One More Time: Who IS This Man? (Open Thread)

800px-ObamaPuppet - Copy

Nearly three years have passed since this post was written, asking WHO the president known as Obama truly is.  We’re still waiting for an answer to that question:

We the People have been asking this question, “Who is this man?”  Today we are no closer to the answer than before.  In fact, we become more confused by the day.

Is his name Barack Hussein Obama II, as contended in two books arguably written by him and mentioned on a specious COLB presented to a gullible lamestream media on partisan blogs and campaign websites?  Or is his name Barack Obama Jr., as he was called in the infamous FactCheck blog defense of his British/Kenyan citizenship? Or is his name Barry Obama, as (it is claimed) he was known in school in Hawaii?   Or is his name Barry Soetoro, as school registration forms from Indonesia seem to indicate?  Or is his name Soebarkah, as his mother’s passport records seem to indicate?  (A one word name, in keeping with Indonesian tradition, because he was adopted by his stepfather.) Or is his name Barry Dunham, Steve Dunham, or the latest:  Barrack Houssein Obama II, as indicated on records from a U.S. MILITARY Court-Martial of patriotic American, LTC Lakin, who himself put his life and freedom on the line in a quest to learn the answer to this question:   WHO IS THIS MAN?

Now comes word from Police Chief Mark Kessler that Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s Cold Case Posse (CCP) has “indisputable” evidence that Obama is not who he pretends to be:

This Barry…he’s not an American, I can tell you that right now. The information that I was given, he’s not an American. He’s not even Kenyan and I’m tellin’ you that when you find out what he is, your blood is gonna boil. The American people are gonna go absolutely crazy if Congress doesn’t do something about this cause he’s not Kenyan and he’s not American.There’s no record of him prior to the age of five anywhere in this country. Nowhere. The people that…that they say are his parents, guess what? They’re not his real parents. They’re not. I’ve seen the evidence. … 

Obama has many aliases; but the CCP learned that using aliases is not illegal, although Obama did not reveal his alternate names to the state of Illinois when he applied for a law license. Our original post mentions all aliases of which we’ve become aware over the years.

We do know who Obama claims as his parents:  Barack Hussein Obama and Stanley Ann Dunham.  If they’re not his real parents, then who are his real parents?

If there’s no record of Obama in this country before he was age five, then how can that be explained?  We’re open to learning the truth.  We’re waiting for the truth.  Congress needs to finally get off its collective butt and find the truth for which We the People have been waiting, lo, these many years.

Chief Kessler implied that the CCP will soon wrap up its investigation and then turn all the evidence over to Congress, in the hope that Congress will be inspired to investigate this situation for themselves.

Congress, unlike the CCP, will have the power to subpoena records and call witnesses under oath.  They will also have the power to prise from the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) those disappeared port of entry records for the week beginning August 1, 1961–the week of Obama’s alleged birth.

Even if, as Lt. Mike Zullo of the CCP stated, the folks at NARA have lawyered up, they can still be called as witnesses.  Let them, like Lois Lerner, publicly take the Fifth.  Congress can dispatch inspectors to examine all of the actual records at NARA.  Surely somebody at NARA will talk. (We really do need to add NARA to the list of alphabet agencies that have been corrupted by this administration.)

Congress also should be able to prise from Hawaii the TRUTH about Obama’s supposed long-form birth certificate.  They can find out once and for all WHEN that document was originally created.  If any certified document truly exists in 3-D form, they will be able to determine, once and for all, whether it exactly matches the allegedly forged and computer-generated pdf that was posted on the White House blog and presented as Obama’s long-form birth certificate.  If there’s no exact match, then Congress can find out why not.

We the People deserve to know the TRUTH about the man in the White House.

Who is this man?  

When we finally learn the truth, will “what” he is make our “blood boil,” as Kessler claims?  If Obama’s not American and not Kenyan, then what is he?

Will We the People EVER learn the truth?

          Obama: “All I Care About Right Now is Governing”

          by Keith Koffler on June 13, 2013, 7:33 am

          Speaking at his 18th fundraiser of the year, President Obama Wednesday evening declared without apparent irony that governing the nation is his sole priority.

          Now, I’ve run my last campaign — and Michelle is very happy about that,” Obama said to laughter from well-heeled donors who had assembled at the Miami Beach residence of philanthropist Joseph Blount. “And so what that means is I think you can have confidence that all I care about right now is governing.”

