To say that Obama is a bad American is not to cast doubt upon either his citizenship or his birthplace. While the inept forgery that the White House attempted to pass off as his birth certificate does tend to raise questions, the larger problem is that the erstwhile eater of dogs appears to have a more tenuous grasp on America and what it means to be an American than the average European whose only exposure to the country was MTV and re-runs of “Dallas.”
Indeed.

Barry is not a bad American who doesn’t “get” America. That implies incompetence. He’s not incompetent. He’s getting every single thing he wants, while golfing.
Barry is a -saboteur-. He’s trying to BREAK America with the hammer of Debt, and he’s doing it.
He may or may not be a space alien, I’m open on that front.
I’d like to see them scrap one of the potus debates and substitute a grade five level geography and history test of both candidates. The fact is Obama lived most of his early life outside the continental US.
Frankly, I think the opinion of anyone with “Birther tendencies” should be ignored outright: it ranks with Protocols of the Elders of Zion nonsense, silly Freemason conspiracies, Who Killed JFK and, of course, 9/11 Truther rubbish.
There is plenty of room for a perfectly sane discussion of Obama’s strengths and weaknesses without making oneself seem ridiculous by obsessing over birth certificates.
By the way, Christian fundamentalists, the same is true for Romney. The Mormon issue is irrelevant.
You certainly have the right to ignore an opinion to which you disagree, together with he who expressed it. Where you seem to parallel the left’s mindset is in suggesting to everyone to also ignore anything to which you disagree. The difference between the birther issue and Romney being a Morman is that being Morman does not disqualify one from being POTUS. To suggest, after all the unanswered questions about Obama and the fact that his last BC document was a forgery, that any debate on the subject falls outside the definition of “perfectly sane discussion”, is quite frankly, a mystery.
The idea that Obama somehow managed to slip his place of birth past the vetting of the US constitutional and electoral process is as ridiculous in its conspiratorial overtones as the notion that Bush somehow toppled the Twin Towers.

You have unearthed the unspoken truth, Mr. Phantom. In the business Barry is in, he has proved himself to be a roaring success.

***********************************
I’m sure most people couldn’t care about his BC.
What makes so many question everything about this guy is simple.
He HIDES everything about his past.
They claim he’s so smart, yet refuses to show his college papers. If “you” had paid any attention about his past, what little we can find, it’s not hard to see he never did much of anything. Except smear others, when he wanted their job.
I would give up the rose colored glasses if I was you.
Since you’re quoting Vox Day on politics, make sure you note his deliberate test to see how many people read, and comment on, a “serious” subject like economics, versus an “unsophisticated” subject like politics: http://voxday.blogspot.com/2012/07/humanity-is-spared.html

Notice how many times Bush say’s I.
Unlike O-dumber who couldn’t stop saying I.
PS… in the words of Howard Dean (But the capture of Saddam has not made America safer)
Can we say the same for the death of OBL.
You know, using the same lib group think!
the choice has come down to Mormon or moron
I can’t get my head around the statement that his badly forged birth certificate is actually “raising a few questions”.
When did the idiot pool start caring that they are being lied to and abused by a criminal fraudster?
The fact Obama spent much of his formative years outside of the U.S. should explain much.
Once his college transcripts are released, the facts will be revealed.

