As a Republican, I can say that Obama doesn't deserve most of the hate he receives.

I think he does.

If he had mobilized public resources to shut the oil spill down, such as the military, would it have gone any faster?

BP was better equipped to deal with it than the US government was.

Probably not, but if he had brought the military in, the right-wingers who stomped him for "doing nothing", would have cried that Obama is abusing his power and using illegal military force.

It's a lose-lose situation for him, as Katrina was for the Bush Admin.

Everything is a lose lose situation for Obama. I saw O'Reilly criticizing him for poor body language once.

Is it illegal to use them in national emergencies and disasters?

No, shouldn't be. Not sure about needing approval from Congress either, as it's not a war situation.

But the point was, no matter what he did, there's some people he can never satisfy.

But he's a Muslim who was born in Kenya.
They said awhile back they found his Birth Certificate and he was born in the US. still dont know if its legit or not. why hide it all this time.

b/c its no ones business and if he werent born in the U.S it be easy enough to find out as a fake certificate would not be enough to sway ppl with other actual legitimate evidence,,

how far has conspiracy nuts gotten that now the biggest conspiracy isnt aliens, or government cover ups but a birth certificate

They didn't hide it. Anybody who wanted to could have just checked the registry in Hawaii.

You have to show it 1st before getting elected as president so yes it is others business as well. and wouldnt you want to know if the person your voting for was born in the states or not ?

It's legit. It's been available since before he ran for president, no one hid it, simply the people (I.E. Racists) who believed he was born elsewhere didn't care and ignored the proof and doctored up their own birth certificate of his and put it online.

There was also mention in the local Hawaiian news paper announcing his birth the day he was born.

Stupid people believe stupid things. More proof right here.

All this time for what? It was never hidden.

to be honest the born in the usa is xenophobic attitude for a land which is populated by immigrants of all nation and believe in equality.

also no one is hiding it do you really want him to walk with it 24/7?

I herd some rumors as well of people saying that his mother said he was born in Kenya.

What's more likely?

A) He was born in Hawaii, the BC is real and the local birth announcement is real

B) Obama is a Kenyan born Muslim and there is a huge conspiracy in the US government from both parties to cover this up and lie to everyone about it so he could run for President

Nobody waited... it was freely available at all times. You just don't accept it.

i pick option 2 as the mostly likely reason it is all a conglomerate conspiracy to put a black man into office as a puppet.

easy enough to silence the millions of ppl that might derail the plans
