 Rep. Marcia Blackburn |
U.S. Rep. Marsha Blackburn, a Tennessee Republican, has become the sixth co-sponsor of a proposal by Rep. Bill Posey, R-Fla., that would require documentation of eligibility from presidential candidates.
She has joined Reps. John Campbell, R-Calif.; John R. Carter, R-Texas; John Culberson, R-Texas; Bob Goodlatte, R-Va.; and Randy Neugebauer, R-Texas, in support Posey’s H.R. 1503 plan.
The bill’s provisions are simple:
“To amend the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 to require the principal campaign committee of a candidate for election to the office of President to include with the committee’s statement of organization a copy of the candidate’s birth certificate, together with such other documentation as may be necessary to establish that the candidate meets the qualifications for eligibility to the Office of President under the Constitution.”
It also provides:
“Congress finds that under section 1 of article II of the Constitution of the United States, in order to be eligible to serve as President, an individual must be a natural born citizen of the United States who has attained the age of 35 years and has been a resident within the United States for at least 14 years.”
The sponsors’ goal is to have the bill become effective for the 2012 presidential election, and it now is pending in a committee of the U.S. House of Representatives.

There’s a lot of strong women to be admired – Rep. Marsha Blackburn, Gov. Sarah Palin, Bachmann, Taitz, my wife. Have a Great Weekend! Zach

On Orly Taitz:
Although Taitz is a member of the California Bar, she’s not listed as a member of the American Bar Association (check for yourself). Nor is her “law school” (William Howard Taft University) accredited by the ABA. Because Taft is a distance-learning school only, Taitz’s degree entitles her, at most, to practice in California, as her school candidly admits.
Rules of attorney discipline forbid the practice of law without a license – i.e., without sitting for and passing the bar exam, after graduating from an ABA-accredited school. Her correspondence degree is a limited exception, only useful in California. So, any action in which she appeared as counsel of record outside the state would constitute practicing law without a license, in violation of California disciplinary rules. Has “Dr.” Taitz violated this rule? Does her appearance before the Supreme Court, in filing documents for the frivolous, since-dismissed case Lightfoot v. Bowen, therefore subject her to discipline?

Stoopid you’re not so much scared of Orly as you are of the truth.
Obama admitted on fightthesmears that he was born under British rule, so he can never be a natural born citizen, he’s not a president no matter how he’s packaged.
Friday, July 3, 2009 at 5:10 pm
bho boo,
No point in addressing stooptohate…he has an agenda he required to fulfill…His god BHO/Lucifer is pulling his strings and will continue to do so as long as stooptohate is useful in spreading the kind of hate and racism that BHO/Lucifer wants. So I will pray for him/her/it and leave it at that.
Friday, July 3, 2009 at 5:12 pm
yeah, he gets free sizzler coupons for the salad bar for every pro obama post he makes

Kristy,
Not to mention he gets “stiff” just thinking about his god BHO/Lucifer…LOL

Hey StopHate
We started writing a book !
Please spread the word around the internet to give us free publicity.
Like, “there is no book” “did you hear that obambi.com has no book.”
Give us the press, please!
Go crazy (more than you already are)
Friday, July 3, 2009 at 5:32 pm
Blackburn is a nice gal…just like Palin and Bachmann. Have you ever noticed that the conservative chicks are much better looking than the what the progressives are? Must be due to the fact that progressive men like women who are mannish in and out of the bedroom!

Hey stophate,
I believe that if a Judge grants a lawyer permission to defend their client in his court, then it is allowed for a lawyer to argue outside of their license.
But then again, I’m trying to use logic, which isn’t even in your vocabulary.
Friday, July 3, 2009 at 6:48 pm
IB,
The only vocabulary that stooptohate has is the that of hate and intolerance, for those are the only words that they identify with…and the only ones they know.

Economic Stimulus. H.R. 5140, the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008, passed 385-35 on January 29, 2008 (Roll Call 25). It would provide about $150 billion in economic stimulus, including $101.1 billion in direct payments of rebate checks (typically $600) to most taxpayers in 2008 and temporary tax breaks for businesses. Creating money out of thin air and then spending the newly created money cannot improve the economy, at least not in the long term. (If it could, why not create even more money for rebates and make every American a millionaire?) The stimulus has no offset and thus increases the federal deficit by the amount of the stimulus because the government must borrow the rebate money. A realistic long-term stimulus can only be achieved by lowering taxes through less government and by reducing regulatory burdens. Marsha Blackburn voted FOR this bill.(Source: The New American – July 21, 2008)

She is no conservative.

