The Baltimore Orioles Attempt To Distance Themselves From Their Kooky DH

By on December 8, 2010 at 4:00 pm

"Try beaming things into my brain all you want, aliens. I have a tin foil helmet on under this helmet."

It would surprise me greatly if most of you haven’t already heard about the, um, interesting comments Luke Scott made yesterday during MLB’s Winter Meetings regarding our Commander-in-Chief, but just in case, here they are:

“Obama … hmm … Obama does not represent America. Nor does he represent anything what our forefathers stood for … He was not born here. That’s my belief. I was born here. If someone accuses me of not being born here, I can go — within 10 minutes — to my filing cabinet and I can pick up my real birth certificate and I can go, “See? Look! Here it is.”

So, yeah. Anyhoo, it didn’t take long for the Baltimore Orioles organization to issue a statement whose sole purpose is to express that they do not want to get involved in a Political Flame War, unlike Luke Scott, the kind of guy that it wouldn’t come as a shock if it were discovered that his home address is a one-bedroom shack somewhere in the Maryland wilderness.

The statement (via Hardball Talk):

“Luke Scott’s comments do not reflect the opinion of the Baltimore Orioles organization. The fact is that Barack Obama is our President, duly elected by the people of the United States. End of story.”

Okey dokey. I guess I know where the Orioles stand now. The only thing that would have made that statement clearer is if the Orioles had asked Lee Greenwood to deliver it.

The Orioles issue a statement about Luke Scott being a wacko birther [Hardball Talk]

    At least he is not hiding behind the KKK hood that I’m sure he has as a honorary member of that most notable group. He is ignorant and disrespectful and should be called on it. Just a dumb jock with an echo chamber for brains.

    • Colin says:

      Ken, why accuse him of being a member of KKK? Questioning people is not racist. He has the right to question Obama and disagree with him. Nothing at all wrong with it. And you have the right to disagree with him. But until he comes out and says “that spear chucker” is a lousy President, or something else as vile (or more vile), then it’s not racist.

      • Kevin says:

        Luke Scott is disrespectful for his remarks The remark of handing out free stuff is a racist remark in the the context that he used it. I will never cheer for him and the Orioles should take a stand and show him they are in the sports and entertainment and not politics. He forgot who signs his check. He was provided with a talent to play baseball he needs to stay with playing baseball.Colin if you agree with his comments then you share his thoughts

      • keith says:

        ken,did you know that a certificate of live birth is not allowed in the little league world series. i called the hawaii little league this year and they told me it is not an acceptable form for “proof of residence”. but you can run for president.

        • Daniel says:

          It’s hard for me to believe he’s racist, when his best friend on the team (and not superficially at all) is Felix Pie. They do so much together.

        • Wayne says:

          A certificate of live birth is what a birth certificate is officially titled in many states including California – the most populous state in the USA. It states that a human was born at a certain place and time. It is not acceptable for Hawaii Little League or any Little League as proof of residency because it does not provide any proof of where the youngster currently lives. Therefore it is not adequate proof that the youngster can play for a local team. It is acceptable proof of the child’s age and where the child was born. Of course where the child was born is irrelevant to Little League. Little League only wants to know the child’s age and where he or she currently resides.

    • Billy says:

      The man just spoke his opinion, get over yourselves. If the MAN is not an American citizen, he cannot hold the chair. If he is, then so be it. Don’t chastise a man for speaking his mind. The words I’ve read in this forum describe him as…disrespectful, racist, arrogant and idiot. I personally think all of us have a little of each in us, and Luke Scott was in the position to speak his mind. He did so, and kudos to him.

      • Disgustion says:

        Wow… You can go on line at http://static.politifact.com.s3.amazonaws.com/graphics/birthCertObama.jpg

        Really. Can we just understand that anyone questioning his birth place is a racist who can’t believe this country could actually elect a minority. Let alone a Black Man.

        Would McCain/Palin been a better choice simply because they’re white. Those two can barely stand to be asked a question if they don’t know the answer. Their responses are either insipid or angry.

        If President Obama is a Kenyan than I say God Bless Kenya for their best export to date.

