NH Goes Birther - Racists!

Just read where  NH legislative whackos filed an 85 page request on the birther issue just a month ago.  And the really sad thing is that this legislator has been obsessing about this for over two years.

Gotta tell you - when people are obsessing about one thing for that long - and can't let it go, there has to be something wrong with them - mentally.  And they should not be in politics, because it's evident that they can't move on to the next thing that needs to be handled.  Time for that NH legislator to retire and start a blog.

I had to take this trip down memory lane – cause we have a tendency to forget or ignore what has happened more than 10 days ago.

The way that I have always interpreted the “birther” thing comes down to this –


If you are a white guy –

it doesn’t matter where you were born –

the GOP will do anything to make you President,

even change the constitution -

but only for a white guy.
History Article #1  **************
Now, debate over a proposed 28th Amendment is focused on the popularity and political future of one man: macho Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger, the former bodybuilder and action-movie star who has been California's governor for barely a year.

With a bit of encouragement from the Terminator himself, some of Schwarzenegger's supporters are pushing for a constitutional amendment that would allow the Austrian-born governor to run for the White House as soon as 2008. Schwarzenegger is blocked by Article 2, Section 1, Clause 5 of the Constitution. It reads, "No person except a natural born citizen ... shall be eligible to the office of president." The 12th Amendment says the vice president cannot be foreign-born.

Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, a political ally of Schwarzenegger, introduced the Equal Right to Govern Amendment in July 2003, a few weeks before the actor declared his candidacy in the recall election in which Californians ousted Democrat Gray Davis as governor.

If Hatch's amendment is adopted, an immigrant who has been a naturalized citizen for 20 years could run for president or vice president.

No, he's not eligible. Born in Austria, he's barred by the Constitution. But that would change under an amendment introduced Wednesday by a fellow California Republican.

Rep. Dana Rohrabacher's proposal would allow anyone who's been a U.S. citizen for 20 years to run for the nation's highest office. That would include Arnold Schwarzenegger - bodybuilder, movie star and now governor of California.
Schwarzenegger, who became a citizen in 1983, has said he supports amending the Constitution so foreign-born citizens can run for president. But he's sidestepped questions about whether he might want to run, saying he's focused on governing California.

RACISTS!
