Wow!

Anything to back this up with?

Because that would be interesting to see.

You keep saying that, and asserting the "fact" that Obama has spent large amounts of money to hide something.

Please, can you point me to a link that can tell me more about this?
It is a story purported to be a claim by the United States Justice Foundation that the Obama campaign spent $950,000 on legal fees to hide records.
The only problem there seems to be that the Foundation has never made any such claim and have gone on record to say it is a hoax story .

Whodathunkit eh?
Whats really funny is that much of this conspiracy drivel that some are touting here as "fact" originates from a hoax chain e-mail from April 1st.
Its amazing that all these months later they don't realise it was fake.

So what? Do you hold something against every Ted, Charlie and Jeffrey and John because they *gasp!* share the same name as a famous serial killer? :roll:

Put your partisan fangs away mookie. I didn't say I held anything against him, I just said he's a ripe target in that regard.

As for your Ted, Charlie, Jeffrey and John example: "Hussein" is no where near as common in this country as those names. How about a middle name of "Adolph"? or "Pol Pot" instead? Can you see the difference from behind those democrat covered glasses you wear?

Honestly... just about all of them at offical functions and their 'full name' is on legal documents.

Furthermore certanly they did not go out of their way to make sure no one uses their middle name.

Its semantics of course but indicative of a bigger picture.

Official functions, yes, everybody uses their middle name. Obama used Hussein at the inauguration.

But the initial accusation was that Obama had gotten the mainstream media to not use his middle name. My point was that in everyday news coverage, Presidents are almost never referred to with their middle name. Middle initials are somewhat common, or all three initials (FDR, JFK, LBJ), but I don't recall any who were routinely referred to with their middle name. I didn't even know Clinton's middle name until the impeachment stuff.

And as I suspected, the claim that Obama is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to keep his birth certificate secret came from.... chain e-mails! I'll bet that the same is true for the new gem that he's an Indonesian citizen. Here's a tip - if you read something in a chain e-mail, IT'S NOT TRUE!

A U.S. Army Reserve major from Florida scheduled to report for deployment to Afghanistan within days has had his military orders revoked after arguing he should not be required to serve under a president who has not proven his eligibility for office.
His attorney, Orly Taitz, confirmed to WND the military has rescinded his impending deployment orders.
Interesting turn of events.

Whats a chain email? I dont know I dont get them I have a decent spam filter.

The point I am making about Obama having his middle name suppressed during the race is simply that it was sucessfully suppressed.

If a jornulaist or talk show host showed the bad taste of metioning his full name they would be chastised and threatened with 'legal' action.

But when it came time to 'negotiate' with the middle east he was all proud of if.

Again to me its not a big deal, as is his dubious citizenship, but put that with his past associations, action committies, church, relationships and on and on it starts to complete a puzzle.

Simply stated Obama is not whom he portrays he is. He ran as a centrist conservative and is nothing of the sort.

Who was threatened with legal action?

Link? I'm getting rather tired of the unsubstantiated claims in this thread.

As far as Obama not being who he says he is, I agree with that statement, but for completely opposite reasons. I actually think he portrayed himself as a liberal, but he's more pragmatic than people think. He's not one of those bleeding heart, save the world types. But that's another argument for another time.

And my point was that there was nothing to suppress, because it wasn't something the media was going to talk about anyways. They didn't talk about McCain's middle name either (I actually don't know what it is).

It's like saying that Obama prevented the media from saying he's left-handed. Yes the media didn't talk about it, but not because Obama told them not to.

SteamWake 07-15-09 10:21 AM

You know your not going to find links I'm just a wacko nut job that makes this crap up. Even though those guys talked about it on the air.

Ill look and see what I can find but yea sure I make all this up. :doh:
