BARACK OBAMA PUBLISHES HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE TO PROVE HE’S AMERICAN

BARACK OBAMA PUBLISHES HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE TO PROVE HE’S AMERICAN.

 I am happy yet so disappointed that Phillip Berg, Donald Trump and talk show host like Michael Savage were on board with the notion that the President was not an american born citizen.

Forget the fact that he was a lawyer that went to College graduated and was a senator and now a president. President Obama hand was forced by the billionaire and potential presidential candidate Donald Trump.

He revived gossip about Obama’s citizenship – which, had it been true, would have made him ineligible for the White House.
Obama has already had to produce a “certificate of live birth” – the standard official document – when he was first challenged during the election campaign in 2008.
But hardcore Republicans always claimed it was fake and the flames were fanned by Trump.
So Obama, 49, finally instructed his lawyers to obtain the original, long-form birth certificate from a health department vault in Hawaii.
Yesterday aides posted it on the internet and sent copies to the media. A clearly irritated Obama added: “We do not have time for this kind of silliness, we’ve got better stuff to do.”
He said he was puzzled by how the issue had been kept going for more than two years.
Doubters had formed a groundswell of opinion known as the “Birther” movement. Some claimed the original certificate could show that Obama was not born in the US and that he was a Muslim.
The birth certificate revealed yesterday for the first time stated clearly that Barack Hussein Obama was born on August 4 1961 at a maternity hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii, at 7.24pm, to his white mother from Kansas and his namesake black father from Kenya.
There was no mention of religion, but Obama has repeatedly insisted he is Christian. Asked for his response yesterday property tycoon Mr Trump said: “I would like to see it, I hope it’s true, I hope it checks out beautifully.” 
So now that these fools that live on idiot street have egg on their face, I wonder what their claim will be now???

Never judge someone.....

'Some people!' snorted a man standing behind me in the
Long line at the grocery store.

'You would think the manager would pay attention and
Open another line, 'said a woman.

I looked to the front of the line to see what the hold up was and saw A well dressed, young woman, trying to get the machine To accept her credit card. No matter how many times She swiped it, the machine kept rejecting it.

'It's one of them welfare card things.  people
Need to get a job like everyone else,' said the man
Standing behind me.

The young woman turned around to See who had made the comment. 

It was me,' he said, pointing to himself.

The young lady's face began to change expression.
Almost in tears, she dropped the welfare card onto the
Counter and quickly walked out of the store. Everyone
In the checkout line watched as she began running to
Her car. Never looking back, she got in and drove way.

After developing cancer in 1977 and having had to use
Food stamps; I had learned never to judge anyone,
Without knowing the circumstances of their life. This
Turned out to be the case today.

Several minutes later a young man walked into the
Store. He went up to the cashier and asked if she had
Seen the woman. After describing her, the cashier told
Him that she had run out of the store, got into her
Car, and drove away.

'Why would she do that?' asked the man. Everyone in
The line looked around at the fellow who had made the
Statement.  'I made a stupid comment about the
Welfare card she was using.  Something I shouldn't
Have said. I'm sorry,' said the man.

'Well, that's bad, real bad, in fact.  Her brother was
Killed in Afghanistan two years ago. He had three
Young children and she has taken on that
Responsibility. She's twenty years old, single, and
Now has three children to support,' he said in a very
Firm voice.

'I'm really truly sorry. I didn't know,' he replied,
Shaking both his hands about.

The young man asked, 'Are these paid for?' pointing to
The shopping cart full of groceries.

'It wouldn't take her card'  the clerk told him.

'Do you know where she lives?' asked the man who had
Made the comment.

'Yes, she goes to our church.'

'Excuse me,' he said as he made his way to the front
Of the line. He pulled out his wallet, took out his
Credit card and told the cashier, 'Please use my card.
PLEASE!' The clerk took his credit card and began to
Ring up the young woman's groceries.

