Obama Citizenship

Controversy! Eligibility, NY 23, Global Warming, Oh My!

By Phil

Phil Wolf, owner of Wolf Interstate Leasing in Wheat Ridge, Colorado, is stirring up quite a bit of controversy over the following billboard he put up appearing to suggest that Mr. Obama is a closet Muslim, tying the alleged belief to his actions regarding the recent Fort Hood terrorist attack, and questioning the President’s eligibility:

Also, regarding those November 6, 2009 resignations… Mr. Bob Bauer, of Perkins Coie fame:

During the 2008 presidential campaign, Obama, who has never made his original birth certificate available for public scrutiny, hired Perkins Coie to defend him in court cases challenging his status as a ?natural born? U.S. citizen ? a status upon which Obama?s eligibility to hold the office of President is contingent. According to Federal Election Commission records, OFA has alreadypaid Perkins Coie $1,352,378.95 for its legal services in these cases.

…will now be the White House Chief Counsel. As FrontPageMag goes on (from their lengthy article):

A highly placed Washington attorney (who has served as counsel in the Senate and in previous presidential administrations) characterizes Bauer?s sudden appointment as ?pretty damn weird.? ?I?m surprised not only that the press seems to be ignoring the fact that two presidential lawyers have left at about the same time,? adds the attorney, ?but that no one seems to care that for the first time, I think ever, we have a President?s personal attorney also serving as White House counsel. I don?t care if Bob [Bauer] recuses himself from future personal legal business, this should be troubling to anyone who cares about the Executive Office of the President.?

Ultimately, Anita Dunn?s affinity for Chairman Mao may prove to be far less significant than her husband?s unrivaled familiarity with the skeletons in President Obama?s closet.

Yes, that would also include whatever possible dirt (h/t TheJollyRogers) they can dig up on She Who Would Be President ™:

Perkins Coie is the group responsible for boosting the intensity of one of the most persistent ethics attacks against former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.

In an e-mail dated July 14, 2009 Kim Chatman, filed an ethics complaint against Sarah Palin, making the allegation that the governor established a trust fund for the purpose of soliciting donations from members of the public. The original report on this complaint was published in the Anchorage Daily News. Chatman was a co-plaintiff in a federal lawsuit against Palin and filed a complaint regarding Palin?s use of per-diem monies. In all, Chatman leveled

The Alaska Personnel Board asked Perkins Coie to review the complaint. Their nine- page report to the Alaska Personnel Board found essentially nothing, but combined with the pressure of 17 other complaints against the Governor and former candidate for Vice President, may have contributed to her finally leaving office. This complaint was number 13 in that long list.

And did you know that Pastor Dr. James David Manning of Harlem, New York, says that he could potentially be arrested based on the verbiage he’s using “against” the President (h/t SiouxFallsConservativeExaminer)?

Concerning the New York Congressional District 23 House race still being counted, The Gouverneur Times reports that a computer virus could seriously call the results into question:

GOUVERNEUR, NY -- The computerized voting machines used by many voters in the 23rd district had a computer virus -- tainting the results, not just from those machines known to have been infected, but casting doubt on the accuracy of counts retrieved from any of the machines.

There is significantly more at the link, and John Charlton’s The Post & Email performs a run-down of his interpretation regarding the story, including the following tid-bit:

The manufacturer of the machines, Dominion/Sequoia Voting Systems is the same company that Dan Rather accused of causing over 50,000 votes to go uncounted in the 2000 Presidential Election in Florida due to intentional oversight.  Rather’s report claimed that Sequoia was well aware of the issues but proceeded into the election utilizing an inferior product and told election workers and technicians to “ignore the problems.

New York election officials are in a corner.  While there is significant evidence of malfunction with the new voting machines that were in use in the 23rd District and the accuracy of the recorded votes, the State had no choice but to use them.  A Federal Court order demanded that New York have the machines in place and use them or be found in violation of the Help America Vote Act of 2002 which requires that all polling locations have handicapped-accessible voting machines with a variety of options available so that anyone may use the machine to vote.

A separate story by the online newspaper further reports that the “Voting Machines Used Were Not Certified:”

GOUVERNEUR, NY -- The Dominion ImageCast voting machines used in this year’s Nov. 3rd election, both in the 23rd Congressional Special Election and in the local elections around the state have not been certified for use by the State Board of Elections.

Reports of bugs in the programming code, known security flaws, outright failures, and concerns over the potential for tampering have not prevented the State from calling the pilot program “very successful.” …

Computerized voting machines were not used in the City of New York this election as the Board of Elections there refused to use machines that had not been certified by the State.

More than 20 counties in the State have passed resolutions banning the computerized vote-scanning machines.

Is global warming really not an issue after all? HotAir reports that after an email account of high-profile (in the industry) individuals had been hacked, there were apparently a number of embarrassing admissions made. What’s more, as AtlasShrugs reports, the founder of The Weather Channel and “30,000″ other scientists are looking at suing Al Gore on the issue:
