Are you serious? Too funny that so many know so little. What Obama relased was a live certificate of birth which anyone born anywhere can obtain in Hawaii within the first year of life. He has locked the real one away and spent millions to do that when a copy would cost $20. WHY? ROFLOL! Are you serious? Too funny that so many know so little.

You see those are all tags placed on people by other people. My ability has always to be able to judge people by their actions and the look in their eyes when they make a promise. I care not whether they are male, female or what political party they are from. I have never been able to LIE BIG ENOUGH to become top management, or to throw people under the bus because it would solve a problem or MAKE ME LOOK GOOD. I never voted for Bush, and I never voted for Obama. You see after voting for the Party for about 30 years... after Bush I decided to RESEARCH and select the BEST of TWO EVILS. Having served as a Combat Officer in the Army during Vietnam.. I develeoped a resent against those that ARE NOT LEADERS.. but politicians FIRST. Our current financial crisis is a result of ???? Everyone has an opinion BUT no one has a solution. I cringe at the thought of anyone making a promise regarding spending then LIES when it comes to making change. I cringe when I have a POTUS that disrespect our allies. I question the judgement of a POTUS that has weekly parties of Wednesday, becaue he can or eats 100 dollar per pound steak.. because he does not pay for it. I cringe when I see the First Lady creating a National Service Group to provide indoctrination to her and Obama as INDIVIDUALS not as a polittical but as a individuals. You see I learned the Constitution in High School, I learned about the History of my country in High School and College. I believed enought in my country that I volunteered for Vietnam and served proudly because I BELIEVED in our history and what that Constitution and Bill of Rights stood for. Today.. it is about Liberals, Conservatives, Rights, how I can get around the Constitution by using the law to insure that NO ONE can determine IF I am a Naturalized Citizen or not. I can spend 750 Million dollars on buying an election to become President so I can do as I want. Is America being CHANGED for the good of America, or because I Can make the changes that I BELIEVE IS RIGHT. I have never claimed to be overly bright regarding politics, or being left or right.