Bill Poey is a good man and Marsha Blackburn was right to stand up and support this bill.
Orly Taitz is a national treasure. You’re afraid of her stopfarting because she’s a strong woman and she’s RIGHT.

Intersested Bisexual,
That makes absolutely no sense IB. That is the same as saying that if you buy a ticket on an airline to Atlanta for $99.00, you can use it to fly to Rome.
Live Oak,
There is nothing to be afraid of. I just can’t believe that people are just so gullible. She obviously is clueless and isn’t exactly a top shelf lawyer.

How could anyone not want to verify the legality of a candidate’s status to run for office? What harm could possibly be done?
Saturday, July 4, 2009 at 4:41 pm
As long as you continue to post lies and hate, the conservative movement will dwindle. People are leaving in droves and young people just don’t get involved with the conservative movement much anymore.
“Sen. Barack Obama, born in Hawaii, is a Christian family man with a track record of public service. But on the Internet, in his grocery store, at his neighbor’s house, at his son’s auto shop, Peterman has also absorbed another version of the Democratic candidate’s background, one that is entirely false: Barack Obama, born in Africa, is a possibly gay Muslim racist who refuses to recite the Pledge of Allegiance.”

Saturday, July 4, 2009 at 8:06 pm
Kristy,
A battle of wits with an unarmed person, such as stooptohate, really is fun isn’t it? Not much you really need to do or say to prove how ignorant they are…just let them keep posting…with every post they reveal just how ignorant and full of hate they really are. Keep up the good work…you seem to bring out the best stooptohate has to offer to the world…if you know what I mean!
Saturday, July 4, 2009 at 8:25 pm
Hey All,

“I am not lying”
BWWWWAAAAAAAAhahahahahahahaha
You’re on a roll tonight stophate.
You’re not lying…………….
Man you have me laughing tonight.
How old is stophate anyway? 10 or 11 maybe?
Oh wait, being a “combat veteran” he has to be probably 18 or 19, he just acts like a 10 or 11 year old.
Not lying…………
Bwwwwahahahahahahahahaha

Kristy aka Cheese Wheel can’t seem to make up her mind. Last week she was posting about how she speaks to God through a Cheese Wheel. This week she can’t seem to remember anything about said Cheese Wheel. Just do us a favor and state you never said anything about Cheese Wheels and how you use them to get closer to Jesus. Please.
Sunday, July 5, 2009 at 9:39 am
Hey stoopid. Do you want a fucking cheese wheel or what? Can the commies not get new talking points to you quick enough so you can stop rambling about a fucking cheese wheel. Question stoopid, count how many faggots there are in commie countries. Without people like us protecting your freedoms, all freedoms you will be the first to go!

