A U.S. Marine squad was marching north of Fallujah when they came upon an Iraqi terrorist, badly injured and unconscious. On the opposite side of the road was an American Marine in a similar but less serious state. The Marine was conscious and alert and as first aid was given to both men, the squad leader asked the injured Marine what had happened.

The Marine reported, "I was heavily armed and moving north along the highway here, and coming south was a heavily armed insurgent. We saw each other and both took cover in the ditches along the road. I yelled to him that Saddam Hussein was a miserable, lowlife scum bag who got what he deserved, and he yelled back that Ted Kennedy is a fat, good-for-nothing, left wing liberal drunk who doesn't know how to drive. So I said that Osama Bin Laden dresses and acts like a frigid, mean-spirited lesbian! He retaliated by yelling, "Oh yeah? Well, so does Nancy Pelosi!"

"And, there we were, in the middle of the road, shaking hands, when a truck hit us."

With a court hearing scheduled for tomorrow, Lucas Smith, the owner of a certified copy of a Kenyan birth certificate purported to belong to one Barrack Hussein Obama, has testified, under threat of perjury, that said document is the true birth certificate of pResident Obama. Will it stand up to scrutiny? I have no idea.

I DO find it telling, however, that Mr. Obama has still refused to release his long-form Hawaiian Birth Certificate....or ANY other personal record, for that matter.

I don't want to believe that even the DNC would be so lax as to allow a Constitutionally unqualified person to run, much allow him to be seated as POTUS. While Mr. Obama seems to regard the issue as a matter of his personal privacy, it behooves ANYONE who aspires to be the Chief Executive of this country to be as open as possible to the People in his past activities and associations, not to mention his BASIC qualifications. I can't get a job as a delivery truck driver without my past being reviewed, to include a birth certificate; the office of POTUS should require at least as stringent a review, shouldn't it?

With a scheduled hearing date Tuesday, Lucas Smith, the man who tried to sell an alleged Barack Obama Kenyan birth certificate on eBay, has filed court papers in a high-profile eligibility case insisting – under threat of perjury – that the Obama birth certificate in his possession is the genuine article. (emp. mine D)

Smith filed his affidavit through California attorney Orly Taitz, who has spearheaded several lawsuits challenging Barack Obama's constitutional eligibility to serve as president.

Taitz posted on her blog Smith's declaration, which claims he obtained the alleged birth certificate from Coast General Hospital in Mombasa, Kenya, and insists it's real.

"The true and correct photocopy of the birth certificate obtained is attached to this affidavit as Exhibit A," the declaration reads. "I declare, certify, verify, state and affirm under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the foregoing statements of fact and descriptions of circumstances and events are true and correct."

Smith's affidavit, which includes a copy of the certificate, has been filed with Judge David Carter of the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. Carter is scheduled to preside over a hearing on the case on Sept. 8.

Taitz stated she believes the swiftly approaching court date prompted Smith into action:"He has been in touch with me for quite a while, and he emailed me the document with his signature," Taitz said. "I think he was trying to figure out the most expedient way to bring his message public, and maybe he felt that because I have a hearing coming, that would be the most expedient way."

Taitz hopes the court will order expedited discovery, a ruling that would open many of Obama's currently sealed documents, including his college records and Hawaiian long-form birth certificate, to court scrutiny.

"We'll see what happens on Tuesday. If Judge Carter has the guts, we may move very fast," Taitz told WND. "If expedited discovery is ordered, I'll be dashing to Occidental College and then be on a flight to Hawaii."

In his filing, Smith declares that he traveled to Kenya in February and paid off a military officer in order to obtain a copy of the birth certificate from Coast General Hospital in Mombasa. The declaration also states that the hospital administrator signed and sealed the copy, which indicates Obama's birth in Africa on Aug. 4, 1961, at 7:24 p.m.

Mr Smith's reputation is such that it does bring serious questions about the documents authenticity, but as he puts it:"It took a guy like me to go and get tangible proof about Obama. I don't mind breaking a few laws or policies here and there. I don't mind paying the military in foreign countries to look the other way ... The military [in Africa] will grant you access to anything for just a few dollars. People are starving. So yes, it takes a guy like me to get things done once in a while."

I DON'T want to be a "Birther"; conspiracy theories generally leave me unimpressed by their adherent's common sense generally and intelligence specifically. Having said that, it still has to give one pause when you consider that:

A. IF Mr. Smith is a fraud, it will easily be found out, and the consequences will not be good for Mr. Smith. (the general perjury statute under Federal law provides for a prison sentence of up to five years)

B. Mr. Smith no longer has any monetary gain to be made on his insistence that the document is genuine; it's been released into the public domain now, so he can't sell it for profit as he originally intended.

C. pResident Obama could easily refute this claim by releasing his Hawaiian Birth Certificate and other records.

Now ask yourself, WHY would a person risk five years in Federal Prison for no personal gain; while the person under investigation is concurrently expending hundreds of thousands of dollars and attorney man hours by 11 different law firms to keep the requested information from public view?

Admittedly, maybe Mr. Smith just wants notoriety, but five years in prison seems a large price to pay for 15 minutes of fame...
You don't have to be a conspiracy theorist to smell the smoke of a huge fire, or a large rat lurking in the dark recesses of the White House .

The document below is alleged by Lucas Smith to be Barack Obama's original, authentic birth certificate from Kenya. Judge for yourself. I believe it warrants at least a closer examination of the qualifications of the man who would be our Leader.

A truly exceptional video about exceptionalism, by the great Bill Whittle.

Mr. Whittle breaks it down to show just how exceptional the United States of America truly is, and refutes every major talking point of the Left on their accusations of how we are "an Imperialist Empire", or "we rob our wealth from the poorer nations", or "we are a nation of stupid people". (I've often wondered how we can rob so many nations of their wealth by being a stupid people -- that statement seems counter-intuitive to me..., as far as Empire goes; I was born in a country totally devastated and decimated by WW2, if not for the U.S., it would still be at least a second world type of situation there; instead it's thriving, and due in large part to the generosity of the American people combined with the great work ethic of the Dutch people {point of pride for me here, Holland was the ONLY country to have totally repaid it's war debt to the U.S.})

You can't make up stuff better than this!

Isn't politics grand?

HURRAH FOR THE DEMOCRATS!

Jesse Jackson's Newest Staff Member

Mel Reynolds

Jesse Jackson has added former Chicago Democrat

Congressman Mel to Rainbow/PUSH Coalition's payroll.

Reynolds was among the 176 criminals excused

in President Clinton's
last-minute forgiveness spree.

Reynolds received a commutation of his six-and-a-half-year
federal sentence for 15 convictions of wire fraud, bank fraud,

and lies to the Federal Election Commission.

He is more notorious, however, for concurrently serving

five years for sleeping with an underage campaign volunteer.

This is a first in American politics: An ex-congressman who had

sex with a subordinate...won clemency from a president who had

sex with a subordinate...then was hired by a clergyman who had

sex with a subordinate!

His new job?

Ready for this??

IS THIS A GREAT COUNTRY OR WHAT?

"No law ever written has stopped any robber, rapist or killer, like cold blue steel in the hands of their last intended victim." --W. Emerson Wright

And that's exactly what it all comes down to; in the end we are all responsible for our own defense, and the moment we forget that basic fact of life is the moment we become subject to any number of other fallacious tenets.