          But Obama’s actions would appear to say otherwise.

          With the three fundraisers he attended Wednesday – one in Boston for the Senate campaign of Rep. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) and two in Miami Beach for the Democratic National Committee – Obama’s total for 2013 already tops the number George W. Bush did for the entire year in 2005. …”

          Obama: Lincoln is “My Favorite President”

          Obama: Lincoln is “My Favorite President”

          by Keith Koffler on June 13, 2013, 8:50 am

          President Obama Wednesday made a contribution to the Democrats’ campaign to paint Republicans as extremists, declaring Abraham Lincoln to be his favorite president.

          “Look, I don’t believe that any single party has a monopoly on wisdom,” Obama said. “My favorite President is a guy from Illinois who founded the Republican Party, effectively — Abraham Lincoln, our first Republican President.”

          Democrats in recent weeks have been attempting portray Republicans as a group of radicals unfit for power, suggesting that GOP icons like Abraham Lincoln and even Ronald Reagan wouldn’t recognize the Party.

          Obama went on to infer that Republicans were discriminatory and hostile to the principles of equality that Lincoln has come to represent.

          What does make me a Democrat is the basic idea that in this country, no matter what you look like, no matter where you come from, no matter who you love, you should be able to get ahead if you’re willing to work hard and act responsibly,” Obama said. …”

          Koffler points out that once again, Barry “misspoke”. Lincoln was a Republican but did NOT found the party. But Barry never lets facts get in the way of a good lying spin. http://www.whitehousedossier.com/2013/06/13/newtown-families-town/

          Newtown Families Back in Town; Meeting With Obama, Biden

          by Keith Koffler on June 13, 2013, 1:42 pm

          President Obama and Vice President Biden will keep the gun issue simmering with a meeting today with the families of victims of the Newtown massacre.

          Friday is the six-month anniversary of the shootings, and the families are in Washington seeking to relaunch efforts to pass gun control legislation. …”

          I’m sure they were the usual subjects (or can we now, at this point, call them suspects? I’m suspicious of them.)

            Newtown families relaunch gun control push

            Ahead of the six-month anniversary of the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., the families of the Newtown victims are reviving a push for Congress to take up gun control.

            After lobbying members of Congress at their Washington offices on Tuesday and Wednesday, the Newtown families on Thursday are holding a day-long public event at the Capitol to remind lawmakers and the nation of the tragic Dec. 14 shooting — and all the gun violence that has occurred since.

            They plan on reading the names of the names of the 4,800 people who have been killed by gunfire since Newtown, as well as holding a press conference with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and other members of Congress. After that, the families will form a human “ribbon of remembrance,” observe a moment of silence, and then continue reading the names of gun violence victims. …

            New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and the organization he co-chairs, Mayors Against Illegal Guns, are also renewing their efforts.

            Bloomberg on Wednesday sent New York Democratic donors a letter, asking them not to donate to the campaigns of Democratic Sens. Mark Begich, Alaska; Mark Pryor, Ark.; Heidi Heitkamp, N.D.; and Max Baucus, Mont.; because of their votes against the background check bill. The letter doesn’t acknowledge that Baucus is not running for reelection or that Heitkamp isn’t up for reelection until 2018.

            The National Rifle Association, for their part, is fighting back against Bloomberg and targeting Manchin with a new TV ad, which urges West Virginia voters to call Manchin’s office and tell him “to honor his commitment to the Second Amendment.””

            STILL politicizing the deaths. Maybe in the interest of the public good and transparency, they could argue against hiding all the records and all the evidence from that incident. Did CT pass that law?

            Usual faces:

            • “Jillian Soto — whose sister Victoria, a teacher at the school, was killed in the massacre — is scheduled to appear on Capitol Hill Thursday, a day after relatives of victims Daniel Barden, Lauren Rousseau, Jesse Lewis, Dylan Hockley, Mary Sherlach, Ana Marquez-Greene and Benjamin Wheeler traveled to Washington to commemorate the anniversary.

              “I thought it was important to be there so it wasn’t a date that was just forgotten,” Neil Heslin, father of Jesse Lewis, told the Hartford Courant.”

