    I don't like Gaddafi, but what did his grandchildren do to deserve death or even to have their murders glossed over with excuses made up on the spot?

    Not a damn thing. But I also have to wonder, what did all those women in Misrata do to deserve being raped at Gaddafi's orders? Not justifying it. Hell, I don't think we should even be in there, but ya know what, I suspect there are a lot of women in Libya who don't give a damn about Gaddafi's grandkids being killed.

    Wait, volunteers are helping clear the damage in the South? Don't they understand that thats the governments job? From birth to death, the government is supposed to wipe our butt and change our diapers. These people who think its ok to help out, are forgetting their place. They're usurping the role of the federal government. They should definitely be arrested.

    So, Sony might have just encrypted the data after the plain data was hacked to save their face in front of media.

    I think it more likely they encrypted the credit card data, but other data stolen was not encrypted.

    There is no logistic or military advantage for the US with this base it is purely down to a money making exercise.

    Actually, the reverse is true. It costs the US money to keep the base there, while saving the Japanese money that they would have to spend if the US wasn't there. Speaking as a US taxpayer, I'd prefer if the US military left. Japan though would rather they stay.

    I have a hard time believing that 2 billion people watched the wedding. I know I didn't bother. I know a couple people where I worked watched, but most are too busy and can't be bothered. But maybe thats just where I work. Maybe other places people watched the wedding, or at least the coverage after the fact.

    According to my personal religious beliefs, I cannot put one race ahead of another but I can see when others do it. As I stated, I met them. I talked with them. They were very scary people to me. It's one of the reasons I left Kentucky. I didn't want my children exposed to that.

    I lived in South Carolina for a couple years, I know what you mean about racists. I've met em, sat at dinner with people, who looked completely normal, and you'd never guess until they started talking about blacks, that they would have fit right in with a white robe and mask. Made my skin crawl, made me wonder how these otherwise decent people could be so filled with hate towards others, not because of what they might have done, but because of the color of their skin.

    When I look at Obama, I see a man that I hope has a new job in 2 years. Not because he's black, but because he's incompetent and because I disagree with his politics. I don't go around trying to dismiss all the arguments for or against him because of the color of his skin. And it bothers me that people somehow believe that a tiny minority is somehow largely representative of America. When millions of people turned out to protest the financial policies of the Dems, I remember you dismissing them as racists. Not because you had any evidence to support these allegations, but simply because they disagreed with Obama.

    It has been so many years now and so much money spent to prevent anyone from simply seeing his birth certificate that I dont believe it is real. It is fake.

    Sorry, but that is frankly nuts.

    There was no reason he had to fight so hard and spend so much money to keep it concealed unless there was something he had to hide. A birth certificate is not overly personal. Theres no reason he could not have shown it from day one.

    This I agree with. There was no reason to hide this. I really don't understand why he didn't simply release this 3 years ago. However now that he has, its dead. Its a non issue. Only the real hardcore nuts are going to agree with you. If you insist on pushing this forgery idea, you're going to join the 'Truthers' on the left as the eternal conspiracy theorists. As Obama himself said, there are lots more pressing issues to deal with. Time to move on.

    How does this even apply?? Seriously? A DUI is not the same as a birth certificate which he already had to show to even get in the White House. You people deliberately keep missing the point. He WAS upfront about it. He didn't LIE about it not existing. I can't believe you're comparing the two.

    And for 3 years, he refused to release it. He hid it. Why. This form has existed for this entire time. Why didn't he just release it 3 years ago? What was he so desperately trying to hide, and why? Once he releases it, it becomes a non-issue.

    And you also still don't know what racism is, do you want me to send you a link to a dictionary definition? Everyone knows why it's an "issue" of race, please spare me the holier-than-thou attitude. Maybe you claim not to think it's about race, but the crazies on the right have already shown time and time again what this is really about.

    Let me explain this to you so even someone such as yourself can understand. If you bring out the race card without rock solid evidence to back you up, what you are in fact saying, is that its a race issue. If you have evidence to back up your claims, if people are as you so desperately claim, doing this only because BHO is black, then by all means, where is it? If you have no evidence, then either shut up, or admit you are in fact yourself racist. Because to you, race is the issue.

