Hahaha...

Chris Matthews’ and GOP Rep. Blake Farenthold’s fight on Obamacare derails into a shoutfest over Obama’s eligibility.

The congressman is a goofball...but it was pretty funny watching Matthews get frustrated. What an ass!

Matthews actually caught a smile a few times, he might be human.

Official Report of Kenya's National Assembly (http://72.52.208.92/~gbpprorg/obama/5.11.08A.pdf)


"On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You have heard none other than the Leader of Government Business acknowledge that because of Obama's win in the United States of America (USA), the House is crippled. Could we allow him to move a Motion for Adjournment so that we could also continue the celebrations of having a Kenyan ruling the USA? I humbly request!"


"Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the President-elect, Mr. Obama, is a son of the soil of this country. Every other country in this continent is celebrating the Obama win. It is only proper and fitting that the country which he originates from should show the same excitement, pomp and colour. I, therefore, seek leave of the House that we adjourn to discuss the issue. "


"Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, while thanking you for that Communication from the Chair, I want to join the rest of the world and, indeed, all of us - and it is understandable that the rest of African Continent and the whole world is celebrating a dawn of a new era--- As we congratulate the American people and more, specifically, Senator Barrack Obama who is now President-elect, it is important to reflect on the journey that he has travelled so far. When countries get their foreign policy right, a lot of hope can ensue. What I have in mind is the famous Kennedy airlifts of the 1960s when many Kenyans were, due the friendship with the then Government and the late Tom Joseph Mboya, given the opportunity to travel to the United States of America as a result of which we now have an African American of Kenyan origin being President-elect."

Legitimately elected is still synonymous with 'de facto'. Just because a bunch of people get together and decide between them by quasi-mathematical means who amongst them is going to volunteer himself into office has absolutely no bearing on whether this individual represents ME in that office.

Whether I am represented or not comes down to a decision on my part and until that decision is made there is only a de facto office holder.