            • TOO LATE! http://www.countytimes.com/articles/2013/06/09/news/doc51afd6a29b5b5895221227.txt

              Connecticut Governor Malloy Signs Bill Restricting Newtown Crime Scene Photos

              Gov. Dannel P. Malloy signed legislation into law Wednesday that prevents the public release of crime scene photos and video evidence from the Connecticut school shootings that took the lives of 20 first graders and six school employees.

              The new law, a result of efforts to balance private and public interests, creates an exemption to the state’s Freedom of Information Act and applies to homicides in Connecticut.

              The law prevents the release of photographs, film, video and other images depicting a homicide victim if those records “could reasonably be expected to constitute an unwarranted invasion of the personal privacy of the victim or the victim’s surviving family members.”

              Malloy signed the bill hours after the General Assembly approved the eleventh-hour compromise during the early morning hours of the final day of the state legislative session. Malloy said he believes “a parent of a deceased child should have the right to remember that child” as they wish and not because they were “caught up in some tragic and unbelievable circumstances.”

              The governor’s office originally worked privately with legislative leaders and the state’s top prosecutor to draft a bill that would address the concerns of families who lost relatives in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown. They considered various proposals, including legislation applying only to the Newtown victims and allowing their families to decide whether certain information should be released.

              But in the end, the bill was tailored off an exemption in the federal Freedom of Information law.

              During a somber early-morning Senate debate on the bill, as several family members of the victims looked on, Senate President Donald E. Williams Jr. said lawmakers were moved by the parents’ concerns and tried to come up with a fair proposal.

              “We have tried our best as Democrats and Republicans to work together to protect the interests of these families, these parents, these relatives sitting behind me, at the same time honoring our tradition as a free and open democracy,” he said.

              The new law creates a one-year moratorium on the release of certain portions of audiotape or other recordings in which the condition of a homicide victim is described. The exemption does not include 911 emergency call recordings, however. …”

              Convenient, huh? Timely. It’s safe to come out again.

              • “Mark Barden, whose 7-year-old son Daniel was killed, told The Associated Press he knows of individuals and groups that want the photos. Given today’s technology, he said, one photograph can be distributed worldwide and remain accessible forever.

                “It’s these strange individuals and fringe interest groups that have expressed a very real need for this information and they don’t have any business having it,” he said. “Nobody would benefit from it. On the contrary, it would do so much harm.””

                How so? Michael Moore thinks it would HELP their gun control campaign.

          • “Connecticut Governor Malloy Signs Bill Restricting Newtown Crime Scene Photos

            Of course! I think we expected this. What about the death certificates, are they still with holding the death certificates also? No blood no gore just proof of death…oh wait. Never mind.

            • I think they’re withholding virtually everything, including whether or not some ever actually existed in the first place.

  2. In keeping with the theme of this post (who is this man?), check out this pic:

    Resemble anyone you know? Just cover the top half. h/t a freeper

    Try this one, too:

    Barry’s going to Africa soon, too: http://www.capitalradiomalawi.com/index.php/component/k2/item/2354

    • Wow! I did as you said and covered up the top half of the picture… it’s uncanny!

      • Yes, amazingly uncanny! Relation?

        • If they’re going to posit other “royalty” (like Malcolm X) then why not this guy, too? His story actually sounds somewhat like Barry’s. There’s the “royalty” angle because remember it was said that Lolo raised his kids as “royals” in the compound at Yogyakarta. It is a very uncanny resemblance. I agree. It would be possible because Mandela was free along about the time Barry (if really born when he claims) was conceived AND at that same time, white commie activists might have been trouping over to help with his campaigns.

      • It is, isn’t it? I never noticed that before. It makes one wonder what ethnicity Mandela is. Wikipedia says Xhosa:

        “A Xhosa born to the Thembu royal family, Mandela attended Fort Hare University and the University of Witwatersrand, where he studied law. Living in Johannesburg, he became involved in anti-colonial politics, joining the ANC and becoming a founding member of its Youth League. After the Afrikaner nationalists of the National Party came to power in 1948 and began implementing the policy of apartheid, he rose to prominence in the ANC’s 1952 Defiance Campaign, was elected President of the Transvaal ANC Branch and oversaw the 1955 Congress of the People. Working as a lawyer, he was repeatedly arrested for seditious activities and, with the ANC leadership, was prosecuted in the Treason Trial from 1956 to 1961 but was found not guilty. Although initially committed to non-violent protest, in association with the South African Communist Party he co-founded the militant Umkhonto we Sizwe (MK) in 1961, leading a bombing campaign against government targets. In 1962 he was arrested, convicted of sabotage and conspiracy to overthrow the government, and sentenced to life imprisonment in the Rivonia Trial.”

