A CHALLENGE TO BILL O'REILLY, ED MORRISSEY, AND SENATOR JIM DeMINT

O'Reilly, Morrissey, and DeMint, three people I hold in the highest of esteem. All three are satisfied that Obama's birth records are in order, that Obama is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN. Since I'm not a trained journalist, I could be missing something here. So I'm wondering if at least one of you could complete the puzzle I have before me:

Below are the birth locations of all the presidents during Obama's life. However, I am unable to verify the most basic of information regarding Obama's birth. For example, his birth location (hospital) and the attending physician's name. Since all of you have investigated this issue and are satisfied with your findings, I'd appreciate it if you could help me complete this post. Thank you.


JFK-35: Born in 1917 at 83 Beals Street, Brookline, Mass. JFK was the first president to be born in the 20th century. After JFK was assassinated, the family repurchased the birth site and turned it into a memorial. Today it's designated as a National Historical Site.

LBJ-36: Born 1908 in rural Stonewall, Texas. While still president, LBJ had his birthplace home reconstructed, relying on old photographs and family memories, in the exact location of the original birthplace home. LBJ is the only president to have done this while in office.

Nixon-37: Born 1913 in rural Yorba Linda, Ca. Nixon's father built the home about one year prior to the former president's birth. Today it's the site of The Richard Nixon Library and Birthplace. In 1994, Nixon was buried at this site.

FORD-38: Born in 1913 at 3202 Woolworth Avenue, Omaha, Nebraska. Many years after his birth, Ford's birthplace home was destroyed in a fire. Today the site is occupied by a memorial garden and presidential birth site marker.

CARTER-39: Born in 1924 at The Wise Sanitarium, 225 Hospital St., Plains, Georgia. Carter is the first president to be born in a hospital. The hospital has since been renamed in honor of his mother: The Lillian G. Carter Nursing Center.

REAGAN-40: Born in 1911 at 111 S. Main Street, Tampico, Illinois. Reagan was born in a small apartment above the Pitney General Store. The general store is now occupied by the First National Bank. Great man, great location. On one of his many blogging travels to historic sites in-and-around Illinois, Marathon Pundit gave us this great report from Tampico, Illinois.

BUSH-41: Born in 1924 at 173 Adams Street, Milton, Mass. Coincidentally, Adams Street is named for John Adams and John Quincy Adams--father and son presidents. Below is the marker that sits at the corner of the Bush property.



CLINTON-42: Born in 1946 at the Julia-Chester Hospital, 1001 (south) Main Street, Hope, Arkansas. The hospital has since been destroyed and I couldn't find a picture of it. In fact, I couldn't find much information at all. Most of Clinton's presidential pages begin with his boyhood home after arriving from the hospital. After an exhaustive search, I found the old hospital's address and did a property site search. The search gave me the above photo. But before posting it, I called the business located at 1001 Main Street to confirm that this is the actual location where the Julia-Chester Hospital once stood. They confirmed that it was, and then I knew why it was so difficult to find the information through Clinton's presidential sites. Bill Clinton is the only president to have a presidential birth site marked with a death site: it's a funeral home. Talk amongst yourselves.

BUSH-43: Born in 1946 at (Grace)Yale-New Haven Hospital, 20 York St., New Haven, Conn. The Bush family lived in New Haven because H.W. was attending Yale University after returning from duty in WWII.

OBAMA-44: Born August 4, 1961, Honolulu, Hawaii.

Please complete this puzzle with *HOSPITAL LOCATION* and/or *ATTENDING PHYSICIAN* information.

Use the comment section or email me with the information. Again, thank you.

BIRTHERS NOW BEING COVERED BY MOST NEWS OUTLETS--updated w/video

It's official: The MSM's coverage of the birther issue is now wall-to-wall. Today, even Bill O'Reilly reported that The Factor had investigated the issue and found it to be "bogus." However, O'Reilly, like all the other MSM reports, up to and including the White House, refuse to disclose any specifics. They all say it's bogus, therefore it must be.

A google alert sent me to a site that holds the record for the most comprehensive birther coverage to date. It's massive. Not far into the report, Andrea Shea-King became the focus:

"The first hint of the WJC's resurrection came last August with a WorldNetDaily commentary by Andrea Shea King..."---Read the entire report.

