It had to happen, the State Health director of Hawaii has been inundated with requests, and must be tired of issuing public announcements to the affirmative regarding Barack Obama’s birth, only to be doubted…loudly and often! It’s enough to harsh his Zen-like, Hang Loose attitude. Senator Howard Dean sat in for Keith Olbermann Tuesday, when the House celebrated Hawaii’s 50th anniversary as a state, with a unique and timely vote. While Rome burns (substitute USA if you feel so
inclined), you will be pleased to know that the House of Representatives actually voted on a resolution today…Yay! Oh, what was it about? No, not health care, nor the deficit, nope, not war matters; they voted to agree that Hawaii.U.S.A. is the official birthplace of President Barack Obama. Hurray and duh!
Commercial Break: If anyone has a time share you’re not using, call me! Aloha;)
Chris Hayes of ‘The Nation’ discusses this resolution with Dean. Approved by some, simply not voted upon by others who sat on their hands, or performed some other silent protest – perhaps they did not wish to go on record as having voted against it, but certainly would not vote in favor. Do I sense a lack of conviction, and an attempt to fool some of the people? Their actions to placate conspiracy theorists simply make the GOP look even more picky, petty, churlish. childish, and transparent to most. As long as
their intended party-makers don’t realize they’re being strung along,and they’re not likely to, it will be business as usual with a little fuller crowd – but what a crowd, nothing but enthusiasm!
Kudos to John McCain for setting birthers he encountered on the campaign trail straight about Obama’s birth and citizenship. He did so while he and Obama were opponents. As it turns out, he was born and first toddled in a far off and exotic land, that wasn’t on American soil!
Scandalous news for the Dems? No, not really, he is quite legally able to be president – though born in Panama, which to my knowledge we couldn’t smooth talk into becoming a state as we did the gorgeous Hawaiin Islands. It’s okay, John McCain was born on foreign soil, but with a great technicality up his little sleeve. You see, less black and white and more grey scale birthers. Have a Chi Chi on me, and let’s celebrate the best land grab in my memory. Time share, any time of year!
