4. OK, I will try to sum up and tie together for you what I was able to glean from listening to it.

The tea billys have somehow managed to locate a person in Hawaii who was born on the same date as President Obama. This person is now deceased. However, the number on their birth certificate is allegedly 1000+ numbers higher than the number on the birth certificate of President Obama. Arizona DA, Arpinor wants to get a copy of the deceased person's birth certificate to present as evidence of the falsehood of the birth certificate that was presented by the White House as being Obama's. So he "deputized" some turkey and supposedly came up with a bunch of money that came from private donors, and he is using that money to send his turkey to Hawaii to try and get a copy of this deceased person's birth certificate to present as "evidence" in a legal challenge.

The first time "Deputy Turkey" flew to Hawaii, the media flew along with him, and because of that, he says that he wasn't able to make any progress at the Department of Records. However, the second time he flew over (which was just recently) he flew stealth, with no media. However this time he still came up with nothing for his efforts. It seems that this time, his objective was to surprise (interview) an elderly resident at a nursing home who was employed in the Dept of Records at the time both of the birth certificates were supposedly issued.

Apparently, the elderly resident said that she had no interest in being interviewed by said Deputy Turkey, and she then referred him back to the Dept of Records. So Deputy Stealth Turkey flew back to Az. with nothing to show for his efforts. But in order to "stir up the pot", The Tea Party Hour radio show (at least I'm assuming it is a radio show) called him in for an interview to "report on his trip". During the interview, after talking about what he experienced, he asserted his thesis that the fact that he is being thwarted and is having no success with his efforts is all the proof that is necessary to show that the Obama birth certificate has to be a fake.

OK, that took up the first part of The Tea Party Hour. For the second part, the host of the show talked about how he has been trying to work with his representative in Congress (who was elected by good Tea Party votes) to present proposed legislation to John Boner to get him to temporarily postpone his dedicated efforts to create abortion legislation, and open up a formal inquiry on the Obama birth certificate issue. But, he was chagrin to say that his representative shined him on and would not entertain his request seriously. Then he exclaimed that upon further investigation on the part of himself, he learned that John Boner had already put out an edict that there would be no more wasting of abortion legislation time by the diversion of inquiries into the Obama birth certificate scam. After that, I had to pee really badly (heart meds) and so I left my CRT screen with no one to stare blankly into it.

That is the most that I was able to glean from listening to this. I hope that my interpretation of it was accurate and further more, I hope that it will enable you to "quench your thirst" in this mater. This is the least I can do for you as a means of thanking you for all of your efforts to provide information and links to news sources for us on all of the topics that we discuss here at The DU.

If someone else has a different interpretation of what was said in the Tea Party Hour, please do correct me.

I am not surprised that Boehner wants no part of it.

The former Republican Governor of Hawaii, Linda Lingle, came a couple of years ago and confirmed that President Obama was born in Hawaii.

So, I think that any of the Republicans that have at least a little sense won't be listening to the birth nonsense, especially after President Obama released his long form document.

And after Obama demolished Trump at the 2011 Correspondence Dinner I'm sure that no one wants Obama to go after them

That the President's Mother was a US Citzen so no matter where she birthed him he has citzenship by his birthright
according to the law
Children born overseas out of wedlock

There is an asymmetry in the way citizenship status of children born overseas to unmarried parents, only one of whom is a U.S. citizen, is handled.

Title 8 U.S.C. § 1409 paragraph (c) provides that children born abroad after December 24, 1952 to unmarried American mothers are U.S. citizens, as long as the mother has lived in the U.S. for a continuous period of at least one year at any time prior to the birth.

15. What the birthers are questioning is the "Natural Born" citizen part.

'They' say that the way they read the U.S. Constitution that 'both' parents must be citizens in order for a baby to be a "Natural Born Citizen".

That is the legal point that they have been bring law suits in front of the courts on.

I'm lousy at summing stuff up, and the video is rather boring, but funny in spots.
(Funny as in "Are these guys really stupid!" funny.)

No, even the Orangeman has told these nutcases they have nothing, so...

"They're in on the Conspiracy!" *yibble yibble yibble* (Sound made while drumming the lips)

No, these people will always be with us, just look how almost 50 years after Oswald shot JFK the conspiracy theorists still think Oliver Stone's "JFK" is a documentary.

Don't forget the Roswell loons, one group still insists the "Alien Autopsy" film was real.

Even Abraham Lincoln assassination conspiracists still exist.

we know that at least 882 people have seen this. I'll bet that DOUBLED the viewership before it was posted here. I got a good laugh at the host's bitch that his freshman Tea-Bag congressdolt wasn't performing (in congress) as he'd promised. LOL! What the hell'd he expect - some dweeb who probably can't find his office without a map, is gonna go in and shake the dome? Dumb!