BIRTHER QUESTIONS TROUBLESOME TO GOP

This morning at Politico, the birther issue is front and center. It seems that asking your congressional reps all these questions regarding Obama's birth certificate has put them in a difficult position. So now they're preparing for any questions you might have while they're (trapped) back home during the congressional break.

"Preparing" doesn't mean they'll be answering your questions; it means they'll be steering the conversation to what they consider to be more important issues. In other words, they don't think you're too smart and they'd like for you to go away.

***The Radio Patriot covers the issue from a local angle.

NOW FOR THE GOOD NEWS

"We are now in the early stages of a depression. The economic indicators we follow to track real economic activity are all signaling a slowdown of massive proportions. You wouldn’t know it reading the mainstream papers of course – they all focus on the relative decline in the slowdown’s intensity."

In short, the Obama-Pelosi-Reid Stimulus package that was passed, sight unseen, is an unmitigated Keynesian disaster: --Read the entire report.

The bad news: Obama's still president.

ANDREA SHEA-KING INTERVIEW--MAJOR STEFAN COOK, ORLY TAITZ AND CALLERS, CALLERS, CALLERS

For the past week or so, the Obama birth certificate issue has experienced a resurgence through blogs, print and now cable tv. The reason: Major Stefan Cook's challenge to Obama. A challenge, I might add, that cost him his private sector job.

Major Cook's motivation for challenging Obama's birth status has been called into question as well. Some say his reason for the action was to get out of going to the war zone, a claim I don't believe whatsoever. So what's next for Major Cook? Think "Joe the Plumber."

Last night, Andrea Shea-King interviewed Major Cook and his attorney, Dr. Orly Taitz. The usual one hour show had to be extended twice, to two hours, and it could have easily gone another 30 minutes too.

The first hour was the Cook-Taitz interview, the second hour was callers from all over the country. The phone lines were lit. Andrea asked Cook the tough questions coming from many of his critics. Taitz filled in the legal aspects of his case as well as where the case goes next.

The extended hour, featuring callers, was as educational as the first. In fact, I thought it was better than the first hour. These were some of the best callers I've ever heard, and informed. Did I mention passionate? Sarge57 owns that category. Most of the callers were very well informed but Andrea did get a call from at least one person who believes Obama is telling the truth. It was classic talk radio. Award winning.

If you want to be better educated about Major Cook and his challenge to Obama, take a listen to Andrea's interview. It's time well worth the investment:

DR. ORLY TAITZ: THE NEW JOE McCARTHY?

John Avlon has written a column about the "birther movement," making mention of Dr. Taitz, Dr. Keyes and Major Cook. In Avlon's world, anyone who questions Obama's birth record is simply nuts, or an Obama hater. That's the impression I get. If you read his column, however, you will notice that he forgets one glaring detail: he never mentions the specific location where Obama was born. What hospital? What doctor? NOTE to Avlon and others like him--please keep writing about this subject. Please.

Below is the list of presidential birthplaces during Obama's life, 1961--2009:

JFK-35: Born in 1917 at 83 Beals Street, Brookline, Mass. JFK was the first president to be born in the 20th century. After JFK was assassinated, the family repurchased the birth site and turned it into a memorial. Today it's designated as a National Historical Site.

Nixon-37: Born in 1913 at Yorba Linda, Ca. Nixon's father built the home about one year prior to the former president's birth. Today it's the site of The Richard Nixon Library and Birthplace. In 1994, Nixon was buried at this site.

FORD-38: Born in 1913 at 3202 Woolworth Avenue, Omaha, Nebraska. Many years after his birth, Ford's birthplace home was destroyed in a fire. Today the site is occupied by a memorial garden and presidential birth site marker.

CARTER-39: Born in 1924 at The Wise Sanitarium, Plains, Georgia. Carter is the first president to be born in a hospital. The hospital has since been renamed in honor of his mother: The Lillian G. Carter Nursing Center.

CNN COVERS BIRTH CERT ISSUE, INTERVIEWS DRS KEYES AND TAITZ

Dr. Alan Keyes and Dr. Orly Taitz appeared on CNN to discuss Obama's birth certificate dilemma/dodge. It appears that the CNN interviewer used up most the time setting up the issue, leaving very little time remaining for the most important part: Keyes' and Taitz' interview. I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation for the poor time management. Attempts to reach Obama for comment were unsuccessful. (article was found via Drudge Report)

PRESIDENTIAL BIRTHPLACES: THE OBAMA YEARS, 1961--2009

In America, the United States of America, there is no one person who is scrutinized as much as the President of the United States. Period. After all, the president is the most important and influential person in our nation. Since the end of WWII, the president has been the most powerful man in the world. Our lives, our futures, the futures of our children and grandchildren depend on this man's decisions, this man's policies. Moreover, billions worldwide depend on this man for their freedoms. Billions. So it goes without saying, a president's life should be chronicled from beginning to end, and then some.

