I see no fawning of any kind in that post or any of the other non birther posts.
you choosing what you want to read?
Shining a light is great until you start finding things that are not there. Those are hallucinations and you can see them with the light off too.
This pamphlet is there- either it was a "fact checking error" or Obama or someone close to him gave him this info, and there is jack s chance this Obama supporter/contributor actually remembers this specific detail from 20 years ago
What is an insult about "birther?"
it is used as a term of abuse by people who also throw about erroneous claims of being "crazy"
*sees the irony*

Promise me nothing, your reasoning is preposterous and embarrassing, and once again, the info about Obama's birthplace was either a "fact checking error" or given by Obama or someone close to him.
The fact that you cannot concede this shows you out for the close minded Obamatron troll
*see what I did, I used Obamatron troll like some use birther*

Some great responses and discussion about this never ending topic of POTUS-the Greatest liar of them All.
Just remember as EVERYONE seems to forget and the MSM is only ever so happy to not remind anyone.
The ENTIRE Obama not being someone legally eligible to be POTUS was.....
HILLARY CLINTON and her Supporters during the 2008 POTUS Run> Thank you Mrs. Clinton.

And a booklet many years later saying he was from Kenya.

Close, but not quite. There is a subtle, but important difference.
We have a newspaper several days after his birth saying he was born to parents that resided in Hawaii.
Fixed that for you.
So, you're implying that Obama was born in Kenya, his parents found residency in Hawaii, decided to fly their less than a week old son from Kenya to Hawaii, and then contacted the local paper to report on it?
Sorry if I fail to see the subtle difference.edit on 17-5-2012 by xEphon because: (no reason given)

The lack of journalists posing the question about how the mistake happened to occur in the first place is extremely strange to me. I don't understand why there is practically complete silence from the media as far as proper unbiased investigative journalism in this matter which certainly warrants such inquiry. Shouldn't this make for a good story? "For 16 years a bio of the current US prez said birthplace was not the US, but Kenya!"

I personally think, his Grand Mother blurting out he was born in Kenya, dovetails in nicely with this new bit of Obama history. This is one history he won't be so easily rewriting...
It's not like it is from a single piece of paper/flyer. It's part of a large listing of people on contract with the publicist at the time. I'm sure there are multiple copies, in many hands. BTW, the info a publicist uses, is provided by the person they represent. At that time, Obama wasn't anyone famous, why would anyone alter any information in his section of the booklet. Makes no sense.

Mr. Obama arrived in New York in August 1981, at age 20, from Occidental College in Los Angeles. According to his memoir, he passed his first night in an alley near 109th Street and Amsterdam Avenue, unable to get into his apartment. The next morning, he bathed at a hydrant alongside a homeless man.

I am not telling you to read the thread so that you will understand my position. I am telling you to read the thread because you fail to comprehend most of this. You need to read in order to bring yourself up to speed. I am trying to save you from further embarrassing yourself here. Really just be quiet and try.

You do realize that birth announcements are called into to paper.
Not exactly verified by reporters.
Like in the obituaries. People submit it to the newspaper.
Good lord, basic understanding of these processes would resolve 3 pages full of retorts constructed within your mind frame.

Lasseter reported he noticed a big thick band of blanched white skin around the top of Breitbart’s forehead, extending around the hairline to the back of Breitbart’s head, that him do a “doubletake.”
In the various reports of Breitbart’s death, WND is the first to report an eyewitness observed the thick white band around Breitbart’s forehead.
“There was a thick white band around his forehead all the way around his hairline, bright red face, thick, thick white band – made me make a double take,” Lasseter said.
inquiries about the thick white band have been sent to noted board-certified forensic pathologists Michael Bade

Yep. When my grandma died, we were shocked to see family and friends of hers coming from Nebraska to the wake. When we asked how they found out, we then learned my Auntie had called the paper there, and they printed her obit without any type of verification. She faxed it and there it was.
This happens every day so...... it is not far fetched to think that this is the same circumstance of Obama's birth announcement.
Regardless of plane logs, or released birth certificates that have been fiddled with...... we still have Obama's grandmother's statement. I believe the old woman.
