correct in the sense that neither a spouse's or parent's citizenship affects a person's NBC status.

but i still contend, from my original post, that a branch of the birthers insist that obama is ineligible due to the fact that he had dual-citizenship. now that bachmann maintains dual-citizenship she is absolutely relevant in that debate.

I dont give a rats ass about them, you are the one that seems so preocuppied with them and want to turn everything into a birther issue.

I said you were being stupid for insisting against all common knowledge that this has "nothing to do with Birthism." Your repeated Birther arguments alone prove the assertion to be false.
Wrong, You better seek some medication for that short term memory loss of yours because I said this

And then you go on to sight court cases showing that Obama is qualified despite once holding dual citizen stats, so what exactly, does this change? Does Obama get special treatment and Bachmann doesnt?

YOU are the one who turned this into a birther issue, despite the fact that numerous presidents had dual citizen status, and her obtaining one doesnt change where she was born. Remember this posting?

YOU turned it into a birther movement and it again, has absolutely positively not a dam thing to do with it.

Whats this hangup you have with the birther movement that you want to turn everything into one, and then provide evidence that you are wrong. Thats a really odd way of having an adult conversation and I suggest a therapist might help you deal with that anxiety.

Your confusion is deeper than it appeared at first glance. We have always insisted dual citizenship means nothing. We still do.

We are merely enjoying the quandary this puts you Birthers in.

That's all.

That was a direct reference to the Birther issue... and as we saw, the Birthers even created a three brand new sock puppets just to Birf in this thread.

So, as I said... don't be stupid.
Saying Obama had dual citizenship status is a FACT, and that doesnt turn it into a birther issue because OTHER PRESIDENT ALSO held dual citizenship status. Looks like you are the oine being stupid

I'm always happy. And there is nothing about my present location that makes me unhappy...that's for sure. Doesn't get much better than Arizona....or America for the most part.

Still though, it's Switzerland. There or here? Pffffft....that's a no brainer.

Greatest country in the history of the world? Meh...i don't know about that. I don't buy it. It's a great country, but i won't get carried away.

No... you whined about leftists defending him for it. When have they ever defended him for it outside of the Birther issue?

It should be clear to you by now we are not the idiots you hoped when you introduced the issue. Why do you persist?

I dont give a rats ass what their arguments are, and since everyone of them have gone down in flames, I find you now pretending they hold relevance utterly embarassing for you.

Of course, you already knew this. But you were just being stupid.
Why, does this change Bachmanns location of birth? YOU SAID the birthermovement revolves around where someone was born.

Enjoy your toss, I warned you.