        Hate and Fear is how the Republicans win elections and then govern for the top 1%. They’ll make you racists fear him through Fox Noise and Druggy Limbaugh, then ask you to please not hurt him although you must hate him. Some will try to hurt him though because he’s soooooo anti-American as they inscribe, and even though they asked you not to hurt him they just couldn’t help themselves.

        God Bless the Kenyan Commander-In-Chief.

        Freaks…

        • Craig says:

          Who cares where Hussein Obama was born. He is a terrible president. The worst EVER. He is half WHITE. and half black. But Disgustion you don’t mention that. Do you think Farrakan or Sharpton are racist? And the guys who Obama hung around? They speak their mind and I am sure you agree, but because a white guy speaks his mind? Give it up. you are as racist as anyone….

          • Barloot says:

            Obama is trying to make the country takes it’s meds, you pay the lowest amount of tax in the western world and whine about every nickel of it. Everything you use is made somewhere else and the rich tell you it’s democrat that are at fault. Before you start going nuts where was your comuter made? your nikes, your cell, and the gas in your car? But it’s all Obama’s fault right?

          • Disgustion says:

            Just making fun of the freaky haters on this post. Don’t take me too seriously you racist hater.

        • DW says:

          I have no doubt that he probably wasn’t born in the USA. He has never produced that actual copy of the original birth certificate. His grandmother and aunt both attested to witnessing his birth in Kenya. I love how you libs pin anybody who doesn’t believe Obama as racists. Get a life!

          Obama is nothing more than a puppet hand chosen by the elite richest bankers of the world who pull the strings. Bush was a puppet too, and most presidents going back to the early 1900′s. Obama was billed as the hope and change president, but what has changed? Absolutely nothing, except more government control and loss of more freedom. Kennedy was supposed to be the best puppet that the elitests picked due to his father’s dirty connections. But it turns out he signed an order to take away the Federal Reserve’s power and was murdered later that year. Point is: go against the people who put you in power and pay the ultimate price with you life.

    • John says:

      Ken, Luke Scott has a right express his opinion and whether or not he is a professional ball player has nothing to do with the matter. Besides, if Obama doesn’t have anything to hide, why has he spent MILLIONS of dollars to keep his records–from kindergarten to now–locked away from public scruntiny? We aren’t asking him to post it on his forehead–just show us a REAL birth certificate! What’s so hard about that?

      • Mackie says:

        …..the people that are crying about where’s President Obama’s birth certificate… where’s bush’s birth and every other president’s birth certificate’s….oh that’s right President Obama is black….gotcha….hipocites

      • Mike says:

        Hey, you’re late for your Klan meeting big boy.

    • earl says:

      just because obama is incompetent to be in the white house doesn’t mean one is a racist. The press and media didn’t do their homework in getting the facts on obama because they would be called racist.
      If he had a real birth certificate, why doesn’t he produce it and shut us up?

      • Lance says:

        I fail to see how he is incompetent? Has has not had a full term under his belt but the economy is in a much better place then when he took office. He inherited the presidency after arguably the worst president in history took a record surplus to a record deficit, a war in Iraq and Afghanistan both based off lies and the audacity to feel like he didn’t have to answer for any of it. As far as the press and the media goes, they dont have to get the facts. The republications i’m sure would be able to gather the facts and present those if he was not a citizen. Palin did not hesitate to paint him as socialist who buddied with terrorists everytime she had a chance. How about the other idiots on Fox? Are we to believe that if Beck or Hannity had proof that President Obama was not a US citizen that they would sweep it under the rug and ignore it. I think not.

    • terenceC says:

      Way to go Luke Scott. Always good to see an athlete drop the hackneyed cliches and one liners and actually say something. You also helped me finish 2nd in fantasy baseball this year. Remember we gotta get that devil out of office. Show us the way LS!!!!!

    • james says:

      I’m tired of all the obama zombies following their messiah so blindly. I don’t care where he was born, the man is an idiot. Never had a real job or had to take care of other people. Had a horrible voting record as a Senator and is just now realizing that he has to represent all of Americans and not just the 47% of Americans that don’t pay taxes. So I say that if you were against Bush or against Fox News then YOU are the RACISTS and BIGOTS. You don’t want a job. You just want your monthly Dumicrat check (welfare). And then complain that the Tea Party is stupid and racist when they have a much higher education level then the dummicrats. Do you think being minority makes you enlightened? Get a job and start paying higher taxes and I bet you won’t like Hussein when he’s over there bowing to every Tom, Dick, and Harry. We gave him a chance and he blew it.