Hold on,' said the gentleman. He walked back to his
Shopping cart and began loading his own groceries onto
The belt to be included. 'Come on people. We got three
Kids to help raise!' he told everyone in line.

Everyone began to place their groceries onto the fast
Moving belt. A few customers began bagging the food
And placing it into separate carts.. 'Go back and get
Two big turkeys,' yelled a heavyset woman, as she
Looked at the man.

'NO,' yelled the man.    Everyone stopped dead in their
Tracks. The entire store became
Quiet for several seconds. 'Four turkeys,' yelled the
Man. Everyone began laughing and went back to work.

When all was said and done, the man paid a total of
$1,646.57 for the groceries. He then walked over to
The side,  pulled out his check book, and began
Writing a check using the bags of dog food piled near
The front of the store for a writing surface.. He
Turned around and handed the check to the young man..
'She will need a freezer and a few other things as
Well,' he told the man.

The young man looked at the check and said, 'This is
Really very generous of you.'

'No, ' said the man. 'Her brother was the generous one.'

Everyone in the store had been observing the odd
Commotion and began to clap.  And I drove home that
Day feeling very American.

We live in the Land of the free, because of the Brave!!

Remember our Troops of Yesterday and Today!!!

A great example of why we should be kind and patient.
Kindness is the language the blind can see and the deaf can hear.

May God's many blessings continue
    to be with you  -  ALWAYS!!!
   
MAY THIS KEEP GOING....

IT WILL OPEN A LOT OF EYES,
HOPEFULLY HEARTS,
AND KEEP SOME MOUTHS SHUT

" I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH

CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME " AMEN

Sometimes we wonder,



'What did I do to deserve this?' or 'Why did God have to do this to me?'
Here is a wonderful explanation!
A daughter is telling her Mother how everything is going wrong, she's failing algebra, her boyfriend broke up with her and her best friend is moving away. Meanwhile, her Mother is baking a cake and asks her daughter if she would like a snack, and the daughter says, 'Absolutely Mom, I love your cake.' 'Here, have some cooking oil,' her Mother offers. 'Yuck' says her daughter.. 'How about a couple raw eggs?' 'Gross, Mom!' 'Would you like some flour then? Or maybe baking soda?' 'Mom, those are all yucky!' To which the mother replies: 

'Yes, all those things seem bad all by themselves. But when they are put together in the right way, they make a wonderfully delicious cake! God works the same way. Many times we wonder why He would let us go through such bad and difficult times. But God knows that when He puts these things all in His order, they always work for good! We just have to trust Him and, eventually, they will all make something wonderfulGod is crazy about you.

He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning.

Whenever you want to talk, He'll listen. He can live anywhere in the universe,
and He chose your heart. 

If you like this, send this on to the people you really care about. 
Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance!

Poem to MOM

My son came home from school one day,
With a smirk upon his face.
He decided he was smart enough,
To put me in my place.

'Guess what I learned in Civics Two,
that's taught by Mr. Wright?
It's all about the laws today,
The 'Children's Bill of Rights.'

It says I need not clean my room,
Don't have to cut my hair
No one can tell me what to think,
Or speak, or what to wear.

I have freedom from religion,
And regardless what you say,
I don't have to bow my head,
And I sure don't have to pray.

I can wear earrings if I want,
And pierce my tongue & nose.
I can read & watch just what I like,
Get tattoos from head to toe.

And if you ever spank me,
I'll charge you with a crime.
I'll back up all my charges,
With the marks on my behind.

Don't you ever touch me,
My body's only for my use,
Not for your hugs and kisses,
that's just more child abuse.

Don't preach about your morals,
Like your Mama did to you.
That's nothing more than mind control,
And it's illegal too!

Mom , I have these children's rights,
So you can't influence me,
Or I'll call Children's Services Division,
Better known as C.S.D.'


Mom 's Reply and Thoughts


Of course my first instinct was
To toss him out the door.
But the chance to teach him a lesson
Made me think a little more.