For the record, historians have always dissected presidential lives from before, during, and after their time in the White House. In fact, historians have routinely climbed through presidential family trees, going back generations to report on their family heritage.

The historical documentation of our presidents has its beginnings with our first president, and continuing on through our 43rd. But it seems to have ended with our current and 44th president, Barry Soetoro, AKA Obama. Compared to the previous 43 presidents, there is little that we know for sure about Obama, since, for reasons unknown, he refuses to release his long-form birth certificate. Because of this refusal, the American people have no idea where Obama was born. As a result of Obama's refusal to disclose this most basic of personal information, his NATURAL BORN CITIZENSHIP status has been called into question. This lack of pertinent background information leads one to wonder what else we don't know about this man, Obama.

Currently, the Mainstream Media has little or nothing to say about this issue, and I include Fox News as well because of their ratings. Although Fox has made mention of the issue in recent days, they have failed to go the required journalist distance to include interviews or debates into their reporting. If you thought Bill "Lookin' out for the Folks" O'Reilly would engage this issue on a serious level, you were way wrong. About the only thing you can expect from O'Reilly is "FACTOR PORN." I invented that segment name after viewing Bill's story on topless house cleaners, so credit me when you mention it. Don't forget to stop by O'Reilly's store for Factor Gear. Since all the money goes to charity, Bill can't be all bad.

RADIO TALK SHOW HOSTS AND BLOGGERS:

There are only a few radio talk show hosts and bloggers who have gone the required distance and consistently drilled down on this issue: Michael Savage, G. Gordon Liddy, Andrea Shea-King and Pam Geller, to name a few. For my money, these people are carrying the water on this issue. These are BRAVE people, because going against The One, AKA Obama, often comes at a heavy, personal price. Ask Major Cook about it.

The rest, whether it be mainstream journalists or bloggers who include themselves in the New Media, are simply cowards for not reporting on this story. I'll leave Limbaugh off this list as he's made an attempt to mention the subject, albeit in an offhand way. A mere mention on his show is beyond powerful, and I hope one day he'll be able to fully address the issue. In the meantime, just tune into The Andrea Shea-King Show or read her blog, The Radio Patriot. Just because Andrea was born, politically, on 9-11, doesn't mean she isn't a force to be reckoned with. Trust me, she is.

For your own safety don't get me started on Pam Geller, either. In a debate, Geller will simply tear your throat out. I'm glad she's on our side. Speaking of Geller, why not send a few bucks her way for all the hard work she does--she deserves it. And while you're at it, the BANDWIDTH BEAST over at Lucianne's is constantly looking to be fed. Throw a sawbuck or two her way as well. (Kitty mentioned it was feeding time)

Having said all that, let's get back to those pesky historians.

When chronicling a president's life, all historians begin at the same exact point: the PRESIDENTIAL BIRTHPLACE. Since AKA Obama refuses to disclose or confirm his birth site, allow me to take you down the road of previous presidential birth sites. These aren't just birth sites, they're exact presidential birth sites. Let's begin with the year of Obama's birth and work our way to the present. Enjoy the trip...

AKA Obama was born somewhere on August 4, 1961. Earlier that year JFK took the oath of office as our president. So, let us begin with the exact birthplace of JFK, the 35th president of the United States of America:

JFK-35: Born in 1917 at 83 Beals Street, Brookline, Mass. JFK was the first president to be born in the 20th century. After JFK was assassinated, the family repurchased the birth site and turned it into a memorial. Today it's designated as a National Historical Site.

LBJ-36: Born in 1908, Stonewall, Texas. While still president, LBJ had his birthplace home reconstructed, relying on old photographs and family memories, in the exact location of the original birthplace home. LBJ is the only president to have done this while in office.

Nixon-37: Born in 1913 at Yorba Linda, Ca. Nixon's father built the home about one year prior to the former president's birth. Today it's the site of The Richard Nixon Library and Birthplace. In 1994, Nixon was buried at this site.