  2. Colin says:

    I am not a birther, but the fact is, what is so wrong with questioning the fact that the President refuses to go to HIS cabinet and get his real birth certificate out and show us and shut everybody up? I can probably do it quicker than Luke Scott. So the fact that anybody has any questions still does not surprise me. But hey, go ahead and skewer the guy for believing in the Constitution and the fact that you have to be a natural born citizen to be the President. All I want is for Barry to go to his cabinet and prove it and put it to rest. Because if he can’t, then he legally cannot be the duly elected President, as the Orioles referred to Barry.

    • Lance says:

      Why not read the article? It says in black and white that President Obama has supplied it. Also consider this. Our president shouldn’t have to provide his birth certificate each and every time some idiot asks him for it. He is busy trying to run a country if you hadn’t noticed. What this comes down to is lact of respect. This guy is a racist, pure and simple. He doesn’t respect any minority and thats evident by his words.

      • John says:

        Lance, You are the dumb ass idiot! Nobody is asking Obama to show his birth certificate every time someone ask him to. All he has to do is show it once! His Certificate of Live Birth is not an original birth certificate. I or anybody else can go to Hawaii and get a Certificate of Live Birth, but that doesn’t mean I was born in Hawaii or the U.S. You need to use your tiny little brain and ask why Obama would even want to hide all his records from the day he was born to now! Can you think of a good reason? If so, let us know, PLEASE!!

        • Wayne says:

          A certificate of live birth is what a birth ceritifcate is called in many states including California – the most populous state in the USA. If you never got sucha certificate when the child was born or if you want to get additional copies, you can order another certificate of live birth at anytime you would like. A person who was not born in the state cannot get a certificate of live birth from the state. The ceritifcate states where the child was born, what date and time, parents, doctor, hospital etc.

          If you were not born in Hawaii, you cannot get a certificate of live birth from Hawaii stating that you were born alive in Hawaii. You can get one that states that Obama was born there because he was.

        • Lance says:

          John, can you locate your actual original birth certificate? You probably can’t. If you go to the local goverment office they can provide you with a “copy” of it but it wont be the original. DId you get that? Should I slow down? To answer your question about President Obama hiding it from the day he was born. Not sure that was sumething he really thought about as a newborn, infant, toddler, etc. Let me ask you a question. If he could not provide a birth certificate, how do you expect that he was able to get elected as the President of the United States with no one in the GOP vettng the info? Why would they not unturn every stone and look in every dark corner to find something that would discredit him as a candidate? They would and have not stop at anything to stay in power. Thats evident in everything that they do. But back to the subject at hand. You can disagree with the president on the decisions that he makes (this may be a hard lesson for you to learn but he is not the sole decision maker for the country. He shares that with the House and the Senate). This ball player is drinking the koolaid of the far right conservatives and your post showing that you drinking from that same jar of hatred and stupidity.

    • Jerry says:

      “The President refuses to go to HIS cabinet and get his real birth certificate.” What are you talking about, HE HAS! Just because you refuse to believe it’s real ain’t his problem. It’s your problem. He could have the damn thing stuck to his forehead and you’d still refuse to believe. It’s like talking to a brick wall with you idiots. The President has a lot more serious things to worry abut than you wack jobs.

  3. Lance says:

    If they really want to distance themselves, they should release him. If not, they are no better than he is.

  4. Joe Salemi says:

    Obviously Luke Scott (never heard of him before btw) is a blithering IDIOT, He is apparently a RACIST and totally BIGOTED idiot at that.

