Lou Dobbs on Obama's Birth Certificate


Lou Dobbs has repeatedly stated that he believes Barack Obama was born in Hawaii. People like Philip J. Berg may be 1,000 percent positive Barry was born in Kenya, but for most folks the issue is not necessarily about if Obama was born in Hawaii, but rather asking why the President is not being upfront with the issue regarding his birth certificate, and eligibility to be President of the United States.

The Associated Press apparently has a problem with Lou Dobbs of CNN being willing to ask the question about Obama's Birth Certificate. The AP has called him a publicity nightmare for CNN, embarrassing his bosses by hosting shows that contradicts CNN's "No Bias."

CNN no bias? Don't even get me started.

Asking the question about Obama's birth certificate is a legitimate question, and Lou Dobbs knows it. He may not necessarily agree with the "birthers," but he believes it is important to at least listen to what these people have to say. Unfortunately, by the mere suggestion that Obama should release his birth certificate, Lou Dobbs has been branded a wing-nut, and war has been declared on him by the liberal left.

As mentioned earlier, Lou Dobbs believes Obama was born in Hawaii. His concern is not whether or not Obama was born in Hawaii, but rather why Obama has refused to release a valid birth certificate, rather than the fake half-job that is floating around liberal sites.

Barack Obama could put the matter to rest by releasing his actual birth certificate, which would show, among other things, the hospital of his birth, and the doctor who performed the birth procedure.

This information is not provided on the document provided before.

And this is not the first time Obama has refused to release key documents. According to NewsMax, Obama has also shielded from the public:

• Obama released just one brief document detailing his personal health. McCain, on the other hand, released what he said was his complete medical file, totaling more than 1,500 pages.

• Obama refused to offer his official papers as a state legislator in Illinois. Nor did he produce correspondence, such as his schedules of appointments or letters from lobbyists, from his days in the Illinois state Senate.

• Obama did not release his client list as an attorney or his billing records. He maintained that he performed only a few hours of legal work for a nonprofit organization with ties to Tony Rezko, the Chicago businessman convicted of fraud in June 2008 but did not release billing records that would prove this assertion.

• Obama ignored requests for his records from Occidental College, where he studied for two years before transferring to Columbia University.

• Obama’s campaign refused to give Columbia, where he earned an undergraduate degree in political science, permission to release his transcripts. Former President George W. Bush and presidential contenders Al Gore and John Kerry all released their college transcripts.

• Obama did not agree to the release of his application to the Illinois State Bar, which would have cleared up intermittent allegations that his application may have been inaccurate.

• Obama did not release records from his time at Harvard Law School.

• During the presidential campaign, McCain’s campaign released a full list of all online donors. Obama’s campaign still has not released the names of those who donated at least one-third of the $750 million he raised.

So much for transparency.
