    People who live in glass houses, even if they are the Trump Tower, should not throw stones.
    This is from TIME online (also saw it on CNN). The writeup was so good I had to copy it in its entirety.

    So should Trump put his birth certificate where his big mouth is... or what? lol

    Birther Backlash: Turns Out, Donald Trump's 'Birth Certificate' Isn't Legitimate


    Read more: http://newsfeed.time.com/2011/03/29/bir … z1I18Yk600

    You know what they say about karma, Donald.
    After making a to-do about President Obama's so-called failure to produce a valid birth certificate (really? still?), Donald Trump graciously went out of his way to put everyone's mind at ease by producing his own.

    (More on TIME.com: Birther was a top buzzword of 2009)

    However, Politico is reporting that the document Trump has produced isn't an official document, merely a hospital "certificate of birth." Whoops!  An official birth certificate can only be issued by the Department of Health, reports Politico, and "would have the agency's seal and also a signature of the city registrar - neither of which the Trump document has."

    The document Trump produced reads "Jamaica Hospital" at the top and the date of birth of a Donald Trump. It's possible the document is from the Jamaica Hospital in Queens, but who can know for sure? He doesn't have the official document in his hands.

    Sure, Trump's birthplace may be somewhat of a mystery. But NewsFeed doesn't think we'll ever answer the true, years-old question — what, exactly, is up with the hair?  (via Politico)

    Trump isn't president, so there are no requirements for him to release that information to the public.  Last I checked the Constitution, he could state his opinion without accountability.
    Time for everyone to get over this.  Even if there was proof Obama was not born in the U.S., it would drag out in the courts til 2012 when it would be a moot point since he won't be reelected. smile

    Of course there is no requirement that Trump produce his birth certificate for any official purpose.
    But given as he has made the Obama birth certificate a personal crusade, and given that he more than likely wouldn't be butting his stupid hair into this issue unless he had designs on running for POTUS himself, one would think he'd come to the debate armed for bear.

    My point in posting this news from the TIME news site is to show that it's not just the "NPR lefty-clones" who are seeing the irony in this story.

      THANKS for posting Might Mom. I fully get the point. Trump started this mess that is turning out to be a total train reck on whatever little credibility he have left.

      NO BODY ask Trump to put his birth papers in the public spot light. Look's like He smoke and drink rum one night,  wakeup the next morning and decide he was going to prove his Birther point once and for all, only to produce a piece of paper that is NOT authentic and further muddy the situation for him.

      BOTTOM Line: Trump is runing for president and is doing this to appeal to the GOP Birther Base to get him thru the process. The propblem is, should he emerge victorious this will haunt him in the general election and he will end up like Sharon Angle in Nevada.

        FYI   Interesting to note.   Donald Trump has never had a taste of alcohol in his life because he watched a brother waste his life to alcohol.

        It's clear this is a very painful subject for Democrats.  It'll be nice when its all over.

            It says Soetero on his birth certificate because he was adopted by a man named Soetero and in Hawaii the name change is mandatory.

            He is Something Soetero, not Barack Hussein Obama.   He probably decided when he was a pot smoking teenager to rebel and go with Barack Hussein Obama instead of his legal name.   He should have made the name Obama his legal name a long time ago.  I don't think it matters legally what his name is.  But I guess he just doesn't want to deal with it.

            Gerald Ford was born Leslie Lynch King Jr. but his name was changed when he was adopted.

            You know what honesty and clarity is good for the soul.   It is painful and harmful to live with secrets.

                  I was talking about this one:

                  "He probably decided when he was a pot smoking teenager to rebel and go with Barack Hussein Obama instead of his legal name.   He should have made the name Obama his legal name a long time ago.  I don't think it matters legally what his name is.  But I guess he just doesn't want to deal with it."

                  You assume quite a lot there.
                  If you say it enough does it make it true?
                  Nice how you threw in the pot-smoking, rebellious teenager...

                  Kind of reminds me of Russsshhhh's oldie but goodie:
                  "Pot-smoking, draft-dodging Philanderer-in-Chief"
                  Ahhhh, the original President-Basher. Such a great American. NOT.

