Huckabee Plays the Birther Card on Obama While Defending Romney on Tax Returns
This has to be one of the most pitiful things I've seen in a long time with someone coming to the defense of Mitt Romney and his refusal to release his tax returns. Apparently Mike Huckabee thinks Romney should show his when President Obama proves he's a United States citizen and that he didn't get "any loans as a foreign student."
I'd say HuckaJesus should be ashamed of himself for this birther nonsense, but apparently having any sense of shame, having any guilt about lying, spreading propaganda to line your pocket and going against the teachings of Christ who said it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to make it to heaven are not things that register in this "good Christian's" list of those that he needs to be following.
Here's more from Media Matters that flagged this one from Friday's The O'Reilly Factor -- Huckabee Wants To Know If Obama Got College Loans "As A Foreign Student":
During a Fox News appearance this evening, Mike Huckabee suggested that Mitt Romney, who has come under fire for refusing to immediately release his tax returns, respond by challenging President Obama to release his college application materials in order to "show whether he got any loans as a foreign student."
Speaking on The O'Reilly Factor, Huckabee said of Romney, "Let him make this challenge: 'I'll release my tax returns when Barack Obama releases his college transcripts and the copy of his admission records to show whether he got any loans as a foreign student. When he releases that, talk to me about my tax returns.'"
Go read the rest of the post from Media Matters above and transcript via their site below the fold.
O'REILLY: Because of the media, the perception is if you don't release [your tax returns], you're trying to hide something. Look, Romney doesn't want his tax returns in the hands of The New York Times because they're going to cherry-pick it and make him look like a greedhead and he doesn't want to give them any more ammo. You know what this is all about.
HUCKABEE: Absolutely. And the thing is you get zero credit from the media for releasing them and then you buy yourselves a lot of grief. The question is, why would you help load a gun that's pointed at your own head?
O'REILLY: Because the people, the folks, most of them, want you to. I think that's the answer to your question.
HUCKABEE: Well, but he has to forcefully tell it why he's not going to, why it's irrelevant, say, "Look, I've disclosed more than I need to." Let him make this challenge: "I'll release my tax returns when Barack Obama releases his college transcripts and the copy of his admission records to show whether he got any loans as a foreign student. When he releases that, talk to me about my tax returns."
for his tummy tuck. And that includes his state paid for insurance policy.
Good way of putting it.
But really, the source of this "transcripts" nonsense is not "Birtherism", it's "how did a black guy get into Harvard Law?"

Why would a working class guy getting a loan to go to Harvard be considered news worthy? Is the implication that some foreign power sponsored his college fund or something? Of course if Obama did release this stuff I can see the next thing would be something like:
"Romney should release his tax returns only after Obama publishes all his credit card records and his complete medical record including the video from his last colonoscopy."
It basically seems to be that there's the theory now that Obama's education was paid for by a secret foreign Muslim cabal who have plotted for him to become President since the 1960s. And I believe they already asked for Obama's medical records for some reason. I can't even remember what that made up controversy was about.
...a fair question.

When will government of the people, by the politicians, for the corporations perish from this Earth?
Not soon enough!
Pitiful truly is the word. It's 2012 and Huckabee's still talking about Obama being born in another country? Good grief...
Fox had on a round table where the discussion was:
"Can you believe how BLACK the president is? I mean, he's so BLACK. Why would real christians vote for a BLACK president?
I mean, Jesus was a W.A.S.P.!"
But it's the librul media that is the problem....
Wait... what?
Obama is a Muslim AND he's BLACK? The hell you say!
I always thought Jesus was born to poor undocumented migrant workers.
DERANGED! He needs to go back home and read his Bible....."All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye so to them; for this is the law and the prophets."
Matthew 7:1
“The greatest evildoers are those who don’t remember because they have never given thought to the matter, and, without remembrance, nothing can hold them back,”
We need to see many, many years back of Romney's tax returns to see just how much money he hid away without paying taxes on it. I think we will find that a majority of the Romney 1% in this country don't pay taxes at all.
Huckabee is the typical born again RACIST, hate monguering RESLUG. He is a washed up, really ignorant, Reslug that repeats Faux Noise lies to their sick party of hate.
Newton Leroy McPherson was adopted by his step father as a small child. His birth mother was a teen who married Newts father at age 16 (he was 19) They divorced and she married Gingrich, who adopted Newt.
Birth certificate please.........
Like these bozos have anything that means anything to say two Racist and a Liar supporting a Religion of Hate and Fear. The delusional appealing to the Brain Dead and Insecure, the Low Life White Trailer Trash, further proof that listening to Faux Noise males you STUPID, and being a Christian makes you Ignorant, Hateful,, Fearful, a Minister of Lies and Hate
Huckabee is just pathetic. He just shows why it was good that he didn't get elected president.
Huckabee is a fraud and morally bankrupt. He should be teaching/informing his flock instead of bullshitting them. Instead of trying to turn this into another bullcrap birther topic he should have said that Romney should release his tax return and tell the truth about them and explain the best he can and let the people decide if it matters. To turn this into birther bullshit says more about Huckabee than either Romney or Obama.
The good thing about this is that is just plays to the 20%er base and turns everybody else off.
"patriotic" sons' tax returns. Do any of them actually work? Wanna bet every one is a trust fund baby?

