Email to Glenn Beck on "The Birther Issue" and "Original Sources"
Glenn,
I've heard you tout "go to original sources, go to original sources".
Yet, you deride people that are looking for the original source Birth Certificate for Obama, and you call them nuts, birthers, etc.
The correct position here, and should be adopted by someone with your stature and clout, is that you do not necessarily believe that Obama was not born here, but you can not understand why he is reluctant to release his original long form birth certificate. For a politician who ran on a NEW politics and on "the most transparent administration" platform, it is the utmost height of cynicism that he will not release his birth certificate. He is furthering the unrest and cynicism of many people by the position that he has adopted as well as now SPENDING OUR MONEY defending his position (using DOJ lawyers).
Please pull out your original Birth Certificate and peruse it and compare it to the Certificate of Live Birth provided by Obama. Then ask yourself, why won't he provide the ORIGINAL SOURCE document????
I will give you a plausible scenario (that I imagined based on research that I have done on this topic) that probably includes information that you are unaware of. Say Obama was born outside the US. We know his mother was a Left Wing Nut job Flowerchild type. I'm sure Obama's grandmother (the typical white person) was aware of how flaky her daughter was. Obama's grandmother had to be a strong woman to rise to the level of a bank president, and I'm sure was also a smart cookie as well. Well, Obama's mother is out of the US and gives birth to Barack. The Matriarch, smart cookie grandmother takes it upon herself to file the pertinent papers to register Barack as born in Hawaii. At that time, early 1960's, most Hawaiians were born at home and registered the birth by submitting the form to the Dept of Health. The Dept of Health sent the announcement information to the newspapers (I bet you were unaware of this). So this kills the O'Reilly argument - "Oh I've seen the two newspaper announcements". So the problem may be that the original birth certificate shows a home birth - who knows - who would like to know??????
So I believe there is a preponderance of evidence that in front of a jury would be enough to introduce reasonable doubt, thus elevating this to the level of at maximum a Constitutional Crisis and at least a cynical ploy by the President to continue unrest within the populace, that the press would never let a Conservative President get away with.
So I hope you would reconsider this issue. It would take a big man to do so, after the statements that you have made on this issue. But I challenge you to follow your own challenge of GOING TO THE ORIGINAL SOURCES.
Sincerely,
Sons of Reagan
