“Why has Obama, for over 2 years, employed numerous private and government attorneys to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells and millions of concerned Americans
“And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed
–if all records told the same tale–then the lie passed into
history and became truth. “Who controls the past,” ran the
Party slogan, “controls the future: who controls the present
controls the past.”…George Orwell, “1984″
The two quotes above should be enough to scare the hell out of any concerned American. The problem is that most Americans are unaware of them because of our Orwellian, biased, paid off mainstream media. They have made a deal with the devil. At least Lou Dobbs, on CNN of all places, asked the basic journalistic question, “Why doesn’t Obama provide his birth certificate?”
We know what the agenda and motives are of people like Anderson Cooper. Glenn Beck, if I understand his motives, believes that the Obama birth certificate controversy is a diversion. It may be. However, the American people deserve to hear the truth, the facts. Let them decide for themselves why Obama has employed so many attorneys to not only avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate, but college records and other records. We know that he lied on his IL bar application (documented) and his selective service compliance is questionable. It may be as simple as that.
Does Glenn Beck believe he is smarter than the collective wisdom of the American people?
Glenn, call me.
Here is a simple summary of what a Hawai COLB is and what was presented on the internet in 2008. This is simple enough for Beck, Cooper and congressmen.
From Citizen News.
“Even if the COLB posted on the internet came from the State of HI, it is not a birth certificate and only proves that information about a birth was presented to the Hawaii Health Department.”
Will Obama appointees be removed when Obama is removed from office?
Blagojevich appointees to be removed.
From Citizen News December 3, 2010.
“The Illinois Senate today approved a measure aimed at ridding state government of hundreds of appointees put in place before Gov. Pat Quinn was sworn into office.”
“Many of them came in under impeached ex-Gov. Rod Blagojevich, Quinn’s predecessor, which spurred attempts to “fumigate” state government after Blagojevich was removed from office.”
“The unemployment rate, which is obtained from a separate household survey, unexpectedly rose to 9.8% last month. More than 15 million people who would like to work can’t get a job.”
“The U.S. unemployment rate has now been above 9% since May 2009, or 19 months. That matches the longest stretch at such an elevated level since World War II. In the deep recession of the early 1980s, the jobless rate crept to 9% in March 1982 and remained above that mark until September 1983.”
Anderson Cooper Leo Berman interview, I mean interrogation, Orwellian word manipulation, CNN propaganda minister
“Why has Obama, for over 2 years, employed numerous private and government attorneys to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells and millions of concerned Americans
“I discovered this article, folded away among my BIRTH CERTIFICATE and old vaccination forms, when I was in high school,”…Obama, “Dreams of My Father”
Anderson Cooper interviewed, I mean interrogated, Texas State Representative, Leo Berman on November 29, 2010. The last on air personality on CNN to have journalistic integrity, Lou Dobbs, left earlier this year for obvious reasons.
Although Mr. Berman did not have a perfect command of the facts and got pulled into classic far left debates and diversions, I commend Leo Berman for doing so much homework, having such a command of knowledge and caring enough about this country and the US Constitution to speak out boldly and push for common sense legislation.
One of the most important things that Representative Berman spoke of was that no member of the US Congress in January of 2009 spoke up or vetted Barack Obama before or during the certification of the Electoral College Votes. Leo Berman spoke with eloquence and authority.
The other side of the patriot coin is Anderson Cooper. Be assured that when Robert Gibbs steps down, a better manipulator of words, a better spokesman for big brother, is available, Anderson Cooper. When you watch the following video observe how Cooper so expertly employs the tactics of the far left to blur clear issues and divert attention from them. And don’t forget the big lie. Has cooper practiced to emulate Joseph Goebbels?
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.”…Joseph Goebbels
Anderson Cooper, do you know you are speaking lies or are you just repeating the often told lies?
