Obama's Smoking Gun ??

[gonerail]

Scalia will follow thru with this!

The pressure continues to mount of getting suspicious records about Obama and his country of origin. SNOPES confirms Occidental College did, indeed, release records that Obama had been admitted to that California college as Barry Sortero ( one of Obama's known 6 names) on a Fullbright Scolarship with his country as INDONESIA!!!! Finally, just maybe the mask will come off. TRUTH OR FICTION takes a neutral position.

Smoking Gun Found? So what will happen now? Wonder why the media has not reported on this?


AP- WASHINGTON D.C. - In a move certain to fuel the debate over Obama's qualifications for the presidency, the group "Americans for Freedom of Information" has released copies of President Obama's college transcripts from Occidental College. Released today, the transcript indicates that Obama, under the name Barry Soetoro, received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia as an undergraduate at the school. The transcript was released by Occidental College in compliance with a court order in a suit brought by the group in the Superior Court of California. The transcript shows that Obama (Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was awarded a fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Foundation Scholarship program. To qualify, for the scholarship, a student must claim foreign citizenship.

This document would seem to provide the smoking gun that many of Obama's detractors have been seeking. Along with the evidence that he was first born in Kenya and there is no record of him ever applying for US citizenship, this is looking pretty grim.

The news has created a firestorm at the White House as the release casts increasing doubt about Obama's legitimacy And qualification to serve as president. When reached for comment in London, where he has been in meetings with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Obama smiled but refused comment on the issue.

Britain's Daily Mail has also carried the story in a front-page article titled, "Obama Eligibility Questioned," leading some to speculate that the story may overshadow economic issues on Obama's first official visit to the U.K.

In a related matter, under growing pressure from several groups, Justice Antonin Scalia announced that the Supreme Court agreed on Tuesday to hear arguments concerning Obama's legal eligibility to serve as President in a case brought by Leo Donofrio of New Jersey. This lawsuit claims Obama's dual citizenship disqualified him from serving as president. Donofrio's case is just one of 18 suits brought by citizens demanding proof of Obama's citizenship Or qualification to serve as president.

Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation has released the results of their investigation of Obama's campaign spending. This study estimates that Obama has spent upwards of $950,000 in campaign funds in the past year with eleven law firms in 12 states for legal resources to block disclosure of any of his person al records. Mr. Kreep indicated that the investigation is still ongoing but that the final report will be provided to the U.S. Attorney general, Eric Holder. Mr. Holder has refused to comment on the matter.

LET OTHER FOLKS KNOW THIS NEWS THE MEDIA WON'T EMBRACE!

I find it QUITE amusing that these emails are now citing SNOPES as saying it's true, hoping that the reader doesn't actually bother to check it out.

http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/occidental.asp

Obviously it's false. I"ll go ahead and transcribe the info on SNOPES that gives it away:

-As the April 1st dateline on this article indicates, it was an April Fools joke

-Obama attended Oxy in California for two years as an undergrad from 1979-81 under his birth name of Barack Obama

-Fullbright scholarships for foreign students are coordinated through the AMINEF, which does not fund Indonesians for undergraduate studies in the U.S. (only post-graduate)

-Britain's Daily Mail had no such article.

-The lawsuit was denied a hearing by the Supreme Court of NJ, and hasn't been taken up by the SCOTUS

Seriously...why can't people do even a MINIMUM of fact checking before posting this drivel???

Whenever I receive an email that says, "SNOPES confirms.....", the first thing I do is check it out with SNOPES.

It's very rare the story checks out with them.
