Arizona Secretary of State Asks Hawaii to Verify President Obama’s Birth, Hawaii Asks Arizona Secretary of State to Verify Himself

CampsKoziol714 — Sat, 19 May 2012 03:05:00 +0000

Though Arizona’s Secretary of State says he’s not a birther, he sure sounds like one: “I’m not a birther; I believe the president was born in Hawaii — or at least I hope he was,” Ken Bennett said in a radio interview this week. Apparently, that’s why he asked Hawaii to provide “verification” that Barack Obama was born in Hawaii two months ago. Hawaii’s response? Go verify yourself! From TPM: In the weeks since then, Bennett said, Hawaii officials have forced him to provide proof that he is who he says he is. They asked him to send them copies of the Arizona laws that prove the secretary of state really is the person in charge of handling the ballots. Admittedly, Bennett said they told him they were “tired of all the requests.” But he is continuing anyway. Looks like someone in Hawaii has a sense of humor. Seriously though, while Bennett claims he’s not playing to birthers, it’s hard to see why Bennett would waste his time, not to mention taxpayers’ money, on these theatrics if he wasn’t using the opportunity to build his support up ahead of the 2014 Arizona gubernatorial election in which he’s expected to compete. The birther issue is a popular one there. Read Nick Gillespie’s take on the latest fodder for the birthers, the Obama bio from his literary agency that mistakenly said he was born in Kenya.

Jon Lovitz: Obama Is Peddling A Victim Mentality
Joe Rogan: Obama Is Shredding The Constitution

ShellyLedlie770 — Sat, 19 May 2012 02:18:30 +0000

There’s a line in Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption about prisoners and homosexuality. Something like, “Most prisoners are straight when they get out of prison, but they’re not as straight as when they went in.” Something like that. Well,…

In boxing, you can hit your opponent, but you must both be standing. In wrestling, you can grapple to the ground, but you can’t hit your opponent. (Okay I think Greco-Roman wrestling allows an open-hand slap or something.) In MMA,…
