“Chief Justice John Roberts doesn’t do much public speaking, so it was a treat for the University of Idaho to land him for a speech and a chance to answer a few questions at the College of Law’s Bellwood Lecture Series,” posts colleague Jim Camden/Spin Control. “But the first question may be a good example of why members of the Supreme Court don’t go out much on the speaking circuit.” You can read the rest of Jim’s post (and hear the Q-and-A involving President Barack Obama’s birth certificate here).
Question: Anyone out there still think that Barack Obama’s birth certificate remains a legitimate issue?

As a friend of mine puts it “these people who keep bringing this up need to build a bridge and get over their damned selves”. The issue is over and done with and they need to stop beating the decayed remains of a long dead horse.

I am so blankity-blank tired of seeing this question continually persist. JeanC said it perfectly and succinctly. DITTO. Uh, and clean up on aisle three - bring a wheelbarrow.

The whiners who continue to stir and spout this non-issue prove that there’s no stigma attached to ignorance.

In their own mind, notright, in their own mind.

I agree - this is totally bogus…it’s a red-herring promoted by the Obama administration it’s self to distract us all from seeing that Obama is a puppet of the Illuminati cartel and the coming one world government…it’s brilliantly clever and yet maniacal.

Isn’t Obama from the planet Melmac? Aliens don’t need a birth certificate. :-)

“Remains?” That implies that it ever was.
