It’s not about the birth certificate but the Constitution

In the brief time since Barack Obama released his long form birth certificate on Wednesday, much has been made over the fact that the birthers have been proved wrong and the issue, thus, will now go away. While some who have been labeled as birthers have, indeed, focused exclusively on the birth certificate, the issue has nothing to do with whether or not Obama was born in Hawaii.

Even liberals admit that Obama is not much at the job of governance. When in Washington, he leaves governance to leaders in Congress, as he did to Reid and Pelosi in the first years of this presidency. Or else he flounders about, shifting from one position to another trying to find something that works, or he morphs into the churlish scorn whose unpleasant side comes out when he doesn't get his way.

The Mendacity of Barack Obama

Barack Obama is the most dishonest, deceitful, and mendacious person in a position of power I have ever witnessed. Over my 45+ years in the business community, both domestic and international, I have dealt with an overwhelming variety of people of all races and political philosophies. Men and women who were thoroughly honest and many who had no concept of honor and integrity. Among them were those who would do or say anything to achieve their ends and do so with a straight face and an air of self-confidence that would deceive the most gullible. It is only through painful experience that one is finally able to develop an antenna to quickly weed out those charlatans.
