Of course it was, our politician's don't realize that a corporate executive will lie and do almost anything to get their way.
Obama - What is your opinion so far on his Presidency

Yes indeed, I now have stock in the Auto Industry. Hmmmm... think I'll see a dividend check soon?
For once, I'd like to see Republicans remain consistent in the application of their so called principles --- hee, hee - likelier to see a snowball last an eternity in hell.
VERY QUIETLY OBAMA'S CITIZENSHIP CASE REACHES THE SUPREME COURT
AP- WASHINGTON D.C. April 19, 2011-
In a move certain to fuel the debate over Obama's qualifications for the presidency, the group "Americans for Freedom of Information" has Released copies of President Obama's college transcripts from Occidental College ... Released today, the transcript school indicates that Obama, under the name Barry Soetoro, received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia as an undergraduate. The transcript was released by Occidental College in compliance with a court order in a suit brought by the group in the Superior Court of California. The transcript shows that Obama (Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was awarded a fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Foundation Scholarship program. To qualify, for the scholarship, a student must claim foreign citizenship.
This document would seem to provide the smoking gun that many of Obama's detractors have been seeking Along with the evidence that he was first born in Kenya and there is no record of him ever applying for US citizenship, this is looking pretty grim. The news has created a firestorm at the White House as the release casts increasing doubt about Obama's legitimacy and qualification to serve as President article titled, "Obama Eligibility Questioned," leading some to speculate that the story may overshadow economic issues on Obama's first official visit to the U.K. In a related matter, under growing pressure from several groups, Justice Antonin Scalia announced that the Supreme Court agreed on Tuesday to hear arguments concerning Obama's legal eligibility to serve as President in a case brought by Leo Donofrio of New Jersey . This lawsuit claims Obama's dual citizenship disqualified him from serving as president.. Donofrio's case is just one of 18 suits brought by citizens demanding proof of Obama's citizenship or qualification to serve as president.
Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation has released the results of their investigation of Obama's campaign spending. This study estimates that Obama has spent upwards of $950,000 in campaign funds in the past year with eleven law firms in 12 states for legal resources to block disclosure of any of his personal records. Mr. Kreep indicated that the investigation is still ongoing but that the final report will be provided to the U.S. Attorney general, Eric Holder. Mr. Holder has refused to comment on the matter...
LET OTHER FOLKS KNOW THIS NEWS, THE MEDIA WON'T !
Subject: RE: Issue of Passport?
While I've little interest in getting in the middle of the Obama birth issue, Paul Hollrah over at FSM did so yesterday and believes the issue can be resolved by Obama answering one simple question: What passport did he use when he was shuttling between New York , Jakarta , and Karachi ?
So how did a young man who arrived in New York in early June 1981, without the price of a hotel room in his pocket, suddenly come up with the price of a round-the-world trip just a month later?
And once he was on a plane, shuttling between New York , Jakarta , and Karachi , what passport was he offering when he passed through Customs and Immigration?
The American people not only deserve to have answers to these questions, they must have answers. It makes the debate over Obama's citizenship a rather short and simple one.
Q: Did he travel to Pakistan in 1981, at age 20?
A : Yes, by his own admission.
Q: What passport did he travel under?
A: There are only three possibilities.
1) He traveled with a U.S. ... Passport,
2) He traveled with a British passport, or
3) He traveled with an Indonesia passport.
Q: Is it possible that Obama traveled with a U.S. Passport in 1981?
A: No. It is not possible. Pakistan was on the U.S. .. State Department's "no travel" list in 1981.
Conclusion: When Obama went to Pakistan in 1981 he was traveling either with a British passport or an Indonesian passport.
If he were traveling with a British passport that would provide proof that he was born in Kenya on August 4, 1961, not in Hawaii as he claims.. And if he were traveling with an Indonesian passport that would tend to prove that he relinquished whatever previous citizenship he held, British or American, prior to being adopted by his Indonesian step-father in 1967.
Whatever the truth of the matter, the American people need to know how he managed to become a "natural born" American citizen between 1981 and 2008.