    This kind of crap really bothers me. This idea that if people dislike Obama, it must be because of his skin color. Do you somehow not understand that we may dislike someone because our politics differ, or because the mans incompetent? Or perhaps because we just don't like the way he dresses? People hated Bush for all these reasons and more, and yet they were never called racist for it. Why? Do you believe skin color means he should get a pass? I sure as hell don't, and if you do, then you are in fact what I have come out and stated. A racist. Your insistence that this is about the color of Obamas skin speaks to what you are, and what you stand for.

    "W" came out and did state that he did have a DUI, he manned up to his mistakes. But the issue I see with this release is that Obama couldn't do it up front. If there was nothing wrong with it, he should have just said so. Trying to play politics with your own "truth" says a lot about a person. That they are not really that honest, and will do anything to get ahead and get the edge over an opponent.

    Exactly.

    I agree with the President. Now that we know he is a US citizen, what is he going to do about $5/gal gas.

    Apparently, it has to do with Oprah.

    Has any other president ever been asked to produce a birth certificate?

    He's not the first to have this issue. Chester A. Arthur had the same problems. So obviously did John McCain.

    Molenir -- You're not getting it. HE MET ALL THE REQUIREMENTS. You really think someone wasn't checking this while he was running for president? Really?

    So then why not release it? Why make a big deal out of keeping it? Is it really that big a deal to go down and get your birth certificate? I have mine. Not a matter of whether people were checking up on it. This became an issue because of him.

    And I don't think you know what racism means. You should look it up.

    When you make something an issue of race, it says something about you.

    Let's just hope this stupid fixation with President Obama's birth is over with now. He should have released it much earlier just to get rid of this silly conspiracy. Obama is an American - it's just his way of thinking that isn't.

    I agree. By the way, now that the birth certificate issue is dealt with the nuts on the right will probably move on to the ridiculous idea that Obama is a Muslim. Have you heard about that one? As if a man would sit in a Christian church for 20 years and be anything else.

    Why should he have had to?

    Is this a serious question? If so, I'll go ahead and answer it. One of the qualifications for President, written in the constitution, is that you must be a natural born citizen of the United States. That means, you must have been born in the US. There are some who like to claim that it also should mean, that both your parents should be citizens, but thats not how the law has been interpreted so its a non issue. So, the reason he should have released this back when he was a candidate, has to do with qualification. Does he meet all the qualifications to be President. If he had released this information years ago, it would have never become an issue. Indeed, it never should have been.

    People can deny it all they want, but if he looked white, no one would be calling this into question. No one.

    And by saying this, by bringing skin color into this issue, you are essentially saying you are in fact a racist. And by the way, you're wrong as well. McCain also had to answer these questions back when he was a candidate, because he was born in Panama. Hes about as white as they come.

    You sound like the socialist system in China.

    I sound like the socialist system in china because I want candidates to have to reveal basic stuff about themselves before they run for office? How you figure that? Wheres the comparison?

    Trump = 1 Obama = 0

    Lambasting claims to the contrary, Obama said in a nationally televised statement from the White House that, “We do not have time for this kind of silliness.”

    lol, He then ran off to tape a show with Oprah.

    hehe this isn't going to end controversy. When you're dealing with unreasonable idiots like "birthers" they aren't driven by logic.

    You are actually wrong, at the same time you're right. The 'birthers' really are a bit like the 'truthers' on the left. Both sides have their wingnuts, and you're right, they aren't going to go away simply because Obama finally got around to releasing this information. However the sheer fact that Obama refused to release this, for years, is what gave this story legs, and took this out of the realm of stupidity, and made it a real issue. And it is going to hurt Obama. The fact that he refused to release these records back when he was asked as then candidate Obama, makes it seem like he has something to hide. Like GWB and the DUI arrest. It not going to hurt him with Dems or Republicans though, but rather with Independents who are going to look at this and see that Obama, despite having finally, finally gotten around to releasing this, isn't an upfront guy. And that he has things he would like to hide.

