Via Rumproast, I give you the birther’s theme song. This is what you get when you can’t handle having an African-American President. Let’s all hope (for their sake) they get over it soon enough.
.
.
The lyrics…so you can print and frame ‘em.
A funny thing went down in the presidential race ‘08
The democratic nominee was thought to be so great
But our founders made a rule and what they wrote was really clear
Only natural-born citizens are eligible…my dear
Obama ,tell us where were you born?
‘Cause the media won’t do their job anymore
You’re grandmother in Kenya said you were born on foreign shores
So Barry tell us where oh where were you born?
You’d think that Ol’ Barrack would wanna try and nip this in the bud
To settle all these lawsuits and wipe away the rumor mud
But the one thing that could prove it he won’t let anybody see
A bona fide presidential birth certificate mystery
Obama ,tell us where were you born?
‘Cause the media won’t do their job anymore
You’re grandmother in Kenya said you were born on foreign shores
So Barry tell us where oh where were you born?
Can you confirm Barrack…where were you born?
‘Cause the jpeg on your website was proven forged
I gotta say pal to me this whole thing just smells rotten to the core
So Barry tell us where oh where were you born?
Barrack Hussein Obama tell us…where were you born?
You don’t like your middle name spoken aloud in your side a thorn
Obama tell us where oh where were you born
I said Barack Obama tell us where oh where were you born?