Just as bad, but not as good. With the Politician you know your being screwed.
Here's further proof that Republicans are never consistent in their so called principles - right wing extremist Governor Perry of Texas who condemned President Obama as a socialist for his policies now goes hat in hand for help to relieve all the problems his state faces:
Bay Area Houston: Texas Governor asks for federal welfare
Texas Governor asks for federal welfare
Governor Rick Perry will have to put aside his hatred for Obama and the federal government, at least for a while. From CNN:
This would be a perfect time for the President to tell Perry to pick his state up by his conservative bootstraps or to just piss off. (my vote is for piss off) Rick Perry is a typical republican. They bitch and moan about the government until they need the help of the government. I see it everyday at work. So called "conservatives" yelling and screaming about tax cuts then being the first in line to cash their government paychecks.
Republicans aren't really against welfare, just as long as it is their welfare. If Obama was as mean spirited as Rick Perry is, he would wait for a few weeks before responding and let Perry grovel a bit. Lucky for Rick, Obama's not a dick.
See?

Governor Rick Perry will have to put aside his hatred for Obama and the federal government, at least for a while. From CNN:
Authorities have responded to 7,807 fires across more than 1.5 million acres since this year's wildfire season began, Gov. Rick Perry wrote in a letter late Saturday to President Barack Obama requesting that the federal government declare Texas a disaster area.

See?
The truth is that Pakistan is and was on the US State Department travel warning list. This meant, and means today, that non-essential travel is highly discouraged. (See the following State Department link; http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/tw/tw_930.html.) Simple logic would conclude that he would not have required a foreign passport, but could have traveled on his US passport. There were other Americans who traveled in Pakistan (at least one journalist) at that time as well, so Obama wasn't alone. Although it is recommended to register with the embassy beforehand or immediately upon arrival, it is not a requirement now or in 1981.
Oh brother. So having the President declare a Disaster Area is now considered "welfare" by the whacko demo libs?
THAT is what tax money should be used for, not fat azzed welfare folks who are too fat to fit through a door to get their fat azzed free money, free food welfare checks.
Obama better declare that area a disaster area. He already screwed up Lousiana and Georgia during the oil spill.
Maybe if your hero Perry and his fellow Republicans cut taxes for the rich in his state he would have enough money to pay for the mess and wouldn't have to depend on Federal dollars to bail him out.
Obama - What is your opinion so far on his Presidency
One word SU*KS
Obama and Canada trying to sell GM to China??????
By now, you've no doubt heard the news: General Motors' Chinese partner, Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (SAIC) will take a controlling stake in GM by purchasing the equity sold to the U.S. and Canadian governments during the bailout. But what does it mean for the future of GM?

I don't even know Perry.
That is what Federal Funds are supposed to be used for. It shouldn't be given to do nothing welfare hacks, and used to fund Cowboy Poetry Festivals like the Dems want our money to be used for.
Would that be comparable to supporting NASCAR and cutting funding for Homeless vets?
Well cutting funding for Homeless Vets or any worthwhile program is garbage. And if the government is funding NASCAR in any way THAT should be cut as well.
There is so much pork and stupid crap that gets free money and those programs and grants should be absolutely cut and scrapped.
''That is what Federal Funds are supposed to be used for''
The Federal government has no business bailing out Texas or its problems. The vast majority of TexASS fires are preventable:
Texas Forest Service warns about wildfire threat caused by underfunding
It's time for those right wing traitors to pay for solving their own problems rather than to shift the problem to Federal taxpayers like they do all the time.

This quote was translated into English from an article appearing in the Czech Republic as published in the Prager Zeitung of 28 April 2010.
“The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president."
"The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.
"The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool.
"It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.”

Republicans wanted Nascar Funding - It was buried deep but it like other pork rises to the surface.
Well if they did I am glad it came to the surface and hopefully it was squashed. All pork should be.
What I suggest is how the right wing Traitors be brought to justice
Execution
We send all the left wing,gun hating idiots out after those right wing gun loving idiots.
Seems like a good idea? Gopher I suggest you lead the hunt.
Problems run deep with earmarks - The Osprey - a waste of money - The Pentagon lifted the requirement that it have the ability to auto-rotate from the specs -
Now we know a chopper - if we can use that term - needs that ability - we all know what happens if they do not.
But the Osprey was spread across so many States it was impossible to kill - Rumsfeld tried 3 times.
Next Aircraft Carriers - The US is planning on putting more of these out - The Chinese are investing in missiles to kill them - 10 mil a copy - Guess what wins in the long term - meaning next 20 years as new teck comes on line. The missiles.
Should be investing in the next unmanned drones - capable of high speed - stealth - and lower cost then the new jets coming on line
The present aircraft in the US Air force beat anything in the world hands down.
Upgrade those - spend the money from the stealth jets on the next generation of aircraft - unmanned - stealth - armed to the teeth.