July 5, 2009 at 3:59 pm 6 July 2009
To: Representative Marsha Blackburn
Subject: Eligibility of “USURPER” barack hussein obama!
BHO, HAS GOTTA GO!, BHO, HAS GOTTA GO!, BHO, HAS GOTTA GO!
Not good enough Representative Marsh Blackburn and your five (5) cohorts, not good enough!
“Yesterday Democracy”, ….. “today … ?!?!”, ….. “tomorrow socialism and communism!!”
Marsha Blackburn, U.S. House of Representatives and the five (5) republican representatives who are now supporting this “so called new” piece of presidential etc vetting legislation is a big joke. This worthless piece of legislation, wasting taxpayers dollars, is a feeble attempt to cover their (republicans) “blundering asses”, and convince the American citizens that the election of muslim USURPER, barack hussein obama can’t be changed! That’s BS!!
“The bill requires any federal candidates’ campaign committee filing with the Federal Election Commission to produce a copy of the candidate’s birth certificate,” Coburn wrote. “If the bill makes it to the Senate, I will likely support it.””The last election is over,” Posey said in the interview. “I don’t think that outcome is going to change. Personally, I think it’s futile to go there, but looking toward the future I think it would be reckless if we do not do everything we could to eliminate problems like that in the future. And that’s why I filed the bill.” WND earlier reported when Posey talked about his idea on a radio program.. “I don’t think a Supreme Court would remove a president from office if they heard the case. But … We should make a good faith effort to make sure that things in the future are as they should be,” he said.
That’s also BS, the evil muslim communist USURPER, illegal invader, barack hussein obama, has gotta go!!!
No further legislation is required, the U.S. Constitution clearly defines the qualifications and requirements of presidential and congressional candidates.
The republican party is no longer the conservative party it once was, for the first time in my 75 years, I see little or no difference between the democrat and republican parties.
I recall hearing “ALL” state and U.S. Congressmen and women using the words, “I’LL FIGHT FOR THIS AND I’LL FIGHT FOR THAT”, in “ALL” of their campaign speeches, over and over! This rhetoric is for the easy, pleasing to the ear, politically correct issues only and, not for to the hard nose U.S. Constitutional issues that shouldn’t be difficult at all … The thorough vetting of presidential candidates, including the presidential eligibility of the muslim USURPER, barack hussein obama!
Besides the support that is growing in the U.S. House, Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., says he’s in favor of both state and federal demands that future presidential candidates have a formal procedure to document their qualifications.
The “United States Congress” and the “Supreme Court Of The United States” (SCOTUS) have shown no patriotic backbone and have danced around the “illegal invader” barack hussein obama’s presidential eligibility. It’s the “drizzlin craps” when our own U.S. Congress and SCOTUS shows no concern or interest in the value of the CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
Remember the movie, “The Best Little Whore House In Texas” and how the governor’s song and dance, danced around the peoples issues?!?! The rhetoric from “ALL” of our state and U.S. Congress has been just a “song and dance” routine regarding the eligibility of the muslim USURPER, barack hussein obama!!!