    Speaking for myself here, I'd like it if a 'birther' bill was passed in every single state in the union. Not just for President, but for every candidate. From Senator, to Rep, to Governor, to hell dogcatcher. They should all have to release some basic information, if they want to run for public office. Stuff like tax forms, school performance, arrest record if any, birth certificate etc. These should be standard for every candidate, if only so that we citizens can see, is he straight with the government, did he break the law, was he doing drugs. So we can see the guy and make a more informed choice as to whether or not we can trust him to represent us. I'm actually rather disappointed that no state has a law to verify the credentials of a candidate, and make sure they are eligible to run for office. Its an oversight that really should be addressed.

    Why did he need to produce? If he were white,he wouldn't have needed to. If you are against him like above,you will move on to the next petty issue.

    Ah, another racist on the board. You disgust me.

    It's reported that people are demanding that Obama release his actual BIRTH CERTIFICATE and the alledgedly transparent Obama still refuses to produce his actual BIRTH CERTIFICATE. Personally, I'm willing to take the word of the head of Hawaiian medical department that Obama was born in Hawaii but still wonder why Obama is hiding his BIRTH CERTIFICATE from public view.

    See, thats the thing. What is he afraid of? Why is he hiding this? I mean apart from a few historians, most people are only going to care that he actually did release the information, that he is transparent as he said he was going to be. In my opinion, anyone who runs for office should be required to release this kind of stuff. 10 years worth of tax information, birth certificate, criminal record if any, etc, etc, etc. All this stuff should be released when you're a candidate, much less the actual President of the United States. And not just candidate for Potus, but Senators and Reps, even on the state level. Not releasing this info makes it seem like you have something to hide. Like Bush and his arrest for DUI.

    This study doesn't really surprise me, as I have had this happen to me. I remember seeing this absolutely gorgeous woman, so beautiful it felt like my heart stopped for a moment, and my brain turned off, if only for a moment. Then everything re-engaged, but even still, I felt like I wasn't operating at full mental capacity for a few moments.

    viking68: It's Sony's fault, no one elses, they made the "security" system, if they didn't lock it well enough someone was bound to get in... it is no ones fault except sony for not spending enough money on engineering something good.

    Let us suppose, that I have a bank, and that it has a vault door. Someone comes in, and blows that door down. Is it my fault I didn't have a bigger door installed, or is it the person with the dynamites fault? The simple fact of the matter is, that Sony had security, that security was not good enough. They are improving it, but they are also not to blame for this. Those who cracked their security are, just as those who crack a bank are.

    Well, the long form birth certificate was picked up in Hawaii and delivered in person by the white house counsel, so what other lame theories are birthers going to latch onto? Are actual policy proposals like privatizing Medicare or raising Warren Buffet's taxes not debate-worthy enough?

    Hmm, your silliness aside, I still wonder, why the heck did it take him so long to release it? Why didn't he release this 3 years ago when he was first asked about it? Honestly, once he releases his birth certificate, it becomes a non issue. Some people might claim its a forgery, but who really cares.

    Back on Ron Paul now. I like the guy. He has been preaching fiscal restraint for a long time now. Back when it was Republicans over spending. Some of his other issues are questionable, but at least on fiscal policy, he makes some sense.

    Rising food prices are hardly a concern considering the massive weight gain of Americans. People eat too much to begin with. I have friends in the US now, and all they can talk about is the insane food portions.

    Thank you. Is there anything else you feel the government should mandate? Maybe our population is out of control, we should have less fat in our foods, perhaps transplants are too expensive so they shouldn't be permitted? Perhaps the government should just send people who don't agree with it to forced labor camps. What fits your vision of what our society should be under your marxist philosophy?

    Here in America we believe in freedom. To do the things you don't like, as well as the things that are bad for you. Its far better then the nanny state idea where everything is strictly controlled. People take responsibility for their own actions, and rise or fall based upon their choices.
