Where are they?



Excuse me Mr. Obama, I mean Senator Obama, sir. Um . . . know you are busy and important and stuff. I mean running for president is very important and . . . ah . . . I hate to bother you. I will only take a minute ok, sir?

See, I have these missing pieces that are holding me up, and I was wondering sir, if you could take time out of your busy schedule and help me out. You know, no big deal, just someloose ends and things.

Hey, you have a nice place here!

The wife sees houses like this on TV all the time and says boy she wishes she had digs like this you know? Is that painting real? Really? Wow. I saw something like that in a museum once! Oh, sorry sir. I didn't mean to get off the track. So if you could just help me out a minute and give me some details, I will get right out of your way. I want to close this case and maybe take the wife to Coney Island or something.. Ever been to Coney Island ? No, I didn't think so. . . Well, listen, anyways, I can't seem to get some information I need to wrap this up. These things seem to either be 'locked' or 'not available'. I'm sure it's just some oversight or glitch or something, so if you could you tell me where these things are . I . . . have them written down here somewhere . . . oh wait.. Sorry about the smears. It was raining out. I'll just read it to you.

Could you help me please find these things, sir?

  2. The national budget is so complicated, you have to be a genius to understand it. You also have to be important, famous and successful. You say you’re none of these? Well, then, I have one piece of advice for you - Get to know me! Get to know my likes, my dislikes. What makes me tick? What makes me me? What’s my favorite color? Do I always come to life in the Spring? Get to know me!

    Now, here’s a letter from a man who lives in Manhatten: “Dear Barack, before I got to know you, I was nothing, nowhere, nobody. I didn’t have a cent to my name. In fact, I didn’t have a name - I couldn’t afford one. And then I got to know you, and today they call me Donald Trump!” Get to know me!

    What do I do in my spare time? Have I always had this much hair? Where is my secret freckle? Get to know me!

    Now, here’s a letter from a woman who lives in Europe: “Dear Barack, before I got to know you, I was nothing, nowhere, nobody. I had bad teeth and couldn’t afford braces. And then one day, I got to know you. Well, I never got those braces, but today they call me Queen Elizabeth!” Get to know me!

    Now, here’s a letter from someone who didn’t get to know me: “Dear Blank, I didn’t get to know you, signed Nobody.” Now, I know some of you are probably thinking, “What a jerk!” Congratulations! You’re getting to know me! So, remember, if you want to get to know me, get to know me!

  3. Nice attempt at reframing the argument, but it doesn't work.

    Candidates go through a long vetting process. If they have been around a while, then that is part of the process. If they had been around only a few years, then there is no background/base of information about them.

    Thus they need to provide the information necessary for the voter to make their decision.

    Hussein hasn't done this. And based on what we know of the people he associated with, it is obvious that he doesn't want us to.

    And based on the poll results we can see why he doesn't. The more people know of him, the lower his numbers drop.

    Barack Obama's Sole Article in Harvard Law Review Promotes Abortion

    by Steven Ertelt
    LifeNews.com Editor
    August 22, 2008

    Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- How strongly does Barack Obama believe in unlimited abortions? Strongly enough that the only article he wrote for the Harvard Law Review while he was a law school student talked about how fervently believed in legalized abortion. Obama's name wasn't attached to any other legal scholarship during the time.

    In an article unearthed by the Politico web site, Obama, as the president of the Harvard Law Review, wrote an unsigned article touting abortion.

    The web site says the article comes in at six pages and is contained in the third volume of the 1990 Harvard Law Review.

    In the work, Obama considered a parenthetical abortion issue -- whether unborn children have a legal right to sue their mothers for damage sustained during pregnancy, from such things as alcohol or illegal drugs.

    Obama says no and writes supportively of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court case and another from the Illinois Supreme Court saying no such right exists.

    According to Politico, Obama wrote: "[T]he case raises the broader policy and constitutional considerations that argue against using civil liability to control the behavior of pregnant women."

    In a discussion of abortion itself, Obama wrote that government has more important business than "ensuring that any particular fetus is born."

    He also decried any limits on abortion, saying the government has an interest in "preventing increasing numbers of children from being born in to lives of pain and despair."

    Politico said the Obama campaign confirmed the pro-abortion presidential candidate wrote the piece in question and that it was one of the typical articles law students would write briefing and opining on federal and state court decisions.

    In an email to the web site, Obama spokesman Ben LaBolt also confirmed that Obama "remains committed to" the sentiments he expressed in the piece.

    Obama's article is on page 823 of Volume 103 of the Harvard Law Review and would likely be located in larger public libraries and databases that chronicle legal articles in scholarly publications.


    Your Selective Service Registration

    Link

    Mr. Owens,

    Barack Hussein Obama registered at a post office in Hawaii. The effective registration date was September 4, 1980.

    His registration number is 61-1125539-1.

    Barack Obama fulfilled his Selective Service obligation and has every legal right to run for the presidency of the United States.

    If opponents wish to see him defeated, they’ll have to see it done in the political arena.


    and three:

    1. The State of Illinois has specific record-keeping requirements for their State Senators and, naturally, business occurring in the legislature. It has been confirmed that Obama abided by these requirements flawlessly.

    2. All of said records, i.e. anything to do with the IL state government, i.e. everything is available through the State of Illinois. Some documents require a FoIA request but there is no OK that Obama needs to or can give. The public record is, well, public record.

    3. Cases, legislation etc. that were ongoing at the time of Obama's election to U.S. Senate were transitioned to his successor Kwame Raoul.

    4. Obama does not have any remaining personal records. Anything that is not part of the official record (see #1) would have been discarded because it is by definition inconsequential. There was no staff that could handle these as mere keepsakes.

    That is all the information you need. Please contact the State of Illinois if you want access to the extensive public record.

    Period, done, the end.

    We will not be distracted. Not this time.


    P.S. Jot yourself a little text file somewhere to just paste in when the next troll comes by. Their intention is to waste our time.

  5. Well, let's see.

    Out of 14 we now have two with advice to do a FOIA for a third...

    And looking at his Law Review record I can see why he had rather not have that spread around.

    And thanks for the help. Please feel free to do the other 11.

  6. Nah, I'm not paid enough to check unfounded rumors for you.

    Who do you think you are, Jonah Goldberg?

    I don't know if you've heard of Google, I've found it helpful in finding things out rather than believing in rumors because I share a POV with the source(s) of the rumors.

    I would think that after disabusing the first two, you'd be curious enough to see if your trust in the sources of info you use is justified.

    The conclusion is left to the student as an exercise.

  9. You see, there you go trolling again.

    It's my blog and if I don't want to research something, well sorry about that.

  10. BTW, a FOIA wouldn't be necessary for Hussein's record in the Illinois Senate, as such records wouldn't be covered by federal law, AFAIK.

    Hope this helps.

  13. Because,
    it demonstrates you aren't interested in what is true about BHO, but what you want to believe is true.

    Those are two different things, IMHO.

  14. I have heard enough from his own mouth to make my decision for me.

    Now.

    No more trolling, DA.