        About the tribe:

        “The Xhosa are part of the South African Nguni migration which slowly moved south from the region around the Great Lakes, displacing the original Khoisan hunter gatherers of Southern Africa. Xhosa peoples were well established by the time of the Dutch arrival in the mid-17th century, and occupied much of eastern South Africa from the Fish River to land inhabited by Zulu-speakers south of the modern city of Durban.”

        So they originated near Kenya, which COULD explain the similarity, if Barry’s Kenyan.

        If you read about Mandela’s parents, there are some very eerie similarities, too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_Mandela#Early_life

        “His father, Gadla Henry Mphakanyiswa, was a local chief and councillor to the monarch; he had been appointed to the position in 1915, after his predecessor was accused of corruption by a governing white magistrate.[6] In 1926, Gadla, too, was sacked for corruption, but Nelson would be told that he had lost his job for standing up to the magistrate’s unreasonable demands.[7] A devotee of the god Qamata,[8] Gadla was a polygamist, having four wives, four sons and nine daughters, who lived in different villages. Nelson’s mother was Gadla’s third wife, Nosekeni Fanny, who was daughter of Nkedama of the Right Hand House and a member of the amaMpemvu clan of Xhosa.[9]

        Later stating that his early life was dominated by “custom, ritual and taboo”,[11] Mandela grew up with two sisters in his mother’s kraal in the village of Qunu, where he tended herds as a cattle-boy, spending much time outside with other boys.[12] Both his parents were illiterate, but being a devout Christian, his mother sent him to a local Methodist school when he was about seven. Baptised a Methodist, Mandela was given the English forename of “Nelson” by his teacher.[13] When Mandela was about nine, his father came to stay at Qufu, where he died of an undiagnosed ailment which Mandela believed to be lung disease.[14] Feeling “cut adrift”, he later said that he inherited his father’s “proud rebelliousness” and “stubborn sense of fairness”.[15]

        His mother took Mandela to the “Great Place” palace at Mqhekezweni, where he was entrusted under the guardianship of Thembu regent, Chief Jongintaba Dalindyebo. Raised by Jongintaba and his wife Noengland alongside their son Justice and daughter Nomafu, Mandela felt that they treated him as their son, but would not see his mother for many years.[16] As Mandela attended church services every Sunday with his guardians, Christianity became a significant part of his life.[17] He attended a Methodist mission school located next to the palace, studying English, Xhosa, history and geography.[18] He developed a love of African history, listening to the tales told by elderly visitors to the palace, and becoming influenced by the anti-imperialist rhetoric of Chief Joyi …”

        Mythical, almost. 🙂

      i cannot believe these pictures.

      • “President Obama and his family will be going to Africa later this month. But the trip won’t be cheap; it’s expected to cost American taxpayers $60 to $100 million, according to the Washington Post.

        “When President Obama makes his first extended trip to sub-Saharan Africa later this month, the federal agencies charged with keeping him safe won’t be taking any chances. Hundreds of U.S. Secret Service agents will be dispatched to secure facilities in Senegal, South Africa and Tanzania. A Navy aircraft carrier or amphibious ship, with a fully staffed medical trauma center, will be stationed offshore in case of emergency,” reports the Post.

        “Military cargo planes will airlift in 56 support vehicles, including 14 limousines and three trucks loaded with sheets of bullet-proof glass to cover the windows of the hotels where the first family will stay. Fighter jets will fly in shifts giving 24-hour coverage over the president’s airspace so they can intervene quickly if an errant plane gets too close. …”

        Explain that to the furloughed people and all the unemployed.

        • And Christopher Stevens couldn’t get one measly person to guard him. Fighter jets will fly in shifts so they can intervene quickly….but I thouhgt he was so loved.

        • Why Obama chose Tanzania for his Africa tour

          By JOINT REPORT The EastAfrica

          Posted Saturday, June 1 2013 at 17:00

          What is US President Barack Obama’s interest in Tanzania?