                  And btw, have you read TranceFormation of America?

                  LOT of stuff in there about ole Gerald Ford.....not nice stuff either....speaking of secrets and good for the soul and all that....

                  Geuss it works all ways, but I'd keep the assuming out of it if I were you.

        Okay, i was with you until you got to your "bottom line" statement.  First of all, what exactly are you basing this idea that Trump even wants to be President?  This is almost as absurd when there were rumors that Rush Limbaugh wanted to run for political office as well.  By the way, how did that rumor turn out?  Don't answer that, as that's a rhetorical question.  Anyways, Trump is one of the most powerful businessmen in America right now, and he's a multi-billionaire. Therefore, why would he want to run for a job where makes potentially less money, and has less power than he has right now?  Trump has way more power in this country than O'Bama does, and he doesn't have to worry about public opinion when making controversial business moves.  Whereas O'Bama he has to some degree answer to Congress and the American public.  Therefore, I doubt seriously Trump even wants to be president, as I would imagine that would be a huge step down for him.  Not saying that the President's job is a joke, but lets face it.  Big corporations and businesses are the real leaders of this country, as they have the most money and the most power.  that's just reality.

    Now that The Donald has produced his 'LEGAL' Birth Certificate', all those Band-Waggoners who were salivating at the 'ILLEGALITY' of Donald Trump's Hospital Birth Record, had better take some time to realize that this is exactly what The Donald had intended, all along. 

    Those folk, so quick to judgement on the 'Legality' of Donald Trump's Hospital Birth Record, have been asking the Country, to accept, for the past 2 years, the same Birth Record, so far supplied by the Obama folk. 

    These are no longer 'Freudian-Slips', these are 'Freudian-Panties'. Get a hold of the 'Panty-Waist' & pull-up- hard & quick.

      Dude.. it was a joke. I don't care where the hell Donald Trump was hatched. I mean I realize this is a personal crusade for some, but can't you find some other "deconstructive" anti-Obama topic to harp on? Take Lady Love's lead if you need a suggestions.

      Trump brought this up to test the waters - see if he could get a rise out of the Tea Partiers - and it worked. Truthfully, Trump is Tea Party material. I am quite sure the "Party" will be able to overlook his shitty personal life, his questionable business dealings - his hair loll... Trump is the Ross Perot of 2012 - if he runs.

      Honestly I am all for running him. Add Palin or Bachmann in the mix and the Dems are guaranteed to take it all in 2012.

    "OK, if we assume you are correct, Who are his co-conspirators? There is no way a man acting on his own could hood-wink the whole state mechanism into believing he is something that he isn't." You are right. Maybe not exactly appropriate to the discussion right here but as far as I am concerned his co-conspirators are more like than not the CIA. In this case it is not only quite possible, it is the rule.

    DannyMaioposted 13 years ago

    Michelle's comment exposes just how ambiguous the whole Obama nativity myth really is. His Kenyan grandmother calls him a son of the soil. Newspapers in Africa say he is Kenyan-born. One of his friends, Tammy Duckworth said he was born in Indonesia. His mother's whereabouts at the time of his birth can't be confirmed. The state of Hawaii uses doublespeak to claim Obama is legit, but without specifically saying his alleged COLB is genuine. Why?? They refuse to authenticate his certificate number despite having statutory and discretionary authority under vital records laws and the state's sunshine laws. The state of Hawaii has even lied about it's own disclosure rules to avoid dealing with Obama's birth questions. There's strong evidence Obama was adopted by Lolo Soetoro and may have legally retained his adopted surname and Indonesian citizenship into adulthood. The state of Hawaii has procedurally admitted that Obama's birth records were amended and thus, what he presents via jpg has to have been forged. Then we can get into the natural born citizenship issue which precludes Obama because of his British/Kenyan father. The list goes on and on. Let's just get all the truth out and not have to guess.

    Being in an Obama-trance with heads in the sand does not serve this country well. It's time to wake up and quit carrying water for a fraud.
