Sen. Richard (DICK) Shelby hints at Obama not being native born...

[Postman]

"Well his father was Kenyan and they said he was born in Hawaii, but I haven't seen any birth certificate," Shelby said. "You have to be born in America to be president."

.....Interesting Wikipedia entry for Richard(DICK)Shelby --

"Shelby claims to be born in Birmingham, Alabama to Alice L. Skinner and Ozie Houston Shelby, although this has never been fully confirmed"

1. LOL, I'm fairly sure a progressive prankster did that as a response to this story...

...enjoy it while it lasts.

2. It's just....

...Sedevacantism, for Baptists.

[The Wielding Truth]

3. Isn't it true that Shelby himself is not a naturally born citizen?

I think everyone who throws this smear out there, should be as closely scrutinized in every portion of their life as those who have been accused. It is reckless and ridiculous to have to prove and reprove your birth.

[Bicoastal]

4. I have never seen Shelby's birth certificate...

...for all we know, it doesn't exist!!!!1!!1!!

[Postman]

7. I haven't seen it either.

You have to be born in the United States to be President. And crabs walk sideways....

.....any other statements of fact we missed?

[Bicoastal]

10. deleted--I'm dumb

[Postman]

12. Oh no, no, no....I didn't mean it as a remark to you....

I meant it as an add on to your comment...sorry for the confusion

[The Wielding Truth]

14. They should be hit with the same ridiculous accusations!

15. What about his family tree, and how are his taxes and his financing?

6. The GOP is just trying to get Obama impeached...

[malaise]

8. Ding ding

Rethugs believe they own power and will destroy anyone in their path. Ask Bill Clinton.
Democrats will either put these criminals in prison or they will facilitate the destruction of the entire political system. Rethug rules are simple - by any means necessary.

9. REMEMBER THE SLIME THAT IS THE REPUB PARTY

SLIMED CARTER, DESTROYED CLINTON, VICIOUS TO OBAMA, AND WHERE WAS IT THAT KENNEDY WAS KILLED

11. What a fucking IDIOT Richard Shelby is!!

1. I have no doubt that Richard Shelby KNOWS Barack Obama was born in Hawaii. Read his weasely words. He never comes right out and denies it. That means...

2. He is reinforcing the ignorance of his constituents to shore up his political position. What kind of rubes does Shelby think he's representing? Well, scratch that. If they think Barack Obama wasn't born in Hawaii, or that there's even a possibility that's true, we know what kind of dumbfucks we're dealing with. And Shelby must know this, too. That's why he's throwing them a bone.

Senator Richard Shelby: keeping the dumbfucks ignorant and angry so he can keep being ignorant and angry in the Senate. Time for this asshole to go.

[Postman]

13. I think you're spot on...

[DearAbby]

16. Are all

the mouth-breathing, knuckle dragging 23% droolers, from his state?

[Bolo Boffin]

17. No.

Mississippi is still part of the union.

[The Gunslinger]

18. That's not a hint

That is a full blown accusation.

[marmar]

19. Shelby is a mealy-mouthed POS........

Southern Republican males are the lowest form of life on this planet.

[Iwillnevergiveup]

20. Paging Richard Shelby

The train has left the station....Hawaii is a state....hello.....YOU LOST!

21. Senator Shelby is heavily into pork barrel spending for Alabama but resents anyone

else getting anything.

Senator Shelby procures about $10 million a month in pork barrel spending for the state of Alabama. Yet he's the one who insists that we shouldn't do the same for other states (i.e., stimulus package). The guy's an ass. He started as a Dixiecrat, switched to Republican because he got into a tussle with Clinton and even John McCain hates him.

22. LOL now his Wiki entry says he's a member of the KKK. n/t

[VP505]

23. A Senator continuing to

spread hurtful gossip like that ought to have to prove he has a brain to stay in office. Will this crap ever be disproved enough times for RW bozos to GET IT.
