1376: High Times

I had a problem with 1375 too so I'm assuming it's the same issue.

The reason Obama found the birth certificate thing ridiculous is because people forget that he had to go through a federal background check, as soon as he was a senator in fact. The process for becoming a federal employee, voted in or not, is pretty fucking vigorous. I am a student trainee at the VA and I had to fill out a 20 page background check which included me having to have 3 references as to the state of my character as well as every single address I lived at in the past 5 years. Since I went to undergrad within those five years, I had to include the addresses of when I was on campus, even if I switched rooms within the same damn quad I had to put in that address. I also had to give the name and phone number of someone who could verify that I lived there, and it could NOT be the same person.

Given that it is in the constitution that you have to be American born to be president, I can guarentee that his background was checked every which possible way. ESPECIALLY with his name. There are many people in Washington that would have jumped on the opportunity to disqualify him from the presidency.

Most people don't understand why it was so hard to show his long form birth certificate. According to Hawaiian law, he couldn't. He showed his certificate of live birth, which is what most people think of as a birth certificate. The long form one isn't his to show, it belongs to the state of Hawaii. He had to send his lawyer to Hawaii get a judge to allow him to release it to the public, and he only made an exception because he's the president.

The birth certificate unveiling was bothersome to me. It's fucked up that Obama had to even had to do this. This isn't something any other president has had to do. I don't blame a lot of white people for not seeing the bigger issue at play here. Anyways here is my take on it if you'd like to read further.

This episode confirms that there is never any insights to gain about politics from a man with pothead-voice.

I've been too high once, one firecracker, and I was fine so had another one. Worst trip of my life. Lesson learned, no more firecrackers for me.

It was hard to get this info out of her, but a few months ago my ex told me a major factor of our breaking up was because of one night of weed smoking. we got way way way too high- all of us- and I guess I was a little mumble-y/ charles manson like for her. I just got too high. Not great, but she turned out to be a bitch anyway...