  5. Patrick says:

    Another YAHOO, whose only fame or ability is hitting a ball coming at his head that apparently found its mark a few times. Here is a hot flash, John McCain was the one Not born in the USA…it was Panama…not a State or even in the Continental USA…

  6. Kevin says:

    Scott needs to concentrate on hitting the baseball or taking ground balls at first base who in the hell voted him spokes person of World Affairs

  7. Ben McEachin says:

    I think Luke Scott is an idiot. Are saying that Sarah Palin is not an American because she was born in Alaska. Are you saying that your forebearers from European countries did not become American after their arrival from Ellis Island and tooke the oath of citizenship. I believe in this country and our government. If there was any hint that President Obama was not an American citizen he would never have had the opportunity to run for the highest office in “Our” country. I think you need to put your personal feeling aside and respect the process our country goes through to elect our politicans.

  8. Barrak Obama says:

    I was born in Kenya

    That,s Kenya, Hawaii ahhahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
    Im the president and hes just a stoopid baseball player hahahahahahahahahahahaha

  9. bill lenters says:

    why publish the uneducated meanderings of a marginally sane goofball ball player whose only claim to respectability is an ability to play baseball?

  10. Carlos M Torres says:

    He got it backwards, John Mcain was the one, born outside the U.S.-JohnMcain is a hispanic ,Panama is not part of the USA, send him back.

  11. Carlos M Torres says:

    Can’t wait to see you this summer you ding-bat.

  12. Jesse says:

    What a wacko…

  13. P Farmer says:

    I totally agree with Luke Scott!

  14. Gabriel says:

    What an idiot! Does he really believe the conspiracy theorists? Ridiculous…I mean he’s a grown man. I’m sure he has more common sense than that…but I guess not.

  15. maddog says:

    Another racist, the only reason dumbo is asking is because he’s black. I’m so tired of hearing people making stupid remarks, the white vote put him in office idiot. I pray he doesn’t run for re election and u get another Bush in office so we can be in a war with another country. Put ur bat down and sign up for the military hero.

  16. Dr. J says:

    Just how many times has this player been hit in the head by line drives? Got be lots to say something that stupid. Obama’s birth certificate is on line just Google it. Also, the Republican Governor of HI has also certified that President Obama was born in HI. Has anyone who actually believes Obama was not born in HI ever stopped to figure out what would have had to occur to pull this type or deception over on everyone?
    So a mixed race male baby was born in Kenya and the people in Kenya must have had a crystal ball to foresee that of all the black and or mixed race males born in Kenya in 1961 this one baby would be the first black President of the US. Only he was picked and they called the Drs., nurses, hospital administrators in HI at the Kapi’olani hospital as well as the HI hall of records, the local paper and all those folks decided to go along with this coverup to hide the fact that Obama was really born in Kenya.
    Now if you really believe that then you are as stupid as this ball player. He should take some of the money he being payed to play and go get some professional help.
    BTW, I was born in HI at the very same hospital in 1941 and my birth certificate reads the same as Obamas. Certification of Live Birth because that is the way Hawaiian birth certificates read back then.

  17. bob gill says:

    Luke Scott is an idiot. Got hit in the head to many times . Stupid people believe stupid lies.

  18. Bob G. says:

    Another racist, He should just say it stop being a punk!!

  19. cookie says:

    Obama’s own Grandmother said he was born in Kenya. When a President’s birth location is questioned someone a physician, nurse, orderly would come forward and report they remember that day. That has not happened. Why was Michelle Obama disbarred.

    • Terry E. says:

      The First Lafy was not disbarred She voluntarily requested an Inactive Status. To do so she had to petition the courts. When an Inactive Status was approved, it came in the form of a court order as all such requests did prior to the year 2000. Mrs Obama was not disbarred nor did she have any disciplinary actions against her. Do not take someones word as the truth, research it for yourself (like I did) before you continue spreading false information.

  20. Riff says:

    It’s amazing…this guy questions a black president so he is a racist? It’s not like he created this whole birth certificate controversy, he just gave his opinion on it. O.k….so maybe a ball player shouldn’t be out there giving his opinion on the Presidency, but the President shouldn’t be wasting our time talking about sports either. Just because we may not agree with exactly what this man said, this is the U.S.A….so he has EVERY right to say it!

