#1 Tread carefully on this one. There is fire behind this smoke, but I suspect what they are hoping for is to get the media to pounce on an aspect of the story that is untrue, and then trumpet that all of it is untrue.

It may also be that what they are doing is attempting to break this before the nomination. They desperately wanted the Republicans to do it, but they didn't bite so now the Dem's had to do it themselves. It may be that they want to have it come out before the convention so they can say it is "old news" after the convention.

Or it could be Hillary sticking in the knife. The stuff they are coming up with is very damaging stuff and it will be hard for people to just "move on" when they hear the whole story.

#2 This is either the death blow by Hillary, or it is a move to take if off the table before the general election.
It could backfire either way. If it is Hillary behind it and Obama is taken out this way, the dhimocrats that supported him and a lot of middle road supporters (support the D in a election) are going to be jaded and pissed off and may not even come out on election day.
If it is a move to remove the issue for the R party, then it could be smothered with legal paperwork, put in limbo then dismissed after the election.
Interesting times.

#3 I guess the biggest unanswered question at this point is: did Hillary get the VP slot? If the answer is no - then this is going to be one bloody, brass knuckle, cage match that will make Michale Vick's dogfights look like puppy play.

haha

#4 Coming from ANYONE but Phillip Berg, well maybe.

A message from Phil Berg:
A call to unity - 911 for the truth!
"It is time for a non-violent revolution by the millions of Americans who are tired of their rights being diminished
by the Bush Administration; tired of the lies of the Bush Administration; tired of the lies about Iraq; and tired and disgusted with the lies about 911. NOW is the time to stand tall together and bring back our freedoms as they
stood under the Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights and the Constitution of the United States. It is time to unite - hand in hand and shoulder to shoulder."

#6 Note the timing. This came just days after Hillary's name was allowed on the floor vote.

And to all those who said this would never be an issue -- told you so.

#7 All this penny ante legal sniping distracts us from The Real Question: Is Obama the anti-Christ?

#8 This is crap. Barack Obama was born in the USA and is a natural born American citizen.

See this report in FactCheck.org.
