CNN: No Merit to Birther Claims!


Posted: Apr 26, 2011

For all who are sincerely interested in truth supported by facts, CNN sent an investigator to Hawaii.  Apparently they are better than Trump\\\'s hired investigators as they seem to have cleared up the matter lickety-split.

You may choose to reject knowledge, whether it be liberal, conservative, or otherwise. But then you can no longer claim to be ignorant of the facts...simply ignorant.

At least review the investigation and if you disagree, state your case. Should be easy to prove the "liberal media" wrong, shouldn't it?
I think he hurt himself worse by releasing it - now. He certainly is not

going to change anyone\'s mind about him. He would have done better by saying he was going to cut spending and reduce the deficit. I think less of him today than I did yesterday and I honestly did not think that was possible.

You can choose to reject how he is treating the deficit, how he is walking all over the Constitution...then chide someone else for being ignorant of the facts, and crow about the birth certificate...?

lol.

with his dog and pony show in-your-face press conference that showed as marked a lack of maturity as I have seen from him to date. Like OP said...all that was missing was sticking his tongue out at the camera.

Priceless. Wish I had recorded it, but I have a feeling we may see some of it in campaign ads.

LOL...priceless!

The the closer people get to finding out the truth the more panicked those who don't want to know the truth get and just start putting out anything and everything to try to get people to believe them.

CNN??? Seriously??? - Sorry, CNN is not where I get any truth on anything political wise. You do realize you just can't trust them for an honest answer, don't you?

Sorry, I will wait until someone or a group who is independent (you know, not a protector of either party) provides the information and the proof.

CNN? Nice try.

You're so ready to believe Donald Trump, serial bankrupty filer, without an independent group to verify his claims? Heck, HE hasn't even verified his claims. How irresponsible to accuse the President of the United States of being an illegan alien and not offer one shred of proof. The onus is on Donald Trump to prove HIS claims, which he cannot do. Just wait...as time goes on, you will hear less and less from him on this issue as it begins to slowly unravel.

But hey, knock yourself out. The REPUBLICANS are trying to get him to shut up because they know this is not good for their party to promote lunatic conspiracy theories.

I am far from panicking...sitting back with popcorn.

funny - anon

[ In Reply To ..]
You don't get the point. It's not about believing ANYONE. The proof is in the pudding, so to speak.

I have no reason to believe what Trump says or Obama or anyone else, other than someone I know and trust personally. Trump or a CNN anchor could tell until they're blue in the face that Obama has a pet unicorn and they actually saw it and took it for a ride around the White House grounds, but until I see it for myself, I'll take it with a grain of salt.

Pass the popcorn please.

Did I say I believe Donald Trump? No, I did not. Funny how the people who don't want to know the truth are so eager to jump in and "assume". I am going to wait for an "independent" group to tell us what they find. NOT some agency/news station who has ties to a certain political party.

When Mr. Trump's investigation is over, I will look at the facts he presents and then decide whether or not I believe him and what they found.

Until then I enjoy sitting back watching the democrats and republicans ripping him to shred as they panic.

My question I have that nobody will answer is what if the information he finds proves what you and thousands of followers and worshipers don't want to believe. What then? They don't have any good answers for that one.

I prefer a bag of chips (popcorn kernals get stuck in the teeth).

panic, panic, panic, panic (in my best jaws impression) :-)
Take your pick - Here are independent groups - RadMT

If none of these are to your high standards, please let me know who/what you consider to be trustworthy and I will attempt to get their facts as well. This thing has been so thoroughly debunked, but some still cling to it nonetheless.

Let me answer that elusive question which seems to keep you awake at night: If there is information which proves Barack Hussein Obama was not born in the United States I will...wait for it....admit Trump was right and I was wrong. Now there\'s something you don\'t see everyday, human beings actually admitting they are human beings and not infallible. For me, the truth is neither red nor blue, republican nor democrat. It stands on its own.

Personally, however, I would be devastated because the implications of that would be enormous. That is why it is inexcusable for Donald Trump to make such accusations without backing them up with ANY evidence whatsoever. Surely he is intelligent enough to realize that if his accusations are true, that would cause great turmoil and heartache for millions of citizens in this great nation.

Trump\'s behavior is reckless and irresponsible, to say the least. It tells me a lot about his judgment.

Enjoy your chips!

P.S. Just a suggestion for those kernels: floss, toothbrush, toothpick.

times do we have to explain these groups are receiving funds from the group they are covering. Have you even read about where they get their funding and how it ties in with everything? I guess note.

Nice try...how about an independent source.

Trump is neither reckless or irresponsible. But that's what I'd expect to hear from people who don't want to find out the truth.

panic, panic, panic.
Name an independent source - RadMT
[ In Reply To ..]
You did not answer my question. Name a source you feel is independent. Be careful, though, because by your definition of independent, they apparently cannot receive "funds from the group they are covering."

I am very interested to see who meets that standard.

[ In Reply To ..]
First, you listed sources that receive funds from the very people they write about. Anybody can call themselves independent and free from political ties, which these do, but they receive money from the Annenbberg foundation, which supports the democrats. That is not independent. Say for instance I form a company and Soros (or say Bush on the other side) gives me money to post things would you think that I am independent. No, I would not be.

When I say an independent source it will all depend on what the issues is going on. If there is an investigation and the group shows themselves to be independent and is not funded by either political party then that is what I would call independent.

One thing that screams out to me that these groups are not independent is back when the bc issue came up. They all posted his so called bc, but it was the bad ps copy that you could see his sisters name on (they did not do a very good good whoever ps'd the certificate). Then the borders were not aligned evenly from their cut and paste jobs, yet these groups (who just happened to receive money from the people they were protecting) I do not call independent.

If facts are presented and are inspected/looked at by a group of people, who do not care about political party, but are only interested in putting the facts out there then that is who I will listen to.

I'll look at Snopes to see if something is true (like these phony emails we get) and read whether they are true or bogus, but that's about it.

There are a lot of misleading information out there. When something comes through you need to verify it against several sources, find out who funds whatever group is putting the information out. Cross reference it with other information. If I find out Soros, or Clintons, or Bush's or Palin's or Huff or any other people with a vested interest is funding people to put out the information they want I do not call that independent.
Those are not independent sources - nm