and where that money came from. Mitt is covering for his old man too.
Why won't this lousy BIRTHER issue just DIE & go away? IT WON'T GO AWAY BECAUSE IT's TRUE- BIRTHERS are smeared as kooks & RACISTS- but in fact 5 top Forensic Documenrt specialist (used in court to verify documents) have all declared the (PDF) birth certificate Obama released on April 27th to be a blatant FORGERY- GOOGLE "MARA ZEBEST" (who has written dozens of ADOBE software books) Hear her stake her reputation that the birth cerificate is an absolute FORGERY (a cut & paste composit that was created on a computer) Bottom line is "OBAMA is a FRAUD who has deceived America" Have you ever read one word about MARA or any other specialist or lawsuit in the newspaper? (of course you haven't) Have you ever wondered why? More than 20 lawsuits have been secretly dismissed in court about Obamas birth certificate & multiple SSN's used in real estate scams- recently (in the 9th circuit court) Judge Lamberth dismissed the lawsuit against his multiple SSN's saying "Obama probably obtained the SSN's illegally but his right to privacy trumps all" This means that Obama does not have to obey the same laws that you & I do- He is above the law-

I gotta bookmark that one for future use.
What is your conceptual, continuity?
Well, my top 5 forensic document specialists say it's real. so there.
And how do I know you're not an illegal document forger?
How do I know, that you're not from the planet Nibiru, destined to take over the Mayan calender?
And how do I know, that you're even real? You come off as other worldly. Tell me, how are the summers on Nibiru? do you use a lot of sun block there?

The issue won't die because freak-a-zoids like you won't let it...you KEEP bringing it back up, like a bad case of acid reflux. It is a non-issue, a fabrication created by the moronic Teabagger cabal to gin up some kind of outrage about the President. it has been refuted so many times now that even a 5th grader understands it's a non-issue. . . except the Teabaggers are NOT smarter than a 5th Grader, apparently.
Here's some advice, little one: slowly back away from the computer, unscrew your tin-foil hat, and go play with your toys. Leave the democracy to the adults, you'll only get it dirty if you keep messing with it.

for what I'm about 2 say, but I PRAY they find a way to cure Birther A.I.D.s (Acquired Immuno-Dumbasses Syndrome) and quarantine the racist hosts of it for a lifetime @ Guantanamo Bay ASAP instead of worrying about any other terminal illness; this madness is going to be the death of all thinking people, I swear....
President Obama is like the AHCA his administration miraculously passed: marginally helpful, efficient enough to be built upon, and will only become a uniform disaster if Republicans win 2012 & repeal it (with all the other good he did)!
huckabee should be asked how much his income
came from the sale of illegal drugs and human trafficking....
how much money does huckabee have hidden away overseas?

..racist bullshit from the white victimization network.
Since Romney is a tax-evading asshole, that means the Negro president must balance the weights by releasing even more documentation that proves he is a legitimate human-being.

What will he do now that Chuckie Norris dumped him for Newt? Speaking of ol' Chuckie, I think he should've worn a helmet during all that kick boxing nonsense. It's a shame to see such a young man suffering from severe brain injury like that! FREE BRADLEY MANNING!!!
Unfortunately, I had to suffer through this man's stint as governor for however many years. He deserves to be on this site for crooks and liars. He had a good buddy who ran a "faith-based" treatment center for adolescents (kinda reminds me of Marcus Bachman's gig in Minnesota.) Anyway, goood old gov. saw to it that this so-called "therapeutic ranch" got most of the Medicaid dollars in the state. I know this because I worked in mental health for over 30 years. Also, there was an expose written in a local paper. As a result, Mikey Boy got to ride around in this guy's private jet while he was running for president. One other little tidbit, when the legislature passed a law against smoking in public, i.e., restaurants, our illustrious gov. vetoed the bill. Any more questions?

Talk about bearing false witness... what an evil man this Huckabee is.
