Sean Hannity: "I Want To See Obamas School Records. Something Is Hidden, Something Doesn't Add Up

[Dot Com]

They don't work for you or me. Sorry- that is just not true- they work for the United States.

We the people get to decide every 4 years who gets to be President- if we don't believe that they have provided us enough information, then we can choose not to vote for them.

In 2012- neither Obama or romney released their school records.

The voters choose Obama.

And he has no obligation to provide you anything.

And he shouldn't waste his time.

I feel that he most certainly DOES have an obligation to me as the POTUS. If I was an employer and I wanted to see a particular employees qualifications, then YES, I am entitled to see that! Same thing here. He has no right to refuse or delay releasing such information, as he is OUR employee.

As an employer you do.....within the bounds of the job

You have no right to demand proof of any bizarre conspiracy theory that may pop into your head

Sorry, but asking for college transcripts and the like is NOT an unreasonable request to make of anyone. This is information that we ALL have to provide to our employers if requested.

G.W. Bush refused to release his...

Well, he should have too. That shouldn't be the norm. If the people want to see a politician's qualifications, then that politician should have to supply the documentation. ALL of them.

where is that in the Constitution?

 

[rightwinger]

What paperwork do you think he has?
Do you think he has college applications from 35 years ago? Do you think any college would keep records that long?

The colleges have copies of his transcripts, that includes all such information, Einstein. All he has to do is make a request.

Have you ever requested college transcripts?
Colleges keep records of what classes you took and what grades you received and whether or not you graduated. What would make you think that colleges keep records of the thousands of college applications they receive for over 35 years?

Of course there are records of applications and applicants.

Thousands and thousands apply every year. For what reason would colleges keep those records for decades?

Um, thankfully because of the computer age, it is possible to keep college records of all kinds for decades and decades, and especially if you had ATTENDED that college, they probably keep ALL of your records for a very long time.

In this Information Age, keeping records that you have no legal or practical use for leaves you open for a security breach. Those application records would contain social security numbers, financial information and personal information that would leave the school open for massive lawsuits
There is no reason for a school to keep ancient application records. What possible use would they be?

What qualifications of President Obama were not released that are relevant to his job?

 

[Syriusly]

Who was quoted as saying that he "bragged about being a foreign student" 30 years ago?

Someone with an agenda now might remember him saying something about family in Kenya, and decide to phrase it as "bragged about being a foreign student." The "brag" part gives it away.

Speculation on your part.

A woman who claims to have been a classmate delivered some bizarre claims about President Barack Obama in an interview.

As Right Wing Watch first reported, Mia Marie Pope told right-wing preacher James David Manning that she believes that Obama was not only active within the gay community, but also a heavy cocaine user during his years in Hawaii.

"He always portrayed himself as a foreign student," Pope said. "Girls were never anything that he ever was interested in ... He would get with these older white gay men, and this is how we just pretty much had the impression that that's how he was procuring his cocaine." Obama Was A Cocaine-Using Gay Hustler Says Woman Who Claims To Have Been Hawaiian Classmate​

Or we could listen to what actual classmates and teachers of his say- you know ones who are in the yearbook with him- instead of some woman who has no proof she ever even met Barack Obama

His Basketball coach
"He was what I would call a ‘Basketball Jones,'" says Chris McLachlin '64 who coached the lanky teen during his senior year on the Varsity team. "That's a person who lives, eats, and sleeps with their basketball: they dribble it to school, they dribble it between classes, they shoot baskets on Middle Field during lunch. And Barry had that real love and passion for the game."

"Played forward, he was a smasher, driver, post-up, rebounder kind of guy. Also very good at one-on-one moves, very creative. He just loved the game, would play it 24/7 if he could. One of only a handful of kids I’ve ever coached in 38 years of coaching who would dribble his basketball around with him during school. First to arrive at practice, last one to leave."

Tony Peterson, Basketball Friend

There were only five black kids out of 1,600. I used to get to school early; I'd see Barry and he'd say: 'Let's go shoot some hoops' and we'd play pick-up basketball together. He was a bit chubby but far better than me. Rik, Barry and myself jockeyed around and talked casually, and realised that here we are, intelligent black men, and we could have some good conversations.