FORD-38: Born in 1913 at 3202 Woolworth Avenue, Omaha, Nebraska. Many years after his birth, Ford's birthplace home was destroyed in a fire. Today the site is occupied by a memorial garden and presidential birth site marker.

CARTER-39: Born in 1924 at The Wise Sanitarium, Plains, Georgia. Carter is the first president to be born in a hospital. The hospital has since been renamed in honor of his mother: The Lillian G. Carter Nursing Center.

REAGAN-40: Born in 1911 at 111 S. Main Street, Tampico, Illinois. Reagan was born in a small apartment above the Pitney General Store. The general store is now occupied by the First National Bank. Great man, great location. On one of his many blogging travels to historic sites in-and-around Illinois, Marathon Pundit gave us this great report from Tampico, Illinois.

BUSH-41: Born in 1924 at 173 Adams Street, Milton, Mass. Coincidentally, Adams Street is named for John Adams and John Quincy Adams--father and son presidents. Below is the marker that sits at the corner of the Bush property.



CLINTON-42: Born in 1946 at the Julia-Chester Hospital, 1001 (south) Main Street, Hope, Arkansas. The hospital has since been destroyed and I couldn't find a picture of it. In fact, I couldn't find much information at all. Most of Clinton's presidential pages begin with his boyhood home after arriving from the hospital.

Now, to my knowledge, after confirmation of the previous, Bill Clinton is the only president to have a presidential birth site marked with a death site: it's a funeral home. Talk amongst yourselves.

BUSH-43: Born in 1946 at the Yale-New Haven Hospital, New Haven, Conn. The Bush family lived in New Haven because H.W. was attending Yale University after just returning from duty in WWII.

OBAMA-44: Born in 1961. As of this posting, no location of Obama's birth has been confirmed due to his refusal to release his long-form birth certificate. Until he releases this document, I will leave the above photo in place. After all, we know he was born; we just don't know where.

OTHER BIRTH SITES: THE BOYS OF MOUNT RUSHMORE:

George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Teddy Roosevelt, Abe Lincoln.

Finally, I would like to thank Dr. Orly Taitz for all her hard work and dedication to this effort. PLEASE DONATE A FEW BUCKS AT HER BLOG SITE. In addition to attorney Orly Taitz, I'd like to thank Joseph Farah and his staff at World Net Daily for being the only news outlet to aggressively follow the Obama birth certificate story.

TWA 800 AND SONIA SOTOMAYER

I have always had a bad feeling about the crash of TWA flight 800. Something just wasn't right. Jack Cashill has investigated this crash more than any other human being, and I think his conclusions have merit. In this article, he brings Sotomayor into the mix. Interesting, to say the least.

SARAH PALIN'S NEXT MOVE

After Palin resigns as Governor of Alaska, she will be attending an event in southern California. From the Sacramento Bee:

Republican Women Federated of Simi Valley said in a statement that Palin is scheduled to appear at the group's 50th anniversary gala at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library on Aug. 8.

Group spokeswoman
Pat Saraceno said the invitation-only event is closed to the media. Several hundred people are expected. The master of ceremonies for the event will be conservative radio talk-show host and filmmaker John Ziegler.

If only I knew someone connected with powerful republicans in SoCal, I'd be on the phone finding out who's going to be attending this "invitation only" gala...

THE "GRAND ACQUISITOR"

The only use I have for the New York Times is the obit page. Seriously. Whether the people listed there are famous, not-so-famous, infamous or otherwise, most times it's a history lesson.

The man I read about today lived a long and successful life. I'm sure he was famous in the corporate world, but in general I don't think he was known to that many. His life, however, is worth reading about. While reading his obit, I found that we had a couple things in common. Nothing important.

First, he attended school at the University of Illinois at Urbana, my birthplace. Second, we had the same hero: General George S. Patton, Jr. Now, my knowledge of Patton comes from history books, documentaries and movies. In the Patton department, this man had a slight edge on me: He fought under Patton's command for four-and-a-half years, up to and including The Battle of the Bulge. The military was just a small slice of his life, though. His story is really about America and the vast opportunities she provides us. I hope she still does.

This man was born at the front end of the 20th century, starting out in life with nothing. And he might well have come to the end of his life with just that, nothing, had his sister not changed her mind one day early in his life. Life's funny that way. Instead he left his mark on American industry.

One more thing. Because of investments in his corporation, I have a feeling there are many who enjoy a richer retirement today. Just a feeling.

Read about the man here.
