Re “Donald Trump Gets Weirder,” by Gail Collins (column, April 2):
Even before Gail Collins was with the New York Times, she has written nasty and derogatory articles about me. Actually, I have great respect for Ms. Collins in that she has survived so long with so little talent. Her storytelling ability and word usage (coming from me, who has written many bestsellers), is not at a very high level. More importantly, her facts are wrong!
As far as her comments on the so-called “birther” issue, I don’t need Ms. Collins’s advice. There is a very large segment of our society who believe that Barack Obama, indeed, was not born in the United States. His grandmother from Kenya stated, on tape, that he was born in Kenya and she was there to watch the birth. His family in Honolulu is fighting over which hospital in Hawaii he was born in-they just don’t know.
He has not been able to produce a “birth certificate” but merely a totally unsigned “certificate of live birth”-which is totally different and of very little significance. Unlike a birth certificate, a certificate of live birth is very easy to obtain. Equally of importance, there are no records in Hawaii that a Barack Hussein Obama was born there-no bills, no doctors names, no nurses names, no registrations, no payments, etc. As far as the two notices placed in newspapers, many things could have happened, but some feel the grandparents put an ad in order to show that he was a citizen of the U.S. with all of the benefits thereto. Everybody, after all, and especially then, wanted to be a United States citizen.
The term used by Ms. Collins-“birther”-is very derogatory and is meant in a derogatory way. Had this been George Bush or almost any other President or Presidential aspirant, they would never have been allowed to attain office, or would have been thrown out of office very quickly.
For some reason, the press protects President Obama beyond anything or anyone I have ever seen. What they don’t realize is that if he was not born in the United States, they would have uncovered the greatest “scam” in the history of our country. In other words, they would become the hottest writer since Watergate, or beyond.
Open your eyes, Gail, there’s at least a good chance that Barack Hussein Obama has made mincemeat out of our great and cherished Constitution!
DONALD J. TRUMP
New York, April 7, 2011
There are some other issues where Trump parts company with most conservatives. But, on the issue of Obama’s eligibility, Trump is spot-on.
most all the far left wants to destroy the constitution and everything America stands for, so why in HELL would they expose BHO and screw up what the for left has been
trying to achive for over a century?
The answer is quite simple.
The Left is so far along on their journey that they no longer feel the need to mask their plans. They believe (and, they could even be correct) that the vast majority of the people now think as they do. (And, the fact that there was not a revolt in the streets on the day after the 2008 election proves the bad guys’ point.)
If this astounds you, don’t let it. Take a look at several of Jesus’ parables. In the stories of the ten lepers, the ten virgins, and the ten stewards, we discover that 90 percent of people are against God, and only 10 percent really get it.
The Bible warns that, during the last great plagues that are meant as a final warning, people will not repent. Instead, they will stand there, looking up, shaking their fists at God.
At the final judgement, a special punishment is reserved for only three beings — two human, and one former angel. The Beast, the False Prophet, and Satan are cast into the lake of fire to be tormented for ever and ever. They all knew what they were doing, and chose not only to rebel against God but also to lead as many others with them as possible.
The Bible explains that, for some people with an especially high degree of evil in their personality, “their glory is in their shame”. (See also: my comment yesterday on Andrea’s post about Bill Clinton, Monica, and the cigar.) This, of course, brings us back to the second part of your question: “why in HELL would ….” Well, there’s your answer.
