List of Redfish’s Birther lies, speculations and innuendo
1) “Bill Clinton says Obama’s not American”
Of course there is no record of Bill Clinton saying that- there is only the uncorroborated statement on the record by one woman that Bill Clinton told her that he knew Obama was not eligible. (and that McCain was not eligible)
Status of Redfish’s claim: Lie
2) “Romney released his[college records] voluntarily”
Romney never released his college records, and Birthers never asked for them.
Status of Redfish’s claim: Lie
3) “Obama spent millions
“Perkins Cole of Seattle were paid to defend suits requesting release of his records in several states….they were paid over a million dollars to keep you and me from seeing his college records”
Investigated- and mostly false- as in there is no record that Obama’s campaign ever spent a million dollars defending against any Birther claims.
No President Obama Hasn t Spent Millions To Keep His Birth Certificate Private
So that leaves the funds paid to Perkins Coie. Trump’s and Palin’s claims assume that the vast majority of the money paid to Perkins Coie since the election was used to defend against lawsuits challenging Obama’s citizenship. We agree that some amount of money was spent in legal fees related to those lawsuits — the letter from Bauer to the plaintiff is an example of that. But, while we don’t know exactly how much the Obama camp spent on their private lawyers, there were many, many non-birth-certificate duties that a law firm typically handles in the wake of a presidential campaign, which suggests that any birth certificate work was a small percentage of the overall fees paid to Perkins Coie.
In addition- there were only 3 lawsuits that Obama was a defendant- and Perkins Cole didn’t represent Obama in most(all?) of the cases- and all were quickly dismissed.
Status of Redfish’s claim: Speculation
4) “nothing I have said is untrue”
LOL see above and below
5) “just pointing out the truth, carbon head. Hillary started it.”
There is no evidence that Hillary Clinton ever was involved with the Birther movement in any fashion or form. Some of her supporters- the so-called Puma’s were. The earliest recorded mention of the Birther claims was March 2008 on the rightwing blog- FreeRepublic
Barackryphal The Secret Origin of the Birthers
I was told today that Obama swore in on a Koran for his Senate seat. I do not believe he did. Can someone clarify this for me? I am under the impression only a Congressman has so far sworn in on a Koran.
Also that Obama’s mother gave birth to him overseas and then immediately flew into Hawaii and registered his birth as having taken place in Hawaii.
Again, any clarifications on this? Defintely disqualifies him for Prez. There must be some trace of an airticket. While small babies are not charged air fare they do have a ticket issued for them.

6) actually he was a black arab, you can look it up.
Why this is important to anyone other than a racist I don’t know, but it is a claim that we have seen from racists around 2008.
Well I did ‘look it up’- not a single credible reference- and I mean I won’t take Rush Limbaugh’s claim as a source- says that Obama is ‘arab’.
Status of Redfish’s claims: Lie
7) Do you find it funny that his grandmother died shortly after his visit to her in Hawaii?
As pointed out- Obama’s grandmother was elderly and ill- and Obama rushed to see her because of her poor health.
Status of Redfish’s claim: Innuendo
8) He either was a foreign student or commited fraud to get the money. which is it?
There is no evidence that shows that Barack Obama was ever a foreign student- or committed fraud to get any money. Just Redfish lying again
Status of Redfish’s claim: Lie
Nice try, but I have to give you an F. You have disproven nothing.
Then where are Romney's college records that he 'voluntarily released'?
And of course, what is your evidence that Obama was
but lets just go with your number 8 for a minute. Harvard and Columbia are very expensive colleges. Obama claims that he was a poor halfbreed from Hawaii via Indonesia and that he never had any money. So you tell us, how did he pay the tuition, room, and board at those very expensive schools?
I have no idea. Scholarships from the school,. scholarships from private sources, affirmative action, student loans, his grandparents, friends of the family, a litany of possible ways.
You however have claimed that Obama was either born in Kenya or lied to the college.
Prove it.
You obviously can't. Making your dichotomy a lie. As it wasn't ONLY one or the other. It could have been a variety of different reasons. And you don't know which it was.
As to proving it, his college records would prove it one way or the other. If those records would make all of the "birthers" look like idiots, do you really think he would not have released them to gain the political points?.
You are under the assumption that anyone cares about the wildass claims you make.
If President Obama spent his time disproving all of the lies his enemies were spreading about him to be false, he would not have time to personally be setting up the FEMA camps that will eventually house you all, after Obama proclaims himself Emperor......
