To Chris Goodrow on the 'birther' issue. I'm not a birther. I don't care where Obama was born. The issue is his fraudulent birth certificate, social security number and Selective Service card.
Chief Justice Roberts of the US Supreme Court scheduled and held conference hearings on these documents about six months ago. See Supreme Court documents No. 12A606 Title: Edward Noonan, et al., Applicants v. Deborah Bowen, California Secretary of State Docketed: December 13, 2012 Lower Ct: Supreme Court of California Case Nos.: (S207078)
and from the Israel Science and Technology Website ...Israel Science and Technology, the national database and directory of science and technology-related websites in Israel, has published an article asserting the long-form birth certificate released by the White House is a forged document.
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:hzwiqEiT3CcJ:www.science.co.il/Obama-Birth-Certificate.htm+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us The website was created by a former science adviser to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel Hanukoglu, Ph.D. Hanukoglu, an award-winning researcher, is a professor of biochemistry and molecular biology in Israel. The professor established the first version of his website during his tenure as Netanyahu’s science adviser. The site has evolved into “the premier science and technology portal for Israel.” Read more at http://www.wnd.com/2012/09/israeli-science-website-obama-birth-certificate-forged/#TAczdwkvPjAjKy40.99
And Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court Roy Moore is also now in the frey. http://wonkette.com/514607/alabama-birthers-very-excited-state-supreme-court-justice-roy-moore-will-make-obama-just-go-away
I don't agree with any of the ideologies of these people, but they are on to something, and they are very powerful people. Why would they do this and could they do this without convincing evidence.... NO.
I rest my case.

Dave,
While I appreciate the offer, I don't see it as an issue. I also wouldn't go on the radio to discuss with birthers my opinion of that.
Here's something I never quite understood. We know two planes hit the World Trade Center buildings. What reason would there be to place detonators in surrounding buildings? Did the actual perpetrators of this feel that two planes flying into the twin towers and one into the Pentagon wouldn't bring enough outrage to the American people to help justify going into Afghanistan or Iraq later with the right amount of propaganda? We would need surrounding buildings to collapse to finally put us over the edge?
Oh wait, that's right, a plane didn't fly into the Pentagon. That was a missile, right? Then where did that plane go? Did it just disappear?
My point is that not only do I feel I don't need to spend time and energy investigating 9/11, I also don't feel the need to spend time and energy arguing against the conspiracy theory.
As far as our government is concerned involving 9/11, if anything, their complicity would be negligence.
Chris

>>You claim there are only two possible reasons people would disagree with this conspiracy theory. Either misinformed or a ulterior motive for doing so. You left out one other possibility which I feel I fall under. Maybe we just think it's bunk. For as many people who think this as fact, there are so many more who do not, many of them architects or engineers.

>>I'll go out on a limb here and defend Carl Estabrook to a certain degree. Why is it that certain people can get so disturbed by a 'library' story and then not participate in any sort of local action involving national issues such as fracking, jails-for-profit, manufactured wars. It can be likened to CNN's calculated fixation on George Zimmerman. But this is too harsh because I don't know enough about the individuals who are so exited about the 'library' issue..so I'll back off of that. I agree we shouldn't disparage them. I will not only defend Carl but take it one more step and ask why there is very little attention paid to the 9/11 Truth movement.
>>>There is more than ample proof that 9/11 was an inside job. Anyone who disagrees with this has not researched or have an agenda to suppress it. To me it is an effective litmus test to judge the real intentions of a so called peace activist. There are very powerful forces in the media and government who want to suppress the 9/11 Truth movement and an effective way is to distract via Zimmerman or other 'stories' that well up emotions.
>>>The Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth.org is initiating a $300,000 world wide campaign to raise awareness. AE911Truth is comprised of 2000 professional architects and engineers and over 17000 supporters who prove with the laws of physics that three WTC towers were intentionally demolished. A certain middle eastern country does not want this information known.

issue against the others and call one more worthy than the other. Those of
us organizing around the library are not tunnel-visioned. We can (and do)
give our attention to more than one issue at a time. Your comment suggests
that the library is being challenged to the detriment of the betterment of
other worthy causes. This is not the case. It is not a zero sum game. And it
is for you to suggest that this is a displaced witch hunt trivializes what
is going on at the library and demeans the powerful ripple effect that comes
from movements such as this that encourage citizens to claim their rights
and to realize (despite all they are told) that they can make a difference
in how things go.

But I am guessing you are not interested in this. I admired you on News from
Neptune, but have grown more than weary of your eternally pessimistic and
judgmental armchair commentary on this list. I think you're more than
content to be in this space whether the target of your critique is Obama or
your activist neighbors.

chief magistrate (whom many library protestors voted for) from persecuting
those who publish the truth - Snowden, Manning, Assange, et
