Oh yes he is!

There is a case being appealed to the Supreme Court which claims that Barack Obama is not eligible to be President as because his father was Kenyan, Obama is therefore not a natural born US citizen, even though he was born on US soil.

Fortunately, it seems likely (from the report that I heard) that the Supreme Court will decide not to hear this case, but it still makes me angry. (And it is only one of several similar cases, all of which have been tossed out of lower courts, thankfully.

Saying that is like saying that my children, both born in the US, are not natural born US citizens because I was born in Britain. Well, they are most undoubtedly and assuredly are and always have been. I find this case to be a great insult to them as much as Obama.

The nerve of some people. Oh, how I would like to meet this guy and set him right.

*sigh* It really does not surprise me that this is happening. It's a last ditch effort to prevent it from happening, which is utter asshattery. Nutters on parade, I tell you, nutters on parade. They just need to accept reality...oh wait, it's not their reality so they find it difficult. *rolls eyes*
