Mike Huckabee Solidifies His Birther Creds

Mike Huckabee offers advice to Mitt Romney concerning his unreleased tax returns.

Let him [Romney] make this challenge: “I’ll release my tax returns when Barack Obama releases his college transcripts and the copy of his admission records to show whether he got any loans as a foreign student. When he releases that, talk to me about my tax returns.”

A foreign student? For all his supposed good ol’ boy charm and much-touted Christian values, Huckabee is just another run-of-the-mill, right-wing, lying jackass spewing the same birther-crap that’s been refuted time and time again.

And what exactly does the President’s college transcripts have to do with Romney releasing his tax returns?  Nothing.

Bill Maher had a great comment last night about how Romney and his cohorts on the right have created a fictional person to do battle with.  They refer to this opponent as Barack Obama but, in truth, bears no resemblance to the actual person.  Their President Obama is a Marxist who cannot put two thoughts together without the help of a teleprompter.  Their Obama is a tax-raising, money-spending, freedom-hating, Constitution-abusing, power-hungry simpleton who goes around the world apologizing for the U.S.

Any resemblance between the right’s Obama and the one who sits in the White House is nonexistent.

And the further to the right one goes on the political spectrum, the more bizarre the accusations.  Obama is then attributed with siding with the terrorists, is of the Muslim religion and in all likelihood was born in Kenya.  Hello, Orly Taitz and Mike Huckabee.

The right has gone completely mad.  There’s no other rational explanation.

    Excellent point, Mario. Whom they claim to be doing battle with doesn’t exist on this planet (maybe in whatever planet they live)

    The Muslim accusation still interests me. If Barry is in fact Muslim and plans to transform this country into Muslims, my question is —-What the hell is he waiting on? He’s had three years now.

    Is he going to wait until he’s possibility defeated for a second term? ( I know, I know, That’s very rhetorical. But just for sake of argument)

    WHY did he seal his records? LIKE THE TRAITORS BUSH.?

    And NOW a word from the Uninformed Steve Bonzai

    Just why is it the Arrogant and Ignorant Right have no clue how to research facts or even recall events older than 24 hours ago? I guess Rip Van Bonzai was sleeping during the 2008 Election… Poor Little Fellow! The statement below took a whole minute to find on the web.

    At Harvard Law School, Obama graduated Magna Cum Laude, which, according to the Havard Law School website, is awarded to the top 10% of Harvard Law School students.

    Also at Harvard Law School, Obama was accepted as one of 85-90 Editors of the Harvard Law Review, out of an estimated 1,000 students from the 2L and 3L classes that might have sought this honor. Obama was also elected President of the Law Review, which according to a Harvard Law spokesperson is not based at all on academics, but on other measures as would occure in any club.

    Oh and Steve… This is the definition of “Magna Cum Laude…”

    According to Wikipedia.org (even though its Wikipedia its true I learned it in Latin class), these terms are called ”Latin honors” and are used to “indicate the level of academic distinction with which an academic degree was earned.”
    Here is a list of Latin honors, in order of increasing level of honor:

    “cum laude” (Latin for “with honor”)
    “magna cum laude” (Latin for “with great honor”)
    “summa cum laude” (Latin for “with highest honor”)

    By GPA: Graduation with honors ‘cum laude’ requirements can vary but in general: Cum laude grade point average estimates: GPA for cum laude – 3.5 to 3.74; GPA for magna cum laude – 3.75 to 3.99; GPA for summa cum laude – 4.0+.

    Perhaps before Righties come on this site and make asses of themselves, they will do a better job in researching their questions… Ohhhhh Wait, when they do that… No need for the questions afterall

    I don’t recall hearing Pres. Obama urge Mitt to release his tax returns. It’s coming from your own Party, Mike, you hypocritical, hate spewing, garbage mouthed so called “Christian”. Enough of your bull. Go play with your Orly Taitz blowup doll.
