Birthers debunked by their own evidence.

I recently found this image of Barack Obama's Indonesian school files on a comment posted by a "Birther" on the Houston Chronicle's website.

The commenter claimed that "Bangsa" means "Citizenship", I cannot confirm or deny that Bangsa does in fact mean Citizenship in Indonesian, however what the "Birthers" have failed to notice is that written on line 2 is the word, HONOLULU, followed by his date of birth.

What else could the type written words preceding Honolulu mean other than Place and Date of Birth?

So lets recap the score - President Obama - Too many to count.

Batshit Crazies - BIG FAT ZERO.

Sarah Palin: Candidate or Crazy

According to the Associated Press, Sarah Palin's post-gubernatorial debut in the Lower 48 states is closed to the media, so my question is "Sarah, what are you on?". There has been much speculation as to what Sarah from Alaska will do following her early departure from the Governor's Mansion at the weekend. Will she or won't she run for the Presidency in 2012? Will she run as an independent? Or will she ditch politics altogether?

Palin has been the butt of many jokes, including impersonations by Tina Fey and more recently William Shatner. But will she be a joke in 2012?

Palin is uninformed, undisciplined and not a confident public speaker, so I can see why people would discount her as a potential candidate for the White House in 2012. If she decided to ditch the Republican Party and stand as an independent, she wouldn't stand a cat in hell's chance at winning the Oval Office, however don't count her out just yet. We have two more years until the republican primaries, so I wouldn't be suprised if Sarah from Alaska goes on a tour of the Lower 48 states and learns a hell of alot of stuff she doesn't know now and gains alot more supporters.

British Bookmakers have her at 10-1 odds of winning in 2012 but [if she decided to run] she would be running against a Democratic incumbent who won his first election with a sweeping landslide. Unless Barack Obama does something really stupid like NOT running, Sarah Palin doesn't stand a chance.

She is a renegade, she doesn't like to follow party instructions and she is a royal pain in the ass, but she has a loyal following and she will be around for a long time yet. No getting rid of a self-described "Hockey Mom" that easily.

My advice to Palin is LEARN, LEARN, LEARN.

"I surrender - Osama is that way"

On Monday, David Milliband MP, Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, stated in a speech to members of NATO, that he wants to talk to "Moderate" members of the Taliban, to encourage stability in the War torn Afghanistan region.

Mr Milliband's statement comes just days after the fourth anniversary of the Second of the London Bombings on July 21st 2005, and one of the worst month's for British Forces since the start of the conflict. Does this sound right to you? Milliband wants to talk peace, while our Boys and Girls come home in Flag draped coffins?

Well that is what he said! Mr Milliband thinks that moderate members of the Taliban exist? Does he think that they are just going to walk up to the nearest person shooting at them and say - "I join you - Osama is that way"? I say - What the hell?

What the hell happened to "The United Kingdom does not negotiate does not negotiate with terrorists"? And that is, plainly and simply, what they are! These are the people that coldly took over 3000 British and American lives on September 11, 2001. These are the people that have been killing our brave young men and women for the last 8 years. These are the people that taught six of our own Citizens, to strike with Bombs at the very heart of our Capital. These people are not moderate Mr Milliband, they are killing our soldiers.

This is why the staff here at The Atlantic Hopper have nominated the Foreign Secretary for a coveted spot on "Jackass of the Week" on Common Sense with Jim Alger. Yes, that is right, Jackass of the Week, this was truly a Jackass thing for Mr Milliband to say.

Tune in to find out if David Milliband wins "Jackass of the Week". Common Sense with Jim Alger airs Friday at 7pm Eastern, 4pm Pacific and 12am London.

Birthers: Bite Me!

In recent weeks in the United States, the so-called "Birther" movement has been gaining momentum, even taking over a Republican Town Hall meeting with some crazy woman screaming at her representative "He is a Citizen of Kenya... I want My Country Back".

They are of course talking about President Barack Hussein Obama, who none of us could fail to have noticed, was elected to office by a sweeping landslide in November 2008. If you haven't noticed this fact, please go crawl back under the rock that you crawled out from underneath. Their claim is that despite having produced a legitimate Hawaiian Birth Certificate, despite having a United States Passport and despite having passed the Secret Service background checks that Presidential Candidates have to go through to be considered as a candidate, that Barack Obama was not born in the United States, he was born in Kenya.

Robert Gibbs, White House Press Secretary, gave the claims even more unwarranted attention the following day by saying, "President Barack Obama is a Citizen of the greatest Country on the face of this Earth."

The "Birthers" claim that President Barack Obama handed to the electoral authorities, none other than a "fake" Birth Certificate. And that two Honolulu newspapers that carried announcements of Obama's birth in August of 1961 are also forgeries.

Nothing that anyone can say or do will ever appease these Batshit Crazies. Nothing will ever convince them that Obama is not part of the largest conspiracy in living memory. Obama is a natural born citizen of the United States of America, and has proven it several times. He was born in HONOLULU!

My message to these "Batshit Crazies" is ..............................................BITE ME!