Catchy tune. I’d give it a 7 on a scale of 10, if nothing else for lyrical imagination. And you can certainly line dance to it. Plus, the singer is cute!
Again, I think President Obama is a legitimate citizen. But I do wonder why spend millions of dollars defending these lawsuits when they could easily be laid to rest? (Don’t bother giving me the “gives them credibility” argument when we just handed probably the world’s worst, most infamous dictator a HUGE dose of credibility.)
And why HASN’T the Media investigated this to some point of conclusion? I’m pretty sure if it was a conservative politician, they would not rest until they had in their hands the whatever-copy-it-is they are looking for.
Give it a break Hank. For the millionth time, he has shown his b/c. The Republican Governor of Hawaii has deemed to be an authentic valid and legal b/c. The media has investigated ad nauseum. Your president is black. Deal with it.
Gracious. At first I thought this was going to be a satire. How dismaying to discover that a few folks actually wasted the time, energy and creative effort it took to develop this. Let it go, birthers. Let. It. Go.
You got it Zenith. The racists hide behind the bc issue when it’s really about them not being able to accept the fact that the President of the United States is BLACK and a Democrat. Even worse are the Lou Dobbs and Hank racists who claim they believe Obama is born in the US but still demand to see another bc.
You know, I really don’t care because I understand that even if he WAS illegitimate, more damage would be done by removing him than just allowing him to complete his term while hoping his inexperience and ineptitude doesn’t terminally damage the country.
And I think the reason he spends millions fighting the court challenges is simply because it’s worth more as a detraction than a resolved issue. But why contribute to a divisive issue rather than confront it?
And if you notice, I didn’t and wouldn’t presume to “demand” anything. Lou will have to speak for himself.
But I think it cheapens you and your position when you try to relegate every complaint or disagreement with this President as being racially driven.
And you can say what you want, but the MSM wouldn’t rest on this until one of them had viewed, touched and photographed the what?? Vault Copy?? If you try to state differently, then you have zero credibility.
At least I’m thankful Mario has found another fixation to replace his Bush Derangement Syndrome!
Let me tell you a story ’bout an American man
Who was birthed in this land by an American Mama
This fellow citizen is scorned and hated by the Klan
His mere existence has caused Fringe to be the Queen of Drama
During the 2008 presidential election period
His opponents fully vetted and investigated his creds
The rumors and mud were fast slung and myriad
But his forthright and calm demeanor they could not shred
The Nation elected this man to the Office of President
And those who are uncomfortable about non-white race
Hair Pull and Cry out “No, No, He’s Not A Resident”
His every word, thought and deed, is insanely debased
By people who purport to be of the human race
Barack Hussein Obama is President of this Nation
Elected by votes from the people’s majority
All these birther crazies speak out in desperation
And are shocked and appalled to still be in the minority
So let’s put aside these manufactured contraries
Become our better natures and work on Nation’s troubles
Because it doesn’t take the Queen of Fairies
to foretell if we don’t work together all we’ll get is rubble
The one with zero credibility is you hank. Obama has not spent millions fighting anything. You heard that from the birthers and you repeat it like some little parrot. Evey court case has been thrown out. They’re not being heard because they are baseless. It is so evident you want Obama’s illegitimacy to be true. Typical wingnut.
It’s amazing how people who were born yesterday already have the brain power to write a song. Not a very catchy or factual song, but a song nonetheless.
I came in from a great day at the beach, and I come home to this rubbish. I originally thought it was some kind of song parady.
This? is hideous in every possible way. The music is rubbish, the lyrics are rubbish and this woman is tone deaf.
Now, I can’t figure out which is worse – the stupidity of the message or the painfully, excruciatingly bad songwriting and performance. This talentless “birther” lunatic should be spending her time trying? to get herself out of straight jacket instead of being allowed unsupervised internet access.
Miriam..I am only going on what I know about the Justice System. If you don’t defend a case brought against you, it doesn’t make it to the “dismissal” stage. And one or more cases are still pending but I am of the opinion they will also be dismissed. Every comment I have made on this subject I have declared I believe Obama to be a legitimate citizen and do not think this a credible issue. No ma’am. The true racist here is you, just as the true racist was Professor Gates and yes, President Obama displayed his racist tenancies in his subsequent remarks. So..are you, Gates and Obama the “Typical” racist? ;-)
Anteater..see above re: the Justice System.
Peace N’ Love…Sure. Thanks for the advice. I’ll take it under consideration.
Zenith..No one has seen you and Charles Manson at the same place at the same time either….Hmmmm
Emily…Come on now. You have to at least give her mediocre marks for lyrics and music!! ;-) ;-) I mean, it takes SOME degree of talent to write and compose music for a song.
Okay, no more time to play. Everyone take care and enjoy the remainder of your day.
Funny how people are more concerned about Obama’s birthplace, then by his continuation of Bush’s wars and by his defending and even expanding the Bush administration’s war-on-terrorism powers, which have constituted among the greatest infringements on civil liberties and privacy in our nation’s history.
If anyone is interested, I expanded on my disappointment with Obama here:
Maxene, don’t think so. I wrote a lengthy article on my disappointment with Obama, would have preferred I posted the entire article here, or would it make more sense to post a snippet with a link?
I was prompted for my web site url when I attempted to post my first message, but anyone who clicked my name wouldn’t find my Obama post since it has fallen off of my front page.
Am so very sorry. I misunderstood your post. Was not quite sure where you were coming from. I was out of line. So please accept my humble apology and come back or Mario will kill me.
@Maxene Nah, I’m not killing anyone today. It’s a mellow Sunday…
@Allan Welcome. The policy here is that I don’t mind people periodically linking back to their sites as long as they make relevant comments while on these pages. Not complicated. And again, welcome.
I couldn’t even finish listening to it. When will these people get a life.

Millions of dollars spent by Obama to fight birthers? lol Another right wing creation for the Obama haters to savor.
Advice for Hank. Turn off fixed news and hopefully you wont be ignorant anymore.
@Peace lol
@Janine I like it! Of course it is to be sung to the Beverly Hillbillies theme song.
Has anyone but me noticed that we never see Lou Dobbs and Hank at the same place at the same time. Suspicious.
It’s amazing how people who were born yesterday already have the brain power to write a song. Not a very catchy or factual song, but a song nonetheless.

@crazy lunatic birthers………
This is just embarrassing. YOUR PRESIDENT IS BLACK! GET OVER? IT!

@Hank – It was a country song. It doesn’t require talent.
@Tommy we finally agree
Funny how people are more concerned about Obama’s birthplace, then by his continuation of Bush’s wars and by his defending and even expanding the Bush administration’s war-on-terrorism powers, which have constituted among the greatest infringements on civil liberties and privacy in our nation’s history.

Could be worse, I guess, but so far, it just seems more of the same.
@ Allan, So let’s get serious here…only reason you came here was to plug your blog.
“If anyone is interested, I expanded on my disappointment with Obama here”
