Sometimes you just have to laugh at some of this stuff. Barack Obama decided to do a press conference of sorts today.
The results? Priceless.
From Mediate:
President Obama took a question from NBC News’ Chuck Todd who asked whether he thinks that there is something hidden in Mitt Romney’s tax returns which could be potentially damaging to his candidacy.
“There is a difference between playing by the same sets of rules and doing something illegal, and in no way have we suggested the latter,” said Obama.
Obama went on to illustrate this point by saying that the returns that Romney has so far disclosed indicate that he made use of a Swiss bank account. “Well, that may be perfectly legal but I suspect that if you asked the average America, ‘do you have one?’ ‘Is that part of how you manage your tax returns?’ They would say ‘no,’” said the President.
Obama said that he thinks that, as well as other details of Romney’s personal finances, are relevant information for voters.
“I think the idea that this is somehow exceptional – that there should be a rationale or a justification for doing more than the very bare minimum – has it backwards,” Obama continued. He said that voters expect Romney to release as many returns as past candidates have, including his own father.
“The American people have assumed that, if you want to be President of the United States, that your life is an open book when it comes to things like your finances,” said Obama.
President “Open Book” has spoken.
If the media were not in the tank for Obama, this would be funny. Well President “Open Book”, how about opening up.
Let’s start with your birth certificate. The real one, not the fake one that you released. How about your college records? All of them. Inquiring minds want to know, since you said anyone who wants to be President should have their life as an open book.
Did you go to school as a foreign exchange student? Your records that you have never released from Occidental and Columbia would tell us this.
How did you pay for Occidental? How did you pay for Columbia? How did you as a mediocre student get into Columbia and then Harvard? And how did you pay for Harvard? Who wrote your reference letters for Columbia and Harvard?
Obama thinks Romney should be an open book? Real Americans think that kind of openness should apply to Obama.
Mr. Obama, show us your records!

We find it so hard to believe right? That's because, most of us were raised in a Christian family household, we were taught lying is a sin. If your like me you hear your mother's, words ringing in your head, "don't lie honey, or God will punish you", or "your lies will come back to haunt you ten times worse". Of course we believed our mother, what she was saying was also told to us in church. The books in the Bible back all this up, right?
That's just it we are God fearing Christians, Obama isn't! His soul was sold to Satin long ago! The Muslim ideology promotes lying to further spread the Muslim cult! That's right, I said, "cult", it is a cult that can't tolerate any other religion what so ever.
So when you see people flapping their lips, spreading one lie after the other, you know they are just promoting this sinister cult! They have no moral convictions what so ever ! They are dead already, they sold their souls to Satin for what ever gains he promised them, of course, that too is also a lie!

Our Caliphe-in-Chief is a MUSLIM....And deeply entrenched in the throes of narcissism....And has the ONE WORLD ORDER convinced that he is the puppet to bring about the change they need to take us over....And the Social Justice mob from the 60's believe he will be the catalyst to turn the US into the latest greatest COMMUNISM state....
And we sit here like the fools we've become expecting our SYSTEM to bring us out of the worst threats since we were an English colony!!!!!!
We have no system!!! ARE YOU LISTENING? W e h a v e n o s y s t e m l e f t t o t a k e i t a l l a w a y.
The closer we get to winning the election in November, the shorter our life span becomes.
These people will not lose. They will win - ALL OF THEM! Then they will all wonder what happened when we're wearing burkas, reciting the Koran and dodging the knives aimed at our necks abiding by the precepts of shariah law.
You see, the Muslim Brotherhood is the only one of the groups listed that will kill in order to achieve their goal - a World Caliphate and Obione is the one with the power problem who wants to rule it.

Permalink Reply by Kenneth Paul Russell on August 22, 2012 at 3:46am Yes, yes, yes, I agree completely! I have been called a, "Birther" for some time now, I wear it as a badge of common sense sanity! Obama isn't qualified, to be President of the United States of America. There isn't any other reason for him to seal his records, PERIOD!
You know most people are intelligent enough to know how to read, and comprehend, the constitution of the USA. tells us the requirements for the office of the presidency. One of them is that he/she has to be a "natural born citizen", of the USA. Obama is not, by his own admission that his father was a Kenyan citizen of the the British rule at that time. End of story.

SECRET TREASURE CHEST THAT WILL RESOLVE EVERYTHING! Yes, we should DEMAND their release
with no more fake ones! Still it would only confirm what most of us with even half a brain already know. Yet what BOZ has done SINCE he was weadled into Office is enough to get him FRIED and deported to GITMO! Never mind his fabricated past! High Treason would certainly top my list!! Most 5th graders would have enough sense to shoot the "Reveal" QUESTION RIGHT BACK to those vicious Liberals! PULLEZZZE, won't somebody step up to the plate, or do we have to go round up some 5th graders?