Barry was 14, younger than the other two. He was bright, Tony recalls, but not especially charismatic, so Tony was amazed later to see how magnetic his friend had become, watching him on TV. They talked about girls and about race. Would the white and Asian girls date them, those black boys? (They would.) Why was a young black man with a book perceived to be "acting white"? Would there ever be a black president of the United States? Not in their lifetime, they concluded. They couldn't imagine it.

Burt Heilbron, Classmate

"The Barry you saw back then, he was a little bit different ... not out in the limelight," said Burt Heilbron, another classmate, who is vice president of Hawaiian Agents Inc., a product warehousing and distribution company. "He was not outspoken, but always a very well-liked person at Punahou."

Bobby Titcomb, Classmate

His pals say he hasn't changed. "He's honest, he's truthful and he's always encouraged the better things in you," says Bobby Titcomb. "And you always go back to those people who water your plant, who water your garden."

Titcomb recalls when the two friends would take off by themselves into the Hawaiian forest. "We'd go hike up Peacock Flats and camp, just the two of us," he says. "We'd try to get away from everything. We'd basically live on nuts and whatever we could eat on the trail for two or three days. And we'd talk about how the world could be. We didn't say, Wouldn't it be great if we could drive this car or if I could own this house. It was, Don't you think the world should be more like this?"

I remember these puff pieces they put out when he was running. BTW, Frank Marshall Davis was considered to be Obama's father-figure. He was also gay and a communist. He was under investigation by a congressional house committee for UN-American activities..

Nice type of person for young Barry to be hanging around with, and his Grandparents didn't seem to mind it a bit.

And?

Birthers have nothing but lies, speculation and innuendo

Even assuming that everything that you say about Davis is true- so what?

If you're from another country then it's easy to say so what. But if you're from this country it matters.

Part of the process of selecting a leader of this magnitude in this important position was thrown out of the window in Obama's case. His background was hidden and rumors about him ran rampant.

What total BS.

Nothing about Barack Obama's 'background' was hidden- anymore than Bush's or Clinton's background was hidden.

All of the rumors and lies and innuendo you have been spreading were available to Americans in the 2012 election- and they chose Barack Obama over Mitt Romney.

Voters rejected the Birther bullshit.

 

[Steve_McGarrett]

Well, if he just released all of his papers to the public, it would end any speculation. What's he afraid of?

Are you really dumb enough to believe that would end the speculation?

Probably for most. Of course there are always a few straggler conspiracy theorists, but yes I'm pretty sure that if he just released his paperwork that has been requested, it would end a lot of this questioning about his background. You must admit, it is kind of spotty.

Yes, and it worked when he released his Birth Certificate. Don't you have anything important to worry about?

smh...

Well, thankfully, I have the ability to "worry about" more than one thing at a time.

Maybe if he had just released all of his documents when it was requested, suspicions would have never been raised, and this wouldn't even being talked about now.

O'bama put his birth certificate out -- voluntarily ... it's not required -- in June of 2008. Well before even the first election.

Hawaii never confirmed that short form bc put out on the Daily Kos was legit.

[Syriusly]

--- You're actually suggesting with a straight face that somebody shouldn't be president because a third party whose character you have already assassinated claims to have maybe had sex with a girl who had one of the most common first names which was the same name as O'bama's future mother...

Think about that. Desperation strikes deep.

Are you claiming with a straight face that hanging around with perverts doesn't have any effect on a child when he's growing up?

I seem to remember another troubled boy who turned out really screwed up under similar circumstances.

I have no idea who that is.

But the question stands -- do you think people should have only "approved" associates (and by extension, should only read "approved" books, visit "approved" websites, peruse "approved" media and ultimately end up with "approved" worldviews?

More basically, are humans incapable of discerning and analyzing one idea from a competing idea and therefore doomed to put blind faith in whichever idea-sperm wins the race to be the first to fertilize their vulnerable egg-mind?

Have you never known a criminal? A drug addict or alcoholic? A wife-beater? A forger? An old man who grumbles "get off my lawn"?

If you have --- so what? Does that make you a grumpy old wife-beating alcoholic forger? How does it work -- some kind of mental virus infection?

Sorry, but if you expose your children to crime or perversion they're going to learn it and very possibly think it's okay to indulge in it. Children are extremely impressionable. If you hang around with Communists, pedophiles, drug addicts, I think it's a pretty good bet you're going to incorporate that into your lifestyle. On the other hand, if you grew up with your parents and they showed you love and support instead of pushing you off on your commie grandparents that think nothing of letting some perv fondle you, I figure you'd grow up well-adjusted and willing to be a productive member of society.