  21. yankees27 says:

    It’s strange that none of the birthers have ever questioned Senator John McCain’s birthplace. Because that is what initiated the whole birther argument in the first place. McCain was born in the Panama Canal zone, so legally he is Panamanian. When this info was introduced in 2008, it was quickly denounced by the democratic party. Someone in the republican party decided they wanted to play the “birth” game, and it quickly became a platform for the idiots like Orly Tates and followers like Luke Scott, who I guess want to “take back America” from the big black bogeyman Obama.

    • John says:

      yankees27, Let us put an end to your and a few other people’s stupidity. McCain was born in Panama, but he was born to parents who were American Citizens and serving in the military on territory controlled by the U.S.–we controlled the Canal until fruit cake Democrats gave it back to Panama–therefore he is legally a U.S. citizen. And by the way, any self respecting Yankee fan wouldn’t identify himself as a REAL YANKEE FAN without capitalizing the letter ( Y ).

  22. Terry McLoughlin..USMC says:

    Birther…IF Mr.Obama has a LONG FORM birth certificate …….SHOW IT!!
    Having spent over 1 million hiding his PAST…seems like GUILTY to me!

    All service men must show a Long Form Birth Certificate….So WHY can’t this acting president …DO THE SAME…….WHY…because..HE CAN’T !!

    In God WE Trust….One Nation Under God

    • Terry E. says:

      All service men do not have to how a long form birth certificate. A Certificate of Live Birth is acceptable to show citizenship and place of birth.

  23. Jim says:

    It’s amazing that whenever someone questions or doubts The Messiah, that person is automatically called a ‘racist!’ Congrats to Scott for speaking his mind. I don’t care if The One is green or purple; that someone such as Luke Scott exercises his right to free speach in questioning the schemes of Barry should be celebrated, not excoriated. Free speech, remember?

    Funny how the Dems always say they are FOR the ‘Big Tent,’ Why-can’t-we-all-just-get-along, bipartisanship thing, but when someone voices a different opinion to that of their failed leaders and policies, that person is a mean-spirited racist!! Ha ha ha. How are Barry and the rest of your favorite Dems doing these days, eh??! Stick in the fork, they’re DONE!!!!!

    Guess that means I’M a racist, too :)

    No, just a person who clearly understands a failed political party versus a good, resurgent one!

  24. gary j says:

    Luke Scott is a Patriot…says it like it is…let see the certificate once and for ALL Mr. President! Put up and we will shut up…nuff said!

  25. Carlton Smith says:

    Scott has a right to exercise his political opinion in America, Its call freedom of speech. However, he believes like many other folks in America, who believe that “if he doesnt look like me, talk like me, eat what I eat, then he is not worthy. The fact is, is that he is the president, and until they determine that he wasnt born here, he will continue to be the president.

    And for Scott, he should continue to play baseball as his “Brain”, was programmed for him to do, thereby keeping his foot on the ground and not placing it in his mouth.

    • Bill Stotts says:

      So i take it your not a ball player. what do you do for a living that gives you the right to put your foot in your mouth about something a ball player said.
      and maybe your a racist-against whites or ball players, every thing can go both ways.

  26. Baseball Gal says:

    Why is Luke Scott not allowed to have his own opinion (right or wrong)? Why is he called a racist for questioning a subject that has been brought up MANY times? I happen to KNOW Luke Scott personally and he is a warm, caring, loving, generous human being. Just because his opinion is different than yours, does NOT make him a racist. You assume he is a racist because his opinion is different than yours just shows how small-minded you folks really are.

    So in your minds, I guess the journalists who originally questioned where Obama was born are all racists too, huh?

    WOW, bright group of folks you all are

  27. Mike Stusiak says:

    Everyone has the right to open their mouth and look stupid.

  28. Neal says:

    Good for you Luke Scott! In the headline he is referred to as kooky? why, because he dares to question “The Savior” Barack Obama? Why is that any more kooky than Obama bowing to foreign presidents/kings and sucking up to our enemies, while turning his back on our friends. I think Luke Scott represents the majority of the people in this country and it is too bad that we are at the point where. I am glad that there are people like Luke who are not afraid to voice their opinions against Obama. It is disgusting to me that Obama and his followers can say whatever they want without any problem, but when people speak out against him THEY are criticized and made to seem like THEY are the crazy ones. I guess freedom of speech only applies if you are speaking out in favor of the dicatator…I mean president. We need more celebrities like Mr. Scott out there to speak this kind of truth and maybe there will still be some hope left for this country

  29. Roger K says:

    Just show the real first birth certificate i.e. when he was minutes of being born.