THE TRAITORS IN CONGRESS
http://www.newswithviews.com/Stuter/stuter138.htm
On January 8, 2009, with no objection being raised, Congress — House and Senate — voted unanimously to certify the Electoral College.
Not one legislator, Republican or Democrat, Senator or Representative, could or did refute even one of the undisputed facts concerning the eligibility of barack hussein obama to the office of president under Article II, Section 1, United States Constitution. Not one!
Those undisputed facts are as follows:
1. barack hussein obama has not been vetted or certified eligible to the office of president of the United States by any agency tasked to do so or authorized to do so.
2. Not one American citizen, not one Senator, not one Representative has seen, touched or examined barack hussein obama’s vault copy Hawaii birth certificate. While October 31, 2008, Dr Chiyome Fukino, Department of Health, Hawaii, issued a press release in which she stated that she had “seen and verified” that a Hawaii birth certificate for obama did exist; she did not state what was on it nor did she state that it showed that obama was born in Hawaii.
3. The Certification of Live Birth (COLB) that obama has been waving about is not a “birth certificate” as he claims, as the mainstream media claims, as FactCheck.org and FighttheSmears.com claims. The COLB is a short form, computer printed document deriving the information printed thereon from a database of information supposedly (See #13 and #14 below) taken from the original long form vault copy Hawaiian birth certificate.
4. Factcheck.org claims to be a non-partisan organization. Factcheck.org is funded by the Annenberg Foundation on whose board Obama sat. Factcheck.org is about as non-partisan as is obama. The Annenberg Foundation has never passed up a chance to fund a “progressive” (a.k.a., Marxist) cause.
5. Hawaii has a law, HRS 338-17.8, which allows for the birth registration of a child born in a foreign country so long as one parent is a U.S. Citizen and so long as that parent claimed Hawaii as his or her permanent residence for one year prior to the birth. Stanley Ann (Dunham) obama met both of these requirements.
6. If obama was born in Hawaii, he is, at best, a dual citizen. At his birth, his father was a British subject as Kenya was a British colony. Dual citizenship precludes Obama from eligibility under Article II, Section 1, United States Constitution. Prior cases decided by the United States Supreme Court, involving the determination of “natural born” have used Vattel’s “The Law of Nations” definition which states, “The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens.” (Part I, Chapter 19, Section 212). Factcheck.org states that Obama was a dual citizen at birth.
7. If obama was born in Kenya, he was, at birth, a British subject as Kenya was a British colony. American law, at that time, required that Stanley Ann (Dunham) obama be a minimum of 19 years of age at his birth to confer to him her American citizenship if he was born outside the United States; she was only 18 years old when obama was born.
8. barack hussein obama’s paternal step-grandmother has stated before witnesses, said witnesses signing affidavits, that she was witness to the birth of Obama in Kenya. See here, here, and here.
9. michelle Obama has stated that barack hussein obama was adopted by his step-father, Lolo Soetoro, an Indonesian citizen.
10. When barack hussein obama was registered at the Fransiskus Assissi Primary School in Jakarta, Indonesia, his father was listed as Lolo Seotoro; his citizenship as Indonesian; his name as Barry Soetoro.
11. When Stanley Ann (Dunham) Soetoro divorced Lolo Soetoro in 1980, the divorce papers show they had two children: one minor child (Maya), one over 18 (Barack).
12. When Barack Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, became an Indonesian citizen, his British citizenship would have been terminated; if he was born in Hawaii, also his American dual citizenship. Indonesia does not allow for dual citizenship.
13. Returning to the COLB. This document, as waved about by obama, may be authentic on its face (See #14), but it is not accurate. Were it accurate, it would show Lolo Soetoro as his father; his name as Barry Soetoro.
14. The COLB obama waves about lists the race of his biological father as “African”. African is not a race any more than American is. This brings into question the authenticity of the COLB Obama is waving about as his “birth certificate”.
15. If barack hussein obama, aka Barry Soetoro, did become an American citizen, he became a naturalized American citizen which precludes him from eligibility under Article II, Section 1, United States Constitution. There has been no proof presented that he is even a naturalized American citizen.
16. Barack hussein obama has multiple aliases: Barry Soetoro, Barry Dunham, Barry Obama, Barack Soetoro, Barack Dunham. When he registered with the American Bar Association, he listed none of these as is required by law. Unless he had his name legally changed to Barack Hussein Obama after his adoption, of which there has been no proof presented, Barry Soetoro is his real name and Barack Hussein Obama is an alias.
17. All his passport records, education records, medical records, birth records have become “not available” to the public. Those records show where he was born, if he applied for or received aid as a foreign student, the country or countries from which he has received passports.
18. His selective service registration appears to be fraudulent. If he was a naturalized American citizen when he turned 18, and he failed to register with the selective service, he is barred from holding any position in government, elected or otherwise.
19. If he is not even a naturalized citizen, he is barred from holding any elected office.
20. If he is not even a naturalized citizen, he is an illegal alien.
There are always too many Democratic congressmen, too many Republican congressmen, and never enough U.S. Congressmen. ~Author Unknown

Hey Stoopid , I listen to you and I can believe anyone that say’s GOD doesn’t have a sense of humor. I’d feel sorry for you if you were’nt such a fucking idiot!
Monday, July 6, 2009 at 1:48 pm
Gunny,
Thanks and well said. And yes, why did those who validated the electoral college votes not bring this issue up…in one word “race”!
Monday, July 6, 2009 at 2:16 pm
Gunny, what I’m afraid of is all this is smoke and mirrors and there is nothing short of a civil war thats going to get this fucker out! I look around at what we have now, and seriously don’t think life will ever be the same. I try to tell my kids to atleast watch the news, be somewhat aware of whats going on in this country… but they’re too busy watching MTV or listening to their Ipod. Even friends of mine say , we’re not going socialist, this is AMERICA. I truly wonder if we are such a minority in the world and all this crap is going to happen whether we like it or not and there is not a damn thing we can do about it. Will we have to get up and leave our families to fight for our freedom, much like those who did 233 years ago.
GOD help us all!

Cuss,
Please keep in mind the old addage:
“God helps those who help themselves”…good for you to keep trying to encourage your family and friends to put away the gadgets and focus on what is going on, because the future (our future) is too precious to leave it to the likes of BHO/Lucifer. Stay strong, stay informed, stay armed!

Marsha Blackburn should not be supporting this bill. She’s only pandering to racists in her district. That might be a good political strategy if her ONLY concern is getting re-elected, but that doesn’t make it right.
If she cared anything about fair elections or the people she’s supposed to be representing, she’d be pushing for affordable health care instead of protecting all the HCA executives who live in her district. It’s funny – sad actually – how people keep voting for incumbents even after they no longer care about representing the people’s interests.