Much of the interview was spent debating the birth certificate issues. Leo Berman repeatedly asked, as did Lou Dobbs, to see an original long form birth certificate. John McCain when questioned early in 2008 produced one. Cooper kept hammering that Obama had produced one, FactCheck.org had examined and verifed it and that the short form, COLB, was all that the State of Hawaii offered. Lies.
Anderson Cooper was at his far left, diversionary best when responding to the passport and dual citizenship issues. This is when Berman was at his worst and perhaps not totally prepared. Cooper kept hammering away at why Obama might not have dual citizenship and may have traveled to Pakistan legally.
Here is the truth about Obama’s possible dual citizenship and passport.
Obama did not have two US Citizen parents as McCain did. Obama’s father was Kenyan and therefore British. The founding fathers understood that two citizen parents were required to be a Natural Born Citizen. That is why the US Constitution was worded to grandfather them in. And if you do not have a good knowledge of that subject, consider the following US Senate Resolution 511 that Obama signed.
“Whereas John Sidney McCain, III, was born to American citizens on an American military base in the Panama Canal Zone in 1936: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That John Sidney McCain, III, is a `natural born Citizen’ under Article II, Section 1, of the Constitution of the United States.”
The passport question is simple. Whether or not Obama traveled to Pakistan legally can be debated. What is nondebatable and highly questionable is the fact that Obama has kept all of his records, including past passports, hidden.
Another big lie that Cooper told was that a couple of people have filed lawsuits against Obama. The number is far larger than 2. Also, the Supreme Court has not ruled on Obama eligibility. What they have done is failed to do their duty.
Cooper pick on someone your own “size” like Citizen Wells, Mario Apuzzo, Charles Kerchner or others who have been following these stories and paying attention.
If you are a current or new member of Congress, listen to the words and the challenge of American Patriot Leo Berman of Texas. Do your damn job. You swear an oath to defend the US Constitution.
I am not suprised that the legislation and voice of reason presented by Leo Berman came out of Texas. The people there still have some damn sense. God bless Texas. God bless the US.
Anderson Cooper, you are not getting away with this.

As reported here yesterday:
“The Citizen Wells Citizen News site has a new page devoted to Obama eligibility information and lawsuits. This is an effort to organize numerous articles and information on the subject as well as introduce information to a new audience or an old audience with clearer vision.”
As part of this process, I have been revisiting the early history of the Obama eligibity issues and in particular the COLB that was posted on several pro Obama sites. Two of the mouthpieces of the Obama camp, Wikipedia and FactCheck.org will be presented as examples of Orwellian, Nazi Germany type propaganda and the far left agenda of “the end justifies the means.”
Here is just a snippet of the propaganda from Wikipedia:
“conspiracy theories.
The Obama campaign released his birth certificate, certified by the Hawaii Department of Health, and posted a scanned image of it online. The posted certificate states that Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on August 4, 1961.[1] The certificate also states, “This copy serves as prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court proceeding”. Frequent arguments of those questioning Obama’s eligibility are that he has not released a photocopy of his “original” birth certificate, and that the use of the term “certification of live birth” on the document means it is not equivalent to one’s “birth certificate”. These arguments have been debunked numerous times by media investigations,[10] every judicial forum that has addressed the matter, and Hawaiian government officials—a consensus of whom have concluded that the certificate released by the Obama campaign is indeed his official birth certificate.[11] Asked about this, Hawaiian Department of Health spokeswoman Janice Okubo stated that Hawaii “does not have a short-form or long-form certificate”.[12] Moreover, the director of her Department has confirmed that the state “has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.”
The paragraph above is loaded with Orwellian lies and misinformation.
Congress and the US Supreme Court will be held accountable. I will be making a followup call with Senator Richard Burr’s office this week. I hope to simplify the presentation of information regarding the pseudo birth certificate and get their attention.
My article on the truth about the COLB wil be presented soon. The intent is not to replicate other efforts or reinvent the wheel, but to present a simplified summary that even a congressman can understand.

“From the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal November 17, 2010.”