          This is the question analysts are asking following the announcement by Washington that Dar will be part of Obama’s one-week visit to Africa later this month.

          America’s growing interest in Tanzania has not been lost on observers as it has been a destination for some of Obama’s senior-most officials.

          A delegation of US energy executives travelled to Tanzania last year on a prospecting tour led by Johnnie Carson, who was then the top Africa diplomat in the Obama administration. Mr Carson was effusive in his praise for Tanzania prior to the visit later in 2012 by then-secretary of state Hillary Clinton.

          Tanzania diplomats attending the just ended African Union Summit in Addis Ababa disclosed to The EastAfrican that energy investments will be a key agenda during President Obama’s visit in July, as the US seeks a piece of the oil and gas boom in East Africa, balancing off China’s growing participation in the sector.

          In addition to energy, they argued, Tanzania will showcase the social infrastructure investments made with the first tranche of the $689.1 million Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) fund, seeking to qualify for the second tranche.

          Diplomats seeking anonymity because President Jakaya Kikwete in an interview with The EastAfrican had earlier declined to divulge the agenda of the meeting with Obama, said the a new tranche from the MCC will come in handy as the country faces financing shortfalls for infrastructure.

          http://www.theeastafrican.co.ke/news/Why-Obama-chose-Tanzania-for-his-Africa-tour-/-/2558/1869570/-/7ef4lb/-/index.html

          • “Dar will be part of Obama’s one-week visit to Africa…”

            Watch out, DAR, he’s coming. 🙂 Sorry, I couldn’t resist.

  3. Observation:

    The text of the Form I-9 has been changed to make it sound as if the burden is now on the Employer, rather than the Employee

    Here’s what the form said when Obama took office as pResident (http://web.archive.org/web/20090103151148/http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-9.pdf):

    All employees (citizens and noncitizens) hired after November 6, 1986 and working in the United States must complete a Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification.

    And here’s what the form says now (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-9.pdf):

    Employers must complete Form I-9 to document verification of the identity and employment authorization of each new employee (both citizen and noncitizen) hired after November 6, 1986, to work in the United States.

    Note, too, that the word “eligibility” has been dropped from that sentence…

    • That’s probably because not all ’employees’ can read or read in english!

    • Good “observation”, Red Pill. Curious. It follows, though, with Obama and the progs wanting to put the burden on employers and not on the lying illegal alien “immigrants”.

      • And specifically, Obama.

        The burden of proof, to prove Employment Eligibility, is on the employee (Obama), not on anyone else.

        It is Obama who must prove that he is eligible to hold the job that he holds. And for that particular job, it’s not sufficient to have a work visa, a green card, or even to be a naturalized citizen or citizen at birth… it’s required that he be a natural born citizen… born in the country to parents who are its citizens.

        I know, I’m preaching to the choir, but I believe this shift in terminology on the Form I-9 is at least partially intended to shift the “burden of proof” from the employee to the employer… and since there does not appear to be ANYONE in our government who required Obama to submit a Form I-9 and Acceptable Documentation, he just simply ignored the law.

  4. From ORYR:

    Shock Claim: Glenn Beck Has Hacked Emails Used To
    Blackmail Chief Justice John Roberts Over Obamacare Ruling?

    Before Its News has an anonymous source who has provided this information on the scandal Glenn Beck promises to reveal on Thursday, June 13, 2013.

    Here’s the GLENN BECK scandal that he will reveal within 24 hours…

    It will be announced that hacked emails were used to blackmail and extort Chief Justice Roberts. Very embarrassing emails were obtained, and he was told to vote to declare Obamacare constitutional, or his family life would be destroyed.PREPARE. – Before It’s News.

    • Well, shame on Chief Justice for not having more balls and being a Chief Justice without an attitude of “Give me Liberty or give me Death!”

  5. Here is what Obama said recently with regard to NSA spying:

    “We’ve got congressional oversight and judicial oversight. And if people can’t trust not only the executive branch but also don’t trust Congress and don’t trust federal judges to make sure THAT WE’RE ABIDING BY THE CONSTITUTION, DUE PROCESS AND THE RULE OF LAW, then we’re going to have some problems here.”

    We do have and have had “some problems here” for at least the past five years because experience has shown us that WE CANNOT TRUST THAT THE CONGRESS, JUDGES, OR THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH will abide by the CONSTITUTION OR THE RULE OF LAW.