  30. Neal says:

    Sorry..forgot to finish a sentence above..

  31. DWS says:

    Once again, the Orioles finished in last place in their division. You would think Mr. Scott would have more important things on his mind than the President’s birth certificate. Just hit the ball, Luke!!

    • Baseball Gal says:

      Hey DWS – maybe you should check some stats – he led the team in HR’s, Slugging Percentage, had the third highest batting average, drew the second most walks, second in RBI’s, and had the most doubles.

  32. don nelson says:

    the birthcertificate is not as important as the rest of his records.
    for example,his medical,his college, and his passport records that he has spent millions on to keep out of the transparency thing he promised to get elected!

  33. bryan says:

    Luke scott I challenge your ass to a ufc fight stfu!

  34. okie dipstick says:

    What do you bet he is tuned to Faux News (when he’s not watching Palin’s Alaska). Yes, Luke (if that is your “real” name), there is also a one-world government Obama is fronting; oh, & he’s also Muslim, Communist-Socialist that personally oversees “death panelsl” in the new Healthcare Law. C’mon, Luke, keep up with the latest – it’s all on FOX & Limbaugh & Beck. The reason he was in Afghanistan this week was to hang with his Taliban buddies.

    Mr. Scott, it is a good thing you can play baseball – & I’m hoping you are saving some of that ridiculous roid $, cause I’m thinking a real job where you have to think for a living might come a little hard for ya when you wash up….

  35. bryan says:

    all you care about is your taxes I bet

  36. Bimsy says:

    The article is wrong about Obama provintg a birth certificate. He provided a certificate of Live Birth which is different. Look it up before you start using a 2 paragraph article on yardbarker.com as your facts.

    The president cannot help the fact that his skin is black, wherever he was born he was born black. Every person that disagrees with him or his politics is not a racist. People that blurt out the racist remark everytime he is criticized sound like idiots with no fact or basis for their comments. If you are going to speak, know your facts and be somewhat educated on a topic before you blather on about nothing with no facts.

    Ben know the law before you ramble, law says you have to be born in the US. Not just a citizen you moron.

    This topic would go away if one single time a Birth Certificate would be shown by BO. Its that simple. Agreed Colin.

  37. Sol says:

    Whatever happened to Freedom of Speech? Luke Scott has every right to voice his opinion of any political figure including the President. Political speech is a protected right in the US Constitution. Enough doubt about Obama’s country of birth has been documented through his own family to require a complete investigation of the matter. It is my understanding that Obama’s mother could have filed for a birth certificate when she returned to Hawai’i from overseas. There needs to be a Certificate of Live Birth signed by the delivery physician to close the matter for good. If Obama was indeed born in the US that should not be too difficult to produce. If he was born in Kenya as his Kenyan family claims, then it would pose a problem. But for the sake of argument let’s say he wasn’t born in the U.S. That, my friends, would mean that he knowingly has perpetrated the greatest hoax in history on the American voting public. If that is the case, then he should be promptly impeached, removed from office, sentenced, and start doing time like you and I would if we had done anything remotely similar.

  38. tom says:

    you birthers are nuts and i am just embarrassed to share a nationality with you. any wonder half the developed world has a better intelligence index than we do? turn off your tvs, stop listening to your radios and lift up your heads. look! there is an actual world out here! a place where there are actual truths to find out for yourselves.

  39. Bimsy says:

    A certificate of Live Birth can be obtained after birth. Is not the same. Facts people. Stop blathering, i grow tired reading meaningless factless statments. Why is it liberals expect any word they speak to be suddenly bronzed as fact because it makes them feel good to say it?

  40. Bimsy says:

    Should I not care about taxes? 50% of my income goes to taxes. Seems like I outta care.

  41. Big Tex says:

    The prez has not revealed his birth certificate. It has been sealed and there has been no order to open the seal. If you claim otherwise, please provide link , so we can ALL see it…
    thanks.