“The so-called “birther movement,” which questions Obama’s citizenship, started during the 2008 presidential campaign and though most news organizations have reported that there is overwhelming evidence that the president was born in Hawaii in 1961, there is small percentage of the U.S. population which is not convinced.”
“My response to the following paragraph from above:
“The so-called “birther movement,” which questions Obama’s citizenship, started during the 2008 presidential campaign and though most news organizations have reported that there is overwhelming evidence that the president was born in Hawaii in 1961, there is small percentage of the U.S. population which is not convinced.”
The following is a factual statement:
“most news organizations have reported that there is overwhelming evidence that the president was born in Hawaii in 1961″
Most “news organizations” did repeat that lie.
“there is small percentage of the U.S. population which is not convinced.”
Apparently, the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal is part of the conspiracy to perpetuate the lies.
Facts:
July 2009 AOL Poll: 81% say Obama should release birth certificate.
August 2009 Public Policy Polling of Virginia:
Born elsewhere 24%
Not sure 24%
July 2010 CNN Poll: Less than half were convinced of Obama US birth.
Probably born in US 29 %
Probably born elsewhere 16 %
Definitely born elsewhere 11 %
So, Lubbock Avalanche-Journal, what is your excuse for inaccurate reporting?”

“Why has Obama, for over 2 years, employed numerous private and government attorneys to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells and millions of concerned Americans
New members of Congress recently received indoctrination on how Congress works. If past results are any indication, forget everything you heard unless it pertained to…
Uphold and defend the US Constitution. It is the supreme law of the land.
Support the military.
Listen to the public and act like you have some damn sense.
Most in the military take their oath to defend the US Constitution seriously. One military officer, LTC Terry Lakin, is living that oath.
THANK YOU to everyone for the tremendous response and participation in “Terry Lakin Action Week”- your phone calls and messages are making a difference. We apologize to anyone who hasn’t received a response yet back to an email- we do our best to keep up, but it is hard sometimes to keep abreast of all requests and comments received.
PLEASE KEEP UP THE PRESSURE- PHONE CALLS TO ELECTED OFFICIALS MATTER- AND A SPECIAL THANKS TO THOSE OF YOU WHO WALKED INTO CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT OFFICES TO RAISE YOUR VOICE IN SUPPORT OF LTC LAKIN.
Just this week, there were significant new developments on the eligibility front:
A state legislator in Texas introduced a bill requiring presidential candidates to file birth certificates- with the notable comment below:
“This bill is necessary because we have a president whom the American people don’t know whether he was born in Kenya or some other place,’ Rep. Leo Berman, R-Tyler, said in reference to President Barack Obama and of House Bill 295. ‘If you are running for president or vice president, you’ve got to show here in Texas that you were born in the United States and the birth certificate is your proof. http://lubbockonline.com/local-news/2010-11-17/birth-certificate-bill-filed-presidential-candidates
AND— former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, in an interview in Anchorage pointed out the failure to vet Barack Obama in 2008:
Sarah Palin chatted with KWHL’s Bob and Mark Show to discuss the re-release of John Ziegler’s documentary How Obama Got Elected and her travelogue series, telling Bob and Mark that the hagiographic coverage of Obama in 2007-8 is now “coming home to roost”:
We know that Obama wasn’t vetted through the campaign, and now, you know, some things are coming home to roost, if you will, which is inexperience, his associations, and that ultimately harms our republic when a candidate isn’t – isn’t vetted by the media, that cornerstone of our democracy. So, you’re right, it’s not about me and whether you like my politics or not. You can push all that aside, and just pay attention to what that message is in this documentary, and that is that things have got to change for the better in the state of journalism. Otherwise, you know, it could be part of a demise of our democracy if that cornerstone erodes.
