Second, do you know the difference between a birth certificate and a certificate of live birth? Here's a hint, only one of them can be used for such little things as a driver's license, a passport, joining the military, etc. Why he doesn't release his actual birth certificate confuses me except when I think back and realize that the old ones from the 60's have the babies religion on them. Maybe he just doesn't want people to see what his parents listed it as. Kind of silly if you ask me. The other thing he has never rleased is his college transcripts, but that's another story.Zenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11843988887330031098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12341882.post-4026568990916343092009-08-03T21:43:09.590-04:002009-08-03T21:43:09.590-04:00View Obama's birth certificate at FactCheck.or...<a href="http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/born_in_the_usa.html" rel="nofollow"><strong>View Obama's birth certificate at FactCheck.org</strong></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.bradblog.com/?p=7336" rel="nofollow"><strong>Wingnuts Receive Marching Orders On How to Disrupt Upcoming Town Halls With Phony Outrage.

They preach against wasting tax dollars on pork but are the first to suck up those dollars (ask Ted Stevens); they preach picking one up by his own bootstraps, but are the first to ask for federal aid when their state (mostly Southern) is hit by a tornado or a hurricane. The African American conservatives preach to abolish affirmative action when they themselves benefited from it (ask Clarence Thomas). In short, conservativism is a myth; it never truly worked and pretty much favored the wealthy over the backs of the poor.Pope George Ringonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12341882.post-2818393465947945832009-08-03T12:34:26.950-04:002009-08-03T12:34:26.950-04:00I'd vote Republican, if they really were conse...I'd vote Republican, if they really were conservatives. Look at the spending Bush did. Look at the wars. I know you are talking about the local level, but that's where it starts. And talk about "big government", look what the Republicans did from 2000-2008. Dept of Homeland Security, the biggest taxpayer boondoggle, just to name one.
