepage a begging bowl for funds to send off to this pretender. thus interfering in the politics of the USA.
The 50×50 guy was planted in the White house for a reason, which no doubt will become clearer in the coming months’.