High ranking military officers are speaking out, questioning Obama’s eligibility and at least one general has called for Obama’s resignation. If you were in Congress in 2008 and 2009 and bought in to the Orwellian lies from the media and Obama camp and the hustle from Obama, pay attention and admit that you made a mistake. If you are not willing to trust members of the military like LTC Terry Lakin, then pay attention to this.
Obama the hustler.
“Bartle Bull, lifelong liberal Democrat, Civil Rights Attorney, called Obama a “hustler.””
(From Atlas Shrugs)
“The Biggest Hustle in Human History”
“Is the President’s resume accurate when it comes to his career and qualifications? I can corroborate that Obama’s “teaching career” at Chicago was, to put it kindly, a sham.
I spent some time with the highest tenured faculty member at Chicago Law a few months back, and he did not have many nice things to say about “Barry.” Obama applied for a position as an adjunct and wasn’t even considered. A few weeks later the law school got a phone call from the Board of Trustees telling them to find him an office, put him on the payroll, and give him a class to teach. The Board told him he didn’t have to be a member of the faculty, but they needed to give him a temporary position. He was never a professor and was hardly an adjunct.
The other professors hated him because he was lazy, unqualified, never attended any of the faculty meetings, and it was clear that the position was nothing more than a political stepping stool. According to my professor friend, he had the lowest intellectual capacity in the building. He also doubted whether he was legitimately an editor on the Harvard Law Review, because if he was, he would be the first and only editor of an Ivy League law review to never be published while in school (publication is or was a requirement).
Consider this: 1. President Barack Obama, former editor of the Harvard Law Review, is no longer a “lawyer”. He surrendered his license back in 2008 possibly to escape charges that he “fibbed” on his bar application. …”
“Curiously, since I relayed a report of Obama’s “teaching career” at Chicago (he was apparently never a law professor, as some have claimed), the Illinois Bar has decided to partially redact what little public information it had available on its website related to the President’s legal status.”
Congress acted on misinformation and lies in 2008 2009, Obama eligibility, Congressmen better pay attention now
“Why has Obama, for over 2 years, employed numerous private and government attorneys to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells and millions of concerned Americans
I don’t always reveal all that I am thinking about or working on. I do continue to support LTC Terry Lakin as well as uphold the US Constitution. This blog, as often stated, is a group effort. Major players in the Obama eligibility issues send me info on a regular basis. A recent one was a reminder that Richard Burr, senator from NC, made foolish, uninformed statements regarding Obama’s eligibility. As a resident and lifelong citizen of NC, I feel an obligation to set the record straight with Mr. Burr. I intend to do so.
As reported by The American Patriot Foundation.
“Certain Members of Congress based their claims that Obama was born in Hawaii almost entirely upon an online document (a Certifi-cation of Live Birth – not to be confused with an original birth certificate) – which the State of Hawaii has refused to verify as a state-issued document. In some cases, Congressmen out-sourced research on the eligibility issue to Senator Obama’s office, or to Obama-friendly websites such as FactCheck.org. or friendly news-papers. Yet with regard to McCain, the Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing to try to determine his “natural born” status and approved a non-binding resolution affirming his eligibility. Senator McCain produced a long-form birth certificate (with hospital and attending doctor’s name) after being subjected to relentless ques-tions about his eligibility. Senator Obama co-sponsored this legisla-tion, but never produced a copy of his original birth certificate, and to this day, refuses to provide the name of a hospital of birth or an attending physician’s name to corroborate his claimed birth in Ha-waii.”
“Richard Burr:
Statement: “It is my understanding that President-Elect Obama
has released an official copy of his birth certificate. Since
he was born in 1961 in Hawaii, he is eligible under the Constitution
to run for and hold the office of President of the United
States. In addition, President-elect Obama’s birth records
have been certified and validated by the Hawaii Department
of Health as well as by experts from the University of Pennsylvania.”
Editorial comment: A Certification of Live Birth is NOT an
original birth certificate. No one from the the University of
Pennsylvania has ever certified and validated Obama’s original
birth certificate or any birth record from the Hawaiian Dept of
Health.”