  42. Big Tex says:

    I know one thing, I am Hispanic, and if we had a Liberal Hispanic President, (thank God we dont) then I would be the first to denounce him. Skin color does not make a President. Its his policies and views… As long as a President shows Conservative values, he has my vote. Dont care if he is green, white, brown, black, or female…GOD BLESS AMERICA…even if Liberals dont believe in GOD…

    Jim said it best:
    It’s amazing that whenever someone questions or doubts The Messiah, that person is automatically called a ‘racist!’

    Luke Scott is far from a racist.
    Many, many Americans question Obama’s birthplace. That has to do with his parents and his parents residence at birth, not about skin color.

    Amazing how it’s ok for Democrats to ignore our constitution, but if someone even questions Obama, they get slammed and called names. Ridiculous!

    • Me says:

      Oh come on Ralph…get off your soapbox. This has nothing to with Democrats. This has everything to do with a man who feels it’s his right to say what he wants. Well guess what so can everyone else. Get over yourself you take yourself way to seriously.

  46. Me says:

    Just think people…you are all allowed to speak what is on your mind and about anyone you choose because of where you live today. Think about that the next time you feel it is your right to say hurtful or mean spirited words about anyone. If all of you here on this page can truly stand up and say without a doubt you are perfect…then I can take your works as facts. Those of you who call each other idiots….wow….that is what you all have become.

    If Obama was white, we would never have this discussion about his birth certificate. Sad, but true. The disinformation campaign against him fuels this idiotic controversy and the people that harp on it are those who want to believe he is not entitled to be the president. Get over it.

      Any facts to prove this?
      Stop blathering. If you want to debate bring some facts.

  48. Bill of Atl says:

    Well here we have another idiot on the block. The Supreme Court validated President Obama’s birth, the state of Hawaii validated his birth, and his birth certificate can be seen on line. So what else is needed. The GOP and the T-party have created an art for lying to your face in the presence of the truth and simply not believing a position or view point regardless of facts given to them. They take a position that they simply will not believe any view point that disagrees with theirs. End of story is their position. It’s called being dumb “A”.

    I can’t blame Luke Scott for his comments. Thats how the guy feels and he has the right to feel that way and speek his mind. I personally am not a fan of the current president as he can not seem to follow through with anything he claims he will do. Even simple things such as his meetings from a while back being aired on CSPAN. Naturally they weren’t and there was no good answer as to why. And as for the discussion he is currently undergoing with a committee of his to cut the national deficit by taking from Active Duty Military is absolutely absurd. Why not take money from all the high paid government fat cats like senators that don’t need or deserve the money as much as our men and women serving our country with honor. What about former presidents that still get paid for the rest of their lives that pay could be cut back too. If he follows through with that then I don’t see our military caring as much knowing he doesn’t care for them. My oppinion is he is a piss poor leader and does not deserve a re-election!

      WHAT YOU SAID HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE COMMENT MADE BY THE ATHLETE. NOT LIKING THE PRESIDENT POLICIES AND DISRESPECTING HIM ARE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS. MANY OF YOU ARE UNDER COVER RACIST AND IT SEEPS OUT WITH YOU COMMENTS LIKE THE CLAN YOU STAY HIDDEN HIS ONLY RESPECTABLY IGNORANCE IS THAT WE NOW KNOW WHO IS – A IGNORANT ATHLETE IN A CITY THAT DOES NOT PLAY , GET ALONG OR GO ALONG WITH SUCH IGNORANCE.

  50. DSK says:

    HE WILL NOT BE AN ORIOLE FOR LONG! AND I WILL MAKE SURE I BRING A SIGN AND BOO HIM EVERY CHANCE I GET. I AM A LIFE LONG ORIOLES FAN. I MAY NOT BE A FAN OF OBAMA BUT HE IS OUR PRESIDENT- AND HE (THE BALL PLAYER) SOUNDS LIKE AN IGNORANT BIGOT OUT THE CLOSET. NEXT YEAR SHORT OF A FULL COURT PUBLIC APOLOGY I WILL MAKE SURE WE GET THE BOO BIRDS GOING TO GET HIM OUT OF TOWN- EARLY!