I mulled it over carefully,
I couldn't let this go.
A smile crept upon my face,
he's messing with a pro.

Next day I took him shopping
At the local Goodwill Store.
I told him, 'Pick out all you want,
there's shirts & pants galore.

I've called and checked with C.S.D ..
Who said they didn't care
If I bought you K-Mart shoes
Instead of those Nike Airs.

I've canceled that appointment
To take your driver's test.
The C..S.D. Is unconcerned
So I'll decide what's best. '

I said 'No time to stop and eat,
Or pick up stuff to munch.
And tomorrow you can start to learn
To make your own sack lunch.

Just save the raging appetite,
And wait till dinner time.
We're having liver and onions,
A favorite dish of mine.'

He asked 'Can I please rent a movie,
To watch on my VCR?'
'Sorry, but I sold your TV,
For new tires on my car.
I also rented out your room,
You'll take the couch instead.
The C .S.D. Requires
Just a roof over your head.

Your clothing won't be trendy now,
I'll choose what we eat.
That allowance that you used to get,
Will buy me something neat.

I'm selling off your jet ski,
Dirt-bike & roller blades.
Check out the 'Parents Bill of Rights',
It's in effect today!

Hey hot shot, are you crying,
Why are you on your knees?
Are you asking God to help you out,
Instead of C.S.D..?'

Send to all people that have teenagers, have already raised teenagers, have children who will soon be teenagers or those who will be parents someday OR ANYONE WHO'D JUST G E T A LAUGH

Black people can be loyal as hell or fickle

As a self employed black man I encourage business with black business. The point that I hate is that black people can be loyal as hell or fickle! Their ideal of loyalty is that they will hang with you to the end...Then comes the fickle person, he is the person who is with you for what ever he can get, then he is out...

Hey, don't call me a a hypocrite, but with out fail if you deal with 5 black folks, 2 of them have figured out a way to try and get over ...

Trust is the main reason that black people don't band together! Black people have a crab mentality that if you get to far ahead they want to pull you back down. The truth is that the world could not function with out the off the cuff thinking of the black men and women of the world.


Trust is earned with sweat equity remember that everything that glitters is not gold... Doing business is like a relationship you have to know who you are dealing with to make it to the next level!


I believe that with any person that you do business with, you have to go in with an open mind... When we learn to ban together and create a united force of unity then there is nothing we can not do!

The 'birther' bill - can not be retroactive

The birther bill, is the new attempt to get President Obama to show his Birth Certificate.  The conservative ideal is to make him show it!! This started 3 year ago when Phillip Berg started this frivolous  attack on President Obama for not being a citizen of the United States. Although Berg is an Attorney every claim he has filed has been thrown out of Court, claiming no merit! 


Now Donald Trump is making the same claim, except he wants law makers to pass a new birther bill to make the President show that he is a Citizen of the United States. I keep hearing Trump and many others keep singing the same song, they only want to see the presidents birth certificate.


Unfortunately the Birther Bill, will not help them to see the president birth certificate... The bright individuals who came up with this law, can not make it retroactive. There is a law called the Grand Father Clause which basically says that any law passed today does not become retroactive. That simply mean that if you were going to pass the law with the attempt to see the birth certificate it will not work!!!


So this conspiracy theory for Obama 50 years ago to make him the first black president by hiding his true birth place, is deep! Will someone tell me, were black people still getting lynched in the 60's? Go figure...

America – he’s your president for goodness sake!


There was a time not so long ago when Americans, regardless of their political stripes, rallied round their president. Once elected, the man who won the White House was no longer viewed as a republican or democrat, but the President of the United States. The oath of office was taken, the wagons were circled around the country’s borders and it was America versus the rest of the world with the president of all the people at the helm.

 Suddenly President Barack Obama, with the potential to become an exceptional president has become the glaring exception to that unwritten, patriotic rule.