To: Senator Burr
From: Citizen Wells
I will be contacting your office to inform you of this article and my intentions. I believe that you are an honorable man and a decent senator who, like so many others in Congress and the nation, were fooled by a slick Orwellian propaganda machine. However, that does not relieve you of your obligation to learn the truth and follow your oath to defend the US Constitution.
Senator Burr, first ponder the simple question:
“Why has Obama, for over 2 years, employed numerous private and government attorneys to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”
I will be glad to explain this to you in more detail, with copies of press releases and court records, but to further get your attention, consider this.
These two characters look like they just left a frat party.
From The Obama File.
“I was looking for a photo to add to the left column, when I re-discovered these photos of the two people who “certified” Obama’s eligibility to serve as POTUS.
They are employees of FactCheck.org, an organization that bills itself as “non-partisan,” but is part of the Annenberg network of liberal-left causes and organizations — just like Bill Ayers’ Chicago Annenberg Challenge — Annenberg, and its causes, are way left of center.
As the world now knows, FactCheck.org published a web page entitled, “Born in the U.S.A. — The truth about Obama’s birth certificate.” The entire webpage is ONE BIG LIE!
The counterfeit document FactCheck.org is proffering on this page, and refers to as a birth certificate — 31 times — is not a birth certificate — it’s not even real — it’s a bunch of zeroes and ones on a server database. At least three qualified examiners have said it’s bogus. But that didn’t stop FactCheck.org from employing Goebbel’s “Big Lie” technique:
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
And it worked!
This absurd webpage, and the bogus document it contains, has been referenced by judges, members of Congress and the ObamaMedia as prima facie evidence that Barack Obama is eligible to serve as Commander in Chief, even though the Obama Campaign has publicly admitted that Obama was — “at birth” — a citizen of Kenya, a British subject and is a “native [born US] citizen” — it’s on their website — anchor babies are “native born citizens.”
“Native born” citizenship status is different than “natural born” citizenship. “Native born” American citizens are simply not eligible to serve as Commander in Chief.
FactCheck.org identifies their anal-ists as Jess Henig and Joe Miller. OK, that’s fine, but who and what are Jess Henig and Joe Miller? Are they qualified to perform an analysis of ANY document, or are they just a couple of guys hanging around FactCheck.org’s office, or are they political operators? What are their bona fides? FactCheck.org doesn’t say. Wonder why?”
“Well, I found out. The two FactCheck.org employees who were granted access to Obama’s bogus Certification of Live Birth (COLB) are NOT document examiners or experts. Joe Miller has a Ph. D. in Political Philosophy — so he’s a political operative — while Jess Henig has an M.A. in English Literature — I’m not sure her dye-job is a political or esthetic statement. ”
US Constitution Hall of Shame, New Congressmen, Will they listen?, Will they obey the Constitution?
“Why has Obama, for over 2 years, employed numerous private and government attorneys to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells and millions of concerned Americans
From the US Constitution Hall of Shame, created in 2008.
““I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the
Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and
domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same;
that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation
or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge
the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.” Congressional oath of office
The following Senators and Representatives were added to
the US Constitution Hall of Shame because of their
inaccurate or ambiguous responses to concerns voiced to
them about Barack Obama’s eligibility. The congressmen
provided reponses that ranged from confused to utter
stupidity and party bias. It is recognized that many of
them have been fooled just as many in the public have
been. Some of these congressmen have a consistent
pattern of putting party politics over country. However,
it is hoped that many, when confronted with the facts
relating to Obama’s eligibility and the 2008 election,
will ask questions and endeavor to seek the truth.
Congress will convene on January 8, 2009 to count and
validate the Electoral College votes. This presents an
opportunity to challenge the Electoral College votes and
Obama’s eligibility. It is apparent, that after learning
the truth about Obama’s lack of qualifications, many in
congress will be compelled to demand that Obama provide
proof of eligibility.