But you knew all of this.

Like I said- Birthers have nothing but lies, speculation and innuendo......and that post is full of all of those.

Bringing up Birthers isn't a proper response to everything when talking about Obama's past. I don't think he was born outside of the U.S., but to me it doesn't matter. His mother is a citizen, so he should be a citizen regardless where he was born.

If you carry the Birthers water- i.e. if you put the same internet rumors, lies and innuendo about Barack Obama on the board as Birthers do- everything except that he is not eligible- then you are not a Birther- you just act like a Birther.

So I will qualify- Birthers- and you- have nothing but lies, speculation and innuendo.

And that is all you have brought to this thread.

Are you serious? Of course, any university you have attended has ALL of that information on file.

 

[Syriusly]

. I'm not surprised to hear that Obama hung around with homosexuals when he was younger because his public statements since his re-election show that he leans towards that kind of thing in private. He didn't evolve into being the first Gay President, he always was. He was just hiding it from voters. He doesn't trust us to accept his homosexuality, and you Democrats keep proving him right by arguing against the possibility.


[/QUOTE]

You wouldn't be surprised to hear that Barack Obama hung out with Hitler- seriously you are more than willing to believe anything- as long as it it negative towards Barack Obama.

You will be shocked to hear this- but there are heterosexuals who support gay rights. Shocking right?

I have heard it all before from you people- starting in 2008- Conservatives have used whatever dog whistle they thought would excite gullible conservatives like yourself- Obama is gay- Obama is Muslim- Obama is Kenyan- Obama is Marxist- Obama is Indonesian- Obama is a communist- Obama is not American

And you believed them all.

Because you had to.

The constitution has nothing to do with this. The Constitution is for the PEOPLE! Not the government. Duh.

 

[ChrisL]

Because people are requesting documentation. Why shouldn't all presidents be required to release requested information? They work for US, and not the other way around.

They don't work for you or me. Sorry- that is just not true- they work for the United States.

We the people get to decide every 4 years who gets to be President- if we don't believe that they have provided us enough information, then we can choose not to vote for them.

what relevance are his college transcripts now that he's finishing-up his 2nd-term?

That's why I said he should have released any and all information asked of him in a timely manner, instead of delaying and being arrogant. I think all publicly elected officials should have to do this. Transparency!! Unless they have something to hide, then this shouldn't even be an issue!

 

[Syriusly]

What exactly is it that you would like to learn from his school records?

If he wants to quiet the theories out there, he would just release them, all of them. What's the big deal?

Really- why would he?

The only ones who want to see these documents are people who are hoping to find dirt.

No one else cares.

And the ones that want to find dirt, will never be satisfied if Obama releases additional documents- they will claim that they are forged, or that there is a cover up or whatever.

We have seen this with the birth certificate- even with the STate of Hawaii saying that he was born in Hawaii, they make up elaborate fictions on how we can't trust the State of Hawaii......

So once again- why should President Obama act any differently than every previous President- and provide documents that no previous President has provided.

What is all the fuss? He could release his papers and then whenever someone says something, he can tell them to eff off.

Why should he have to comply with the demands of conspiracy nuts?
To prove he wasn't born in Kenya? Their demands never end you know

Too bad. He can release the paperwork he has, and if that isn't good enough, then oh well, but he should release any requested paperwork that is reasonable to request (not his grades in kindergarten or anything ridiculous like that). His arrogance is NOT a good enough reason to refuse.

What to you makes kindergarten ridiculous- and his other school records not?

Anyway- you will no more see them than you got to see Bush's or Clinton's school records.

And Obama is no more obligated to provide you with anything, than Bush was to officially deny that he used cocaine.

The only sense that we are the employers of the President is that we cast our votes- and that has been accomplished.

The President presented more documentation to Birthers- and Birthers of course immediately declared them forgeries- he should never humor the fools again.

Actually President Obama is acting like every previous President and ignoring the demands of a trivially small minority conspiracy theorists.

Good for him.

They should all be required to release all of their records. This is just one step in the right direction of keeping them honest, or at least as honest as we possibly can. There is NO SUCH THING as an honest politician. They need to be watched and checked on constantly.
