Supreme Court Refuses To Hear Obama Birth Certificate Challenge

[Lawlbringer]

4. Oh, for the love of Cheese

The right are still trying to make their own version of the Bush/Gore controversy, and while we've been saying that Bush didn't even win the election (he didn't win), they've been trying to invalidate the Democratic President's term. And the fact that he's not white is probably particularly galling.

Thing is, just because he's of African descent doesn't mean he's FROM AFRICA. While some of the birther arguments are rather compelling, the fact remains that he's an American born citizen. The interpretation of Natural-Born is really ridiculous, and I wish the SCOTUS would actually hear it to put it to freaking sleep forever. I'm in the same EXACT situation as the President. My father came from Egypt, and my mother is as white American as a slice of Kraft cheese. I'm an American citizen, I was born and raise in Brooklyn. If my father or President Obama's father came from, say, France and happened to be white men, would the GOP have such a huge freaking problem?

Short answer?

Most assuredly, no.