Contact these congressmen and make sure they know the truth.
We suggest that you call their office(s).”
Not one member of Congress stood up to challenge Obama’s eligibility before or during the Electoral College certification in January 2009, despite being forewarned and despite their oaths to uphold the US Constitution.
There has been “much water over the dam” since that moment. More of the real Barack Obama has been exposed. More candidates running for office during the last election have been listening to the public, more have aligned themselves with the Constitution and anti big government initiatives like the Tea Party Movement.
I am requesting your input. Of all the new members of Congress, who do you believe is most ready to “walk the walk” and not just “talk the talk” regarding Constitutional issues, including, but not limited to, Obama’s eligibility.
Republicans vow to cut spending repeal health care bill, John Boehner, New Speaker of the House
From the Chicago Tribune November 5, 2010.
“Victorious at the polls, congressional Republicans asserted their newfound political strength on Thursday, vowing to seek a quick $100 billion in federal spending cuts and force repeated votes on the repeal of President Barack Obama’s prized health care overhaul.
At the White Houses, Obama said his administration was ready to work across party lines in a fresh attempt to “focus on the economy and jobs” as well as attack waste in government. In a show of bipartisanship, he invited top lawmakers to the White House at mid-month, and the nation’s newly elected governors two weeks later.
Rep. John Boehner, R-Ohio, in line to become the new speaker of the House, brushed aside talk that the No. 1 GOP goal was to make sure Obama is defeated at the polls in 2012. “That’s Senator McConnell’s statement and his opinion,” he told ABC, referring to the party’s leader in the Senate and adding that his own goals included cutting spending and creating jobs.”
“Many House Republicans campaigned on a platform of cutting government spending to levels in effect in 2008, before enactment of an economic stimulus bill and other increases that Democrats passed. Rep. Jerry Lewis of California, the senior Republican on the House Appropriations Committee, notified Democrats during the day that GOP lawmakers will try and implement the cuts when Congress considers the spending bill needed to keep most agencies running for the next eight months. The estimated savings total $100 billion.
“The unmistakable message sent by the American people on Tuesday is that they are justifiably angry at Washington. They want Congress to cut spending,” wrote Lewis, who faces an internal challenge in his attempt to become chairman of the panel next year.
At a news conference on Wednesday, the president signaled he was ready to jettison his campaign-long insistence that tax cuts be extended for earners at incomes up to $250,000 but be allowed to expire for higher-income people.”
New Congress action plan, Work together, Create job creation environment, Fix health care
As many of you know, I am not in love with either political party or party politics. Choosing to vote for the Republican Party candidates in 2010 was clearly the lesser of evils, a real no brainer. That being said, any candidate involved in the recent elections should realize that the American public is fed up with status quo from both sides. Come the next election cycle, any candidate, Republican or Democrat who has not listened to their constituents, who has not done the right things for America, who has not upheld the US Constitution, will be booted out of office.
Here is a simple emergency action plan, not a complete agenda.
Restore confidence in the business world. Define as soon as possible what the taxes will be and assure business that there will be no hidden health care surprises. This will begin to allow them to consider hiring and expansion.
Assure the country that the Tax & Spend Bill, aka Health Care Bill that was rammed down the throats of Americans will be deactivated or disarmed in it’s current state. It has too many negative connotations.
At the same time assure the country and reach out to the Democrat Party to achieve real health care reform. Maintain our present quality and then adjust the system beginning with a few goals such as portability and opening up health insurance across state lines.
Begin phasing in a series of incentives to small businesses in energy technology and practical residential applications such as passive solar and small scale wind energy. I happen to be knowledgeable in this area.
Restore confidence in Congress and our institutions. Begin acting more like statesmen and less like politicians.
Lastly, and I believe most important, acknowledge and pledge a new allegiance to the US Constitution as the supreme law of the land.
Obviously I have more to say, but will reserve those comments for the appropriate time.
We have put a bandaid on this country, now is the time to heal it.