 Four days before President Obama’s inauguration, before he officially took charge of the American government, Rush Limbaugh boasted publicly that he hoped the president would fail. Of course, when the president fails the country flounders. Wishing harm upon your country in order to further your own narrow political views is selfish, sinister and a tad treasonous as well.

 Subsequently during his State of the Union address which is pretty much a pep rally for America, an unknown congressman from South Carolina, later identified as Joe Wilson, stopped the show when he called the President of the United States a liar. The president showed great restraint in ignoring this unprecedented insult and carried on with his speech. Speaker Nancy Pelosi was so stunned by the slur she forgot to jump to her feet while clapping wildly, thirty or forty times after that.
 Last spring President Obama took his wife Michelle to see a play in New York City and republicans attacked him over the cost of security for the excursion. The president can’t take his wife out to dinner and a show without being scrutinized by the political opposition? As history has proven, a president in a theatre without adequate security is a tragically bad idea.

 Remember: “Apart from that Mrs. Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play?”
 At some point the treatment of President Obama went from offensive to ugly and then to downright dangerous.
 The health care debate which looked more like extreme fighting in a mud pit than a national dialogue revealed a very vulgar side of America. President Obama’s face appeared on protest signs white-faced and blood-mouthed in a satanic clown image. In other tasteless portrayals, people who disagreed with his position distorted his face to look like Hitler complete with mustache and swastika.
 Odd, that burning the flag makes Americans crazy, but depicting the president as a clown and a maniacal fascist is accepted as part of the new rude America.
 Maligning the image of the leader of the free world is one thing, putting the president’s life in peril is quite another. More than once men with guns were videotaped at the health care rallies where the president spoke. Again, history shows that letting men with guns get within range of a president has not served America well in the past.
And still the “birthers’ are out there claiming Barak Obama was not born in the United States, although public documentation proves otherwise. Hawaii is definitely part of the United States, but the Panama Canal Zone where his electoral opponent Senator John McCain was born? Nobody’s really sure.
Last month a 44-year-old woman in Buffalo was quite taken by President Obama when she met him in a chicken wing restaurant called Duff’s. Did she way something about a pleasure and an honor to meet the man or utter encouraging words for the difficult hob he is doing? No. Quote: “You’re a hottie with a smokin’ little body.”
Lady, that was the President of the United States you were addressing, not one of the Jonas Brothers! He’s your president for goodness sakes not the guy driving the zamboni at “Monster Trucks On Ice.” What’s next, “Take Your President To A Topless Bar Day.”
In President Barack Obama, Americans have a charismatic leader with a good and honest heart. Unlike his predecessor, he’s a very intelligent leader. And unlike that president’s predecessor he’s a highly moral man.
In President Obama, Americans have the real deal, the whole package and a leader that citizens of almost every country around the world look to with great envy. Given the opportunity, Canadians would trade our leader, hell, most of our leaders for Obama in a heartbeat.
What America has in Obama is a head of state with vitality and insight and youth. Think about it, Barack Obama is a young Nelson Mandela. Mandela was the face of change and charity for all of Africa but he was too old to make it happen. The great things Obama might do for America and the world could go on for decades after he’s out of office.
America, you know not what you have.
The man is being challenged unfairly, characterized with vulgarity and treated with the kind of deep disrespect to which no previous president was subjected. It’s like the day after electing the first black man to be president, thereby electrifying the world with hope and joy, Americans sobered up and decided the bad old days were better.
President Obama may fail but it will not be a Richard Nixon default fraught with larceny and lies. President Obama given a fair chance will surely succeed but his triumph will never come with a Bill Clinton caveat – “if only he’d got control of that zipper.”
Please. Give the man a fair, fighting chance. This incivility toward the leader who won over Americans and gave hope to billions of people around the world that their lives could be enhanced by his example, just naturally has to stop.
Believe me, when Americans drive by the White House and see a sign on the lawn that reads: “No shirt. No shoes. No service,” they’ll realize this new national rudeness has gone way, way too far.