    OBAMA REMAINS UNVETTED. THE CONSTITUTION DEMANDS A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN. WE STILL DO NOT KNOW WHETHER HE IS ONE, BUT EVERYTHING SAYS OTHERWISE–THAT HE IS INELIGIBLE. OTHERWISE, WHY PRODUCE A FORGED BIRTH CERTIFICATE? None of them: Courts, executive branch, OR Congress will see to it that Obama has abided by the Constitution.

  6. Joel Gilbert was on the Joy Tiz Show on Blogtalk radio. He said that it’s typical commie procedure to use the power of government against opponents and to create a one-party state (which is why Barry is pushing immigration reform, no doubt). Gilbert himself was targeted by the IRS as soon as his video came out naming FMD as Barry’s father. They denied all his deductions and still have a huge “bill” outstanding that his accountant has tried to clear up for over a year (and which he doesn’t owe). In addition, his information was given to political opponents who harassed him. He believes, after the IRS scandal, that it’s likely the information was given to them by someone at the IRS. (He ought to sue.) He seems to say that Stanley Armour did work for the CIA, was never a furniture salesman, and was stationed in Lebanon (which would explain SAD’s Catholic school uniform in that one photo). I don’t know if the tape is available, but it was here as I listened to it: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/joytiz/2013/06/13/the-joy-tiz-show Maybe someone knows about archives at Blogtalk radio?

    Interesting article.

    “Major Changes In The Washington Media Scene

    Tomorrow, the paper that is the famous subject of a John Philip Sousa March, that has been free since 1996 on the web, will suddenly go behind a pay wall, limiting non-subscribers to only 20 free articles a month. … Newsroom morale is tanking, along with the templates of “How does it help Obama” stories.

    The Second major media transformation occurring this week came as a more of a shock, when it was announced that the Denver based Billionaire Phillip Anschutz is terminating the daily free Washington Examiner. Sources say that when the final edition gets stuffed into those red boxes around the city, as many as 87 people will be on the unemployment line, in the metropolitan area that has suffered the least nationally in the latest economic downturn. …

    My offer to them was in the form of an Op-Ed about the story that has become too hot for Washington to handle. It is the story that explains the recent allegations of IRS targeting of conservatives, the NSA domestic spying. It is the root cause of why conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh stated “we are in the midst of a peaceful coup.”

    What tripped up the Washington Examiner with me, was a very simple question: if the man sitting behind the desk at 1600 Pennsylvania is spending 5 million clams on defending a “document” in court, over a question that could be solved with $40 in photocopies, doesn’t that “document” deserve a forensic document review? After all, the conservative movement had agreed that a computer file that had pixels that matched perfectly cleared George W. Bush from a false accusation about his national guard service. Shouldn’t a conservative newspaper be wise to the ways of the left in that regard? At the Washington Examiner in March 2012, they clearly weren’t.

    So with the offer “to wash their dishes,” I went to the Washington Examiner offices in downtown Washington, carrying an op Ed questioning my President’s life story. My first visit was pleasant and cordial, with the secretary asking for my phone number, to let me know if they were going to publish the story.

    Whether they published something from me or not, that was not the main point. The point was to work with them on a story. With that in mind, I took off for the paper’s offices on a second visit, in full dark suit and tie, hoping to convey the view I was by no means a card carrying member of the John Birch society, but rather someone who simply believed that a reporter’s call to a former ex FBI document examiner on his lunch hour could end the tyranny of the most left wing President America ever elected.

    That second visit was brutal. The secretary’s smile was wiped from her face when I came through the door, asking for a sit-down with an editor. I told him right up front that I wanted to work with the paper whether or not they published my story on this important issue. All he could say was “Take it somewhere else.” So I engaged him by saying “why not forensically examine the document?” I got a look from him of “Duh! I never thought of that before,” when I said that. As the junior editor was losing it with me, Mark Tapscott comes in with a look like I had carried WMD into the building and said “If this about the birth certificate, you need to leave now.” And then a snide remark as I was heading out the door – he said, “don’t come back.”… Many of the soon-to-be-laid-off reporters tried to assuage me in my experience, explaining it was just “a corporate decision” on the Examiner’s part not to follow up on the biggest political scandal in the history of the USA.”