yer not following the narrative….ya left out racist/ism………
I don’t know where Obama was born, not being a friend of the Obama family and never having travelled to Kenya in the early 1960’s.
I do hope some day the truth will come out on his college career. Perhaps the dear Prez was a mediocrity in every way,and his campaigners,who claim he’s “the most intelligent President ever” don’t want to see another expose of the Affirmative Action President.
I agree with the article,Obama just doesn’t “get” America,and he has no business trying to run a Country he doesn’t understand at all.
But I’m sure his puppet masters are quite pleased with his performance as they rake in the profits. Four more years of this disaster and you have to wonder if America will recover, or slip into third place in the ranks of the “Bigs” on this planet.
The link, which is well organized from an analytical point of view, and the previous comments, taken together, contain all of what needs to be said about Obama, particularly the last bit of the link: “And finally, Obama is bad for both America and the world.”
The greater question, IMO, is about America: I used to think that, if it weren’t for Britain and America, the world would be a pretty dark place; how can the slippage have been so great so fast? Eight short years ago, America had a mission, with a strong economy and a visionary president, if one that was unspectatular in news conferences (although his performance in May, 2009 — on the stage in Toronto with Bill “Nobody did anything about Rwanda, but I was the only one to apologize” Clinton, with Frank McKenna moderating, brought the crowd of 6,000 paying strong to its feet (with maybe 200 protesters across the street): “Democracy is hard; look at its history in my own country” — at least proved he could speak without a teleprompter.)
Is the light about to go out in America? According to the polls (www.realclearpolitics.com), Mr. Obama seems to be continuing to attract inordinate support. What are we (being the Anglosphere, and some others who may choose to come with us), going to do about it?
I’d suggest, as a very first step, that Mr. Romney hunker down and ask the first question (stealing a page from PMSH): “What kind of America do you want to live in?”
“…how can the slippage have been so great so fast?” – David Southam
Have you forgotten that Bush only beat the psychopathic Green zealot by a just a handful of votes in 2000?
The institutional left which includes the greens, Dem’s, labour (public sector in particular), academia, entertainment, mainstream media, and rent seeking corporate mutants, aren’t a new phenomenon. When Rand published Atlas Shrugged in 1956, she wasn’t being prescient about a phantom evil.
The US has always been a badly split nation but the left has become far more deranged since Clinton than any time in recent memory. The succession of progressive Presidents has been pretty consistent with Obama the most radical and perhaps Reagan the least (most conservative).
The birther rhetoric kills his credibility and that of Kate as well.
It appears the humour is too subtle for some.
BINGO Kate. (-:
Yet as I said before. When has a Prez in the last 70 years made such a effort to hide eveything about his past?
Dustoff >
How racist of you!
What’s wrong with having a black man in the highest office that produces badly faked birth certificates, spends 2 million dollars hiding his academic records, and associates himself with anti-white racists and convicted radical terrorists?
It’s “Change you can believe in”, to say otherwise means you want to kill little black babies. (And not in a proper liberal abortion factory either).
If the man was competent the birther issue would be a moot point by this time. Even the remote possibility of “Change you can believe in” can’t begin until he leaves office. If he get’s another term the country is toast.
Check out the author on his blog:
“I’m considering a literary experiment of sorts. I’m wondering how much more interest would be expressed in the dumbest, most lowbrow column I can get past the editors devoted to the simple and straightforward concept of Obama being bad. Bad for the nation. Bad for the world! Bad. So bad. I’m thinking of calling it: Obama is Bad. Subtitled: Obama is really and truly very bad for America.”

Even before he was elected his demur was decidedly UnAmeican. Like a trans-planted Immigrant whose only contact has been with one American City. Chicago. With no bearing on the overall culture or mannerisms of Normal USA citizens. Even without the Lingo down pat though, he talks well enough.
Its the colloquialism though that are the main Tell. All his come from speech’s by other Americas. They are not used in everyday speech. NO, this Dude is more Indonesian than he ever was American. More Islam than any form of Christianity anywhere.
More a 3rd World mentally than Western culture as a whole.
No wonder America is in danger.
This guy is a cuckoo bird. Its why deep down he hates the West. Doubt it? Just how many Nations have become Sharia compliant Sunni Muslim he has fought for? Why the silence on Coptic, Nigerian slaughter of Christians. The mainlining of Somali Muslims into North America while nothing is heard of the genocide by its Muslim cohorts, to-wards anyone not of Islam?
Its all a piece. Mean while he ignores & scorns the Europeans of The West or East as enemies. Degrading Israel all the way.
I’m on board with the space alien thing, and I have no reason to assume he’s stopped eating dogs. How would I know? I know he (claims he) used to eat them.
Anyway, he’s not super-smart. Wifey seems to be the one in charge of that marriage, and she isn’t even fluently literate, so don’t give me this “President Genius” cr@p.
Hiding his college papers to hide the fact he was not “so smart” ?
A diversion from the real thing in my opinion.
His college papers almost certainly contain a lot of anti-USA, anti-white, anti-Capitalism and other radical stuff.
the average democrat would forgive the “revelation” that he had poor grades in college,
but would they still vote for a man who used to hold ( still does but that is another ball game ) anti-USA radical views?
no one works that hard to hide poor grades, no one…
Canadian Friend >
Course not!
In fact poor grades and still making president would be his biggest ticket to the hearts & minds of the disenfranchised class.
A shameless grifter like himself would never pass up such an opportunity.
Michael Jackson …. was BAD …. Obama is just a turd
It ain’t about the birthplace, it’s about the father
