Chris Matthews: Republicans call Obama “Obama” to delegitimize him
All you really need to know about MSNBC is that Matthews isn’t the first host on the network to make this claim. This isn’t some special fever dream born of one too many leg tingles. This is, to some degree, network groupthink.
Obama’s Birth Announcements Fail To Indicate “Natural Born” Status
A new investigation of Obama’s birth announcements appearing in Hawaii’s two primary newspapers in August, 1961 shows, conclusively, they were the result of a registration record taken by the municipal health authority, not a medically verified “Live” birth documented as occurring at a Hawaiian hospital, per an officially defined “vital event” designated by the U.S. Department of Health, National Vital Statistics Division protocols.

In August, 1961, two announcements allegedly showing a “native” birth for Barack Obama were published in Hawaii’s two primary newspapers, the Sunday Advertiser and the Honolulu Star. For more than three years since Obama engaged his unvetted candidacy for the presidency, many of his supporters have mistakenly lauded these blurbish announcements as the “holy grail” of proof that he was born in the state of Hawaii.
However, a detailed investigation of the history and procedures used by Hawaii’s municipal health department, and its relationship with the newspapers, shows that not only was it a matter of official policy that Obama’s birth would have been announced in the paper regardless of where he was born, the information used to publish the announcements is not even confirmed through any eye-witness medical authority or hospital in the state.
‘Birthers’ aren’t crazy
World Net Daily
Despite what Chris Matthews, Bill O’Reilly and Glenn Beck say, so-called “birthers” aren’t crazy.
In fact, they represent the clear majority of the American people – not some fringe element of society.
It wasn’t that long ago that Matthews and O’Reilly were waving copies of Barack Obama’s certification of live birth, claiming it was a birth certificate that answered all the questions anyone needs to have answered regarding his constitutional eligibility. They went even further, ridiculing anyone who demanded to see actual detailed and unquestionable documentation of Obama’s birth in Hawaii in the form of an actual birth certificate with a doctor’s signature, name of delivering hospital, etc.
Chris Matthews: Obama ’scares me’
Chris Matthews, the bombastic MSNBC talk show host who used to say President Barack Obama sent a thrill up his leg now says the nation’s first African-American President “scares me.”
Matthews, appearing on the “Tonight Show” says Obama’s lack of leadership in the the Gulf Oil spill crisis is frightening.
Matthews asked: “When is he actually going to do something?” The talk show host and one-time aide to late Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill added that the President has “been acting a little like a Vatican observer.”
Matthews transformation from Obama lover to critic highlights a growing dissatisfaction with the President that crosses both party and ideological lines.
Obama’s lack of leadership has already cost the Democratic party support of independents who helped put him in the White House and Democrats in control of Congress.
When cheerleaders like Chris Matthews head for the lifeboats you know the good ship Obama is taking on water and sinking fast.
